In a labyrinth, there is basically a labyrinth nucleus, and the inside of the labyrinth is often filled with a high amount of magical power by the magical power leaking from the labyrinth nucleus.

And it is generally understood that the influence of the labyrinth nucleus makes it possible to mine magic stones in the labyrinth.

Long time ago, the labyrinths in the east were inhabited by demons attracted by the magical power, but nowadays, most of them have been hunted to extinction, and there is hardly any chance to see them.
