Minseong, Daesun, Daejoon and Eunkyung have entered the mirror world. It was pitch dark as they recognized their surroundings: they were in the middle of a huge desert. Only a few stars in the sky are shining their dim light, it's not helping much for their vision.

"Get ready with your weapons. I have a feeling they prepare a lot of things to make us busy," said Daesun.

The three other warriors are preparing their weapons. They're standing in a circle and are cautious about their surroundings. Slowly, they can see a group of people surrounding them, but it's not only human's shadow that they recognize, they are riding horses. Two steps in front of them, the two evil guardians standing with their weapons ready in their hands.

"Now all of you can't outnumber us," said the man in black cloak.

"So it's their purpose to bring us here. They're the ones who outnumber us now," said Minseong, "there are so many of them... twelve? And what are they? I have never seen them before."

Their opponents look like knights in black full armor riding their black horses. Even their horses have black armor around their body. The knights themselves bring a shining spear on their hand.

"This is not looking good," said Daejoon cautiously.

"Whatever they are, they might have a darkness element and we have no light guardian here," said Daesun, "try to stay close to each other while we are figuring out their weakness. Eunkyung noona..."

Even before Daesun finished his words, Eunkyung screamed and threw her javelin to the nearest dark knight: it stabs to the ground where the head of the horse was a few seconds ago before it ducks away. It looks like a sign of war, so all the horses neigh angrily and they charged towards the guardians. The two evil guardians jump out of the circle.

"I'll go after them!" decided Minseong and a second later, he jumps away too.

Daesun has no chance to reply to Minseong, he wishes Minseong wouldn't go alone but he also doesn't want the evil guardian to run away, he raised up his bow instead to raise up the sand behind the knights and aim it to the back of some black knights. The sand buried some knights and their horses are having a hard time. But it won't last long, Daesun thought, we must get this chance to destroy some of the other knights. Daejoon, in Daesun's other side, raising up his sword towards four other knights, creating an invisible wave in the air which make the knights' movement getting slow as if someone press on slow button on a video to them. Daesun's eyes widened as he witnessed how powerful Daejoon's time control ability and guessing on what level is Daejoon now. Eunkyung, realizing the knights' slow movement, aims at one of the knights and throws her javelin there. Her javelin stabs right into the chest of the knight, he let out a long painful scream before falling from his horse. Eunkyung raises up her hand and her javelin flies back to her hand.
