[Novel] The Mirror [Chapter 6 (2/4)]

The griffin's claw grabs Daesun so tight and it starts wounding his waist. Eunkyung is screaming furiously as she can't touch Daesun to heal him. She aims at the griffin with her javelin.

"Noona, just throw it! It's okay, I won't die, I can hold it! I better fall down than stay here!"

"But... but Daesun..." Eunkyung is shaking her head, her eyes are teary.

All of a sudden, something falls to the ground from Daesun's body: a black stone as big as an adult's fist.

"Ah damn it... I haven't absorbed enough energy," said the man in black cloak, "but what I get is quite enough for me to have a fight with this untrained guardian."

And there is something changed inside Daesun's body - he doesn't feel as weak as before. As Eunkyung was still frozen on her spot and the man in black cloak focusing to check on his own body, Daesun re-appeared his bow and arrow. He aimed it at the griffin's body.

"At least I won't die in vain," he said, as he released his arrow right to where the heart of the griffin was located.

Eunkyung is screaming; the man in black cloak is looking up in shock; the griffin screaming loudly as the arrow hits its heart and the blood quickly bursting out, it lets go of Daesun from its claw. He can feel he fall fast... if it's the end of his life... at least he saved Eunkyung from the griffin. Goodbye... Eunkyung noona...
