"I don't think this maze will let us go that easily from what Myungwoo hyeong told us. Chimeras weren't a joke," said Minjoon, looking around cautiously.
"Oh what's that?" asked Joochan, rather sounding excited than scared, as he pointed forwards.
"Oh, not them AGAIN!" said Hyunki as he let out a long sigh.
From across the hall, eight cyclops are walking towards them. Still fresh in Hyunki and Minjoon's mind they got big trouble by the cyclops in the cave, even though there were only 3 of them last time, but this time, they got EIGHT and none of them is a young cyclops: all adult male cyclops with the size almost half of the hall's height, standing in front of them, and each of them are holding a big rock, behind them there are more rocks in store for them to throw.
"Damn it," cursed Minjoon, "Joochan hyeong, take cover while we finish up these creatures!"
"Take care and I'll try..."
Joochan has not yet finished his words, a rock being thrown at them and making Hyunki scream loudly as the three of them scatter.Â
"EYE! THE EYE!" Hyunki screamed loudly as he bravely ran towards the group of cyclops.
Hyunki has been training hard these days so his speed increases a lot: rocks are flying around him but he is faster than those rocks: some rocks hit each other and break into smaller stones and some fall to his head but he doesn't bother to keep running. As one of the cyclops takes another big rock, Hyunki jumps bravely and stabs his sword towards its eye. The cyclops screamed loudly as its eye was bleeding, and it fell to the ground - creating a local earthquake.
"One fall, more to go!"
"Wow, Hyunki, level up!" screamed Joochan as he saw a big number 5 on the top of Hyunki's head turn into 6 before it fades away.
