[Novel] The Mirror [Chapter 8 (4/6)]

But Daesun's archdemon just stabbed his trident towards Daesun's face. Daesun dodge, but not too fast, so it leaves a long scar on his cheek. 

"Daesun!" screamed Doyeon after he flew away from the archdemon's attack.

"Don't worry hyeong, it's just a little scar!"

Daejoon is jumping to attack Doyeon's archdemon with his sword - it almost hit it if the archdemon didn't ward it with its trident. 

"I'm getting sick of you," cursed Daesun.

He turned around and shot three arrows towards his archdemon. But he missed it as the archdemon is teleporting further. Daesun is screaming in frustration. Doyeon is searching through his spell book quickly.

"Let me try the earth element spell now... quicksand!"

Luckily, both his archdemon and Daejoon's archdemon are standing quite close to each other, so his spell hits them. The ground under them suddenly melted and sucked their feet slowly. Doyeon has a feeling that the archdemon might escape since they can teleport, but it seems like it's hard for them to teleport as they are being sucked inside. As they're being sucked until their waist, the situation is being a chaos: Daejoon's archdemon is teleporting to behind him, but Daejoon is fast and he turned around to swings his sword - it hit the archdemon's chest - but it also stabbed its trident towards Daejoon and it's being stabbed on his healthy arm; Doyeon push his archdemon's head with his staff while screaming "you die!" and after a while, his archdemon sinked and the ground turns to normal again, leaving no trace of a quicksand a minute ago; Daesun wards the archdemon's attack with his bow before thrusting its chest with an arrow - it creates smoke from the scar. Doyeon is checking on Daesun and sees his archdemon fall to the ground and change into an ash then quickly turns to Daejoon. Daejoon falls to the ground while holding his sword with his left arm to parry the archdemon's trident - but his arm is shaking because it's bleeding; Daesun aiming his arrow towards the archdemon.

"Time control!" Doyeon casts the time control one more time.

As the wave hit the archdemon, Daesun shot his arrow perfectly into his hand. It doesn't cause any injury but it sure makes the archdemon shocked and his trident got thrown away. Taking advantage of this moment, Doyeon throws three fireballs in consecutive directions and it makes the archdemon burn. It screams until it turns into ash. Daesun and Doyeon sit tiredly on the ground, then the three of them are looking at each other. Daejoon got injured on both of his arms; Doyeon got injured on his back; Daesun got a scratch on his left arm - this isn't much, but the scar on his right cheek looks deep and keeps on bleeding. 

"It's a tough one, finally," said Daejoon while laying on the ground.
