She unsheathed her sword from the hilt and aimed the sharp blade on the male's throat.
Her eyes were cold without emotion, but her hand shook violently as she pointed her sword against his Adam's apple
Jinwoo stood still as he kneels, unaffected by...
Jinwoo stares at the beautifully designed dagger in his hand before smiling widely.
'Today might not be a bad day.'
'Sung Jinwoo, hmm.....he's cute.'
"Ack! Cough! Cough!"
Jinwoo coughs out the blood from his mouth.
'I don't want to die! I don't want to die'
Sung Jinwoo's life scenario flashes right before his eyes as he lies on the altar on the pool of blood from his injuries. His mind is filled with fear and regret as his body aches from pain.
'Of course I'm not okay with this. Thanks? What a load of crap! He just used me to get out of here! How could he?!'
He gasped as his heartbeat began to beat faster and faster.
'I have a family too!'
His mind wanders to Jin-ah and his mom, who are still bedridden in the hospital. Tears flow out of his eyes like a river.
'I don't want to die either! I'm not relieved that I'm the only one who has to die! Who am I kidding?! I'm such a hypocrite! I don't want yhis to be the end.....'
The large Knight statue raises its humongous sword, ready to swing. Jinwoo's eyes are wide with fear and anguish with his breathing quicken, gasping for air.
'One more chance....if I could just have one more chance!'
And finally, the Knight took it last swing.
However......before it could reach his body. Time seems to froze in time.
*DING*
A blue screen appeared right before Jinwoo's eyes.

Flash of light begins to erupt. The dagger that was given by the hunter he had admired the most also glows brightly. The light had engulfed the whole room, blinding the darkness into light.
A ring also startle Soohyun from her daze as she sat on the park bench. She sighs and answers her call from Baek Yoonho.
"Hello?"
"Hunter Seo-yeon, we need your help. There's a report saying that a double dungeon had appeared in a D rank level gate."
"Double dungeon? I've never heard of that before. Send me the location right now."
She hung up and opened her notification. Her eyes widened when she saw the location of the gate.
'That's where!'
She immediately bolted out of her seat and ran as fast as she could. Sweat drops from her forehead to her chin.
'Please... be okay....Jinwoo.'
