“Min-Jun! No!” Song-Chi screamed out in horror of seeing his best friend die. “He was supposed to get married today and go back to his child! F.u.c.k!” He starts crying and gritted his teeth, “You are going to pay bastard!” Song-Chi takes out his Jian[Chinese double-edged sword] and fuses his fire mana within the blade and fires out a flame blast at the 13-meter stone knight statue. The flames didn’t even damage the stone statue the slightest bit, there wasn’t even burnt marks on it.
‘What my attack did no damage! What Rank is this monster!? It is able to withstand my strongest attack. As a top C-Rank hunter my fire mana fused with my high-Rank sword should be even able to take out a B-Rank monster! Don’t tell me, t-this is a A-rank monster!’ Song-Chi started to sweat in fear, he knew it was hopeless to battle an A-rank monster, only an A-Rank or S-rank hunter can defeat an A-Rank monster.’
“E-everyone please stay calm,” Rin says with shaking eyes.
Ju-Hee gulps and shakes in fear, she almost puked after seeing the hunter’s head cut off by the knight statue which was now standing still after killing the hunter who was trying to escape the dungeon boss room. Fresh human blood leaked down its massive stone giant battle-ax, it showed no emotion whatsoever. No mercy or pity. It’s only command[Kill].
“F.u.c.k this! I am the fastest hunter in this squad! I can outrun these stupid statues!” A young male hunter around Sang-Je’s age quickly sprints forward, he was indeed really fast, he was running about [70 mph] faster than any human being, a gust of wind is seen behind him as he moves so fast he was able to dodge the giant knight statue’s battle-ax slashes, the dungeon door had a tiny crack opening, it was enough for the fast hunter to slip. “Tch good luck to all you losers,” He smirks, suddenly a giant stone spear goes right through his stomach and his body exploded. Blood and guts explode up into the air as the hunter’s stomach is impaled in half, his body looked barely recognizable, all mangled up and bloody.
“Another statue moved! Can this mean all these statues are alive!?” Rin starts sweating, even more, she knew this situation was dire and her life and everyone in the squad lives were on the line.
“F.U.C.K THIS!I AM RICH! MY PARENTS WILL GET ME OUT OF HERE!” Kim-Jing is scared and was about to cry he quickly calls his parents to bring in A-rank hunters, he saw the dreaded no bar signal on his iPhone, “F.U.C.K!” No one was able to call the Hunter Association, they were all trapped.
Sang-Je, Rias, and Rin tried to stop the hunter before from running but it was too late. All of them even used their abilities against the spearman statue, but none of their attacks inflicted any damage to the stone statue.
‘If we are all going to survive this dungeon than I have to use all of my power and team up with Rin and Rias,” Sang-Je could sense that these two girls were powerful C-Rank mages maybe even higher around B-Rank.
Ju-He pukes after seeing the hunter being impaled and killed by the giant stone spear.
Sang-Je rubs her back to assure her everything will be alright, but he knew that everyone’s fates were already sealed.
Jin-Woo remembers the commandments and he says, “Everyone if we follow the commandments we can survive, the first one was worship.
“What should do bow down?” said Song-Chi as he looks at Jin-Woo for answers.
Jin-Woo nodded his head, “We should worship to that one over there,” He points over at the biggest statue that looked like a bishop-king sitting on its throne.
Everyone bows down, except for Rias and Sang-Je.
“Why should we worship a god that doesn’t even exist?” Rias crosses her arms with a displeased look on her face. She knew that the ‘god’ in front of her was a false evil god.
“Just set aside your ego and bow!” Sang-Je screams out. He wanted everyone to stay alive. But for some reason, he didn’t want to bow down. It was like an insult to him for him to bow down to a statue and worship.
Rias sighed and bites her tongue/plump pink glossy lips, she goes down on her knees and bows down. She had actually listened to Sang-Je. After seeing him hold back some of the stone statues with his [Gates of Babylon] powers and protect her from being killed by the powerful high-ranked stone monsters she slightly respected Sang-Je. It was hard to gain trust with Rias, she was after all a stubborn girl like Rin who both hold themselves to a high standard.
Everyone bows down but Sang-Je.
“Brother please do it!” Jin-Woo shouts, he didn’t want to see his brother die.
“Hey look the statues are returning to the positions they were from before. Jin-Woo was right, this could be our only way out, Sang-Je and Jin-Woo I am sorry I doubted you both, it’s not always about rank. I like you want my everyone to get out of this dungeon, I have failed as a leader, my friend and now another hunter has died because of me,” Song-Chi gritted his teeth in shame and starts crying.
“Please Sang-Je, just for now bow down,” Ju-Hee mumbled with worry in her eyes.
The other healer with green eyes and black hair starts praying to the statue”Oh lord please spare our lives, we worship thee,” she knew the next part of the commandment was to praise the lord as she was praying to the biggest statue known as the ‘Lord’, it slowly stands up like a rising titan.
“Stop praying! You are praying to the wrong god!” Sang-Je thunders out.
“It is standing up!” Rin screams out with a shocked face.
The biggest stone statues’ eyes start to glow a demonic blood-red color and it even had a demonic razor-sharp menacing smile on its giant stone face, that made every hunter’s heart stop, all of their spines were tingling.
The Lord Statue stomps down its massive stone feet at the girl healer who had black hair and green eyes.
Sang-Je swiftly pushes her aside with his lighting-fast speed and saves her life.
“Sang-Je!” Screams out Rin, Rias, Jin-Woo, and Ju-Hee.
The giant stone foot now stomps down Sang-Jee, but not all the way!
The stone foot stood frozen mid-air! Sang-Je was seen holding up the massive stone foot with his two hands, blood dripped his golden glowing eyes. About 1,000 different kinds of weapons like swords, battle-axes, spears, hammers, and even shields held up the titan stone foot. With his powerful human strength that was in comparison with a [demi-god] and his Gates of Babylon, he was able to hold the Lord Statue foot up to stop it from crushing his body into a bloody pulp.
“A true king never bows down to anyone,” Sang-Je’s golden eyes glowed even brighter, his iris actually turned a reddish color like Gilgamesh from Fate. He knew that he would have to fight all stone statues if he stood a chance of surviving this double dungeon. ‘To be a hunter you must always hunt and you must know you will be hunted. I will do whatever it takes to protect my new family and everyone in this dungeon and to survive,’ He gritted his teeth in pain as more blood leaks down his face.
“Listen everyone! Run straight to the statues that have instruments! Those ones will not kill you!” Sang-Je screams out as he barely holds up the Lord’s stone foot, the statue looked pissed as hell that a mere mortal had stopped its killing-spree.
Everyone runs straight to the nearest statue that had an instrument. Even Rias and Rin listen to Sang-Je they knew their magic had no effect on the dungeon boss[The Lord] and they now had trusted Sang-Je as he saved them all from being stomped like bugs.
Sang-Je unleashes the full power of his [GOB] and [UBW], ‘This is it. Fight or die,’
