The dim blue-lit hall was an enormous place with a lot of places to go to. It was more like a maze, filled with deadly traps and enormous monsters lurking around. Different types of magic users or more were located in the place, many of them looking for the exit. Experienced hunters and adventurous people were both mixed with newbies in that maze as they all acquired different achievements.
Kai followed the map heading to the northern side. As death traps were fueled across the hall, Kai was forced to change ways.
There were some shaky floors that didn't allow anyone to pass on. So Kai took some different routes but mostly headed to the northern side.
He exchanged his feet, while panting, sweat flowing down his face and exiting with his chin.
'This feels familiar!' Kai silently said as his mind played the day when he died. He thought of the tears and sweat he wasted during the day.

Time wasn't waiting; it was moving while he continued his journey too.
On his road, he encountered a rhinoceros that looked at him when he held his handbrake. It was located in one of the rooms that Kai thought was safe.
NOTIFICATION
-Rhinoceros-
'Whoa, a rhino. I never saw it live; it's a dream come true for sure.' Kai grinned as he saw the rhino after he held his brakes.
DEADLY POINTthe horn
WEAK POINT: stomach—it can be pierced by a sword, dagger, or sharp object.
'Really, I don't have that!' Kai silently said, his mind racing trying to find something to do as he saw its rage.
Within a second the rhinoceros had its eyes on Kai, and he was forced to reverse. Before he even turned, the rhinoceros started to heat its engine as it started moving its right leg while drifting on the ground like a wheel that keeps rolling when a race is about to start.
Before it finished the game of scratching the ground, Kai was already in the next right turn as he moved faster than a bee between the small walls.
The 2-meter corridor was seen like a narrow place as Kai rolled in it with a rhino on his tail but surely far, but not far enough.
He decreased his speed as he smelled the clear, safe space with no chills of tension, only the empty walls. He continued panting as he looked back.

∆ WARNING!! ∆
'Huh, another notification and warning? What is this about?' Kai asked as he was looking back, checking for the rhino.
His body took out the waste as he continued sweating. He then took a turn to look at the northern side; he blinked before turning, and his head landed on a bumpy-like place. When he reversed to check it, he saw a green, enormous giant with a big stomach where Kai landed and enjoyed the bouncing. His eyes widened as he gulped, his eyes glued on the green guy for a second. The green monster growled a bit, and got Kai's heart trembling.
NOTIFICATION
DEMON LV1
∆WARNING!!∆ - DEADLY.
DEADLY POINT—Axe and full body motion
WEAK POINT—behind the neck. A sword stab can kill it, and then a boulder hit can drain its strength.
The green monster had a round face with four teeth outside, two going up and two going down. Flat scary noses were the oxygen takers while they had their mouths closed. It stood like a human, with its 2 feet and two hands too, one empty while the other one clenched a big axe.
A scared guy like Kai wasn't able to carry himself away before he got killed. He fell and held the ground with his 1 hand for balance, and then he swiftly found a corner on the right side again since he was chased by a rhino from the left.
A flying axe almost cut his ankle as the green guy threw it for dinner hunting. It ran, shaking the walls as the heavy-duty green guy swiftly made his left and right feet exchange.
It made a fatal accident with the furious and flashy rhinoceros as the green monster reached the corner while the rhinoceros was also at the corner, making it a clash between two unfriendly guys.
The big guy took his axe, which was stuck in the wall since it missed Kai. The rhinoceros got cold feet and swiftly found a way out with its short tail between its legs.
The big guy stood up and threw its axe at the rhinoceros. The axe flew towards the fleeing rhino. Before it could even dodge, it was already cut like a fish into two pieces: the left and the right one.
The blood sprayed, while the green guy was filled with mischief, his big mouth curling with a bit of a grin.
Kai got saved by the rhino since it became dinner instead of him. Kai's heart pounded like a war drum, while breathing got hard. His nose was too small to exchange the gases the way his body wanted since he had a really big run for his life.
<35:00>
Kai slowly moved forward, finding obstacles that slowed him down for some time, but he continued his journey. When he was about to reach the finishing line, he found some scary obstacles, which were humans.
His heart raced, shivers rolling down his spine, with his mouth trembling in fear while his eyes widened as he saw 5 guys standing next to the door.
'Great, great, great, great, what should I do? They have completely seen me; there's no escape. What, should I run to the door? Maybe talk to them? Think, Kai, think.' Kai's head suffered mental trauma as he shook from fear while trying to process the right way to do it.
Suddenly, 1 of the guys, who had brown hair, wearing a black coat with black shoes, and blue eyes piercing through the air, flashed Kai.
A sudden gasp escaped Kai's lips as he failed to endure the tension from the guy.
The brown-haired guy said, "Ohh, what do we have here?" A sneer curled up his lips.
