Somewhere within Maldora Canyon...
"Where to now?" Sato held up a map in his hand as he searched for his next destination.
After the battle with the Gatekeeper, Sato and the rest had continued their exploration of the dungeon, [Temple of Vasiliás]. Along the way, they had met various kinds of monsters, not just the usual Dark Priests. There were Cursed beasts; which looked similar to bears but were more ferocious and had cracked eyes with one horn jutting out from their temple, Dark Knights who rode on deer-like creatures with a pair of terrifying antlers and horrendous aura, and dwarf-like enemies that were mindless and only knew how to attack.
Under the onslaught of the new types of monsters, the team moved forward albeit at a much slower pace than before. It took them over 4 hours before they managed to reach the next checkpoint which was another BOSS room.
