He Stood

RUMBLE!!!

The world shook.

At that moment, every lifeform native to the dungeon felt a single emotion in its highest, unadulterated form.

Primordial fear.

Tranced or otherwise, they could feel it in their bones.

They could feel the eminent clash between two unstoppable forces. Forces that may as well have been calamities of nature.

Unfortunately, they were not wrong.

The moment came sooner than Rui could have ever expected.

From within the depths of the core of the dungeon, he saw it.

He saw the objective of his operation.

He saw what he had dedicated the past two years to overcome.

He saw the Master-level beast that guarded the core of the Mellow Dungeon.

And it evoked a single emotion from within the depths of his heart.

Horror.

Pure, unadulterated horror.

It was a monster.

A true monster.
