Bab 54: The Escape

"Now, let's get serious, Lee Seung!"

Seung found himself trapped inside a translucent, blue dome. He threw countless punches at it, but it remained unyielding. Frustration etched across his face as he gritted his teeth, pain radiating from his knuckles.

'I can't break it!' he thought, wincing.

Suddenly, the man bent and slammed his hand on the ground, chanting, "Complex Execution!"

Red fumes gushed from his shoulders down to his hand, spreading across the barren land. The towering rocks were dimly illuminated by the glow. Seung's eyes now emitted a faint purple light.

'The magic is closing in…' he thought, swallowing hard. His shoulders slumped as he contemplated the futility of his quest. Everything had gone wrong. He was trapped between dimensions, and the treasure he sought to revive his sister was said to turn people into monsters.
