CHAPTER 30: Left puzzled
----------------------------------------
“H-holy shit!” I see the black hole slowly moving towards us slowly absorbing everything leaving only pure darkness behind it. I look where I left Suyeon and I can see her body slowly being pulled towards the black hole.
“Shit! Seismic Step!!” I shouted my skill and I ran for her. As soon as I got close, I grab her by the waist. Even though I was quite a distance away, the pull from the black hole was too strong I started sliding towards the black ripple that’s the size of a basketball. “Argh!!”
Using all my strength, I slowly moved away from the black hole fighting its gravity pull. I kept inching towards the crumbled wall and once I got far enough where I can move freely, I threw Suyeon in my shoulder and looked back as it erased any trace of the hidden dungeon existence.
“W-what the fuck...” I watched it absorbed everything like a vacuum. Without any second thoughts, I ran towards the hallway that probably leads to another dead end. “Fuck.”
There’s a new path that might lead to a dead end. I whisper in my mind as I ran as fast as I can. I need to figure it out quick before this black hole reaches us.
“Seismic Step!” I sprinted towards the new path trying to get as far away as I can. Every time I glance back, I see nothing but darkness as the torches turn off after I pass them. But yet, I can shake off the nervousness as I hear it chip away everything from a distance bit by bit. The path itself was another dark tunnel. I would turn left, turn right, go up, go down, but it seems endless as I don’t see any source of light from a distance. I kept running up until I ran into a body of water.
“Ah damn," I mutter to myself as I run into a puddle that started to get waist deep. I hear a stream, most likely a waterfall somewhere but the place is so dark, I can only see what my tiny stalactite illuminate.
“Item bag.” I took out a couple more stalactites and threw them around. As I get a better vision, I was introduced to a familiar place. I remember scaling the wall to get above the waterfall. Hoping that this changed also, I looked around for any staircase that can lead up but nothing. It’s as if this place was untouched to the point that I even see the marks on the wall I made a year ago. Since my seismic step is still activated, I quickly jumped up and easily got above the waterfall without breaking a sweat.
"Well, this one is different," I whisper looking at a rotating lever above a grate, which probably stops the waterfall if I turn it. “No point on trying to turn off the water, it’s not going to stop that fucking thing
Without wasting any more time, I sprint down towards where I think the crab rat would be. As I got closer, the cave turned into a gigantic hallway and torches on the wall ignited as I pass them illuminating everything.
"So this one changed also," I whisper as I run through with ease. As soon as I see the end of the hallway, I see a giant double door closed shut. I didn't bother knocking to see if anyone's there and decided to just burst through using my pound skill, I punched the door blasting it off the hinges as it fell forward. I quickly ran in, seeing the place empty with no sign of the crab rat. I quickly turned around to look at the hallway I just came from and all I see is darkness, which doesn’t help ease, my nervousness. I tried to control my breathing and set Suyeon down. Running by myself would have been easy but carrying her, even though she looks like a stick, she still had a decent weight that took out my stamina faster than before.
“I don't hear the black hole anymore, but that doesn't mean it stopped coming my way," I say as I slowly turn back around and that's when I saw it from a distance above some steps. "Well, this is also new."
I walked towards the portal in the far end dragging Suyeon with me and placing her near the steps. The place looks like a giant hall where a king should be but the throne is replaced with the portal and stalactites hang off the ceiling like chandeliers to light the area. The surrounding walls have small holes where water is coming out off and onto a canal on the ground. There are bookshelves, tables, and chairs scattered around the area along with overgrowth of weed and vines running along the wall making it look like an old ruin.
"I need to find a way to turn this on," I whisper looking at the portal that looked like it hasn’t been used in ages. “No point on going crazy, think Yasu think.”
If I think about it, the crab rat might be a hidden boss and if I kill it, the portal will activate. Like the way the sky king dungeon works. I whisper in my mind as I look around hoping it will come out of the dark parts of the room. But nothing, all I was left with is with the eerie quietness of the place along with the sound of water hitting the ground. I walked around the portal hoping there's a switch and that's when I notice a stone slap on top a pedestal near the portal. As I approach it, the carved words lit up making it easier for me to read.
To open the portal, one must find the pillars of truth. Let the great truth enter the belly of your destiny. The crab and the rat will point the way to follow the stream for it will lead you to civilization.
"Fuck, another riddle," I whisper to myself. "This is the last thing I want."
Solving this might take hours and I don’t even know where the black hole is at or how far is it away from me. But I have no choice. I don’t want to wait around for a black hole to eat me alive.
“Ok, ok, calm down. Look for pillars. Find the pillars of truth." I say as I look around the room and there are no pillars what so ever. "Shit."
As I walk back down the steps, I notice the ground below has five holes with different shapes in the middle of the room. I see a square, triangle, thin rectangle, pentagon, and hexagon holes. The holes are in the middle of a circles slab that needs to be rotated to match the outer picture.
“This must be it!” I shout in excitement. "If I turn all these circles to match the design in the ground, this might open the portal!"
I started looking around the area and found one stick that has a square in the bottom. The handle looks like a fasces pillar, which is mainly used to describe a couple of things like strength, power, and authority back at earth. I quickly ran back to the middle and placed it down the correct shape. I turned it clockwise and the stone underneath turned with it making me rotate with the slab, as I stand right on top of it. I turned until it matched with the image on its frame and it clicked in place. The stick was ripped from my grasp as it got sucked into the hole and stone emerge from the hole closing it. Completing one section, I quickly looked around the room for more sticks. I found one located on the door itself and quickly turned the image.
“Two down! Three more to go!” I say to myself as I frantically look around the room. I might have gained enough distance from that black hole but, if that thing goes faster as it eats more of the dungeon, I might not have enough time as I think. I found another stick located in one of the holes where the water was coming out. I noticed one of them had a weaker stream and looking inside the hole, the stick was blocking the water flow. I quickly took it and placed it on the corresponding shape on the floor. After turning it, the stick disappeared from my grasp as soon as the image matched and it clicked in place.
“Ok, making good progress. Three down, two more to go!” I study the holes and the last two-piece I need is the thin rectangle and a hexagon. “Ok, where are you.”
I rummage through the shelves, rubble, tipping tables, but nothing.
“Fuck! Where is it!” I screamed getting frustrated. “Calm down. Calm down Yasu. If you're not calm, you don't think properly."
I looked in every corner of the room but nothing. I feel a fever creeping into me. It seems like whatever she caught I also got. It’s making it really difficult to move as my joints become sensitive. I decided to take a seat into one of the chairs and catching a breather while eating meat to regain my strength.
If I overwork myself now and really render my movement, I’m good as dead. I say and I look up where Suyeon is and she’s still sleeping.
"Useless," I mutter as I munch on meat. But I know for the fact that, if I caught the same fever she has, I won't be able to move later on. I quickly eat trying to regain a bit of energy but it wasn’t enough as I started coughing phlegm. My vision is getting blurry at times and I feel that if I sit any longer, I might not be able to stand up.
“Fuck, Where can be those two pieces be-“ My voice stops as I notice one of the legs of the chair is the shape of a hexagon. “Found one!”
I broke the chair and the stick broke free. I quickly ran towards the hexagon hole and placed the stick in it. Using my remaining strength, I turned the stone slab until it clicked in place and the stick was pulled off my grasp disappearing into the hole.
“Ok! One more to go." I say as I look around for something flat enough to fit the thin rectangle. But nothing decided to go up where the portal is just in case it's within the frame but nothing. I decided to look down to get a bigger picture of what the image is.
“Hah, I was right. It’s the damn crab rat.” I whisper to myself. I see it’s almost complete. The only last one is right in the center where its belly supposes to be.
Once I turn it that last circle, which will complete the picture.I say in my mind.
I ran back down and looked around some more for something that would fit the remaining pillar but nothing. There is nothing in this room that is the same shape like that. I tried the boards on the shelves, the chairs, I even cut wood using my sword to fit the thin rectangle but it wouldn't budge. It has to be a lever like the rest of them.
“Where the fuck is it!?” I shouted getting agitated and anxious as I think about how far the black hole has traveled. I flipped the whole place upside down. Broke every chair and table, ripped the doors apart, but nothing fits the remaining hole.
“Calm down. Calm down. Maybe we’re missing something.” I say as I ran back to the riddle and reread the sentence one more time.
“Ok, I know I need to find the pillar of truth. The pillars of truth are basically the fucking levers. And I’m missing one.”
I start to feel a headache as I start to overthink things.
Maybe it’s in the safe room? Or is it somewhere in the back there in the dark? Does the crab rat have it? Fuck!So many thoughts entered my mind and it's making my head feel like it is going to burst.
“Ugh!!” I groan tapping my head to subside the pain.
I tried carving more wood the same size but it won’t work. I tried forcing it to turn with my hands but even with my strength, it won’t turn.
"Shit shit shit shit," I whisper as I feel that the fever is getting worse along with the pounding on my head. “It should be here. The last lever should be here.”
I looked at the picture to see if I can find a clue but nothing. I ran back to the riddle and re-read it again. "Let the great truth enter the belly of your destiny. “Fuck!!"
I suddenly felt vomiting as I try my best to stand upright. I tried to control my self by closing my eyes breathing slowly to slow down the pace of my heart. As soon as I felt a bit calm, I opened my eyes and looked at the riddle one more time.
“Calm down. This is all Luro's trick. Fucking testing my patience." I whisper as I look at the riddle over and over again. "Ok, maybe I found all the pillars. Let the great truth enter the belly of your destiny? What the fuck does this mean...”
I have been out of school for a year without studying or any academic activities, I feel like I’ve become stupid. I have turned stupid.
“Ugh!! I feel fucking useless! Dammit!” I shouted at myself getting frustrated coming across something I should have figured out or solved easily. “Enter the belly of your destiny? Great truth? Come on come on come on. Think god damn fucking think!”
I ran towards the steps going down and when I looked at the image one more time, that when I noticed it.
“Wait, don’t tell me…” My voice trails as I approach the remaining circle. The last one I haven’t turned is basically the belly of the crab rat in the picture. “Let the great truth enter the belly of your destiny…like a great sword? But I don’t have a- wait…. how about my dragon slayer?”
I took out my dragon slayer out my dimensional bag.
“Let the great truth enter the belly of your destiny…” My voice trails off as I position myself properly. Then using my brute strength, I pushed down my dragon slayer in the ground within the thin rectangle hole. I went through up until it stopped and I felt something click underneath.
“Aha!” I say as I feel my sword click in place as I stab it all the way in the ground. I slowly turn my sword and the slab turns with it. “It works!”
I quickly turned the circle until it matched the bigger picture and in a quick motion, my dragon slayer was sucked into the ground disappearing from my grasp.
“Holy shit! No! Fuck!!” I was caught off guard and now I lost one of my good weapons to the ground. “Fuck! It’s just a sword. It’s just a fucking sword! Dammit!”
I stomped on the ground but it never spits back out my dragon slayer. I mostly lose sight of my weapons during a fight but I know for the fact that I'll find it after. But this time, I'm not sure if I'm getting it back and I feel empty losing something that has been with me for a while.

“Dammit! Relax Yasu, relax." I say to myself. "It's just a sword. At least you can get out of he-" I suddenly stop when I look up where the portal is and it looks exactly the same. Nothing has changed. I matched the entire picture, the ground took my sword, but the portal is still the same.
“Argh! What else does this shit need to open?!” I shout running up the steps. I have been here for a while trying to solve this riddle and the black hole is probably getting closer any minute. I was just thinking of using my skill to destroy the wall until I get outside but I don't know how far I am from the surface or if there's actually a surface. For all I know, I'm in a different dimension.
“Fuck! Fuck! Fu- hah, relax Yasu. Fucking relax.” I tried to calm myself by taking in deep breaths.
Ok, Yasu maybe you’re missing something.I started talking to myself to help elevate the stress a bit. What is it Yasu?
"Your fucking brain," I replied to my own question and all of a sudden, the whole place started shaking like there’s an earthquake and the chandeliers on top started breaking off the roof shattering into pieces as soon as it hits the ground. I froze in place looking at the hallway thinking the black hole will come out any minute but it didn’t. The place just shook violently. The water coming out of the walls suddenly burst out and the water level overlapped the canals causing it to spread everywhere. I run back at the pedestal to read the riddle one more time.
“O-ok r-r-relax. You're still alive. You still have time. you got this. Relax and solve the fucking thing. T-the next one is the crab and the r-rat will point the way?” My whole body is shaking and the fever isn’t helping my condition. I look back down at the pic and there’s only one direction the crab rat’s claws are aiming at and that's out the hallway where I came from.
“Lead the way? That thing is pointing back out the fucking hallway!” I shouted at the stupid pedestal. “Does it want me to go back- Wait! Don't tell me…The lever!!”
I run back out towards the waterfall and the place shook so much the torches came off the walls and I see the ceiling and the floor forming cracks like it'll crumble any minute.
“Fuck! Seismic step!” I quickly bolt down but if I’m not careful, I might run into the black hole by accident ending my life in an instant. The minute I got towards where the lever was, the water was practically bursting out a strong stream towards the edge. I slowly approach the edge to see if the black hole is anywhere close but instead, I see a familiar face. The crab rat was wandering on the floor below and the minute it noticed me, it let out a high screeching sound ending with a squeak.
“Oho, fucking ugly vermin. We meet agai-“ I suddenly stopped talking the minute I saw it ripped to shreds in an instant. Its arms flew off its body as something invisible ripped it off and I see more of its parts starting from its back being ripped off piece by piece.
"Oh fuck, it's here!" I screamed as I see the black hole emerge as it ate the cave itself and it slowly ripping the crab rat to shreds erasing its existence in an instant. I quickly grab the lever and pushed it clockwise. I push the lever rotating it but it never clicked and I turned and turned continuously. If I let go, the level will slowly turn the opposite direction. “Fuck! Come on!”
I feel the gravitational pull of the tiny black hole getting stronger and it’s making it harder for me to move and turn the lever. After going around one more time, it clicked in place and like the pillars, the lever was pulled to the ground. Rather than the hole filling up, it got bigger and a blue crystal sword came out of the ground. The waterfall magically reversed its direction as the water traveled up heading towards the portal room. I quickly took the sword out and the place shook violently more than ever causing parts of the ceiling and walls to collapse. I suddenly fell on my knees as the fever got worse and I feel my body becoming stiff.
“Oh fuck! Not now!!” I shout in frustration as I hit my knees but I feel like my arms are also becoming stiff and numb. It felt like the black hole is right next to me even though it’s still at the bottom of the waterfall absorbing everything. Rubble, dirt, everything was flying past me and next thing I know, I was sliding off the ground slowly elevating. Using my last bit of strength, I stabbed the crystal sword onto the ground as far as I can and hold on to stop myself from sliding.
“Agrhh!!” I tried holding on as my life depends on it. It feels like something is pulling on my legs so much it feels like it’s going to rip me in half. “Chef’s Coat! Overdrive!”
I feel like I’m slowly losing the grip on the sword. The minute my skill encased my body, I managed to pull myself closer to the ground and regaining the movement of my legs, I lodge my foot on the floor and used all the muscle on my legs to jump forward like a frog trying to gain distance away from the black hole. The ground below me erupted and I managed to gain an enough of a distance to be able to freely move my body. I quickly got up and sprinted towards the portal without hesitation. I still feel something pulling me and as soon as I looked back, I see the black hole from the distance as it absorbs all of the torches that were lit up when as I passed them. It’s moving at a faster rate than before slowly gaining up to me turning everything behind it into pure darkness.
“Seismic step!” I shouted as I ran towards the portal room as fast as I can. This time, I see a light towards the end of the hall and as soon as I got into the portal room, I see it turned on brightly lighting up the whole area. I ran towards Suyeon and when I was about to grab her, something hits me from the side taking all the air out of me as my body flew towards a wall.
“Ack!” I hit the wall in the far end and came crashing down on the ground that has a foot of water. As I look up, I see another crab rat slowly getting up the steps towards Suyeon.
“Get the fuck out of my way! Tenderize!” I shouted my skill as I swung towards the crab rat from a distance. My attack sent the crab rat flying to the other wall and using this opportunity, I ran towards the portal and the rising water didn’t help as it made it difficult to even lift up my legs. As I got closer towards the steps, I see the black hole absorb the hallway and its also heading for the portal absorbing everything.
“Fucking hell!!” I shouted as I ran as fast as I can trying to beat the black hole. I felt its gravity pull as if a group of people is pulling me back. I see the crab rat also running towards me, and in a split second; he flew towards the portal disappearing in less than a second.
Fuck, even I won't stand a chance if I get caught on that!! I shouted in my mind as I prepared to jump towards the portal.Using all of my leg strength, I jumped up towards the portal causing the floor behind me to erupt in place. Luckily I wasn’t thrown off course as I landed on top the portal near Suyeon. I grabbed her and without wasting any time, I jumped into the portal and I knew if I was a second late, I would have died as I felt the back of my shirt rip away and the skin on my back felt like someone pinched it. A white bright light covered my vision and I felt my overdrive skill wearing off. As soon as it did, everything turned black as I passed out of exhaustion.
.
.
.
I slowly woke up to a figure. My vision is taking time to adjust but as it clears, I see Suyeon looking down at me with a blank expression. But as soon as she sees me wake up, her gaze went crazy everywhere as she tries to avert mine.
“Ugh…” I mutter as I force myself to sit up and I felt a sting on my back as I pry myself away from the ground. “Argh! Shit!”
It seems like the skin off my back was ripped off with the shirt and blood dried up gluing me to the ground. The pain was enough to jolt all my senses awake as I clench my fist waiting for the pain to subside. I noticed I was still gripping the crystal sword and getting a better look at it, it looks like it was carved out of a big diamond. Not wanting to lose it, I called out my dimensional bag to store it and while I took out a couple of pieces of meat to munch on and help me regenerate faster. I’m so used to doing it routinely by myself I forgot that Suyeon is staring me and as I devour the meat in my hand.
“What? You want?” I say as I hold out the cooked meat in front of her and she slowly grabs it off my hand.
“T-thank you.” She says as she slowly started eating.
Wow, she acts as nothing happened. I say in my mind as I took out another one and slowly munched on it trying to regain my strength.
“Fuck, we almost died you know that? Fucking hell, you slept the whole time!” I tell her but she just looks at me.
“Where are we? A-A-are we dead?” She asked me.
What the fu-, I Just told you her we almost died didn't I?I say in my mind looking at her confused. I decided to ignore her as I looked around the area and I notice I’m in another cave. I quickly finished my food and took out a container full of water and drank half of it. The remaining half I gave her and she gladly accepted it and nodding towards me to express her gratitude. The whole cave is greatly illuminated by blue stalactites protruding from the walls. Yet, it wasn’t big enough for even a gatekeeper to fit in.
Should I look around for a bit while she finishes eating? She eats so fucking slow.I say in my mind as I slowly stood up.
Thud!
“Ack! what the?" I mutter as I was brought to my knees when I tried to stand up. It felt like I have a hangover and it's making me want to vomit what I just ate as the whole room spun around me wildly.
“Y-you shouldn’t try to stand. I tried also but it makes me sick.” She tells me. “I-it’s called flame sickness.”
“Flame what?” I tell her as I tried to regain my breathing.
Now it feels like I ran a marathon. What the fuck is going on. I whisper in my mind while trying to catch some air.
"F-flame sickness. I think I-its like a fever. Say the command, health status." She tells me and I was caught off guard that she knows something I don't.
“Health status.” I quickly whisper and another notification came up in front of me.
Health:
Recovering
Poisoned:
No
Sickness:
Flame Sickness
“Flame sickness description?” I whisper but nothing. “If this is like a fever, then it means it will go away on its own.”
Then I felt a slight tap on my arm and when I look, I see Suyeon handing me the empty container. I grab it off her and quickly place it in my bag.
Fuck, I’ve been through worse!! I shout in my mind as I forced myself up. I managed to get on my feet but I had to close my eyes and slowly breathe to keep what I just ate from coming out. Even with my eyes closed, I feel like the whole room is spinning wildly. I waited for it to calm down before opening my eyes and I didn't move, trying to keep my balance.
“Ok, slowly but surely," I whisper to myself slowly walked towards a path where I feel a slight breeze is coming from. I hear something scramble behind me and I see she’s also on her feet almost stumbling down as she tried following me.
“You witch stic- I mean Suyeon. Walk in front of me." I tell her and she just looks at me but without saying anything, she slowly walked in front and we both slow-walked through the cave trying to look for a way out.
Never trust anyone. I say as I walk cautiously behind her. An hour probably passed and we have gotten used to our body a bit. I still feel feverish and it's still no good to do any extreme movements like running or even turning around really quick since it brings back the feeling as if the whole world is spinning make me want to vomit. But at least I can walk normally. We rest standing since the minute we sat down the ground earlier, we had trouble getting up like before.
“Here," I say as I hand her one of the very few pieces of boiled karkinos. The minute she sees the crab meat, her eyes went wide with shock. "Hurry up and fucking take it.”
She quickly wiped her hands on her clothes and happily accepted it.
"Hurry up and eat it so we can get out of here," I tell her and she looked at me as if she didn't know what to do.
The fuck is wrong with her?I say in my mind. I paid no attention to her and just silently ate my food slowly trying not to make too much of a movement. The juice coming from the meat quickly filled my mouth and the meat itself melted like butter.
“Fuck, this is good," I say minding my own business. That's when I hear her make some weird sounds. She kept stuffing her face and food build up inside her cheeks making her look like a squirrel collecting nuts.
What the hell… I whisper in my mind looking at her eat like a hamster. I quickly focus my attention on my food and we both devoured the karkinos meat as if we're each on our own world. Another hour has passed and I managed to find a rock to sit on letting the food digest before I start walking again. I’m sitting on top of the big boulder looking at the map the dungeon safe keeper gave me. Suyeon is sitting on the on the ground leaning her back against the boulder with her eyes closed.
Just get her out of here Yasu and leave her ass in town. Stop complaining. I whisper in my mind glancing at her. But Yasu, she, so far, has become a giant headache.
I know right? She seems off on the head also.
Ha, it's not like you're any different.
Haha, fuck you. We’re the same so if I'm off on the head, you're off in the head also.
Ah, you're right.
Now, Doesn’t she talk at all? We’ve been for a while and she hasn’t said anything or do anything except fiddle with those damn rocks.
Say something.
“So, how the did you end up looking like an overcooked barbecue?” I asked her and her body went rigid as I see her froze in place.
Smooth. I whisper in my mind as I watch her frantically look around. She didn’t turn around but she just slowly placed her head on her knees and hugged her legs tight. I decided to change the question this time. "So, how did the others die? They were killed off weren't they."
She still didn’t move or say anything.Tch. It’s better if I talk to this fucking rock I’m sitting on than her.
"Hello, you magnificent rock. How was your rocky day?" I asked the rock I’m sitting on. "Oh, greetings and good day to you ol’ chap. My day was fantabulous!”
Hoping it would have gotten her attention; she didn’t say anything as she continued to hug her legs slowly rocking back and forth.
Tch. Who cares about the other adventurers. It’s not like I know any of them. But, was Luro talking about my school nurse? Ha! Stupid ass, I hardly have any strong bond with her. She can go kick rocks with the gold.I say in my mind as I lay down on the rock.
After we digested our food, we continued walking through the cave in silence. I have her walk in front of me while I follow behind. I feel safer this way but I notice her fidgeting as if anything can just pop out of thin air and grab her.
"Health status," I say studying if the flame sickness had disappeared. "Tch, still there. Hey you, how did you know this command?”
She didn’t turn around and kept walking. “I-I figured it out.”
“Oh so you’re not stupid and you actually talk. Wow.” I replied and she quickly turns around glaring at me. She forgot about our condition and she instantly got on her knees covering her mouth as the world around her is probably spinning. “Pfft, that’s what you get for turning too fast.”
I see her look up still glaring at me. Making me curse her in my mind. Fuck you.
“Tch, well let’s find a way to get out of here shall we? The faster we find a town, the faster we can separate ways.” I tell her holding out a hand to help her up. She grabs it but quickly let go as soon as she stood up. "Fucking peasant," I mutter as she started walking towards a small entrance.
As we got close to it, we both felt the wind get stronger. I noticed that's she started walking a bit faster than usual probably due to the excitement. We reached a dead end where a tiny bright light is coming out of a hole.
"Stand back," I tell her. "Pound."
BOOM!
My punch blasted the wall and a strong gust of wind entered the room along with the smell of fresh air as I suddenly feel my knees become weak and my vision started spinning almost making me throw up inside my mouth.
"Ugh fuck," I whisper as I look up. The wind already cleared the smoke and as I slowly stand up and look out, I see a beautiful sunset at the horizon yet, it didn't make me as happy as Suyeon who looked out the hole with such joy. “Just perfect. Right when the sun is about to set.”
I noticed we’re located at a much higher ground as the wall I blasted goes horizontally down. The sky has been replaced with an orange hue as the sun halfway sinks from a distance. The wind is a lot stronger since we're high up but the cool breeze feels good as it grazes my skin calming my nerves. Suyeon is looking outside probably what she sees is a brand new world to her. Her smile is bigger than before showing that’s she really excited to set foot onto a new section of her life.
You're lucky you have a similar circumstance like me or else. I say in my mind, as I feel a little bit furious remembering that she's the reason I got into this mess. She happily looked at the forest not noticing another problem.
“How the hell do I get down from here? I don’t have any skill that would save me from that height. Chef’s coat wouldn’t even work. I’ll die in an instant upon impact.”I whisper to myself as I look down at a height I would probably die if I jump out.
