"Hyun!" Ara called out to him.
He turned around, barely managing to lift his sword as another object crashed against it, wielded by the towering, heavily-breathing man who had sprinted the length of the ominous chamber in the blink of an eye.
Though he guarded against the sudden attack, it was nothing short of a miracle, and even then, he was pushed back immediately as his soles slid across the ground.
"...Little man…Little woman…"
The enigmatic giant of a man spoke in a bellowing voice, pushing his curved, blood-stained claymore against his much smaller blade.
His eyes were unable to be seen through the dark holes poked into the makeshift mask he wore, though his gaze could be felt as he struggled against the monstrous strength possessed by the tall man, gritting his teeth.
"Ara…run–!" He yelled out again, though strained as he was pushed back further.
