Swordbound Chronicles

Golden Peacock Castle, Second Floor.

The combined order practitioners screamed, "Come on, let's conquer the second floor together!" and a mob of them instantly assembled, racing up the stairs. They broke through the dark door to the second story without a second's hesitation.

"Tap... Tap... tap..."

"Argh!" A horrifying cry shattered the eerie quiet. The combined order practitioners, who had just entered the second floor, were hit by thousands of arrows.

The commotion extended to the rear of the first floor, joining the group in front that had perished at the tips of the arrows. The group remaining was terrified by the screams of the practitioners who had been killed by the arrows.

Suma Fen called out to him from the first floor hallway, "Stop your steps...!!!"

Chaos had already broken out, despite the efforts of numerous practitioners to halt their steps in order to ascend to the second floor. Numerous additional practitioners were tossed into the dark hallway on the second level as hundreds of people shoved one another.
