With one swift move, Sunoo pulled out the pin and pointed the hose at the fire, extinguishing a portion of the fire that allowed him to stand outside.

"You had this with you all along?! And you never said-"

"Chill, Nicholas. I just found it on the way."

He paused, putting out another area of fire for the others to stand. Nicholas rolled his eyes at the reply and looked away.

"Follow me."

Sunoo instructed as the others followed him, stepping on the areas where he extinguished.

They moved through the burning hallway till they reached the atrium of the building. It had the same painted ceiling from before. The marble floor had gold filling in its crevices. The same four pillars from before held up the ceiling. The only difference was that it was located on the second floor and more hallways grew from the place, leading to different rooms and staircases.

"Does this building keep getting modified or what?! I don't remember seeing this place at all-"

Rene let out in frustration. Taki agreed to her words.

"It is clear that we are trapped in a fucking ever growing labyrinth with no way out. And to spice things up, we are on the verge of getting burned alive. Wow, how cool~"

Sunoo sarcastically spoke as he put a halt to his steps. He did not know where to head after that. It seemed that no body did.

Riki frowned ; scanning his surroundings.

How are we going to find that door amidst this chaos-

Oh wait..

Flashback rolled into the moment when he walked past room three on the second floor.

He remembered seeing the open door and taking a peek inside. After a short glance he walked away from the room.

Someone must've already raided it. The exit can't be here, if that's the case.

He thought to himself and was about to leave when something caught his eye.

The wooden door had a small portion of its paint stripped off. The paintless area appeared to have been painted over with a slightly different color, indicating that it had been repainted.

When he noticed that the section of the door that had been repainted in a different color resembled a funny shape, he laughed.

"There's no way they let this be. It is so obvious."
