- CHAPTER FOUR: WHO AM I? 章 4: 私は誰?
I opened my eyes and snapped back to reality. I watched Grover as he furiously tried to take down the minotaur who was thrice his size. I felt bad for not being able to do anything. I wanted to help him badly, however I did not know how to do so.
I tried desperately to find a solution in order to help Grover, however no ideas popped out. I panicked even more as the minotaur grabbed Grover by the neck and lifted him up, almost strangling him to death.
I desperately searched the area until I found a huge stone on the ground. I quickly grabbed the stone and clutched it tightly.
"Hey asshole!" I shouted. The minotaur changed his direction to me. He huffed and growled as he let go of Grover. Grover fell down on the ground with a loud grunt as he coughed, trying to catch up his breath.
"How dare you call me with such words?!" the minotaur shouted as he furiously ran towards me, his hands ready to grab my body. As he came closer to me I threw the stone at him, hoping something would happen.
However, I was not the best archer, and the stone landed 10cm away from me. The minotaur smirked as he ran towards me.
Well shit.
I couldn't do anything but to watch the minotaur come closer and closer towards me. I wanted to desperately run, but my feet were glued to the ground. I eyed Grover and watched him struggle has he tried to get back up on his two legs.
He desperately looked at me and shouted "yOU HAVE TO FUCKING RUN GYEONGI, WHY THE HELL ARE YOU STANDING THERE!" as his words left his mouth, I felt a rush of encouragement rush through my veins.
Despite being utterly scared I tried to run. I tried to run as fast as I could and not look back , hoping that I would be able to outrun the minotaur. However, I thought too highly of myself as I accidentally stumbled over a log, and fell down on my knees.
I couldn't help but to let out a small laugh. Tears ran down my cheek as I thought of how stupid I was. I thought that I was strong enough to defeat the minotaur, for a second I really thought that I would make it out alive.
It was stupid of me to think that I could beat him. There was no way I would be able to beat Cronus as well. I've lost all hope, they've probably mistaken me for someone else, there was no way I held any power in me.
Someone as weak as me would never be able to be powerful like a god. I couldn't help but cry out. Tears ran down my cheeks. I clutched the mud on the floor. The skies turned dark, and the rain got heavier and heavier for each second.
Thunder stroked the skies, I could sense the minotaur come closer and closer.
"Look at you. So weak, so fragile," The minotaur scoffed. I felt his glare pierce through my body. I turned my soaked body to face him, my whole body trembling. He had me corned, and I couldn't do anything to stop it.
