Moon's Labyrinths

Chapter 1

Chapter 1 - Prologue

He was looking up at the moon in the night sky . The moon was always there . It continued to subtract and add to its body as it continued to change its shape . There were times when the moon was completely gone, but everyone had an understanding . The moon would always be there .

The moon was unchanging, yet the person didn’t remain unchanged . A different version of himself looked at the moon each time . In his ignorant days, he just viewed the moon as a fixture in the dark sky . However, the meaning behind the moon changed as he grew older . When he first found out about the moon, it was merely the object of his curiosity . When his mother chastised him, he would look up at the moon as he tried to hide his tears . It was like a friend . When his parents passed away, it was like a brother that cried with him . When he founded his company, it was a companion that lifted him up . When he started dating his future wife, it was like an old man cheering on his love . When his daughter was born, it was like the old birth deity congratulating the birth of his child .

But currently, the moon was looking down on him . It was a version of the moon he had never seen before .

“ . . . are you mocking me too?”

It was a cloudless night sky . There was a single source of light emanating from the dark sky above the city . The man looked up at the spiteful full moon as he mumbled to himself .

As always, there was no answer from the moon .

*****

Fire erupted from the city, and dust rose from the sky as buildings fell . The cries and screams of the people rang out in the sky .

A terrible feeling of despair was crushing everyone’s heart .

Pandemonium .

To be precise, this was downtown London, and Sungyoon could only use that single word to describe what he saw .

Was this how London looked during the Second World War when it was bombed?

The city was in rubble, and there wasn’t a single flame of hope that could be seen within the city .

Sungyoon tightened his grip on the great sword . The being, who had destroyed the city, was in front of him .

When he saw it for the first time, the only description he could come up with was ‘huge’ .

The elephant was the largest land mammal, yet this beast made the elephant look like a child . It was a spine chilling sight . It had no neck, and a tumorlike head protruded above its shoulders . Eyes, nose and mouth were present on its head . Instead of fingers, it possessed long, sharp claws . It swung its claws in a threatening manner as it anchored itself with eight massive legs .

It was quite obvious that it wasn’t a normal beast . It was a monster, and its eyes were calmly staring at Sungyoon .

Koo-roo-roo-roohk!

It seemed the monster had registered Sungyoon as an enemy . Up until that moment, it had been causing indiscriminate destruction . It was now vigilant towards Sungyoon as it let out a low growl .

Sungyoon was wearing a bracelet shaped device underneath his armor . He cut two strands of magical energy linked to this device . Two gems on the bracelet lost their light .

Hoohk!

At the same time, the sword and shield in his hands disappeared . Sungyoon immediately fed his magical energy into a different gem .

Sssk!

Another weapon appeared in front of him .

It was a halberd letting out a bright silver light . As if he was showing his resolve, Sungyoon brought down the shaft of the halberd hard on the ground .

He checked on the status of his other gems . The gems were absorbing Sungyoon’s magical energy, and their power was being transferred into Sungyoon . His strength was overflowing, and his senses had turned sharp . He was ready to unleash his violent magic .

His preparation was done . Sungyoon grabbed the halberd with both hands, and he pointed it towards the monster .

He would no longer let the monster destroy this city .

Many people had sacrificed their lives, but this place was the homeland of his friend . His friend’s family was here .

Above all else...

‘I heard my daughter cheering me on!’

Above all else, her voice boosted his will . His entire body was now ready for battle . He got into his battle stance .

Boom!

Sungyoon took a big step forward .

The silver armor, which was surrounding his whole body, creaked as his red cape fluttered around him .

Sungyoon maintained his momentum as he ran towards the monster .

The Silver Knight and the heinous monster had appeared in London, and they fiercely clashed against each other .
