An Accident (1)

In the dim tunnel, the only light came from a burning torch. Here, there as no difference between day and night, and no way to measure the passing of time.

The only thing the soldiers knew was an uninterrupted stream of demons and an unending battle.

As the main army advanced, the soldiers reached the middle portion of the demons' tunnels. As a cluster of side tunnels appeared, waves of demons rushed in from all sides. After having experienced many fights, the soldiers' nerves were already tightly strung. The demon attacks that were initially chaotic now became orderly, and the battles became more and more difficult.

However, the worse the situation became, the more conscious the men became that they were nearing the demons' nest. The demons were continually sending troops out in a large-scale counterattack to prevent them from attacking and entering the nest.
