The Gargoyle Statues

~FWISH~

Stark punched one of the stone statues that were displayed along the stone path of [Reaper's Garden].

He had aimed for the first one he saw after walking a bit as he didn't want to take any risks: what if those statues were a trap, or what if they came back to life, and thus he would be forced to fight hundreds of them.

The gray statue he had punched was that of an ugly gargoyle, its eyes glowing with a green aura that seemed to following him.

~BOOM~

Obviously, as Stark's attack was enhanced by crimson aura, the statue shattered into hundreds of pieces the moment his fist hit.

"Huh, nothing I guess," Stark titled his head, he actually really expected this to be a trap, "Hm…" but then he looked at the other ones, and all the small auras in their eyes who kept looking at him, "What if it's only a few of them…"

This made much more sense.

And so…

~BOOM~
