"Then how about both of us having a happily ever after story... in hell?" asked Chunhee, pointing the gun to the groom this time.

Some people are screaming. This is the time, decided Sikyung.

"Joochan-ssi, cover me!"

When the situation was crowded, Sikyung hid under the table as Joochan automatically stepped to the right to cover Sikyung. Chunhee shoots one time to the ceiling and makes the people scream one more time.

"We can get a lot of energy too," Chunhee is laughing.

Suddenly, transparent people appeared out of nowhere: some of them are in the form of people, but some of them are women in red dresses and long nails. People are screaming again when those transparent people flying towards them, touching their chest and pulling a white line out of their chest, then throw it towards some big mirrors around the room. Sikyung stand up at the right timing and shot her arrow to Chunhee's arm, the gun fall out of her hand. Joochan runs fast and kicks the gun away.

"I don't know how to save people, or how to win over these... ghosts," said Sikyung as she quickly counted the enemies around her: 3 ghosts and 9 blood maidens, and Chunhee, "or how to restore this place... but I'm willing to die now, as a hero."

She knows she can't bother the injured Minjoon and it will be too late to wait for Bonhwa, Daesun, Kichul or Minsook if she wants them to come here. She knows she hasn't been trained properly but she just wants to give her best, even if it's the last thing she can do. She stands on the table and shoots her arrow at the enemies, which are screaming angrily as they get wounded. One of the blood maiden avoids her arrow and using her nails, attacks Sikyung by her face and leaves a long scratch on her cheek. Sikyung screams and dodge, blood flowing out of her wound. I can't win this, Sikyung thought, I'm sorry... guardians...

"Sikyung-ssi," suddenly Sikyung feels Joochan is kneeling behind her and he touches her cheek with one palm, "arise and fight. We can do this."

As Sikyung stands up again, she can't believe the scene in front of her. Birds, a lot of kinds of birds, the birds that she knows are likely flying around the sea are now attacking the enemies. They use their claws and attack the enemies fiercely. The enemies now seem to forget their target which might be Sikyung. And she just realized that there is no more blood... no more scars on her cheek, where Joochan touched her a minute ago. Does it mean...

"Joochan-ssi? Are you...?"
