Chapter 11. Did I Get Them All?
Kim Do-Joon was greeted by a view of snowy mountains rising from the horizon.
Kim Do-Joon found himself somewhere that looked to be a mix between desert and forest. To his left was a vast and distant lake, and to his right was the stretch of ashen plains. The Elemental Island lacked a unifying theme.
He pondered where to go, and decided to follow his gut leftward. Somehow, he felt it was more peaceful.
Where are all the monsters?
Kim Do-Joon trod along the path for quite some time but saw no hide or hair of any living creatures. He remained guarded and alert nonetheless. After all, he never knew where danger could strike from.
His Perception stat, level sixteen, elevated his senses beyond that of an ordinary human.
Suddenly, he heard a faint, disturbing sound.

Kim Do-Joon silently surveyed his surroundings. Seemingly out of nowhere, a tiny burrow had appeared behind him.

He cautiously approached the burrow. After three small steps, something abruptly attacked him from behind with a muffled sound.
