Unfortunately, Gray wasn't able to kill him and get exp to level up in the last attack, but at least he had been able to knock out the vine ability user, allowing for the path ahead to be opened up.
They glanced back only to see the other horned ones were about to reach them, without wasting any time the three rushed through the small gates which were now cleared of the small vines.
It led to another staircase. While the two ran down, Gray stretched his hand out towards the gate before muttering "Pause"
[Pause]
