"Agreed."

Seth slid to a halt at the doorway, and saw the Knight standing over Tolkalee. He launched himself forward landing over Tolkalee. "Don't you dare touch him!"

“Eh?!” Knight C (Carlsen) was startled. “Who the heck are you suppose to be?!”

"His brother," he gestured to Tolk. "Leave him alone."

Hinata headed for the door.

"Are you coming?" She asked.

( @AltrinceKun Kai just entered the portal so would she be in the actual Labyrinth or the entrance? What type of spirits would be there (so I can use it as context and stuff) And what maze did you put Kai in (though I know that she won't know either way)?
(I'll assume there's at least one random spirit)

Kai held her breath. Through the holes of the mask, she could see a lone spirit wearing a thin dress. The spirit's mask gave off an aggressive and scary vibe, showing the image of a furious red Oni demon.
Kai impulsively gasped, her air cut short. Flashbacks of that time when she reentered the monster realm to seek asylum played out before her eyes. Her arm felt raw, remembering the bat wielded by the leader of the local monsters. That monster was an Oni as well. Kai remembered that she had barely made it out alive, scrambling away to the human settlement as jeers of "Betrayer!" and "killer of my children!" rained down on her. At the time, she had been only fourteen or fifteen years old, and naive. If the human healer, Lorena, hadn't saved her, she would be dead right now. Too bad Lorena, like the entire settlement that had been captured by a different monster group a few years later, had been brutally murdered for either being a human or siding with the humans, as her parents had.

Now, looking at the red Oni mask, Kai felt a flash of fear. I quickly overcame her vision, and she could feel the small cracks on her dark skin expand. She knew they were flashing green, and she could feel the ground rumble beneath her. Her hand reached forward, scorching the mask of the spirit in front of her. She grabbed the mask and yanked it towards the ground, forcing the spirit to bow before her.
Before the mask fully left the spirit's face, Kai could see an expression of fear and disbelief. The spirit looked up at Kai, and she could see that the spirit was a young human girl, fearful and pained.
When the girl's mask dropped to the ground with a hollow thud, her body began to vanish. Tears spilled from the girl's eyes and ran down her cheeks, scorched by Kai's flame.
"No… please…" she begged. Only a second later, she had vanished, with no trace of her except for the clunky Oni mask that she had wore.

Tolkalee woke, but his good eye was facing down. He couldn't see anything. He could hear things. Like Seth threatening someone. A smile touched his face for a moment, before he blacked out again.

Hinata was now in the hallway.

Tolkalee woke up again, a bit later. This time he heard nothing. It seemed like there was no one in the room. He groaned and tried to pushed himself up. A dull pain was coming from his right shoulder. He'd gone down hard on it and probably dislocated it. Though he could tell that all his open wounds were gone, someone must have used some sort of magic, he couldn't have been out for that long.

Adara covered her mouth to stifle a scream. She slipped inside, gagging slightly at the smell in the air, and winced.

(She would most likely be at the entrance. For now I’ll put her in the Suicide region, since no one’s there yet. The spirits there should show signs of how they killed themselves like a noose around their neck, cuts on their arms, wet bodies referring to them drowning themselves, etc. Plus seeing the reference of the Oni mask, it’s either gonna be War or Suicide anyway)

Knight C in front of Seth backed away slightly. “I think you might have misunderstood something there, fella” the knight said with a nervous voice, for Cronos had told him who Seth is.

Cronos looked at Hinata. “You go ahead first, I have something else to do in here…”

Seth glared at the Knight. "I'm listening," he crossed his arms.

“My only power is Aura based. So I can’t possibly make all those wounds and cuts on him, you can even check me for weapons ‘cause I don’t have any. Plus, I was healing him, not hurting” Knight C explained in a calm tone.

The Knights arrived at The Harvesting Chamber but see no one. “Heh, well this is weird…? Cronos might’ve hallucinated…?” Knight L (Joseph) asked. “Either way, he’s not here…” Knight G (Damien) said with a slightly disappointed voice. Not a minute passed, an hurried announcement was made.

“Attention all Knights, please stop the marble deposition at once. Spirits within the entrance hallways have reported of a spirit being Ended with their mask still on the floor. Please investigate immediately and take care of the culprit if possible. Thank you…and may the poor soul rest in peace…”
