Boom! 

Though the sky was clear, the air rang with something like the sound of thunder as heaps of dirt and boulders the size of houses rolled down. In the face of the mountain’s flood of fury, Seo Jun-Ho seemed as small as a speck of dust.

He would go ahead… 

Seo Jun-Ho’s voice faded instantly as he disappeared into the distance. The landslide started to come down two, or maybe even three times faster as he activated Booster and began scaling the mountain.
