With a sense of cautious optimism, we continued moving through the doors. After what felt like an eternity, we finally reached door 35. As we stepped inside, we were met with a startling sight: a completely normal room.

There were no creepy paintings, no flickering lights, and no unsettling noises. Instead, the room was tastefully furnished, with a cozy sofa, a polished wooden coffee table, and bookshelves lining the walls. A soft, warm light bathed the room, creating a serene atmosphere that felt like a stark contrast to the horrors we had faced so far.

"This... is unexpected," Yoongi said, his voice filled with surprise.

"Do you think it's safe?" Taehyung asked, looking around warily.

"I don't know, but we should stay alert," Namjoon cautioned. "Let's search the room for anything useful."

We spread out, examining every corner of the room for clues. As I ran my fingers along the spines of the books on the shelves, something caught my eye. A thick, leather-bound book sat slightly askew, its cover embossed with strange symbols.

"Hey, I think I found something," Jimin called out, pulling the book from the shelf.

We all gathered around as Jimin carefully opened the book. Inside, we found detailed illustrations and descriptions of various monsters, each more horrifying than the last. There were notes about their behaviors, weaknesses, and how to avoid them.

"This is incredible," Namjoon said, his eyes scanning the pages. "This book has information on all the monsters we've encountered."

"Look here," Jimin said, pointing to a page with a familiar creature. "This one matches the description of 'Rush,' the one Jungkook named."

"See? Naming him wasn't such a bad idea," Jungkook said, trying to lighten the mood.

Jin rolled his eyes. "Just don't start naming all of them."

As we continued flipping through the thick, leather-bound book, Jimin suddenly gasped. "Guys, listen to this," he said, his voice trembling slightly as he read out loud.

"At door 50, the most dangerous monster, often referred to as 'The Boss,' resides. It is crucial to be extremely cautious and prepared when approaching this door. This entity is known to be highly intelligent and exceptionally powerful. Many have tried to defeat it and failed."

A heavy silence fell over us as we absorbed the gravity of Jimin's words. The idea of facing an even more formidable monster than the ones we'd encountered so far sent chills down our spines.

Jimin continued reading, "The final door is numbered 100. Reaching this door will grant access to an elevator, the only known escape route from this haunted hotel. Survivors must navigate the remaining rooms with utmost care to reach their freedom."

"An elevator at door 100," Namjoon echoed, a glimmer of hope in his eyes. "That's our way out."

"But between us and that elevator is The Boss," Hoseok pointed out, his voice tinged with fear. "How are we supposed to get past it?"

"We have to be smart," Yoongi said firmly. "This book might have the information we need to defeat it. We just have to keep reading and be prepared."

"Look here," Jin said, flipping to another page. "It says The Boss relies heavily on sound to detect its prey. Staying silent and moving cautiously will be key."

"Alright, so we have to be silent ninjas," Jungkook said, trying to inject a bit of humor to lighten the mood. "We can do that, right?"

"Yeah, no more screaming like banshees," Taehyung said, giving Jungkook a playful nudge.

"Very funny," Jungkook grumbled, but a small smile tugged at his lips.

"Let's focus," Namjoon said, his tone serious. "We need to get through the next few doors, gather any supplies we can find, and make sure we're ready for door 50."

Jungkook, sensing the tension that had settled over the group, attempted to lighten the mood with a playful grin. "Yeah, so the boss is blind. Should be a piece of cake, right?"

Taehyung snorted, shaking his head. "Yeah, except for the part where it can probably hear a pin drop from a mile away."

"Details, details," Jungkook waved his hand dismissively, earning a few chuckles from the others. "We just have to be as quiet as ninjas. Silent, invisible ninjas."

"Well, let's hope our ninja skills are up to par," Jin said, trying to keep the levity going. "But seriously, we need to stay focused. Let's go through the next few doors and see what we can find."

As we moved towards door 35, the tension was palpable. Opening the door, we were met with a sight that made our hearts race and our breaths catch in our throats.

Eyes. Hundreds of them, plastered on the walls, staring right at us. Each eye varied in size and color, all unblinking, all focused on us. A chilling silence hung in the air as we stood frozen in place, unsure of what to do.

"Guys, don't look directly at them," Namjoon said in a hushed voice. "Keep your eyes averted and move slowly."

We nodded, trying to follow his advice as we cautiously entered the room. The eerie presence of the eyes made it feel like the walls themselves were watching us, waiting for us to make a wrong move.

Jungkook, in an attempt to lighten the mood despite the creepy atmosphere, whispered, "Yeah, the boss might be blind, but these guys definitely aren't."
