Share"Whoa, whoa, whoa, do we have to move right to violence? Can't we just have a civil conversation?" Jake said, meanwhile dodging claws and fangs coming at him every second from the sphinx trying to maul him.

The beast no longer responded to him and just kept the ferocious expression on its face as it kept charging him over and over.

Finally, Jake realized that there was going to be no more dialogue between them and with a sigh, he just formed a spell circle on his hand and blasted out a wave of ice that completely turned the sphinx into a frozen popsicle.

It was an intelligent magical beast, but at the end of the day, it was no stronger than an ordinary lion...Just one that was 10 feet tall.

Jake felt a bit saddened that he had to end the life of an intelligent creature, but he quickly shook his head, stowing those thoughts away as he checked his map again and found that once again, the maze had once again changed on him. Now he had to backtrack the way he came!

He spun around and quickly took off in a sprint, taking the second left in front of him.

Once again, he found another pile of leaves on the ground. This time he just jumped over the entire thing instead of wasting any more time exposing another trap.

He kept sprinting on, checking his map every couple of seconds for changes.

"AND JAKE GREMORY IS MAKING GREAT TIME!" the announcer yelled out over the maze, causing Jake to smirk.

"HE IS CURRENTLY IN FIRST PLACE, BEING THE DEEPEST TOWARDS THE CENTER OF THE MAZE, BUT WILL HE HOLD HIS LEAD? BECAUSE HARRY POTTER IS HOT ON HIS HEELS AFTER CORRECTLY SOLVING THE RIDDLE OF A DIFFERENT SPHINX."

After about a dozen more twists and turns and constantly checking his map, Jake finally reached what he would consider to be the halfway point towards the center.

Suddenly, Jake's instincts flared up as he felt something - or rather multiple somethings - were stalking him, intending to attack.

Jake heard rustling coming from the plant walls all around him and suddenly springing through the walls themselves were a whole lot of acromantulas, giant spiders that he'd seen in the Forbidden Forest.

From the shrubbery emerged ten enormous, hairy spiders, their pincers clicking in hunger and anticipation. Jake cracked his knuckles. His confident grin didn't waver. "Well, if it isn't my eight-legged friends.

Ready for round two?" Individually or in small groups, he didn't particularly think these things were much of a threat to him.

"Human, we told you we would have our revenge, and now we will feast on you!" A spider hissed out. It slowly lowered itself closer to the ground, crouching down on its legs, ready to pounce.

Jake, meanwhile, was surprised. That was actually the same spider he had faced earlier in the Forbidden Forest that ran away from him.

It appeared this thing really held a grudge if it waited this long for revenge, and it brought some serious backup too!

All ten of the spiders charged him simultaneously. Jake threw up a blast of cold towards the spider that was closest to him coming at him from behind, freezing it solid as he simultaneously threw up a shield in front of him.

However, a few of the spiders behind him just ignored their dead comrade and kept charging him, able to actually get in close on him.

It seemed that the spider that had escaped him earlier had told its friends about Jake's abilities, and they were just employing an all-out suicide charge strategy on him, trying to bombard him before he could fight back.

One of the smaller but still almost 2 ft tall spiders got right underneath Jake and sprang up at him, its fangs going for his throat. Jake leaned his head back as its pincer grazed his shirt collar, immediately tearing the fabric.

The spider continued on its trajectory as it flew and landed on the wall of vines nearby, letting out a hiss of disappointment. Jake fired another icy blast towards the arachnid, killing that one as well.

The remaining eight spiders hissed that two of their comrades had just been taken out almost instantly.

The ice shield Jake had thrown up to hold off the five spiders in front of him actually crumbled and melted away as all of them had been simultaneously spitting their corrosive venom on it at the exact same time.

Jake was actually finding himself impressed by the strategies these beasts were employing to try and kill him.

With a wave of his hand, a dozen icy spears formed all around him as he immediately launched them at the spiders in front of him.

Instead of dodging to the sides or even temporarily retreating, the beasts shocked Jake as they charged into the spears and towards him.

Every single one of them ended up wounded and impaled. Two of them actually died to headshots from the spears, but the three injured spiders pounced on Jake simultaneously.

Three more spiders behind him did the same. Having nowhere to dodge to his sides, Jake did something he didn't exactly want to do while he was on live "TV", but he was forced to deploy his devil wings and lift into the air.

The six spiders coming at him all crashed into each other and were immediately confused at how their prey had just instantly vanished from in front of them.

With all of his enemies in one location, Jake formed a giant block of ice right above his head, draining a fair bit of his magical power.

He quickly slammed the giant block downwards, immediately on top of all six spiders, crushing them into the ground!

"Phew," Jake said out loud as he landed on the ground and rescinded his devil wings. That was actually almost a close one for him!

Meanwhile, back in the spectator stands, everyone was watching on a large projected scrying screen as Jake was about to be crushed to death under six Giant Acromantulas.

They were shocked when he deployed his wings and could actually fly in the air.
