Kapitel 6: Crumbling Hope
The situation becomes very chaotic very fast. The hunters scattered all over the place trying to look for any way out.
And then, all of the statues that already turned into soldiers of some kind started to move and attack them.
"Arghh what the hell?!"
Scream all of the hunters. This is too much for their pay grade. Those statue-turned-soldiers look like something from the history book they read in school time.
The jet black armor, dark as the darkest of night, almost like swallowing any light that in the same area as them. It's armor from the war against the Vampire and Werewolf era. The one that the warrior of the supernatural race was using.
Nobody has the time to ask any questions. Because they are struggling just to stay alive.
"Don't just scatter and scream! Fight them!" Artren ordered as he take out his sword.
One of the black soldiers goes toward him. Lift his sword that has twice the size of his sword. And swing it to Artren's head.
Artren uses his sword to block that attack. But the power behind that swing turns out to be too much to handle.
Artren drop to his knee. The soldier's sword cut through half of his sword. Artren immediately knows that this fight is hopeless for him.
"Bryna!" Call Artren.
On the other side, Bryna has already aimed his rifle at that soldier. And when she heard Artren's call, Bryna immediately shot that weapon.
'BANG!'
The bullet penetrated the soldier's head. Then it collapsed and turned back into a stone statue. That broke to pieces when it hit the ground.
Artren looks at his sword with eyes full of fear. Then he looked at his surrounding. Every single hunter battling for their life. But that is hardly a battle. It's a slaughter.
Time to go.
Rainn immediately realizes his situation. He will not survive if he chooses to fight this soldier in front of him.
That soldier has let his hand go. But Rainn knew that it will not be letting him go.
The pain in his right hand was unbearable. That hand is crushed to a pulp. It will not be the same even when he got the proper help.
'What should I do now?' Rainn looked at the soldier in black armor with fear. But one more emotion encompasses him. It was rage.
Rainn hates being the one who got bullied. He always tried to fight back even when he knows he would get his ass kicked.
But now, everything is beyond his capabilities. The soldier in front of him is not something that he can take. Like all those bullies in school.
Yes, Rainn can never win against those bullies. But he never let them just bully him freely. Rainn never backs down to them.
But now, Rainn only sees the possibility of being crushed to death. There's no way he could take even one swing of that sword and still be alive.
He bared his teeth because of hatred. He hates being weak. He hates always been the one that the world hate.
The sword statue that Rainn takes earlier still laying on the ground after leaving his hand. Then, with the speed he didn't know he have, Rainn grabbed the sword with his left hand.
The soldier moved to stop Rainn. But Rainn already got the sword. Then he swings that sword with all the power he has.
Rainn doesn't know whether that attack will work or not. But he just swing it.
Turn out, that attack slashed through the front body of that soldier. It doesn't move. Looking at Rainn from the red eyes behind its helmet.
Then Rainn saw the flaming red of that eyes slowly fade. And then, completely died.
The soldier turns back into a statue. And then broke into pieces.
Rainn looked with wide eyes. He did it. He killed the soldier with his own two hands. Well, actually with his only one hand.
He didn't believe the stone sword statue in his hand could do that. This stone sword doesn't have any sharpness. But, turns out, he could kill that soldier with it.
And then the stone sword started to blink with light. Some kind of writing appeared in the blade. That is a letter Rainn has never seen before.
Suddenly, the sound of fighting and chaos is gone. Leaving only the horror in the eyes of the hunter who is still alive.
The question emerged from them. About what the fuck is happening. Why is the black soldier suddenly stopped?
The soldiers in black armor stopped moving. And turn back into a statue. All of them.
Artren takes Bryna's hand then scrambles to the chamber's door when he sees a chance. Never looking back to the other hunters or even Rainn.
The hunters who saw Artren move then follow him to get out of the chamber. Again, never look back to the fallen fellow hunters who might still be alive.
"Hey!" Rainn screamed. But nobody looking back. He then cursed under his breath.
The writing on the sword's blade started to move to his hand without Rainn realizing it because he is busy cursing them. The letter then enters Rainn's hand.
When he looks back at the stone sword, Rainn realizes that the writing is gone. He throws the stone sword to the ground and started to run.
The cave chamber suddenly trembles. The white wall cracked. Rainn looks at his surrounding. He knew the cave chamber will collapse. Rainn started to run faster.
Almost all of the hunters have already made out the cave chamber. They don't look back to Rainn at all. Either they don't know Rainn was there, or they just don't care.
"Hei! Wait for me!" Rainn screamed again. The pain in his right hand getting worse. Rainn feels that he will faint anytime soon.
But Rainn doesn't want to be buried in this cave. Become a dead body that no one will remember. Again, life seems just hate him. Even now, life doesn't want Rainn to have a proper death and a proper burial.
Rainn keeps running. The door is just a few meters in front of him. Nobody waits for him. But he will make it. He has to make it.
The ceiling of the cave chamber fell. Rainn feel the pain when his legs were crushed. His vision blurred as he saw the last hunter make it outside this chamber.
