Just when he escaped from his former path, a ghastly dark shadowy hand appeared and clasp as if trying to grab something, "I must say, you are quite lucky" Malcolm said.
"You almost got me"
"That demon you faced earlier, how good will it be if you are to face more of it?" Malcolm asked with an amused smile.
"You really are twisted" Master Zach shook his head as he knew what is about to come, a bitter battle!
Swoosh!
Two burly humanoids appeared simultaneously, "It's time to say goodbye old friend"
"Tch, even at my worst, two of that are not enough to take me down, I will have to keep living ha-ha" Master Zach summoned his fireballs again.
"But I never said there's only two of them, meet the third guest" Malcolm grinned.
Master Zach has already engaged the two demons, he isn't stupid enough to only start when the third one appear!
From the portal, another dark creature appeared when it completely descended onto this world, it has the upper body of a human and the lower body of a horse!
"Heavens, a centaur" Master is already entangled with the two demons when the centaur appeared.
Wounds started to appear on his body, the centaur is very strong as it leads the attack always trying to keep Master Zach on the defensive!
A blade pierce him on his side, the centaur has its forelimbs raised to crush Master Zach!
SHINK!
BOOM!
"Back off, you filthy creatures!" With those words, golden light spread out pushing the beasts back, the source of the light is a great shield that slammed onto the ground!
"Boy, you came back" Master Zach sighed.
"Of course, I am never losing you again" Lancelin grinned as his lance enlarge and float above him and Master Zach!
"You are bleeding!" Lancelin said with a worried look.
"Shut up, it is not anything serious, do you think I am a weakling?"
"Oh, your assistance has arrived but unfortunately for you the new demons are even stronger coupled with the centaur, your defeat is just a matter of time!" Malcolm sighed, they are just putting up a useless defense!
"Then I will just have to deal with the third creature" A robed man appeared with a katana on his waist.
"Who is he?" Master Zach asked Lancelin.
"He is an old friend, Ousuke, thankfully he is also here" Lancelin answered.
Flop!
They heard the sound of something dropping, its Ousuke's robes, underneath his robe, is a bare top with black pants, his body is riddled with scars.
"Shall we?"
Meanwhile at the other side…
"Good job men, we managed to defend, we might have win but we have lost many comrades too"
Kenzo is wiping the blood off his katana while Jack is sitting down with a broadsword at his side all bloodied and wounded.
"You are Auryn's friend right?" Kenzo suddenly asked to which Jack nodded his head.
"I haven't seen him around" Kenzo added.
"I also lose sight of him when the chaos erupted, he seems to be going Deeper and I am chasing after but due to the crowds, I lose his whereabouts, I just hope he is fine because even though he is calm, he is an idiot sometimes" Jack sighed.
"Hahahah I can finally go!" A rich merchant ran out of the group while pushing people around, it seems he wants to escape alone while they will serve as a bait!
"AHH!!!" A miserable shout is heard from the direction the man went earlier.
Parents quickly covered their children's eyes from witnessing such a gruesome sight, the man is turn into two by flying beast while his intestines fly out as they ate him alive!
"Such is the fate of anyone that is too greedy, our best chance at surviving is staying in this barrier" The soldier in charge said.
Just when the fighters are resting…
SCREECH!!!
Suddenly a large bird like beast appeared and with it came a new wave of terror as numerous beasts appeared like a never ending tide!
The atmosphere is very tense almost suffocating! This is a life and death situation, their chance in surviving just hit rock bottom , with injured and tired fighters on top of al that, some have already died and the morale is also at a very low level.
Kenzo stood up and walk towards the end of the barrier, seeing that, Jack and the other soldiers slowly stood and walk to the edge if the barrier!
"SOLDIERS! Let's avenge our fallen comrades and protect the people, for our fallen comrades! For our families! We have to SURVIVE AND KILL THEM ALL"
While they are having their morale boosted, Auryn has been killing monsters left and right and has gathered a lot of monster cores which he kept in the system or have Aurora eat some, he also find some clues About where Master Zach is!
"So that's where the main fight is, the one that cause all of this might be there and my Master will also be there" Auryn's eyes turn cold, he will kill that bastard responsible for all of this!
