Chapter 94: One hope

In the area, where previously the three youths got strike with a giant soil ball. 

"Good job on using this peace of shit our meat shield, Dylan!"

Previously, Dylan instinctively lifted Max up and used his friend who possessed regenerating abilities to become their shield.

"I'm sorry, Max! That was my instinct!"

"Bluegh!" Max cough up bloods as his back almost crushed. "Yeah! Good job you piece of shit! Now back on running again!"

The three youths are capable to protect themselves. 

Diana breathed a sigh of relief. She was more worried if anything happened to Uilya and Dylan. Because the only one of them who can withstand such an attack is only Max. But if anything happened to the two of that young man's best friend, he definitely wouldn't be able to accept that.

"You worried too much about them, Lady of the Wind."

"That because you're trying to kill them! [Red Judgement – Trident]!" 

Conor protects himself with his Infernal Arts; a dark, round shield that could withstand Treasure Arts.

Not like the three youths, which only have one ability, Conor's Infernal Arts is more complicated and flexible. 

"That is a strong Infernal Arts indeed."

Conor can use it however he pleas, and it seems that he doesn't get any harm from overuse.

"This is actually my first time facing an Infernal Arts user. Can I ask how does it work?"

While still activating his Infernal Arts to repair the Angry Golems, Conor kindly answered Diana's question.

"Not like Abyssal Arts, Infernal Arts use Dark Mana that grow from someone's soul. The pace of the growth of the Dark Mana, and the strength of the Arts is depends of its user."

"That information is very useful. I'm surprised you were so kind to tell me that."

"That because I will show you how big the anger in my soul; you cannot escape nor win from me! The only things await you is death!"

Conor declares that as he order the rises Eight Angry Golem to fight once more. 

Response to that anger, Diana holds the Red Sky Spear tight as she took a deep breath. 

"You are human! You can't simply decided other's death!"

The fight between one good and one evil Legend Hunter broke once more. 

Meanwhile, the three youths still running for their life. 

"Max, we are heading to the terminal, right?!"

"Yeah! Because that is the only way out from this shitty city!"

But there is one problem. 

"The only way out is blocked!"

The mine cart rail track is destroyed because of the previous first attack. It got buried with rocks from the underground walls. 

"What should we do?!" asked Dylan to his two best friends. 

Max and Uilya looks at each other, then together they scream at Dylan. 

"" Use your power, idiot!"" 

That was smart, but also mean at the same time. 

"Can you guys not bully me just once?!"

The three youths will take care of themselves. 

Meanwhile, the fight between two Legend Hunter will continue to the next round. 

"I shall ask you something, Lady of the Wind."

Conor casually repairs his eight giant soldier with his power. Meanwhile, Diana almost out of breath. 

"What... is, that?"

"Why are you so eager to save those three garbage children and even angry because of them? But you didn't seem angry at this city folks I have killed."

Diana tries to stand up straight and stomping the Red Sky Spear to the ground gallantly. 

"If I can use Arts, you are actually a piece of cake, coward. But you forced the situation to become like this and limit the action I can take. Also, there are no other kids in the previous Underground Folks group, so don't worry about it."

Diana is not actually sure she can easily win a fight with Conor, even if she can use her Arts. Moreover, Conor seems only playing with her. But she will definitely save the Underground Folks if she can. 

"But I won't regret anything! Even if it's only those three youngsters, I will protect and fight for them with all my might!"

Conor smiles, satisfied. "Then fight with all your might just to prolong your death!"

The Eight Angry Golem finally rise again, and they ready for another round. 

"Hurry up, stupid Dylan!"

In the three youths' side. 

"Moron! Take the one above first!"

Dylan is struggling to open up the terminal cave line. Meanwhile, his two best friends continued to force and scold him.

"I'm trying! Don't push me!"

He is a tender boy, scolding him will only make him feels worse. 

But that is their natural. Max can just stop his rude attitude because of the situation told him to. Instead, he had to use his flaws to force them and himself to move forward.

When they almost there, Max can feel there is something big coming towards them. He turned around, then quickly grabbed his two best friends cloth and throw them far behind.

"What are you doing, stupid Max - !"

Boom! 

Diana off guard, she lets one Angry Golem throw an attack towards the terminal.

"Max!"

That was Uilya. She and Dylan look safe from the previous attack. It looks like Max sacrifice himself to save those two. But that was okay, because one big soil ball will not kill that young high temper man. 

"Let's see how long will you going to last while protecting them."

The destroyed Angry Golems got repaired again. They won't stop as long as their leader orders them to continue fighting.

Not like them, Diana is a normal, super woman. But she still has her limit on how long she can still fight. 

"[Red Judgement]!"

However, she cannot even hit Conor at her state now. Her attack became weaker as the battle last long. 

"What's wrong? Don't you want to protect them?"

"Can't you see I'm trying!?"

The conflict between the two legends will not end before one is either given up or die. 

Meanwhile, in the three youths group.

"Can't you see I'm trying?!"

"Lift the top first, then the bottom! Don't you understand what priority is?!"

They still trying to save the high temper regenerating young man. 

When the soils that fell on Max only some more, Uilya pulled him with her whip. 

"Gotcha!"

"What the fuc - !"

The three youths finally saved their leader. But the problem with their only way out is still not resolved. They even have to start over again.

"Joooooooooooooooooooooohh!"

"[Red Judgement]!"

Conor is repairing his golem soldier, no matter how much Diana destroyed them. 

Diana's been trying to destroy the core of the golems, the Infectious Human body, but [Red Judgement] attack she launched since earlier is not enough to do that. She needs to focus on only one line ultimate strike. Also the problem is, at her state now, she couldn't focus on aiming for the core of the golems. Her concentration wore off the longer the battle lasted.

"What's wrong, Lady of the Wind? Tired already?"

If Diana can use Abyssal Arts, she will use her Divine Arts to match Conor's Infernal Arts and she will not that tired. 

"I went through the darkness before this. Maybe half of my strength wasted there!"

"Darkness? Ahh, you mean the Void? I'm impressed. Even though this place is the limit of the Void, you went through that gap without having your soul being dragged away. I heard only strong people can do it."

"Thank's for the compliment!"

[Red Judgement]

Diana still looks fine, when in fact, she could pass out at any time. 

"And I can see that. You're already at your limit."

"Wdym?! I still can do this all day!" declare Diana as she unstably stand up.

Conor smiles, and gives a pity looks at Diana. 

"Play time is over. While I still have to deal with outer folks, I need to end this now."

The Eight Angry Golems now focused at the three youths' direction. Then they start to fill their hands with soil. 

"No! Stop!"

Diana launch as many [Red Judgement] she could strike. But again, the golems will rise and focused to attack the three youths. 

"I said, sto - !"

Diana passed out. 

She regains her conscious quickly and finds herself in the ground.

At that time, the golems are ready to launch their attack. 

"Max!"

Diana called him. 

Max turned around and find Eight Angry Golem are raising their hands full with soil. Those giant monsters will attack them simultaneously. 

In the midst of the giant monster, face down their guardian. She looks at them with a worried face. 

In such a condition, Max knows their guardian is at her limit and can't even stand up. That can't be blamed. She had wasted her stamina since fighting them. Running out of energy while fighting Conor; One of the Demon King Commander is natural. 

Far behind, the Demon King Commander raised his stick; orders his giant soldiers to attack.

"Kill them!"

The Eight Giant Golem throw their projectile weapon to the three youths. That looks exaggerate, but necessary. 

"Nooooooooo!"

Diana can do nothing but to watch the scene. 

Even in such a situation, Dylan still digging up. But Max quickly pulled him and embraced him also with Uilya. 

The three youths are not losing hope. But no one will help them now, and Diana cannot even help herself to stand up. 

She will break her promise; to protect the three youths. Now she would let two of the three of them die.

-

Can't move. Can't even breathe. Just sleeping down there?

'No!'

Then what will you do? Letting them die?

'No!'

Stand up then. 

Cannot?

Want me to tell you what you have to do?

Is to seek a help. 

-

"I need to tell you two something!"

"What is that, Uilya?!" 

"Don't say fking stupid things!"

Diana knows who to call for help. 

She took a deep breath. Then, with all her remaining strength, she shouted one name.

".... Aaaaaaaaaaaaaarrrss!"

The three youths hugged each other, as their death is approaching.
