Chapter 18: Chapter 18: Unlock [3]

I observed the four feralz as they occupied any escape route that I had, not that I was planning on escaping in the first place.

'Oh man, this is going to hurt...'

There was such a large gap between numbers and power. I also had to watch out for those two.

I sneaked a glance at Emily desperately healing Jun as golden lights surrounded them.

I grinned at my situation, barely able to hold my laughter back.

'I have to use that huh. I'm not even that compatible with it but it will do..'

While still keeping an eye out for the mobs, I quickly took out an item from my vrace as I wore it on my ring finger.

In an instant, two of the feralz dashed towards me while I caught that the ones at the rear were preparing their wind slicer skill.

I shot four consecutive bullets. Two to disrupt the backlines and two for the ones coming at me.

The two feralz at the front was directly hit at their chest as they staggered slightly.

"You've got tough hides but-"

I dashed straight at the one at the left and before it could react, I shot two of the remaining two ammos on it's chest at point blank as a sizable hole was created.

The other one didn't waste any time at all and clawed right through his ally just to kill me.

"Shit!?"

Even though everything was slightly slower for me. My body still couldn't keep up with what my mind was perceiving.

"Boruu!"

His giant claws cleanly cut at my arm that was put up as my guard.

"Ughh!"

Blood spewed but fortunately I had the Scale Ring on my finger.

An orange like barrier was shattered before the cut got any deeper but most importantly, the item had the effect of counter repulsion.

A mana impact suddenly occured which blew the feralz away from me a little.

Alas that slight window was all I needed. I ran towards it as I activated my class skill.

Two bullets revolved and got slotted inside the cylinder.

*Bang Bang

I shot at it's legs to throw it off balance and as I got right into it's face, I immediately aimed the muzzle at it's eyes then pulled the trigger.

"Boruu!"

Two large wind blades was rushing at me. I stepped back and tried to dodge it however a sudden feeling of nausea assualted me.

"Damn it! My eyes!"

It seemed that the world was going around in circles. I shook my head in order to stabilize myself although it was already too late.

I was able to glimpse a little of the trajectory of the wind blade, I could have steered clear from it but it was also aimed at the two people behind me.

"Bastards!" I moved in it's line of direction.

Another orange barrier shattered but this time it wasn't able to stop the second one.

It directly cut through the sides of my stomach. I screamed in intense pain as I clutched the fresh wound trembling.

The remaining feralz quickly assualted me to finish me off. I remained immobilize as I stared at them with my eyes slightly closed.

"[Reload Belt]" sparks flew off Sixth as it was fully loaded. 

I aimed at them slowly and they were able to steer clear of my shot path. They jumped from the right and left, their jaws and claws bloodthirsty.

"You forgot about the boom, you stupid mutts"

A mana impact blew both of them at the wall, stunning them for a few seconds.

Two blue streaks of lights pierced through the same spot of the skull of the one from the left, one bullet missing it's mark while I quickly sidestepped in order to avoid another swipe from the last one.

I threw an axe kick at it's neck. It's body struck the ground as it bounced mid air and then I aimed at it's head at close range.

*Bang Bang Bang

It flopped down, it's ugly mugg full of holes.

My knees eventually gave in as the pain and adrenalin of a life and death situation came to bite me. 

My vision was becoming blurry, screams of worry from a guy and a girl fading out in my ears. Blue eyes and silky blue hair covered my vision as I slowly blanked out.

-----

Golden lights and soft pants of exhaustion streamed in through my senses as I felt myself relaxing in comfort.

I slowly opened my eyes to see the same color blue before I blacked out. The feeling of a soft texture behind my head made me aware of my position.

It didn't take long before Emily noticed that I had opened my eyes and quickly stopped healing as clear exhaustion is visible on her face.

"Hey...are you ok?" a worried voice was directed at me.

"..Yeah I feel fine now. Thank you for healing me by the way"

I got up slowly, checking the slash wounds on my stomach and arm gone already.

"N-no! I should be the one thanking you!" she quickly insisted.

We were both sitting on the cold ground, our clothes in a visible mess.

"..I just did what needed to be done, that's all it is"

"But you still did all that..you were really.." she did'nt finish and looked down instead.

I raised my brows at her behavior but that soon became irrelevant as I noticed that we were all alone.

"Wait where's the idoi- I mean Jun?"

"Oh right! He quickly came to aid my other party members after getting healed" she said as she quickly stood up holding her staff.

"Oh so he did" I said nonchalantly.

I stood up too as I patted of the dust from my pants.

She took a quick peek at me before staring right at my eyes.

"..I'm really sorry but I need to go help my party so.."

'Oh so that's why she was acting kind of weird' I mused.

"I.." she bit he lips in frustation.

"You don't need to go help them though, well both of us can't even do that even if we wanted"

"I'm perfectly fin-"

I then stole her staff as her knees buckled down in an instant. I grabbed her by the shoulder before she fell though.

"See, you can't even stand right now. You and I used too much mana from that fight"

"But..."

I sighed as I gave her back her staff. 

"Didn't Jun already go to back them up. We need to quickly go to the exit. We are not at the right condition to fight, so the right course of action is to take the window that is open as of now"

She stayed silent as she couldn't refute the realities of our situation but Emily was still restless about the whole thing.

"The best thing we could do now is to secure our safety, you'll only be a burden for them at that point"

She looked down as she grabbed her staff tightly.

'...Ughh I don't really want to say it but..'

"Stranford. You already did what you could, be proud of that and besides Jun, Alice and Cross can handle those mutts"

I stared right through her eyes, my gaze unwavering.

"You need to have faith in them" I felt my stomach churning just hearing what I said.

'Well more specifically on the MC, he's already awakened now'

Her eyes widened, Emily eventually nodded to come with me.

We walked on as I lead on as the pathfinder.

-----

Jun ran the fastest he had ever in his life. Desperation could be seen in his face as he clutched a chained sword and a broadsword in both of his hands.

'What is this feeling? I feel like my heart's about to burst'

He then heard roars and battle cries of his party member.

Jun then turned the corner as he saw Lily with her rapier enveloped in blazing flames, Lily was currently fending off three feralz all at once.

He then saw Alice passed out on the ground behind Lily as trails of blood stained her face.

Lily was obviously tired and would it was only a matter of time before she ran out of mana.

Jun then gripped his two swords tightly as if blood would flow out from the force of his hold.

Mana finally flowed both pathways in his body, one in a reverse flow and the other, a straight flow.

'[Forced Harmonization-Gift of ********]'

A purple hue enveloped both his sword.

'...Maybe now I can finally...'

"[Blitz]" 

Jun instantly appeared behind one of the feralz and then-

"Duel arts [Chain Stars]"

He then consecutively slashed with both swords, the first slash was not able to penetrate it's defense however the second slash gave a clean cut through it's back.

Jun immediately turned his attention towards the other one and before it could strike, Jun was able to cut through its arms.

It bellowed in pain as both the surviving feralz retreated slightly back.

Jun rested his swords at his side, his focus unwaning towards his opponents.

His two swords had also lost it's deep purple hue.

Lily looked flabbergasted. She was unable to comprehend what just happened.

'He's dual wielding...' she thought.

Three of her earlier opponents was gravely wounded by the person she thought was the weakest in the party, no, in the class.

One was even taken down by him in an instant.

Compared to her struggle earlier his feats just a few seconds ago couldn't be compared at all. The notion itself gave a weird feeling to lily as she looked at the back of Jun Carter.

"How did you..."

Her voice didn't come out as she looked at her sorry state.

Amongst the tense atmosphere in the area, Jun opened his mouth.

"...Cross, I think I need a little help here.."

"....Huh?"

"I think that skill uses a hell lot of mana so..."

"....."

A defeaning silence came between them along with the savage growls of the feralz. That silence however was quickly replaced by a small chuckle from Lily of all people.

"You're really hopeless you know"

"Ughh" he grimaced

Lily and Jun then faced their enemies and readied their stances side by side, a slight smile forming on both of their faces.

Jun then held the sword he had acquired from  Ray according to Emily when she was tending to Ray's wound.

'This is one hell of a gift, Ray' mused Jun in delight seconds before they clashed with the feralz.

Little did Jun know that it wasn't a gift at all since it came from the broke young master of the Irisville household.
