The sight of numerous piles of the creatures' dead bodies filled the area and slowly dissipated into motes of light made the spectators who watched this unfolding scene on the screen dumbfounded and stunned by its sheer ridiculousness.

The grand tier 5 spells worked harmoniously together as they created an untold degree of destruction, killing more than a thousand creatures within the hordes and putting a slight stop to their advance.

Right at that moment, Klea's body fell from the sky as if her strings had been cut off. This made both Emery and Julian scream at the same time.

"Klea!!"

The two of them both moved, but it was Emery with his [Blink] who managed to catch her falling body. He spun around to disperse the momentum she brought while also placing her safely in his embrace.

Subsequently, he carefully checked on Klea's condition and what he discovered didn't make him happy at all. The girl's face completely lost its color while her body was trembling.

She stared at Emery, her eyes glazed as she slowly opened her mouth and said, "How… did it go..? ..Did I… do good?"

The latter nodded his head at her words while his eyes kept looking into her eyes. "Yes. Yes.. You did amazing."

A beautiful smile bloomed on the girl's youthful face. She seemed to want to say more, but couldn't because her mouth once again spurted out a mouthful of blood. This startled the others who now had surrounded the two.

Even though the Magus Game took place in the virtual arena, all the sensations they received were very palpable. Not just for Klea, but also for Emery whose chest was now painful as he saw her sickly appearance.

Out of worry, Emery cast [Nature Blessing] on the girl. He wanted to quickly heal and return her back to her prime self.

Thanks to the root-like energy of his nature spell that entered and slowly restored her condition, Emery could clearly feel the entire situation of her body, from the almost completely broken spirit core to the dozen number of meridians that were partially and totally wrecked.

However, what surprised him the most weren't those things; it was the huge bleeding gash on her back.

Emery quickly but gently pushed her body forward, allowing him to clearly see the wound. Looking at the three straight red lines that were still bleeding, he concluded that they were caused by the wyvern's sharp claws.

Apparently, Klea had been injured since the last battle but no one seemed to notice because of the chaotic situation just now. Furthermore, it hadn't fully healed when she decided to cast her destructive spells again. For her to force herself like this, made Emery extremely emotional.

The girl, however, still had her wide smile as she met his gaze. She then whispered weakly, "What... I did… was it… good enough for you?… was… I..?"

Her words suddenly brought Emery back to that fateful day nine months ago, to the mean things he had said to her at that time. The boy had just realized that the girl was more hurt than he thought that day.

He recalled how he rejected her that day and told her to focus on training, for the sake of reason that it would be better for their future.

At that time, did she think that he thought less of her? Was this the reason why she had been so angry with him? Emery's heart was beating furiously as those questions swirled in his mind.

Klea vomited blood again, waking Emery from his thoughts. The latter had given his best to heal her injuries, but despair slowly devoured him as he could feel her body continuing to break apart from within.

In the meantime, the hordes of monsters had reorganized themselves and were already closing in which prompted the others to start their fight again, against the seemingly numberless sea of enemies.

Julian glanced at the situation of the two with a mixed feeling and ended up venting all his emotions at the rows of enemies before him, smashing champions, ogres, and trolls without discrimination. The Roman began his second chapter of carnage in this Magus Game.

Emery noticed that the girl seemed to be starting to lose consciousness as her eyes gradually lost focus. He shouted, in an attempt to stop her from doing so.

"Stay with me, Klea.. Stay with me!!"

The light on Emery's hand intensified as he poured spirit energy to his nature core, increasing the potency of the [Nature Blessing] spell. He grabbed her hand with his other hand and muttered, "I am sorry.. I am sorr-"

Unfortunately, before he could finish the sentence, the girl had closed her eyes and her figure gradually turned to motes of light. He could only watch as her body slowly faded and eventually dissipated.

Emery remained there, kneeling on the ground as his eyes remained fixed on where Klea had been before. The sensation of Klea dying in his embrace felt so real to him that he was unable to comprehend what had just happened for a moment.

Then when his mind finally finished processing it, he suddenly snapped.

Emery punched the ground, creating cracks on it. He then stomped his legs and jumped into the air. His face was red, enraged by her death. He decided to vent his anger entirely into employing his strongest skill.

[Shadow Edge]

Swish!

A massive jet-black sword energy materialized and rapidly shot forward, heading in the direction of the creatures on the ground. It only took seconds for it to cut through dozens of enemies, leaving a gory trail of blood and dead bodies behind.

However, Emery didn't stop there.

He proceeded to employ another [Shadow Edge], unleashing another deadly sword wave toward the sea of monsters in rage.

Klea's spells were actually very effective against the goblins and orcs as they were instantly annihilated without being able to do anything However, it didn't have that much of an impact against the strong ones, which now causing the frontmost enemy to be the elites, such as the Orc Champions, Ogres, and Trolls.

Emery's [Shadow Edge], on the other hand, was able to one-shot them indiscriminately. The spell could even kill two or three of them while also severely injuring a dozen others around.

Simply put, it didn't matter which one they were, they would be guaranteed a one way trip to death's embrace as long as they were hit directly by it.

"Way to go, Emery!! Kill them all!!" shouted Thrax excitedly while laughing. Looking at the sight of his friend rampaging amidst the enemies made his fighting spirit kindle again, his body engulfed with energy.

Once again, Thrax showed his unique capability to boost himself at the peak of the battle. It was also at this time that a notification appeared in their mind, bringing a slight pause to their passionate actions.

"There is no more tactic!! Do you hear me, Thracian?! Just fight, and fight till our last drop of blood!!" The Roman shouted those words emotionally, to which the gladiator champion laughed.

"Damn right, you Roman!! Let's take as many of them as we can to the grave!!" replied Thrax as he swung the glaive horizontally, sending the few ogres before him to their brethren in wounded state.

Chumo didn't say anything, but it was clear that Klea's elimination had gotten to him. This was proven by the fact that the twelve clones escalated their assault and overwhelmed their respective sides of the battlefield.

A few minutes passed and the four youths could still be seen fearlessly battled against the endless waves of bloodthirsty creatures. Miraculously, none of the monsters managed to break through the circular formation. All of their attempts were repelled by the group.

Emery was now seen employing [Shadow Edge] relentlessly, discharging them without care of the world. Even though his attacks managed to decimate the rows of enemies in front of him, this deed had also destroyed all the tier 3 swords his master gave him, leaving him with only one last weapon - the tier 4 sword.

At the same time, he saw that all Chumo's clones had disappeared while his two other friends were exhausted. They were dyed red, due to the bloody wounds all over their bodies.

Thrax's legs were trembling violently. He looked as if he was about to lose his ability to stand. Even so, his fighting spirit hadn't diminished yet. In fact, it grew even stronger and apparent. Alas, his body condition wasn't able to support it.

Splat! The Thracian gritted his teeth when a saber struck his chest, inflicting a gash as big as the saber tip itself.

"Aargghh!!" Thrax couldn't hold his legs from taking a few steps back. Still, he quickly stopped and proceeded to launch a counterattack.

This feat dumbfounded the spectators who watched. After all, those who paid attention to him mostly worried whether he would be able to dodge the next attack, but then here he was swinging the glaive with a power none knew where it came from.

Among the four who were still fighting fiercely, it was Chumo who fell and lost his side first. With one side exposed, the difficulty the group had to face had just risen to a new level.

"Arrgghh! We just need a few more minutes!!" shouted Julian exasperatedly.

After saying that, Julian suddenly threw the hammer toward the line of monsters before him and used the last bit of his energy to cast a spell that he held on until this last possible moment.

[Fire Aegis]

A wall of fire emerged from the void and surrounded the group, protecting them from the onslaught approaching their way. Unfortunately, it was so thin that it could probably only last a few seconds.

Even so, these mere seconds were very important to them.

"Emery!!" cried Julian, "Take them away from here! Some of us have to survive!! We have to show those privileged assholes that the Earth acolytes can pass this level!!"

What Julian's spell gave the group other than temporary protection was the few seconds needed for Emery to cast his [Spatial Gate] and move to another place with the other two.

Emery seemed to also notice this as he nodded his head. He knew he had no time to waste in hesitation. Therefore, he quickly created the portal at one further corner where the elite orcs and trolls at the minimum.

As soon as the portal opened, Emery immediately grabbed the exhausted Chumo and beckoned the other two to follow along from the other side. Alas, things didn't go as he expected.

Julian shook his head with a smile while Thrax only gave a glance before returning his attention to the enemies. The latter even had the energy to speak, "Hahaha, no way I'm gonna let a Roman take all the glory! I'm staying!"

The last thing Emery saw before the portal closed was the sight of the [Fire Aegis] spell extinguishing and the two rivals battling the waves of creatures that crashed into them, overwhelming them from all directions.
