"Well what do we have here?" A tall 6ft 6 inches man dragging the body of lifeless Jack said when he saw Hunter.

'He had many piercing wounds and some arrows that pierced his body but it looks like he is still fine.'

"Hey! Leave him right now." Hunter shouted demanding that giant guy to drop the body he was dragging by the head.

"Oh…. You are so weak that you can't even sense the aura. Hehehe. And you are demanding that. That to The Great Jötnar Hahaha".

"Young lord,.... Yo…u ughh… you need to escape."

Hens blocked his bleeding arm with his top he just took off.

I silently took the piece of broken helmet, stood in front of injured hens, in battle position.

"I'm not running away this time. I won't."

I can't run away. Even if I do there is no point in it. I can't run away all the time or rely on someone else to help me all the time. I need to get stronger and I can't do it unless I face those challenges.

"I admire your dedication but the reality is always harsh boy. Don't expect any mercy from me."

As the guy was about to move forward, Jack grabbed his foot.

"What? You are not dead." No he is definitely dead. I broke his airpipe myself.

Suddenly Hunter and Hens started to walk towards the other tunnel on their backside.

'What? What is going on? My body it's moving on its own.'

Suddenly Hunter realizes this feeling.

'Sky. She is here. No please listen to me, this is my fight. I need to fight my own battles.Hunter couldn't open his mouth to vocalize his thoughts.

Hunter started to cry as he realized that he was safe right now. Hens who was walking even though he was knocked out cold, looked like a zombie.

Please be safe. Both of you. Please James and Sky.

~Sky's pov.

She was standing at the largest building near the sewer tunnel opening.she was still in her maid uniform.

'First there were dead people blended in the city and now a fresh Wall breaker guy. God his aura stinks. He can't even control it and is running amok here. I hope Hunter won't be angry at me for controlling him again. Now let's take care of it.'

'Lets take care of this fool.'

~Jötner pov.

'Wait, Mana threads. It's all over his body. Those two, they are also moved by Mana threads.'

'Whose work is this?'

'Suddenly Sky jumps from her building right in front of the guy.'

"Wait, Blue hairs and Eyes. Hahaha Don't Tell me, it's the Eclipse sisters. So which one of you are you?"

"There is no need to tell a baby that it is gonna die in just a few minutes."

"Fine. I will get it after killing you."

"As you wish."

They both rush towards each other with the intent of killing each other.

~Hunter's pov.

'It's been a while since we lost our connection with Sky. I hope she is doing okay. At least Hens bleeding has stopped. He is breathing at the very least. I hope he makes it out. He still needs urgent treatment though.'

Hunter carries Hens in his back and starts to move in the tunnel further, Hoping it would end up in some opening.

After half an hour of walking, Hunter decided to take a good breather when he noticed a sudden splash in the water. Scared, he took out the knife from Hen's backpack, and was in battle position when something else came out from the water. It was none other than a

"Lizardmen?!!".
