Dario looked at Miko with eyes filled with rage.
The one who caused this entire event was none other than Miko.
If it wasn't for him, Dario would still be king and wouldn't need to risk his generals, who he worked hard to groom.
It was also Miko who orchestrated his collaborator, Darius’ demise.
Miko was a major thorn in his side.
Marco on the other hand didn't look at Miko with hate. He instead recalled his orders from his father.
‘I'm suppose to kill Leon along with Miko. But it would be bad for me to leave Dario to these two.’
He scratched his head with a troubled expression.
‘It would be great if I could quickly kill Miko with Dario's help like planned, but….”
He looked at Luka.
‘This girl’s presence is troublesome. She's pretty strong herself, and she's obsessed with killing Dario. Which means that she will accompany Miko everywhere, since Dario will naturally target Miko. Because of that killing Miko will be a lot harder, which means I won't be able to face Leon in top condition. Not to mention, I planned to kill Leon before teaming up with Dario to kill Miko, since if I kill Miko first the game will end without me being able to kill Leon.’
Marco had a slightly annoyed expression as he frowned.
‘Ah, it would be great if Leon was here right now with a General chasing him. That way I'd be able to kill two birds with one stone.’
*Boom!*
Something suddenly fell from the sky and landed behind Miko and Luka.
When they looked back they saw Leon stuck in a building wall.
“My lord!”
They looked back in front and saw a dark skin man with white hair kneeling in front of Dario.
It was obviously General Han.
“My lord, it's good to see that you're still okay in the face of the enemy.”
“.....Well then, looks like my prayers were answered.”
Marco mumble to himself.
Dario looked at Han with a satisfied expression.
Han was his strongest and most faithful General. With him here it should be easier to kill Miko and Luka.
“You did good Han. I was actually in a bind, but with you here it shouldn't be a problem.”
“I see. Then I'm glad to be at your service.”
After he said that he looked at Miko and Luka.
Miko looked at him with indifference and turned to look at Leon.
“You know, when I said fight away from her I didn't mean this far.”
“It wasn't my fault. He kept widening the scale of our fight.”
Leon stood up as he said that.
“Well, not that it matters.”
Miko turned back and looked at Marco.
“The number of people that we have to kill just rose that's all.”
Miko took two swords from the storage ring on his finger.
He then covered his body in thick Demonic Qi, which covered and strengthen his blades as well.
“Just kill who you want to kill!”
*Boom!*
He kicked off the ground with such force that he broke the ground.
Luka and Leon followed behind.
Miko rushed towards Dario with bloodlust eyes.
Dario readied his saber for a fight.
“Heh.”
However, Miko suddenly smirked and changed directions and rushed towards Marco.
“?!”
Behind him was Luka with two black combat knives.
She swung the knives at Dario's neck, while Miko slashed down on Marco.
*Boom!* *Boom!*
Marco and Dario blocked their respective attacks with their sabers.

Marco leaped back and thrust his blade at Miko's neck.
Miko parried it and stepped in with a thrust aiming at Marco’s eyes.
Marco kicked him away and slashed at Luka, who was going to attack Dario again.
*Boom!*
Luka was blown back.
“Die!”
Han appeared in front of her swinging his axe.
*Boom!*
However, Leon blocked the axe from hitting Luka with his own axe.
Leon pushed Han back.
At that moment, Dario appeared from his blind spot and like a snake, thrust his saber towards his neck.
*Boom!*
Leon blocked it with the side of his axe.
Marco also took the chance to attack Leon.
“Fuckoff Kick!”
*Boom!*
But Miko came out of nowhere and kicked him in the face again.
Marco was sent flying back.
Han took the moment while Miko was defenseless from kicking Marco, to slam his axe on Miko's side.
*Boom!*
“Guh?!”
Miko was sent flying to the side, instead of being cut in two.
That was because he covered his side with scales in the nick of time.
Han chased after Miko and swung his axe down.
Miko slashed his right sword upwards.
*Boom!*
The force of the collision sent him crashing into the ground, while Han was blown up in the air.
At that moment, a shadow was moving on the ground like a snake.
The shadow appeared under Dario, and Luka flew out stabbing towards his chin.
Han saw that and threw his axe which blocked Luka's attack with perfect timing.
*Boom!*
However he left himself open for Leon's axe strike.
“Guh?!”
The axe cut inside his stomach.
“Haah!”
But unbelievably, Han used his abdominal muscles to stop the axe from cutting all the way through.
*Boom!*
He swung his leg and kick Leon under the chin. Leon's vision blurred.
At the same time, Dario entered a close melee with Luka.
*Boom!*
Luka's knives that were coated with Qi, clashed with Dario's saber.
Luka leaped back and rushed forward.
Dario thrust his saber, Luka twisted around the strike like a snake and stabbed at his face.
Marco quickly grabbed Dario and threw him back.
*Boom!*
Marco hit Luka with a palm strike to the face.
“Ugh?!”
Luka was blown back with blood spraying from her nose.
He then followed up with a palm strike over her heart.
*Boom!*
Crimson light spread through Luka's body and forced her into the ground.
He then stab his saber at her throat.
“[Ice Mountain]!”
*Boom!*
Marco suddenly found himself being forced away by ice.
He jumped back and saw that Luka was covered by an ice mountain.
“[Fire Dragon’s Roar]!”
“?!”
Marco quickly jumped and barely dodged a huge blast of fire.
But Miko still appeared in front of him while he was in the middle of his jump.
“[Flame Bazooka]!”
*Boom!*
Miko slammed his palms on Marco’s chest, and a blast of blue flames blew him away while burning his body.
*Boom!*
Marco was sent crashing into a building.
“Miko!”
Luka wrapped a shadow rope around Miko's body and pulled him towards her.
An flying axe past the spot Miko was just in.
“Tch!”
Han clicked his tongue when he saw that his attack missed.
*Boom!*
Leon who was on the floor a few moments ago, quickly stood up and punched Han across the face when he wasn't looking.
His fist was coated with earth, so it was very heavy.
*Boom!*
He lifted him of the ground with an uppercut.
“[Crimson Fist]!”
*Boom!*
He then slammed his fist, that was glowing crimson, in Han’s stomach.
“Cough?!”
Han coughed up blood as he felt like his organs were crushed.
He was sent flying.
“Han!”
Dario quickly ran caught him before he accumulated anymore damage.
“Thank you, my lord.”
“A king saving his subjects, how nice!”
Miko appeared at Dario's front, while Luka appeared at his back.
They both thrust their weapons forward.
“[Crimson Defense]!”
A crimson light quickly appeared and formed a barrier around Dario and Han, which blocked Miko's and Luka's attack.
This gave Dario and Han the second they needed to recover.
Han covered his fist in darkness and punched out at Miko.
Dario activated [Dragon Rage] and sharpen his aura like a spear and attacked Luka with it.
Miko covered his fist in lightning and flames and slammed his fist against Han’s.
*Boom!*
While Luka activated her own aura and copied Dario.
*Boom!*
Miko and Han entered a brutal fist fight, while Luka and Dario clashed with their aura.
Marco who was the one who protected them with the crimson barrier, took this chance to attack Leon.
He didn't use his saber.
He instead covered himself with crimson aura.
Leon saw him and also covered himself with crimson aura.
He kicked off the ground and rushed to meet him.
*Boom!*
Marco jumped and kicked Leon in the chest.
Leon grabbed his foot and twist it, but Marco twisted his body with the leg, and slammed his free leg on Leon's face.
*Boom!*
Leon was forced to let go and step to the side.
Marco was agile. He immediately hit Leon with a palm strike under the chin, and rattled his brain.
Leon felt his balance was obstructed, but wasn't able to react in time to defend against a punch to the chest.
*Crack!*
Leon heard his chest plate broke.
Marco then thrust his hand forwards to rip his heart out.
However, he grasp air because Leon's forcibly bent his back and swung his leg up.
*Boom!*
Marco was lifted off the ground with a kick under the chin.
Leon fell on his hands and pushed his body off the ground to distance himself.
Crimson wings then spurt from his back.
“[Bullet Train]!”
*Boom!*
Leon body shot off like an arrow, while covered with crimson aura.
He looked like a beam of crimson light.
*Boom!*
He slammed his body into Marco.
“Cough?!”
Marco literally felt the air hit out of him.
He was sent flying through a couple buildings and bounced off the streets.
Leon chased after him and swung his axe.
“Don’t underestimate me, brat!”
*Boom!*
Marco punched the side of the axe and change its path.
He then headbutt Leon.
*Boom!*
Marco's glasses was completely shattered, but he didn't seem to care.
A crimson ball off light appeared in his hand.
“[Devil Ball]!”
*Boom!*
He slammed the ball on Leon's chest, and demonic light pierced through his chest and destroyed the building behind him.
“Yes!”
Markus cheered when he saw the hole in Leon's chest.
But he soon froze when he saw Leon grabbed on to Marco's shoulder with bloody hands.
“….Hello!”
Leon's eyes were a beastly red and his cornea were black.
*Boom!*
He slammed his fist in Marco's face.
*Boom!*
Marco flew through several buildings and crashed not too far away from Dario.
“Marco!”
Dario increased his aura and forcibly pushed Luka away.
He then quickly grabbed Marco off the ground, and slapped him awake.
Marco opened his eyes.
“?!”
He pushed Dario out of the way, and drew his saber and swung it.
*Boom!*
His saber clashed with Miko's twin swords.
Dario moved to help out, but Luka slashed towards his neck with her claws.
*Boom!*
He swung his saber to block it.
*Boom!*
At that moment, Leon blew up a building with his aura and rushed towards them.
“Like I'll let you!”
Han rushed forward and blocked his advance with his axe.
*Boom!*
The six were in deadlocks.
Seeing this, Dario-
“Marco, take care of Miko! Han, take care of Leon! I'll handle this girl!”
“Yes!”
Han and Marco used their full strength and sent their opponents flying in separated directions, and chased after them.
“Looks like you'll get your chance at revenge, Luka Flameheart! You better hope you didn't bite off more than you can chew!”
Dario said.
“Just what I wanted!”
Luka's eyes flashed with hate and resolve.
“Either you or me! One of us will die today!”
