A Will to Live

"Your Highness, I am afraid we can get away from this. Not to mention that Menace will do much against them" Pukan said through telepathy.

"I know that already, but we don't have a choice, right?" Alfi answered.

"Then, what are we gonna do?"

"Ain't that obvious?!"

"Your Highness, I am sorry, I don't think my power is enough."

"No worries, this is just enough." Alfi is looking at his opponents, the 11 gods of the Death.

As Alfi has an interest in mythology, he can tell who his opponents are.

The one on the most left is a guy with a dog head. He wears a green tunic with a golden chest plate. He is wielding something like a whip made by a thin white loincloth. He is Anubis, one of the gods of Egypt whose job is to determine one's heart whether he would be devoured by an infernal female demon named Ammit or being offered to Osiris.

The one standing next to Anubis is a guy wearing a white tunic and wielding a yellow and black striped wand. His skin is tanned and he has a long black beard. He is Osiris, one of the gods of Egypt whose job is to send one's life to Heaven.

The next one is a guy riding a black cow. He is wielding a golden cudgel and he has something like a net on his back. His skin is blue and he wears a blue cloth that only covers his chest and arm. He also wears something like a white fabric on his bottom. He is Yama, one of the gods in Hinduism whose job is to punish the sinners and bless the innocents.

The next one is a muscular giant with a long white beard and a Viking helm. He is wielding a dark silver single-balded spear and he has a ring on his right index finger. He is Odin, one of the great Norse gods. He is also followed by 2 black wolves on his sides, and 2 crows on his shoulders.

The next one is Moros and Thanatos, so we skip them as we have seen them in the previous chapter.

The one next to Thanatos is a lady with long hair and she is wearing a torn-up black shirt and ripped shots that Alfi thought that she wore undies at first. She has long and sharp nails that would look like claws and her teeth are kinda big and seen to be creepy. She is Ker, a merciless goddess of Greek who is fiercer than Thanatos.

The next one is a tall, haggard guy with long white hair and a black top hat. He is Ankou, a god of Breton mythology whose job is to take away the dead. He is known as the omen of the Death.

The next one is a lady with long black hair. Her body is enveloped in a black aura that gives a gloomy look to anyone who sees her. She wears a white dress that is mostly stained by blood. She is Hel, one of the Norse goddesses. She rules Niflheim, land of the dead.

The next one is a lady in a white kimono with long black hair. Her skin is white and smooth. She has a traditional fan on her right hand. She is Izanami, one of the Goddesses of Shinto.

Last but not least is a skeletal female figure, clad in a purple long robe and holding a scythe in her left hand and a globe in her right hand. She is La Muerte, is a god of the cult with the same name.

"1 on 11. You won't stand a chance." Moros said.

"1 on 11? I think you've mistaken here," Alfi said casually.

"What do you mean?"

"This" Alfi is holding 4 Jepitrons in his right hands and throws them to the sky.

"KAGE BUNSHIN NO JUTSU!"

The 4 Jepitrons in the midair are turning into Alfi clones and they are landing smoothly. The clones are throwing another Jepitrons that eleven Alfis are standing before them.

"It's 11 on 11!" Alfi exclaimed.

"Not bad, not bad." Moros is getting his scythe ready. "It's Russian Roullete then, hope the luck god wins!"

Yet, suddenly, the ground is shaking and slowly, something like a wall emerging from the ground separating one to another.

"Isn't it fun? Having a fair and square match. The sinner VS the god of the Death. It's still my inner, which means I can do anything I want." Alfi said.

"Just go on with your nonsense as you are dead now!" Moros is coming to Alfi.

Moros' scythe is having a clash with Alfi's pelidi that it triggers a great shockwave followed by other shockwaves that come from the other battles. All Alfis are trying their best to not get killed by their opponents and the gods are attacking their opponents mercilessly. No matter how hard Alfi's clones try to fight back, they end up in defeat.

Anubis whips Alfi continuously that Alfi gets fainted. He then summons an infernal female demon, which is Ammit. Ammit then walks approaching Alfi and devours Alfi alive with her big mouth.

Ankou shouts aloud that Alfi's ears are bursting. He then grabs Alfi's face and crushes it with his hand.

FATALITY

So, which death suits him most? Well, actually, the real one has run away in the first place ever since Thanatos attacked him. Feel free to blame him. Please thank him for being unable to witness a great battle against 11 gods of death. What a coward.

"Kuh, guess they are stronger than I've expected." He sighed as he runs as fast as he can. "11 clones and all of them activate Menace. And that's not enough. I wonder what to do if they find me already." He sighed.

"Your Highness, are you okay?" Pukan asked.

"There's no way I am okay." He sighed. "Do you have any idea how to make me wake up?" He asked.

"I am sorry, Your Highness. I am afraid I have no idea about that." Pukan answered.

"I see. Well, we don't have a choice, do we?"

"Your Highness, I am sorry if I'm being so impudent, but why are you so eager to wake up just to save them? You do know that someone has pierced your body, but you don't give a shit about that. Instead, you are worrying them. Didn't you tell me that you don't care about anyone?"

"Well, Pukan." Alfi said without any sign of dejection on his face. Instead, he is smiling.

"I did say that. I don't give a shit about what will happen to anyone in our journey to protect this world. Protecting the world is not a negligible stuff. A protector doesn't quit. If he did, who would protect the world?" Alfi explained as he is running.

"That's not what I am asking."

"I know."

"Huh?"

"I am apathetic, yet it doesn't mean I am friendless. You do know about that, right? Megumi, Kartika, Pinto, Herman, Varz, Koji, Rian, Jeje, Cocong, Buriko, Aoi, ßenlong, Levi, and you. I am apathetic, but I still have those I care about most. I'd rather put my life on the line than seeing my friends suffer. I used to want to die, but now I have a will to live."

"Your Highness, you do sound like a real protector."

"Is it bad?"

"No, that's your duty, anyway."

"I thought you hate someone like that."

"I do, but I mean a hypocrite one."

"Like what?"

"The one does this job just for fame. He does this for money and sex. Something like that. Behaving like he is the most peerless, but deep inside, he is nothing but a garbage."

"Well, I am garbage for most people."

"Yet, you are honest and you deserve to be the Alfa."

"Heh, you just praised me, eh?"

"It's not a praise as it is the truth! I, Pukan, will give my best to be your weapon." Pukan said in a humble tone.

"Thank you." Alfi smiled.

As he seems to be soothed, Thanatos is coming to split him into 2. Alfi immediately pulls out Tipit from his bracelet and manages to block Thanatos's sword. Suddenly Moros is coming with his horse getting ready to rip Alfi with his scythe. Not only Moros and Thanatos but also the other gods are coming to Alfi for his life.

"Dang it! I am out of Iru already. I just can't dodge it!" Alfi said in his mind.

As they are about to finish the real Alfi off, Alfi is almost at the grasp of the Death, suddenly something like a green glowing orb comes out from his bracelet and it glows green dazzlingly. The light spread that the light itself shoves them as far as possible. As it glows, they can hear a very loud Levi's voice saying, "STAY AWAY FROM HIM!!!"

"This is not over, Alfa! I'll be back for your life!" Thanatos exclaimed disappearing alongside the other gods.

PANT

PANT

Alfi can't tell what just happened, but one thing he is sure about is, he is safe.

"What just happened? KUH-"

The orb is entering his body. He feels something shocking from deep within as if there is lightning striking him from his body. The sting is getting painful and painful that he falls over his knee.

"KUH-"

"BWAGH!" He coughs blood from his mouth.

His vision is getting blurry and he loses control of his body.

"I don't wanna die..."

"I don't wanna die..."

"I don't wanna die..."

"I wanna live..."

"I wanna live..."

"I WANNA LIVE!!!"

This is the very first time for Alfi to have a will to live. The only thing that made him find it is, his friends. They are the only ones making Alfi want to stay alive. His body is still getting stung by that glowing orb. His inner pain and misery continue.

On the other hand, inside the giant snake's stomach, Mammon is standing right before Franz and the fake Alfi. They are right inside the dark, stinky, and slimy snake's stomach.

"I thought you were dead. Not bad at all though." Franz said in an underestimating tone.

"Hmph, how bold of you to think that would suffice to kill me. You should have done more if you really wanted to kill me." Mammon replied.

Mammon's left leg is seen to be flame in leg shape. It looks like she has replaced her injured leg.

"You've lost your leg. Are you not afraid of getting yourself replaced by flame?" Franz asked.

"Heh, it's just leg. Don't lump me with inferior mortal like you!" Mammon exclaimed arrogantly.

"How cocky," Franz said. "Do it." He flicks his finger.

Alfi is coming with his Tipit and Pelidi to Mammon. Mammon is just standing there without doing a thing.

As Alfi is about to split her with his weapons, Suddenly his weapons are being sucked by the faces mouths set on her shoulders. She then grabs his face and burns it up that his head bursts.

FATALITY

What is going on with FATALITY in this chapter, anyway?

His headless body then falls on his knee and Mammon immediately kicks his body to Franz's side.

"You know it, already, right?" He asked.

"I know that your power comes from imagination, and as I thought, he regenerates himself." Mammon said as the body regenerates its head again and he gets up.

"Anticipation is the key." The flame in a big bird size appears before her. "Take this! FIRE BIRD!"

The fire bird is flying to their direction. As it flies, they can hear a girl voice shouting 'BURNING UP'.

Alfi is going to take care of that flame, yet Franz stops him.

"Let me do it." Franz said.

Franz then points out his sword and the blade turns into a generation of vipers is coming to the flame. As they hit, it causes a great explosion.

KUH

The giant snake is emitting smoke from its mouth.

"Smoke?" Belphegor said in wonder.

"It's Mammon! I knew she didn't die!" Asmodeus said in a relief tone.

"Oh dear, I did hope she died." Belphegor said.

"What did you say?!"

"Nothing. Let's cut that giant dicko snake!" Belphegor said with her dragon coming to that giant snake.

"Hey, answer my question, bitch!" Asmodeus exclaimed with her dragon coming to that giant snake.

Belphegor impales her holy lance to its body. As she just impaled it, her dragon flies making a distance from the snake while she summons another holy lance. She then impales it to its body again and again. On the other hand, Asmodeus' dragon is flying around the snake while shooting fireballs to it.

GRUMBLE

GRUMBLE

Mammon, Franz, and Alfi can hear grumbles from outside.

"Tsk, they should have done better than that. They must be laughing their ass off as I am inside this pathetic snake." Mammon sighed.

As she is going into spaces, Alfi and Franz have cut her arms with their swords.

"You let your guard down." Franz gives her a smirk.

"Oh, did I?" Flames are bursting from her body shoving their body that they crash the meat wall.

Mammon is seen to have flame arms with the red face set on her left shoulder and the purple face set on her right shoulder.

FIZZ

FIZZ

"Something is coming. Oh, right we are inside a snake's stomach." Mammon puts a smirk on her face. "You know, what is that?"

"Gastric acid..."

"Indeed." Mammon said. "As I remember, you can't escape with your power, right? One person, one power. If your power is animal manipulation, then I am afraid that chameleon doesn't go through things."

"You can' be..." Franz looks surprised as he knows what she means.

"And that impostor can't do what I mean here, right? Only the Alfa can use multiple powers. And, he is not the real guy." Mammon said.

"So you do know about this power."

"We, devils, always watch you, inferior beings, from the dark. Of course we do know about that." She raised her right flame hand and clenches.

Something like green liquid full of acid bubble is coming right behind her.

"Game over."

She launches her fist to the acid triggering a chain of great explosion along the body. As Belphegor and Asmodeus are attacking the giant snake. They can see that its body is bursting from various parts, like stomach, eyes, and head. They are bursting everywhere. As the snake is bursting, its mouth are wide open emitting Mammon, Franz, and Alfi before it's completely bursts. The remains of its body are falling everywhere that hits Belphegor bubbles completely which trapped everyone including Alfi.

They are falling crashing the surface. A bar of its body is coming to real Alfi's body.

"ALFI!" Levi exclaimed.

Levi immediately kicks Kartika off to put some distance and launches electric wave to that snake body that it bursts into small pieces.

Suddenly Kartika is coming sending a heavy fist to Levi. Levi just let Kartika punches her electric swordfish arms that her electric swordfish get crushed alongside her arms by Kartika's single blow.

Levi is shocked by seeing it. She didn't believe that a mere human could crush her hand by just a single punch.

"Looks like this is not a cat fight anymore. You have disgrace my dignity as a devil! I WON'T HOLD BACK ANYMORE!" Her sigils is glowing green and the sigil expands to the whole of her body.

"THE ROAR OF THE SEA! THE DEEP OF THE SEA! THE TERROR OF THE SEA!" Levi's arms are regenerated and it turns to be greenish black sword fish on the left and greenish black hammer head on the right. She grows a pair of greenish black stingray pectoral fin and greenish black stingray sting tail alongside with green jellyfish tentacles on its sides. Her eyes are turning green with black pupils, and her hair is getting green shades on her bang.

Mammon who just gets up sees Levi's on that form.

"That stupid bitch. Should her use that just for a mere human? What a simp." Mammon sighed.

She sees Franz is coming to her. As she is about to make a counter-attack, suddenly Varz appears hitting Franz's sword with his sword. Varz does have a serious look full of hatred on his face.

"You are mine!" Varz exclaimed.

"Really?" Franz said casually.

The fake Alfi, is coming to Varz, yet Mammon appears launching a heavy blow to that impostor that he get sent a few meters from her.

"Boy, I leave that freak to you! That impostor owes me a leg and a pair of arms!" Mammon exclaimed.

"This is for Alfi!" Levi is coming to Kartika ready to pierce Kartika with her swordfish.

"This is for Alfi!" Kartika is coming to Alfi ready to crush Levi's body with her fist.

As they are about to crush each other, suddenly, Alfi appears with silverish black aura around him. He is seen to grabs Kartika's hand with his right hand and Levi's hand with her left hand.

"Alfi..." Levi and Kartika said as their tears drop from their eyes.

They can see Alfi drips his tears too.

"Please... Stop it." He said in a low tone.
