Sixteen floors have been passed through this far. Alfi, a pathetic loser whose fate is to be loathed by his own world and to be a protector of the world which loathes him very much, was thrown away to the supernatural palace of Ki Bromo by Delu-delu and he has to reach to the eighteenth floor, the top floor of this palace, to ask for Ki Bromo's blessing as the ruler of this palace so that Alfi can go back to his world. During his journey, Alfi has met new friends which are demons, Jeje, Cocong, Buriko, and Aoi, and a deity, ßenlong, a Warag Ngendog, a deity protecting Semarang city. All of them have fought together defeating tough guardians. Not to mention Alfi met his friends again, Kartika, Herman, and Varz, and the old friend of his, Leviathan, one of the Seven Princes of Hell representing Envy of Seven Deadly Sins. After going through so many battles, they have got stronger and currently, they are on the seventeenth floor. And the one they encounter right now is...
One of the Fatal 6, the yellow cloak.
The yellow cloak is still floating there, while Alfi and his party are still standing before him. The thrilling silence intimidates all of them especially Alfi. He remembers the stuff happening on Pandawa beach. Alfi was defeated and barely killed by Fatal 6 before he was saved and thrown away here. Levi can see his right arm trembling, she then pats his shoulder and smiles at him.
"Don't worry, I am with you." She said giving him a warm impression.
He smiles at her and nods. She then looks at the yellow cloak. She barely sees their face, as their face is hidden by the shadow of the hood. Even so, she or anyone is supposed to be able to see the face, right? Yet, they literally can't see the face of the one floating before them.
I use "they" pronoun instead of "he" or "she". It's because "they" is referred to the gender-neutral singular pronoun.
"Why are you here, human?! You do not belong here!" Levi exclaimed.
"How rude for a beauty like you." They said in a disguising voice. "I just want to perish that guy in a black jacket. So, can you hand him over? No need to fight, I guess." They added.
"Then, what if we refuse?" Levi said firmly.
"You know, actually I hate to get my hands dirty. I can just let you pass or even bring you guys back to the real world by handing the Alfa over for exchange." They said.
"You wish!" Something like a sigil (an inscribed or painted symbol considered to have magical power.) of Leviathan appears and glows green on the back of her neck.
The sigil looks like a crown with curly vines stalking to the top left corner, top right corner, bottom left corner, and bottom right corner.
She then reaches out her right arm with her hand spread to the front and starts enchanting a runic spell.

"
Something like a sea snake with black and green stripes comes out from her hand.
It's coming to them at a high speed and suddenly it bursts out of the blue as it hits something like a yellowish bubble that appeared before them.
Her sigil stops glowing and it looks like a tattoo on the back of her neck.
The party but Kaji and Rian is startled and wondering what just happened before their very eyes. They can tell that the bubble comes from the yellow cloak guy's Iru, but they barely tell what it is.
"What is that thing?" Kartika asked wondering.
"That guy, if you happen to know about him, he is known as 'Death Touch'. So the rumor about he can vanish anything around him isn't just a mere rumor." Koji said.
"But, what kind of ability he has anyway?" Herman asked.
"We are not sure, though." Rian sighed.
"I am not as reckless as you who think that every problem can be solved by a fight only. We were born with a brain and sense so we can solve any problem efficiently." Death Touch said.
"And we were also born with hands to fight!" Alfi, Koji, dan Rian are coming to Death Touch launching their signature blows.
Alfi launches black flame from the swing of Pelidi and Tipit, Koji launches flame from the swing of his greatsword, and Rian launches hazardous electric current from his hand.
"What a bunch of stupid Doki-doki users." Death Touch raises their right arm and those blows vanish before their very eyes.
Death Touch then flicks their right hand and Alfi, Koji, and Rian are thrown to the surface out of the blue. Seeing that, Levi's sigil glows green again and she enchants the runic spell.
"
$query = $this->db->query('SELECT * FROM kuasa WHERE id_dosa = 6 AND WHERE persenjataan = "Octopoda"')->row();
echo $query->persenjataan;
?>
"
A giant black octopus comes out from her back and its head catches Alfi's body.
"Thank you, Levi," Alfi said.
Meanwhile, Koji and Rian... They fall crashing the surface.
"Hey! Why did you just save Alfi?!" Koji yelled at Levi.
"Why should I save you?" She asked casually.
"FUCK YOU!" Koji exclaimed.
Death Touch raises his right arm and they can see the black flame, the ordinary flame, and the electric current gather over his right hand. Those attributes unite forming a yellow orb.
"I hope you won't die, Alfa." They said putting down their arm.
As the arm puts down, the orb descends toward all of them. Seeing that, Alfi draws the magic curtain and throws it to the front. The magic curtain flies catching the orb and Alfi is seen in the midair holding the end of the curtain that enveloping the orb within. With all of his might, he swings the curtain to the front launching the orb to Death Touch. And, as we expect, the orb vanishes as it hit that yellowish bubble.
"Prioritize to protect your friends, eh? How noble of you, but, can you take care of this one?"
Suddenly all of them see a lot of burning meteorites falling from the sky. Those meteorites are big and the fall so fast.
"Unmei da toka mirai tokatte..." Death Touch sounds like as if they sing a familiar song to me.
Hang on... FUCK YOU!!!
Alfi then throws the magic curtain to the sky and the magic curtain spreads covering all of them making itself look like a protective dome.
"I know that it won't do much, yet I have to enhance its durability with my Iru. I just hope that I could protect all of them." He touches the dome with his hands and channels his Iru to the dome.
Levi who sees that enchants the runic spell and her sigil glows again.

"
A giant black stingray comes out from her right arm. The stingray flies permeating the dome and stays over the dome letting itself get hit by those falling meteorites. The meteorites hitting it causes a thick smoke.
"Menace is a mode which enhances its user power significantly, yet it decreases his defense significantly for exchange. He won't mind if he has to get hit by those meteorites, but he prioritizes his friends' safety despite they can protect themselves. Alfi, you are really a nice guy." Levi said in her mind admiring Alfi while smiling.
As the meteorites seem to stop falling, the stingray flies back to Levi's body.
"That girl, who is she anyway? I can't feel her Iru. Is she probably a devil?" Death Touch said in their mind.
"Levi," Alfi said.
"Yes?" Levi replied.
"Thank you." He smiles at her.
"Yeah, don't mention it." She smiles at him as her face blushes.
"Alfi, got another plan?" Koji asked.
"Who do you think I am? Of course, I do." Alfi said.
Alfi then tells his plan to his friends through telepathy and they respond it positively. He attaches the magic curtain on his right arm and he has Tipit on his right hand and the T41 gun which has been turned into X-bow with an owl motif on its limb on his left hand. Not to mention there are eleven black orbs with sun motif on each of them flying around him, yes, it's Paw-pang. A pair of eerie wings also come out from his back. When he flaps them, the wings cause a heavy gale.
He then flies to the sky while shooting flame arrows from T41 gun, and black flame from Tipit. Not to mention the magic curtain is pecking Death Touch like a snake does, and those black orbs keep coming to Death Touch. Rian, ßenlong, and Jeje also join the fray by flying while launching thunder, flame, and blue beam to Death Touch. Levi is seen flying by riding her flying giant black stingray while shooting black flame from her mouth. Not to mention Kartika, Varz, and Herman shooting blue beam, wind, thunder, and fire to Death Touch. Those who are on the air assault keep surrounding Death Touch while shooting their signature projectiles, and those who aren't on the air assault also keep on offensive mode. Death Touch doesn't move at all, he is just floating there. All of the blows which come to him will vanish in a radius of 10 meters from his body. Alfi then suddenly appears before Death Touch ready to thrust Tipit to their body. When Alfi is 10 meters in front of them, he can feel something like a solid barrier field that he can't get closer. No matter how hard he tries, he can't get closer at all.
"What's wrong? Don't you want to thrust me with that spear of yours?" Death Touch said. "How can you attack me if you can't get any closer? You are supposed to be able to break this barrier field, right? Aren't you a Doki-doki user? Not to mention the fact that you are the Alfa. Speaking of a letdown." Death Touch provokes him.
"CUT THE CRAP!" Alfi yelled at them.
"Well, before you learn how to use your power, it looks like you have to learn to control the shitty mouth of yours." Death Touch said firmly.
The barrier filed shoves Alfi strongly that he falls to the surface hard. The thunder, flame, and light gather in front of Death Touch forming a quite big black orb. That big orb is falling to Alfi fast and bursts before him. He didn't have any single chance to evade it anyway.
When he thinks that he is done for, he finds Levi standing in front of him holding something like a giant shield that looks like a giant turtle shell. The middle of the shell has a quite big hole from that explosion and luckily it didn't do much to her hand, yet she looks in pain as she had to hold a great amount of damage from that blow.
"Levi..." Alfi is startled by seeing that Levi had just saved him.
The menace mode vanishes leaving Alfi returning to his usual look.
"You son of a bitch!" Varz enters his Abiofusi mode and comes to Death Touch while shooting gale and thunder to them.
Kartika and the others also join the fray by attacking Death Touch in rage.
"Levi..." Alfi sees her body trembling before him. "You..." Alfi feels guilty for making her sacrifice herself just to save him.
"Why?"
"*Pant* *Pant* Isn't it obvious, Alfi?" She said. "You always do something like this in every fight you encounter, right?" She added.
"But.."
"Look."
He sees all of them. They are trying their best to launch a blow to Death Touch. Varz and Herman in their Abiofusi mode, Kartika and Cakra with their guns, Jeje in his Jeje Kaizer form, Buriko who wields Morning Wood, and ßenlong carrying Aoi on his back, Koji and Rian with all of their might, all of them are fighting altogether against Death Touch. Death Touch doesn't move at all. None of the blow leaves a scratch on them as the blows vanish before them. Those who try to get closer are shoved to the surface hard by the barrier field, yet they don't give up that easily. They just keep coming.
"They are..."
"Alfi, I have been watching over you all this time. You act cool in the fight, but when it comes to your friends in danger, you become reckless that you will sacrifice yourself to protect them. It's a good thing, a pretty good one, yet, don't you ever consider their feeling when they see you sacrificing yourself just to protect them?" Levi asked.
"I..."
"You do that as they are your friends, right? You were born with a pitch-black fate that no one wants to get closer to you, and that's why you appreciate those who want to be your friend. You appreciate them that you will do anything for them including putting your life on the line, right?" She asked gently.
Alfi goes in silence.
"You may think that some people loathe you that they don't want to befriend you, but, as you can see. There are some people dare to put their lives on the line just for you. They just do something you always do when it comes to protecting them." She said. "You may wonder why they are so persistent that they end up like this. It's because they don't want to see you fight all by yourself. They consider you a precious friend of theirs." She added getting her hand off the shield and heals her own hand with her green Mana.
He then realizes it. That's true that he always sacrifices himself to protect his friends without considering any risks he might encounter, and now he sees his friends fighting for his sake.
Ever since he has lost everything, he has felt that no one will approve his existence. Yet, he is wrong, he doesn't need to fight all by himself. He then gets up and says, 'Levi.'
'Yes?'
'Let's back them up!' He enters Menace mode.
'All right' She smiles at him.
Her sigil glows and she enchants the runic spell.

Suddenly the surface is shaking heavily and an orca emerges from the surface taking Alfi and Levi to Death Touch. It opens its mouth and her sigil glows brighter that her whole body glows green. She then enchants a runic spell again.

Done with the incantation, She exclaims berseru, "Teknik Jitu: Suluh Samudra Ganda! (Ultimate Technique: Multi Ocean Torch)"
She and it shoots black flame from their mouths.
"Lemme help you, Levi!" Alfi points out Tipit to Death Touch and enchants a runic spell.

$query = $this->db->select("SELECT teknik_jitu FROM teknik_jitu WHERE id_user = '10' AND WHERE id_senjata = '6' AND WHERE level = '3'")->row();

"
"Teknik jitu: Ch' ch'nglui'ahog fm'latghor!" He shoots black flame from the edge of Tipit to Death Touch merging with the flame that comes from Levi and the orca. The flame is blocked by the barrier field before them.
"That won't do, there's no way you can break this absolute defense." Death Touch said.
But...
*CRACK*
"Impossible!" Death Touch exclaimed in amazement.
"That's true, your defense is absolute that it's impossible to break, but with Doki-doki, EVERYTHING IS POSSIBLE!" Alfi exclaimed.
All of them can see something like cracks on the field. The flame keeps pushing the field without knowing when to stop that causes more crack and...
*BREAK*
"NICE!" They but Death Touch and Levi exclaimed.
Levi is shooting flame from her mouth, right?
The barrier field is shattered already and the black flame is about to devour them, but...
That great black flame vanishes in a jiffy. All of them are wondering what just happened and startled to see the figure that appeared before Death Touch. The figure throws something like a blue beam to the orca. It comes too fast and when it hits the orca, the orca vanishes in a jiffy.
The figure is one of the Fatal 6, the blue cloak. He is seen flying with the flaps of blue dragonfly wings on his back. Yet, that's not what surprises them. The thing is, the man behind the blue cloak is Franz.
"Franz!" Varz enraged as he sees Franz's presence before them.
They know that Waku-waku won't move alone even if its one of the Fatal 6. But, who would expect that Franz is one of them all this time?
"Then want you to go back to the base," Franz said. "Let me take care of them." He added.
"Oh, how clumsy you are to reveal your face before them." Death Touch said.
"It's just a face, well, they won't be able to see it any longer anyway," Franz said.
"Oh, scary. Can you do that?"
"I don't need to listen to the chatters from the one that was almost perished by that trash."
"Tsk." Death Touch clicked their tongue. "Well, I will go then, but..."
Suddenly a yellow glowing barrier wall soars from the surface to the sky separating Alfi and his friends. The wall is transparent and glowing yellow, and they can't see the top of the wall itself.
Alfi and Levi are encountering Franz and Death Touch and the rest is on the other side of the wall.
Kartika and the others are trying their best to break the wall, but no matter how hard they try, it doesn't crack at all.
"Levi, lets-" When Alfi is about to ask Levi to break the barrier wall, he feels something impaling his body.
"You do always let your guard down, eh? Alfi." Franz said.
It's Franz's sword which blade expanded impaling Alfi's body. Alfi then falls laying on the surface and his vision is getting blurry.
"ALFI!"
"I've injected my venom to your body. You won't be able to move anymore, Alfi." Franz said arrogantly.
Levi who sees that gets wrathful. The sigil on the back is glowing brighter even more. The sigil spreads all over her body making her body including her knee, her arms, and her face is full of black lines that look like curved calligraphy. Her eyes are glowing green and her pupil's form turns like her sigil.
"I, Leviathan, the Prince of Hell representing Envy, with this I declare to perish you right here right now," Levi said in a flat tone.
Levi extends her right hand to Alfi and starts enchants a runic spell.

"
Something like green Mana envelopes a whole of Alfi's body. It cuts the blade and pulls it out from his body. Now, Alfi is asleep inside the green Mana that is healing him.
Levi then advances to Franz and turns her arms into black swordfish fast and directly hit Franz. Franz then blocks Levi's smash with his regenerated sword.
"Be careful, she's kinda a tough match for ya." Death Touch said.
"What are you waiting for? Stop the chattering already, and get back to the base!" Franz said while clashing his sword to Levi's arms at a high speed.
Death Touch sees Kartika and the rest are trying to break the wall, Death Touch then raises their right hand and emerging three figures before Kartika and the rest.
"What?!" They exclaimed as they can't believe the trio standing before them.
"No... No way!" Kartika said.
"With Doki-doki, anything impossible can be possible, right? I like that!" Death Touch said. "See you later." Death Touch vanishes before their very eyes.
The three figures are, Chorobot, Leak, and... Alfi.
Alfi is still unconscious. Levi is going berserk and now encountering Franz all by herself, while Kartika and the others are encountering Chorobot, Leak, and Alfi.
