"uh?! Just right?!" Shouted Elie amidst the crowd. "We're gonna work with vampires?!
"Hey hey, this news is too heavy to digest ... What exactly happened while you were gone?" Ask Kate.
It was already five minutes after the Infinity Chamber was decommissioned, and the vampires returned to Rozalia's side. We humans immediately returned to the starting position, explaining the current situation to our other colleagues. But, of course this news was greeted with immeasurable shock.
The news of this cooperation raises many questions from those guarding the city. How not, this news is very contrary to our original plan to finish off the vampire messengers who are none other than the Zuan group. They did not disagree with this, it was just that this news was too shocking for them. To think that vampires you're working with a race like humans makes them dizzy.
Naturally, this is the first time humans and vampires have formed a partnership.
"Hey Louise's. Are you really sure about this?" Ask Guts. "Is this plan not too risky?"
"Guts's right. They are vampires. Surely they have other intentions behind this all," said Mr. Chezie chimed.
"Calm down, these people are trustworthy" Osamu replied confidently. "Most importantly, right now we have to focus on winning this battle ...."
"What about the plan?" Ask Kallen.
Osamu then explained all our plans from the beginning. He explained everything without missing a single small detail. As he explained earlier, the only ones who will advance against Rozalia are Kayn and Zuan who will be on the side of Rozalia. For the other forces, Osamu mobilizes them to keep the main line of the city from the vampires. Although it was done just in case, because most of the time the fight would happen inside his Infinity Chamber Osamu. They will only move if the Infinity Chamber is lost or damaged. And as for its main force, we will divide it into several groups. Each will face the rest of the noble vampires who are currently still escorting Rozalia. How they split up is part of Zuan, he'll figure out how. As a trusted vampire by Rozalia's side, getting them away from Rozalia must be easy.
Each group will consist of 3 to 5 people, who will likely face about 2 noble vampires. And of course, the existence of help will also be present to help in times of urgency.
When the other vampires split up and leave Rozalia alone with Zuan, that's when Kayn will come forward alone to face him. The goal is just to neutralize his counter. When the Counter was neutralized, it was Zuan's job to end Rozalia's life.
The plan seems pretty simple. But with this, hopefully this futile fight will be over soon.
"So you're going alone, Kayn ...." Ask Liana. Ah, he seems worried. "Are you willing to do it all by yourself?"
"Don't worry Liana, I will definitely be fine," Kayn replied with a wide smile. He said it with great confidence, as always.
Hearing Kayn's reply, Liana's anxiety seemed to be slightly reduced.
"Allah ... If Kayn says it like that then there's no problem, right?"
"Of course."
I hope what Liana expects is right. Anyway Kayn is still my brother, and my only family left. I never knew if we had another family or not, but right now he's all I have. I don't want to lose any more, even though he's a bitch.
Even so, I had a little bit of a bad feeling when thinking about what would happen if he went alone.
Trying to dispel that thought, I turned towards Elie who was currently staring out the window. The sunset light shone on his face covered in an anxious look. Like Liana, she was worried about something too.
"You're worried about something, Elie?" I approached her. Realizing my presence, he was a little surprised. "Are you scared?"
"No, I'm not afraid!"
"Don't lie. This is your first fight, so it's only natural that you're scared ...." My speech. Elie was silent again.
"I ... Not scared. It's just, I feel a little ... Doubt."
"Sorry?"
"At any time we will start fighting, it means bloodshed will happen ... I still have doubts about what I chose. Is this the right thing or not?" Her speech.
"Do you think fighting against them to protect your hometown is wrong?"
"No, of course it's not something wrong!"
"Then what else do you doubt?"
Ah, so. I know how he feels. This was the feeling when he first wanted to kill a living creature. Killing monsters and killing intelligent creatures is different. Therefore, people will feel guilty about killing intelligent creatures, even though they have long hunted or killed monsters. Even if the one we killed before was about to kill us. I'd be more surprised if he wasn't bothered by this.
"Relie ... You're not a killer, and you've never killed. Therefore, you may stop. It's still not too late to do that,"
"But, how could I back off and just shut up while you're all sitting there!" The reply. His sense of justice is quite high as it turns out.
"Then, what do you want?" My toot.
"I ... I want to stay by your side" he replied softly, a little shy.
"Then you must make your choice. Don't be afraid to kill, but don't let yourself get used to it ...." My speech.
"But ...."
"Ah, new child base ... What are you really confused about anyway?!"
Without us noticing, Zero had already appeared beside us. He must have used teleports to move next to us, that's for sure. He was already there without us noticing, leaning his back against the wall while folding his hands.
"Z-zero?!"
"If you don't want to kill, you don't have to kill. You think a fight can only be won by killing? Just do what you have to do, you have your own position, so decide what job you are fit to do. That's your role as a Stalwart, right?"
Elie was speechless hearing the long words from Zero. Well, I'm a little surprised too. Unexpectedly, it turned out that he could also give advice to his juniors. Is it possible that he's a senior figure of concern? But yeah, what Zero said was true. Elie's title is The Stalwart which means supporter. You could say he was a supporter. Fighting on the front lines is not the duty and expertise of supporters. Therefore, he does not have to kill every enemy he encounters, because his main task is to support the main attacker.
"That's so ... I seem to understand what that means. I just need to do my job as Stalwart by helping and supporting behind Zayn. Isn't that right?"
"You understand it too. Good," said Zero.
"so yeah. Thank you very much, Zero!" Elie.
It seemed, he had regained his cheerfulness. Thanks to Zero.
"I will always be by Zayn's side, helping and always supporting him! Because it's my job as a Stalwart! Not only that, it's my job to support the girlfriend I love all the time!"
"Woah, good spirit Elie," Zero laughed.
"That's great, but can you stop saying that out loud? That makes me a little embarrassed, Elie," I said. Fortunately, no one was free enough to hear Elie's words just now.
"Well Elie's job is to support. And protecting him is your job, Zayn," Zero said. "Remember that's fine ...."
"Yes-iya you don't have to say that I understand."
"It's good that you understand. It will be dangerous later if you continue to focus on attacking without paying attention to the back" said Zero.
"In addition, shouldn't you be looking for a friend to share the group with you, Zero?" My toot. "Have you got the group?"
"Ah right too" said Elie.
"Hmmm, well about that it doesn't matter. Besides I've found my partner," he said.
"Who?"
"You two of course."
"Huh?"
Righteous. So that's the essence of his arrival.
