Chapter 8: Pump Vs. Mini
"Rogue Buff activation!" Reducing his defense and attack power by 10% and increasing his attack speed by 10% with this buff, Mini stepped in front of Pump, drawing a half-moon with his lower-level sword in his hand.
Being a weak attack compared to Pump's power, he didn't back away but stopped where he had last stepped and stared at Mini disgruntled. "Who do you think you are!?"
"No one…" Mini replied in a weak tone.
"Stop the philosophy! Do you think you're stronger than me!?"
"No… I don't… But I think I can slow you down enough for them to escape."
"You don't even have the strength to deserve this arrogance. And if you think I'm a bad guy, you should look at yourself in the mirror. Your eyes are just as bloody as mine! You are a murderer too!"
"Yes.. I am…"
"Damn you! Ok, let's see what you have got!!!"
Both rivals began to look at each other with bloody eyes.
Pump and Mini were about to go on full attack against each other when they were startled by an unexpected activity for both of them.
"VATOOO!!!" Pump yelled, looking back as if he was mad with anger.
More than 5 players appeared soon after Pump shouted loudly. It was clear from their crest that this group, dressed in top-quality armor, was from the BRE alliance. And Vato, at the very front of the group, had darker red eyes than Ahmed, Pump, and Mini. But something was wrong with him. There was no life in his eyes…
"YOU BASTARDS, YOU CAME TO STEAL MY PREY!!!"
After Pump's second sentence, Vato and the other BRE members rushed towards the gate of GBR Keep.
Mini made a move to follow the group, but Pump quickly shifted and blocked his path. "No, no, no… You made a challenge, you'll make it to the end!!!"

This time, seeing that Mini was unable to retreat, Cloak changed his direction of attack and wanted to head toward the GBR Keep.
"You are coming with me, Cloak…FAFNIR!!!"
As Ahmed shouted, a bright blue object appeared in the sky and quickly dived toward them. Cloak would try to escape, but in just two seconds, reaching their location, the eerie dragon clutched Cloak with its sharp claws and got him 500 meters away, throwing him to the ground.
Ahmed walked confidently to where his dragon and Cloak were.

*** Meanwhile, GBR Keep Wall ***
"THEY ARE COMING!!!" Having safely taken in the GBR members who had fled from the battlefield, the soldiers called out to the high-ranking member above the Wall. They had seen BRE members approaching.
"GOOD! DON'T WORRY, MY FRIENDS! I SENT A MESSAGE TO OUR LEADER, HAITES, HE WILL BE HERE SOON. WE WILL PROTECT OUR ALLIES UNTIL THEN. NOW PREPARE TO MAKE GHOST ATTACKS ON OUR ENEMIES!!!" Another R4 staff of GBR Alliance, Cave took command in front of the Keep Wall.

"Tsch! You are such a weak!" He said and aimed the red Ouroboros' Sword at his opponent 10 meters ahead of him. "Now, die!!!" The red mist that formed around his sword first descended rapidly and sank to the ground. It then started a slight ground shaking, accelerating underground, heading towards Mini.
Mini started running towards Pump, ignoring the oncoming subterranean object. As the object accelerated, it began to scatter the soil above it toward the sky. When he was 1 meter from the object, he suddenly changed direction at a right angle and then made S's with his steps and entered a giant arc orbit around Pump.
"What absurd moves are you making?" Pump, who didn't move at all, watched Mini's aimless approach and departure, wiggling his bloody pupils.
However, Mini continued to run without speaking, as the subterranean object he had just escaped from its radar was changing direction and continued to follow him, accompanied by clouds of dust.
This time, Pump pulled out the large red Ouroboros' Axe from his back and swung it with a slight bow towards Mini, who was still running behind him. Pump had actually cut off the air as they were more than 20 meters apart, but the red mist that formed in the air began to rapidly move towards Mini.
Mini was now under attack by two invisible objects, both underground and airborne… "
"Too weak…" Pump bent down on only one knee and positioned his Ouroboros' Axe above his head, stopping the oncoming attack. And at the same time, he swung the Ouroboros' Sword in his other hand at a wide angle, creating a deep rift in the back of Mini, who had just begun to move away from him.
"ARGGHHH!!!" Rolling to the ground in pain, Mini had just slid to a stop when he noticed a shadow in the sky.
"Farewell…" Just 1 second after cutting Mini, Pump, who had teleported 5 meters above where he had fallen, landed on the ground like Thor's axe and caused a giant dust cloud to appear.

The young man, hiding in a secluded place only 500 meters behind them, was watching the battle with uneasy eyes. "Damn, the situation is getting worse! I followed Pump for hours, hoping I could catch him off guard and kill him. Then when the war here started, I gave up on making moves, thinking they could beat Pump and Ahmed… However, it seems that GBR will also lose the war… I do not want to do this but I do not have a choice…" The young man took some kind of tiny device out of his pocket, resembling equipment in apocalyptic movies. "I hope I don't regret doing this." And then he pressed the speaker-like button and started speaking.

A system warning screen popped up again for all players in this world.
— [WORLD CHAT IS ACTIVE] —
"I am calling out to those who still have not lost their humanity in this fake world! Your trusted friend, Ocean is talking.
Our dear friends, Miha of BRE, Canosfer of RES, PapaBear of WAR, Ruby of XJX, Kisperia of WTV, and Hina of GBR Alliance have reached at least.
But we are under the attack of a very powerful faction here and need your help. All the prodigies who stood against this System! Please come to the GBR Hive and help us!
But hurry up please, because everyone is reading this broadcast, not just you. Countless people with hostile intentions will also come here and this place will soon turn into a bloodbath."
