A great warrior knows no fear, but also knows no anger. They know not to give up, but they also know not to be impatient...

Watching the HSR-esque Voidranger Trampler before them slowly lift his bow, it finally dawned on Natsuki that Borfin was no more–
Now before then lay one of the enemy's machinations, a Shadow Demon devoid of self, a monster set to hunt them
"SHIT! NATSUKI, TAKE COVER BEHIND ME! SKY OF TREANT!"
A gigantic treant emerged from the shadows of Vylara, roaring as it charged into the sky. It stood arms akimbo, branches shooting from its many orifices in its body, creating a dome from where a shield is generated. With a defiant stare, it retreated into the dome, its gaze never leaving its creator.
Wut da fuq? Is that Groot!?
Ignoring the Groot like treant that had appeared for a brief second, Natsuki quickly wrapped his arms around the slightly trembling Vylara, goosebumps visible on his arms. "Damn it, if I ain't blocking you, my name ain't Vylara Krismon– HOLY CRAP, IT'S TOO MUCH!!!"
Feeling a sudden jolt, he sharply turned his gaze towards where the struggling Elf(?) stood: arms trembling, trying her hardest to ensure that the attack does not pierce the shield and obliterate them on the spot...
But looking at the star of her blistered arms, it seemd that she would not be able to last long
Damn it, I won't fucking back down this time! I lost everyone cause I was too much of a wimp last time, but this time–
No one's gonna take those that are important to me again
RAAARRGHHH!!!
And the last thing Natsuki saw before being knocked unconscious was a soft green glow, covering the bodies of both him and Vylara...

Deep inside the empty cosmos, a jade-green gear is seen spinning, completing 11 rotations every one second. 11 etched words could be seen in the gear, glimmering in the dark impasse, ever-so-lonely...
Until a twelfth word began etching itself into the gear
––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––
"RAARRGGHHH!"
Feeling the burning green light thrust upon its face, the Shadow Centaur felt it's four hooves retreating slowly, smoke emitting from its body. Feeling intense lain, it halted its assault, instead gazing up, where it felt tremendous pressure radiating towards it:
A gigantic green gear, floating in the sky, emitting blazing beams throughout the surroundings
Fear crept in its static heart, unablebto comprehend the scene before it. Before either could even move another step, a loud, booming roar came before it–
"IF YOU ASSHOLES WANNA TAKE SOMETHING PRECIOUS FROM ME AGAIN, YOU'RE GONNA HAVE TO TAKE IT OVER MY DEAD BODY!!!"
Lifting Durandalibur into the air, Natsuki drew in every ounce of power from measly gear he had everything into this one last strike.
"I don't know whether I'll be sent into eternal damnation or not, but I know for a fact that with this, at least she'll be safe and sound. Take my finally strike, lawsuit or not–
DURAN-DALIBUUUUUUURRRRRRR!!!"
And with this final slash, Natsuki burnt the entire surroundings green...
