45 Death God

Tari could feel that something was going on, but he didn't know what exactly was going on because of one crucial detail, "Hey, hey, can anyone fill up the blind demon?"

'Oh yeah, he's blind… I kinda forgot about that.' Isaac commented.

"The Knights and Seekers are gathering, about 3 kilometers away from us." Davil explained as he used his fingers as a telescope, "There are approximately 70 or so people and are scattering around us. Their lowest level is 415."

"What!?"

"I said we're going to die… but that's against the matter. How did they move so fast? I made sure to target their rations and injured just as much… Dammit, why are they appearing out of nowhere? And it hasn't even been two hours, how did they mobilize so many in such little time?" Davil was confused.

"You're seeing this differently... I think what you guys did is why they are moving so quickly." said Isaac, "You destroyed their base, injured so many and then destroyed their rations. They are desperate and the Leaders of this Campaign are the leaders of the generation. They are one of the brilliant ones and must have used their victory and enmity for losing and hurting their friends and companions. You tried to cripple them, and it's going to work, but they are acting like a warrior on his last leg, functioning solely on adrenaline."

Isaac watched the quickly rising fire and the smoke becoming thicker, "The ones in this campaign are dedicated to claiming your heads and killing Mia. They are already out leveling us, and they are now more cohesive with adrenaline, then, they will overpower us.They know they can't fight at their current conditions, but this plan is devised for a quick siege… we're in a deep shit. In five minutes we're going to be cooked alive while they grow stronger."

"Do you know what they're going to do?" Davil asked, confused and worried.

"They're going to burn a portion of the Forest and trap us."

"What!? Who's the madman who devised that plan!?"

"Sorry about that."

Tari and Davil could very well hit Isaac, but they had no right to. He was out of the loop and for all he knew, he was going to kill a malignant tumor to save millions in the Continent, "Tari, we need to get Mia out of here." Davil opted for them to leave.

"You know we can't do that. If we could, then we wouldn't be in this situation in the first place.. Like I said, Mia needs time to accumulate the essence of life or else she will only collapse. She has a lot of mana in her but that's not vitality. We have to hold on and just absorb the vitality of the forest and until then, we can't leave." Tari explained.

But, Isaac knew his plan was never going to come to fruition. His plan was designed to inhibit the ability of the Anarchy Lord to heal and awaken, and the withered trees would become great kindlings for the fire.

The only variable Isaac could not control was the exact reaction of the monsters, the plans of the Generals - Davil and Tari - the weather, the unity of the warriors, and responses of the enemies as well as their hidden trump cards.

'Now that I know who they are… I am pretty sure that my plan will kill them in five minutes after the fire burns. When Xerxes begins and Talon follows, everything would fall.' The only way for Isaac to leave was to abandon the two.

He looked at their distress hours and then threw everything into the wind.

"Bah, fuck it! Hey, you two, do you really want to help the lass?" asked Isaac all of a sudden and raised the obvious question. No words were uttered but an answer was given, "If all you need is vitality then I can give you something that has the essence of the Fae…."

"Hmm? What are you doi-ISAAC! What are you doing!"

"Hey, hey, what's happening!? I can feel something growing."

Davil could not even react quickly enough to stop him. Because before Davil could register his action, ISaac had already brought out a hidden knife from his sleeves and cut his chest wide open, "What's happening!? Isaac stabbed his heart chest with a fucking knife, that's what!"

"WHAT!? Brother, stop!! What the hell are you doing!? Have you gone mad!? Shit, stand back, I'm going to accelerate his healing and-"

"Stop… or this pain would've been for nothing." Isaac stopped Tari with a stern voice. Isaac winced in pain as he cut open his chest and then plunged his hand on the open wounds. Blood splattered on the ground, litters upon litters spilled.

"You're going to die!" Tari shouted.

"Oh… shut up… it's not that… bad. Just know… you two… owe me… for thi~Ngn! FUCKKKKKKKKKKK! It hurts! I take… that back… it hurts! SHIT!"

Isaac screamed at the top of his lungs echoing far and wide. But, he did not stop and just pushed forth!

From his chest, Isaac pulled out a shining white pearl that shot a bright white light illuminating everything like it was still day. The pearl was pulled out of Isaac's body yet it was not tainted with his blood and as Davil looked in horror, Isaac snapped them out of their trance by saying, "This… is the… Regal Pearl… it contains the soul of life essence of ten thousand… and if you crush it you would be given boundless strength, mana, and nigh invulnerability for ten seconds. It's my trump card… but I'm giving it to you… and holy… shit… too… much… exposition… dying…. need…..healing~"

Davil caught Isaac and placed him down, "Tari, cast Refreshment!"

Isaac fell and Tari used his spells to cast the spell [Refreshment] that increased the innate ability to recover. Isaac's wound closed almost immediately thanks to his double regenerative ability, but his blood loss was still evident on his pale face.

"What the hell do you think you are doing, Isaac? Pulling something like this… if Tari didn't have this spell you would've died." Davil could only look down on Isaac, "How can you jump into these situations? You did the same thing back in the previous town, punching the

"Haha… my father… just made sure to hammer down some things on me if… I wanted… to become… the strongest." Isaac laughed remembering the past, "That pearl will help the girl… but now… you two owe me… is that good?"

"Seems fair." Tari sarcastically said as he finished healing Isaac.

"It would be

"In the near future? Oh no no no, you're going to pay forward right now." Isaac brought out his Scythe and then used it as a crutch to get back up, "You two are going to help me stop this fight

Isaac created the plans to destroy the Anarchy Lord and he's dedicated in finishing this fight, '...I'm going back home after this.'
