"Torgeir!" She called out, catching his attention.

"Alice. Go and evacuate with the others." Torgeir nodded before turning his attention elsewhere.

"Didn\'t come here to ask you what to do. I just want to know if you have any spatial manipulation abilities that can close this damn fissure? It\'s connected to Terminus and if any of the dangerous beasts come out from that layer, we\'re all going to die." Alice rolled her eyes as Torgeir frowned.

"If I had something I could do I would\'ve done it already. I can only assume that\'s Selen stalling for time." He shook his head.

Hearing this, Alice furrowed her brows.

"Wait so there\'s nothing you can do?"

"I have a spear that can kill stuff. I don\'t have anything that can cut off the connection in space. Just treat it as a natural disaster and leave, it\'s better for everyone to evacuate."

\'Not really if you think about the consequences of having a portal to the literal deepest layer of the Abyss but sure.\' Alyss retorted in her mind.

If a passage was fully formed to Terminus then it\'ll be hard deal with all of the sealed Lords without a small chance of freeing them all.

Terminus was sealed off to become a prison of sorts. To keep the most dangerous beasts locked away and hidden from the world.

Only Ayrians know what kind of horrors lurk in the depths.

With Torgeir not giving her any options, Alice glanced back at the portal and gritted her teeth.

She didn\'t want to overexert her body if she could help it. But this was a passage to Terminus of all things, she couldn\'t sit idly by.

\'It\'s up to you. Either we push ourselves now or push it when we rescue people from the frontline. Whichever you deem more important.\' Alyss didn\'t mind either option as both had their benefits.

If they help out here, there\'s a chance they\'ll miss out on the rewards promised by Torgeir for her cooperation.

However, the alternate reward is that no passage is opened into Terminus and the horrors sealed away can\'t escape.

"For your reference, our deal only applies to your help paving a path of retreat. This disaster can easily be avoided if we simply retreat as we were planning." Torgeir called out, noticing Alice\'s hesitation.

He somewhat understood Alice\'s condition and getting her to use her powers twice was probably unlikely. Especially since she wasn\'t even moved by the promise of numbered equipment. Therefore, he wanted her to be in peak condition when they help their allies rather than an uncertain disaster like the Abyss Break.

Before Alice could even respond, a cloaked figure appeared above the fissure. They pulled back their arm, revealing the Sigils etched upon their skin.

Spectral horns could be seen on their head, forming a twisted crown while malevolent black and red energy exploded out from their body.

*BANG!!! CRACK!!!

Punching down, they shattered the seal placed by Selen as Alice widened her eyes in shock. Torgeir was the same.

"AMBUSH!!! Warriors! Protect each other!" Torgeir roared, realising the dogs of Extalia must be nearby.

"Are you sure you still don\'t want me to help?!" Alice glanced at Torgeir who struggled with the decision before shaking his head.

"No, don\'t intervene. Save your strength for rescue on the frontlines. I\'ll deal with this."

Alice\'s smile twitched as she spat in annoyance before dashing away. She wanted to find Selen since she was the closest to the fissure.

With the seal broken, she\'ll be the beast\'s first target.

On her way to the fissure, she could see several cloaked figures rushing through the outpost, killing warriors who exposed their backs to them.

Even civilians weren\'t spared as they killed anyone they could get their hands on.

Feeling a chill on the back of her neck, Alice immediately created a shield using her shard.

*CLANG!!!

"TSK!"

Feeling a strike on her back, Alice rolled forward and retrieved two daggers from her pouch.

Throwing it at her assailant the first chance she got, Alice frowned seeing another hooded figure parry her daggers with ease.

"Hitting a cute girl on the back of the neck isn\'t a very nice thing to do now is it? Or are you trying to kidnap me? Kyaa~ Didn\'t think I was in such high demand." Alice smirked as the hooded figure frowned.

"Nonsense!"

"Ohya? So it\'s a girl under that hood. You jealous I\'m so cute lookin\'~?" Alice stepped to the side, dodging the stab before punching up against her elbow.

Bending her body back to avoid a horizontal slash, Alice kicked up against the woman\'s chin. Twisting her body, she followed up with a leg sweep and disarmed her.

Since there was no reason to keep her alive, she grabbed the dagger and prepared to stab her neck when a pulse of pink energy burst out from her back.

"Urg!" Shielding her body from the blast, Alice was sent tumbling back as the woman\'s hood was torn apart by the activation of her abilities.

She had long black hair with pink on the inside and a pair of white and pink eyes.

Crackles of pink energy flickered around her as she created two daggers and threw them at Alice.

Just as she was about to dodge, Alice watched as the Void cracked open to swallow these daggers and position them below her.

\'Holy sh*t!\' She cried out in her mind, quickly forcing her body to the side before kicking the daggers away.

She wouldn\'t have thought someone would do this if she hadn\'t seen what Selen had done to the poor beast the last time they fought.

But her extra attention to things aimed at her rear had paid off. If she didn\'t react in time and kick the daggers away…

Alice shivered at the thought as veins bulged on her neck.

"Pervy b*tch! Why the hell would you try stabbing someone in the ass like this?!?!" Alice cried out in annoyance as she was forced on the defensive.

The woman unleashed a flurry of stabs and slashes with her daggers while using powers of the Void to assist her but Alice was too hard to hit.

No matter how fast she tried to go, Alice was always able to dodge at the last moment.

"Not a talkative type huh? Shame." Alice shrugged, punching her wrist to force the stab off course before jamming her elbow into the woman\'s sternum.

Following up with a quick double kick against the chest into a backflip, she threw two daggers at the woman but it was swallowed by the Void.

\'Tsk.\' With just hand to hand and trying to her best to keep up through observing the way her body moves, Alice was barely able to come to a stalemate. But to kill her would be a tad difficult.

\'Wanna let me try?\' Alyss offered.

\'Go for it. And make it painful since she tried to take my damn chastity with a f*cking dagger.\'

\'Pft… Sure.\' Alyss chuckled as golden chains manifested around their body.

Massaging her neck, Alyss glanced at the woman with a grin.

"Come on, round two baby girl~" Alyss laughed.

Stomping down, she rushed towards the woman.

Taken aback by the sudden change of pace, the woman stepped back and tried to use her abilities to keep Alyss away.

However, after watching the fight from Alice\'s mindscape, she had gotten a feel for the \'pattern\' of attack.

Something of this level was far too easy to deal with even if they didn\'t have their Sigils to help.

*BANG CRACK!!

After dodging the attacks, Alyss released a quick one two strike causing the woman to stumble. After which she grabbed the head and slammed it into her knee.

Before the woman could even stumble back from the sudden strike, Alyss twisted her body, hooking her leg behind the woman\'s head and threw her to the ground.

Learning from Alice\'s mistake, she dodged the crackles of energy and grabbed the dagger.

"ARG!!!!"

Letting out a cry of pain, the woman could feel the dagger stabbing into her spine before all sensations faded away.

"And with that~ The end." Alyss narrowed her gaze.

Kicking the dagger she stabbed into the woman\'s spine, Alyss used it as a lever to pull her head and spine from the body, killing her in an instant.

\'I know I said make it painful but I meant for her. I feel like I took more psychic damage than the pain she felt.\'

\'If you\'re not happy you should\'ve ended her yourself.\' Alyss shrugged, giving Alice a smug look as Alice rolled her eyes.

\'That\'s only because you wanted to give it a try. I had a way to end her ya know?\'

\'Yeah yeah~ Sure whatever you say twinnie.\' Alyss waved her hand dismissively while sitting on her bed, feeling refreshed after a bit of exercise.

Letting out a sigh, Alice took control once more. Before rushing to Selen\'s location, she retrieved the daggers that she had thrown since these were her only weapons right now.

###

Upon watching the figure break apart her seal, Selen was prepared to fight.

She had to deal with this threat immediately and reapply her barrier or else the beasts will come pouring out. However, what the hooded figure said next caused her to freeze up.

"You… I know you."
