"FIght!" Lux roared as he activated his skill, Battle Cry.

This was the skill that added +100 to both Physical and Magical attacks for all of his allies. With this boost of strength, his ordinary Skeletal Fighters' physical damage had reached Rank 2, making them more formidable as they held back the charging Kobolds.

Diablo and five Skeleton Fighters blocked the newly created passage made by the Kobolds, while Ishtar and other two of the Skeletal Fighters blocked the original narrow tunnel that the Kobolds were using to form a pincer attack.

The non-combatants hurriedly retreated to the very back of the cavern, leaving all those who could fight standing behind the Skeletal Fighters, who were ready to replace the latter the moment they died.

Colette held her weapon firmly. But on the contrary, she couldn't stop her body from shaking. As someone who had already been defeated by the Kobolds once in battle, she was well aware of how tenacious they were.

They were one of the races that could use the strategy of overwhelming their enemies through sheer numbers with kamikaze attacks.

It was at that moment when she felt a hand rest on her shoulder, gripping it firmly.

"Are you scared?" Lux asked with a smile.

Colette bit her lip. Her father had told her that she mustn't show any weakness, especially during a battle. She was a member of the Goldenslayer Clan, a family of Paladins. It was their duty to stand at the forefront of battle and lead their people to victory.

And yet, right now, she was truly scared. Although she was doing her best to fight the growing fear in her heart, she was still unable to stop her body from shaking.

Seeing that she couldn't bring herself to answer, Lux raised the hand he had placed on her shoulder and rested it over the little girl's head.

"I am scared, too," Lux said as he shifted his attention to his subordinates who were keeping their enemies at bay using everything in their arsenal. "But, I have a goal in life. For the sake of that goal, I must make a stand, even if my heart trembles inside my chest."

One of the Skeletons fighting alongside Diablo shattered into pieces, and the Half-Elf raised his hand to summon another one to take its place.

"For that goal, I must wield my weapons to fight," Lux added. "Also, there is someone… waiting for me back home; someone that raised me with love and care. If I fall here, she will be heartbroken, so no matter what happens, I must return alive."

Lux smiled as he summoned another Skeleton Fighter after another died. Colette looked up at the Half-Elf who was like a strong pillar, who gave her and everyone in that cavern, hope.

"What is your goal, Big Brother?" Colette asked.

She wanted to know what the Half-Elf, who came from a distant land, wanted to accomplish by coming to Elysium.

"To save a dying world from destruction," Lux answered as he lightly patted her head. "And prevent it from being destroyed a second time."

The red-headed teenager took a step forward as he summoned another Skeletal Fighter to block the narrow tunnel where the Kobolds were advancing slowly.

"That's why I asked all of you to trust me, and fight with me until the end," Lux declared. "We will not lose. I promise that I will lead all of you to the surface. So, children of the Earth Goddess, I bid all of you to stand… and carve a path to victory!"

The Half-Elf then charged forward as one of his Skeletal Fighters shattered. He took its place and engaged against Kobolds in close combat, preventing them from breaking past their defenses.

Colette and the other Dwarves felt their blood boiling inside their chest. Although they were still feeling fearful, a small blaze of courage was rekindled in their hearts.

The little blonde girl raised her mace and charged forward the moment another Skeletal Fighter got destroyed. She activated her Paladin Aura to strengthen her allies, and then continued fighting side by side with Lux and Diablo.

"Diablo! Push them back!" Lux ordered. "Show these Lizards who's boss!"

The glowing embers in Diablo's eyes burned brightly as he rammed the Kobold in front of him with his shield. Lux's First Born then pulled back his arm as he activated his AOE Skill "Whirlwind Slash."

Lux's first Named Creature annihilated all the Kobolds in front of him as he assumed a protective stance to defend Lux and Colette from the Kobolds, who had momentarily stopped their advance due to the pressure that he was releasing.

"Kekeke."

Diablo laughed as if he was finding his enemies' reaction very funny. Truth be told, he wasn't too worried about the monsters that he was facing. As a monster that had reached Rank 3, very few monsters in the Kobold's Nest could beat him.

Not to mention that Blood Moon was a cheat-like Mythical Weapon that broke the laws of the Beginner's Area.

Diablo's defense was quite high, so he only received minimal damage from the Kobold's attacks. With the help of the "Life Steal" ability that was imbued in his weapon, his health points were almost always full.

Simply put, even if Diablo fought against a hundred Rank 1 Monsters, a single Whirlwind Slash was enough to fully restore his Health Points.

Seeing that things were not going their way, the Kobold Sorcerer decided to intervene and shot a fireball towards the defenders. Just like Diablo, it was a Rank 3 Monster who was very close to breaking through Rank 4.

The moment the Kobold Sorcerer cast its fireball, Diablo threw its Bone Spear which met the attack head-on.

When the two spells collided, a powerful explosion took place, negating each other's attack.

"Kekeke." Diablo raised his sword and made a taunting gesture to the Kobold Sorcerer who was at the back of the Kobold Formation.

The Kobold Sorcerer snorted as it unleashed fireball after fireball with the intention of obliterating the arrogant Undead that dared to provoke it.

Diablo continued to unleash his Bone Spears to meet the fireballs head on. The loud explosions made the walls of the cavern tremble, causing Lux to frown due to the possibility of the cave crumbling.

He had already dragged Colette back to the safety of the cavern, while Diablo stood in front and continued his barrage of Bone Spears.

Just as the Half-Elf expected, the impromptu tunnel that the Kobolds had made wasn't stable enough to handle the powerful explosion, which resulted in a cave-in. This sent dust clouds billowing in Lux's direction, forcing everyone to cover their faces to prevent themselves from getting dirt in their eyes.

When the dust cloud receded, Lux glanced in the direction of his Named Creature and sighed internally. The cavern's entrance had been completely blocked by rubble, preventing the Kobolds from continuing their assault on two fronts.

It was at that moment when Diablo turned his head to look at Lux and gave him a thumbs up. Although it couldn't talk, its confident pose gave everyone the impression that it was saying the words "Just as planned!".

Lux smirked because the feeling of smugness coming from his Named Creature was being transmitted back to him. It was at that moment when he wondered if it was possible for Diablo to talk after a few more upgrades.

The Half-Elf reluctantly put this matter aside as he summoned more of his Skeletal Fighters. Their fight was far from over, and he had no intention of letting his guard down until reinforcements arrived.
