Requiem Of A Failed Hero

'Shit! shit!! shit!!! shit!!!' Hunter Joon-Ho's face tumbled, and every one of his limbs. He wasn't scared of the monsters unlike the recruits, the only fear that plagued him was how to get these new guys out of the gate. But they were surrounded from all sides, any plan of escape was a suicidal attempt.

Even fighting right now was a suicidal attempt, whatever they would do with this horde of yeti, was going to be a suicidal attempt no matter how hard they try. Plus that shaking ground had now made it clear that these were footsteps, footsteps of something tremendous.

Hunter Joon-Ho, put his arms forward, clenching his hands into a fist and ready to protect the recruits even if it is at the cost of his life while trying to worry about the thundering steps.

THUD!!

With the last heavy step, Fenrir landed in the middle of a horde of yetis with his legs towering over the young recruits.

Their faces slowly went up in despair, their eyes balls shaking and their lips vibrating... maybe that one was from the cold but who would have known when they were surrounded by elements of fear.

Fenrir dematerialized into black smoke that slowly brought Raith's feet to the ground. As they saw that it was him, an unexplainable peace entered their heart, it could be seen on their faces which immediately turned to an 'Oh thank God we are saved' kind of face. A face human would make when they are saved.

Raith beheld their face and suddenly widened his eyes. Did their passionately thankful faces impress him? Definitely not!

He realized something, '...this is an opportunity to try it.' He turned to hunter Joon-Ho, who was shocked out of his pants.

He was probably busy wondering about what the hell that wolf was.

"Hunter Jumble."

"It's Joon-Ho"

"I don't fucking care," Raith said to him, smacking his lips. He looked around at the yeti who were stagnant, they probably would have rushed to attack if they didn't see the giant wolf earlier. Even if it wasn't around anymore, it only makes sense that they should be careful.

Raith's face came back to Hunter Joon-Ho. "Even with me, we can't win this."

Hunter Joon-Ho squinted his face, he had thought that now that Raith was on the battlefield, something would change. Maybe the two of them could push it through.

'...is this bastard trying to run away right now...' He said in his mind as Raith continued to talk.

"And so, I'm thinking of this..." Raith took a deep breath. He considered this a very big moment. "...I will hold them off with my life and all my strength, you go on ahead with the recruits, escape."

Hunter Joon-Ho's eyes widened. "What?!"

This was contrary to what he had thought about Raith.

Raith bowed his head, "These guys..." he looked behind to the recruits who all had anxious faces all on them, even the best of them, Hyon-U and the damage dealers were so curious to know what was going to happen to them.

"... they have a bright future ahead of them. I don't mind dying as long as I can keep that future for them. And this will probably teach them a big lesson, not to underestimate gates." He raised his face to the sky with his eyes closed and Tae Joon-Ho could see the sorrow that overwhelmed his face. It wasn't something he wanted to do.

He was probably fighting with his mind right now to stay back despite knowing that it is going to be the end of him– was probably what Tae Joon-Ho was thinking as his gaze that started as a scornful look had transformed into a sad countenance and sympathetic face.

He bit his lips and looked away, "I was wrong about you..." He mumbled, clenching.

Raith opened one of his closed eyes to look at Tae Joon-Ho. '...he's definitely buying it.' He closed his eyes and resumed his sorrow waning before hunter Joon-Ho looked up.

"I will make sure I get help..." Hunter Joon-Ho yelled. "You are the bravest hunter I have ever known!!" Hunter Joon-Ho yelled.

"Hunter Raven, I will stay with you," Chunho said with a face full of conviction.

Raith bore down at him for a few seconds before responding, "...okay, you don't mind if you will die?"

Hunter Chunho gulped and looked down, "How will I face my guild president if I walk out on you when I'm supposed to be your assistant." He said.

Raith smiled but make sure that none of them were looking, he really was enjoying this scene.

Hunter Joon-Ho's gauntlet began to glow as he prepared to fight his way through the yetis that surrounded them from behind– that was their route out of the gate.

'Now, let's add a little more death scene emotions as I read in s.' He opened his hand, entifying the black sword out of space.

Wish!

Using [instant move] he pierced into the distance ahead of him, slashing the head of one yeti off.

And that just made it easy for hunter Joon-Ho and the recruits. Hunter Joon-Ho looked at him with eyes full of respect, 'He's even helping us escape!' He really couldn't fathom how a soul would be so pure.

With a regretful frown, he faced forward and smashed several blasts of energy into the yetis that were in front of him. Anyone could tell he was very angry, even his firepower was crazier than before, he cleared the path while the recruits followed him closer, Raith also swung his sword, slicing through the yetis that went after them.

The boss of the yetis slowly walked forward behind Raith who was busy fighting off and blocking the hit of the yetis. By this time, hunter Joon-Ho and the recruits had broken out of the horde and were already running back to the entrance but hunter Joon-Ho didn't stop looking back.

That was why he was able to witness the boss yeti smash its spiked club into Raith's back, smacking him to the ground, and began to clobber him over and over again, with his blood splattering.

As much as he wanted to run back to save Raith, he couldn't. He watched hunter Chunho cry out while still trying to hold off the yetis before him.

Tears filled his face as he faced the front and ran with more desperation.

A sacrifice he couldn't confidently suggest, was suggested by a new member of the guild and he died to save the future of the guild, what other greater man is there than this man? O sing his requiem and let the world know of his courage.
