Thirteen stared at the approaching Monster Army with a calm expression on his face.

Lux was sure that the moment these Monsters reached them, the young man wouldn't be able to survive no matter what tricks he used in battle.

He was prepared to take Thirteen away by force if he had to because he didn't want to see the young man die, knowing that he could do something to prevent it.

While he was deep in thought, the teenage boy spoke unhurriedly, breaking him out of his thoughts.

"More often than not, there are times when we can't rely on anyone but ourselves to do things right," Thirteen stated. "Each of us has our own battles to fight, like the Monster Army that is headed toward me right now. With your current strength, you can wipe them all out just as easily as raising a hand."

Thirteen then turned to face Lux. His eyes were as calm as the surface of a still lake, unperturbed by what was happening in his surroundings. The Half-Elf couldn't see any trace of fear in those beautiful green eyes, who seemed to hold all the knowledge of the world and suffered countless hardships and heartaches.

"But this is not your battle," Thirteen said firmly. "Just like how your battles are not mine."

The teenage boy then shifted his gaze back to the Monsters that were coming closer and closer to him.

"Remember this—the Fate of an entire world is not decided by the strength of a single individual," Thirteen explained. "You are stupid and arrogant if you think that you alone can save your world. What I hate the most are Heroes and those who have a Hero Complex.

"Why must a single individual carry the weight of an entire world with billions of people in it? Are you telling me that those billions of people are all dead weight? If you think that way, then I suggest you let a donkey kick your head. There is something very wrong with you."

Lux felt like he was being insulted, but for some reason, he also felt embarrassed after Thirteen's pep talk.

The teenage boy was right.

The world of Elysium and Solais had billions or even trillions of people when combined.

He automatically assumed that since he was appointed by Eriol and Max to help save Solais from destruction, he alone had the power to save it.

He thought that he alone would be able to save everyone in it.

"If your life is a novel, I bet the readers are thinking that you're not the real Main Character of your story," Thirteen stated. "You're probably just the sidekick or the mount of a Baby Slime, who is secretly the true Protagonist of your story."

Somewhere in Elysium….

Eiko sneezed just as she was about to feed her pet Sea Otter, Lucky, a Calamity-Ranked Beast Core that she had taken from an Abyssal Monster.

Thinking that it was her Papa and Mama thinking about her, she cutely smiled and continued to feed the Baby Otter, which made the latter very happy.

Thirteen then held his left and right hands out to the side, creating a hazy fluctuation that seemed to disrupt space itself. From those hazy distortions in space, he took out two short swords, which he would use to fight against the Monster Army that was just a kilometer away from him.

"Listen," Thirteen said. "When we feel like all hope is lost and we can no longer stand our ground, that's when we often realize something very important."

Thirteen then glanced at Lux, and a faint smile could be seen on his face.

"Remember this, Lux," Thirteen stated. "In the greatest battles of our lives… We. Are. Never. Alone."

As if waiting for that moment, over a dozen rocket missiles flew past Thirteen's and Lux's heads, landing on the Monster Army that was advancing on them.

Loud explosions erupted, and pained cries reverberated in the surroundings.

A few seconds later, the sound of a Helicopter rotor reached their ears.

Lux glanced upwards and saw a black military Helicopter flying in their direction. When it was right above their heads, four Individuals jumped out of it and landed perfectly in front of the teenage boy, who had been fighting alone all this time.

"I'm sorry, Young Master," a middle-aged man wearing a butler's suit bowed his head respectfully. "It took us some time to steal—errr borrow a Military Helicopter from the base. I deeply apologize for coming late."

A chubby teenage boy smirked before raising his hand.

Suddenly, a six-meter-tall Troll appeared beside him, holding the most badass bastard sword that Lux had seen in his lifetime.

"It's smacking time!" A two-meter-tall young man bumped his knuckles together and his entire body completely turned bronze in color, making him look like a bronze statue that was moving on its own.

The incredibly handsome young man with long blonde hair tied up behind his back and eyes that were red as rubies chuckled as he held a beautiful ornate sword in his right hand.

He then pointed the tip of his blade at the enraged Monster Army, which was now madly rushing in their direction with the intention of shredding them into pieces.

"With my friends beside me, I am Invincible!" The incredibly handsome young man declared, as he, the Butler, the Chubby Boy, the Troll, as well as the young man that had transformed into a Bronze Statue, rushed towards the Monster Army with the intention of fighting them head-on.

Thirteen watched them with a faint smile on his face before shifting his gaze back to Lux and pressing his closed fist on the Half-Elf's chest.

"You are not alone, Lux," Thirteen stated. "And I'm sure that there are many people who will gladly fight alongside you, risking their lives to protect everything they hold sacred. This is why you are foolish if you think that you are fighting this battle alone. freew ebnov el

"Let's say that this Daniel guy and this Outer God are truly powerful. You just need to think outside the box. If the people or creatures in Elysium and Solais are not enough to fight them, then you should tap into the power that was bestowed upon you by that b*tch named Fate. "You are the Necromancer of Heaven. Since that is the case, what is stopping you from using the power of Necromancy to pound your enemy into submission? Don't only look inside of the two boxes you are in. If you look outside those two boxes, no one in the world or the multiverse will be able to stop you."

Thirteen then gave Lux a slight push before turning to face the Monster Army in preparation to join his people to annihilate them all.

A portal had appeared behind Lux, so the moment Thirteen pushed him, he found himself falling into the portal, unable to do anything. "Death smiles at us all and all a man can do is smile back," Thirteen said as he took a step forward. "But when you look Death in the eye, and death blinks first, nothing seems impossible."

(A/N: Quote from Marcus Aurelius, and Rick Yancey.)

Lux watched the young man's back as he dragged his injured body toward the Monster Army. This image was burned in the Half-Elf's eyes, and before the portal closed to send him back to his world, the final words of the Second Strongest System in all of creation reached his ears.

"In times of Darkness, one must stop looking for the Light, and become the Glow for others to follow."

Those were the last words that the Half-Elf heard before he felt his body falling toward the endless Abyss, with Maple and Cinnamon flying closely by his side.
