Satoshi is about to kill Cosmic when someone new appears behind Satoshi, completely unknown to Satoshi. Iori dashes over to him to stop the person, as someone else also appears behind her. They are both about to be hit when Lilith and Dai'chi appear just in time to stop both attacks. "Looks like we made it," Lilith says.
The person behind Satoshi jumps back. Lilith immediately dashes at them. "Blade of love, Culled Partner," She says. She slashes in an X pattern at the person. They block the attack with their sword and jump back farther. " O refk ksof fmay zoks ksire muzab ul lobire: Lobire Tey," she chants. A magic circle forms in her hand. It turns into a ball of fire, and she throws it at the person. They cut through the attack with ease.
"It took you guys long enough to get here. These weaklings keep getting in the way of me taking out the trash," Satoshi says. Cosmic jumps back and heals the cuts on himself with healing magic. "I was so close to taking care of this damn rat, and now he has escaped. What an annoyance."
"Just be glad we came to help at all. It's not our fault you refuse to pay off your debt; we might as well leave you to die here and save the effort," Dai'chi says. The person attacking Iori goes to attack Dai'chi. Dai'chi blocks the attack and goes for a counter. They dodge and kick Dai'chi in the face before jumping back. "God damn it, who are you to hit me?"
"My name is Alexander Ohvabkan, I'm the leader of the bounty hunter group that got hired to take that big guy out," He says. Alexander has dark blue hair that's tied into a ponytail. His eyes are red and black, looking like hellfire is flowing through them. He wears a black trench coat. His pants are dark gray with a red shirt. He is wielding a katana. Dai'chi uses flash-step and appears right in front of Alexander. He swings upward, but Alexander deflects it with an upward swing as well. Dai'chi goes for another upward swing from the other side, but it gets countered again with a downward swing. "Is that it?" Alexander says.
"I'll take out this guy," Satoshi says. "He got in the way of me slaughtering his friend, so I'll give him the pleasure of dying by my hands first." Satoshi dashes at the other unknown person who attacked him. They are blonde with short hair. Their eyes are light blue, and they are wearing light armor. He goes to punch them, but the unknown person jumps over the attack.
"O ohvabfire ksire muzab ul zekab ku ersoavire di zoy, zoks ksire muzab ul orire: Ororyire fsuk," the person chants. Light blue magic circles appear behind him. Shards of ice shoot out of the magic circles at Satoshi. Satoshi crushes the Icicles and catches the last one; he throws it back at the person. The person dodges to the side. "Man, you are such a brute. You just punch your way through every attack. How boring." He says.
Alexander yells at him from his fight. "Just hurry up and kill him. He's our target, so once you take him out, we can get paid," He yells. Joshua sighs. He slashes at Satoshi with his sword. Satoshi dodges and goes to punch him immediately. Joshua dodges under the attack. He casts an earth magic spell, causing spikes to shoot out of the ground. Satoshi stomps, causing the ground to shatter and destroying the spikes. Joshua jumps backwards. He lands outside the area that was destroyed. Satoshi dashes at him.
"O ohvabfire ksire muzab ul nifk ku ersoavire di zoy, zoks ksire muzab ul zohn: Zhon Fmaeb," He chants while dodging Satoshi's attacks. Joshua jumps back from Satoshi. Wind begins to spiral around next to him, forming a spear. He launches the spear at Satoshi. Satoshi grabs the skull cleaver off his back and easily slices the wind spear in half. Joshua lands. "I just can't create an attack that will do anything to you," He says in annoyance.
Lilith sprints at Cosmic. Cosmic goes to punch her. Lilith dodges the attack with ease and cuts his arm off. Cosmic shoots a rock pillar at her, but once again, she swiftly dodges to the side. She goes in for another attack with no delay. Cosmic puts up a barrier to block her and jumps back. "That name, Cosmic, doesn't belong to you. You're an imposter pretending to be one of the greatest adventures in history. Even if you do know him, that wouldn't give someone so inexperienced in battle the right to use it," She says coldly.
"How would you know if I'm him or not? Nobody has ever seen the greatest adventurer and told the tale. You don't have the right to declare who I am. I am the Comic Adventurer, the strongest adventurer to ever live. If you doubt my identity, then you can die here where you stand," He says. He regenerates his arm with healing magic and looks towards Lily with a prideful expression. She looks at him unamused. She suddenly disappears and reappears in front of him. She grabs his face.
"If you really were him, then you would remember how badly you were beaten last time you provoked me," She says. Lily slams his head into the ground. She stands back up and stomps. A stone pillar launches Cosmic up to arm's height. Lily punches him, sending him flying. He coughs up blood on impact. Lily stomps, and an earth wall comes up. Cosmic crashes into the earth wall and coughs up more blood. He attempts to heal his wounds, but Lily goes for a kick to his head. He rolls under the attack and jumps back. He manages to heal his wounds this time. "This will be over quickly," Lily says. Staring him down.
