The song "Did you see the sunrise?" by singer Chogakusei was played, the rock and pop tones was sometimes powerful and heavy and sometimes warm and emotional then became epic when the climax plus with deeply meaningful lyrics blended with the dark and tragic atmosphere of the fateful battle between Langress and Lancerlord. They drew their swords and plunged them into the ground, then with all their hatred inside, they charged at their opponents to start this brutal battle. Langress and Lancerlord kicked each other in the stomach causing them to take a step back. But they continued to charge and Langress punched Lancerlord in the right chest. Lancerlord also immediately hit back with a punch to Langress's right shoulder. Langress only moved a little and quickly kicked Lancerlord's left thigh. Lancerlord also immediately punched Langress on the left cheek, but received another punch to his jaw. Lancerlord backed away a little but suddenly kicked Langress in the chest causing him to back away. But he quickly grabbed his leg and spun him in midair. Lancerlord immediately drew the dagger from his right holster to stick it on the floor as a fulcrum and he simply kicked Langress in the face in midair. Langress backed down and Lancerlord stood up easily and he instantly charged at him again. Lancerlord kicked the dagger on the floor at Langress but he caught it just in time and lunged forward to stab Lancerlord. Lancerlord punched Langress directly, but he dodged it and stabbed him in the right biceps. But Lancerlord quickly caught Langress in the face and smashed him to the floor. The impact was so strong that the floor collapsed and they landed on the floor below. Lancerlord pulled out his dagger on his biceps and threw it away then repeatedly slammed Langress savagely on the floor but he kicked him in the face with a hook kick causing him to fall backwards. Langress immediately stood up, all the wounds on his face healed instantly and he kicked him in the face, pushing him further away. Lancerlord stood up and lunged forward then swung his right leg at Langress. Langress also swung his right foot at him. Their two knee guards collided and fired sparks. They came closer and punched each other in the face. Langress and Lancerlord endured their punches but still stared at each other angrily. They took a few steps back but Langress immediately activated the left mechanical gauntlet and sent a shockwave punch at Lancerlord. Lancerlord crossed his arms to block and he was pushed back while everything behind him was blown away. Everyone was talking about this sudden tremor, some people in the surrounding buildings were filming the battle going on between Langress and Lancerlord. Will looked up and whispered nervously:

"Oh no, I should've known how bad this was going to be."

Lancerlord stood up and patted his left shoulder then said arrogantly:

"Hmm, technological weapons? When did you learn that?"

Langress turned off his gauntlet and replied:

"If they work and other than guns, I'll use them all to kill you."

Lancerlord said:

"Then use this."

Lancerlord drew dual short swords from his back and Langress immediately drew dual long-bladed daggers from his back. They slowly moved in a circle while taking a stance then immediately charged. Langress swung his left dagger at Lancerlord but he immediately parried and slashed his chest with a quick slash. Langress immediately turned his dagger down and stabbed it down, but Lancerlord was able to block it with his left sword. But he pressed down hard and hit him in the left shoulder. Lancerlord grunted and swung his right sword to hit Langress's left shoulder. He quickly made a slit along his shoulder before being pushed away. Both of their wounds healed instantly when they were separated for a few seconds but they still charged forward to continue fighting. Langress and Lancerlord swung their weapons at each other quickly and continuously. They slashed and parried with equal speed at the same time and their blades sent out sparks and powerful shocks on everything like the whole building was shaking. They didn't need to say anything in battle because their every attack was all their emotions and words. The people who were filming the video couldn't believe their eyes at their incredible speed that seemed impossible in front of their eyes. Langress swung again and hit Lancerlord's left collarbone while he thrust his sword into his left chest. Lancerlord slashed upwards rendering most of Langress's right body inactive while he stabbed even deeper, paralyzing his left arm. But they immediately healed all their wounds and slashed at each other to everyone's surprise. This time Langress and Lancerlord slashed faster, harder and more violently when they didn't take the shit to dodge anymore and kept taking all of each other's attacks. Their wounds were crisscrossed all over their bodies with each slash and when they pushed each other away, the wounds instantly healed and they continued to slash wildly at each other. Langress and Lancerlord thrust their weapons hard at the same time into their opponents' chests and punched each other in the face and backed away. Langress and Lancerlord breathed heavily after several powerful attacks and they were drenched in sweat. Langress and Lancerlord pulled the weapons of their rivals stabbed in their chests and threw them away. Langress wiped his mouth and said:

"What? Are you exhausted?"

Lancerlord replied strongly:

"No, I'm working even harder. You know I've been waiting for this day for a long time."

Langress said:

"And I was hoping that day would never come!"

Langress took a silver knife then activated it to split five smaller knives and then launched at Lancerlord. Lancerlord quickly noticed and dodged immediately. Five knives flew behind Lancerlord but they suddenly turned their head and flew back towards him. Lancerlord sensed the movement of the wind so he turned in midair to dodge quickly. Langress continued to launch ten more knives and there was a total of fifteen knives focused solely on Lancerlord. All of them pointed at Lancerlord and immediately charged. He dodged quickly while using arm armor to shield and parry. The knives slashed quickly and unexpectedly when Lancerlord wasn't paying attention and he was suddenly stabbed by three knives in the center of his chest and broke his breastbone. A knife flew towards Lancerlord's face but he immediately slid down to dodge and raised his left leg at Langress. He fired the dagger in his left holster at him. Langress dodged it easily but suddenly the dagger exploded right next to his face. The three knives on Lancerlord's chest pierced his body and destroyed his lungs and a heart cord and he spewed blood. Langress emerged from the smoke of the explosion with his right half of his body and face badly damaged but he was slowly recovering. Langress said mockingly:

"Explosives? Great trick!"

Lancerlord looked up and found his remaining dagger so he quickly crawled to it. Silver knives flew and stabbed along Lancerlord's legs and back but he didn't scream in pain. Lancerlord caught his dagger and threw it at Langress. Langress learned from the previous attack and quickly kicked the dagger away and it exploded in a nearby building injuring several people. Lancerlord dashed through the smoke and caught Langress and pinned him down. He grabbed his collar and punched him in the face several times. Silver knives kept stabbing him in the back but he gave no shit. Each of Lancerlord's punches to Langress's face seemed to pour out much of his anger into his arrogance. Lancerlord punched and screamed in despair and suddenly for a second he stopped with a face full of pain with his bloody fist. Langress suddenly understood something but he immediately activated his right mechanical gauntlet and punched Lancerlord in the chest. Lancerlord was punched away and his chest bone was broken, he spewed blood and slowly fell to the ground. Suddenly Lancerlord regained consciousness then spread his wings and floated in midair. Thousands of people around became surprised by Lancerlord. Will thought to himself:

"It's over, the existence of the underworld has been exposed."

Lancerlord tore off the torn shirt on his chest and said proudly:

"Hmm, that's all? Not worth an ant"

Langress retrieved all silver knives and replied:

"Then let's continue!"

Langress raised five silver knives and hurled them all at Lancerlord, they split into twenty-five smaller knives and flew at him like lightning. Lancerlord raised two explosive knives and hurled them at Langress's silver knives. Several silver knives immediately flew away but a quarter of the knives were destroyed. The knives surrounded Lancerlord and he activated the eagle's metal talons in his boots. As the knives flew at Lancerlord, he raised his right foot and swung it around to repel them. Lancerlord quickly used metal talons to knock all the silver knives out with just a few kicks. Langress immediately spread his wings and launched at Lancerlord. Langress retrieved five silver knives flying around his wrist and shouted:

"LANCERLORD!"

Lancerlord didn't care and just waited for Langress to approach. Thinking he was busy, Langress lunged forward and swung his knives at Lancerlord, but he dodged by surprise and stabbed him in the right hand with eagle talons. Langress tried to break free but Lancerlord spun in midair and tore his right hand apart, disabling the silver knives and destroying his right mechanical gauntlet. Langress spat out blood and said angrily:

"Damn Fuck!"

Langress quickly activated his left gauntlet and punched Lancerlord with a powerful blow that sent him flying through ten nearby buildings. Langress slowly regained his new arm after realizing his right arm had been taken by Lancerlord, he said:

"Fuck! That bastard."

Langress quickly picked up all of her silver knives before they fell to the ground. After counting down to nineteen working knives, Langress put them in his coat pocket and grumbled:

"Damn it, if he finds out about this knife control ring, it'll be exhausting."

Langress looked over and saw his legendary Alpha God Sword, but he said:

"Geez, it's fine to get you back, but it looks like you've got a new owner. Sorry Alpha God, but I have Devil's Blood."

Langress took out the vial of holy water and poured it all over himself, he said cunningly:

"Let's see if he's afraid of holy water. He's a pureblood vampire after all."

Lancerlord rose from the rubble and he was able to grab Langress's right hand. He took his silver knife control bracelet and put it on his right hand. Lancerlord looked over and saw that he was in the room of a guy watching Yugioh, who looked a bit taken aback by Lancerlord. The guy said in confusion:

"Uh? Who the fuck are you?"

Lancerlord licked his lips like he had a new dinner, and he replied:

"Hmm, let's have a snack."

Lancerlord immediately rushed forward and grabbed the man, then he raised two sharp fangs that were plated with iron and bit him on the neck. The Lancerlord brutally sucked all of the man's blood leaving him as thin as a rake and mercilessly tore off his head. Lancerlord threw his head out the window and wiped his bloody mouth then said excitedly:

"Langress!"

Lancerlord spread his devil wings and launched back to Langress, he was full of energy again and ready to kill again. Lancerlord arrived and landed heavily on the ground, he looked up with the Alpha God sword in front of him and Langress after. Langress stood strong and defiant, he said arrogantly:

"Is it about time? Another decisive match."

Lancerlord replied:

"Yes, but we need to deal with this first."

Lancerlord controlled the silver knives tore open the pockets of Langress's coats and threw an explosive knife that destroyed them all. Langress said dejectedly:

"Really? I spent a lot of money on them."

Lancerlord replied a little exhausted:

"I don't care, you just need to get rid of those bullshit things."

Langress pulled up the Devil's Blood sword and said excitedly:

"Well then, I'm out of tricks. Pick up your sword and don't complicate things any further."

Lancerlord picked up the Alpha God sword and replied excitedly:

"So this will be the end of us? Die in hatred and anger."

Langress raised his sword and said:

"No, Hell is waiting for us. We'll be fighting forever down there."

Lancerlord replied arrogantly:

"So come here! we'll die as foolest of the world!"

Langress was equally excited:

"Come here! My old brother."

Langress and Lancerlord charged at each other and delivered a slash to their stomachs but didn't dodge and took all the damage. Then they immediately turned around and slashed once to their right shoulder and then another to their left shoulder. Langress and Lancerlord pressed down their swords and they looked closer, more fiercely eye-to-eye. Lancerlord said angrily:

"So you really want to fight?! After everything we've been through?!"

Langress replied angrily:

"Yes, that's what I crave the most! The Betrayer!"

Lancerlord says out loud in anger:

"Don't say that name before me!"

Langress and Lancerlord slashed down and nearly halved their bodies but they quickly recovered and Langress punched Lancerlord in the face causing him to fall back. Langress quickly dashed forward and slashed at the Lancerlord's chest. He also quickly circled around and slashed at Langress's back. Their slash broke each other's ribs and spine, but they recovered instantly. Langress immediately turned around and slashed at Lancerlord's head but he dodged and was only cut off half of his neck. Lancerlord slashed at Langress's face making his face look like it was split in two. The two once again recovered and slashed rapidly at each other. Each of their slashes destroyed each other's bodies, but their healing was so fast that within a second they were able to heal all wounds and fight again. Lancerlord sliced off Langress's left body exposing both his brain and heart and they were still beating but he pushed back to reconnect the severed body and sliced Lancerlord in half from his stomach. Lancerlord immediately spread his wings to push himself back to his lower body and then stabbed through Langress's mouth through his head. Langress also immediately thrust the sword up through Lancerlord's lower jaw into his right eye. The two stepped back and quickly healed their wounds, then charged forward again. This was a battle between two immortals and neither one would win. Langress slashed down Lancerlord's chest once, then quickly up again and another slash on his left shoulder. Lancerlord slashed at Langress's hip then quickly slashed his right chest and then half of his face. Sword versus sword, blood versus blood, eye versus eye, fangs versus fangs, hatred versus betrayal, two opposing ideas clashing and brother versus brother. Langress and Lancerlord fought like two wild beasts, like the two most miserable, like the last two remaining of the glory of their race, like they never wanted to fight each other or like they always wanted this day to happen. Did they really hate each other or just had not accepted the truth? Langress and Lancerlord slashed at each other's chest again and they spewed blood at the same time. The two backed away and Langress immediately activated the left mechanical gauntlet and charged forward, but Lancerlord quickly grabbed his hand and shouted:

"Not so fast!"

The Lancerlord crushed Langress's fist and damaged the mechanical gauntlet and it exploded creating a huge explosion that sent them both far away. Lancerlord was badly burned and flew through a block of houses far away. Langress was equally badly injured with both his left arm exploding and he flew over one or three small buildings and then a very large corporate building. Langress flew straight into a meeting room and scared a lot of people. He spat out blood and said gruffly:

"Fuck off!"

Everyone quickly ran away and Langress sat up. The apartment building where their battle was had exploded and rocks were flying everywhere. Will had rushed to evacuate everyone from there and suddenly he saw a piece of the wall about to fall on a person. He quickly pulled out his Eagle Eyes Beta Pistol and shot at that piece of wall. Seven smart bullets instantly destroyed it to save the person and Will quickly recovered all ammo quickly. Will put away his pistol and said:

"Oh no, do I have to run through two more blocks?"

Will was running on the street when he saw an alley through the opposite street, he said:

"Great, shortcut."

Will ran into an alley but suddenly he stepped on the wrong cat's tail. He was so scared and quickly scratched Will's face. Then, because of the pain, he accidentally kicked a trash can and the lid hit him in the face. Before the pain was gone, Will stepped on a cardboard box making it difficult to walk and collided with three other trash cans. Then, when Will was lucky to get out of that alley, he stepped on the concrete road and got his foot stuck there. Will cried out in pain and tears:

"Oh Lord, why am I so unlucky?!

But luckily he made it to where Langress was. With Lancerlord, he awoke and quickly recovered. Then he roared and then spread out his devil wings and burst into flames, setting the surroundings on fire. Lancerlord darted violently and ferociously towards Langress. Langress saw that his right arm had been burned, so he cut it off to revive the new arm. Then he thought to himself:

"Lancerlord isn't hurt by holy water, so even the cross is useless."

Langress stood up and raised his sword then shouted:

"Come here! You fucking donkey!"

Langress swung his sword at the same time as Lancerlord was rushing towards him like a meteor. Their sword clashed against each other and destroyed the room they were standing in and the two rooms of the upper and lower floors. Langress was pushed away through several rooms and through a falling then building. He promptly launched a rope with a hook and hooked it to a table and swung back inside the building. Langress retracted the ropes and suddenly the whole building was in motion. Lancerlord suddenly plunged down through the floor and his whole body was on fire as if he wanted to eat Langress. Langress and Lancerlord continued to slash at each other and fight despite being surrounded by office workers and innocent people. Langress sliced through Lancerlord's left half of the body, but he swung his sword across the three humans to slash through Langress's chest and cut off his right arm. The two quickly recovered and Langress immediately picked up his sword and slashed it at Lancerlord's chest. Lancerlord got angry and threw his arms out into a large lava field to set Langress on fire, but he dodged in time. But the lava killed many people and melted down, killing more people below. Langress said:

"Disgusting, I mean the smell of dead people."

Lancerlord replied:

"And I think it's a very fragrant smell, want to try some blood?"

Langress said to provoke Lancerlord:

"Oh just shut the fuck up, you fucking cunt!"

Langress raised his sword and charged at Lancerlord while he also extinguished the fire and charged at him, he did not want to use his power of devil for this fair battle. Langress and Lancerlord slashed each other a few times and then Langress elbowed Lancerlord in the face to push him away. He then jumped onto a nearby table and slashed down but he caught it and punched him in the face. Lancerlord pulled down Langress's legs and threw him across a nearby room. Langress lay in a mess and a nearby landline phone vibrated so he casually smacked it and stood up. Lancerlord lunged forward and slashed at a patch of skin on Langress's back but he immediately turned around and slashed at his stomach. Langress lunged forward and stabbed Lancerlord in the left shoulder then shoved him away. Lancerlord pushed the blade up, severed his left arm and slashed hard at Langress's chest. The two quickly kicked each other and when their right knee guards collided, they shattered and their right legs broke. Langress quickly kicked Lancerlord back and slashed his face, cutting off a piece of skin on the right side. Lancerlord also immediately slashed Langress in the face but he dodged and immediately cut off his right hand and it with Alpha God sword fell to the first floor of the building. Before Langress had time to retreat, Lancerlord had already cut off his right hand and Devil's Blood Tachi also fell down. Langress and Lancerlord recovered their new hands then looked at each other and prepared to fight again. Langress charged first but Lancerlord dodged and he elbowed him on the back and delivered another knee-kick to the stomach. Langress was kicked away but he grabbed the glass beside him and threw it at Lancerlord's face. Lancerlord looked up with an angry face and the blood of the wound on his forehead was pouring down. Langress only smiled scornfully and said to provoke him:

"What? Tired? You can fucking die for me!"

Lancerlord immediately launched two explosive daggers at Langress but one was kicked away and the second was thrown outside and exploded one floor below. Langress stood up and pushed herself forward and grabbed Lancerlord by the stomach and smashed him on the table. Langress punched Lancerlord hard in the face and added another blow to his satisfaction. Langress strangled Lancerlord with his right hand to force him down, then took the silver cross behind his belt and pulled out the blade. Langress stabbed Lancerlord hard in the left chest but was stabbed in the stomach by him and ripped out his intestines. Langress spat blood on Lancerlord's face and retreated. Lancerlord pulled the knife from his chest and threw it away, he said angrily:

"You dare?!"

Lancerlord lunged forward and caught Langress by the collar and pinned him to the floor. Lancerlord punched Langress in the face so hard that the floor collapsed to the floor below. Langress spit out a broken tooth and punched Lancerlord even harder in the face, breaking his jaw, but he was still able to punch him in the chest again. Langress suffered a heart attack and had difficulty breathing but he promptly punched Lancerlord in the jaw again causing him to back down. Langress stood up and punched him in the chest to get his breath back then he immediately lunged forward and savagely smacked the left knee guard in the face of Lancerlord. Lancerlord's face was torn to pieces, he struggled to his feet and said with his broken jaw:

"Good, good. We're just getting started, aren't we?"

Langress breathed heavily and said:

"Yes, it's not even the main course and dessert yet."

Lancerlord reconnected the jaw and recovered it then shouted angrily:

"I hate you!"

Langress was suddenly a bit surprised and hesitated because of Lancerlord's words. Lancerlord immediately rushed forward and pushed Langress with him to the first floor. The two still punched each other fiercely in the air, not a minute did they stop to rest but still fought madly to the end. Langress and Lancerlord pushed each other away and landed hard on the floor, the sound of their bones breaking echoed throughout the first floor and everyone around ran away in fear. The place where they fell sank and the floor around them cracked a wide range. Will rushed into the building and saw it, he said nervously:

"Oh no."

Suddenly, two rotten hands rose and hold down to lift up a broken arm and a torn shoulder. Langress and Lancerlord were able to stand up easily no matter how much pain they were in so they could continue fighting and killing each other. Both of them stood up straight and raised their chests making the wounds all over their bodies bleed, then they slowly healed all. Their clothes were all in tatters, their weapons were few and only their two legendary swords were intact and at their best. Lancerlord took off his broken shoulder armor and right arm then bent his right arm. Langress bent his left leg and spewed out broken teeth. The two took off their belts to begin the actual battle. Langress took the rope with the hook and hid it in the sleeve of his jacket while the other two explosive knives were hidden by Lancerlord behind his pants. Langress said calmly:

"Since when did you hate me? When you betrayed or from that day?"

Lancerlord replied angrily:

"I've hated you since it all started! From the moment you started showing yourself so arrogant, when you abandoned us all for your own sake, when you let him sacrifice!"

Langress rushed forward in a sudden fury and Lancerlord immediately launched two explosive daggers at him. Langress kicked one away and it exploded into a crowd of innocent people and the second he threw his dagger to destroy it. Lancerlord rushed forward and strangled Langress to push him away, but he promptly threw the hook on Devil's Blood Tachi and yanked it towards him. The sword stabbed into Lancerlord's back causing him to scream in pain and Langress grabbed the blade and drew it through his stomach. Lancerlord tried to hold back the pain and smashed his head against Langress's head. He was stunned and backed down then Lancerlord kicked him through the wall and into the main street where the protest was still taking place. Lancerlord quickly recovered and ran back to get his sword then charged towards Langress. Will also hurried to follow. Langress stood up in the rubble with many people surrounding him and worried about his injuries. Langress looked at the approaching Lancerlord, suddenly he activated the blood blade of the Alpha God sword and advanced more frantic. Langress smiled confidently and said excitedly:

"Oh yeah, here it comes. That's the legendary state of my sword."

Langress immediately rushed to Lancerlord faster and so did he. As the two got closer and swung their swords at each other, their blades collided so hard that the ground cracked and everyone's ears were ringing while the blades looked like they were about to break. Langress and Lancerlord pushed each other forcefully and looked into each other's eyes filled with indignation and anger. Lancerlord raised his sword to push Langress away and slashed at his chest. The wound was now more difficult to heal, but Langress didn't care and rushed forward to slash Lancerlord's chest with a single slash. Lancerlord also noticed that his wounds were also starting to become more difficult to heal, he wondered:

"How?!"

Lancerlord saw that Langress's whole body exuded a dark aura and the blade began to shake violently. The dragon's head on the sword's circular guard suddenly split and bitten Langress's right hand, sucking his blood and covering the Devil's Blood Tachi's blade with blood. The symbol of the legendary swordsmith Muramasa glowed crimson at the end of the blade, signaling impending doom. Langress raised his sword at Lancerlord and said arrogantly:

"Looks like the main course has already begun."

Lancerlord also smiled with interest and replied arrogantly:

"Yes, have a dinner. If you want to kill me, I'll take you to meet your brothers now."

Langress said angrily:

"They're your brothers too!"

Langress and Lancerlord charged and swung their swords at each other with great force, their slash killing ten people around and bathing the two of them in innocent blood. Langress and Lancerlord swung their swords at each other repeatedly and their blades fired sparks and splattered blood everywhere. Their swords were still slashing, but their eyes did not stop looking at each other full of hatred and conflict between the two opposing ideals of the two brothers. Langress and Lancerlord kept fighting madly and many innocent people died around even though they tried to run away. Langress and Lancerlord became more violent and ruthless as their slashes at each other showed no mercy or hesitation, only killing to the end. They all felt every wound on their bodies but they both felt no pain and ignored everything just to focus on killing each other. No matter how much their bodies were torn apart, how painful it was to Hell, or how painful their emotions were, they would still kill each other like that was what they would do in the end. Alan Lennon's song "Regret" was turned on, a beautiful and powerful epic but with a sad and tragic tone. The song was like was all the painful and tragic thoughts of the battle between Langress and Lancerlord, two brothers and now two most powerful enemies. A regret was too late between the two of them as the one who swung the sword at each other and started it all was both at the same time. Each of their slashes followed the melody but masked the screams of the sufferers and was just the sound of two blades clashing. Blood splattered all over them and only their eyes lit up like two mad beasts trying to find what little bit of humanity they had left. The battle between Langress and Lancerlord was more like a carnage as dozens of innocent people swinging around them were slain by their frantic and blinding swords. Will couldn't believe what he was witnessing, he suddenly vomited at the smell of blood and corpses. Langress and Lancerlord slashed their chests and spewed blood, then they kicked each other hard, causing them to fall back. Lancerlord rushed forward again and grabbed Langress by the neck, then smashed him on the roof of a nearby taxi and crushed the driver inside. Lancerlord shouted angrily:

"Let me tell you, how much I did to protect the Hybrids. I tried to lead them out of The Eternal Blood War, but they were too stubborn and stayed to protect the weak humans! I became a tyrant to stop them from fighting, but they stayed! I tried to tell the truth, but no one listened! I gave proof, but no one cares! I had to fight all by myself, but no one gave up! I tried to save them all, but no one survived! I have watched the next generation of Hybrids be born and feel disgusted by their filth! Isn't that enough for me?! How many more Hybrids have to die?!"

Lancerlord seemed to say all the feelings and grievances in him for a thousand years hidden in his heart. Langress looked like he wanted to cry but he managed to pull himself together and then stabbed Lancerlord in the left chest and pushed him away. Lancerlord kicked the ground hard and they collapsed on the subway below. There were no more screams or cries when they left. The limbs, the head, the guts were lying everywhere in a large pool of blood. Some bodies were slashed to the point where their identities could not be identified, and others had their chests smashed. There was one person alive during that moment of savage carnage and panic, but she was covered in blood and looked like she had passed out with her eyes wide open. Those who survived either lost an arm or a leg or went into emotional shock. Those who were too alive would be too obsessed with that short but nightmarish moment. More than a hundred people died that day. Will ran over and tried to find them, but it was dark inside. The Heroic faction and AVF were also present at this time, but strangely, AVF carried almost a third of their troops. Arenyx got out of the car and ran to Will, he said in panic:

"Oh my God! What happened here? The battle between Langress and Lancerlord is raging online! Will, where are they?!"

Will pointed down the subway line and said nervously:

"They're down there."

Arenyx looked down and somehow everyone above could still hear their powerful and brutal slashes along the tracks. Below Langress and Lancerlord sped and jumped all over the place while slashing at each other in quick succession. Suddenly they landed on the rails and pushed each other's swords, they grunted and suppressed the pain. A subway train came rushing in and Langress was blinded while Lancerlord hurled him inside. Langress flew through the carriages and Lancerlord jumped up and landed hard on the first car then immediately rushed to find him. Everyone became terrified at their appearance and some tried to run away but Lancerlord killed everyone who stood in his way and he even sucked blood on a few people. A little girl cried bitterly at the death of her mother and she sat crying in a bloody carriage with so many dead people around. Langress thrust his sword down to hold himself back before he fell off the last car and then rushed to Lancerlord too. Langress was not crazy about killing innocent people, but every time he jumped over another car, he swung his sword to separate the cars behind to save many people. As Langress and Lancerlord approached, they swung their swords at each other and split the entire carriage they were standing in. They jumped out of it and landed hard on the track, derailed it, and then they continued to fight frantically. Langress slashed to Lancerlord's right shoulder and another slash to his left chest. Langress quickly stabbed Langress in the chest and held him back. Lancerlord was in great pain, but he still grabbed Langress's face and slowly squeezed his eyes. Langress was in great pain but still tried to stab Lancerlord even harder. He also stabbed the Alpha God sword into his left chest. Langress still didn't give up and he continued to punch Lancerlord in the right hip, hurting him even more. Lancerlord continued to kick Langress's stomach with his knee but was unable to move him. Enraged, Lancerlord bared his teeth and bit hard on Langress's left shoulder and sucked his blood. Langress suffered the pain and in his anger bared his teeth, but he endured his thirst and tried to control it all. Suddenly another subway train on a different track came up and hit them hard while they were still fighting each other. The two were thrown very far while the train derailed and pushed each other so hard that it exploded and killed everyone inside. Langress and Lancerlord rose to their feet with a great fire beside them projected onto their bloody, terrified and frenzied faces. They looked like they had lost all their humanity. The two were still stabbed in the chest by the sword but still tried to move forward. Langress and Lancerlord were exhausted and their wounds were too severe, but they still had to fight until one of them died. And at this moment, Langress and Lancerlord cried out in rage and hatred and threw a powerful punch to each other's faces. This punch was all the strength they had left as well as all the anger they had for each other. Langress and Lancerlord backed away and sat with their backs against the wall. They collapsed and were so exhausted they could hardly breathe. Then they slowly pulled the swords out of the wound and put it aside. Despite being so exhausted, their gazes continued to stare at each other because the anger within them remained forever. Suddenly Lancerlord burst into tears of sorrow, he regretted and said sadly:

"Langress, everyone is dead, our brothers are all dead. I was helpless and couldn't save them..."

Langress also started to cry as he tried to hold back, he also regretted and said angrily:

"Shut the fuck up, fucker! You're the one who caused this all, why are you crying?..."

Later Langress cried louder and their cries mixed together in the sad music. Lancerlord continued:

"I want to go back to those old days, our glorious days, when we were still brothers."

Langress replied:

"You think... I don't want that?"

Langress and Lancerlord suddenly saw flashbacks of their past, when they were in the New Dawn faction, when they were brothers. Then the two of them lowered their faces and everything with music slowly faded away and left the two most miserable and tragic people in the world.
