"This is outrageous! There's no way we can keep holding on forever!"
"But we have to!"
The situation inside the cave has been going worse ever since chaos ensued. The Kruule soldiers' abnormal persistence and unhinged aggression are making them hard to contain.
What Karen did to protect Nina from the one soldier of Kruule who was trying to attack her made everyone realize that it was the only way to completely stop their rampage. It was necessary. But at the same time, they are still clinging to the smallest hope that the situation would wind down without having to resort to killing.
These conflicted thoughts are putting the Payapas and the Malayas at a great disadvantage. The enemies are hellbent to kill them while they are hesitating to do the same.
"Ha!!"
"My windpipe is... Gwahk!" Onstad was already coughing out pools of blood as he continued to fire his Air Pulse to keep most of the Kruule Soldiers stuck in the walls of the cave.
"Onstad! Pant... Pant... Damn it!"
