"What was that?", Asahi snapped back into reality. "That man....was he the one who brought Matteo into Valhalla....He propelled him down this path.....Is he...in Valhalla.....right now?" Asahi realized every one was staring at him, wide eyed. For a second, there was a loud silence, and then the entire place broke into cheers and applause, as this was going on, Asahi saw Leo and gestured him to come up to the ring with them. Leo nudged the others and the followed him onto the ring. As soon as they got in, Leo ran ahead of them and hugged Asahi, and the others joined in later. "I'm so glad.....you're okay...", Leo said crying loudly. "Uh...Leo....I'm still injured ya know. " "Oh! Right" Leo pulled away quickly and smiled at him warmly. "Boss, that was so cool--You were like---and He was like....and then there was a huge explosion,it went like--" "Shut up, Pierson.",They all said simultaneously, and broke into laughter. As they were laughing, Asahi suddenly stopped and stared at them seriously,"Now who's idea was it to help me out even when I told you not to?" Everyone immediately turned to Leo. "Really guys? I-" Before he had finished talking, Asahi hit Leo's head with his sword's hilt. "Ow, Ow, Ow!! That really hurts--" Leo then felt Asahi's hand on his shoulder. "Thank you.....Leo. You guys.... really helped me in there..." Leo smiled at him, beaming with light,"No problem.....Happy to help."
After a while, the noise and cheers died down, and suddenly, there was now murmuring and whispers circulating in the crowd. "Leo, what is going on?",Asahi asked, looking at the crowd faces, majority of their expressions displayed signs of fear."Are they.....afraid of me?" " Well...I'm certain. Since you came here, you have achieved feats impossible for an F rank. Now you were even able to take down an Emperor, all without using your god ability. Naturally.....their first instinct is to fear you, you can't blame them." "I don't wish for that though--" Asahi looked slightly saddened upon hearing this, and Leo noticed it.
Just when he was about to say something he heard someone proclaimed at the top of their lungs,"Everyone--PLEASE. Look upon me!" Everyone's attention shifted towards this person."Gail-? What are you--?"Asahi cut in and stopped him."Let's hear her....."Gail gulped, clenched her fist and began to talk above all the whispers of the Awakened," The White Horseman carries a bow, The Red carries with him a Mighty Sword, The Black carries with him a pair of scales, and the Pale Horseman brings Death with him. Listen, every one here has dreamed of leaving this cursed land. Every one has tried, and yet, we have failed. All hope has left us, and our lives have become worthless cycles of torment and death, But today, we have seen it with our very own eyes. A chance to be free and our hopes restored. Why is it fair, that we labour in vain, tirelessly fighting for freedom,whiles everyone else is out there, living their lives, treating us like outcasts--Let's come together. Support The Horsemen! They are our only key to getting out of this hell. We won't sit and wait for our lives to end. Asahi and his team plans to defeat the final Emperor, and become strong enough to save all those who can't fight for themselves. Be assured that he will not forsake this goal, Let's trust in these people, everyone...."
