[Third person POV]
When Arthur realized that he was in a tough spot he decided not to rush toward the two bosses.
He decided to watch the two bosses. One of the bosses was a giant Hellhound. It was 35 meters tall and had three heads. Each head had four eyes. It was a Cerebretus. The atmosphere around it was melting. Even the Hellhounds that went around it were
burnt.
The next boss was a giant Orc. It had a giant sword. Rather than a sword, it probably looked like a butcher knife. The weird thing about it was that the monster didn't have eyes. It only had a mouth. Its mouth had teeth all over it like a penguin 's teeth.
Arthur had seen a Cerebretus type, but not an orc that looked like this. Just as he was thinking about the monster the middle head of the Cerebretus fired a beam of fire into one of the buildings.
Arthur saw the beam hit a building that was being reconstructed. Arthur could only watch. He felt guilt knowing that if he had attacked earlier the Cerebretus might not have attacked.
Arthur snapped out of his thoughts . He ran towards the bosses. Both the bosses and their minions noticed his presence. All of the minions started to attack Arthur.
The orcs took the lead while the hellhounds were gathering mana to breath fire at Arthur.
Arthur gathered mana in his hand and used his magic spell . "Ice Age" Arthur shouted the name of his magic and slammed his feet onto the ground.
Within a blink of an eye, every monster within 3 km was frozen. Even the bosses feet were frozen. Arthur then slammed his hand on the ground and then
CRACK!! CRACK!!
The ice started to crack and every minion monster was dead. However the technique only made the bosses bleed.
Cerebretus fired a beam of fire at Arthur. Arthur puts his hand on the ground and said" Ice wall". The ice wall blocked the attack, but the boss Orc had been already behind Arthur
It swung it's giant long sword towards Arthur. However, Arthur simply grabbed the long sword and froze it in place.
Arthur then jumped and punched the orc in it's stomach. Boom!!! The Orc went flying and crashed into a nearby building.
Arthur then rushed towards the Orc to deal the final blow, but the Orc immediately disappeared and appeared behind Arthur again.
This time it swung its sword and though Arthur tried to block it with his magic. He wasn't able to block it and the long sword struck him in his rib cage.
Swoosh!!! Arthur was sent flying. Just as he was about to recover, he noticed the Cerebretus giant claws approaching him. The claws hit him in mid air and Arthur was slammed to the ground.
Arthur immediately got up when he noticed that the Cerebretus was trying to fire at him again. He launched himself away using his magic.
Though Arthur was a SS rank hero. Just two hits from this monster were making him feel immense pain. He already had a few broken rib cages and still had to fight for a long time.
Arthur simply said " If I am dying, I am going to die in style."

[Ryujin's Pov]
That Robert bastard told me to run so I ran, but that bastard didn't specify in which direction should I have ran.
As I was running I noticed something really eerie. My sixth sense was telling me that there were three monsters fighting towards the direction I was running. When I reached the place I saw a white haired old dude fighting a Cerebretus and an Orc with penguin like teeth.
Why does that Orc have no teeth? The old man was barely hanging on. I recognized the man. He was Arthur Crystal. One of the SS- rank hero.
It looked like he had broken ribs and had scratches from a claw in his chest.
Still, he was standing strong and fighting, but my sixth sense was telling me that he wouldn't last for more than an hour.
By the looks of it the claw must have done something to him. Since he was an ice user fire was his weakness.
The fire was burning him from inside. As I was thinking about that the orc attacked him. Arthur swiftly dodged that attack.
He rushed toward the Orc and tried to grab its head, but the Orc was abnormally fast.
Arthur was then attacked by the Cerbretus. He blocked its claw, but the Orc had been already behind him and hit him with its sword.
Arthur flew and crashed into a building.
He looked helpless. The monsters were co-ordinating their movements. It was an unbelievable sight. I had never seen two different species team up like this. Something was definitely wrong.
The Cerebretus started to charge its fire breath. It was aimed at Arthur. At that sight I just wanted to turn my back and run, but knowing I could save him would probably fill my heart with guilt later on.
I tried to run away from my troubles
And even a bigger one pops out (ahem, not a sexual joke). Before the Cerebretus could fire its breath I ran and stood in front of Arthur and looked back "Don't talk about this to anyone. Otherwise, I will kick your ass myself."
[Arthur's POV]
Looks like I underestimated my opponents. This monsters had a perfect sense of timing for each and every one of my attack.
None of my attacks were reaching them. I was thoroughly being crushed. I was doing some damage, but not enough to kill them.
I could hold out for only one hour until help arrived. That fuck*ing Cerebretus claw attack had definitely weakened me.
Before I could think of next attack I was already thrashed to a building.
"Sh*t, I might die."
But then I saw someone running towards me. I was trying to shout at him to not come here because he was weak, but my voice wouldn't come out. He looked to be around 15 to 19 years old.
He looked strong for his age but not enough to stop these two monsters. The boy stood in front of me. He looked back. He had a calm and a handsome face.
"He surely must get lots of ladies" is what I thought to myself.
Then the boy started speaking in an annoyed tone "Don't talk about this to anyone. Otherwise, I will kick your ass myself."
I really got pissed off. I was trying to strike back and say something, but the Cerebretus shot us.
I closed by eyes because I knew this was the end. "I'm sorry about this, granddaughter."
A few minutes went by without anything happening. I thought I had passed way without feeling any pain, but when I opened my eyes, I was shocked to the very core of my being.
The attack was being blocked. Rather than being blocked the attack never reached me. The boy in front of me was just standing still. The fire breath in front of him was disappearing. The continuous fire breath was being stopped only around us while the surrounding was fully destroyed.
The Cerebretus attack stopped. The boy was completely fine. With a shock in my face, I asked him , "Who the hell are you?"
The boy turned back. He stretched his arm towards me and said in a deep but calming voice, "Nice to meet you old man .I am Ryujin."
