Covered in green liquid, Kaizoku tried to wake the unconscious Sylphy.
Sylphy had passed out after being hit hard against a solid wall.
Kaizoku removed his belt pants to secure and bind Berseker to his back.
Finally, the commentator and host bravely spoke. "THE WINNER IS BILLY, BILLY MCCARTER! THE OUTLAWS ARE THE FIRST TO SUCCESSFULLY KILL CERBERUS! THE UNDEFEATED TITAN HAS BEEN DEFEATED!"
Kaizoku lifted Sylphy's arm carefully under his own.
"MR. BILLY! YOU, YOU HAVE PROVEN YOURSELF WORTHY OF ENTERING LORD GON'S KINGDOM... THE KINGDOM OF GONE, PLEASE ENTER THROUGH THE GRAND GATE THAT IS NOW OPEN BEFORE YOU... PLEASE, PLEASE COME IN."
Kaizoku walked silently, carrying Sylphy in his arms towards the open grand gate.
During his walking foward, Kaizoku quietly shed tears. Something inside Kaizoku felt something was wrong with him.
After walking for quite some time with Sylphy still unconscious, Kaizoku spotted a door similar to the one they had first passed through.
Exhausted, he decided to enter the room while Sylphy's still on his arm.
The door was unlocked. Kaizoku entered and as expected, found a bedroom similar to their previous one.
With only one bed, he gently laid Sylphy down.
Kaizoku pulled a nearby chair and sat beside Sylphy to rest.
"Please... we're not done yet, I don't want losing my close person again. I beg you Sylphy, don't forget about our promises."
Not long after, Kaizoku fell asleep due to exhaustion. Kaizoku's sleeping head rested on top of Sylphy's hand with dried tear marks on Kaizoku's face.
Eventually, after awhile Sylphy awoke from her unconsciousness, seeing Kaizoku asleep while holding her right hand while his head on her hand.
Dizzy and confused, Sylphy tried to speak. "K-Kai? What's happening?"
Her voice was very soft, but enough to wake Kaizoku from sleeping.
He immediately raised his head, rubbed his eyes, and wiped his cheeks to ensure Sylphy didn't see his dried tear marks.
Kaizoku smiled with relief. "Thank goodness, I wasn't ready to see you die..."
"Ugh... What's going on?" Sylphy's head still hurt and felt dizzy.
"Uh... Hehe... It's complicated, but basically, I managed to defeat Cerberus," Kaizoku answered with a small smile.
Sylphy felt relieved, though it seemed impossible for the novice Kaizoku, she was grateful and believed his words.
"Thank goodness... We can continue our next goal, finding a way out. Our only option is to try entering the kingdom we saw before." Sylphy respond with relief smiles.
"Oh! By the way, I obtained a key to enter the kingdom, likely the same one we saw earlier."
Kaizoku showed Sylphy a ring with a small bright green stone at the middle.
"If the host spoke truthfully, this ring will take us into the kingdom... Hoping we still have a chance to escape this green hell."
Sylphy smiled proudly, knowing Kaizoku's survival without her help proved she had guided the hero on the right path to growth.
They joked and laughed together.
However, this happiness was temporary. Worse situations were coming, challenges that would test Kaizoku's body and mental strength...
