"You guys can go... I'll distract them." Levi having a crucial order to the anxious Cassandra Smith and Misa Togo.
With his eyes already sharpened and sheer will of commitment. Levi knows this battle against the Orc monsters will be bloody and time-consuming, enough for them to escape safely.
But then, as expected;
Another argument and misunderstanding occurred between Cassandra and Levi regarding the situation they're in.
However,
It was no time for them to argue since the surrounding enemies began attacking as soon as the Dungeon boss ordering them.
"Run, now!" Levi hurriedly ordered the two.
He only left a word that made them frightened and relieved at the same time.
*Scheeekekwkkk*
A Loud taunting cry started to burst out coming from the Orc monsters, trying to get in first on Attacking the lone Levi Furiman.
! Blink ! ! Step!
Levi, with only given ample time on adjusting his 'Eye of the Supreme Awakening', has gotten into its move.
As the magic creatures kept coming into him, He made himself creating enough space to fight them one on one.
! Creak ! ! Scrak!
The magic creatures couldn't land their attacks towards him, as he moved swiftly that even an ordinary eye couldn't be caught up their sight.
Not only that,
Most of his blows on their bodies are so fatal that their heads and bones are cracking up everywhere inside the magic creatures' solid bodies.
In a matter of seconds, Levi already killed 10 Orc fighters whom the first ones charging at him recklessly.
3 Other Orc monsters joining up on their way.
But none of them couldn't land their attacks either.
Only Levi's attacks are the ones landing on their bodies.
2 slashes from the neck, 1 Front s***h on the head, and a left ear getting cut on the spot. That was the most gruesome damages taken by a single enemy.
~Fatigue: 25% / 100%
Levi began noticing it as he slowly getting exhausted after a consecutive attack they made by the Orc monsters.
Knowing the fact that they are a few more magical creatures waiting for their turn to attack, he left nothing but to fasten his pace and attacking every single one of them.
Not only that.
Since he didn't possess any magic auras inside his body;
He concludes that he cannot cast any single magic spells to be used in battle anymore.
He only relying on the awakening eye he possessed as the result.
By infusing his power on his weapon, whereas the only weapon he wields is a knife. For him, he thinks of it as a dagger.
But in his case, it doesn't matter anymore. As long as the weapon he used was still sharp and ready to fight along with him.
.
Misa and Cassandra, whose already in the middle of running towards the outside of the dungeon.
Regrets and worries they felt as they start having concerns about Levi's situation.
Knowing the fact that abandoning one's Comrades nor party members is a grieve crime for the Adventurer's rules and regulation.
They knew the consequences of leaving a party member behind, without a certain reason for making such decisions of it.
As a matter of fact, none of them wanted to leave Levi. Not knowing the fact that they left their porter in such an unfortunate manner, but also the fact that he was just recovered from the severe wounds and agony he had a day ago.
As they kept running towards the exit, Misa suddenly changing her mind about letting Levi Furiman fighting alone.
She asked Cassandra to went back with her to fight alongside Levi.
However, Cassandra disagreed with her.
Knowing that she used all of her awakening powers and the only remaining for that was to able her to escape in a short amount of time.
In other words, she is already at its limits.
Exhausted yet tireless, The expressions given to Misa who wanted to help Levi with all of her strength.
She forces Cassandra to accept and joining up with her.
*Bang*
/A sudden loud explosion coming from the direction of where Levi is located./
/The surroundings started to crumble./
The two paused for their conversations for a while, after they felt an aftershock that tremoring through them.
Few seconds had passed after the rumbling stopped.
But then, Cassandra strongly declining it as they continued arguing against Misa's forceful recklessness.
She remained calm as she also reminded Misa of what Levi said to them before they leave the battle.
"If you want to save him, you must save yourself first. I hate this to say but we can't fight against the enemies anymore just we looked up in our current condition." Cassandra seriously explaining to Misa.
Misa left nothing but to felt sorrow for Levi, as she finally understands their situations on the other hand.
With a teary-eyed and striving for survival. She kept running outside along with Cassandra as the result.

Simultaneous system notifications popping out inside Levi's head.
As he kept evading all deadly attacks made by the Orc monsters.
He also felt tired and started to get exhausted as they constantly pressuring him to kept his space getting tighter each time he evades.
On a good part for him, the number of enemies he encountered was slowly diminished as he kept attacking while defending at the same time.
For at least more than 20 minutes of chasing, evading, attacking, and defending, he successfully managed to do it all.
Not until the system notification message suddenly popped out and telling the bad news he got.
~Fatigue: 60% / 100%
Warning: The Possessor's body will receive minimal to severe exhaustion of its body when the count reaches 60%.
Even without asking the warnings coming from the system, Levi already felt for it. As his movements began slower over time, that made him concerned about the future.
Especially when the time he faces up against the Dungeon Boss.
However;
He has already beaten up almost half of the Orc armies for the past 30 minutes since the time he ordered Cassandra and Misa to leave.
"I can still make this, somehow."
The Dungeon boss, on the other hand, didn't seem frustrated nor anxious as it saw a lot of its troops slowly stumbled down to the ground, and numbers slowly diminished.
The Dungeon boss left nothing but to step in against the running rampage made by Levi Furiman.
With a huge stone ax, the dungeon boss grabbed along. A forceful, powerful throw aiming towards the cautious, flustered Levi Furiman whose keeping himself busy defending against the attacking Orc monsters.
Knowing the fact that the number of troops will also be diminished by making some collateral damages, for them to gain advantage and having their first major blow for the first time against their agile, elusive enemy.
Levi Furiman however, didn't notice the approaching weapon that suddenly throwing at him coming from out of nowhere.
Even the system notification was already late to report or to sensed towards their minimum scope.
*Bang*
/A huge body blows banging up into the floor./
/Ground started to crumble./
/Orc troops began to stumble themselves and throwing up to the floor randomly./
As the result, Levi got hit and stumbled down at the moment.
Blood coming from his head are started to spurred out like a leaking faucet.
System notification was already late to pop up.
~Warning: Approaching aerial attacks incoming.
Instead of Levi focusing upon his wounds and injuries. He rather thinking about how did the system notification being late to report in a crucial situation.
Knowing the fact that he relying on it for the whole time since the battle had started.

Levi felt exhausted and started catching up his breath and started regaining his consciousness after the attack made by the dungeon boss.
As if he let it slide and continue to move on.
He tried to breathe deeply just as what the unknown was being taught to him.
/Breathe deeply./
Unfortunately, he couldn't be made it.
He stepped back for a while, wasting some time to rest and calming his mind peacefully. As he knew the strongest among the dungeon enemies had finally taken its appearance once again.
He also closed his eyes for a while and waiting for an opportunity to take countermeasures against the approaching dungeon boss.
/Floor rumbling./
/loud footstep noises./
/Orc monsters chanting for one thing./
Red eyes wicked and hellish glare towards Levi Furiman.
Tremendous muscular body covering the whole light where Levi is hiding.
A loud misunderstanding voice coming from its filthy smelly mouth.
The dungeon boss once again standing right in front of him, but it tells the story so different this time. As the dungeon boss started to gain its advantage against the injured, alone Levi Furiman who having their time regaining his breath for a sudden attack.
! Sckiieeeekkkekek ! ! Sckiiiekkkekk!
A loud taunting chant was made by the Orc monsters, cheering up to their leader for the upcoming victory.
Stone ax is covered with the orc monsters and Levi's blood is getting cleaned by other orcs and returning to its owner.
As the Dungeon boss itself wanting to put an end against their lone, formidable enemy.
However;
Levi Furiman on the other hand already rested and regaining most of his body. Though his blood and wounds are not getting healed completely, it was still enough for him to regain consciousness and be ready to take a battle once again.
Not knowing that his 'Eye of the Supreme Awakening' placing only on his right eye, is still activated and intact for so long since the battle started. He still believes that the odds of winning are still on his side.
He's ready for anything against the might of the enemies as the result.
Not only that, he remembered another thing that the Unknown being always telling on him when entering the dungeon while activating his 'Eye of the Awakening'.
.
{Hey squirt... If you're smart enough to know the difference between demi-being races and dungeon creatures. Then I guess it is worth trying to say this to your innocent, pathetic minds, for you to know about it.}
{Among all 8 strongest races the Balancer of Race entrusted to, Only the Demi-being races are the largest cluster of different kinds of races living in this universe... Basically, every single world that able to sustain life force and livable in a peaceful manner, There's always have been a Demi-being race living in every single world, no matter what kinds of ecosystem and sorts of calamities they encountered. They're also the most prominent races that are able to adapt everything in any circumstances, such as evolving their kind.
However,
Most Demi-being races are brutal, cruel, and dangerous, to be able to make their reputation became atrocious. More likely, they are the ones insanely enough to kill their own kind, for them to evolved and became stronger. Until such time, they turned into a monster. They're preferably living in a dungeon, knowing the fact that it was a haven for them to kill other monsters and magic creatures, as well as the Adventurers foolishly enough to face up against them.}
{I didn't tell this to you to cursed nor hated all Demi-beings living in this world, that's a bullshit kind of reasoning for those ignorant minds to believe. They didn't know what sorts of life they went before they turning out into a giant piece of pain in the ass. All I can say to you is that.}
{KNOW YOUR ENEMIES MORE, BEFORE YOU MADE A CONCRETE DECISION. YOU DIDN'T KNOW WHAT KIND OF LIFE THEY HAD IN THEIR PAST, AND SO THEY ARE ON YOU.}
.
After Levi getting finished mesmerizing the thoughts and reminders made by the Unknown Being.
He started to ask the Dungeon boss's identity while his eyes closing up to avoid uncertain contact with each other.
The Dungeon boss, however, didn't agree with Levi's demand. Began pounding up the Stone ax towards his body, thinking the fight will finally be ended.
But then, all of a sudden;
Levi shouted coming from out of nowhere, guessing the enemies' identities that made them stopped from their insanities.
