Ryu's POV

I coughed out blood as he pierced one of his blades into my shoulder. I held onto his arm trying to push him away but he was too strong. I already reached my limit in augmentation and I was getting weaker.

"You're not bad at fighting." growled the man

He pushed the blade in deeper and I grit my teeth in pain. I held onto his other arm to prevent him from stabbing me but the tip of that blade was grazing on my stomach.

"Hae In! Kill him!" yelled the man

"Hae In? You're Korean?" I asked while smiling

I coughed out blood and the blonde girl stabbed my stomach with her sword. I felt my arms slowly give up so the man took advantage of that and pushed the blade into my stomach so now I have two blades in my stomach.

"Who... who ordered you?" I asked

"None of your business." snapped the man

"Then do me a favor." I said

I let go of his arm and grabbed the collar of his shirt.

"You have to get the Matrix, it's the only way for you to revive your world." I said

I coughed out more blood.

"The people I know, will lead you to it. But whatever you do, never ever give it to Oracle." I said

"Oracle was the one who promised me that he'll revive our world." said the girl name Hae In

"You probably won't believe me if I said he was lying." I commented

"Sir!"

I saw Aragorn and Aneko run up to me, Aneko looked desperate to save me and Aragorn looked horrified.

"Stop..." I called out

Aragorn was on the verge of shooting his arrow.

"Promise me you'll never give it to Oracle, nor Demon nor any of his fucking angels." I said

"Ryu what the hell are you saying?" asked Aneko

"Just stop." I said

I felt my heart beat slower and slower.

"So you're telling me, Oracle is only using the two of us for his benefit?" asked the man

I nodded and coughed out more blood but suddenly the two of them pulled out their swords and I collapsed onto the floor but Aneko caught me.

"Ryu..." whispered Aneko

"I'm... fine." I groaned

"Ryu hang on, Hikari can save you." said Aneko

Blood spilled out from my open cuts. Aneko and Aragorn helped me and brought me over to Hikari who began healing me.

"Ryu, take a break." said Aneko

"There's really no time for a break, if Oracle used this man to kill me he must be planning other shit." I said

"I'm going to kill him." said the man

"You can't, it's impossible if he still has his damn angels." I said, "You can't even go back to your earth."

"Who are these angels? I kill them all." he said

"There's no point, you'll never find them." I sighed, "They'll come to us."

The AI was busy translating but I looked at him.

"He'll erase you from existence. If you die I still have a chance to revive you but if you're erased there's nothing I could do." I said

"Fuck." groaned the man
