Everyone started to rush in at the Grimm horde and the possessed Wyvern Grimm, Some of them who couldn't fly or run as fast was on motorcycles powered by Dust is what to be presumed at least from the world logic, Some people got off the bikes early and started to deal with the Sabyr's Grimms such as Nora, Cyborg and Ren. Jaune was charging forward, The Excalibur remained hidden within an invisible cocoon of compressed air, its true power concealed. The Grimm horde closed in, claws and fangs bared, but Jaune movements were swift and precise. He parried their attacks with calculated precision, using his extraordinary combat skills to evade their strikes.

The Sabyr Grimm lunged at Jaune, their razor-sharp claws aimed for his throat, but he moved with lightning agility, ducking and weaving through their ferocious assault. With a graceful, almost dance-like motion, he summoned his invisible sword, striking with breathtaking precision. Each swing sent shockwaves rippling through the air, a silent tempest that tore through the Grimm with deadly elegance.

The Ursa's charged at him, their massive frames and brute strength threatening to overwhelm, yet Jaune's composure remained unshaken. With finesse born of countless battles, he effortlessly sidestepped their thunderous lunges. In return, his strikes were nothing short of devastating, rending through their dark, armored hides and sending them plummeting to the earth in a resounding defeat

The Nevermore's, dark avian predators, swooped down from the ominous sky, their razor-sharp feathers descending like a deadly rain. Jaune, a figure of unwavering determination, leaped into the air, his lithe form spinning and twisting with a dancer's grace to evade the deadly projectiles. In a single, fluid motion, he summoned forth Excalibur's hidden power, unleashing a burst of compressed air that spiraled upward with unstoppable force. The invisible tempest struck the Nevermore's, causing them to falter and plummet from the air, their once-deafening screeches silenced forever.

Everyone was shocked by Jaune's incredible fighting performance, but this was far from the end for the King of Knights. He continued to charge straight through the horde of Grimm, a feat that no one else dared to attempt, as it would be suicidal for anyone else. However, for Jaune, it seemed like child's play. Grimm bodies were being flung across the area, some sliced in half, while others lost their heads. There was no sign of him slowing down.

The Wyvern Grimm, which had been possessed, continued to wail in pain as it started to glitch out. It attempted to breathe fire at Jaune while he was surrounded by the Grimm horde. However, Jaune didn't seem worried. He looked up and saw that the fire was blocked by a massive heavy shield with an green glow. Jessica, with her glowing green eyes, looked down at him and smiled. Jaune smiled back as he continued to demolish the horde. Jessica provided backup by deflecting the nevermore's feather's and the attacks from the Wyvern Grimm.

Even the Goliath Grimm were not safe from Jaune's onslaught. He cut them down one by one, using his physical prowess to punch holes straight through them. Everyone, except for Jessica, could only watch in pure astonishment and admiration at his incredible strength. He fought all of the Grimm while they could only sit back and watch, a fact that didn't sit well with them.

"Since when was Jaune ever this strong?!" Weiss looked on in shock with everyone from Remnant. "What are we waiting for?" Yang smirked and took the lead, with the others following suit. They now fought with greater aggression and tactical acumen.

"Clark, Batman, you cover each other from the sky. Ren, Nora, and Cyborg, stay near the rear but remain close to handle the Grimm coming from the other side. Blake, stick with Yang and Diana. Ruby, come with me and engage in direct combat, but don't get too close, as we'll need you for long-range support. Flash, do your thing, and Weiss, provide support" Jaune directed the team as he leaped back. They all nodded in agreement. Flash flashed a confident grin and darted around.

"What about me?" Jessica floated to Jaune's side. He looked at her with a grin. "We fight together. We'll have each other's backs" Jaune declared, and Jessica nodded, forming green weapons at her side.

Watching how Jessica did that, Jaune realized something. "Jessica?" He turned to her, and she tilted her head in confusion. "Can you create swords and lances above you and hurl them toward the Grimm?" He asked, just before he sliced an incoming Grimm.

"I... Could?" She clenched her fist, and weapons materialized above her, causing Jaune to silently laugh. He smiled at her and said, "Great! Now we've got both long-range and short-range covered." Jaune ran ahead, prompting Jessica to yell, "Hey, wait for me, dummy!" She started to fly beside him, with the green weapons hovering above her, slicing through multiple Grimm, much like Jaune's sword.

"Damn you all!" Kilg%re yelled out as his possessed Grimm body began to glitch, catching the attention of Jaune and a certain red reaper in the crowd. "I see..." Jaune and Ruby thought at the same time. They both leaped back and exchanged a nod, realizing they had the same idea.

Ruby activated her semblance and shot towards Jaune. As she reached him, he extended his left hand, and Ruby latched onto it. Jaune spun around and flung Ruby with great force toward the head of the Wyvern Grimm. She swiftly shifted her weapon into a scythe and stabbed it straight into the creature's eye. The Wyvern Grimm attempted to bite at her, but Clark arrived at just the right moment, punching its face away. Weiss summoned her abilities and flew towards the Wyvern Grimm as Ruby landed on top of it.

Jaune nodded at Ruby, and she smiled back at him. However, she felt a sudden warmth behind her. Turning her gaze back to the Grimm, she noticed it was beginning to glow, forming a large orb of fiery orange. "Oh no..." Ruby thought, her heart racing. She attempted to use her semblance to escape the impending danger, but it was too late. A searing beam of fire came hurtling towards her.

"Ruby! No!" Clark yelled in desperation, attempting to fly to her aid, but he couldn't reach her in time. Ruby closed her eyes and prepared her aura to withstand the impact, but to her surprise, she felt nothing. For a moment, she thought she was floating upward.

"NO!" Jessica cried out, her voice filled with anguish, as Ruby opened her eyes and realized she was suspended high in the air. Her gaze darted downward, where she saw Jaune being engulfed by the devastating beam attack. "JAUNE!" Ruby shouted, a mixture of shock and fear coursing through her as she desperately called out to him. However, she was too far above the ground to reach him, and helplessness overwhelmed her.

The beam illuminated the sky as it pierced through one of the cliffs, continuing its destructive path down into the forest. Those who heard the cries and witnessed the beam's destructive power watched in horrified disbelief as Jaune was struck.

Just in the nick of time, Jaune had managed to get to Ruby and threw her upward, away from the impending blast. He had selflessly sacrificed himself to protect Ruby...

"J-Jaune... N-No..." Jessica's voice trembled with shock and sorrow. Her eyes widened in disbelief and horror as she watched someone she had grown to care deeply for sacrifice himself. The pain in her heart mirrored the tremor in her voice as she grappled with the devastating reality before her.
