The next day, William, Alice and Lucy were dispatched into accompanying the military along with the salvage group of Grick. They were riding on an airship and they went down and landed at the surface. The salvage group went into an old abandoned village to look for more relics of the past human civilization. Not knowing sending a lot of crew underground will only help the beasts to detect them much more easily.
It didn't take long and the beasts have already appeared. Alice was sleeping in the ship's quarters, she fell ill again and collapsed, it was a very bad timing.
With Lucy and a few others who can fight the beasts, they were still outnumbered.
The ship began to fly and escape from the area, but the beasts were already in the ship, even if Lucy and the others tried to slash them mindlessly, they still regenerated at a very fast rate. These beasts severely damaged the ship's engine and it was beginning to lose its altitude.
Lucy and the others seemed tired from fighting because their life force was being consumed by the sword, but they still kept on fighting the beasts just to protect the crews of the airship. Rather, to protect Alice, who is still unconscious.
Even William who is already on his weakened state, he kept on battling the beasts because of the promise he made to himself and for the girls that he swore to protect, especially Alice.

The airship was extremely damaged; there were large holes in the walls and floors of the ship. This was the cause of the beasts tearing into the ship and attacking the crew inside. Lucy was already tired from fighting; she collapsed and fell from the ship. She was unconscious and was falling from a very high altitude.
William saw Lucy falling from the other side of the ship, he was hesitating, whether to jump and try to save Lucy or stay and protect Alice who is still unconscious.
William had no choice but to jump, even if risking his life would do nothing, but he promised to himself he would find a way to save and protect these girls, no matter what happens. He finally caught Lucy in his arms, but they were still falling and they will die if they fall straight into the land. It seemed that this was the end of their life.
