Smile beyond the fear

The scene before Erste changed again and this time he was in the HQ of the Rebellion. Erste looked around and the sound of fighting could be heard everywhere. The ground was littered with the bodies of Gods and humans. 

Despite their best efforts, the humans were losing, in the distance he could see Gratz alongside the other generals fighting the Old Gods. They kept on fighting despite the inevitability of losing. 

"It has been an honor fighting side by side with all of you." 

"Heh, that it was old man, that it was." 

"You two stinky men... (sigh)I guess it was indeed quite fun to have known you guys..." 

"Hahaha, who knew that in the end, I could get to hear Sayaka's tsundere line." 

"Who are you calling a tsundere?!!!" 

"I'm glad that I get to die with you guys." 

"It's time to sing for our requiem." 

"No need to get so gloomy. I still want to have a drink with you guys after this battle."
