The final stand

"Are you fucking insane, why did you do that for?" Firsjen said as he grabbed kath's hand and pulled her back, "We just had to stay in the arena, wait for backup while dwindling their numbers in regular fights."

"You know damn well we could've last another 2 days with our current pace."

"And then what?" Katherine pulled her hand back and asked coldly.

"What?"

"Even if we manage to kill everyone in the audience stands, we'll be too tired to face against Tauba and that Godmother these guys are speaking about. We'll have no mana or any energy left for any further fight. And by luck even if some backup arrives at that point, we'll be killed before anyone reaches us."

"That still doesn't explain why you just called the mad king here, we could've still lived 2 days, but now…" Firsjen said and stopped talking as he stared at Tauba simply walking towards them and causing tremors in the ground.
