'I see... yeah, seeing as how I'm only at an OP of 13, I stand no chance of defeating him. Even with my creatures, it won't be too easy. As it stands, this guy's superiors would crush even my beasts. It's not as though the totaled OPs stack up. If that were the case, I'd be closing in on an OP of over 100. However, 2 creatures with an OP of 20 match more so an OP of 25 rather than 40.'
Lyrian contemplated more on how to fight Anger, but in the end concluded that 'Still...'
"If it's only you I have to defeat," Lyrian firmed his stance and furrowed his eyebrows. "Then it will be done!"
At that moment, Anger took in a deep breath, facing Lyrian with a malicious glare.
"Even if it was just me, you all wouldn't stand a chance. However... who said it was just me, twerp?" contemporary romance
As soon as Lyrian heard this, his heart skipped a beat and his serious demeanor slightly melted away.
'That's right... I hadn't even considered the possibility of there being more than just him!!'
"Fifth Hair! Come Out!" Anger roared, as another figure slowly made his way out of the temple.
"Are you done searching?" Anger yelled, but before the other decrepit guy could answer, he yelled, "Wait! Don't reveal the contents of your discovery..."
The person who walked out was far less expressive and energetic than Anger.
His skin was blue, and his long dark blue hair stretched down to his waist. On his body was the same clothing as Anger, except on top of his much skinnier torso were torn pieces of cloth.
His face wasn't shown unlike anger, covered by hair. However, he was also looking down.
"Who the hell is that?" Lyrian called out.
"Me?" The blue man spoke in a low, almost depressed tone.
"I am... Fifth Hair of the Black Petal Sect: Sadness."
'Scan!'

'Almost as strong. But that's weird... both of their bloodlines are [Erased]. Were they created in a lab or something? If they were born from parents, they should always have a bloodline. Although... I still don't know mine either. However, mine is unlike theirs. Mine is unknown even to Gear, but theirs is clearly displayed as Erased.'
Seeing Sadness threw Lyrian off a lot since he knew that it would be much more difficult for him to beat the both of them by himself.
However, Sadness suddenly disappeared from his spot in that instant.
'No! He's!' Lyrian thought, even more disturbed now than he was before.
Sadness was currently heading toward all of the adventurers who went to rescue Rothis.
Taking on both was a drag, but Lyrian knew that it would still be better than getting the adventurers involved.
'He'll kill them all.' Lyrian mused, quickly dashing toward Sadness.
'I'll finish him off first then.' Lyrian thought to himself, getting ready to spawn Tao into the cavern.
He had already reached Sadness, who was halfway across the cavern by now to Rothis and the others.
"Come, Ta--" However, just as he was about to summon Tao--
with Anger right on his tail--Osikae appeared in front of Sadness.
"Lyrian! Leave him to us! Trust me, I am not as weak as I look. Focus on defeating that red-haired bastard first!" Osikae declared with a valiant voice, as Lyrian stopped for a slight moment.
That moment was enough for Anger to catch up to him. Anger grabbed him by his shoulder and pulled him back, throwing him across the cavern once again.
This time, Lyrian came to his feet and slid a few feet before coming to a stop.
"Fine! I'll defeat you first then!" Lyrian said before exclaiming, "Shadow Puppet!"
At that moment, Lyrian's shadow burst out of his chest. It quickly slithered through the air like a snake before latching onto Anger's body.
"What the hell is this?" Anger exclaimed, feeling an odd sensation surge through his veins.
He grunted loudly for a moment, before tensing up his entire body. That action was enough to repel Lyrian's shadow away instantly. It absorbed back into Lyrian's chest, shocking him a bit.

'Damn it! I should have known.' Lyrian mused as Anger appeared in front of him at that very moment.
"This time, I won't just punch you!" The red figure roared, thrusting his blade forward.
Lyrian couldn't move fast enough, so he tried to block with his obsidian blade again.
However, this time Anger was at point-blank range. Lyrian couldn't move fast enough, and he knew
it.
Before the scimitar reached his throat, a large jaw unleashed from his chest, grabbing the sword before ripping it out of Anger's hands and throwing it in the air.
"Good! Go back in Garmr, you're too big!" Lyrian said as Garmr's jaw quickly absorbed back into his body.
"Come out, Panixu!" At that moment, Panixu extended from Lyrian's shadow and appeared in front of Anger.
"Beware all, for the legendary Panixu has arrived to save the day!"
"Huh!?" Anger said in confusion, quickly retrieving his blade.
Lyrian smirked as he looked at the other side of the cavern where Sadness was.
'Hopefully, they can withstand the Fifth Hair until I defeat this guy.' He thought to himself before turning toward Anger.
"Deal with him quickly, Panixu!"
"Yes, Master!"
