Although ZeroCheat was strong enough to tank many attacks from this monster, he also had his limit. He could not take continuous damage forever. Thus he said, "I can't hold this for long! XuanLake, you should finish the demon soon!"
XuanLake grinned as he watched how ZeroCheat was trying so hard to defend against the Giant Demon King's attack. It made XuanLake happy that he could finally see his rival to struggle against something.
XuanLake glanced at Yunyu, who was watching from afar. As long as he dragged the fight long enough, he could make it believe for Yunyu to see him struggling against this monster and trying his best. But ZeroCheat would eventually lose his protection and died.
He smirked and then started attacking the Giant Demon King with his light sword, "Hyah! Hyah! Hyah!"
Xuanlake jumped from one position to another and attacked from all direction, it started chipping the Giant Demon King's health bar slowly, but it was not fast enough to kill him. The chipping damage made the Giant Demon King furious, but he could only attack ZeroCheat.
He roared and started attacking ZeroCheat continuously with his claws, "XuanLake! Faster! I have a duration for my shield! I might die for real if you are too slow!"
"I'm trying!" XuanLake yelled.
Yunyu was watching from afar. He was so scared that something terrible might happen to ZeroCheat. He had a bad feeling about this, "I can't just sit and wait!"
Yunyu summoned his wand and waved it on the air, "Moon Crisis Power: Make Up!"
…
"Eh?!" Yunyu was surprised because nothing happened after he chanted the magic word. He tried it again, "Moon Crisis Power: Make up!"
…
Still, nothing happened. Yunyu started panicking, "Moon Crystal power: Make up! Moon Prism Power: Make up!"
Yunyu chanted all kinds of transformation word, but the bright light was nowhere to be seen, "What happened?!"
Yunyu saw how ZeroCheat was trying his hardest to tank the Giant Demon King's ferocious claws that kept repeatedly attacking. While XuanLake kept on attacking the Giant Demon King until his health bar was already 50%.
'Giant Demon King: HP 50%.'
'XuanLake: HP 100%.'
'ZeroCheat: HP 30%.'
"Faster! Goddamn it! Faster XuanLake!" Yunyu yelled desperately. At this rate, ZeroCheat would die first before they killed Giant Demon King, and if ZeroCheat died…
Yunyu shook his head. He didn't want to think about that possibility.
Although he was in terrible pain, Yunyu used one of his attacks to help his teammate, "I summon upon the power of Sailor Venus, give me the power of shocking beauty!"
Yunyu winked as he kissed his palm and created a golden love symbol that spun around him. He took the love symbol and threw it to Giant Demon King, "Yunyu's Love and Beauty Shock!"
The love symbol unleashed a flurry of light attack towards the Giant Demon King, instantly cutting his HP to 30%.
"RAAAAARGGHHH!" The Giant Demon King roared out loud, the intensity of his attack doubled as he kept on attacking ZeroCheat, "XuanLake, I can't hold this longer! Kill him now!" ZeroCheat shouted.
XuanLake smirked. He raised his sword up high and charged his attack, "Please wait a bit longer! I need to charge this attack!"
"Arrgghh! Don't waste any more time!" ZeroCheat yelled.
"Ultimate Attack: Light Pillar!" XuanLake chanted his attack, but it was considered slow compared to the dire situation they were in right now. Yunyu, who saw this, couldn't wait any longer. He wanted to use the second Love and Beauty Shock attack. But when he tried to use it again, suddenly, he got the notification that he didn't have mana left.
"WHAT?!" Yunyu was shocked. He was sure that he still had plenty. How could it deplete after just one attack?!
Yunyu took a mana potion inside his bag and drank it to no avail. The grievous wound not only stopped health regeneration but also mana regeneration, "WHAT IS HAPPENING?!"
[Pupa! System! Come back! I'm in dire situation right now! I don't know what to do!]
[…]
There was no answer from Pupa, which made everything even worse for Yunyu. He desperately waved his wand and wanted to turn into Sailor Cutiepie, but he could not.
As if his body was acting against his own will.
Yunyu kept on trying until he coughed a few times and spit out something to the ground. It took a moment until Yunyu realized what that was;

"A BUG?!"
It was a small bug, the size of a small spider. It was made out of wires and electricity. The spider crawled around, trying to find its way inside Yunyu's body again. In response, Yunyu smashed it with his hand.
Then he coughed again and saw another bug coming out of his body, this time, it was already dead.
Yunyu watched in horror. These bugs must have been crawling inside his body for a while now, "W—What is happening to me…"
However, the loud shriek from ZeroCheat took all Yunyu's attention immediately. He saw the shield finally broke in half. ZeroCheat was defenceless after tanking way too many attacks.
'ZeroCheat: HP 10%.'
"Brother Zero, NO!" ZeroCheat tried to run away from the Giant Demon King's attack. Yunyu screamed as he saw that giant claw attacked ZeroCheat and penetrated his back. The claw burst out of ZeroCheat's stomach.
"Urk…" ZeroCheat stared at Yunyu with desperation on his face, "So…rry… Yun… yu…"
ZeroCheat's body dispersed in front of Yunyu. He watched in horror as he screamed out loud, "BROTHER ZEROOOOO!!!"
XuanLake smirked. He had accomplished his mission, 'Yunyu is mine now.'
XuanLake finally finished charging his attack and attacked the Demon King, "Come forth! Pillar of Heaven!"
"RARRGGHHH!" a light pillar was summoned from the sky and purged the Giant Demon King until it was nothing but ashes.
'Giant Demon King: HP 0%.'
A notification popped up alongside the legendary drop, a Demon King's Horn.
(Giant Demon King has been slain!)
XuanLake picked the Demon King's Horn and put it inside his storage. He was adorning the legendary horn because this would allow him to slay all angels in the Tower of God. Since Yunyu's species should be an angel, he concluded that floor 90+ would have many angels.
XuanLake walked to the heartbroken Yunyu and put up a grieving expression. He hugged Yunyu gently and said, "I'm sorry, Yunyu. I cannot protect ZeroCheat… I tried my hardest, but I'm not fast enough to kill that Giant Demon King. I'm so sorry…"
Yunyu was too shocked to react. He was like a lifeless doll as he kept on wishing that ZeroCheat would magically respawn somewhere, or at least… at least…
Yunyu did not care about XuanLake, who hugged him right now. All he wanted to do was to restart.
He wanted to restart this world for real.
He would find another way to complete it without having to fill XuanLake's Fatemeter. Because honestly, he might have fallen in love with ZeroCheat, although he was not the main lead of this world.
Yunyu kept on calling Pupa.
[Pupa… Pupa… I need you right here, right now. I want to restart.]
[Pupa…]
Still, no answer, as if Pupa had disappeared out of existence, leaving him alone in this world.
"Yunyu, why are you so silent? I know that ZeroCheat is dead, but you still have me, right?" XuanLake said. He thought, by killing ZeroCheat, he finally had a chance. But Yunyu's reply surprised him;
"You… cannot replace Brother Zero…"
[Ding!...]
[Pupa?!]
Yunyu's eyes looked around to find Pupa, but after that Ding notification, there was nothing else. Until a text slowly popped out in front of Yunyu.
[Fatemeter: 100%.]
[Breakmeter: 20%]
[System's Message: Debugger.]
