    An knew what to do.


    "Run as fast as you can," An said to everyone.

    "Where are we running to? They have us surrounded!"


    Just then, An suddenly jumped up towards the railing and used it to boost himself up one of the houses.


    Then, he pped.


    CLAP CLAP CLAP CLAP


    "Come get me, you monsters!"


    An''s shout reverberated through the buildings and reached the rabid Canzers. The monsters whipped their heads towards the sound of his voice and immediately ran towards him. They were even crazier than they were before as if they found him to be better prey than the rest of these humans.


    He stayed on top of the roof, waiting for the Cancers to gather below him. He even let some of them climb up towards him, letting them think that they would soon be able to feast on him.


    But at the veryst second, An jumped back and created space between him and the Canzers. This led the monsters to be even more deranged as they chased An not knowing that this was all a part of his n. And as more Canzers chased him, the more Canzers followed behind thinking there was another group of humans there.


    Soon enough, the rest of the Saviors visibly saw the horde of Canzers lessen to the point that they could finally see the road beneath them.


    "What is he doing? Why is he sacrificing himself for us?"


    "Does he have another way out?"


    "Why?"


    The rest of the Olympians couldn''t understand why An would put himself at risk for all of them. They would understand if An did it to protect his family or his friends, but they all barely even knew each other.


    "He''s our Star Porter…"


    "That is a true hero…"


    The Genesians shouldn''t be surprised; this wasn''t the first time that An did this. They already heard about An''s heroic deeds, but it was another thing to witness it firsthand and be the recipient of his bravery. Some of them even thought that his story was exaggerated by others. Only when they saw him do it again did they finally understand. He was a hero.


    He didn''t even hesitate. As soon as everyone was on their ropes and the Canzers were about to overwhelm them, An immediately acted as if there was no debate in his mind.


    It was even more confusing once they all realized that An was only a porter with no skills to protect himself.


    Does he have no care for his SoulTime?


    They could all guess what would happen to him once those Canzers caught up to him. He would get wrangled into bits and pieces of flesh until there was nothing left of him but blood and bones. He would lose 99% of his SoulTime and get saved by the Angels until reinforcements arrived and brought back his blood to the church for healing.


    Then, he would experience an arduous recovery period where he would regenerate from a single blood cell taking years upon years until he finally returned to his old self.


    By then, he would be more than 100 years in debt to the City, meaning any missions that he did from then on would be halved as it automatically paid off his debt.


    Of course, they didn''t know that Angels were already extinct. No one would be saved if their SoulTime went to zero.


    If they knew that An was risking death by doing this, then they would owe him more than their lives.


    Yasmine, on the other hand, felt a prick in her heart when she looked at An''s fading figure. She didn''t know what to feel. She was angry at him for doing this, but she couldn''t help but worry for him.


    She wanted to run after him, but by doing that, she would invalidate all of his efforts. The rest of the people stuck here wouldn''t be able to go to the Colosseum without her help.


    I''ll get you back for this, Yasmine said in her heart.


    "Let''s go! I''ll lead you all out of the Remedium even if I have to incinerate the whole ce myself!"


    The rest of them were still dumbfounded by An''s heroic sacrifice. It was the kind of thing that the Olympians only heard about in legends like Hercules and Achilles.


    But once Yasmine shouted at them, they realized that they were still being surrounded by Canzers. This was the only chance they''d get to finally go back to the Colosseum and out the portal. They had to go.


    They all mounted their chariots and raced forth, with Yasmine and S leading the way. They had to kill the Canzers before they could even approach their chariots because they needed to protect the blinders. Without that, their mounts would turn into rabid Canzers and try to attack them.


    It was at this point that S noticed that Razer didn''te with them.


    "Razer! What are you doing?"


    But instead of looking at her, Razer looked to where An disappeared.


    "You think you can have all the fun to yourself, porter?"


    Razer jumped to the opposite side from where An disappeared.


    "The one with the most kills wins, got it?!" Razer shouted at the top of his lungs, making sure that An heard it even in the distance.


    His booming voice attracted a lot of Canzers that soon converged on his location. Just like An, he led them away from the main group and helped clear the way.


    ###


    An darted from street to street, with the Canzers running towards him at top speeds.


    They stumbled and trampled on each other just trying to catch this one human, but he seemed to always be one step ahead of them.


    An looked to the side and saw arge building with a closed roof.


    <Mall of Genesis>


    This was where he wanted to go. He led the hundreds of Canzers toward the shopping center.


    He smiled. This was the ce where he could finally go all out.
