It looks like things were okay here... Rui got a report from Ayano that the battle in the other dungeon was still ongoing, and a bit of a struggle too. Having sent Sato and Alexei to take Ryan out of here, Rui set off with Kotori to the other dungeon. [hr] The battle against this what appears to be a paid off group of shadows was heating up, and their plan was a narrow failure. For until the final moment, it appeared as if it would work... But the shadow in the chair simply clicked it's fingers, and one of the swordsmen instantly appeared to it's side and intercepted Kazuki's attack. It was infuriating. Lashing out, he slew the shadow right there, but it left him open, and he was blown back by the bodyguard's massive figure. Rui upon arrival was seeing a rough battle, but with some extra hands they ought to be able to beat it now. [color=slategray]"Are you okay Kazuki?"[/color], [color=royalblue]"Do I look okay...? That damn fat bodyguard is in the way"[/color], he seemed a little ticked. He was a lot calmer first he saw him before the dungeon... This dungeon must have been quite an ordeal for him. [color=slategray]"Alright then... Okay I got it. Noboru, Akane, load me up with as much buffs as possible, Kazuki, Matthew and Kotori, keep them busy"[/color], among the ones here, he was the only one with a huge area-of-effect skill. That may have been what made this battle so difficult... However, if he gets heaped up with speed and power, he can possibly clear out all the swordsmen, gunners, and lady shadows, leaving the bodyguard weakened in the crossfire, then they can end it in one fell swoop.
