Moving around relentlessly, Aylife kept trying to break free from the chains. But it was a wasted effort, while Xitalu laughed mockingly.

"How annoying can you be? Just stay down and simmer down. I'm telling you what you really need to know." after a few more tries, the blue haired traveler finally stopped. Glaring at him with anger. "Finally. Now listen here you idiot."

"Don't wanna." he quickly replied, the scientist was caught off-guard as he was clenching his fist.

"WHAT DID YOU SAY?!"

"Not listening." putting his tongue out childishly, the blue haired scientist glares at him with annoyed expression. Slamming his fist into the wall to release his stress. The wall was shaking from his slamming as he came to a stop. Taking a deep breath and turns around while glaring straight into his eyes.

"Your friend Maro is going to become an asset to my 10 years of research. Because of her physical attire and unusual energy, her life force are stronger and bigger than any average human! She even rivaled that hero Tren!" he thought between his speech. As he continued, "With her great life force, I can pull out a strong energy that could destroy a dimension itself!" he smiled menacingly, "Though it would cost her life~" Aylife felt anger swelling inside him after hearing that. Pulling himself up and faced Xitalu with gritted teeth and angered eyes.

"I WON'T LET YOU DO THAT!" he declares straight into the professor's face, who was just smiling right back at him with a calm expression.

"Shout, shout, shout that's all you guys do." he babbled, and stared at him. "But you're also different... Aylife Fueko." he took Aylife's sword and inspect it. "This very alloy... is made out of a human's soul!"

He then pulled out the other one. "And this one is from a demon's soul!" he pointed his own blades at him as he asked. "What are you playing at? Swinging around these poor trapped souls inside a sword?" Aylife glared at him while gritting his teeth.

"That's none of your business!" Xitalu felt anger ticked inside him as he stabbed Aylife with his golden blade, his iris was fidgeting as he coughed out blood. His head limps down weakly but Xitalu wasn't finish with him.

"Can't you see? You've been using living souls as a tool! Do you know what would happen if it had break?!" he raged and pulled out the blade. The blue haired traveler coughed and weakly raise his head.

"I... know the risk!" something inside Xitalu ticked. "That's why... I took care of them! They protected me when I'm small, and I will protect them now!" the blue haired traveler declared, the professor stared at him with lifeless eyes and expressionless.

"Hopeless idiot... THESE SWORD WILL BREAK ONE DAY!" Xitalu raised the golden blade, and slashed across Aylife's chest, as he screamed in pain. Putting it down, he took the silver sword and held it. "THEIR SOULS WILL WITHER!" the scientist screamed as he slashed from the opposite direction, marking an X across Aylife's jacket. Aylife lets out another scream of agony.

Throwing the swords on the ground far from Aylife, Xitalu cleaned his shirt from the blood that had splattered on his lab coat. Turning his back on Aylife and walked away. His footstep echoes through the whole room.

"I..." the traveler mumbled, the professor kept on walking. "...won't... let you take Maro away..." the professor heard it and puts his hands inside his pocket. Waving back at him in an insulting manner.

"Just try kid. You won't win against me." the man said, a door opened up and dramatically closing. Aylife watched from afar through the darkness of his hair, his swords glowing with golden and silvery lights.

Firodile snapped out of his train of thoughts and looked around, seeing that everyone was still walking down the tunnel. It seems that he had fallen asleep while walking.

"Firodile? Are you okay?" Mizuki asked, approaching him from behind with a worried tone.

Glancing at her, he turned back to look ahead. "Nothing. Just thinking when are we gonna get out of this place." he answered, his voice wasn't very convincing. But he didn't seem like he was trying to convince her to believe his lies.

"We are almost there." X spoke up, he had a hologram radar on his right hand. The map shows that they are heading toward a giant place with lots of separated path, as X closed his radar. Tren looked at it with interested.

"Hmm, how did that device were able to map out the tunnel without any kind of information?" the knight asked with curiosity, amazed by the technology the robot has.

Smiling at his question, X explains. "I have a system which lets me use echolocation. "

April hops right beside them and said. "Oh~ you mean like what bats have?" brimming brighter than Flamer's flame, X nodded with a proud look.

"That is right! Bats used echolocation to find food in the dark while us human used it to find scraps in space." he proudly said it as April hums in a melody tone.

"Okay~!" she hopped back toward Mare, who was eyeing Flamer with curiosity. Unable to stop her from looking at him, Flamer's anxiety grew larger by the second.

"Human? Since when you're a human?" Firodile stepped between X's explanation, which made the robot ticked.

"Well at least I'm not a perverted guy who stares at breast everyday." X picked on Firodile, who felt anger swelling up inside him.

"WHAT DID YOU SAY?!" Firodile stomps his way while scowling at the white haired robot. Who turned around to face the red haired pervert, "You hear me! A pervert!" they both collided their heads in unison and glared at each other's eyes. Their forehead was pushing against each other while Shade watched from the back.

Fooling around at this peaceful moment? the demon thought, closing his eyes back and ignore the two's ranting against each other.

"Stalker!"

"Dumbass!"

"Robot!"

"NEET!"

"Machine!"

The argue kept going as Mare sweat dropped at those two. April cheerfully said, "Don't mind them~ they have always been like that since we first meet~." Mare hums in curiosity as Copy was sleeping on top of her head.

"Umm... Copy?" she called out to the cat, who opened one of his eyes to stare at her. "Why are you sleeping on my head? N-Not that I'm mad or anything..." the cat moved around before pulling out its paw from its body.

"Mm... well, your hair is so comfortable... and you reminds me of my master." the cat mumbled, rustling its own head on Mare's hair.

"I- I see." she smiled at the compliment. Looking down in embarrassment. "S-So... what kind is your master is like?" the maid asked, as the cat wondered, his eyes shut tight with a hint of laziness.

"Hmm~" the cat hums, "She is a shy person... and she doesn't talk very much. Her mother gave me some delicious food, and not just cat food! Sometimes, she gave me some chicken that even Maro and her mother couldn't stomach in." Copy drools at the thought of the delicious food that Maro's mother made. Mare laughed nervously. "And?" she asked, as Copy was snapped out of his thoughts.

"Oh yeah! Maro is also a kind person! Just like her mother! And she also likes to help people! Despite how incapable she is to do hard labor. She's hardworking and always remember to do this homework." Copy grins by himself proudly and Mare slightly nodded, not trying to shake Copy off her head.

"And she's our best friend~ isn't that right~? Firo and X?" April turned around, as X grins creepily. "That is right April-chan~!" he sways his body around like an idiot, as Firo just grunts to himself.

"She's an important friend to all of us." he said, Mare turned around to look at the red haired pervert, who was looking away. "Without her around, we wouldn't have a reason to stay at our school." this has somehow made April happy on the inside, Mare quietly stared at him with a calm look, before it turned into a smile. Mizuki was walking behind him with her expressionless look. Shade quietly stared Firodile from behind, somehow heard what his rival had said. Flamer kept moving forward without stopping, he smiled at the thought of saving Maro now. X was entranced for a while.

"I didn't know a pervert like you could say something like that." Firodile felt his veins throbbing in anger.

"WHAT DID YOU SAY?!" he yells in anger, X sighed calmly and looked ahead. "We're here." he smiled, opening his hologram map and read the description. "Hmm... here it says that this place is called the Lab of Truth." Flamer flinched as his flames suddenly went out. Eliminating the only light source they have. Mare went into panic and quickly hugged the person that was close to her.

"Oi Flamer! What are you doing?!" Firodile shouted in the darkness, a loud crash can be heard as Mizuki's eyes glows red.

"Shut it you idiot." she said, her fist was smoking through the darkness.

"Sorry about that. I just lost my concentration for a second there." Flamer puts his flame back on as he realized that Mare was hugging his arm. The look on her face resembles that of a scared kitten, she looked up to him with a small sniff.

"Don't do that again..." she squeals in fear, as Flamer blushed at her cute face.

"O-Okay!" he smiled, as he could felt Tren's death stare from his back. Tren squinted his eyes as hard as he can goes, with each second passing by, Flamer could feel his stare cutting through his body deeper and deeper inside. Flamer gently pushed Mare away from him before sighing. And looked at the laboratory that is connected to the tunnel.

The laboratory was built within the stone, small hemisphere tunnel lit with lights could be seen from above, all of them were connected to each other, but all of them had one path in common. There was a giant cube that all the hemisphere tunnel was headed to. As X scans the giant cave with his eyes.

"The scale of that thing can be compared with that huge worm from before but I can't confirm it until further analysis." X said, as Mare flinched.

"Ehh! So that thing is bigger than that worm?!" the maiden shrieks in fear, as her husband walked to his side.

"Don't worry my queen. I will be here to protect you." Tren said with a smile, making her blush. Firodile quietly grunts in the back, rubbing the back of his head in pain.

"Cheesy." he muttered.

Tren grins, "It's called true love my friend." feeling a bit annoyed by the prince, Firodile stomps his way to pick a fight with him, but he was stopped by none other than Shade and Flamer.

"DAMN YOU!" he shouted at the prince, ignoring the pervert, the prince smiled as X slowly observes the way down. It seems like they could sneak into the laboratory from the roof. He smiled as he turned around.

"We could get down there safely by-" he choked on his words when he saw Jet behind April, his hand was slowly reaching her neck. The time was slowed down as X turned on his jet thruster from his back, his hand was slowly changing into the steel blades. He had already passed by Flamer and Mare. To him, everything around him has slowed down, but it didn't. It was just his speed that had broken the sound barrier, Tren's eye could barely keep up with the white haired robot, as he raises his almost unsheathed steel blades, thrusting toward April's left with his right, Jet casually moved his eyes toward X, as he raised his jet black sword. Parrying the blades as time speeds up again.

A blast of wind had just clashed near April's head. As April shrieked in shock, Firodile had tackled her down as a lot of blades clashing against each other was happening right behind her.

"Someone's here! Everyone quickly ran toward the laboratory!" Firodile shouted. Tren trusted Firo's word, as he carries Mare up with a bridal style.

"Come on everyone! We need to make sure that they never know we're here!" the prince shouted, Flamer was confused for a while until he heard the blades clashing echoes through the tunnel. Realizing that one of his accomplices were here, he slides down the cave with the unconscious kid on his arm. Mizuki creates her scythe from her blood, as she was dragged away by Shade.

"Shade. What are you doing?" the impaler asked, as the demon glance at her and said.

"It's not an opponent we haven't met before. They clearly know who they are dealing with." after hearing that, Mizuki took a second to look toward Firodile, who just stood back up with April on his side. Her eyes looked down unsightly as they jumped down and slides toward the laboratory.

Firodile gets back up and brushed his shirt, focusing so that he could see how the fight goes. Time slows down again as X clashes his steel blades with Jet, who is completely emotionless even when fighting. Pulling his sword back, Jet swings his sword toward X's neck, who quickly blocks it with his right steel blades, but Jet was quicker than he thought. Landing his fist into X's face and pushing back against X's jet thrusters and raw strength. X's jet thruster went back into his body as he crashed into the wall. He grunts and quickly gets away from the wall. Firodile stopped focusing and pulled out his giant sword from a portal that he opened in the ground.

"April!" he shouted, as the purple haired girl nodded, pulling out her gun from the dimensional rift, she focused her energy on the bullet hole, as it materialized into bullets.

"Star Bullet!" Pulling the trigger on her gun, the bullet goes after the man with the darkness. Parrying the bullets with the tip of his blade, Jet lunges at April with speed faster than light, as he had already appeared in front of her. Unable to catch up with his speed, Firodile swings his sword toward Jet's back, who just blocked it with his blade, holding it with his left hand now. Jet tried pushing back with raw strength, but Firo overcomes his strength when it reaches to that profession about fighting.

Unable to fight back, Jet grunted at his lack of strength. Firodile was able to reach his hand to grab Jet's jacket, and heaves him away from April single-handed.

"Boost Jump!" X boosted toward the dark mythos, who opened his eyes and blocked the steel blades before it could cut his neck off. Pushing back against the shadow user and slammed him into the tunnel's ceiling.

"Drill Thrust!"X kept pushing, screaming at the top of his lungs(?). Jet coughs when the impact of the ceiling hit his back, as he glares at the robot. The darkness around them were surrounding Jet, as he disappeared in a flash. The darkness escaped X Drill Thrust and went through him. Firodile stays in a spot, waiting for any kind of movement. The ground grumbles, as Firodile stands his ground, despite being a girl, April also managed to make a stand.

"What now?!" the red haired teenager grunts, as the ground under them was destroyed, revealing a giant worm that resembles of the previous one. But with a little bit of difference on the skin color. Shocked at the sight of the second worm, Firodile and April started falling into its gigantic gaping mouth. As they were falling, Firodile inches his way as best as he could toward April. Who seemed to be scared at the situation.

"April! Grab my hand!" the man said, as he ran out of rocks to jump on, gliding on the air. He held his hand out, as April did the same. Their hands were slowly closing onto each other, as April gave her last spurt. Thanks to that last spurt, her hand was within his range. As he smiled, and grabbed onto her hand, which suddenly disappeared along with the said person.

"Eh?" apparently, Jet had quickly jumped onto a few rocks, grabbed April's hand, and floated up into the ground with the speed faster than light. As Firodile falls down with a scowl. "DAMN YOU!"

X landed on the ground, realizing that April has been taken away. "APRIL!"

"AREN'T YOU WORRIED ABOUT ME?!" Firodile shouted, as X ran after them. Ticked off by his action, Firodile shouted in anger. "THAT DAMN ROBOT!" his shouting stopped when the worm swallowed him up.

X, being dense about his friend's situation. Ran after Jet, who had disappeared into the laboratory along with April. He slides down the cliff, gritting his teeth as if he was holding his anger. The other's had already entered the laboratory through a broken window. Fortunately the alarm hasn't rang yet.

Just wait April! I will come to save you!

Next time on Dimension Traveller!

"What kind of friend are you?!" -Flamer.

"Don't worry. For now we need to find April." -X.
