The dice rolled slowly until it landed on a 16

  Hotaru and Katsuo fell to the floor as they clutched their hearts since it wasn't a 19/20 it didn't cause a full heart attack just a non-ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction a weakened heart attack that still severely wounded them

  Saikoro laughed "Checkmate.." before pushing the flies off of him since Hotaru was hurt it weakened them instantly.

  He grabbed a dice before throwing it up chanting

  "Dice Creation!"

  He rolled a 19 suddenly 19 dice appeared in his palm he then threw one up in the air before chanting

  "Exergonic Melody!!" His dice rolled slowly and landed on a 20

  "Good luck" Saikoro smiled as a blast of melody energy evaporated the flies and the ground near him before his body was melted away Hotaru summoned a large amount of flies to cover him and Katsuo but the shield of flies didnt last.

  Hotaru blinked rapidly the light from the blast blinding him.

  He opened his eyes and glanced down to his side as he noticed his right arm was completly burned off

  Katsuo was blocked by Hotaru who had absorbed the majority of the blast, Hotaru looked up at Saikoro who was now standing above him "Looks hella painful" he kneeled towards him

  "You know what man.. fair play!" He laughed jumping up

  "I was only getting into that one god that rush i need more more more!!" Saikoro jumped around high on the battle "You what im impressed i'll do you a favour" He dropped a dice down to Hotaru

  "How about this.." Saikoro grabbed the dice from the floor Let's get serious!!" He threw the dice up

  "Full body recovery!"

  The dice lingered in the air as Hotaru glared up at both Saikoro and it, it slammed to the floor landing on a 9. Saikoro jumped down to see it "Ahh Unlucky pal.. thatll lightly heal the burning pain but no regen for you!!" He chuckled as he danced around him Hotaru was in imense pain he closed his eyes and a vision of Kurai appeared

  "Thank you Hota!" He smiled

  A vision of Katsuo appeared "Thank you Sir"

  A vision of Shiki appeared "Thank you, pal"

  A vision of Lenton appeared "Thank you brother"

  A vision of Nozomi appeared "Thanks homie!"

  Until there was just a vision of a bright smiling woman who looked down on him

  "Oh Hota.. its okay.. your free now.." the woman raised his head into her arms As she spoke soft and sweet

  "I am so proud of you" the woman spoke softly Hotaru started crying

  "Oh Sarah im so sorry i couldnt save you or Kurai or Even Katsuo"

  He sobbed into her arms as he raised his head,

  Behind her Kurai, Katsuo Nozomi and Shiki sat laughing and smiling, Shiki Lobbed a piece of food at Katsuo who started shouting, Kurai and Nozomi couldnt stop their laughter

  "Oh Hota.. you never failed any of us.. you still have so long to go so much to protect.." she reached out her hand

  "Godspeed Hotaru.. Godspeed" as she raised Hotaru from his knees, she started to fade away leaving Hotaru in the vision alone but all he could feel were hands against his back pushing him forward.

  He stood slowly up eyes closed strained armless and burnt "Thank you everyone" he opened his eyes and screamed

  "I WILL NOT FALTER!"
