Pause System: Harem In The Apocalypse

The horned ones were left in shock as their princess's figure vanish away with Gray. The orange haired man was even more infuriated. 'Helping the enemy, Is she insane!?!'. He slammed his hands into the ground, cracking it as he grounded his teeth.

"I won't stand for this… She better have some sort of plan!"

The princess's eyes looked around, surprise by the sudden change in scenery. In a flash they had gone from the first floor to the boss room of the second.

"Umu, this ability seems like something truly useful to have. Looks like choosing to help you was a good choice. Although It won't be for fr-"

Without bothering to finish, her eyes widened as she stared at Gray. Her expression had gone from that of surprise to confusion. "You… Why are you bleeding?" She asked.

Gray didn't understand the meaning of her words, he soon after discovered what they meant however, as his vision grew a blurry red.

After rubbing his eyes, it got a little better, but he could see a stream of fresh blood on his arms.

An instant later, Gray was on his knees his hand positioned in front of his eyes as he groaned out in pain. What had started off as a small stream, was now an ongoing massive flow of blood.

"GRAAAHHHH!!"

"So this is Gray's sister…" Violet muttered as she got a good look at her face. "They don't really look anything alike." She added.

Dark, long hair awkwardly hanged over her paused, tense face. Gorgeous lashes, stood gracefully above her shut eyelids. Ria's hair was a silky black, whereas Gray's was well, Gray.

Her appearance resembled that of a cute little angel who slept. Her figure, short and thin belonging to

"Mn, different hair colors…" Said Aurora as she nodded.

"Well Gray's hair color is unusual, I'd be surprised if her hair color was also named after him." Violet, proceeded to shake her head, as she had been diverting off topic. "Even so… How much longer is he going to take? This wound is definitely deep…" Violet added.

The cut off arm of a monster could be seen sticking out of her bloodied stomach. It had pierced it's way in through the back and still managed to go all the way through.

"Thankfully, Gray used his ability in time… But even still it worries me, will he be able to find a healer in such short time?"

Where would he find one? The only other people in this labyrinth were the horned ones. Realizing this, Violet frowned.

"Don't tell me he's going to try to get one of the horned people to heal-"

*Crash*

Violet was interrupted as a figure suddenly appeared before them. They had appeared out of thin air. At that instant, they reflexively, raised their hands pointing it at the two had appeared, ready to attack.

Once they saw that it was Gray, they sighed in relief, only for Violet to lower her hands right after, not noticing the other person.

"Gray, who's that behind you?" Aurora asked, her guard still up as shards of ice were formed in the air around her.

Because of the angle the other person was at behind Gray and because she had only focused her eyes on him. Violet hadn't noticed that there was a second person behind him. When she did, she felt chills go down her spine.

A female horned one with black horns, the top half of which being… Red. The girl had a battle Axe almost twice her size resting with a glowing red gem embedded in it. That very gem was placed on Gray's shoulder and seemed to have been activating some sort of ability on him.

'It can't be… Mind control!?' Violet assumed.

The air around him was different, he looked drained, out of it and in pain. There was a high chance the girl behind him was controlling him. Aurora also seemed to have come up with a similar conclusion. They grit their teeth ready to attack when all of the sudden-

"Don't… Worry… She's with us…" Gray muttered before turning to the horned one. "Heal her… Hurry up…" He added as he pointed towards his sister, her body levitated in the air as it was paused.

"Huh? Are you crazy? If I stop healing you now… You'll die." She said

Aurora and Violet were dumbfounded. Was it all a misunderstanding? Or was it just an act set up by the mind-manipulator.

"I don't care! Just shut up and heal her!" Gray shouted.

There was no telling when the cool down on pause would end, he was on edge.

"Humph… Rude…" She muttered, turning her head to the sides, her lower lip protruded in a sulky pout before she made her way towards his sister.

She gave a little wave to Aurora and Violet who were at a loss for words before standing before Ria. After inspecting his sister's floating body, a concerned look manifested upon her face.

"For starters we'll need to pull the arm out, in one clean motion too as it's stuck… And then I'll need to activate the healing right after… If I time it wrong with a wound this big… She could die…" She mumbled to herself

She turned to Violet and Aurora as if realizing something. "One of you pull it out while I focus on activating the ability, that'll make things-"

"On three." Gray muttered, standing straight. His hair covering his cold, lifeless expression.

"Oi, don't be crazy. If you use that ability again you'll-"

"One… Two…"

The red gem on her battle Axe began to glow brightly as she let out a sigh. "Alright, do it!"

"Three."

*Splatter*

,m In a blink of an eye, the large monstrous hand which had been sticking out of Ria, suddenly vanished without a trace, leaving behind a gaping hole in her stomach. Blood was gushing out of it, spilling into the floor at an uncontrollable rate.

Simultaneously, Gray's figure collapsed onto the ground beside them, blood could be seen gushing out of his mouth uncontrollably.

In that very instant, the horned one got to action, activating her ability as the flow of Ria's blood began to reverse back into her.
