Preparation for Battle

Alex started getting worried more and more. He ran around inside the formation wondering if there was any special place, hoping even that there was one. However, no matter what he did, the feeling just wouldn't go away. 

Instead, it grew more and more, and soon the beasts would come here. He had an hour or two at most, maybe even less. 

"No, no, no, no. I have to do something. I need to run away from here, or this place will turn to hell," Alex thought. 

His masters, his senior brother and sister, his friends, and everyone else he ever cared about in this game, in this world, they were all here. If the reason they were hurt ever turned out to be him, he would never forgive himself.

"What should I do?" he started thinking. The only thing he could think of was to go ask the Royal Alchemist for help.
