The arrows of Eros contained power and strength that far surpassed what people of his level could do. And Eros was still not a bow expert! He knew many parts of his technique were wrong, and his mory only gave him a sense of how to shoot, but his routine and technique were less efficient.
Still, he managed to land his attacks.
Eros aid for the head where no defensive armor protected them, and the arrow pierced through the head of the first creature and damaged another.
He would have been one of the top levels in the army that Duke Ressongraze would have commanded.
Serena and Philip's arrows, though not as impressive as Eros, could still one-hit kill an imp with their stats and the strong weapons they had.
"Don't be afraid! Your weapons are very strong! These imps and gremlins won't be a challenge to you!" Eros shouted.
But as the monsters approached, Eros noticed that the imps and gremlins approaching appeared to have better gear, the only available armor they had appeared to be the skins and bodies of other imps!
"Don! Wesret! Join as the vanguard! Philip! Serena! Keep shooting from the back!" Eros ordered as he stepped forward and continued to rain his arrows on the enemies.
Because of the piercing state of Eros's arrows and the instant-kill arrow attacks of Serena and Philip, the dead imps began to pile up and were adding obstacles to the imps, making it difficult to run through the area.
"Keep it up! Wesret! Don! Start throwing rocks at them!" Eros ordered as he ducked and began to tie a fire or bomb on the side of an arrow.
His allies all acted according to his order, and the pile of dead monsters had now beco a small mound that made the gremlins struggle to push through.
Eros finally stood up and shot his arrow right as his mana began to envelop the fire or bomb.
FWIP!
The arrow shot through one of the imps and pierced through it and pierced another.
BOOM!
A small explosion occurred again as the blast caused the imps to stumble, and the mound of corpses collapsed, giving the rest better aim.
"Keep shooting! But the advance on my command! We will fight them in close combat!" Eros declared as the group made its march.
Eros gave specific instructions as to when they would advance and when they would shoot.
After several steps, it was ti for them to engage in close combat.
"Attack!" Eros charged forward. Wesret and Don followed.
Serena and Philip also began to reach for the swords and spears on the wheelbarrow nearby.
Eros envisioned the attack that Kyros would usually do with his sword and with his foot. In the latter parts of Kyros's life, his movents used nurous abilities and skills, that Ravagers, Blitzer, or Quick Blades. All of his movents easily combined these things.
Eros focused on using a Blitzer dash and slash attack.
Force energy empowered his legs allowing him to dash forward with great speed.
Blitzers used large swords like the Ravagers. But the key difference is that Ravagers focus on damage and defense, while Blitzers abandon defense for speed. Though they are not as fast as Quick Blades, their training and combat style is to move with intense speed.
This class was laughed at and mocked on the planet where Eros was. To Eros's knowledge, no one would take a Blitzer job. But this was because the foundation of the kingdom was weak.
In the Planesworld, Blitzers go through strength training, and the added speed was ant to increase the damage of their attack. It was a beautiful harmony where Dexterity and Strength would unite in union.
Eros made a wild slash and managed to use his sprint to deliver a powerful attack.

SLASH!
The blade sliced through an imp, but using the speed and velocity of his charge, Eros was still able to rush and continue the sa slash.
SLASH!

The notifications all appeared and revealed the damage of his one slash. This was the power of a Blitzer job!
Three Ims and two gremlins were caught in the attack and killed three instantly.
The last one who took the attack was an Imp, and Eros's sword was stuck deep inside its chest, and the Imp was screaming in pain.
The Blitzer's attack could tear through mobs, and if Eros had a larger blade, he would have been able to kill more.
But Eros's spinning slash had lost velocity, and many imps were on his side and attacked him.
STAB!
SLASH!
Wesret and Don attacked from the side to kill the enemies that were about to attack.
Philip and Serena followed.
Eros quickly retreated and prepared for another round of his Wild Spinning Slash.
The four now had higher dexterity and were moving and reacting faster.
"Concentrate! Your increased Dexterity stat will help you avoid all the attacks! And though these imps are more ard and armored, you still have the better equipnt!" Eros shouted.
"Switch!" Eros shouted. His allies retreated, and he ran forward to perform Wild Slash again.
SLASH!
SLASH!
The rows of monsters fell as Eros could see the roughly sa amount of damage and did his spin.
But then...
THUD!
Eros felt a strange sensation as he felt that the foe before him The vitality and armor of the Gremlin were stronger!
The sword was lodged in and didn't even kill the creature! The was not an ordinary gremlin.
The vitality and armor of the Gremlin were stronger!
The sword was lodged in and didn't even kill the creature! The Ravagers Wild Spining cut had abruptly ended!
"Quick! Retreat!" Eros shouted as he kicked and pulled the sword engraved deep into the strange, wooden body of what appeared to be a 'gremlin.' He quickly threw a small fire or bomb and pulled his allies, who were about to make an attack.
True enough, the gremlins were faster! Faster than Eros's team!
BOOM!
The fire ore bomb exploded, but these Gremlins retreated and avoided the attack.
The Gremlin that Eros attacked with the Wild Spinning Slash was thrown toward them.
"They're not gremlins!" Eros warned.
The Gremlin that died from the blast began to change in appearance as a strange illusion magic altered its form.
The Gremlin had noticeable ridges and bumps with a leathery feel. But this creature was more like wood!
"What the...? That's a Puk!?" Eros was stunned.
"What the puck?" Serena repeated.
"A stronger form of Imp! Everyone! Get back!" Eros used his guage to bring out the stat of the Puck he just killed.

Eros's hands trembled. This stats were high! The enemy was strong!
The smoke and dust settled, and now, the magic that made them look like gremlins disappeared.
The monsters laughed a sinister chuckle.
"These tricksters!" Eros cursed.
He saw a row of Puks standing before him.
The magic disappeared as the Puks all ford ranks. They stood up and were even taller than the Gremlins.
But a strange creature could be seen marching from the back.
The creature was a head taller than the Pucks and had a height that was comparable to a tall man. It had horns like that of a ram and twirled into a spiral. It was covered in fur and was pitch black.
It held a grotesque sword that had teeth like a saw.
Eros saw the beast and couldn't help but tremble. He had vastly underestimated his enemy. He thought that the Imp Demon would only command these few creatures and would send dozens of gremlins and imps. But it seed that the Imp Demons' followers were not just level 1 creatures. It had a vast army with nurous races and imp breeds!
The creature before him was at least level 10! It had stats that surpassed what Eros had!
Eros knew that this was a dangerous state. There were still crowds of Pucks surrounding the creature, and Eros feared that his team would not be able to win.
The creature glanced at the humans and growled in anger.
"Idiot imps and gremlins cannot kill humans? Useless!" The creature spoke in its tongue, and Eros could tell it was the sa imp language.
"Rot Fiend! Mage among them!" A Puck answered.
"Yes. Bomb magic. I saw." The creature answered.
Eros was quiet but was thinking of plans as he slowly ordered his team to walk back.
"Get the oil potions..." Eros quietly ordered.
"Kill-"
Eros quickly ran forward and threw a rock at the creature.
SMASH!
The tall creature slapped at the stone to send it back.
The rock flew with great speed, but Eros was ready and swung his sword to deflect the rock again.
DING!
"Smart. You thought it was a bomb and punched it back." Eros spoke in the sa tongue as the creature.
He needed to buy ti, and this was the solution he thought of. He then gave more quick orders to the rest of his team.
"Speak you, imp language?"
"Yes. And if you want to fight, we can kill and wound you! Retreat!" Eros shouted back.
"Retreat?" The goat laughed.
"Rule of Hell Path, no monster retreat! We fight! We eat! Or we die! If humans want war, then Imp Horde will give them war! After we kill you, we shall invade the humans who dared attack the Demon Imp's Army!" The goat laughed.
