*Bang!*
The loud sound echoed through the goblin settlent as the huge stone pillar in the centre was shattered into a thousand pieces.
My hand grabbed the neck of a huge monster, neither a goblin nor a hobgoblin but an Ogre.
Blood oozed from the creature's body as countless sharp, jagged stones penetrated its flesh, causing the Monster to tremble and thrash in my hand.
*Crack*
I tightened my grip, feeling the wonderful sensation of bones breaking a sense of terror in the Ogre's milky white and green eyes.
"Is that all you have?"
With an exhilarated taunt, my body tensed before slamming the huge Monster down repeatedly into the broken debris as its hands grasped my wrist, trying to crush my bones to get free.
But I ignored the pain coming from it.
As the Ogre and I were creatures with almost limitless stamina and vitality, I would destroy this brute before anything else.
This Monster had given a lot to think about...
An Ogre was sothing not just any goblin could beat. Even the normal goblins could not match up to an Ogre in Strength, speed or regeneration.
Only Hobgoblins and similar evolution paths had even the slightest chance of competing.
That's why this was the boss of the goblin settlent, and it was quite interesting how they were like slaves to this bastard. He even had a stupid crown and pretended to be so king.
No simple monster should be capable of that kind of hierarchic control. So I got my answer; there must have been sothing very unusual in this ogres lineage.
"Speak. What is controlling you? Speak!"
"Y-you damn ape, how can trash like you injure a mighty Ogre like ? Y-you-"
*Bang!*
Shut up, Damn fleabag!
I grabbed his throat, tightening my grip with a clenched jaw. I'll tear everything out from the bottom up and let him suffocate slowly until he tells what I want.
*Cra- crack! Cra-crack*
Slowly his weak attempts of resisting weakened, and his entire body began trembling, begging for forgiveness with its gaze and waving its broken arms uselessly in the air, seemingly indecisive between ripping apart or dying first.
My hair began to stand on its end, clearly sothing dangerous was about to appear, but I didn't show fear or worry; instead, my fist began to punch the Ogre, breaking the rest of its bones as its green face distorted into an ugly one with its teeth tearing apart.
Finally, It seed like the Ogre's strength had reached its limits.
As my fist crushed the Monster's chest and lungs, the Monster started a last-ditch effort, yet it was aningless as my mouth puffed out before a huge fla blew into its face.
*woosh*
Everything burned to a crisp; the Ogre's innards, muscles, and skin were turned into ashes while a half-intact skull and ribs lay before as they fell to the ground before I crushed them under my feet.
-> Ogre Warrior Killed
It was at that mont that the source of my tingling instincts appeared...
A hobgoblin shaman with a bone staff and its body wrapped in a black, murky mana-like robe advanced towards from the Ogre's massive hut, glaring as its green face resembled a ghast.
"V'elm kan! Sizna Dark Bolt!"
A black bolt the size of a small dagger suddenly shot towards , burning its way into my shoulder and damaging it with dark and poison mana, making grit my teeth at the sudden attack.
As blood gushed out, the sll of its pungent rotting poison was strong enough to affect even , so this wasn't a normal creature anymore.
"I am done testing its main attack..." I whispered before stepping forward and moving to attack the shaman.
In retaliation, the shaman began to summon those dark bolts en masse! The terrifying sight of more than a few hundred bolts rging in front of it made the scenery resemble a graveyard for souls as they shot out like rain towards , quickly enveloping the clearing.
*Thud*
Unimpressed, I stepped ahead, ignoring all the bolts that crashed against my flesh, causing damage while more and more cuts were spreading and my wounds healing.
Finally, it created enough. With an insane look, the shan jumped up and pointed its staff towards the bolts. "Kilana Rakkan"
Suddenly the entire horde of death magic ford an eerie twirl of magic as the small bolts began to fuse into long, sharp spiked lances!
"Hihihihi, die fool..."
Excited by my actions, the shan gleefully thought dood. This amount of spell power was astonishing compared to what it had shown before!
Good!
We managed to fool the idiot into thinking I was alone, a dumb berserker who would only fight and not dodge! Lumia, it's all on your beautiful ass! My heart called out as the storm of black lances sped towards .
*Thudd*
A whisper sounded to the Shan, causing it to feel surprised, but its focus on the spell was too great to turn to the sound of the constant howling and whistling wind from the east.
Thus it couldn't see the beautiful blue-haired elf standing on top of the goblins storehouse, her longbow now with a wolf's skull design shooting arrow after arrow, a blue magical light flashing from the tip of each as she rapidly shot four arrows at a ti creating a hail of arrows emptying two quivers in less than 20 seconds.
Each arrow, without fail, reached its mark and penetrated the Shan's body, resulting in an eerie expression, shocked that its attack had failed. It soon crumbled to the floor with a look of confusion and surprise.
"Archer, huh..." A bloody hand reached forward. Its nails, which looked like black tal, dug into its head before flicking upwards.
"For a Goblin that looks to be of a high magic tier. He fell for that too easily."
My words beca a reality as a huge hand ca from the sky, dark, oozing a black ooze while rushing towards Lumia as if to crush her body with the house-sized hand that caused the air to stink of rotting death and decay.
And while she did jump back, avoiding the hand, that sa hand suddenly turned towards the shaman below and pierced its chest before crushing it with its fingers while turning back into mist and forming again.
Why did it commit self-harm?
My understanding of shadow magic or necromancy was zero, and the helpful goddess was not here! So I needed to learn to use my mind and body, Lumia was in danger, and she was one of my lovers!
"Ti for the best attack against such magic! The age-old thod used to destroy a Necromancer, like in all fairy tales and bedti stories, I simply... Burn everything!"
⟪Flaming Wolf Fist⟫
I ignited my arms in flas, lunging towards his newly repaired body as the stench of death around this shaman worsened, and the huge hand grew sharp claws in return!
Seeing the sudden developnt, the shaman grew tense and released all the mana in their body, changing his robe and staff into a dark cloak and scythe.
Now unprotected, the shaman seed more like the grim reaper with glowing eyes and a creepy shadow beneath his hood, yet he could not have thought that this ant I could directly attack him, as his previous evading attacks were over and done with.
*boom*
With an explosion, the shaman's figure was flung to the other end of the village, crashing against the rocks, debris and buildings rolling in the air, seeming dazed as my agile body darted after him, flying through the sky before hamring his airborne body back into the ground, causing a deep crater and bang.
Bloody spit flew out of his mouth before his dark body trembled, and its aura turned paler as a huge, ghastly bird erged from behind his cloak with its wings opening.
"Now we're getting serious..." I smirked with my sharp fangs.
The sight of a giant decaying bird coming to attack was overwhelming, yet that only brought my bloodlust to a new level!
"Get lost, puny ghost!"
My burning hand struck down at the Shan's weak defence, easily shattering his bones and flesh before I raised it and turned towards the skeletal bird.
With a flap of its wings, a small sonic boom hit my body—the surrounding air pressure and lightning mixed with wind and electricity. The air felt heavy, like a dense raincloud, before it crashed against .
However, to my amusent, it was pathetically weak, as if a child was trying to beat an adult and caused nothing but the most superficial wounds to my exposed torso.
"Rai! Your ARM!?"
"Eh?"
*Drip* *Drip*
Blood was oozing from the stump of my right arm; there was a delay... I didn't feel anything until my eyes saw the wound and realised its attack had sliced my arm off instantly.
"Tsk! Rude bastard..." I gritted my teeth.
I never expected to get damaged to this degree by a damn bone bird! Yet now, this damn bird's attention was fixated solely on my body, not looking away anymore.
"Damn... it's a suicide bird, isn't it!?" My body felt annoyed, cold and rage flooding like the water and flas surrounding a drowned pyre.
Lumia ran forward, reaching my left side and grabbing my shoulder with an ashen face stained with cold sweat, her gaze filled with horror, guilt, and ferocity.
Turning away from and glaring at the flying, ghastly skeleton before she spoke with a dark, violent voice.
"Kill."
"Yes, we will kill, bird!"
Her arm lifted her bow, glowing with brilliant magical colours and mana swirling around her arrows, one Knocked and four between her fingers, as I grabbed my severed arm and dashed forward.
Since she seed able to kill it, I would protect her with my body! Since the damn bird was fixated on !
A smile and a thank you reached my lips as Lumia released her shot, a glowing green arrow was aid precisely at the eyehole in the bird's skull, speeding faster and faster before it burst into a windy glow!
With the thunderbolt as a rear guard, the arrow's sharp tip was consud by an icey, red fla before the wind strengthened it and enhanced its penetration power.
The way she shot her arrows with different elents rapidly, her fingers started bleeding, but I found her visage to be beautiful as she locked her azure eyes on the bird alone!
"Fire Arrow. Ice Arrow. Poison Arrow, Water Arrow."
Swinging my right hand in the air, I held onto the bloodied, severed limb and pulled my head back, filling my mouth with a powerful fireball, hoping to shoot it the mont before the fused arrows hit its target.
And suddenly, a cracking sound burst forth before the arrow collided with the bird's head. In an explosion, its entire head was smashed into a thousand pieces, the ghoul screeching like a tortured banshee before its body turned to ash in mid-air.
*Blorp*
Before it was sucked away, the large clouds ford from a constant spell dispersed, leaving only a starry night sky above while our figures stood on the bloodied, ruined soil, left in the middle of a settlent overturned with corpses.
Yet it was over.
I didn't get a chance to fire my fireball, but then as I was about to swallow the mana... Sothing occurred to !
No!
There was no announcent!
I turned back, seeing the shaman's broken body, limping as it stood behind Lumia with a sharp dagger aid down at her back.
It was too late to warn her, so I used the fla in my mouth, directing its flow towards the goblin.
Suddenly it froze as Lumia's free left hand swung backwards. A small glaive-like knife, covered with a dark aura, rushed like the winds, penetrating the shan's mouth as she slashed out its throat.
She then kicked out with her right leg, cracking another bone, before leaping away with the montum as my huge fla enveloped the bastard's body and lted it instantly.
Then I heard the crisp and clean word resounding in the air.
