章節 174: Nasty Goblin Riders
-Life Guild Hall-
"To be honest with you, I somehow managed to find a sword that can make me transform into like a form of a monster soul. Also, it's my first time using it to a real battle." I was hoping that he could really help me with this.
"Have you checked your stats if it's on your masteries? A monster soul usually is listed as additional masteries." Oh, I'm not really sure.
"I checked it before but there's nothing like that on my stat." It doesn't add anything on my stats but it boosts my capabilities once I use it.
"Can the sword talk to you for some reason?" He asked.
"Yeah it can talk to me and it can only talk to me." And it's kind of annoying too.
"Well, I think the weapon chose you as its master. Like monster souls, we need to absorb and cultivate their power before we can use them but your weapon, on the other hand, is like a power-up. It can't be improved but if you can advance your own abilities, you can use your weapon better. It's like " Well, he's kind of right. With my current self right now, I'm still too weak. I have to improve my abilities more and practice using the sword.
"Ok, let me show you how I transform," Thank God, Akko brought my sword too. If I left it on the battlefield then it's like looking for a needle in the haystack.
"Hmmmm...? It's not working!" What happened? Why am I not transforming?
"I'm too tired. I can't let out power for now. I have to rest too." Bright Edge! It looks like she's out of fuel too.
"How long would it take to get your power back?"
"Are you talking to me? Because if you're talking with your sword, that would be weird." Scy exclaimed.
"Oh, it looks like my sword, for some reason, is too tired. Maybe I really overdid it last time."
"You can use me again tomorrow. Please keep in mind that you can only use my full potential once a day." No wonder. Well, that's acceptable. She can't just unleash power just by not doing anything.
"I bet you did. You even defeated the Dracotaur. I heard they call you the "Dragon Slayer" now. It sounds badass if you ask me." Really? Wow, I never thought that I could even defeat the Dracotaur. Maybe I was just too lucky.
"I just want to help that time, that's all. Anyway, where the heck are you when we need you? If you helped us, maybe we can really stop and defeat the invasion." I blurted out. Now I've said it.
"When you were away with the army, we were supposed to investigate the castle while you guys are waiting but the Icy Mountain is heavily guarded by the army so I went alone. I've met Shiv and one of their allies on my way. We tried to look for clues for the coming invasion and found that there are more than we expected. So we slip through and found a cave but there's a narrow bridge made of stone. Shiv pushed me and fell but of course, I have Thunderbird so I was able to fly up ahead and because I'm pissed, I destroyed the bridge and made them fall. That caught the attention of the monsters nearby, which are Legendary Bosses. I hid in the cave and I found the Frozen King. I tried to escape by tricking him but when I came out; there are a lot of monsters waiting for me outside. Making the long story short, I fought with them but I lost. I thought I died but fortunately, I was just petrified by the Lamia. That's the reason I wasn't there when you need me. I'm sorry." Wow... He did really explain everything that happened! And I thought he still has a grudge with the Order of Light guild.
"Well, that's really a long story. If people also are hearing your story maybe they'd be sleeping now. Joking aside, I know that there's an important reason why you were missing in action a while back. You're Scy after all." I respect him for saving my life and stopping me from making tough decisions. I have to somehow return the favor.
We heard a noise of footsteps coming towards us.
"Hey Elou, what's wrong?!" Elou rushed towards us and he looks exhausted.
"We were able to save most of the people in Simple Town but the place is really in a mess. Also, there's no undead there but only monsters that made an alliance with the Frozen King. Do you remember the Goblin Rider Boss inside the cave?" I have no idea who the Goblin thingy is.
"Yeah, I remember him clearly. We almost got wiped out by him and his pesky goblins, so what about him?" Scy asked.
"He's their leader," Elou replied. Well, there's a "Boss" in his name so I bet he's the leader.
"What? But compared to our current status, he should be a piece of cake now right?" Scy replied.
"Yeah, but he's even more powerful this time. I bet he got a good boost from the Frozen King." Elou's right. The monsters we fought are way too powerful for us. We have to plan.
"So where are the people of the Simple Village? Did they reach the city of Order of Light?" Scy worriedly asked.
"Ahhmmm... they're here actually. Some of the monsters are riding wolves so if we travel and try to reach Order of Light city then they might catch up with us so by going to the forest, their speed slowed down and for some reason, they didn't chase us after entering the forest." Elou explained.
"Give them a place to rest. It looks like their targets are those nearby villages. The Vanguard Stronghold already lost their castle and neighboring cities. Then I guess their next target is the Order of Light city. What will the Order of Light guild do in this kind of situation? Should we help them?" Scy asked. I don't know what to say. Even Elou stayed silent.
*FLAP FLAP FLAP!* Suddenly, the eagle of Elou came! It stared at me with really "I hate you" face. The eagle tried to talk to Elou but of course, I know she's saying "I hate that girl".
"What?! Scy! The monsters and the Goblin Rider Boss are coming towards our guild!"
"Oh jeez. I forgot that our guild is also near the Vanguards Stronghold. We have to stop them. If they haven't reached our guild yet then, it is better if we could ambush them on the way. Tell Akko and Lili's team to come with me. Yours and my team will stay here to defend the guild if something bad happens." Scy ordered. This is bad...
"Let me help Scy!" I exclaimed. I want to be of help!
"Just don't get killed. Let's go." So we moved out.
We headed out but I'm really not that comfortable with the people I'm with. I haven't really talked to them, unlike my teammates. Most of them are quite serious and silent.
"It will take some time before they can locate the location of our guild. So before they can reach it, we have to teach them a lesson that no one messes with our guild." Nice speech Scy.
We set our plan exactly like what we did with the raid of the Centaurs.
-South Forest-
"Kachaaaa! *sniff sniff*" They're here. The wolves are sniffing the scent of those who escaped the raid. Now that explains why they found the way to our guild. We are currently hiding a bit far from them. But it's not that long before they meet their doom. There are like fifty of them.
Horses started to whine near them. It's Meraz with his dark horsemen. They really creep me out for some reason. There is also Chiron who's already in his Beast Form.
*KACHAAAAA!* The goblin riders were way too easy to agro.(means to become aggressive or target someone away from the others).
They rushed towards Chiron and Meraz and his summons, just like we planned.
*Violin sounds* Rera used her special spell that can make those who hear her violin sounds get drowsy. And I think I'm getting sleepy too... Wake up!
The Goblins started to move slowly and trying to stand up but the curse is real and they are having a hard time moving.
*SWOOOOOSH SWOOOOSH SWOOOOSH!* Random spells were cast and now flying towards the Goblin riders! Different kinds of elements from Rera with her Elemental Rhythmic Explosion bombarded the area.
*BOOOOOM BOOOOOM!" They were too defenseless and were easily slaughtered.
This time, the assassins entered the area. Beat and Kaita slaughtered the rest after the bombardment stopped while Jaine is writing stuff and buffing everyone with good support spells.
Petula and Elle didn't come with us because Petula is like our main alchemist and some kind of like a doctor so she's good when it comes to healing people. Elle's golem is, on the other hand, a good way to defend our guild so she's currently guarding too. Both of them are with Lili and Akko back in the guild.
*GRRRRRR! KACHAAAA!* What?! Some of them are still alive and it looks like one of them is the leader!
*BAAAAAAAM!* Some of the assassins got attacked and caught off guard but they managed to take less damage after backing away in time, nasty goblins.
