23 Journey to Travica Part I

Toyo ducked the first goblin as it swung it's warhammer towards his skull. As the warhammer flew just overhead, toyo launched his blade forward, his sword turning blue as he activated his Sword Skill, Sharp Nail. The move was simple, but a powerful and amplified stab all the same, and had been gifted to every player upon drawing their starting sword on the first day. Just as he threw his momentum into the move, A scimitar with a wicked curve came screaming forward, the slash aimed towards his chest.

Toyo attempted to abandon the Sword Skill in order to evade the strike, but realized too late that he could not. Once the activation began, the system all but took over, forcing him to see it through to the end. Tearing open a cut along his chest, the force of the slash knocked Toyo back several steps. It was all he could do to keep his feet on the ground. Taking a quick look at his health, Toyo saw it enter the yellow zone. From just one slash? He suddenly felt that same rising sense of panic that he had felt on the first day.

Cursing mentally, Toyo forced himself to focus. There were now two goblins just in front of him, both preparing to attack again. Raising his sword in order to launch a counteroffensive, Toyo was cut short by what felt like a shield being smashed into his back from behind. The weight of the blunt attack only drained a small amount of his HP, leaving him still in the yellow, but sent him sprawling forward involuntarily at the same time as the first goblin swung his warhammer and the second one lunged forward, the tip of his scimitar aimed again for Toyo's torn chest.

Time seemed to slow to a crawl as Toyo realized he was about to die. He could see the two goblins in front of him, their disgusting green faces covered in ulcers as they snarled menacingly at him. Saliva dripped down their oversized jaws. Their eyes, bloodshot and red, stood engulfed in an inferno of delighted fury as their combined attacks slowly closed the distance. One blow from that overpowered scimitar had been enough to bring him to yellow, and now he was about to take two direct hits simultaneously, one being from that same weapon. Though he was straining with all his might to try and halt his stumble forward into the attacks, he knew it wouldn't be enough. His strength parameters were too low. He and Jae together hadn't been strong enough to move that boulder earlier.

Still, knowing that this was the end wasn't enough to deter him from going down without a fight. He had charged in overconfident, but more than that, he had charged in to protect the three weak players that were all in the red. If he died now, without even taking down one of the goblins, those players would surely die. But if he could kill the one with the high damage scimitar, it might be enough to even the odds. Even in death, he might still be able to help them.

Ignoring the bodily impulse to protect himself, to raise his sword in a futile last block, Toyo focused his need, his desire to help, into the tip of his blade as he let it drop down in front of him. His fall forward drove all his weight behind that tip as it whistled forward, directly towards the scimitar wielding goblin's heart. With one final scream, Toyo took hold of the handle of his sword with both hands and extended his arms to complete the stab just before the enemy blows took him down.

It came as something of a shock then, when the shaft of Jae's spear came hurtling down in front of him, followed by a deafening thud. The shaft of the spear knocked down both the warhammer and the scimitar just as Toyo's blade reached it's mark, embedding itself two feet deep into the goblin's chest. The goblin looked surprised for the briefest of seconds and then disintegrated into a thousand digital shards.

Without stopping, Jae pressed his sudden attack, dancing around Toyo as he raised his spear, knocking aside the axe of a third goblin as it went for Israel's back. Ignoring the shock of still being alive, Toyo immediately focused on protecting Jae before he too got swarmed. One of the six goblins was now dead, with two others still reeling from Jae's perfectly timed blocks. One of these was in front of Toyo, the other behind him, facing Jae who was now at Toyo's back. That left three who up to this point had still been focused on battling the three players, but Toyo had no doubts that they would now be switching targets
