Chapter 86 Out Of His Shell

The Goblin's dead expression looking lifeless at the first general.

Not making any gestures, five flame energy in the shape of balls appeared in the Goblin's sides.

He raised one hand up and pointed it at the first general, the fire balls following his hand gestures began raining itself on the first general.

The first general stood his grounds, thrusted his hands laced with thunderclaps sparkling every seconds forward and with brute strength, started punching down the fire balls raining on him.

making contact with the first general's hand, the fire balls exploded, doing no damage to the first general.

"come on Goblin, this isn't all you have is it" (first general).

The Goblin with a still stern face ignored the taunting of the first general and continues his attack on him.

The Goblin erected out vines from his sides and coated them in his flames,

Using the vines coated in fire as whip, the Goblin used it to attack the first general.

The Goblin increased his range of attacks further by producing the same vines laced with fire on the ground situated at the back of the first general.

"haha, you plan on trapping me in a single spot?".

The first Goblin general stomped his legs on the floor, and static lightning emitted out of his body, blowing away all things within range, including the Goblin and the vines coated with fire.

"too bad that isn't going to work on me".

So far, long distance attacks have proven useless against the first general, and the Goblin knew that, or rather, Oracle knew it would get nowhere going with long distance, so it decided to change to a close combat attack.

With hands coated in fire from the palm down to the elbow, the Goblin launched at the first general.

The two Goblins, one with hands coated in fire and the other with his body coated in thunderclaps, had a collision of fist.

The first Goblin general, followed up with a kick to the sides, to which the Goblin responded to by blocking it with his hand.

Despite the weight difference between them, the Goblin wasn't at all pushed back as he continues exchanging blows with the first general.

The Goblin swings his fist at the first general's face who dodged it, the first general did not fall for the rist6 distraction as he looks to his below and saw the vine almost getting to him.

The first general manifested out his thunder from his finger and used it to blow up the vine coming from below.

The Goblin took advantage of the moment and struck out his leg, but the first general was fast enough to deal with the vine and still have time to respond to the kick from the Goblin.

The first general caught the Goblin's leg that headed his way, and with it, he slammed the Goblin down.

"you did good for a beginner, but you still have much more to learn before you try to win against me",

"get more combat experience, maybe then we can have a fair Duel".

the first general said, after successfully pinning down the Goblin with his leg stuck in his hand.

The Goblin struggled to let himself free from the grasp of the first general,

He sprouted out thorns from his leg that was held captive by the first general, the thorns, lengthened from out of the leg and stabbed through the first general's hand.

"what the?...."

The first general's reaction to the thorns that had sprouted through his hand was mild as he made a sound no different from when one gets poked with a needle.

The first general not minding the squabbling of the Goblin, dangled him in his hand as he walked to where the other general's were at.

"that sure took you long enough first general" (second general).

"he is surprisingly more stubborn than he seems" (first general).

the first general shifted his body coated in thunderclaps back to his normal form.

"at least it's over with, now we can finally go back to our king" (third general).

The three generals got up, and got ready to go back to the lower floor they came from, with the Goblin with them.

***Current

[master, I do not suggest going out there to fight].

[master can leave this to me to handle].

'i trust you, truly I do, but there are some fights that needs fighting by oneself',

'if I leave it to you, I will never grow out of my shell and will only keep on depending on you forever',

'I don't want that at all, I have my thought process and methods, resigning myself to fear and trauma is how far I want to stoop, and any further than that, I don't want to go there'.

'the Goblin generals are after me, this is my fight, and I want to fight it my way'.

[but master, what if you break down like you did earlier].

'i am not going to, and if I ever do, I have you to rely on don't I?.....'

'i know you will always have my back, so I have got nothing to worry about'.

[......]

[Oracle will proceed as the master commands].

'before you do, brief me on the current situation. I don't want to go out there with no formal knowledge of what it is like'.

'the better knowledgeable informed I am, the more efficient I can be in working my way out of it'.

[the four Goblin generals openly threatened master with bloodlust, to which I warned them that any further ill will against you will result in their termination].

[they refused to abide by my warning, and so a fight broke out].

[I had a brawl with the four Generals, which ended in i having to face off with only the first general].

'and the outcome'.

[the situation is dire at the moment now master, but there is no need for master to fear, for I am already opting for ways to get master out of it].

'get me out of it?....., exactly how dire of a situation are we talking about here....'
