Chapter 24 Green Pale And Fat Creature

Arondite swung. A thin white smoke followed its every move. The sword blade sliced ??through the large pale green creature's flesh easily as if without effort.

Aerchon raised Arrondite to block the swing of the spiked club, then he made a downward evasive motion with his agile body and thrust his sword into the creature's chin until it pierced its head above.

Aerchon didn't stop. Instead, he went straight to the other Ogre who was closest. Swing his Arrondite until it broke the Ogre's spear then stretch out one of his arms. A burst of frozen smoke shot out from Aerchon's palm towards the Ogre, causing him to freeze instantly.

Then Aerchon swings his sword again to crush the frozen Ogre into small pieces.

"BROTHER!"

The sound of Aurdis screaming made Aerchon turn his head in panic. Aerchon saw Aurdis and Delirien already surrounded by several Ogres. Aerchon ground his teeth and then immediately rushed towards them.

But suddenly there was a chain that tied his body. Aerchon felt his body go limp and immediately fell to the ground. His sword falls from his hand.

The chain emitted a thin dark green smoke. Aerchon immediately knew that the chain was no ordinary chain. There was a Magic Ogre that strengthened it.

Aerchon looked up at Aurdis and Delirien. They both looked scared. Delirien stood in front of Aurdis holding a dagger, trying to protect her. But Aerchon knew that Delirien wouldn't be able to fight. He could only stare in despair at his sister who seemed to be afflicted with fear.

Suddenly a large ax flew and pierced the head of the Ogre in front of Delirien. Aerchon turned and saw Erend running towards them.

'He? How...?' Aerchon was so confused about how that human could be here.

Erend ran, jumped, then threw his fist at the Ogre closest to him. The ogre threw backward.

Erend activated his skill.

[ Skill activated: Dragon Claw (Lv.1) ]

His hands formed claws then he was swinging his claws towards the Ogre he just hit.

'CRAAT!'

"GUUAGHH!"

The ogre made an ugly sound as its chest was clawed at by Erend. But Erend didn't stop with just one scratch. He started clawing so many times that the Ogre was torn apart and fell to the ground with his organs exposed.

The remaining Ogres around were unable to move while staring at Erend. Their eyes, which were green and large like the seeds of rotten fruit, widened in terror.

Erend then ran towards Aurdis and Delirien. The Ogre that surrounded the two of them seemed hesitant to attack. But Erend didn't hesitate in the slightest.

He still activated [Dragon Claw] and he charged toward them. The Ogres didn't know what else they could do but attack as well. So they did.

A total of five Ogres were charging towards Erend. While the other three Ogres were watching Aerchon.

Erend realized his disadvantage. It's not like before when he's just fighting according to his bloodlust. This time he could think a little calmly.

Seeing the Ogres who had been provoked to attack him and no longer surrounded Aurdis and Delirien, Erend ran towards Aerchon. There were only three Ogres there, far fewer in number than the ones chasing him.

[ Skill activated: Dragon Scale (Lv.1) ]

[ Skill activated: Fire Breath (Lv.1) ]

Erend opened his mouth but he didn't intend to spit fire, but instead just let out a fireball. Turns out, he can do it by just willing it. Erend just realized that.

A fireball coming out of Erend's mouth hit one of the Ogres until it has thrown backward and caught fire.

Another Ogre threw a spear with a tip that was covered in a thick green liquid. But the spear just bounced off Erend's skin which was covered in reddish-black scales.

Erend continued to run towards them. When he reached the right distance, Erend jumped and landed on top of one of the Ogres while thrusting his claws into the Ogre's neck.

But the Ogre wasn't dead yet. Erend's position was now right in front of Aerchon. With a swift motion, Erend swiped his claws at the chain that bound Aerchon.

The chain was instantly broken by Erend's claws.

"GET UP!" Erend exclaimed to Aerchon.

The expression on Aerchon's face showed no gratitude. Instead, he seemed to hate the situation where he had been saved by humans.

But Aerchon left that for later and got up right away. He grabbed back the Arrondite sword that had fallen on the ground. Aerchon started fighting again.

Erend started beating the Ogre below him. But Erend forgot that there was still one Ogre that could still move freely.

The ogre picked up another chain which emitted dark green smoke. Then he threw it to bind Erend.

"Oh, shit!" Erend realized his folly.

He had just freed Aerchon from the same chain. But now he too was entangled in those chains.

The Ogre that bound Erend laughed in such an ugly voice until its messy rows of teeth were visible.

Erend grinds his teeth. Then try breaking the chain with his strength.

"Ngghhhhggaaa...."

Moments later the chain shattered into shards of scattered iron rings. The Ogre immediately lost its smile. Especially when he saw Erend rise to his feet and stare at him.

"You must think you've won," Erend said with a savage grin. He ran towards the Ogre while clutching several iron rings that had been part of the chain.

Erend punched the Ogre until he fell. Erend jumped on top of him and then hit him a few more times.

He stuffed the part of the chains into the Ogre's mouth until it was full then hit him again a few times.

A sickening gurgling sound escaped the Ogre's mouth. But the sound didn't last long because the Ogre was already dead.

Having finished with the Ogre, Erend turned to Aerchon. But he seemed to be able to handle himself.

Aerchon fought with his sword which emitted a thin white smoke. Erend saw Aerchon like a dancer with the gruesome choreography of the pale green creature's blood around him.

Aerchon's sword technique was great. Especially with that strange sword. But there was no point in admiring Aerchon's prowess now. Erend immediately ran and fight the remaining Ogre.
