Chapter 29: Slice

Small and green in colour just like the books say, their ears pointed like that of an elf, their teeth looking quite sharp and their little legs quite quick,"Goblins are quite the creatures" Blake muttered as he observed the dozens of goblins that had popped out from among the trees and began attacking them.

With his hands crossed over his chest, Blake stood with a powerful pose as he watched the rest of the team with the exception of Yula and Noel engage the goblins in a battle of attrition.

Holding a dagger in each hand, Roy cooperated with Palde who had a katana to kill the goblins at the front, the two of them fighting back to back, though with the little he knew, Blake could still flaws in their teamwork it was the best of the group and quite commendable, the pair's ability to perform switches on their shirt enemies at the right intervals, pleased Blake and like he were some supervisor, he would nod from time to time as he stared in their direction.

Looking away from the rangers, Blake turned to the next most eye-catching battle and of course, it was that of Reins.

Though the man had been a liability back at the village and someone whom he had considered killing, out here on the battlefield, Blake nodded his head at the carnage which the man could unleash, his strength being quite eye-raising.

"For all his strength, all I needed to defeat him was my fear aura," Blake thought with a shake of his head, looking to Jeric and Kate.

With a heavy blade in his hand, each of Jeric's swings saw scores of goblins be killed, the man fighting with extreme discipline, attacking and defending at the right time.

Unfortunately, due to his heavy blade, Jeric was slow at specific times and if it weren't for Kate who stood to the side and shot out green lights that exploded on impact at the goblins, he would have been full of scratches and cuts at the moment

Though also facing her own dozens of goblins, Kate kept an eye on all fighters in the battle field rendering help wherever it was needed and sending Blake a glare that screamed.

"What are you doing just standing there"

At some point during the battle, everyone had thrown Blake a questioning glance, but he had remained impervious to it, just silently observing the battlefield.

"Okay, so If fucking the first half of mothers in that town could get me 32000SP then fucking then when I get back and fuck the rest, I should at least get 30000SP, then I shouldn't also forget the maidens of the town.

All I have to do is make up some nonsense about a religious blessing for the girls so that they will have blessed children and something like that.

Thinking about the several women in the town, thoughts on how to make the place a farm of his began spawning in his head.

Without hesitations, Blake had just begun considering the option of killing all the men in the town when a loud roar suddenly echoed out and everyone's attention including Blake's was pulled to the right.

At this point, the number of goblins who were charging the group had drastically dropped and as the roar sounded out, the few remaining goblin's attention was also pulled and then instantly like they had been given some secret message, they all turned around and began running back into the trees disappearing out of sight within seconds.

"Gather around" Kate immediately called out, the group except Blake responding to her order, but this time nobody paid any attention to Blake.

Instead of being angry or pissed at him for doing things his own way, they were all glad that he was not with them as it meant that he could go ahead and face whatever monster was coming at them.

"What was that roar" Yula who was at the centre of the circle the group had made asked looking to the left and right vigilantly.

"No one knows Yula and instead of standing there and getting baptized in your fear begin healing and rejuvenating your teammates so they have a better chance of protecting you" Blake who had been silent all these while said, his words stunning everyone.

With haste, Yula shook her head and lifting the staff she carried in her hand she placed it on Rein who had the most cuts amongst everyone and began healing him, the head of the staff glowing green and a look of concentration appearing on her face.

For several seconds, all was silent after the first roar and then several seconds later the sound of heavy footsteps rapidly slamming on the ground and approaching their position began ringing out.

"Everyone get ready to attack" Kate screamed as there was a burst of mana all around her, a red ball slowly beginning to form above her staff.

Turning around, Blake faced the incoming sound his eyes narrowing as he made a couple of contemplations and then when at last the dreaded moment arrived, an over 9-foot-tall goblin holding a giant club running out from amongst the trees, Blake made his decision.

"5000Sp to strength, 7000SP to agility, 5000SP to mana"

[Strength: 148(78) / Agility: 118 / Stamina: 20 / Vitality: 10 / Intelligence: 60/ Mana: 135(65) / Charisma: 19 / Will(mysterious): 700]

Immediately Blake made this upgrade he felt a few cracks go through his body and a sort of electric jolt, Blake watched as his perception got clearer, the goblin becoming a tad bit slower.

Watching the goblin raise its huge club in the air and then swing it down at the group who were clustered together hoping on the barrier that Kate was yet to erect, Blake's feet quickly went into motion.

In a few steps, he left from the group's side and stood at their front, then bending his ankles and moving his left leg back, Blake's hands got into a position that made it look like he wanted to unsheathe a sword from his waist and then he performed one of his superior skills

[Quick draw]

In a flash, Blake's sword appeared and was drawn from the nonexistent sheathe, the goblins forearm which had been swinging down leaving it's body the next second and while still holding over the club went flying over the group, and just as the goblin began looking at it stump trying to understand what just happened it felt a sudden heat,

[Flaming slash]

Taking two breaths, Blake had his sword covered in hot red flames and then he ran towards his goblin and jumped.

Of course, seeing Blake jump towards it with a dangerous-looking weapon, the goblin didn't just stay idle.

The goblin roared and then swatted its hand at him, wanting to slap him away, but unfortunately for it, this attack ended up with it losing another arm and then its head, its headless body falling to its knees seconds later and eventually collapsing.

"They should have added slice to the name of this technique, its edge is just scary," Blake thought as he stood on the other side of the dead goblin, resting his sword on his shoulder and turning around but then he got a system message.
