Jarheid go to where the warriors were defending the defense line, even though the difference in individual strength and group strength was on their side, the numbers were not like that, the goblins completely ignored the deaths that the attack originated and thanks to that they had managed to open a gap in the flanks of the defense.
even so, the arrows of Lydia and Agatrhia filled this void but with that, they stopped suppressing the Kobolds that ceaselessly shot their arrows.
Jarhaid seeing this taking his shield went to the center of the ranks and with a loud shout, he ordered the men.
'' open ranks! inverted arrow formation! ''
the warriors present without hesitation backed down several steps in the center and those on the sides advanced, thereby losing the circular and defensive formation, but instead a gap had opened in the center of the formation to which the Goblins did not hesitate to attack by being an obvious weak point.
Agatrhia seeing this snorted with some annoyance to his nephew.
"Tsk, Jarheid you want to keep all the glory for you, isn't it?"
Jarheid accommodating his helmet and trying to go unnoticed by the goblins he replied.
'' There is no glory in cutting these disgusting creatures, I will quickly finish this as my father ordered me, aunt you should stop playing and take care of the Kobolds ''
Jarheid gave his aunt a serious look, but she didn't seem to take him too seriously and answered quickly.
'' I wanted your sister to practice a little with living goals since she is still a minor and can not go out often what better situation for it? ''
Jarheid said no more, Agatrhia listened to him and began shooting at the Kobolds that were among the forest, the atmosphere of Agatrhia changed, it seemed that a mysterious mantle surrounded him, while in the eyes of a normal person would not be noticeable in the eyes of a Silver Practitioner you could see a silver glow in Agatrhia's fingers that permeated the arrow in his hand.
[Fluid Arrow]
when the arrow of the bow shot out, is instead of stopping to flex in the air, the arrow began to flex even more affecting its trajectory and as if it was a fish in the water this way it moved in the air, in less than a tenth of a second the arrow had already traveled the 30 to 40 meters that separated them from the Kobolds.
The Kobolds did not even notice when the arrow was twisted and pinned to the tree one of their companions that were hiding among the branches, the most surprising of all was that this Kobold was not in the visual range of Agatrhia.
Meanwhile, the Goblins, trusting to see the weakness of the formation, almost 60 of them had launched forward trying to break the formation and open unique combat with each of the warriors so that their numbers could exceed the individual power of the warrior
but after losing almost 20 goblins and reaching the front of the opening, the blade of a sword received the first Goblin right in the neck, before it could even react its head was flying through the air.
the Goblin that came after this attempt to stop, but the impulse of the goblins behind him made him continue and the continuation of the blade that had not stopped with his partner's neck followed him in a daunting way, the blade of the sword I cut him in the temple to the side of his eyes, it was buried at least 7 cm reaching his brain and causing the goblin to die instantly.
Behind this there were even more Goblins that could not process what had happened, but before they thought of anything a round shield received them and stopped the advance of the Goblins.
Jarheid looked coldly at the goblins who had fallen under his blade, even if they had armor, in front of a Silver Practitioner was almost useless, he had not even had to imbue Vindictus in his weapon to defeat these normal Goblins.
'' Kill them fast and clean! ''
Jarheid gave the order and the men erected their shields and attacked the Goblins from the back in a fast and precise movement so that they did not give the Goblins a chance to send more reinforcements.
To the surprise of the Goblins, the Kobolds did not attack for a couple of seconds, which resulted in a fatal tragedy for them.
the Kobolds that were supposed to cover those who changed positions for a new arrow attack were strangely dead from several angles that had no enemies.
in a few seconds as if it were a piece of machinery, the warriors had stabbed almost half of the Goblins, the silver edge on Jarheid's sword was dyed in the green blood of the Goblins, in his account there were more than 15 of them.
...
while on the other side Arnar was bathed in blood with a fierce smile and at his feet there were at least 11 green bodies that among the snow seemed to dirty the peace and purity of the earth.
'' Weak, is that all you have? haha, I could only take care of you! You don't even have Silver ranks among you! How am I supposed to be entertained ?! ''
Arnar narrowed an eye where he had received a wound and his red blood nuanced the green blood of the goblins in his body.
Without waiting for the response of the goblins who did not speak the Nors language, Arnar brandished his ax only that unlike the goblins with which Jarheid fought, these alms had enough reaction time to protect themselves, the Goblin that was taller than an average goblin raised a heavy iron shield and stopped the blow of the ax of Arnar, although not without flying 2 meters.
Arnar did not chase him because this goblin had another 2 on each side that would attack Arnar if he chased the fallen goblin.
'' tsk, to be Bronze ranks they seem well organized, even if they are sub-species that it is to envy the difference in power between ranks ''
Arnar said with resentment as he took over a Goblin that slipped behind him in a treacherous attack, when the goblin pounced with a spear Arnar using his shield received it and putting great momentum on his ax he let it fall into a downward blow.
'' AAAHggi ''
The Goblin only managed to scream in despair before his body was split in 2.
'' tsk, that's 12, hehe you got the wrong enemy! ''
the Goblins when seeing one more of them being split in 2, began to tremble, in addition to the other side the situation was not better, the 4 warriors who fought against the 20 Goblins, although they were not Silver Practitioners, they were Bronze Veterans! the group training between them was precise enough to be able to beat the goblins who only had 15 Black Iron Ranks and 5 Bronze Ranks.
the Goblins began to show signs of withdrawal after 2 minutes that the battle had warmed up, even though they had tried to attack overwhelmingly, they had not obtained results, if this had been another group of humans the result would have been different, but they try to fight against the most powerful fighters of the Gode Drakkison, this had cost them the life and future of their communal groups.
The kobolds being the ones who were furthest from the battlefield and seeing how the Goblins were killed unilaterally also began to show fear and a sign of retreat, about 80 meters from the camp a Kobold almost 2 meters high frowns while looking at a normal kobold with a corpse of his soldiers in his hands.
the Kobold Chief approached the corpse and looked at the arrow that he had embedded in his chest, with some doubt the Kobold turned him around but seeing the angle that the arrow had come out from behind he was surprised and shot the body of this, even with reinforced leather armor, it had been crossed and the arrow curved irrationally.
'' GUA! GUA GUA! ''
With a bark, a little desperate he gave his orders, the ears and nose of the Kobolds were particularly developed by what the men in the front listened to their leader and the orders of this.
Even though humans couldn't understand the barking, it was easy to hear the despair in it.
at the moment the Kobolds stopped firing their arrows and withdrew, if in the beginning they had attended more than 90 Kobolds now only retired thing of 35, this was a hard blow to the community of the Kobolds, but this was better than falling into battle without even killing a single human.
Jarheid seeing this sigh in relief, even though these enemies were not a problem, they did not know the magnitude of the ambush, although they were superior in power, the force of the numbers could create enough pressure to slowly demolish them.
''father?''
Jarheid turned to see behind him where his father was supposed to be, but he could not see him, just when he was going to call him he heard the shout of one of the horses.
''shit! the horses! damn Kobolds ... those are gnolls? even they attack us!? ''
a group of about 10 Black Iron Rank Gnolls had slipped away and laughed nervously as they looked at Jarheid looking at them with a murderous look.
these had killed at least 12 horses and released the others, the horses had become frightened and ran towards the road in the direction of Drakki city.
'' I'm in charge of gathering the horses, you take care of those dogs, wow, why is it that the most unfortunate things happen today? ''
Agatrhia said as she whipped her horse to reach them before they moved further away, although there could be an ambush it was better than it was her than the other soldiers who would not bear the power of numerous enemies for a long time, she being a Pseudo-Silver practitioner was Easy to escape from a bad situation.
Jarheid with cold blood moved towards the Gnolls who tried to escape to the lush trees in the forest, but before they turned away when they turned their backs on Jarheid, he had already reached them, with a swift and phantasmagoric sword movement that seemed to divide in several blades he attacked the Gnolls.
[Steel Finger Blade]
with a single movement of his sword, he killed 4 of them at the same time, using his Vindictus on his sword he had conferred even greater power to his cut and speed.
...
Arnar had knocked down 17 of the 20 Goblins who had attacked him, they had gone to meet the others in the second group who had already fallen 7 of them and were in a stalemate with the 4 right-handed warriors.
With grunts and guttural sounds the goblins talked to each other, they were sounds that Arnar couldn't understand but he didn't care and kept attacking.
'' I told you that humans are not trustworthy! damn it! We mobilized all our men in the forest just for the promise he made to you! ''
a goblin that was bleeding profusely said with repulsion towards another that was trembling with fear behind the shields that received Arnar's axes.
this Goblin trembled as he looked at his hands and did not feel his legs on the cold floor covered with snow and green blood of his companions.
"That guy said he would give us weapons and tools if we killed this group, even ... he promised us women and wine!"
the Goblin who was bleeding only managed to say before throwing his weapon and shield.
''This group!? They are a human army! idiot that guy cheated on you! Did you say his name was Snoith? I'll make sure to eat his blood and meat !! since it was your fault then you will cover my rear! ''
the bleeding Goblin said as he smiled terribly.
''what? will you escape damn ?! ''
nobody answered him because the other goblin had already run away when he wanted to attack him, from behind a huge ax penetrated the shields that protected the group and a euphoric voice by the bloodbath received them.
`` HAHA, you bastards who growl so much? I'll take care that you stop making those noises in a moment! ''
Arnar without paying attention to the disputes between the goblins attacked using his Vindictus and split several shields which the goblins not having Silver Ranks in their ranks could not defend themselves effectively.
in a matter of seconds with a fleeing Goblin followed a second and then a third, the poor defenses of the goblins fell and turning their backs on Arnar, their slaughter was more than guaranteed.
The few goblins that were attacking the front end in the forest when they saw their leaders be defeated began to flee in terror and with that, the conflict seemed to come to an end.
Drekkison family warriors did not lower their guard and would soon begin to eliminate the dying goblins, but their plans were interrupted by a loud shout from a Goblin and a stifled roar.
'' KUAAAAGaa! ''
When Jarheid heard this he put on a serious face and when he saw that his father had not yet appeared, he took command of the troops, the important thing was to be able to respond to whatever danger was coming.
'' regroup and take combat positions! Arnar will lead the troops! Lydia stand behind me ''
Lidya instead of looking scared just snorted with some annoyance and got off her horse, without paying attention to her brother, she got close to the tent and took care of her horse to relax him
in a few seconds, the men had gathered in front of the tents, luckily Agatrhia had gone in search of the horses but it would be impossible to defend them from some beast of great power.
the tension of the men increased with the smell of blood and fresh viscera, besides that the deaf roars were getting closer and more pronounced.
Jarheid could feel his heartbeat, these were rhythmic and gentle, even in the face of the danger of a demonic beast he did not flinch inside.
the tension did not last long when seeing the demonic beast that came out of the forest, what they did not expect was that this was a creature of a somewhat peculiar aspect, it was plump and long, at first glance it could be said that it was a seal mottled, only that ... it is at least 4 meters high and more than 9 meters long, its fins seemed to have ossified formations and the red eyes of this were a sign of the cruelty of this creature!
'' PRUAAA ''
Seeing the humans who were aiming at him with his spears, this growl with force and resonance, making the air whine and impacting the body of those present, if a normal human had been close, he would probably have stunned and immobilized him at least.
Jarheid seeing the head of this demonic Beast murmured.
'' Silver Demonic Beast ... ''
for a moment he was petrified because the difference in power between the Silver ranks of humans, Sub-species and demonic Beasts was great, while the humans had a more balanced development Sub-species generally had a more specified development and the Demon Beasts they were even worse because their instincts were further reinforced and with it their natural advantages.
