Borogoblin moved forward as he imbued his battle-ax with aura slash.
Kiro has already familiarized himself with the sense of the aura user. Still, Kiro didn't back down, he enveloped his arrowhead with immense condensation.
"[Mana Blast!]" Kiro activated his skill, while a glaring blue's light darted toward Borogoblin.
Seeing the upcoming threat, Borogoblin's eyes became sharp. Before the impact, Borogoblin released his aura slash.
*π΅π΄π΄π΄ππΊ!*
An enormous explosion blasted through the surrounding forest. However, the two did not stop releasing their killing blow.
After the impact dissipated, Kiro senses cried in alarm, then he saw the colossal figure of Borogoblin. However, the difference this time his body was smeared with a sharp atmosphere.
"Kuuu~" Kiro exhaled as he tried to find an opening. But, before he could determine what tactic he should use. Borogoblin started his barrage.
With his battle-ax in hand, Borogoblin another skill, though this time, the pressure from the surrounding became heavy.
Then a huge suction force enveloping Borogoblin's ax, like a typhoon was being made at the center of his ax. "Master! Be careful, this Goblin Commander is much stronger than the other one." Fixie cautiously said to Kiro.
Hearing Fixie's warning, Kiro prepared himself from the frontal assault, summoning 30 plus arrows inside his spatial tool. Kiro used his art of archery.
However, before he could, Fixie's voice echoed. "Master! I advise you to save that move to the Goblin Shaman." She said. "Master shouldn't show his trump card to that opponent."
"What do you mean?" Kiro asked, but before he could add more. Borogoblin finished accumulating the energy in the surroundings as he was about to release his skill.
"Tsk!" Kiro clicked his tongue out of frustration, then he grabbed one of the two imbued runic arrows on his waist as he channeled his mana to it.
Glancing at the upcoming treat Kiro took his shooting stance as he aimed to the center of the storm.
*π πππ΄π΄π !*
A sharp gust of wind blew by as Kiro's arrow howled fiercely like a beast got out from its cages, darting toward Borogoblin's direction.
At the same time, Borogoblin hasted his activation and released it before the impact.
Then an enormous glaring blue luminous aura slashed horizontally toward Kiro's arrow.
*πΆππππππ~*
A deafening surge of waves rang throughout the plainlan forest.
Kiro watched their two-strike collide with each other, to his surprise. Borogoblin stopped the same runic arrow that took Gegoblin's life.
As the shockwave intensifies, a crispy crackling sound could be heard.
*πΆπ π΄π΄π΄πΆπΎ!*
Kiro's imbued arrow failed to pierce through Borogoblin's assault. Eventually, the runic arrow lost its vigor whereas it turned into dust.
Watching his runic arrow fail to reach its target, Kiro couldn't hide his astonishment. Though, before he could voice out his complaint, at the center of the storm. Borogoblin didn't escape unscratched.
Precisely at this moment, Borogoblin's figure was a mess, his body was filled with small and medium cuts as the purple blood dripped through his body, as for his heavy armor it has multiple cracks around it. However, when Kiro stared at the broken battle-ax, he assumed that Borogoblin survived the catastrophe with a resolve of betting his life on the line.
Seeing that his opponent is out of shape to continue fighting, Kiro searched at the surrounding forest. He was trying to find the Goblin Shaman.
However, a sharp pain rushed through his head. "Urgh..." Kiro was familiar with this feeling. He knew once he used a runic arrow, his mana would drop drastically.
"Master! Hurry up and finish off that Goblin Commander!" Fixie urged Kiro to slay Borogoblin, "Didn't Master forgot that once Master level up, Master would have more SP Points!"
Upon hearing Fixie's reasoning, Kiro suddenly has a flash of enlightenment.
"You mean once I killed this Goblin Commander, I would level up?" Kiro asked in surprise. "Yet, how come after I killed a Goblin Mage and a single Goblin Commander, why is that I didn't raise."
Kiro said as he tried to stabilize his chaotic mind.
"Because of Master's fast advancement, Fixie poured the portion of the Master's Exp to the System Upgrade." Fixie said, "You can only level up in system upgrade after accumulation a proper amount of Exp, so Fixie divided the portion of Master's Exp to thirty percent, while the remaining Exp would be transferred to the System Upgrade."
"... What? You can do that?" Kiro replied in bewilderment. "But why?" He said he couldn't understand why Fixie would do that on her own.
"I'm sorry Master, it was part of the hidden question from the System Upgrade, Fixie can't disclose it." Fixie said, "Anyway, it would be better if Master kills the Goblin Commander first."
Kiro felt odd from Fixie's sudden change of behavior. However, he knew that Fixie won't do something that would harm him, so Kiro could only nod in consent.
Summoning three arrows, Kiro simultaneously activated his skill. "[Arrow Shock!]"
After he released the arrows Kiro felt that his body was about to collapse. But Fixie's soothing voice awakened him. "Master! Why would you be so reckless and use three Arrow Shock?" Fixie couldn't help to voice out her complaint. The Goblin Commander was immobilized and barely standing. Yet Kiro still used three arrows.
"I have to use at least three arrows from that Commander, didn't you see how determined he is?" Kiro explained, "If I fail to kill him now, what if he uses his remaining life energy just like the White Wolf in the plains of wilderness."
Upon hearing the White wolf's name, Fixie realized why Kiro did an overkill finishing blow. "Okay, perhaps Master is right, but still please try to act as if you're fine. If not, the Goblin Shaman might take his opportunity to strike Master hard."
"Mm," Kiro nodded in the silence, as the immense explosion burst the Goblin Commander's body.
Staring at the bloody mess of Borogoblin, only then Kiro loosened his guard down.

While Kiro enjoyed the delightful feeling of replenishing his mana. Deep inside the forest, he was entirely unaware two figures in the darkness were watching him curiously.
