Larry watched from his glass orb as Angelina defeated all three giants. he wasn't particularly impressed as that wasn't what he was aiming for. he actually had nothing to do with those giants who had come of their own accord, he had cast another spell that was still taking effect but hadn't been noticed by any of the adventurers.
he was now watching Marv closely from the orb with his little finger entering one of his earholes and coming out with dust.
{maybe I should clean my ears...}
*******
Marv was praising Angelina on her work as he felt more proud of her. he should have taken care of the monsters on his own but wanted Angelina to take care of them herself. now that he was more sure of Angelina's strength he decided to head back to the others who seemed to avoid his gaze.
"what?"
Marv was wondering what the others were avoiding him for when Eve spoke up for everybody saying his magic was weird.
weird.
Marv wasn't sure to get offended or wholeheartedly agree with Eve. his powers were just too odd but he was still comfortable with them so no harm was done.
Marv then decided to use his [divine radar] skill to sense for any more monsters and he picked up a few red dots. not wanting to make the fight any more difficult Marv decided to stay out of this fight. he sat down with Brianna in his arms while having his back facing the others who headed forward.
the ground shook slightly as cracks appeared over a large area with green liquid flowing out. the monsters sprouted from the ground like plants as their rotten flesh dripped with green ooze and pungent smells.
six of them had appeared with several others still sprouting.
the group got ready with Eve standing behind everybody with her book in hand. Masha and Hannah stood at the frontline while Finn and Alyssa stood behind them. the paladins were covering the right and left with their shields.
loud grunts were heard before two giants stepped forward from where they stood with their fingers in the shape of claws.
Hannah then got into a low pose as she held two daggers in her hands. she levelled her breathing before she ran towards one of the giants. she entered a low run as she kept the daggers close to her chest. she covered the distance between her and the giant in about 10 quick steps and was now at the giant's feet. she then jumped high into the air as she performed a slight flip.
she had reached the height of where the giant's head should be and with a quick thrust, she forced a dagger into the stump. she narrowed her eyes as she then raised her right leg above her, stopping her flip, and with all her strength she brought her heel down and hit the dagger deeper into the stump.
she then landed back on the ground and jogged backwards quickly, narrowly missing the claws of the giant that aimed for her neck.
the giant seemed fine as it was about to continue its stomping but it suddenly stopped mid-motion. the rotten flesh muscles of the giant suddenly grew large in size as all the green liquid stopped flowing from it.
suddenly the dagger imploded and forced the giant to its knees before the rotten flesh of the giant also exploded and showered its comrade in green blood.
the second giant never stopped stomping as it increased its pace.
Finn then stepped forward to meet the giant.
he placed a hand on Masha's shoulder as he asked Masha to let him fight the giant. Masha stepped down and let Finn step forward as he created a golden longsword.
Finn walked towards the stomping giant as he swung his sword to his right with both hands on the handle. he smiled as he started jogging before quickly switching to a run. he smiled as he closed the distance between him and the giant to a dozen metres. his black pupils had now turned to golden flames. Finn then stopped his run as he came to a halt and lowered his upper body.
he then performed a frontflip with his sword close to his chest and his leg raised high. the giant was now close to Finn as it raised its claws.
Finn then kicked the chest of the giant with the force of his flip and then jumped backwards while the giant was still airborne a bit. then with a small cyclone, Finn twisted his waist and his golden sword blurred slightly before coming to a stop.
the giant landed on the ground with several wide cuts and holes. green blood sprayed everywhere as the giant stopped moving. Finn was smiling as he turned to look towards the right.
he swung his longsword over his left shoulder and ran towards a single giant that had just sprouted from the ground.
everybody watched as Finn ran for his next target. Eve had now completed her spell as she looked up from her book and pushed her glasses up a bit. she then performed a few hand gestures in the air. when she was done a large breeze appeared out of nowhere as everybody felt a calming sensation take over their bodies. they asked Eve what she had done and she responded that she had enhanced everybody's agility.
Masha and Hannah ran to the left as they saw two new giants uprooting trees to be used as projectiles. Alyssa formed a few icicles around her as she shot them towards a giant that was stomping towards a paladin.
with the giant slowed down a bit, the paladin raised his shield to his chest plate and clicked something. the shield then dropped to the ground with a chain attached to its centre. the paladin then pulled on the chain as he spun around, pulling his shield with the chain he swung his shield at the giant and with a strong airflow he cleaved the giant into two halves with green blood spraying onto the chain.
the groups battled for a long time as more giants sprouted from the ground with even more strength added on them. the only people who weren't helping were Marv, Brianna and Margaret who had been told to stay back to save her energy for the necromancer. she tried to argue but nobody paid her any more attention.
Marv watched as she sat not too far from him while playing with pebbles by her side. Brianna was playing rock paper scissors with Marv and had lost every single round. however, instead of feeling down, she seemed to admire Marv even more as she saw him as the strongest person ever.
Marv then decided to call Martha over. he had a smile on his face as he patted the ground beside him. Margaret was slightly disturbed but decided to head over as she held her staff close. she then shyly decided to sit next close to Marv's right when he had patted the ground on his left.
Marv wasn't really interested so he looked to the sky before he asked a question.
"ok...so who are you guys"
