Chapter 9 - Empire In Ruins 2

[To think, these goblins possessed magic weapons of this caliber, this going Empire is getting more and more mysteries as we confront them]

Tina stated her tone seriously trying to contemplate the possible implications of the things they discovered.

"I haven't underestimated them, but it seems like my assumption in regards to them is still far from enough." (Kanzen)

[You can learn from this experience. Never underestimate an opponent, no matter how weak they are]

"Yeah, I will do that~ this might be the reason I am sent here. Not just to destroy the goblin empire, but also to fix my view early on before venturing to the wider world."

[That seems like it, stop the daily idling go and kick those goblin asses]

"No need to remind me, I am just about to do that."

Renewing his view for the better, Kanzen's focus returned to his second body, that's currently being surrounded and attacked on all sides with no room to spare.

He continued on deflecting an arrow after an arrow in a leisurely phase at the same time cautiously spreading his senses using his domain intent to the max trying to sense any dangerous factors that might be of a threat to him.

Then just as he expected, hundreds of goblins that gave off a dangerous vibe entered his domain.

"They're here!"

[Those must be the rumored Goblin Knights all in level 3 to 4 but possessed the power and prowess comparable to that of level 4 and 5.

They possessed high resistance against magical attacks so confronting them using large-scale magic is but a hard endeavor.

Be careful good luck]

"Thank u for the info Tina and that encouragement is just what I need."

He stored the Phoenix Wrath back to his inventory before pulling out a sword and a staff.

The sword radiated a bloody feeling that could make any nearby person have goosebumps and cold feet as a strong bloodlust emanated from the weapon.

The staff is a majestic emerald jade color scepter that releases a strong magical power.

The sword is the [Blossoming Blood Sakura] that now reached Rank: [ S ] after slaughtering and absorbing the blood of hundreds of thousands of goblins and beasts.

The scepter is called [Nature Will's] another Rank: [ S ] weapon, this one was bought for 1.8M credits in the infinite shop.

Nature Will's [Staff]

NOTE: A scepter created from the branch of the wisdom tree and world tree it is said that the scepter's purpose is to protect nature.

The scepter enhances the user's magical power and spiritual power.

ITEM SKILL:

[Natures Wrath]

- Summons all the natures' resentment bringing forth the manifestation of natures disaster.

The goblin knights didn't waste time as all of them rushed in a formation diving straight at the blazing ruins, ignoring the fire that tried to encroach them.

They pulled out their blades, harnessing a hazy green energy before launching themselves to Kanzen.

In response to their bravery Kanzen pointed the [Nature Will's] at them using a restrictive spell called <> knowing beforehand how ineffective it was against someone that possessed a high magic resistance.

The spell was successful, but it only affected the goblin knights for a few milliseconds.

However, these few milliseconds were what he was aiming for.

Storing back the <> back inside his personal inventory, he swings the already unsheathed [Blooming Blood Sakura] teleporting himself in the center of the Goblin Knights.

Still in a millisecond effect of the <> the goblin knights nearest to Kanzen could only watch as his blade slices through their tick armor, strong body and hard bones like a piece of tofu without much resistance.

The instant the fight began 12 goblin knights ranging from level 3 to 4 were down instantly.

This all happened in less than a second.

Successfully resisting the <> one of the commanding officers of the goblin knights screamed.

"You damn monster, I will kill you, I will eat your flesh and drink your blood." (Goblin Knight)

"Before that happens you still need to defeat me, so stop talking nonsense more action please~" (Kanzen2.0)

He replied in a nonchalantly manner before aiming his blade to the goblin knight that just talked.

His blade was about to reach the talkative goblin knight when an arrow traveling 1000mph (ca. 1,609 km/h) suddenly appeared aiming for his head.

Unable to respond to the sudden attack Kanzen was forced to use one of his soul bound items skill [Intangible] putting him in a state of nothingness for 10 seconds where any in this time any physical and magical attacks are ineffective against him.

Being put in the state of nothingness Kanzen's agility and dexterity boosted the additional effects when activating the [Intangible] item skill.

Using this sudden boost Kanzen continues his attack, this time successfully reaching the talkative goblin knight cutting the guy's head off his body.

The powerful archer that almost got him 🏹 in the distance had a lock of incredulity in his face, unable to believe what he had just witnessed.

"What happened?" (Goblin Queen)

"My arrow just passed by the monster's body without dealing any damage." (Archer)

"How can that be!" (Goblin Queen)

Hearing her subordinates explain what had happened, the Goblin Queen's expression stiffened.

She couldn't fathom what was the humanoid monster attacking their empire or why their empire was the one being continuously harassed by this humanoid monster.

Based on the information she had gathered from the witnesses; those that confronted and survived the unknown monster attacks.

This monster is an extremely beautiful and handsome individual that resembles a human but at the same time somewhat different something they themselves couldn't describe.

It said that the monster gave off a strong and suppressive aura resembling that of an overbearing predator.

At first, she questioned such nonsensical descriptions but the moment she laid her eyes on the said unknown monster's figure she instantly confirmed the validity of the statements.

The said monster is just as beautiful and handsome as they say, no it's something more than that. Moreover, she herself is a strong being yet could clearly feel the suppressive and dominating aura emanating from the monster, even though she could tell that she's stronger. Surprisingly enough her instincts were screaming for her to escape.

She never once encountered such a thing, for a clearly weaker being to make her instincts scream like crazy it only meant that the being invading her empire is stronger than what he displays.

This is the only reason she could come up when basing the situation from a logical standpoint.

The effect of the <> finally vanished, the stunned Goblin Knights quickly tried to retaliate against the hateful bastard.

But the moment they did try to do so, the hateful bastard was nowhere in sight. Looking around them, the Goblin Knights determined that the monster wasn't in their detection range anymore.

Just as the captain was about to order new commands, a loud scream echoed amidst the chaotic smock filled battlefield. The scream came from their east where they emerged from before.

Quickly reacting to the scream, the captain immediately determined what the hateful monster's aim was. Get back support and protect the archers, the monster is hunting them.

Kanzen in a state of thought acceleration noticed that the effects of <> are diminishing quickly locked onto his next targets, leaving behind the Goblin Knights as he teleported behind them where they came from.

The place where the annoying archers who kept sending volleys of arrows were at.
