Chapter 24 - Ch 24: Show power for obedience

Xalroz waited afterward to let his words sink into those hiding. Took just about a minute till two figures revealed themselves to be 9 ft tall blue-skinned male Trolls with those long tusks standing out from under the side of their face.

The two trolls kept a balanced distance from him and Sannoth held their weapons. One has a large battle ax the other a large hammer ready if necessary for a fight in breaking out.

"Interesting to be meeting trolls so soon, I was hoping to meet your creatures in your home," Xalroz says.

"What business does a dark elf like you and a human female have on our land." one of the trolls speaks as he points out Sannoth taking the form of a human again.

"Hold your tongue, troll your speaking to…"

"Calm down Sannoth these trolls aren't that smart to tell the difference between elves' skin color and besides they have no right to know who I'm just yet."

"Now it should be you to hold your tongue speaking to us like this as if to ask for death by our hands." the other troll spoke in anger.

Xalroz let out a soft laugh at the moment. "Honestly your threat means nothing to me, I have come to not care about such things, anyway I would like it if you two would be kind enough to lead us to your village."

This time both the trolls were the ones laughing Sannoth find it to be disrespectful to them doing that and would love nothing to make the trolls pay. Yet looking at Xalroz he on the other hand was just smiling calmly, not bothered by it.

"Look at this dark elf thinking he has the right to order us around. Maybe we should show him what happens when someone tries that." This troll says looking right at the other next to him.

"Agree, friend, maybe we shall." The others seem to be on board with it. "How unfortunate it looks to me I have to show my power to gain obedience."

Xalroz doesn't mind doing what is needed at this point. "Sannoth stand where you are, I will take this."

"As you order my lord." Sannoth listens with a smile on her face knowing well what is going to be done to these trolls.

"Well, this dark elf is taking us on. Question: Which of us is going to teach him a lesson?"

"Let it be fun to have my hammer get some nice elf blood on it."

"Very well you can have at it then." The first troll said as the second wasted no time to make his move taking steps forward.

"It's going to be fun killing a troll again after the last time." Xalroz takes his steps forward as well meeting the troll halfway where the creature begins to have its hammer rise.

It goes back as the two hands holding onto the weapon bring it forward down to crush the elf in front of the troll.

This was an easy attack move to dodge out of sight by just taking a step at one side. Right on time as well where the head of the hammer touches the ground cracking it at the same time.

Xalroz takes the chance at striking back when the troll face is at a good reachable level. He sends a fist flying over that comes to hit hard at the large troll's face and the creature's whole body moves to the right side.

The troll takes a moment inspecting his face being surprised at how strong that punch he took just now. "How can such an elf be strong in strength?"

"You should stay focused on the fight we have going on here," Xalroz said right as he went charging at the troll.

"No games elf, I'm going to crush you." The troll swings his hammer right at the time the elf was getting close for such a ranged attack.

Xalroz had his head go down just as the head of this hammer was coming for him. Once safe he does a quick under kick sweeping the legs of this big troll to fall on his back so hard that the sound of his body hitting the ground is heard.

"Come on, I thought you could entertain me and look like you troll still are so easy to beat in a fight." Xalroz mocks the troll and adds fire to it, angry as he watches this creature work to get back up.

Yet the troll wasn't going to be allowed that right as a kneen came to greet the face making him fall right back to the ground.

At that moment Xalroz felt the strong force of a kick hit from behind. His whole body was sent flying to meet with a tree breaking through it and rolling around on the ground till stopping.

"What are you doing!." The troll on the ground said.

"Saving you from further embarrassment the dark elf was giving you. I couldn't stand it any longer as I will take it from here on out."

"You dare to attack my lord, I shall skin you alive for that." Sannoth rage was building up when she was about to attack the troll.

"Sannoth I told you to stay as you are, don't start now to disobey my order," Xalroz tells her as he was walking back showing not much bother by the kick.

"Lord are you alright," Sannoth asked as she was coming to check on his body. "Yes, I'm fine that kick just happened only when my guard was done."

The troll with the battle ax attacked again walking and reaching the two with not that many steps. Swing down the ax with one hand to cut Xalroz and Sannoth in half, but what this troll didn't believe to happen was when the elf caught the battle ax easily with one hand.

"What!? How can you do this?" The troll asked while at the same time putting all his strength into pushing the weapon down as much as possible, but he was struggling to do so.

Xalroz smiles lovingly at seeing this troll having a difficult time trying to kill him. He turns his head to Sannoth as she looks back at him."Sannoth, would you be a dear and remove this troll arm for me."

"Oh, it will please me to do that for you, my lord."
