Badr: The dust surrounds the place. What an explosion!
Osama: Badr, let's be prepared for the toughest circumstances. Escape should be our priority.
Badr: Of course, the fog will soon clear. Get ready.
(In the background with another character)
Ahmed: There's no sign from Badr and Osama. I don't think it's wise for us to follow them.
Mohammed: Do you want to give me orders?
Ahmed: We're not in a position to engage in class disputes or your narcissism right now. It's either life or death.
Mohammed: Of course, death will be your fate, you foolish peasant!
(Ahmed turned with his horse)
Ahmed: Go alone, brave hero. I will go meet with Adel and Layla and enter with them.
Mohammed: Do what you want; you're of no use.
(Mohammed set off, and Ahmed returned to Adel and Layla)
Layla: Oh no! You're always arguing!
Adel: What should we do? He's a foolish narcissist.
Ahmed: I'm worried; everyone who went near the fog hasn't sent a signal. Will we be okay?
Layla: You and Adel go; I will provide support with my arrows from the back.
Adel: (smiling) Come on, Ahmed, let's penetrate the fog and create our own glory.
(As Ahmed and Adel penetrated the fog, there was a shocking sight!)
Badr and Osama and Mohammed were kneeling from fear!!
Ahmed: What happened???
Osama pointed silently with his finger ahead, and both Adel and Ahmed also dropped to their knees.
Ziad was lying on the shattered ground, and the bodies of Deputy Leaders Yahya and Khaled were headless.
The Goblin Deputy Leader was reclining on his throne, resting his fists on his cheek, looking down in contempt at everyone.
Ahmed: R... r... ru... ruuuuuuun!
(A horde of goblins, numbering around two thousand, gathered and formed a circle around the knights. There was no escape, and they raised their spears, each spear holding the head of a fallen soldier.)
There were two giant spears bearing the heads of Khaled and Yahya.
Goblin Deputy Leader:(screaming) Fools!!
The first and second teams looked at the Goblin Leader in shock, tears streaming from their eyes, knowing their fate was death.
Mohammed: How? How can the Goblin Leader speak? Isn't it only leaders and above who can talk?
Goblin Deputy Leader: Shut your mouth! I told you that you are fools. I deliberately had your scouting team enter the village while hiding most of the goblins and pretended to be the Deputy Leader to lure you here. (grinning wickedly) And now my fun begins!
The goblins started screaming and lifting their spears.
Goblin Leader: Quiet! The execution ceremony will begin now for us to celebrate!
The goblins ignited fires everywhere and burned the heads of the dead.
Goblin Leader: Alright, who shall we start with first??
Ahmed, Adel, Osama, Mohammed, and Badr swallowed hard, and sweat poured down their faces.
Layla rushed into the scene.
Goblin Leader: Bring me that girl; she looks beautiful!
The goblins surrounded Layla, she tried to resist, but their numbers were overwhelming, and they dragged her into the center of the execution ground.
Layla:(screaming in tears) Noooo! I don't want to die! Stop! Please don't kill me! Help me, friends!
But the five looked at her with despair, unable to move from their places.
Layla: Cowards, why did you join the army? I want to—
One of the goblins severed her head in half.
Due to the shock, the five remained silent, all feelings erased from their faces, waiting for their turn to die, one by one.
(In short, the five fell into a state of shock.)
Goblin Leader: This is boring! You, with the green sword, come here!
Mohammed: (his spirit shattered) I can't move. My legs won't rise.
Goblin Leader: I will give you a chance to live. Fight a monster in front of me. If you can survive, I will let you live.
All Mohammed needed was a glimmer of hope!!
He stood up once he realized he would face a goblin of equal strength.
He rose, his legs still trembling from shock.
The goblin came with two knives and ran swiftly towards Mohammed.
Mohammed: It's coming! I must defeat it!
Mohammed drew his sword and began to clash with the goblin for more than ten minutes, exchanging blows.
Mohammed: Because of my fatigue, I can't defeat it. My arms feel heavy, and I can't keep up with its speed. I need to unleash a Dragon Attack capable of taking it down.
(As Mohammed gathered Dragon Energy, another goblin entered the arena)
Mohammed: This is unfair! We didn't agree to fight two!!
Goblin Leader: Who set the rules in the first place? Ha ha ha!
Mohammed: Damn you!
Then a stab struck his spine, sufficient to leave him paralyzed for life!
Mohammed fell to the ground.
Goblin Leader: (with a wide smile) Now, if you can survive a minute of the goblins' stabs, I will let you live, oh rule-maker!
Mohammed raised his eyes upwards, not being able to move a single finger.
Suddenly, the goblins jumped on him, stabbing him everywhere until he passed away.
Goblin Leader: I'm bored! Kill everyone now!
And then the sound of galloping horses approached.
Mysterious Person: "Ice Mountain."
(A skill considered special, capable of launching tons of ice mountains and freezing anything in its path)
Most of the monsters were frozen as this person descended, holding his sword.
The mysterious person ordered his troops: Soldiers, General Osama is unconscious over there. His ability and skill rely on blood. Go and supply his body with blood!
Ahmed and the others were still unable to move from shock.
Mysterious Person: (thinking) I need to analyze the situation. I have delayed too much. In front of me is a high-ranking monster, and there are four useless soldiers, likely hiding a trump card this monster has, and Ziad can barely move now. I don't see the other deputies. The outcome of this battle is nothing but a certain loss.
(Ahmed began to regain consciousness from his shock)
Ahmed: Where am I? Am I dead?
Suddenly, there were heavy footsteps and strong breaths.
Blue Dragon: I have not chosen a bearer for millions of years. I sensed something different in you, but from what I see, you chose to be a nobody.
Ahmed: What do you mean by that??
Blue Dragon: When I grabbed my sword and saw all your memories, I thought you were someone with potential. That was my belief, but when I saw the Goblin Leader, you disappointed me. You stood like a statue while your friends were killed, and you just watched them. You always called yourself weak. All those moments weren't enough to make you a man.
Ahmed:(hands on his head) How did I forget what happened? How can I face a power I cannot handle?
Blue Dragon: So why did you step onto the battlefield? The battlefield isn't for cowards. If you want to become stronger, you can't just kill those weaker than you. You need to endure suffering to grow stronger. And when the moment of death comes, die honorably, and do not die a coward. If you can't comprehend all this, why did you join in the first place? There's no way for you to grow stronger. Luck may save you once or twice, but after that, the most horrific ways to die await you.
Ahmed: What should I do then?
Blue Dragon: Defeat your fears, fight, and remember you are a warrior. You have the potential, but what holds you back is your fear and your belittlement of yourself.
Mysterious Person: What is this? There's a dragon aura emanating from one of the four in the back. This is good; it will change the tide of battle, even if just slightly!
Goblin Leader: What's this commotion? Just additional soldiers.
Mysterious Person: I am General pride, one of the strongest generals of this continent. I was sent by the leader of the Northern Continent to support this raid and eliminate you. Remember my name well; it will be the last name you hear.
The Goblin Leader leaped high into the air, gripping his spear.
Goblin Leader: I have no need to remember it; you will die now!
General pride:(Ice Sword)
(A third-category skill that allows its user to cover their sword in ice and freeze everything it touches).
The General's sword clashed with the Goblin Leader's spear, and from the force of the impact, the ground around them shattered.
Goblin Leader: What? My spear is starting to freeze! What are you doing, you?!
The leader stumbled back!!
Ahmed: My consciousness is returning! I need to move! Who is this? He's dueling with the leader! His aura is very powerful!
Ahmed rushed towards Adel.
Ahmed:(hitting Adel) Brother, wake up! Come on! This isn't the time for shock! Damn, he's not responding!
Ahmed moved to Osama and Badr, but to no avail.
General pride:Any wrong attack could shift the balance of the battle. I must think wisely!
The Goblin Leader charged swiftly towards the General.
General pride: Now, "Ice Mountain"!
(Tried to build a wall of ice, but to no avail, the leader smashed through the wall and rushed towards the General)
Goblin Leader: You've fallen into a trap!!
Pride used his Ice Sword to fend off the Goblin Leader's spear.
General pride: There's something wrong! His attack is becoming reckless and unplanned!
Goblin Leader: You persistent fool! But your end is now!
Suddenly, the Deputy Goblin Leader jumped from behind, wielding two massive swords.
General pride: Damn! If I block the leader's strike and turn to face the deputy, the leader will strike me down, and if I continue with him, the deputy will slice me from behind! What do I do? Think, think, think!
Then he spotted a blue aura passing by him...
Ahmed extracted the remaining full aura of the dragon within him, protecting the back of the General and blocking the two swords with his own.
Ahmed: Ahhh! He's so strong! If I continue trying to resist his strike, I will be crushed into the ground!
Ahmed's hand began to tremble, with the deputy's sword poised to crush him.
General pride:(facing the leader and having Ahmed behind him) Thank you, boy!
Pride kicked Ahmed from behind with all his might to distance him from the Deputy Leader.
Ahmed: No! He'll be crushed by the Deputy's sword!!
General pride: "Awakening the Dragon"!
(The awakening will be explained later in the story).
A huge explosion occurred, and both Fakhur and the battlefield became engulfed in ice!!
Goblin Leader: If I hadn't dodged it in time, I would have been dead now!
General pride: Soldier, I'm entrusting you with the task of eliminating the deputy; he's frozen now. As for me, I will handle the leader.
Ahmed: How can I kill the Deputy Leader??
Pride: The answer lies within you!!!
While Fakhur was speaking to Ahmed, the Goblin Leader lunged at Fakhur while he wasn't paying attention!
Goblin Leader:You will die now!
General pride:(lifting his eyes and raising his hands in the air) "Ice Blades"!
(The Ice Blades were a first-category skill, where Fakhur launches sharp ice in the form of daggers)
Goblin Leader: Your tricks will not work! Take my spear!!
The Goblin Leader looked at his hand, seeing it severed, his arm along with his spear soaring high in the sky.
Goblin Leader: Oh, how long has it been since I fought a serious battle! I'm starting to feel joy!
The Goblin Leader completed his attack, twisting his body in the air, gathering his good fist and striking Fakhur with all his might.
Ahmed: What is this? The General shattered like glass! How is this possible?!
The General emerged from behind the leader...
General pride: Do you think an attack like that can knock me down? "Ice Mountain"!
Fakhur pulled out a giant ice spike, piercing the Goblin Leader in the belly, lifting him up, and suspending him in mid-air.
Ahmed: I need to do something too!
Ahmed tried to gather all the blue aura emanating from his body, channeling it into his sword. Here, Ahmed established his first attack. It was a first-category skill where Ahmed transforms the dragon aura into energy in his sword and unleashes it upon the enemy.
Ahmed: I did it! I unleashed my first special attack; it should be enough to cut the Deputy Leader.
Pride: No! That's not enough to cut him!!
The strike smashed into the ice surrounding the Deputy Leader, doing nothing but lightly scratching him.
Goblin Leader: I never thought I would use this soon. "Awakening the Beast"!
The Goblin Leader's power exploded, his arms restored once again.
Pride: Soldier, run! There's no longer a chance to win!
Suddenly, the leader vanished and reappeared before General Fakhur.
Pride: What is this speed!!
Fakhur lifted his sword to block the leader, but the leader kicked from below and flung him away.
Ahmed: He's too fast! I can't keep up with what's happening!
As Ahmed spoke, the leader appeared in the blink of an eye before his face.
Ahmed: I don't have the right reflexes to counter this!!
The leader struck hard with his spear, but just before the spear reached Ahmed's head, sharp ice spikes emerged beneath the leader.
The leader jumped high, evading them all.
General pride: Where are you going? I am your opponent here!!
The Deputy Leader rushed toward Ahmed, combining his two swords and delivering a powerful strike.
Ahmed: Should I evade or block? I don't have enough time to think!!
(((Blood Blade)))!
blades of blood struck the Deputy Leader repeatedly.
General Ziad, gasping: I have delayed until I could gather my energy once more!
Now the final battle began: pride against the leader, and Ahmed and Ziad against the Deputy Leader. Who will emerge victorious?
To be continued...
