"Attack!" shouted Fenral.
Eul shapeshifted into a werewolf and dashed towards the fray. Houstin used savagery and beast instincts and ran.
Fenral turned to Brute werewolf and used savagery. He dashed and clawed the hobgoblins.
Lumiel on the contrary was in defensive mode. He swirled his staff as he smashed the ones who wanted to attack him.
He summoned two wolves and crows. Making it a field dominated by his summons. It would be a death wish for them to enter that field. However, it did not stop the enemies to prey on him. They thought that it was only for display.
Lumiel dashed and the summons followed. The two wolves attacked the hobgoblins and Lumiel smashed his staff. The two werewolves attacked and used Rip and Bite. Followed by a Menacing howl. They also used Rend in intervals. Making the enemies a piece of paper that was ripped apart. Blood sprayed in all directions.
Lumiel soon saw that the Champion was still watching them with a bored look. He was just observing the battle and then flinched every time one hobgoblin was down. Making him stand up when he saw Fenral grab one hob and rip it in half.
The Champion stood after he saw that his men were disadvantaged. He growled and threw his axe at Fenral.
Whoosh!
Fenral almost flinched but ducked in a moment's passing. He thought he would lose his head at that moment. Making him growl at his enemy.
The Champion stood and grabbed another two-handed axe. Wielding it with just one hand. He growled at them and then gripped the axe tightly. Poised into a stance then dashed towards them while hurling the dirt.
They were immediately alarmed that the champion disappeared in a split second.
Only to appear at Houstin's back.
In a blink of an eye, Fenral dashed and pushed him. Making him take the hit instead.
Lumiel was shocked and was on full alert. Making him dash towards the enemy with his summons.
'Crows distract him!" Lumiel commanded.
But immediately, he swatted the crows with his axe. Making his crows flung with just a swing of the flat side of the axe. They were nearly panicking and Lumiel was in a calm mind.
He soloed the Champion with just his staff. Making the two produce a ringing sound with every hit their weapons clashed.
Ting! Bang! Bing!
Lumeil immediately switched with Eul. He clawed the champion which was hit on the chest but it was too shallow. More attack was needed and heavier at that.
The champion was looking at them with pity. They were already struggling with just him as their enemy.
He bashed the weapon of Lumiel and Lumiel could only grit his teeth on its heavy attacks. Houstin switched with him and clawed with his fastest attack but the champion sidestepped. Making him evade the claws of Houstin.
Lumiel was alerted. Fenral was down and needed a health potion. Eul made him drink it and then Fenral was revived.
Lumiel combined his attacks with Houstin plus the wolves and crows.
Houstin clawed and the wolves blocked the attack of the Champion. Making them slashed with the axe and went back to Lumiel. Crows distracted the Champion and pecked his eyes and so Houstin had a chance to land a claw on his face and shoulders.
He clawed some more and he hit the right eye of the Champion. Making him retreat and let the crows distract him.
Lumiel was also on his end. As his mana was about to run out with all the damage that the summons were taking. He heals them with his mana and was left with no choice.
Fenral immediately switched with him as he told him that he would handle it from now on.
"Thanks for tiring him out, you've done well!" he patted the shoulders of each one of them.
He immediately dashed and used Lycan berserker skill and drew his two-handed sword.
Bang! Boom! Bing!
Their weapons clashed and the enemy was taken aback. He was surprised that the enemy he was taking on was making him struggle.
The champion slashed his axe and Fenral ducked towards his blind spot.
"You're dead!"
Making him slash its neck and its head went flying.
Pak! Pak!
His head rolled with eyes still open wide. Making Fenral kick it in sheer disgust and annoyance.
Lumiel immediately sat on the dirt as his adrenaline had passed. His strength on his legs has left for a second. While panting, Houstine and Eul went rejoicing. They laughed in sheer feeling that they were alive and survived.
Soon, they saw the females that the goblins had taken hostage and they rescued them. Their faces were void of expressions and were all in terrified looks.
They rescued them and they saw Team 1 already headed their way. Eul and Houstine waved at them as well as Fenral.
"Oi! How are you guys?" Fenral asked them.
"We are fine. We killed a lot," said their leader.
[Dungeon requirement was met]
[You are now level 4!]
[Dungeon is closing in 1 hour]
They soon exited the dungeon and the females were all rescued. They were assisted into the briefing room to be taken care of.
Lumiel pitied them though. They were met with terrible fates. All he could do was to pray for their fast recovery. He went to the others and said goodbye.
"I am sad to say this but this is the time we part ways. I will come back again maybe later to join with you all," Lumiel said to them.
"Wait, you leaving us?" Eul was shocked.
"Huh? What are you doing Lumiel?" Houstin was agitated by his decisions.
"I am serious though, we will meet again. I hope you all stay healthy and alive till then." Lumiel was sad though he needed to do this. For his next plans.
He turned around and then walked away. Never saying anything. To them, they felt betrayed. But Lumiel said they will be reuniting someday. Maybe soon, maybe not at all.
