I managed to dodge his first strike and attempt to strike his left feet, but I sense his incoming club attack from left to right.
I jumped high enough to dodge it and used my sword to stab his left leg.
I manage to hit him.
" ggrrrraauuoohhh?!! "
The orc was surprised. He didn't expect that I could land a hit to him.
I also smirk looking at him, and start to dodge his attack again.
The orcs attack pattern is so simple using it's club swinging left and right and that's all.
It's so easy and predictable.
Several minutes past and the battle is almost ending the orc left leg is already kneeling while still swinging its giant club.
I as if confirming my victory grin even wider.
But I am already exhausted too, by moving so much dodging the orcs powerful attack.
And the orc stopped, the grip of its club released and bow down his head as if he's surrendering.
Seeing this I jump out to deal a finishing blow.
But I made a mistake.
The hidden traits of the blue orc is their cunningness.
Although they're much more weaker than the normal orc they trick adventurer and killed them.
The blue orc finally laid it's trap. and I not noticing it step on it.
That's why.
While I was mid air readying myself to thrust the vital point a sudden left hand swing towards me.
It's so fast that I can't avoid it and there's a fact that I'm mid air.
I was stuck stared at those big hands quickly rushing towards me and then.
A left swing managed to hit it's target.
The target blow away.
=============================
[ lex!! ]
[ lex ..... up!! ]
[ Alex!!! ]
[ Alex wake up!!!! ]
' urgh '
' where am i? '
I slowly opened my eyes and wondered my eyes around.
Rev wake me up by loudly shouting my name.
" w-what's happeni--- brugghh arrgghh !! "
Once my consciousness has regained I felt a my body stinging in pain and also blurt out some of my blood.
I finally remembered what happened.
The orc successfully land a left swing towards me and here I am.
' I was careless again '
I regret making careless moves again.
Brushing off unnecessary thinking I tried to stand up but.
" what? my legs?... won't move? "
My legs refuse to move and stayed still.
Yet, The blue orc start to slowly walk towards me and laugh.
" gwaahh gwahh gwahh gwahh!! "
He also slowly lift his club and rest it on his right shoulder and look at me wearing a smirk on his face.
" oh no is this the end? "
I was paralyzed not just my body but also my thoughts.
While looking at the orcs slowly approaching I can only just question myself if it's the end.
But Rev who have still his composure said.
[ Alex the teleportation scroll ]
I regained same of my senses and start to ram at my almost empty bag and tried to find the scroll but.
" there's.... none? "
There's no teleportation scroll stored at my bag only the five silver coins I got recently are still inside my bag.
Suddenly recalling when I start to check my bag. I remembered it's open so I quickly look around.
" There it is!! "
I found the teleportation scroll lying on the ground not to far away from me.
Having seen hope I start to crawl on the ground to reached it.
The orc who's slowly walking towards me while observing my movements guessed out my plan and start to run towards me to deal his finishing blow.
Right now. It's a battle of speed and will.
I rush towards to scroll paying no mind by the cracking sound my bone make.
And the orc rushing towards me and to only swing his club downward once.
' please!! please!! please!! '
" graaauoooghhh!!! "
At the silent forest a thumping and the growl sound can only be heard.
And after a minute past the sound stopped by once big sound.
Alex has still luck on his side sleeping on the ground while his cheek are poked by someone.
" hehehe what do you think Albert? Do you think it's worth the time roaming here to save this person? "
The girl who's still playing at Alex cheek asked the one who defeat the blue orc using his giant mace.
" It's indeed worth it to scape from the castle to happen to see him and save him "
The man who have bulky body wearing a full plated armor replied to the girl's question.
" Princess "
It was the girl in the portrait.
The girl who happen to save Alex is the girl in the portrait the two guards give him.
Unfortunately Alex is already unconsciously by fighting that orc.
The girl stopped her hand and stood up.
" let's go back Albert "
She said, turned around and start to head back where the city resides in.
" understood.... Princess "
The royal guard say and lift Alex and put him to his right shoulder.
The guard also cut down the two fangs and the horn of that blue orc and put it inside Alex bag.
Princess of the Land of Fantasia.
Princess Sapphira Elise Golden
The Third Fated.
And also.
The Favored.
