Looking at my status I sure have come a long way. The average level of my party is 14. We made a lot of preparation for the coming war, we knoew it was onlt a matter of time. A week ago the orc patrols size doubled so our attacks decreased a bit.

Mark is level 16 same as me his control over mana reached another level apparently he focused on strengthing his aura when he uses it now you can see a blue hue around his body and sword. He has the highest damage per second in our group nearly doubles mine. Surprisingly Oliver has the highest single attack damage he learned a skill called heavy attack that increases his attacks damage by 50% also he covers his mace with earth magic making his attack way too strong but its basically a telephone punch which can be dodged easily.

But if you want to know who is the most deadly in our group. I don't like to brag but I don't think there is even a competition here.

Brian choose the path of windflare archer, he learned a skill to turn his arrows into flame bombs that explode in a huge fire on impact, his flames and wind complement each other nicely. He managed to improve his skills in wind and fire and now he can almost turn his arrows almost 30 degrees mid flight.

Kane has become a magic swordsman he learned how to augument his sword with different elements, wind makes it lighter and faster, fire makes it hoter, earth makes it heavier, and water makes it flexible.

And finally I am now able to control my darkness and wind magic from a distance of 5 meters, I have to say after my evolution my affinity to them has gone through the roof. I also manged to improve my way of using darkness and wind magic tremendously.

For the past week tens of orc scouts have gone into the forest as the patrol squads we hunted are near the forest. We knew it was only a matter of time before they find us. We used Emilia's plants to find and kill them but at some point one of them slipped throw our hands.

Now an army of five hundred orcs are heading to our village.

The orc army have tens of orc squad leader around 5 orcs are riding on two meters tall wolves and wearing black equipment with a giant axe on their backs which I assume are orc generals the rank just below orc commander.

Then there is a giant orc wearing obsedian armor with a huge hammer on his back he is riding on a nearly three meter tall bear. He is obviously an orc commander.

The orcs enter the forest and keep moving when they move deep enough a smile appears on my face now you can't retreat.

A brage of thorns hits the orc army from the front at the same time me and 6 others who has stealth based paths where hiding in strategically placed bushes stealthly attack the orc army from behind, Brian and 5 more Archers hiding in trees fire arrows at the orc army from the left side, Mark, Kane and 7 others who focus on speed attack from the right back side which is the furthest side from the orc commander.

The orc commander roars and his hammer turnes to flames then he makes a huge wave with his hand in the direction of the thornes, then he turnes to Mark and the others the only visable targets he sees and runs towards them, he then shouts at the division leaders and points to the direction the arrows came from, 50 orcs, 7 squad leaders, and 3 division leaders move in that direction.

Mark and his party rapidly disengage and retreat the orc commander is a lot faster but when he is 20 meters away from them massive amounts of pores explode from near by treas, thornes barages the orc from multiple directions. The orc roars and swings his hammer again, huge wave of fire spreades out. The orc looks around and then hears running from his left and moves in that direction a while later everyone from Marks party except Mark returns from the opposite direction the orc went and returns to the orc army to engage with them.

A plant that releases pores that causes hearing disorientation, the stronger the target the shorter the effect.

This plant wasn't found in the shop rather it exists naturally in the forest, at first we thought it was poisonous but nothing happened to people who breathed it, they just noticed that when people where talking to them they felt as if the voice was coming from behind them rather than from the person talking.

So although the effect would barely last a few seconds on the orc commander, Mark would continue to agro him and lead him to many different trapes and since Mark is the fastest in the village he should be able to manage.

Meanwhile Brian and his party kept firing arrows and retreating until they reached a certain point where the vines and bushes where very condensed leaving only a 20 meters wide path and then when the orcs entered tens of objects was thrown at the approaching orcs which explode in a huge blast. Then more than 50 orcs where no more.

<>

Deal 15 points of damage to enemies within 10 meters of the bomb upon impact.

<>

We bought nearly 70 of these bombs all of them were just thrown at the orcs. We couldn't use it on the large army because of the ten meter diameter of the bomb so we neaded them to be condensed in an area where they will be willing to enter and force them to be near each other.

Still the three orcs generals managed to survive along with two squad leaders. One squad leader is missing an arm and a leg, the other is missing only an arm, the orc generals are better off apparently they jumped off their wolves in the last second still they are covered in wounds.

The orc generals and the remaining functional squad leader roars and runs towards Brian and his party, they retreat and the orcs follow while running the orcs stamp on strange purple vines that causes some bulbus sacs along the purple vines to relase a mist that covers them they don't care and keep running when Brian suddenly turnes around and says "Hasta la vista, baby" a fire arrows flyes towards rhe division leaders but the dodge. Brian smilies as the fire expandes buy sudden air currents touching the mist and all the division leaders and the final squad leader turnes into balls of flames.

a highly reactive plant found in volcanic or high-temperature environments. It has developed a unique defense mechanism involving the release of oil that is similar to natural plant resins and turpentine when its vines are touched.

A chemist in the village informed us that turpentine is a highly flammable oil.
