Alaric was moved, but this was no time for bravado.
"If you want to help me, then don't let the small fries interfere. I'll deal with the goblin chieftain on my own." He muttered.
They would only hinder him if they joined the battle.
The Knight Apprentices understood this so they nodded with serious faces.
"Be careful, my lord!"
At this moment, the goblin chieftain finally made a move.
It rushed at them with quick and heavy strides. Each step left a deep footprint in the ground, a clear testament to its weight and strength.
After gaining momentum, it lifted its weapon, a huge spiked club that screamed danger.
With a wide swing, it brandished the spiked club, causing a violent blast of wind.
"Stay back!" Alaric shouted at his subordinates.
He then channeled his mana to strengthen his arms.
Subsequently, he made a quick dash forward, forcing the goblin chieftain to change the direction of its attack.
