The Moonlight Swordsman

Lockwood Town...

The town that once was always bustling with people is now on the brink of destruction.

More than 100 goblins, all armed with clubs, charged toward hunters and mages, while the rest of the Grade I goblin generals and the Grade II Goblin King stood by, waiting for their army to destroy the insignificant humans.

"Let's show these monsters what we're made of, everyone." One of the hunters shouted while raising his spear in the air; he was a well-built, 6' tall guy who gave off the aura of the general.

"Yeah, let's show them."

"Hehe, I am dying to test my new sword."

"Yeah, even if we're going to die, let's take as many fuckers as we can."

One by one, everyone shouted and cheered and rushed toward the goblins, while they did the same. All of the goblins rushed with clubs as weapons, and soon both met head-on in a clash.

The end result of that was brutal; goblins began swinging clubs wildly, as the weapons were so heavy that they simply mashed the hunters into pulp if they were hit by them.

Hunters were doing their best to avoid and inflict damage on thick-skinned goblins. The man fighting with the spear was displaying his incredible skill.

He was fighting four goblins who were swinging clubs at him one after the other, while the man was just dodging and stabbing them one by one with his spear's mana enhancement.

He killed them one by one while focusing on the others, and everyone else did the same. The hunters were fighting goblins in groups, covering each other's backs.

Mages had it easy; they just stood in the back, shooting fireballs, water bullets, and so on. One mage was building stone walls and trapping goblins one by one, while the other was grilling them with fire.

Alisha and the rest of the group were fighting and covering each other in the back. Alisha was in the middle, using a bow. While Harry was her shield and Nathan was inflicting and slashing the goblins with his dual swords, Alisme was like an assassin, quickly slicing throats and stabbing them with daggers after Nathan had done the damage.

*Huff* If only Aizel had been there, it would have been much easier." Harry said this while gasping for air and attempting to block the club from the goblins. The weight of the club and goblin strength was so heavy that his arm shook in pain.

"Well, he is not; just focus on the task now; one mistake and we would be dead," Alisha said while shooting arrows one after another, enhancing them with mana, and aiming for the goblin's eyes and brain.

That was one of the thick-skinned goblins' weak points. The hunters were doing everything they could to reduce the population, but it wasn't enough. As there were only about 50 hunters and only 10 mages, more and more were being smashed to a pulp by goblins.

"This isn't going to work, Thomas; they'll all die before they can even buy us time. The Grade I goblins haven't moved from their spot, and there's also the Grade II Goblin King." David said this as he stood behind Thomas with his longsword, trying to find a way out of this hellish situation.

The Goblin King, who was standing quietly, took a curved, bone-shaped horn and blew it just as Thomas was about to say something.

*honnnkkk.....

The ten Grade I goblin generals who had been standing silently finally made their move.

The Goblin Generals began running towards the hunters and mages, carrying a large, heavy club on their shoulders.

One of the hunters, who was also wielding a large, heavy shield, dashed forward to block the goblin general's first strike. The club, swinging at full speed and slamming into the shield, sent the hunter flying straight back.

Before the rest of the group could react, two more goblin generals dashed forward, swinging their clubs with full force and smashing them to pulp.

It was pure carnage everywhere those ten Grade I goblin generals moved; they were smashing the hunters to mush.

Because they knew only Grade I mages could fight them, all nine mages stepped forward to fight alongside them. Only 20 or more hunters were left to support them.

The hunters were outnumbered and outmatched, and their only hope was that the mages could defeat the goblin generals with their magic. With so few hunters left to support them, the mages knew they needed to act quickly and strategically if they were to survive.

The earth elemental mage began erecting stone walls and swamps in front of the goblin generals.

While the fire mage began shooting fireballs one after the other, the wind mage was wielding a fan as a weapon and directing wind tornadoes at the goblin generals.

That did nothing but stall the time for them; meanwhile, Thomas started gathering mana around him as he was preparing for something.

He raised his hands in the air, and, out of nowhere, a big tsunami wave came and washed in to ward off the goblin generals.

"Wow, that might be close to a Grade II mage power." One of the mages commented after witnessing the power.

But suddenly, Goblin King, who was standing still, ran slowly, jumped high in the air, and landed straight in front of the goblin generals.

He raised both palms as Mana began to flow, releasing a torrent of flames that vaporized the water tsunami.

Roarrrr..............

He roared in victory while the rest of the goblin generals did the same.

Aizel, who was quietly watching everything from the roof, stared at the Goblin King closely.

"So you can use fire, huh?"
