162 Intense Battle
—–
Aquarina used the Arts she had once used against me when we sparred, as she moved so fast using her knife while coating it with water that the illusion of a large and sharp trident showed up, as if a god of the oceans was helping her attack, her piercing blows reached three Goblins that attempted to smack her with their blunt weapons.
CLASH! CLASH! CLASH!
The three goblins suddenly had three enormous holes over their chests, and began to vomit mouthfuls of blood, these low-level monsters were not really a threat to us, and even Aquarina unleashed her power to the extent of one-shotting them with a single blow each.
Seeing that their numbers were decreasing desperately, the goblins acted more barbaric and didn’t obeyed the Goblin Champions orders of seemingly being wary, rushing at us and trying to finish us off with anything they had.
Zack targeted a group of five goblins at once, charging his axe with thunder and hitting the ground with it with all his strength!
TRUUUMMM!!!
The entire ground trembled as the lightning within his weapon unleashed a powerful shockwave of lightning, reaching the goblins and electrifying them!
SPAARK!
…..
Two of the five goblins received a large quantity of damage, and were grilled alive, meanwhile, the other three that were left fell over the floor and began to roll in agony while having their bodies filled with electricity.
“Pyuuuuku!”
Pyuku in the other case pointed out its bow to the goblins behind my back, covering them with its mana and firing high-speed arrow shots at them, most of the time landing on their heads and killing them instantly.
However, the arrows quickly ran low, and it quickly ended without ways of attacking… of course, until it grabbed the weapons the goblins left in the floor and began launching them into their heads.
Meanwhile, as I attacked the Goblin Champion, the bastard managed to defend himself with a barrier of darkness, as he looked at me with a defying glare of pure anger.
“GRAAAAH! You damn human!”
It suddenly spoke the common tongue! He can speak?!
The Goblin Champion began to rush directly towards me, grabbing a large club from the ground and using it to attempt to hit me, covering the club with the power of his dark magic, its size suddenly increased and the impact over the floor was strong, making the surroundings tremble!
BOOOMMM!
I had evaded in time, jumping away by propelling myself with the flames of my Ember Skill, I quickly waved my hands, as I summoned my spirits to battle as well.
“Ignatius, Naturia, come out and help me!”
FLASH! FLASH!
A floating egg covered in flames showed up, it had a few cracks over its body, and a small, red-scaled tail and two tiny legs could be seen coming out of it, alongside one of its eyes from within. Ignatius had slowly been breaking out of the shell over the months, as if he were slowly growing inside the egg, perhaps one day he could finally manage to hatch, but this process was slow.
And then there was Naturia, who resembled a big, green-colored bean that was wide open, growing a large sapling with a few colorful leaves, it even had a beautiful red flower on top of her head now, she looked adorable.
“Damn it! What kind of trouble did you get yourself in now?!” asked Ignatius.
“Fooohhh!” said Naturia.
“L-Let me help too, Sylphy!” said Furoh from within my soul scape.
“Are you sure?!” I asked.
“Yeah! We have trained enough! I am confident I can help even if a little bit, damn it!” he said.
“Okay then!” I said, quickly summoning Furoh.
FLASH!
Unlike the two spirits Ignatius and Naturia, Furoh was a physical being, he was still having his body, but now he had become a familiar and could enter my soul scape, that was pretty much it, so he didn’t possessed the special capabilities of spirits like floating in midair, turning into pure elemental magic to aid me in the conjuration of magic easily, or other things.
But he could become a good companion too! Furoh emerged out of thin air, surprising the Goblin Champion that glared me down while I was falling from midair.
“RAAAAH!”
Furoh roared like a monster, as he extended his worm-like body and fell over the Goblin Champion, coiling over our foe’s body and beginning to use his sharp fangs and jaws to pierce through its hard skin, while using his hard muscles through his fleshy body to attempt to asphyxiate him!
“AGRAAAAGGH…!”
The Goblin Champion groaned in pain as it tried to tear apart Furoh with his sheer strength, the muscles of his arms looked incredibly strong, but his shoulders were tightly wrapped by Furoh’s body, and his arms couldn’t reach Furoh properly!
Furoh was boosting his strength through the usage of Mana, my own Mana, of course!
The advantage of Familiars is that they can use all the mana they could want from their master. And because I got endless Mana, Furoh can constantly boost his own strength using it, it is a very simple ability, but it is something that most demons know innately, the power to increase their body’s physical strength through merely infusing mana into their bodies without the necessity to use body-enhancing spells.
So more than a spell, it was like an ability they possessed, although there was a limit to everything, and even Furoh couldn’t take infinite mana into his body without suffering the consequences, so he was draining as much as he could take. We had practiced this before several times, as he hasn’t been simply slacking around while doing nothing, he had been working hard for a long time now.
“GRAAHHH! Damn… worm! I will kill you too! Aggghhh!”
The Goblin Champion was able to speak but the only words he was spitting were those filled with hate… he was filled with a lot of anger, and seemed to hate us to death.
Ignatius and Naturia quickly acted after Furoh, combining their magical attacks!
