Pachac Raor Clang
‘When will it end?’ I asked hundreds of times as I killed the red weasel monster coming at guard beside me, before defending against the claw of the black wolf monster.
The monsters have become crazy about reaching their leader, while we have formed circles over the circles to kill any monster trying to reach the leader.
We are killing the monsters at a rate like never before, but we are also dying at a rate like never before.
I don’t think we could continue long like this. We are tired. I am tired; that if I stopped, I would simply fall down.
I couldn’t even drink the stamina potion. I am already feeling an intense burn because of overconsumption; the same is true for healing.
I am also injured, but my injuries are not as heavy as they should have been, thanks to Zela. She had cast a couple of healing spells on me throughout the battle.
Clang Clang Rip!
I defended against the wolf monster and dodged the attack of Lainac, the squirrel monster, but not completely. Its claws were able to cut my thigh.
Giving me another injury.
I moved to deal with the black wolf monster, while the squirrel monster was stopped by Fang from attacking me again.
I am very glad that Fang had come and could fight, or I don’t think I would have survived here till now. Every person fighting here is lucky because, without luck, they wouldn’t have survived.
Though this luck is being tested, by every monster every minute.
Here, there are a huge number of monsters attacking us and we are killing them, but like endless tide. They kept coming. There seemed to be no end to them.
Slash.
I was able to slash the neck of the black wolf, but the bastard was agile and dodged at the last moment.
It was only a slight cut appeared on its neck.
If it had been a fraction of a second late in dodging, I would have slashed that head off.
Growl!
It growled at me and came at me.
I attacked again, carefully looking into its eyes. The wolves are the most devious monsters and I have learned that in a hard way.
In the battle against the wolf, I would use half of the focus on their eyes. It is where they show their emotions and right now, I could see what it is thinking.
It had changed the target from me to the soldier beside me, who was sitting down.
He is so heavily injured in the leg that he couldn’t even stand, but even then. He is holding his sword against any monster that comes at him.
If the wolf attacked, he wouldn’t be able to survive.
“The wolf is coming at you,” I said to him and there was no reaction from him.
It is not the first time I have reminded that of him. The dead bodies of monsters around him are proof of that.
I continue to move my sword without any change. It didn’t seem like I knew what it was doing until it changed its direction and my sword smoothly moved according to it.
The monster's eye widened, and it shifted to avoid the sword. For a moment, there was relief, seeing it had avoided the sword, but that relief was short-lived.
Puch!
As it turned toward its prey, it saw something coming at it, and before it could do anything; it pierced into its brain, killing it.
“Thanks,” said the soldier as he removed the sword from the monster.
The soldier might be injured and on the ground, but he is still doing everything he can to kill monsters. There is no other choice for him, he needs to do it to survive.
I nodded and looked at the battle behind me.
I am standing in the last circle and have a clear view of the battle happening behind me.
I could see the five of them fighting hard against the Lightning Leopard, the monster leader. They have even been able to injure it, but all the injuries they caused have been cauterized by the bastard.
I have seen this ability in a few fire elemental monsters, but I saw it first time, in the lightning elemental one.
Though it is not surprising, Lightning Leopard has it. This monster bears the strength above, the monsters of the same grade, and has many abilities.
One of them is rapid healing. Its injuries heal every passing second, while the group is getting more injured.
I was just thinking that when I saw it getting slashed by the chained dagger of August, before being cut by my sister’s misty blade.
ROAR!
It roared loudly and attacked my sister angrily, but Stone appeared in front of her with that huge shield.
I only watched the battle for a second before turning ahead.
I couldn’t let myself be distracted by the battle. I have a job to do and that is to stop any monster coming to help its leader. I will do it, till the battle end or I take my last breath.
I looked in front of me and saw the monsters attacking crazily.
I am one of the safest and the most dangerous places on the whole battlefield.
Safest because I didn’t have to feel the full brunt of monsters' assault, seeing I was in the last ring.
It is also the most dangerous because. If the group is behind me and isn’t able to kill the monster leader, I will be the first person it will kill after it has finished dealing with the group.
So, I really hope for myself and the rest of the army that they kill the monster leader.
There were no monsters for nineteen seconds and it was the longest time, I had been without a monster to fight since I had joined the circle.
However, the joy was short-lived, and as monsters came. They came in large numbers.
There are twelve dog monsters, and they are coming in my direction.
There are other people besides me, but we will at least need to handle three each; seeing half of the people around us are heavily injured and nearly defenseless.
These dogs are big. Bigger than most large size dogs and looked like irish wolfhounds. They have grey fur, red ears, and a murderous look in their eyes.
If I am not wrong; they are called Kriagr.
They are one of the hard-to-train dog monsters, but favorites of trackers. These bastards never lose a scent once they catch it.
Now, twelve of them have come, and while their state is not good. They are still in much better condition than any of us.
Growl Growl Growl!
These growled before coming at us fast and to my horror, I found four of them were coming at me.
I would have a problem stopping one of them, and now four of them are coming at me. They will easily tear me and the soldiers standing near me with ease.
Still, I readied myself despite the horror I was feeling. What other choice do I have?
I rather die fighting than collapse in fear.
Hun!
I was ready to move my sword toward them when suddenly a blue light shone on them.
Seeing that horror on my face turned into a smile, and I moved toward the monsters with my greatest speed.
Not only me, but other guards around me had done the same.
A moment later, a sphere of water covered the monsters, alarming them. They tried to get out of it, but it was futile, at least for a three and half seconds, which would be enough for us.
Puch Puch Puch!
My sword entered the water sphere and pierced through the eyes of the monster.
I removed the sword with a Swift Blade and pierced it into the eye of another monster in the second monster, the water sphere, before piercing into the third.
Thankfully, the other guards finished the other monsters, including my fourth.
I stepped back to my position and turned to Zela, who was in the ring in front of me with Jon. She was fighting against a group of monsters, but still helped me at the right time.
Since we came here for the final defense. Her help had been limited, but every time she helped, it had been lifesaving.
If not for her, I wouldn’t have been standing here alive.
I had just returned to my spot when suddenly I sensed something from above and a second later.
Thud!
A big red bird fell dead in front of me.
It is not the first time something like this has happened. Many birds fell from the sky; it is unfortunate that some people hadn’t been able to dodge it and got themselves injured and even worse.
I only glanced at the bird, before swinging my sword toward the coming monster.
A few minutes passed, and my condition had become even worse.
I became even more injured and tired, that now it is extremely straining for me to activate a single skill, but I am activating several at once, which made me feel like I might fall unconscious.
That is why, I have started using them exactly when I need them and stop when I am finished.
I am not keeping them active, even a second long, nor I could with the sheer strain they are giving me.
This efficient using seemed to be helping a little deal with the strain that was making me bleed from all my orifices.
I didn’t care for any of that.
What I care about is stopping the monsters, and I am doing that with help from the people around me.
Though, I don’t know how long I will be able to survive like this. I am seeing people around me dying and in one of those moments; it is going to be me.
ROAARRR!
I was having those grim thoughts as I killed another monster with Fang and got another injury when I heard the roar.
It was the loudest roar I had ever heard, and it seemed to be filled with pain.
I couldn’t help but turn back and see the monster leader covered in an icy mist. What attracted my gaze was the chained dagger on its neck and the huge sword on its back.
Which I instantly knew was of Stone; I am the one, who had given it to him.
It made me instantly notice Stone, lying on the ground not far away from the monster, with the lightning covering his body.
It was not just him. I even saw my sister lying beside him, twitching as lightning moved around us.
ROAARRR!
My heart skipped a beat, seeing that, but my eyes were immediately attracted by the lightning leopard, it roared again.
To my shock, it is moving toward me.
I noticed its unstable gait but also saw its speed and lightning covering it. It won’t take long to reach me and once it does, it will be a game over for me.
I felt horror deep in my heart and felt my hand releasing the sword. I picked the spear embedded on the ground; it used to belong to a soldier, who is now dead.
I had just picked it up when I saw Major Jarvis appearing in front of the monster.
Immediately, I took a sigh of relief, feeling I was saved.
BANNG!
That relief lasted only for a second. The monster's claws clashed against the sword of Major Jarvis, sending him away.
Earlier, the monster was only able to make him take a few steps back, but now it had sent him back hard enough, that he had barely been able to stop himself from falling.
The monster isn’t the only one who is injured. Major Jarvis is also heavily injured.
Now, Major Jarvis is out of the way. The monster moved again, and it didn’t change its direction.
It is coming at me.
Hun!
I removed the spear from the ground and saw Fang touching its tip with his energy claws, covering the tip with purple energy.
My tired mind smiled seeing him contributing and aimed the spear toward the monster.
The spear is a normal steel weapon. Unenchanted and dented in many places, but it is the only thing I have.
I threw the spear at a monster with every ounce of strength I had, along with the power of every skill I could harness. They resisted heavily, but I pushed through their resistance.
I do not believe it will do anything, and even the monster didn’t think it would do anything, seeing the mirth appearing in his eyes, but it is the only thing I could do.
The spear moved toward the monster, and there was no fear in the monster’s eyes.
Hun!
It took a second for the spear reached close to it, when suddenly alarm flashed in the monsters’ eyes.
A black arrow suddenly materialized over the monster and came at its incredible speed.
The arrow is completely black, and it is from Blackwell. It is not an energy arrow. It real one, and I had seen it in his quiver.
It is the only black arrow he has.
The lightning around its body blazed, and its speed increased further, but the arrow was too fast. The only thing the monster was able to do with its speed was change the target.
Now, instead of attacking its head; it will attack further back.
Puch!
The arrow pierced through its back, near Stone’s sword.
As the arrow struck the monster; something incredible happened.
In an instant, lightning disappeared from the monster's body. Not even a single spark of it had remained.
It alarmed the monster, more than seeing the spear appearing directly in front of its eyes.
Even now, when its lightning had disappeared; it didn’t seem to fear the spear and it shouldn’t.
The spear was normal. Even the strength I had thrown it with was nothing special. The only special thing about it was the purple energy covering the tip for which the monster seemed to feel no fear.
The spear reached its left eye, which it closed.
I thought the spear would be repelled by the thick eyelid but to my surprise and sheer horror of the monster, which was seen in its open right eye.
Puch!
The spear pierced through its eyelid and continued going inside, stopping only when it went over ten inches deep.
The monster opened its mouth while glaring at me with raging anger like lightning that started to spark across its body again.
I was waiting to hear its roar before it tore me apart, but I saw lightning that started to spark across my body suddenly disappear and the monster leader fell down.
Thud!
It crashed hard on the ground and continued skidding with the momentum, before stopping right in front of me, dead.
Dead.
The fearful monster leader is dead.
