Lurk hinted towards the man in armor with the axes, towards Vorm. Vorm nodded as he was suddenly clad in a shade of darkness. He moved out along the edge of the room away from the glow of the floating lights each member of the adventure party had swirling gently around them.
Lurk then motioned to the woman with the bows to Aurk, Aurk already having his bow ready, he aimed at the woman from his hiding spot. Lurk then turned his attention to the Dark elf, who was about to clasp another collar onto another woman.
Alex gave a shocked cry of pain, as Vorm suddenly leaped out from the shadows that literally followed him as if stretched out from the darkness. Alex was stabbed in his leg, where his armor had been damaged from the battle with the goblins inside the cave, they had had a fierce battle in here with the remaining goblins, Alex had taken the brunt of the goblins charge, something he was used too.
Bellie was about to react when suddenly an arrow flew out from the entrance of the room, piercing into her should of her dominant arm. Causing her to yelp out in pain. How did she not see the goblins coming! Her eyes looked towards the entrance seeing now that there was a subtle disturbance, someone had used Dark magic! to shield goblins from view! She was wounded but she still managed to ready her bow and fire off arrows into the darkness in a spray.
"[Rapid fire!]"
Aurk got hit by one arrow in his leg, the other missing thankfully due to the darkness making it impossible for a proper aim. But the robed girl behind Bellie suddenly rushed closer to her and a gentle glow went into Bellie.
Grandir flipped around from his focus on the women seeing that they were being ambushed, he lobbed off two wind shearing spells towards the darkness in the entryway, they rushed forward causing everyone in the cave to feel the wind blowing past them. But then suddenly they slammed into a different gust of wind that caused them to dissipate into different directions. Everyone's hair and clothes were blown about from the explosive burst of air coming from the two air spells hitting each other.
Alex now reacted turning around swinging his ax at the assassin, but the assassin was grabbed onto his back following behind his turn. Alex tried to get the goblin off, in a brief panic, feeling another attempt of a stab against his back but his armor deflected it this time!. He managed to focus and called out his shield skill.
"[Shield Wall!]"
His shield got the gentle glow around it expanding the width of his shield greatly. He swung his shield back behind him, the extra width surprised Vorm and he got knocked off with taking a violent strike to his body sending him flying off Alex that wasted no time to spin around, slashing out with his ax, Vorm was lucky that he had been hit as hard as he was. The ax missing by a hairs width.
Grandir now suddenly felt immense danger as an explosive burst of wind happened from the shadows, A goblin with one arm came bursting out directly at him with a sword in its other hand.
"[Burst!]"
Lurk had cast his new spell, Burst would propel him forward at immense speed, he was about to strike out at the Dark elf mage, when he called out another skill.
"[Slice!]"
His arm moved rapidly, striking the mage multiple times across his body, but the mage had managed just barely to cast one of his own spells.
"[Mage Armor!]"
His body was covered in a small field, each of Lurks strikes caused ripples to spread out from each location. It was just like the stasis spell Mercia was under. But it was already breaking, as opposed to Mercia's that could take several goblins constantly striking her for a long duration. But it was enough to save the mage from the strikes.
Grandir grinned wickedly, having been unharmed by the sudden attack. He waved his arm rapidly at Lurk, sending out a violent gust of air.
["Shockwave!"]
Lurk and the women near the mage were all sent flying away from him, Lurk spinning in the air, he managed to focus and call out another burst.
["Burst!"]
It stabilized him sending him back onto the ground, he leaped towards Grandir, as he flung his own spell at Grandir.
["Wind Bullet!"]
Grandir quickly held up his hand using the quick wind spell to knock the bullet out of the way! This goblin was tenacious! It had been a while since he had seen such an adept goblin mage! And it was the one-armed goblin! They would now get the bounty too! along with all the slave women! Grandir was already counting the money in his head, a grin on his face. He was clearly feeling on top of the situation.
Meanwhile, Bellie was having a rough time, another arrow had struck her, if not for the healing of the girl behind her she would have been unable to return fire due to the pain in her shoulder, but the useless healer was already at her limit.
"Shield me from him Sylvie!!" Sylvie immediately leaped in front of the woman, the arrows suddenly stopped coming, surprising Bellie, who quickly took aim at something she could see without a doubt and aim true at. Her bow turned to face Lurk who was flying towards Grandir.
Alex leaped forward into the darkness, the light swirling around him, but the darkness that was flowing around the goblin would not accept the light to pass through it. It made it incredibly hard to aim his ax as he swung wildly into it, Vorm struggled madly to get away from the fierce warrior. When suddenly Alex began to feel a painful throb from his leg. It got increasingly worse and suddenly it increased tenfold as his pain exploded, his leg felt like it had just been flayed open, he collapsed onto the ground screaming out.
Just as Bellie let her arrow fly, Lurk quickly held up his hand to block the arrow with his own wind shield cantrip, the arrow flying right through it, but still diverged away from hitting him in the upper part of his torso, the arrow sinking into his side, causing him to gasp out in pain, gritting his teeth.
Grandir laughed out using both hands about to send out flurries of wind shears into Lurk and slice him up. When an arrow flew from the entryway into the cave right at him, past Lurks head, Grandir was shocked and in the midst of his attack spell casting turned to shield himself, but the arrow went past it, striking right into the lower part of his hand and into his arm even!
Grandir cried out in pain, seeing Lurk coming right at him, the sword moving straight for his head. But Grandir used his free arm to cast a spell creating a small shielding surface in front of it, causing the sword to be knocked out of the way.
Lurk followed up by suddenly lunging his hook arm up into Grandirs Chest, slicing him through his robe, but only a slight scratch was all he felt from the desperate attack.
["Shockwave!!"]
Lurk was once more sent flying away from Grandir, slamming into a wall hard. Causing him to drop his sword, collared women were lying all around him.
"Grab that goblin!!" Grandir yelled loudly at the women, his unwounded hand having grabbed onto the Rod with two crystals on either end of it, The women all ignoring their wounded state scrambled to grab onto Lurk who was suddenly tackled by them.
Bellie saw Alex completely incapacitated on the ground, screaming out madly in pain his mouth frothing. He had dropped his shield and ax and was completely unable to help anymore. She knew the assassin was in the cave somewhere but he had pulled back into the darkness. She moved as Sylvie followed her being her shield. But the swirling lights did not uncover the dark covered goblin.
"Sylvie! Light!"
Sylvie cast a large ball of light up above her. The cave briefly turned bright, a Dark mass being shown near the crack running through the cave where water was running down below, Bellie smirked and sent several arrows into the Dark mass, each arrow passing right through it, bellies eyes widening in shock! There was nothing in the dark mass!
From the crack in the ground Vorm suddenly leaped out, now not covered in shadow, he had left the shadow floating as he himself jumped down into the crack hiding. He wanted the woman to shoot at it so he could close the distance between them.
Bellie struck a defensive pose as Vorm sliced at her manically. She had to avoid getting hit! or share Alex's Fate!. Grandir quickly turned to see Bellie being assaulted in close combat, Alex on the ground frothing at the mouth screaming madly rolling on the ground. He lobbed a large wind shear at the entryway where the arrows had been coming from. Causing rocks to spray out and a pained howl coming from the darkness.
Lurk was being grabbed by naked women in the meantime struggling to escape them without hurting them. Grandir turned to stare at the goblin being grabbed. he pointed at the goblin.
"At least you die in the embrace of many women! you lousy goblin!"
"[Holy Aura!!]"
Grandir covered his eyes as suddenly Lurk had a Bright halo burst into being behind him, Grandir had never seen this before. A Goblin that knew both Wind magic at this level! And now Holy magic!!!
He had to fire everything at this goblin, regardless of what would happen to the slave women he wanted to sell. He began charging up a wind spear to throw into the sprawling mass of women.
["Roar!!"]
But the women suddenly cried out and fled away from Lurk, who stared right at Grandir, his eyes flaring up violently in purple light. Grandir was shocked hearing the roar from the goblin, he hesitated and stumbled back. But still charging the spell. When he felt a stab in his side. The scratch from Lurk felt like it suddenly had a rusty dagger sticking inside it.
Bellie was struggling to defend herself from Vorms frantic assault. But she had trained for this. But suddenly she was tackled from behind, Aurk had rushed out from the entryway. Knocking Sylvie aside, his body was bleeding from many locations as he had dodged the wind shear Grandir had thrown at him, but the rocks thrown around like fragments had peppered him in multiple wounds.
Bellie shrieked out in horror as the two goblins tackled her down.
"Sylvie! help me!" But Sylvie had fallen over, her mana burned out, having been pushed aside she had collapsed on the ground unable to stand up anymore, despite the insistence of the collar around her neck.
["Wind Spear!!"]
Grandir managed to launch the spear right at Lurk, just as the pain exploded in his side, he had not been able to put all his full power into the spear. But it would be enough he knew! He just had to kill this goblin, Take the antidote potion he had in his pouch and this fight would be over!!
["Wind Shield!!"]
Lurk held up both his arms facing towards Grandir, the spear crashing into the wind wall in front of him. The cave turning into a torrent of wind as the two spells slammed into each other. Lurk poured enormous amounts of mana into the shield. The spear pushing forwards but only a small amount of wind made it through, causing only a tiny wound to appear on Lurk.
Grandir recoiled in horror. The goblin stared at him its purple glowing eyes filled with hate and disgust, he was already grabbing the potion with his unwounded hand. This was not how it was supposed to happen! How can this goblin be this strong! that shield had so much mana in it!!
Lurk gritted his teeth, his eyes flaring up once more and he waved his hand violently towards Grandir who was preoccupied with the potion in his hand.
"[Tempest Disk!!]"
Grandir screamed as the disk of wind blew forward towards him. Seeing this goblin standing in front of him, A Halo of light behind it, the purple glowing eyes, its rage it could barely contain. This goblin... No ! This monster!!!
Grandirs arm was sliced off easily by the disk at it blew past him. The potion falling onto the ground along with his arm. Grandir could no longer hold himself up. The pain from his arm being severed, only but a gentle tickle compared to the sudden explosion in his side. He screamed out in horrible pain as he doubled over. Blood spurting out from his shoulder. He could only barely make out the monster goblin standing over him through his manic eyes.
{"You are a monster"}
Grandir could barely comprehend, this goblin had just called him a monster. He screamed in pain, Alex was barely conscious as his body could simply not take it anymore, but he was still screaming. Bellie was struggling to fend off Vorm and Aurk grabbing her and holding her down onto the ground, her eyes panicked seeing her comrades down on the ground.
Lurks purple eyes stared at the Dark elf, but Lurk did not kill him. He waited, and watched as the dark elf screamed out in pain.

The goblin stared at him its purple glowing eyes filled with hate and disgust, he was already grabbing the potion with his unwounded hand. This was not how it was supposed to happen! How can this goblin be this strong! that shield had so much mana in it!!Lurk gritted his teeth, his eyes flaring up once more and he waved his hand violently towards Grandir who was preoccupied with the potion in his hand."Tempest Disk!!"Grandir screamed as the disk of wind blew forward towards him. Seeing this goblin standing in front of him, A Halo of light behind it, the purple glowing eyes, its rage it could barely contain. This goblin... No ! This monster!!!Grandirs arm was sliced off easily by the disk at it blew past him. The potion falling onto the ground along with his arm. Grandir could no longer hold himself up. The pain from his arm being severed, only but a gentle tickle compared to the sudden explosion in his side. He screamed out in horrible pain as he doubled over. Blood spurting out from his shoulder. He could only barely make out the monster goblin standing over him through his manic eyes.{"You are a monster"}Grandir could barely comprehend, this goblin had just called him a monster. He screamed in pain, Alex was barely conscious as his body could simply not take it anymore, but he was still screaming. Bellie was struggling to fend off Vorm and Aurk grabbing her and holding her down onto the ground, her eyes panicked seeing her comrades down on the ground.Lurks purple eyes stared at the Dark elf, but Lurk did not kill him. He waited, and watched as the dark elf screamed out in pain.
