Chapter 14 – Awakening ~First Part
Eto dismounted his horse and stared at the hordes of Goblins heading towards him.
Numerous familiar green-skinned Goblins are lined up at the front with Goblin Archers and Mages mixed up inside. Behind them stood light brown-skinned Goblins with bodies twice as large as normal Goblins, the Hobgoblins. They hold a club in their hands, pushing the normal Goblins forward. And the hordes of Goblins not only covered the plains before Eto, but also the forest far off from there.
“Eto! Should we also get off our horse? Or is it better for us to fight while riding the horse?”
Kohaku’s voice was shaking as she asked. It was inevitable. As not only Kohaku, anyone would be nervous facing numerous Goblins in front of them. The fact that she hasn’t lost her fighting spirit even after seeing that showed how Kohaku has a talent as a warrior. Eto then glanced at Amou and Kohaku with a troubled face.
“Let’s see… I can only say that there were more Goblins than I had expected. But for now, stay in a place where you can easily escape to the squad. And if you have leeway, please hunt the Goblins that are able to pass through me. That is only if you have leeway, of course. And if the numbers are too much for you, don’t hesitate to retreat.”
However, Kohaku couldn’t understand what Eto intended by giving them that instruction.
“Un? What do you mean by that? Do you mean you are planning to deal with the Goblins alone?”
“To put it simply, yes.”
“Wait a minute! I don’t want something like when we fought against Manticore to happen again!”
“I know. However, the situation and my psychological state are different from that day. Right now, I am going to fight because I have to.”
As soon as he said that, Eto ran into the horde of Goblins.
AD
“Eto!”
Although Kohaku tried to stop him, Eto never halted his feet. He casted Battle Spell, which strengthened his physical ability, and stacked Strength, Haste, and Magic Force on top of that buff. Not only that, he also enchanted his sword with lightning magic, a magic descended from wind magic, which not many magicians mastered. The one-handed Mithril sword imbued by lightning shined, attracted the eyes of Goblins. And attracted by that light, the Goblins that ran in the front headed directly towards Eto.
Eto lifted his sword and swung the blade filled with magic power to the side, causing about 10 meters of sharp lightning to extend from the sword and cut the Goblins within range one after another. Of course, there is no way he stopped just like that. Eto then swung the lightning enchanted sword right and left, slaying every Goblin that went towards the area in an instant with the impact of the lightning.
“Amazing…”
That’s the only word Kohaku can utter to describe the scene before her. It goes without saying, she knew that Eto was strong. He has also shown the lightning-imbued sword to them. However, she never imagined that buffs and enchantments could allow him to achieve this level of power.
“Did you know about this, dad?”
Kohaku asked Amou while still keeping her eyes on Eto’s battle.
“Aa, I know. But, regarding Eto, I can only say that ‘the tomorrow’s him is stronger than today’s.’ He has always been training his sword technique and magic day by day. In other words, he is now in a completely different league from himself half a year ago. That’s why dad is also surprised.”
Amou was also amazed at Eto, who slaughtered the Goblins with his lightning magic.
“However, I’m sure it is tough even for Eto to continue such a battle for a long time. First, I think Eto intends to reduce the momentum of the Goblins. And after that, he likely is thinking to buy time for the squad to finish their battle. That’s why, let’s go to a place where we didn’t disturb him and reduce the number of Goblins to help him.”
“Un, understood!”
With a Mithril dagger in her hand, Kohaku replied to Amou with spirit.
