Life In Another World 44 Demon's Blade

"Wha—what is wrong with that Goblin?" He said while darting his sight to their party leader.

"I don't know... But one thing is for sure; this Goblin subjugation is much more troublesome than it should be." Gellis solemnly said whilst activating his defensive skill.

"[Sword Defense.]" Gellis murmured the keyword. Then a glittering silvery light enveloped his whole being; occasionally a sharp aura flickered around him.

"Toa, don't act rashly; there is something weird about these two Goblins." Glancing at him, Gellis added. "Be extra more careful." With that said, Gellis went forward and faced the unknown Goblin in front of him.

"... Ahem, Human, I hereby proclaim that you guys won't leave this place alive." Hobgoblin said. Then suddenly, a huge suction force was being made at his right palm. "[Demon's Blade.]" A dark and wicked sword aura was formed; into the thin air.

*??????~*

A sound of vibration rang to their surroundings. As Hobgoblin slashed the air to test the strength of his summoned weapon. "Mm, not bad. I guess that person wasn't lying after all," He said, whereas his murderous yellowish eyes flashed with killing intent.

"Come, human!" Hobgoblin taunted Gellis with his jeering high pitch-voice.

As he watched the scene unfold, Gellis was left in bewilderment when he heard the Goblin started to talk, It wasn't his first time seeing a Goblin spoke. However, it was his first time seeing a low-grade Goblin speak the native language of this world.

"... You, what are you?" Gellis exclaimed his surprise; however, upon seeing the Goblin didn't mind his question as it advanced. Gellis braced himself for the upcoming danger.

"Tsk! So what if you can speak? A Goblin will always be a Goblin!" Gellis shouted, at the same time reminding himself that there's nothing new even if this Goblin in front of him spoke.

"[Aura Slas.h.!.+]" Scintillating silvery light shrouded his long-saber. Then a tremendous momentum concentrated at the edge of his weapon, releasing a ma.s.sive silver slash.

*?????ℎ.*

The wind shriek as his sword slashed, severed its way to the Goblin.

Seeing the impending danger, Hobgoblin smirked at this and waited for the Gellis skill to come closer.

"Hehehe, allow me to show you, humans, how feeble you are." The Goblin said as he swung his Demon's Blade horizontally.

*?????!*

The sword aura shattered into oblivion as its lingering force was blown into the enclosing forest.

"... What? Ho—how?" Gellis uttered in disbelieved. However, upon noticing his opponent's reaction. Hobgoblin didn't let go of the chance to deliver a heavy blow.

Toa who was watching the scene in silence; noticing that the strange Goblin was about to a.s.sault their leader who was caught off-guard, he shouted in alarm. "Gellis! Snap it out!" He said. Still, it was a tad bit too late for his warning.

As the Goblin advanced with the Demon's Blade in hand, he swung the blade with an immense momentum that disrupted the atmosphere. As the wind shriek in a horrid tone.

An enormous three meters length wicked aura slashed Gellis. "Gaaah!"

Gellis shouted in pain. Thanks to his sword defense, his wounds weren't that deep. However, it was still a decisive injury with his body cut from his left shoulder until his waist. Gellis' eyes flashed in rage.

But before he could stabilize his footing, a sudden internal force drilled upon his body.

"AAAH!" Gellis screeched in agony whilst his body fell on one knee.

"Gellis!" Tao shouted in irritation. "d.a.m.nit! Where did the others go?" Saying that Toa turned around and looked to the approaching group of people. "Hey, Hurry up! We are in deep trouble!"

Hearing his voice, the tanker of their group dashed forward.

"What happened?" Poko asked Toa. Nevertheless, when he saw their party leader was dropped on one knee. He didn't wait for Toa's response as he advanced forward with bloodshot eyes.

"d.a.m.nable Goblin! [Taunt!]" Poko roared in fury while activating his skill. But he wasn't done yet.

"[Iron Body!]" With the combination of his taunt skill. That attracted the nearby enemies, and his defensive skill the Iron Body.

Poko utilized his years of experience being their tank even if his mind went blurry in madness; his instinct was still there.

"Tsk!" Hobgoblin clicked his tongue out of frustration, though he seems to be domineering, as of the moment. But when his borrowed power that came from the demon lapsed, he won't have anything to defend himself to the unsought of Gellis group. Therefore, he wanted to finish at least one of their members before retreating.

Despite everything, it did not fall to the future that he envisioned.

Komoblin. Who was watching the fight leisurely when he saw Hobgoblin's prowess. However, upon the arrival of a new adventurer. He became agitated. "What now?" Komoblin said while he resisted the urge to charge forward to Poko. Still, his strength wasn't enough to bypa.s.s the skill effect.

"Gaaah! d.a.m.n humans!" Komoblin screeched his temper as he went forward; gripping the iron mace long handle; both hands, as Komoblin advanced and smashed his mace to Poko's gleaming body.

*?????!*

Poko blocked the upcoming a.s.sault with his towering s.h.i.+eld. Then he activated another skill. "[s.h.i.+eld Bas.h.!.+]" As he restrained the center of his gravity, Poko smashed his s.h.i.+eld to Komoblin's skull.

The Goblin flew five meters away from his original position. As its dark-blue blood runs through its forehead. "Tsk! Still alive, huh, what a tough fellow." Poko clicked his tongue in disbelief. It was his first time encountering a low-grade Goblin who survived his s.h.i.+eld bash.

"Careful, there is something off to those two," Toa said as he went forward to mend their leader's wounds.

Taking out an amber liquid from his pouch, Toa sprinkled the content to Gellis' injuries. "Stay still, what happened? How come you couldn't withstand the pain from that Goblin's attack?" Toa said in confusion. In his point of view. Gellis' wounds were not deep enough for him to be in this state.

"Demon... It can't be wrong. A dreadful aura of a demon was shrouded from that Goblin's blade." Gellis stuttered in pain. "There is no way I would forget the devilish aura of a demon." While saying that his eyes flashed with thick killing intent.

"Are you sure?" Toa asked solemnly if their leader couldn't think straight. It was his job as their vice-leader to act rationally. He can't miss this urgent information that could change the flow of their quest.

"Yes, I am sure!" While saying that Gellis forced himself to stand up. "Hehehe! This is getting more interesting! A demon! There is a demon inside this forest!" He proclaimed his insanity. It was a taboo word from this party, they would never bring the word 'Demon' in front of their leader.

Because of his past that still haunted him until this present time. Gellis has always been training like a mad dog just for the sake of a one day; he wanted to slay a demon and to crush the shackles of the past.

Staring at Gellis, who became mad, Toa grabbed a small piece of silk fabric and threw the content to Gellis' face.

Then a soothing feeling engulfed Gellis' soul, calming the turbulent ripples inside his head.

"Huu~ thank you; Toa, if you didn't use the lull powder just now, I might charge like a crazed beast," Gellis stated his thanks as he sucked a mouthful of air to stabilize his chaotic breathing.

When Gellis' wounds sealed up, and his mind went tranquil the other members of his party ultimately caught up.

Meanwhile, on the different side of the forest, an impending crisis abruptly occurred.
