Two Against the World (3)

They were now facing the first wave of Pruwal Goblin Cavern once again.

5 easiest goblin in the dungeon. All of them wielding a dagger although they were all [Fervor] as appraised by Avia.

Arceede started to shooting with his crossbow.

"That's enough."

He started to attack slowly and Avia stopped him when it reached a certain point.

The process repeated till 5 of the goblin got their own portion of attacks.

"Done."

With the signal, Avia rushed without his spear. He attacked one of them while the other 4 were aggroed by Arceede.

Without equipment, Avia as a civilian was not that much different than another level 1 adventurers.

He got some stats from leveling up his appraisal skill and some hidden achievement.

Avia was now stealing the goblin's dagger with some martial artist trick. Once stolen, the goblin's aggro went stronger and rushed to him furiously.

Arceede took over the furious goblin aggro and Avia rushed to another goblin.

They did it till all the goblin became weaponless now.

After that, both humans ran away from the location and continued to the next wave.

Avia was running while holding 5 daggers in his hands.

As they were closer to the place of the second wave, Arceede put his crossbow into his spatial inventory.

He unsheathed the sword from his hip and readying a stance while running beside Avia.

4 goblins, the second wave of the dungeon was in front of them. But, although it still needed more meters before they came into contact, Arceede gripped his sword stronger than before.

He slashed to the back of Avia. His sword collided with a dagger.

The assassin ambushed them!

After successfully prevented the ambush, Arceede quickly kicked the goblin and stole its dagger.

The kicked goblin flew away and collided with the first wave of goblins. It gave both humans some time to focus more on the 4 other goblins in front of them.

Avia dropped the dagger from his hands and equipped his spear.

Arceede who was coming from behind picked the 5 daggers. He conditioned the sheathe on his hip to sheathed his sword on his back now.

Thanks for the time given by the collided goblin, he has enough time to did it without rushing so much.

Avia was now 1 vs 4 the coordinated goblin in front of them.

'Damn.. I can't help but be amazed by his footwork whenever I watched him.'

Arceede just let that thought in his mind while continued his run.

He was now holding 6 daggers in his hands and follow the spearman in front of him.

"Done! 1 hit each!"

Avia shouted after finishing his job.

What was he doing?

He has successfully disarmed all the goblins!

Arceede gave back the 6 daggers to Avia again. He unsheathed his sword and rushed to the 4 goblins.

Like what Avia has ordered to him. He one slashed one by one and each of them was all pushed and stunned caused by poise break for a few seconds.

In that meantime, Arceede picked all the sword, dagger, and 2 bows on the ground.

The 2 humans continued the run afterward. Avia held 6 daggers and a spear on his back, while Arceede with those weapons he recently picked in his hands and sword on his back.

They rushed to the 3rd wave. A big area with pillars around.

Once they arrived at the place, Arceeded summoned his crossbow. But of course, it had a 10 seconds delay before reappeared.

After he did it, he threw all the weapons in his hands and sheathed his sword once again.

Arceede was now in front of Avia. He was running while making a defensive stance.

A familiar voice echoed in that big area.

/ YOU DARE!

Hearing that voice, Avia was changing his direction to the side. He split from Arceede.

Arceede cast a skill right away.

Lesser Demerit Area!

A full swing from an armored hobgoblin suddenly welcomed the uninvited guest.

BLAST.

Arceede blocked the attack with his sword and flew several meters away.

'Ugh! It still is shocking whenever I got it.'

Arceede flew till the entrance he came in.

BRUAK BRUAK

The sound of him collided with the ground could be heard clearly.

Once he successfully stopped, he recovered his HP with potions.

The other goblin from previous waves has appeared in his vision too. His line of movement was really blocked from 2 sides now.

ROAR!

A long roar came from the armored hobgoblin. All the goblin and hobgoblin in the area were now veiled with red auras.

A synchronized roar came from all the monsters in the area following the current event.

Some of the goblins suddenly rushed to Arceede like they just got some supplies of asteroids.

Arceede dodged the unarmed attack from the goblins with some sidestepping. He did it while sheathing his sword on his back again.

Not long after that, his crossbow appeared from the thin air. He equipped it and gave a nasty smirk.

'Checkmate.'

Rapid Shots!

Pew pew pew pew.

Consecutive attacks hit some of the upcoming goblins.

He used another skill to finished the leftover waves.

Spread Shots.

PANG!

It was a perfect shot with each spreading shot hit every single goblin.

'Damn! Perfect!'

It was really a satisfying feeling. But amidst the joyful event, he shifted his direction directly to Avia.

Avia has circled the hobgoblin party and disarmed the club and bow from its original owner.

ROAR!

Avia got a hit by the armored hobgoblin.

'Damn! It really is a cheat!'

Arceede witnessed the hobgoblin suddenly teleported in front of Avia and gave him full swing.

ROAR!

Avia was recovering his HP with potions while witnessing a transformation occurred.

The armored hobgoblin increased its body size slightly. The veiled red aura around him was like being sucked to its skin. Its skin was now colored red.

The other 5 hobgoblins were roaring too. There was no significant change like the armored one, it was just that their aura became thicker and their body became quite bulky.

In this heated event, Arceede was also heated.

Without him knowing, he and Avia had pretty similar thoughts.

'Okay! We will succeed this time!'
