Chapter fifteen: The old giant lord Morgrun

Kaijo makes his way out of the house and heas toward the smith. He finds the house and sees smoke coming from it. He enters the house and sees a giant blacksmith. The room is filled with utensils and occasionaly weapons and armor for giants. "Hello, traveler what can I make for you?" he asks him. "Can you fix these swords please?" Kaijo asks handing him the old barons swords. "hmm, I recognise these swords from the old baron but if it´s you that uses them it should be fine." He says taking the swords with his fingers and starting to reforge them. He hammers and clanks them together in a short amount of time with precision. "Here you are!" he says handing them to him. "Item acquired: Old barons swords (red and blue)" "Thank you!" Kaijo says and leaves the store. He needs to leave the village and find the old giant lord Morgrun. The giant is deeper into the forest near the mountains. He lives in ruins and is guarded by his corrupted giants. Kaijo uses the soul lantern in his left hand and the red old barons sword in his right while having the blue old baron sword in his sheath ready to be drawn. He follows the paths through the mist and kills some undead. He slowly makes his way to the ruins Morgrun resides in. He finds the ruins and a barrier surrounding it. He uses the branch to enter. The fog lifts but still there is a dark atmosphere in there. He proceeds further in past the sleeping giants. He enters a throne room and finds Morgrun. The path behind him is closed of by a golden fog wall. "Pitiful undead. I commend you for making it this far but I´m afraid this is where your journey ends. Let it Morgrun the giant lord who takes your life!" Morgrun says standing up from his seat picking up the giant sword next to him with a wooden handle made from the same material as the giant tree and Kaijos branch able to use sorceries. He towers above Kaijo. He wears some armor and has bright glowing yellow eyes. He also wears a sort of crown on top of his head. "Too bad that I´m unkillable!" Kaijo tells Morgrun. "I´ll put you down as many times as I need to." Morgrun answers. A healthbar shows up and the fight begins. Morgrun launches a vertical slice down toward Kaijo. Kaijo dodges and runs in. Morgrun is quick and steps back slicing at him again. Kaijo dodges that too. Now with some distance in between them Morgrun casts a sorcery. It sends vines after Kaijo. Kaijo uses the blue old baron sword to launch Ice magic projectiles to kill the vines off. The plan suceeds and Kaijo can get further in. Morgrun swings his sword again. Kaijo dodges again and uses the froststomp the old baron used and can freeze Morgruns sword and feet in place. He gets in under Morgruns legs and starts attacking him reducing his hp to 95%. Morgrun breaks free of the Ice and stomps on Kaijo. Kaijo dodges and charges up a powerful strike hitting the other leg. This causes Morgrun to get shaky. Kaijo launches another powerful strike and the giant topples. Kaijo can attack the head which is free now. He slashes with his red old baron´s sword hoping to inflict bleed. Before Morgrun can stand up he finishes with a critical hit in Morgruns face reducing his hp to 80%. Morgrun stands up and his eyes flash red and he launches powerful and fast swings and finishes off with a strong sorcery sending vines trough the ground at Kaijo. Kaijo runs away from the vines. The vines shortly stop at the edge of the throneroom barely missing him. Kaijo makes his way back toward the tired giant and launches a blood pojectile at Morgruns face. "Hp:55/60". The attack inflicts bleed and instantly reduces Morgruns hp to 60%. Morgrun screams in pain and covers his wounds with plants to avoid more blood loss. Morgrun covers himself in another coat of wooden armor. He raises his sword skyward and two forest giants with giant halberds and armor jump in. Morgrun sits back on his throne covers himself in a barrier and rests slowly recovering hp and stamina. Kaijo uses froststomp to freeze the giants in place and launches blood projectiles at one of them inflicting bleed. "Hp: 40/60" reducing it´s hp to 50% and toppling the giant. Kaijo rushes in and delivers a critical hit through both eyes killing him off. The other giant breaks free and attacks Kaijo. Kaijo can dodge and gets closer the giant swings again but misses him. Kaijo launches a powerful strike at it´s legs and attacks a couple times and he topples. Kaijo lets his stamina recover and delivers a critical hit reducing it´s hp to 40% boosted by the ring. The giant screams out in pain and Kaijo launches blood and frost magic projectiles at his face inflicting bleed and freezing the face and finishing him off. "Hp: 55/60" Morgrun stands up again having recovered his hp to 70%. He attacks with vines and comes closer swinging his sword. Kaijo uses the gods armor and divine retribution tanking the hits. "Hp: 10/60" The armor shatters and he is buffed. Kaijo launches a cross slash projectile of both blood and frost. He hits him in the head and breaks the wooden mask which slowly regenerates. This stuns Morgrun and Kaijo heals himself back to full and recovers his stamina and mind after using all those skills. "Healing flask:3" Morgrun gets back to his senses and swings his sword around again. Kaijo dodges getting closer to the legs again. Morgrun stomps multiple times switching his legs around. One last stomp sends vines at Kaijo and Kaijo uses the gods armor, divine retribution and powerful strike and blows throught the wooden and metal armor revealing flesh. He attacks the flesh which is partly coverd in moss and wood. He reduces his hp back to 60% and needs to recover after that blow. Morgrun uses this opportunity and grabs him. He also covers him in thorny vines and squezes him inflicting bleed and then throws him away reducing Kaijos hp to 15/60. Kaijo heals up and wants to go back to the same leg. Morgun attacks managing to keep Kaijo at bay. Kaijo dodges inward to the leg but Morgun stomps again. Now having learned Kaijo back up and charges up his cross slash blowing through the wood and launches more projectiles. "Hp:5/60" Inflicting both bleed and frost toppling the giant reducing his hp 45% . Kaijo heals himself back to full. "healing flask:1" Kaijo manages to destroy the mask but can´t deliver a critical hit. Morgruns eyes flash red but Kaijo slams his blue sword into the ground dealing massive damage to the blade but freezing Morgrun in place. Kaijo can get and charges up a powerful strike blowing through the ice at the leg reducing his hp 35%. He charges up another powerful strike and reduces his hp to 25%. The giant topples and the ice shatters reducing his hp to 5%. Kaijo launches blood pojectiles at him finishing him off or so he thought. Morgruns dead corpse is devoured by vines and plants coverin his body taking control of him startin a second phase. Kaijo uses froststomp to freeze the vines and gets in closer slashing the tendons causing the giant to topple the vines continue moving and attack Kaijo. Kaijo kills off the vines and throws a couple of bombs at him lighting the vines on fire reducing it´s hp to 80% further reducing hp by 1% every two seconds for thirty seconds straight. Kaijo dodges around waiting out the fire. The fire reduces it´s hp to 65%. Kaijo runs around launching a couple ice projectiles reducing it´s hp to 55%. The blade breaks and Kaijo two hands the red blade. He use the gods armor divine retribution and powerful strike tanking through the vines dealing massive damage reducing it´s hp to 35%.
