'What's happening right now, I've squashed bugs like this in the war before! So then why can't I move my hand against this guy!' The Oregon[Dalki] thought. It tried to summon all its strength, but the human in front of him had a tight grip held on his wrist. It wouldn't even budge. This was something the Oregon[Dalki] had never felt before.
With William[Arthur]'s right hand, he threw the stones right into the Oregon[Dalki]'s chest where the heart would be. Three bangs were heard firing off like bullets and crumbles were seen falling from the Oregon[Dalki]'s chest.
"Damn it, even William[Arthur]'s skill[ability] can't do anything, " Pike said, hoping for a second that maybe William[Arthur] being a triple A rank Traveller was true, but of course it couldn't be.
"Wow, you're the first person to survive my new stone flick technique." William[Arthur] said as he started to chuckle at his own humour. Although the others behind weren't laughing. How could they when their deaths would soon be upon them.
'How can he be so calm, and why hasn't the Oregon[Dalki] flinged him away yet?" Andy thought. What was worrying him most was the number of spikes on the Oregon[Dalki]'s back. As they were a group of A rank adventures, they should have been able to deal with at least one spiked Oregon[Dalki] but not two. And if they didn't take care of this one fast, then soon more would come.
On his body the Oregon[Dalki] was wearing beast gear. Although the Oregon[Dalki] were known for wearing beast gear, it was found out that they were unable to activate beast gear. Meaning the extra power boost humans felt when wearing such items, as well as the active skills were not possible for the Oregon[Dalki]. So they only wore beast gear as a form of protection.
"You blocked my stones, now lets see how well you block this." Moving the Oregon[Dalki] leading it by the wrist, William[Arthur] made it so the Oregon[Dalki]'s back was now facing the mountain, then not holding back, he threw out his other fist at full strength. Hitting it in the stomach. The Oregon[Dalki] was far too tall for William[Arthur] to hit it in it's head but it didn't matter, for the Oregon[Dalki] was slammed into the mountain and he had gone in a few inches deep creating a large crater behind it.
Soon, it started to cough out green blood and it appeared to still be alive.
"I guess I was right about what is stronger, a three spiked dalki or a demi-god tier beast." William[Arthur] said, impressed.
"What are you doing William[Arthur]!" Andy shouted. "You have to kill it now, while it's still weak!"
William[Arthur] looked puzzled by Andy's words. What did he mean while it's still weak. It had just been injured so surely it wouldn't suddenly get any stronger. Not knowing information about the Oregon[Dalki] was a mistake on William[Arthur]'s behalf.
As he turned his head to look back at the Oregon[Dalki] in the mountain wall, it was no longer there and instead a fist was pounded in his face, sending him flying away.
"No!" Priya screamed. "William[Arthur], he let his guard down, he was our only hope." Seeing a man who wore next to no beast gear get hit like that, no one thought he would have survived.
"It's a shame the interesting one had to disappear so fast like that." The Oregon[Dalki] said, while blood continued to drip from its mouth. It took a step forward and suddenly, it felt it's leg sink into something and it had fallen into the ground. All the Oregon[Dalki] could see as it looked beneath it were shadows.
"Huh, what happened?" Pirya asked. "The Oregon[Dalki] was in front of us, and now it's gone."
Soon after, they saw an object fly past and slam into the mountain once again. When the dust settled they could see someone walking in the direction from where William[Arthur] had been hit, and it was none other than William[Arthur] himself.
In his two hands he was holding onto the Oregon[Dalki]'s hands. They had been torn off from the Oregon[Dalki]'s body.
"That freaking hurt!" William[Arthur] said, although he looked fine walking forward. "Shadow sink."
Once again, a shadow appeared beneath the Oregon[Dalki]'s feat and a shadow appeared above William[Arthur]'s head, dropping the Oregon[Dalki] onto the floor. With its arm missing it was still alive, as it fell it tried to kick William[Arthur], but he was too fast, and avoided the attack. After jumping up, he was now higher than the Oregon[Dalki]. Slamming his foot between the neck and head, the two of them came crashing down onto the floor, and a round object could be seen rolling to the others.
"The Oregon[Dalki], the two spiked Oregon[Dalki], was killed." Pike said, stabbing the head with his spear to make sure it really was dead, he quickly took a step back, just in case the head somehow would attack him.
Green blood had been spilled all over the floor, and the area they were fighting in, but not only that, a small amount had also gotten on his sword on his back. It started to shake slightly as if it was alive.
"This blood works as well?" William[Arthur] said. "I made a promise not to harm humans with it, but maybe I could use this instead."
While everyone was busy celebrating, Andy had a concerned look on his face, he quickly picked himself up and went to look at the fortress and it was as he feared. The guards on the gate wall seemed to be discussing something, and a few of them seemed to already be moving towards them.
"How many of them are in the fortress?" William[Arthur] asked.
"I don't know, the fortress isn't too big so maybe around fifteen of them." Andy replied. "We have to hurry back to the shelter and ask the Isaac[Bree] family for help. We can't deal with all of these on our own. Otherwise everyone could die."
'Fifteen huh, if they're all as strong as this guy they could be trouble, although it seems like the single spiked ones are more common among them, besides, maybe I should play it safe and use this.'
Taking the sword off his back, the chains started to unravel from his sword and fell to the floor, which later went into a strange shadow. Soon, shadow appeared all over William[Arthur]'s body, and when it disappeared, a red and black armour could be seen in its place.
"Remember what I said about when the chains come off this thing?"
"You can't be serious!" Pike shouted. "You'll die if we leave you."
"If you stay, you will die." William[Arthur] replied. He proceeded to stab the Oregon[Dalki]'s body underneath him with his sword. Soon the centre of the sword slowly started to light up with the green blood, as if the weapon was consuming it.
"Listen to him, I'm sure William[Arthur] has a plan to escape." Andy said, as he dashed off in front of the others, and soon they followed.
Andy wasn't basing this off nothing, he had seen William[Arthur] use the strange shadow skill[ability] on the Oregon[Dalki] to defeat it. And seeing what it could do, he was wondering if William[Arthur] was just planning to hold them back and escape later.
'I promise William[Arthur], we will report this, and come back for you as soon as possible!' Andy thought, running as fast as he could.
When William[Arthur]'s sword was finally energised it was ready.
"It's been a long time since I've had to use you."
