We need to talk.....

(Aaarrggh) 

A loud scream came from the creature in front of them.

"He's still alive; this isn't over."

"How is that possible?" I looked at Mary with shock in my face at what she just said.

"The [Demon Race] can't die from physical or regular magic damage and is resistant to almost every element except light."

"So he is weak against light, so what now? We have neither [Cleric] nor [White Mage] with us; Mary, do you have something?".

"We can just keep hitting him until he is dead".

"Did you not hear what Mary just said?".

Eric and Guts were arguing as they kept hitting and dodging the creature's attacks.

Maybe I have something that could help them.

[Consumables]

[Potions]  [Runes]  [Talismans]

Let's try [Runes] first to see what we get.

[Generating Available Runes]

[Fire Runes](500) 

[Water Runes](500)

[Wind Runes](500) 

[Earth Runes](500) 

[Dark Runes](1000) 

[Light Runes](1000)

There you are: [Light Runes: Change your physical and magic damage to the light attribute and reduce the damage received by the dark attribute in half (duration: 3 minutes)].

This will do. After purchasing the rune, I put my left hand inside my pocket and pretend to search for something. That's when I activated the inventory and put the rune into the palm of my hand.

As I was holding the rune, I immediately knew how to use it. You just need to squeeze it in your palm and think of activating her.

POV Eric

A powerful aura surrounds us. I got tense for a split second, but then I saw my sword glowing bright yellow, and I knew immediately what this was—an enchantment.

I know Mary didn't have this enchantment in her arsenal of skills, nor did Ari, so the only one left is our new member Isaac. Whatever he did, I'm glad he is with us.

"Guts prepare for a feast."

"Finally, we are talking".

"[Shield Rush]" with the use of my skill, I immediately changed into the creature and pin him up into a nearby tree. After that, I stepped aside only to see a huge sword go right past me.

"[Savage Slash]"

(AAArrrggghhh)

A deep wound formed in the chest of the creature, but with that came a loud scream. But this one was different; this one had a mix of pain and something else. But what?

"S**t, we have multiple [horned rabbits] incoming."

Ari brought light to my doubts, so that's why he screamed. He was calling for help.

*******

POV Isaac

When I heard what the archer girl said, I knew why one of my quests was to help them survive, so I intend to do that.

"Leader, I have a plan. Let me and the archer girl fight the mobs, and you, Mary, and Savage finish that creature."

"Alright, Ari, you and Isaac will fight the [Horned Rabbits]. Remember the rules; don't die both of you."

""Got it""

Archer Girl and I responded at the same time while moving in front of the party to intercept the rabbits. She is hopping from tree to tree, so if I get overrun, I will be the only one getting trampled.

When we got to the position, I saw them and heard the horned rabbits. There were at least twenty or thirty of them. Well, this is not going to be easy, so let's get started.

"[Rock Golem]"

I summoned my golem in front of me, so he would take the brunt of the damage from the charging monsters, but when he was summoned, I feel something that he did without my permission. He used a skill called [Treat], which is a form of taunt, so now all the rabbits that were charging madly are now focused on my golem. That's pretty good.

"[Multishoot]" arrows descended to the rabbits from the tree to the right of me, so i know where she is now.

"[Fireball]....[Wind Slash]"

I unleashed spell after spell into the rabbits, and my golem in front was going on a rampage, swinging his arms left and right. With each swing, a rabbit went flying high up, only to fall hard into the ground.

Like that, at least four minutes have passed, and I'm getting tired and my headache is increasing rapidly. I don't think I can hold on much longer when I hear a notification inside my head.

[Random Quest Complete]

As soon as i heard that, the rabbits that were attacking my golem stopped, confused of what are they doing here, they immediately began to scatter rapidly into the forest.

"RAAAghh"

"Shut up, guts. I know you're happy, but don't yell too close to my ears."

"Ha..ha..ha, your just jealous that I did the last hit."

"yeah, yeah"

With the rabbits now gone, Archer Girl and I went back to the party. As I was approaching, I saw the aftermath of the battle; some trees and floors had claw marks, and others had giant sword marks.

I can also see that Guts and Eric's equipment was torn, and they had some superficial wounds.

"Both of you stop; we need to go to the guild as quickly as we can; those wounds are corrupted, and if you leave it like that, you both will die or worse."

"Worse?" I asked Mary as I was approaching her.

.

"They could turn into [Daemons] that are the servants of the [Demon Race]".

"I see"

"That's why we have no time to waste; let's go to the guild."

""Got it""

They were starting to walk back along with the archer girl, who was supporting the savage guy, when I heard another notification inside my head.

[All quests have been completed, initiating transfer.]

The world came to a halt, and I saw a door that was growing from the ground next to me. The door opened, and I could see my room in my house, then a flash of light.

When my eyes recovered from the light, I saw that my room lights were on. That's weird; I didn't leave them on.

"Isaac, we need to talk".
