Fierce Battle Part 2!

Reign dropped down to his knees after the victory, coughing violently he glanced at Shadow who got up, injured but still in fighting condition, he went to Reign to check on him.

"Hey man, how are you?"

"I'll be ok," cough, "go help the others, I just need a moment to rest, I'll be right with you."

Reign continued coughing and looked at the other 2 battles taking place, Tank was injured in multiple places by the kobold, but the kobold was as well, its tail looked grotesque and broken while his right arm was bloody and had a big cut on it, one made by Tank's shield.

Even though injured and bloody, Tank, on the other hand, was in better condition, all of the wounds he suffered were superficial cuts and only one was more serious, and that was a stab wound on his abdomen. The kobold managed to pass his defense for a moment and stabbed him, in return he used his shield and tried to break its arm, retreating, the kobold saved it but still suffered a huge cut by its sharp edge.

Wolf on the other hand was much worse, multiple cuts were on his body, and 2 shallow stab wounds could be visible on his stomach and left leg. The kobold luckily suffered for them, 2 arrows were lodged in its body and his tail was cut off in the middle.

Shadow immediately raced to Wolf, his opponent was stronger than Tank's and his injuries were more severe, even though Beast tried his best to help, the arrow at the beginning of the fight drained almost all of his mana and he was forced to use the normal ones which the kobold leader managed to dodge or deflect except the two in him.

Shadow drew close and uses his usual tactic of throwing a knife at his opponent, the leader already detected him and thus manages to block it with the spear. That, however, turned out to be a mistake, with his tail gone the kobold's center of balance was easily disrupted, doing a hasty deflection like that made him stumble and Wolf, well, he didn't let such an opportunity go to waste.

Immediately sprinting at his opponent, Wolf lifted his sword to the side and used his ability, the flames showing on it were weak, just a thin layer shrouded the sword, but it was still better than nothing. He slashed at the kobold, turning his hips to the left and using the full strength his body could achieve. He also used his new skill.

{ Muscle pump }

{Description: By using this skill, the user makes his blood boil and flow faster, pumping his muscles with a great amount of strength, making his attacking power and strength go up by 25%}

The drawbacks of the skill were not light, boiling blood, and making it pump faster was a great way to put a huge amount of stress on the heart, but Wolf didn't care at this moment, he only needed one good hit and he would deactivate it. Channeling his mana to the max he made the sword as heavy as he could. Right before the moment of impact, it reached a weight of 9kg.

The kobold knew it was too late to do anything so he stabbed his spear into the ground and uses his forearm to prop it against the attack.

Bam!

A loud sound was created the second Wolf's greatsword hit the defending kobold's spear. Sparks exploded from the hit and flames blazed from the sword as Wolf gave it his all for this one hit. The spear immediately bent and the kobold screamed in pain as his arm was broken.

Crack!

The spear cracked in the middle, the wood used to make it was crude and couldn't withstand any longer. With a loud sound, it broke and Wolf's sword plunged deep inside the kobold's arm that was propping the spear.

Crying out the kobold punched him with his other arm and immediately followed up with a kick to his already injured abdomen. Wolf was knocked back, his arm releasing the sword and blood spurting out from his abdomen.

Stab

Shadow got to the kobold and stabbed his dagger deep inside his right side, managing to puncture his lung. A low sound of an exhale escaped the kobold's mouth as his back straightened out from the pain. It moves its injured arm backward and managed to hit Shadow with his elbow. The strength of the kobold was immense and the attack was strong enough to push Shadow back and drop him on his knees.

The kobold was dying, the amount of blood it had lost from his tail and arm was huge, coupled with the lung that was pierced meant his final moments were near. With painful steps it went towards Shadow, he was closer and the kobold felt less threat from him.

Swish

Right at that moment, an arrow flew toward it. With his injuries, the kobold forgot about Beast and that proved fatal. Looking ahead it glared at him before the arrow pierced through his forehead, cocking back his head and killing him.

Thud

The body of the kobold dropped to its knees, head back and its arms lowered, it slowly collapsed.

Seeing both of his teammates dead, the final kobold panicked. The huge human in front of him already injured him greatly, now that he was alone the other enemies will definitely join and kill him. It feinted a stab, making Tank stop and ready his shield, but right at that moment, the kobold turned around and ran. It didn't get far though, as the somewhat recovered Reign stood in front of him.

With heavy breathing and blood flowing from his forehead, he bought his sword up and got ready to face the injured kobold. Behind, a loud shout was heard as Tank suddenly charged at it, it was the same charge he tried at the beginning of the fight, only now it was deadlier.

Dodge and he will be attacked by the human wielding a sword, face the attack and he will be heavily injured for sure. The kobold paniced, not knowing what to do. Tank drew nearer while Reign slowly moved towards it, it had to think of something or it will die.

Its eyes suddenly sharpened up, it changed the way it held on the spear, holding it in reverse now. With a loud cry, it threw the spear at Reign and immediately jumped at the side, dodging Tank's attack, or so it thought.

Tank immediately slowed his charge down when he saw the kobold changing the spear hold, which gave him enough control to spin around and use his mace to hit the kobold from its left side.

Crack

A crack was heard as the mace hit the kobold right below the shoulder, not only breaking its arm but a couple of its ribs too. It cried out in pain and fell to the ground. Giving it its all to ignore the pain, it used its right hand to prop itself up. It fails, however, the arm slipping on the grass, causing it to fall again.

Reign drew closer to it, the spear it threw at him was not dangerous, it was slow and Reign easily dodged it. With its tail and arm broken the kobold was no longer a threat, Tank went in front of it and lifted his mace. The kobold looked up and tries pleading for its life but the language it spoke was vastly different from humans. All Tank heard was hissing, thinking the kobold was cursing at him he gave a loud shout and hit the kobold on the head.

Bam! Crack!

The attack immediately cracked open the skull, causing brain matter and blood to splurt out from it. With anger, Tank hit the head again, just to be sure that he will kill it.

Bam!

"It's dead Tank, was that really so necessary?"

"That was super necessary." ( A: yeah, ufc reference there.)

Both of them hugged one another and went toward the others.

Shadow was up on his feet while Beast was next to Wolf who was lying down in pain, the last kick he suffered was quite a painful one.
