ASSAULT

The soldiers were finding it difficult to quell the disturbances that Decorum was causing. They evacuated civilians while trapping the goblins in place preventing them from moving to other place to wreak havoc. Koniko stood on top of a building and drew her bow. Flaming arrows manifested around her. She unleashed a torrent of fire that engulfed goblins, their screams echoing through the streets as they burned alive. The others realized they were being attacked by a sniper and quickly located her hitting her with their own magic attacks. She jumped off the building she was in and summoned waves of flame that crashed against goblins reducing them to smoldering ashes. She landed Infront of the soldiers.

" Don't worry I'll deal with the gobkins. You focus on keeping the people safe" she sadi. A horde of goblins came running at them, snarling and weapons raised.With a flick of her wrist, she sent fireballs hurtling through the air, obliterating goblin squads without looking at them. The soldiers were to stunned by her sudden appearance to speak.

" Do you think she's single?" One of them asked his colleague only to get elbowed. Koniko just smiled and ran off to fight the remaining foes.

On the other side of the city,Sharone's blood magic ripped through the battlefield like a scythe, tearing goblins apart with tendrils of dark energy. She conjured geysers of blood that shot into the air, raining blood shards down on her enemies like a grisly hail. Her magic flayed goblins alive, their skin stripped from their bones as they shrieked in agony. She soun her weapon tearing through them like paper as she pressed forward so easily eliminating them in seconds. The goblins found their numbers dwindling to nothing in the blink of an eye as a red blur flashed through thier ranks leaving mutilated corpses in it's wake. She stoped noticing some explosions in the distance.

Bodies lay everywhere as Sol stood tall whip in hand as he defended his property from the goblins. He stood elegantly as always,his subtle make up, perfectly toned skin and rings on his manicured hands made him very easy to spot as he stood out from his surroundings that were either broken down or scortched. His shop however had not a single blemaih as he was determined to protect it at all cost. The goblins closed in. He lashed out with his whip which a burly goblin caught and pulled away. With a snarl it attempted to bisect his head with a downward slash of his ax e but sole stoped it with his foot.

" I was going to go easy on you but it seems the only language you brutes understand is voilence." He said putting his hands into his pockets.With a swift kick, he sent the first goblin flying into a nearby wall, its crude weapon clattering to the ground. The second goblin lunged with a scream, but the he dodged and countered with a knee to the chin that sent it flying and crashing into a nearby market stall, destroying the vendor's wares.

The goblins swarmed, but Sol moved swiftly, striking true time and again. Jumping to avoid the fire attacks the goblins used against him. He swung his feet creating energy arcs that sent goblins flying into nearby buildings, flames engulfed a nearby cart, and energy blades sliced through armor and into the stone pavement. The man leapt and spun, runes on the soles of his shoes glowing bright, as he wove a complex pattern of attacks.

The goblins stumbled back.

" Oh no you don't." He said jumping and spinning in midair landing on the furthest one slamming his head into the pavement.

"If you darlings leave now without paying for damages it wouldn't be fair now would it" He said rais g his leg, blood dripping from it and a sinister smile playing on his lips. He moved so fast the goblins couldn't follow his movements.He kicked one goblin in the chest so hard it crushed his ribcage and sent him flying into a nearby fountain, another tried to attack him with a fire spell from behind but he vanished appearing behind him and taking his head off with a spinning kick, the heaf crashing into a stack of crates and catching fire. The remaining decided to come at him at once. Sol saw through thier plan and sighed. They simultaneously launched massive fireballs capable of destroying that part of the city. He raised his leg and stomped on the ground so hard that the ground under him cracked and the ensuring shockwave redirected the fireback on the attackers causing an explosion as their bodies went up in flames. Sol smiled glancing at his shop looked away and looked again. He saw a crack on one of his windows and rushed to inspect it when out of nowhere a goblin with a mace raised was about to strike him down. Several blood spears impaled him.

" These insolent.....how dare the ruin my beautiful shop" Sol cried. Sharone walked around the body and stood behind him.

" I knew you were hiding something but I never knew you were this strong a fighter."

" I don't like violence unless I'm compelled to. It's not pretty and I'd rather not get my hands dirty." He replied

Sharone looked at the blood dripping from from feet. From the first time she had seen him shed sensed something was off. It wasn't that he had an significant amount of Arcana but the fact that he was stealthily concealing his energy without leaking even an iota of his power.

" I have some questions to asked when this is over" she said as Sol got to his feet. She surrounded his shop with a barrier.

" I will avenge you." Sol said runinng his hand through his hair.

Elsewhere Lin's wind magic tore through the city like a hurricane, lifting goblins into the air and sending them crashing into buildings. She summoned maelstroms of debris that swirled through the streets, shredding goblin flesh and bone. Her magic shattered windows, uprooted trees, and sent roofs crashing down on top of her enemies. Along the line she ran into Yukio who was trying to save a group of trapped civilians and taking advantage of the stormcloud above the city redirected lightning which fried all the goblins in their way. The holy knights evacuated the people as Lin joined up with Yuki. Together they defended the people who were taking shelter in the church.

Sasha's spatial magic warped reality itself, teleporting goblins into the walls of buildings or flinging them into the air like ragdolls she created singularties that caused them to implode under pressure. She created localized singularities that sucked goblins into oblivion, their screams silenced as they disappeared into the void.

" This is the best" she said as she brutally massacred the foes who weren't lucky enough to get killed by her magic. She laughed menacingly as she tore them apart.Her magic distorted the fabric of space-time, creating illusions that confused and disoriented her enemie who tried to counter attack only for them to be ripped to shreds

The battle raged on, with the four heroines unleashing their full fury upon the goblin army. Their magics clashed in a spectacular display of violence and mastery, leaving destruction and death in their wake.

By morning the disturbances had been quelled. Some members of Decorum had been captured for questioning while others had escaped. Sharone and the others met up in the castle and found d Adriana in no better condition than they were. They hugged each other .

" Ok before anything I think it would be best if we took a bath." Koniko smelled herself and held back the urge to puke.

" Agreed "she said.

" Don't mind if I join you" Yuki said as shed accompanied Lin to the castle to check on the state of things.

" Yes thatd be the best" Sasha said,looking at her chest. Yuki began to have second thoughts but Sasha out her hands on her shoulder and led her to the bathroom as the others followed behind.
