Chapter Eleven: Lord Slayer

Kenjiro arrived beside Danno who pushed Kenjiro back immediately as the Lord hit his fist towards them, but he missed as Danno jumped out of the way and pushed Kenjiro out of the way.

When the Goblin Lords fist hit the ground it broke through the rock ground and his whole fist was underground. But it managed to pull it out of the ground while it glared at Danno and Kenjiro, while its face was twisted into pure hatred towards them.

Danno helped Kenjiro off the ground and Kenjiro accepted the help as they saw the Lord stand at its full height.

It's body is dark green like other Goblins but it's height was doubled the height of a regular human. It's body was like a wall with the amount of muscles, it's arms and legs like the trunks of trees and it's chest was like a Boulder. Although every muscle was well defined and looked well trained. It's face was like a square with tufts of hair at the top and dark brown sideburns that stopped at the sides of its mouth.

"I'll distract it, you try and get some good hits on it." Danno said to Kenjiro and before Kenjiro could try and say something, although he wouldn't be able to, Danno was already in front of the Goblin Lord with speed that although kenjiro was able to see, was not used to it so it was difficult for him.

Kenjiro took out the sword on his back as he circled around the Goblin Lord in search of what could be considered an 'opening', although he had never fought before so he wasn't sure what could be considered an 'opening'.

Danno meanwhile engaged in a fight against the Goblin Lord. When he arrived in front of it, it still had its arm in the air from when it got its arm off the ground.

So he took this opportunity to get into a stance quickly, his sword pointing behind him on the left to the ground. His left leg back straight out on the ground, his right leg close in front of him slightly bent as he leaned forward.

With both hands on his sword he struck. With his speed he quickly drew his sword in a diagonal line across the stomach of the Goblin Lord.

The sword didn't break when it hit against the Goblin Lord but Danno was feeling some serious resistance as he tried to get the sword in as deep as he could.

With a grunt of effort he managed to get the sword in deeper at the last moment and then the sword shot out of the side of Goblin Lord.

While Danno was doing his attack on the Goblin Lord, it didn't even try to resist knowing it would be useless. Instead it went on the attack and brought its fist up and clenched it before bringing it down.

When Danno's attack finished the Goblin Lord had already brought his fist down close enough so that Danno couldn't avoid it.

Danno saw the fist coming as his sword was now completely in his control with the momentum of the attack now gone, he brought it back to himself in a defencive position.

His sword now above the right side of his head defending across him from the fist. His stance changed as well with his left leg now in front slightly bent and right leg back and his body straightened to deal with the force of the impact.

The fist clashed with the sword and Danno almost buckled under the pressure that was being out on him. His sword was shaking and he knew he couldn't do this forever, and this was only one fist of the Goblin Lords. Wait! Danno thought. Just one fist?!

That was when instead of looking up at his sword resisting the fist he looked in front of him and saw a giant green fist right in front of him. There was no dodging or defending against this one.

The fist hit him and he went flying to the other side of the nest, some bones in his body broken. His sword flew out of his hand and got stuck in the ground in front of, but off to the side, of Danno.

The fist that was pushing against the sword then went into the ground to create a hole in it from the strength.

It took its fist out and then marched slowly and angrily towards Danno. When it's hulking body finally got in front of Danno it went to pull back it's fist to attack Danno was beginning to black out.

How pathetic of me, Danno thought to himself, getting taken out by one hit. Time seemed to be moving in slow motion for him as he watched the Goblin Lord about to shoot out his fist to crush him in one blow.

But before it could it screamed in pain or that might've just been annoyance at being interrupted so many times.

It stopped its attack and took its hand to the back of its neck, and when it pulled its hand back around it saw it covered in blood.

It growled in annoyance and turned around to see the nuisance that attacked it. When it did it saw what attacked it.

A pesky human holding a sword with its majestic blood on it. A small and skinny human that wasn't wearing any armour, the only notable thing about him was the mask on his face something the rest of the humans didn't have and the Snow White hair that had bits red in it, it's blood.

Kenjiro looked at Goblin Lord in front of him, he knew he should've stepped in earlier but he thought Danno had it handled. Clearly he didn't, but Kenjiro would help him now.

He brought his sword down by his side and flicked as much blood off of it as he could. He didn't know if this would make sense to anyone else, but he guessed the blood would act like a lubricant and he didn't want the sword to slip out of the Goblin Lord because of that, he wanted it to stick in there and deal some real damage.

He had managed to cut the back of the Goblin Lords head, but clearly that wasn't enough. But although he wasn't sure, he thought he was seeing an opening right now.

The Lord roared again and charged at Kenjiro, who once he was sure of it, dodged out of the way of the Lord by rolling and ran towards the other sword.

He wasn't sure how to wield two swords, hell he wasn't sure how to wield one sword, but… two weapons equals double damage. It was stupid thinking and he knew that, but right now he didn't care.

He grabbed the blade that was stuck in the ground and with a bit of effort he managed to get the longer iron sword out of the ground.

He held both swords by his side with the blades pointed forward and charged at the Lord that was now turning around to him.

Seeing that it didn't have to chase the pesky human as he was coming towards it, he stopped and brought its leg back for a kick.

Kenjiro brought the swords in front of him in a X shape and jumped just before the kick could reach him.

He then slashed the swords in the X motion at the Lord's chest and although it wasn't deep and it was only some blood leaking out and some muscle being cut it got the Goblin Lord to try and grab him in the air.

But it didn't seem to understand gravity much because by that time Kenjiro had dodged its hands, although looking up he saw it was barely, and he was on the ground.

He then took Danno's longer sword that was in his hand and stuck it where he saw the opening.

It was small, only a line big enough for a sword, but it was deep. And that was all Kenjiro needed to use it. It was a wound Danno made when he first attacked, Kenjiro noticed it bled more than other areas, so this was the opening he was using.

He stuck it in and heard and felt as the flesh of the Goblin Lord squelched when he shoved the sword in the wound. Although the sword was pointing upwards inside of the Goblin Lord as Kenjiro and any normal human would be too small to stick it in properly. A spurt of blood shot out from the wound and onto Kenjiro's shirt as he stepped back a bit to get into position.

The Goblin Lord roared in pain at the sword that was deep inside of it and tried to take the sword out, but unfortunately for it Kenjiro was faster.

With two hands and a tight hold onto the remaining sword he was using he turned it so he was using the flat side of the sword and held it up like a bat.

Then with all his strength he brought the sword forwards like a bat and hit the sword inside of the Goblin Lord making it go deeper inside of it.

The clang of the metal against metal rang out throughout the nest and the Goblin Lord struggled in pain as the sword was almost all inside of him all the way up to the handle of the sword.

It's body started to shake as it started losing strength, clearly the sword had hit something important, although that wasn't surprising considering the angle it was and how it was a longer then normal sword.

In a final act of defiance the Goblin Lord let out one last roar as it tried to kick Kenjiro. It's hulking leg shot out in a final act and hit Kenjiro dead on, although the power behind it was weak, so he got out of it with a few bruises and being flung to the ground.

The reason Kenjiro managed to get hit, even though he was able to avoid the other attacks, is because he was dealing with the rebound of hitting his sword against the other one. And it sent shocks through his body that stopped his movements for a bit.

But after that final kick the Goblin Lord fell to the ground slowly dying in pain as the sword moved a little inside of it because of its heartbeat that was getting slower and slower.

Kenjiro got off the ground and looked around at the damage caused from the fight, to no surprise there was a lot of damage, the Goblin Lord had run into its own hit after charging at Kenjiro and there were holes and indents in the ground from where it hit and where it walked.

He looked over at the kids and, although they were scared, they were hurt by the fight or the Goblins that took them to the nest.

Then Kenjiro looked over at Danno and saw him passed out against the edge of the nest, his body was covered in cuts from his tumble there and his left arm was bent in places it shouldn't be.

Kenjiro hurriedly scrambled off the ground and hurried to go over to Danno, making sure he was alive. When he got there he didn't know what to do or how to check a pulse but he could see his chest moving up and down, which was a clear sign that he was alive.

Kenjiro knew he couldn't leave him here and he didn't know if he should move him, but it would be better if he did move him as the sooner he got him back to the village the better his chance at survival.

So although it pained Kenjiro to do it, and he knew it would pain Danno, he shook Danno's shoulders a little to wake him up.

Danno groaned and grimaced in pain as he slowly opened his eyes, seeing the concerned eyes of Kenjiro through his blurry vision. He looked around and saw the corpse of the Goblin Lord. The kid actually did it, Danno though as he chuckled a little, making him wince in pain as it hurt him.

Danno then looked back at Kenjiro, who he could tell was asking for guidance on what to do. "Get me out of 'ere, kid. Make sure to take the 'ittle ones as well, they're the reason we're 'ere after all."

Kenjiro nodded before he turned around and with the difficulty of never doing it like this before, struggled to get Danno on his back. Something that probably hurt him more but he just laughed it off.

Kenjiro walked over to the kids and held his hand out for one of them to grab as Danno spoke with difficulty. "Come on, kids, we're going home."

One kid grabbed Kenjiro's hand and the rest started a train of them all grabbing each other's hands as Kenjiro led them out of the nest and into the forest to find the rest of the people that came there with them.

=========================================

Just a little author's note to say I'm sorry, looking back it seems like such a shit fight. But I'm still learning. I can write fights against similar sized opponents or smaller ones but bigger ones are always difficult, as well as ones with no weapons.

Also the rebound thing I was on about before Kenjiro got hit. I'm pretty sure that's a real thing, it's not just something I made up for this world. But I couldn't find the right term for it, so I called it a rebound, even though that can be taken as a penalty for doing something you're not supposed to do in this world. It's not.

And the source for the previous paragraph: 'Just trust me bro'.

I wrote that not while I was writing that fight, but that was like a week ago, but I just got an idea that I'm definitely using if the story goes as far as I want it to. Trust me, if I get better at writing fights and make it that far in the story, it'll be the best thing ever.

If I ever get that far in the story, oh my god just thinking about it makes me get hype.
