Weaker Than A Chicken

On the area where Jay, the demon, and the injured wood elf was...

"Chicken Lord, what are my chances if I fight this guy?" Jay asked the Chicken Lord as he tried to calm himself down.

"The only thing I can sense from this guy is that he is weaker than that guy from the tournament. But you should still be careful since this demon might have underhanded tricks up his sleeve."

After hearing the reply of the Chicken Lord, Jay immediately used Featherstorm.

"Oh? A chicken wants to fight me? Interesting." The demon smirked as he waved his right hand and repelled the burning feathers heading towards him. Then after that, his tentacle like hair suddenly stretched out in eight directions and the tip of each tentacle faced Jay.

'Demonic Heatwave'

The demon exclaimed as volleys of fire came out from his tentacle-like hair.

Seeing that he did not have enough time to dodge or deflect the attack, Jay decided to use Feather Mirage to mitigate the effects of the spell the demon used. The moment the volleys of fire hit the feathers, a scorched smell suddenly filled the air. The smell of burnt chicken feathers.

"Damn. I forgot that using chicken skills related to feathers repeatedly will turn me naked." Jay sighed as he looked at himself. A featherless chicken with pinkish skin.

"Bwahahah!!!" The demon laughed really hard the moment he saw Jay's appearance. But this short distraction of his was a very big mistake.

A golden sword was suddenly plunged through his chest from his back.

"Damn you..." The demon swore as he looked at the wounded wood elf behind him that plunged the sword on his chest. He then opened up his wings and used it to slap the wood elf away.

~~Whap...

After the wood elf got slapped away by his wings, he forcefully removed the sword stuck on his chest to prevent further injuries. But the moment he was about to do so, he suddenly saw hundreds of eggs around him. Chicken eggs...

"What the hell..." This was his last line of thought before those chicken eggs turned into explosive bombs and blasted him apart.

...

"Jay, please refrain from using any egg-related skills frequently. Pretty please?" The Chicken Lord pleaded to Jay as he saw those chicken eggs explode around the demon and hundreds of guts splattering around.

"Don't worry. I will just use the Egg Bomb skill as a finisher. But seriously, I did not think that this plan of mine worked..." Jay replied as he thought about what he just did.

Normally, the Egg Bomb skill was just supposed to release a single exploding egg from his ass. But this time, Jay decided to experiment a bit and tried using Chicken Storm. But instead of letting the chickens hatch from the hundreds of eggs, he turned these hundreds of eggs into exploding eggs and scattered them around the demon at the same time he used Feather Mirage.

"Fine then. I guess it's fine as long as you kill those plane invaders." The Chicken Lord said as he sighed.

...

"What the hell just happened?" The wounded wood elf, Prince Aerendyl, questioned himself as he looked at the demon guts that splattered around. He did not know when it happened, but a human-sized chicken suddenly appeared and helped him deal with the demon. Besides the destruction of the forest, the other thing he was really sad about was that his precious golden sword that his father gave him got destroyed due to those exploding eggs.

"Prince Aerendyl!" Doreah, the female wood elf shouted as she and hundreds of wood elves arrived. In truth is, these hundreds of wood elves were the five 20-men squads that hunted down Jay but failed to chase him. The reason why they came here was because they heard the shout from the demon before.

"Sister. Brothers..." Prince Aerendyl tried to speak but failed, and instead, coughed up blood.

"My prince. Please rest up for now and let us deal with the rest." A wood elf with a muscular physique said as he carried the unconscious prince at his back.

"Now, what should we do about that chicken, or human to be more precise?" The wood elves had their own thoughts of the matter since some of them saw Jay transform into a human or a chicken. They were also not sure if they should just let him be even if he helped them kill the demon.

...

"Damn elves. Screw it. Time to bail." Jay thought to himself as he quickly fled from the hundreds of wood elves surrounding him. In order to get out of their encirclement, Jay used Chicken Storm this time and made the hundreds of chickens perform Feather Mirage.

Bawk Bawk Bawk Bawk!!!

Bawk Bawk Bawk!!!

"My eyes!" One of the wood elves exclaimed as a random feather pricked his eye.

"He's running away! After him...blehh.. blehh.." Another wood elf exclaimed before accidentally swallowing a feather that randomly entered his mouth.

...

After an hour of running, it was already around nighttime when Jay managed to run away from the wood elves and got out of Fisnar's Great Forest.

"Whew. That was really tiring. But I have to keep moving. And another thing I just remembered..." Jay said to himself as he took out a large blob of monster essence from the storage orb. This monster essence was the one Lord Marvin gave him during the tournament back at Greengarden.

[Activate monster essence: Midnight Warhorse?]

'Activate'

After doing so, the blob of monster essence transformed into the Midnight Warhorse. Jay went back to his human form before mounting the horse.

"Let's go! Hiya!"

Jay patted the side of the horse to signal it to start running. But Jay forgot a very important thing when riding horses, and it was to hold on tight. He almost fell of the Midnight Warhorse the moment it began running. The only reason why he did not fall of was because the Midnight Warhorse had a bit of intelligence and slowed down the moment it saw Jay about to fall down like an idiot.
