While the apprentices and the monsters were still in shock, a man jumped off a tree in front of them, and shouted,
"Ayo, were you guys doing something important? Come get me if you want some!"

Esdras has already hidden away from the point of the impact and sneaked behind the monsters towards his target.
It was because the orc wanted to hide it was a bit further off from where the bulk of the monsters were concentrated at. It can be said that it brought its own demise.

Esdras controlled his silver ring and it elongated into a thin but deadly staff, the staff had a needle-sized sharp edge at the tip.
