Adventures Of A Goblin



Mammon turned its head over to where Elmon was standing. His expression looked totally blanked out as a result of bearing witness to the duel between Orun and Mammon.

It wasn't a fight that could be thought of as a respectable matchup. For the entire time of the battle, Orun had heavily dominated the flow of it, and also steering the outcome to be in his favor.

All Mammon was doing is take continuous hit from all sides and resort to make empty threats at Orun.

He did not understand how Mammon who is in a difficult spot could still have the time to make threats on someone who is undaunted by its presence.

Elmon did not think that it was possible to see Mammon be rendered so helpless at the hands of another.

He also was not expecting Orun to be powerful enough to have the advantage over Mammon.

Elmon was in the resting area when Orun was fighting against the four Elven elders.

Even though he did not directly watch the duel, Elmon was still able to hear when Orun was announced the winner.

From there, he knew Orun had to be very powerful to have won against the four elders.

What he did not expect, is for him to be powerful enough to treat Mammon as a beginner.

It was as if he was seeing himself in Mammon, while Orun represented the female opponent that bested him in the arena duel.

Mammon from where he stood, wanted to shout at Elmon to get his body moving to open the gate instead of just standing still and doing nothing to help the situation.

It tried to signal to Elmon by making use of its eye gestures. Elmon was not paying attention to Mammon's gesture as he was too busy with getting himself surprised and fascinated by Orun.

Seeing that Elmon was not getting any of its signal, Mammon stretched out its hand In Elmon's direction.

The stretched out hand turned into its hazy form and made its way to Elmon.

The hazy form got to Elmon and then immediately wrapped itself around his body.

"What are you doing!".

Elmon in a panic mode, recovered from his shock and hurriedly asked Mammon in its hazy form.

It was as if Mammon was trying to strangle Elmon's body by wrapping its hazy form around him.

That however was not Mammon's intention. It needs Elmon to open the gate, so why the hell would it kill him when his task has yet to be fulfilled.

Elmon tried his best to resist Mammon's hazy form on its body, but all resistance from him proved futile.

"And where do you think you are going".

Orun had moved himself to the gate and stood in the way before Mammon could get to the gate with Elmon's body.

"I will not let you hinder my path".

Mammon splitted the hazy form on Elmon's body. It turned the splitted form into a physical Mammon and hurried it to attack Orun.

To prevent any interruption, it made another physical form from its hazy body and sent it to attack Dilya.

The two hazy form is to keep the both of them busy and buy it enough time to have Elmon open the gate.

With two physical form drawn out of the hazy smoke that was stuck on Elmon, the mass of the smoke had grown considerably smaller.

The smoke was not the only thing affected from the creation of two Mammon clone made out of the hazy form.

It also took a massive toll on the total amount of mana that Mammon now has left in its body.

At its current pace, it would not last minutes before its hazy form disappears and goes back to where it came from.

But that is okay. Mammon was not worried about the amount of mana spent because it will restore it all once the gate has been opened by Elmon.

Orun was caught up in fending off the clone made out of the hazy form of Mammon on Elmon's body.

He was put off guard by a slight margin. Orun did not expect Mammon to still have mana reserve enough to make two of it and not disappear forever.

Orun now understood that he had greatly Underestimated what the hazy figure of Mammon was capable of.

Even if it is not the true form, it is still a form created by an entity backed up by a long year of history and legends about it.

He should have expected more from such a being with years of history to its name.

The Clone attacked him by thrusting out its fist in Orun's direction. Orun shifted his body to the back and was able to escape being caught by the Clone.

He made his counter attack on it by thrusting out his right leg and using it to kick the clone's jaw.

He took his other leg off the ground, bringing about him raising his body above the ground.

Orun brought his body back down, and landed it on the clone to pummel it to the ground.

The Clone was pushed to the ground, but did not get destroyed as Orun had intended it to.

It turned into its hazy form and escaped from Orun. Gathering at Orun's side, it turned back to its physical form then proceeded to attack Orun.

Orun caught its hand before it got to him. Holding unto the hand, Orun flipped the Clone off the ground and slammed the body back to the ground.

The Clone dispersed it's hazy body off the ground and turned back into a physical form.

'This is getting no where'.

Fighting the Clone any further was a pointless action for Orun to resort to.

Whatever it is that he did to it, the Clone just ends up regenerating its body by turning it into a hazy smoke.

It is the same as his fight with the other Mammon, except this one had no thought and looked lifeless. Whereas, the other Mammon could still make speeches and use body language to express itself.

Even if Orun could eventually wear down this clone through continuous attack to make it exhaust its mana, it still won't be worth it.

The only reason he resorted to such method was so he could use it on the Mammon with emotions, to have it make use of all its mana and end up disappearing without achieving the goal of getting the gate open.

That was Orun's intention, and that intention is not going to be fulfilled by defeating the Clone who is only a means of distraction for the other Mammon to carry out its goal.

Orun left the Clone alone and decided to aim for the hazy figure of Mammon that is with Elmon.

His path was blocked by the Clone turning into its hazy figure and drifting to Orun's front before turning back into a solid form.

As if it knew that one of it would be no problem for Orun to handle, the clone splitted its body into several Mammon clone, leaving at least five of them to go up against Orun.

Orun did not stop in his tracks, going ahead to face all five of them head on.

They attacked him when he got to them, with one of them coming toward Orun from the side.

Orun wanted to ignore them and push his way through toward the Mammon that was with Elmon.

His plan however could not be achieved as a result of the tenacity of the five clone to see to it that Orun does not get anywhere near Elmon.
