Adventures Of A Goblin



Orun stretched out both his hand forward and posed it as him drawing an arrow. From the pose came fire arrows fired off consecutively at Mammon.

Mammon evaded the arrows, using his hand to bounce off the ones he could not evade.

He took both his feet off the ground and lept upward in Orun's direction.

He had his long claws set out to lash at him. Orun did not move away from his position and instead faced Mammon's claw head-on.

He caught the claw with his left hand, and then he used his right hand to deliver a body blow to Mammon.

Mammon simply ignored the body blow and moved his body in a twisted way, exchanging the stand his body was facing to the opposite.

Doing that, allowed him to gain control of his hand that was earlier held down by Orun.

Mammon from both of his hands cast a black sinister-looking aura. He coated his palm with the aura and clenched his fist before using it to punch Orun in the face.

The fist connected to Orun's face, sending him crashing to the ground, a long mile away from where he started.

"What was that". Orun asked, getting himself up from the ground and going after Mammon.

The impact of the black aura on his face was not physically painful, but more of a gut feeling that something in him was slowly being chipped away.

Orun brushed the feeling aside as he had no time to invest in thoughts and assumptions.

Almost getting to Mammon, Orun clasped both of his palms together, and from it he fired off rays of deep red energy from his clasped hands, directing it at Mammon.

Mammon instead of evading the incoming energy, firmly stood his ground with both of his hands stretched forward.

The deep red energy got to Mammon, and it all got sucked inside his hand, with no damage dealt to any of his body parts.

"Let me guess, Demon Of Greed, ability to invoke greed through the absorption of what is not yours. The same way a part of my mana was chipped off using the greed ability".

Orun seeing Mammon absorb the ray attack he just fired, was quick to assume the kind of power he is using.

The feeling he felt when Mammon hit him with the black aura, and what he just did now. Everything points to his ability to have some sort of connection to the definition of greed.

"Yes, you are right. But no mistake, for that, is not all I am capable of doing".

Mammon abruptly reached out his hand toward Orun, and he then fired off a black sinister ray in his direction, the same kind that Orun fired at him.

The difference between the two rays lies in their size and color. Mammon's ray was twice the size of what Orun fired.

When the black ray was about to touch Orun, he had his hand raised, with his palm made flat.

Orun used the side of the palm, abruptly bringing it down on the black ray, and splitting it in two.

The black ray got split and got sent off in two directions, with Orun's palm and his body at the center of it.

"My ability also allows me to multiply anything I absorb from my enemy by two. Greed, that is what it is". Mammon boasted, going after Orun when the black ray had dissipated.

"I see. Thank you for the information". Orun said, also making his way toward Mammon.

Even if Mammon did not reveal the effect of his ability to Orun, he was eventually going to find that out, but only in the long run, through tests and verification.

Mammon telling him, saved Orun the time that he would have wasted on it.

Though, one might question what Mammon was thinking about, to have revealed such an important message to his enemy.

This was Mammon's way of saying he is not afraid of Orun, nor does he feel threatened by him or anything he does.

They both went at each other, with the scene looking as if they were going to clash at the center.

Orun offset the scene by hastily moving himself behind Mammon and delivering a kick to his side.

Mammon was sent flying away according to the angle the kick came from.

He did not want to risk a direct confrontation against Mammon, only to have the mana sucked out of him.

It is not that he was worried about his own mana draining. In his Spirit King form, Orun is directly connected to nature, and as such is able to use an infinite amount of mana.

He also gets stronger with every second that passes with him in his spirit king form.

There is a catch to having such extraordinary powers, and mana level. The catch has to do with the time limit set on the skill.

If he uses it for too long, nature will take its effect on Orun and enact the rules laid down on all spirit kings that say; a spirit king is not to wield their power for their personal use".

What Orun is doing as of right now, is going against that rule. He has the privilege to do so due to the fact that he was a being that resided in the physical realm before he became an elemental spirit king.

That is why he is able to wield the powers of a spirit king in the physical realm.

But, his wielding the power only goes as far as the time limit set for when nature catches wind of his presence in the physical realm.

Using the spirit king mode for an extended period of time will alert the other spirit king of Orun's presence, and then nature itself will become aware.

When that happens, Orun will be involuntarily dragged back to the spiritual realm where he would be forced to resign himself to the rules guiding all elemental spirits.
