Adventures Of A Goblin



His goal as of current, is to prevent a case like that from ever coming to be.

That's why he needs to end the fight between him and Mammon as fast as he can before his presence gets discovered by nature and then sent to the spirit realm.

Spoon-feeding Mammon with more Mana is not going to help Orun avoid the outcome he is so desperately trying to prevent.

'From here on, I have to make it a physically oriented battle while making sure to prevent excessive contact with him" Orun thought, bringing his thoughts together and making his way toward Mammon who landed on the ground.

From how Mammon scrapped off Orun's mana with the black aura, and also how Mammon absorbed Orun's ray, it shows that the condition for Mammon using his ability has to do with touch.

He might be wrong, but there is no way he is going to neglect the first possible option.

Orun got down to Mammon before he could fly back up. He grabbed onto a nearby fallen tree and used it to whack Mammon's body.

The tree made contact and tossed Mammon's body into a situation where he crashed on the ground, away from Orun.

Situations like this can prove to be very tricky. Not being able to use mana based attacks to directly attack Mammon, and limiting physical contact to its lowest point possible.

Those are dangerous conditions placed on Orun, but he is trying to find his way around them.

Like for example, the tree that was used to hit Mammon's body. If it was a normal tree, the expected result would be the tree shattering into pieces once it made contact with Mammon's body.

But that did not happen, and for a good reason at that. Once Orun grabbed the tree, he was quick to coat the whole body of the tree with his mana, to strengthen the base of it, and turn it into more than just a tree.

Orun was very discreet about it because there is a chance that Mammon would suck the mana out of the tree once it touches him.

However, without him knowing the truth, Mammon would expect the tree to crash into him, under the assumption that it would do no damage to his body.

His expectation however was betrayed when the tree succeeded in moving his body from the spot he was standing on, all the way to a spot he did not expect he was going to find himself in.

Orun threw away the tree and started devising other means to attack Mammon with.

The tree attack is a one-time means that will have its secret exposed to Mammon once it has been used.

Orun heard a blast coming from opposite his direction, at a far distance to add. He assumed it to be the place where Theron, Monryck, the four elven elders, and Dilya are fighting with Cerberus.

He had both of his hands raised in that direction and cast a circle that enveloped the sky where they were.

"Highest tier elemental creation. Efreet, Salamander!".

Orun called out his skill, bringing out the same form of Efreet and Salamander from the circle, and descending their presence in the midst of the ongoing battle against Cerberus.

"That should help them even the playing field"

Orun said, about to turn his attention over to his opponent.

An abrasive kick cane from the side, and bashed Orun through the woods for as long as possible.

The kick came to a halt, and Mammon, the controller of the kick, distanced himself from Orun.

"Distracting yourself from your opponent is not a wise choice to make".

Mammon said, with his eyes on Orun who was picking up his body from the aftermath of the kick.

"Why should I have to worry? When I have someone like you as my opponent".

Orun got up and dusted his body, before dissing Mammon with a downgraded remark.

'Damn it. I let him absorb another part of my mana'.

He felt that same tingling sensation of his mana drained out of him when Mammon's kick touched his armor.

Apparently, the ability does not involve skin to skin touch alone. His armor also carries mana in it, so it shouldn't be too surprising to see that the greed ability would work on it as well.

Mammon with his speed, made his way down and appeared before Orun with his clenched fist aimed at his face.

Orun bent his body to the back and thrust out his right leg to kick the direction of Mammon's fist away from his face.

He turned his body and made another attack on Mammon. He used his leg as a feint by making it seem like he was going for his leg.

Mammon bought the bait by moving to protect the part of his body where Orun's leg was aiming for.

When he saw that Mammon had bought the bait, Orun changed his motion of attack by using his hand to jab Mammon in the neck, the Adam's apple to be exact.

With his hand on Mammon's Adam's apple, Orun wrapped the rest of it tightly on his neck then went ahead to deliver a powerbomb choke slam that landed him back on the ground.

"Never underestimate a spirit king".

Orun warned with his hand still wrapped around Mammon's neck, even after he fell him to the ground.

Orun dragged Mammon's body to the ground, making sure that his body scratches through the hard parts of the surface area before letting it go.

He released his hold on Mammon's neck and set his eyes on the arm. Orun used his speed to move himself to the place where Mammon's arm lay.

He grabbed it with his right hand and yanked the arm right off the rest of the body. Detaching it from the shoulder down.

He did not wait to hear the echoes of cries that he knew Mammon would not make, as he could feel no pain, or so Orun guessed.

Orun raised his right hand and sprouted out vines from underneath the ground Mammon was laid on.

He made sure the vine penetrated through every joint in Mammon's body, sparing not a single one of them.
