Chapter 11 - Exhilarating Battle!
-----
Boom!
An enormous fireball impacted Noah's feet, as he managed to jump away in time, he had no time to relax at all, there were two Goblin Mages behind him and several arrows raining from the sky by the Goblin Archers that protected them!
Flash! Flash! Flash!
The arrow's sharp tips were reflected by Noah's Crimson Claws, however, he was rather worried about Iris, as she was left against two Goblin Warriors.
Noah decided to glance at her for a slight of a second, realizing that she was still kicking, covering herself on her Demonic Fox Phantom Skill and enhancing her speed and strength, she was giving a hard time even to the two Goblin Warriors that possessed the enhancement-type Skill.
"GROOOAAH!"
One of the Goblin Warriors wielding a large mace tried to smash Iris' entire body like a pancake, however, Iris jumped and even ran over the log-like arms of the Goblin Warrior, making sure to seep her poison into it and then jumping straight to the eyes!
"GRRRYAAAA!"
The enormous Goblin Warrior felt immense pain, groaning in pain as it covered its bleeding eyes, however, Iris kept slashing it and draining its blood, while the other Goblin Warrior could hardly catch up to her speed without having to damage its ally in the process!
Boom!
In that little time, the poisoned Goblin Warrior fell directly into the ground, as Iris leaped like a vicious vixen towards the next one, biting its nose off and drinking the sweet blood coming out of it!
"GRAAAAAAARRR…!"
The Goblin Warrior tried to grab her, but she quickly jumped right in time, acrobatically moving around the large and muscular body of the creature, and raining it with slicing attacks, seeping it with poison, and slowly killing it while draining its blood!
Noah smiled proudly of Iris's talent, the more she fought, the more she was showing off her true capabilities, and it seemed that her ability to gather blood for energy and her constant use of Demonic Fox Phantom was enough for her to fend for herself for the moment.
Noah kept running around, evading the arrows as some inevitably fell over his shoulders and back, which he mercilessly pulled off without being affected y the sharp pain of doing so.
The Goblin Mages realized that he was going after them, and quickly made the Goblin Archers take out their knives and attack Noah at close-range!
However, Noah simply waved his claws as swipes of blood emerged from them, slicing apart the Goblins while draining their blood before they became black smoke!
"Gryaar!"
One of the Goblin Mages desperately conjured a new Spell, as an enormous spear of ice emerged from a magic circle in front of his staff!
Flash!
The enormous spear of ice left a trail of cold and freezing air behind, closing towards Noah at an immense speed!
Noah's senses sharpened as he felt the cold approach, gnashing his teeth, he moved to the left!
Clash!
The enormous spear of ice impacted his shoulder, tearing apart a large chunk of flesh while freezing his wound instantly!
However, for someone who was already cold and Undead, to an extent, Noah didn't felt any discomfort other than the inability to use that arm for a few seconds before it could regenerate!
The Goblin Mage was left startled as Noah charged towards him!
"GRRYARR…!"
Trying to conjure another spell to finish Noah off, the Goblin Mage tried to create a new magic circle, but Noah was already right in front of it, grasping its head with the claws of his healthy arm, and exerting a monstrous strength!
"Die."
"Grryaarrrrrr…!"
CRASH!
The entire head of the Goblin Mage exploded into bloody pieces, which Noah absorbed and drank to nourish his body, healing back the lost flesh on his shoulder wound!
However!
An enormous fireball closed in from his back while he was regenerating, generating a loud explosion of blazing flames into his back, blowing Noah off into the distance!
Boom!
"Gyahahaha! Grryarrr!" laughed the other Goblin Mage, having caught Noah off guard and managing to deal a great amount of Damage, it ordered the Goblin Archers to finish him off with a rain of arrows!
Noah hit the wall, leaving several cracks in there he vomited blood, he felt the sharp burning pain of his back being completely roasted, he could barely move, and his wounds were beginning to heal slowly again!
He poured an enormous quantity of blood from his Blood Sphere into his mouth, drinking it all to regenerate, but before he could even begin to close the wounds, a dozen of arrows reached him!
"Noah-sama!"
Clash!
Iris emerged from within the darkness, having finally taken down the other Goblin Warrior she was fighting, she came to help Noah, using her large black nails and her strength to destroy several arrows with powerful slashing attacks, and taking on the others that managed to get through her attacks!
Slash! Slash! Slash!
"Aaaghh…!" she cried, kneeling near Noah.
"Iris?" muttered Noah, finally getting up as he quickly shared his saved-up blood with Iris, emptying his reserves!
"Noah-sama, are you okay?" asked Iris with a tired smile.
"Yes… Thanks, Iris. I will make sure to give you back this favor… Stay here!" said Noah, charging towards the Goblin Mage!
"G-GRYAARR!"
The Goblin Mage trembled by seeing Noah's killing intent, which shrouded him like a crimson aura!
Desperately trying to kill him, the Goblin Mage sent the Goblin Archers against him, while the Goblin Mage started to conjure a spell, as a green magic circle emerged in front of its staff!
"Graarr!"
Flash!
An enormous amount of concentrated emerald winds emerged from within the Goblin Mage's magic circle, shaping itself as a small tornado!
Noah easily sliced off the smaller Goblin Archers, who were not a threat at all when they desperately fought at close combat realizing that they would not be able to use their bows properly if the enemy were too close to them!
Slash! Slash! Slash!
"Grryaarr…!"
Noah smiled wickedly as he began to drain the blood of the Goblins' corpses before they could disappear, gathering more blood into his Blood Sphere, and finally closing in to the Goblin Mage, who greeted him with an enormous typhoon of slicing emerald winds!
Flash!
"Blood Shield!" said Noah, as he manipulated the accumulated blood he had, shaping it as a large shield that covered his entire body!
BOOM!
The slicing winds began to penetrate through the Blood Shield quite easily, but Noah kept charging until the shield easily broke apart and the slicing wind sliced off his skin and flesh!
Slash! Slash! Slash!
However, this was good enough for Noah, the first impact and most of the power of the Spell was already consumed!
Noah gnashed his teeth maliciously, as he resisted the pain and finally reached the Goblin's Mage, penetrating its chest with his crimson claws before it could run away!
CRASH!
"GRRRYAAARRR…!"
"Blood Gathering…!"
Noah absorbed all of the blood of the Goblin Mage until its dried corpse disappeared into black smoke!
"Noah-sama, I've regenerated my wounds!" said Iris, reaching Noah's side as Noah began to drink some blood from his Blood Sphere, glancing at the figure sitting in front of them a few dozen meters away.
Its eyes gleamed with excitement as if it were being entertained.
"Gehehehe… Interesting… Humans!" it said.
"It can… speak?!" cried Iris.
"It's not that… but because we are now part Monster due to the Blood Progenitor, we can understand his language a bit," said Noah.
"You… Can understand… me? Interesting! Very… interesting!!!" roared the Goblin Champion, revealing its enormous and muscular physique, and standing up while raising its gigantic arms!
"Let's… battle to the death then!" he said.
