A Living Armour Owns A Tavern 21 Goblin Attack

"Sir! we are under attack!" said the exhausted skinny guard.

"Attack?! which city?! what faction?!" asked Victor.

"It's not from a city sir! Goblins!" answered the skinny guard as he couldn't also believe it himself.

"But, there shouldn't be goblin nests within miles!" answered Victor.

He knew their town is already safe inside the domain of Fahnzel. Patrols are very strict on their borders. Victor has pondered, how a great number of these mindless beasts, could avoid the eyes of the vigilant Citadel Border Brigade.

"Sir the goblins didn't come from outside the town walls! They came from underneath the town's dungeon!" reported the skinny guard.

"Impossible! Dungeon creatures are bound to stay underneath! Gather everyone inside the chapel grounds!" said Victor.

Goblins are weak but agile creatures. They enjoy robbing and killing the most. When these creatures emerged from underneath the dungeon, they were attracted to the Big and bright bonfire right in the middle of the town.

The town of Yellowleaf was caught off guard as they didn't expect their own dungeon to bend its own rules. They were completely defenseless as all the capable men were currently miles away from their homes. The only ones who are left to defend town are a few elders and a handful of stationed inexperienced militia guards.

"Gretel! Take your siblings and run inside the Chapel, now!" shouted Sarah.

Gretel nodded and took them inside to hide. She figured it would be safer to be with Gus.

Sarah guided the rest of the people, inside the chapel and did her best effort to calm everybody down.

"Sir! We only have a handful of militia present! We are able to hold them off at the Chapel gates, with the help of our guests. But I'm afraid we may not last for long!" reported the skinny guard.

"I see. Good work. Go immediately to the gates and help them. I will be with you shortly." said Victor.

"But... chief... you must not!" complained the skinny guard.

"I will die before they kill our people! Now Go!" demanded Victor.

Victor Trea has watched over the town of Yellowleaf for generations, even back before the MoSanchez Monarchy stepped in. Their Family is kind and just to the people, and always prioritized the people's needs before themselves.

Victor came from a great Family of Bards. His Father has spread countless songs and stories about the Heroes of old. His talented father gave prosperity to Yellow leaf by nurturing future bards. Unfortunately, Victor knew he wasn't as talented as his father. He has no talent with songwriting and the lute.

Yellowleaf's has stopped progressing ever since Victor's father has died from an illness. Yellowleaf town has declined more and more ever since.

-------‐‐---------‐-----------

Nico and Rhoanne is defending the Chapel gates along with a few willing elders and a handful of an exhausted militia.

"Good thing, they are just goblins." Said Nico as bolts flew from his crossbow, one after the other.

Rhoanne hacked through the goblins mercilessly. But her efforts look as if she was trying to stop the flow of a waterfall. She dodged one goblin who jumped at her with a dagger in its hand. Rhoanne barely dodges, as the goblin's blade brushed slightly across her arm. Rhoanne grabbed another goblin from her side and threw the ugly little creature to three more other goblins.

"Boss, there is never a good thing with Goblins. Killing them in tight dungeons are different. To fight these rat-faced, monsters out here in the open is close to suicide!" said Rhoanne as she drinks a stamina potion.

Unfortunately, more trouble has arrived at the chapel gates. There are Goblin Shamans that appeared.

"That's not good!" said Rhoanne. She rushed immediately for the Shaman. Before reaching her target, she was blocked by a horde of goblins, protecting their leader.

Rhoanne screamed as she decapitated two goblins with a single strike of her sword. After noticing that the horde was getting thicker around her, she unleashed another technique.

"Whirlwind Strike!"

"FWOOOSHH"

Groups of goblins were divided into two. Rhoanne stepped back, as Goblin blood was already dulling her sword.

She backed off after executing the technique. A goblin rushed towards the exhausted Rhoanne, wielding its makeshift wooden club.

"SHIKKTTT!"

A bolt has. .h.i.t the goblin straight to its' temple! Nico then tossed a short sword at Rhoanne. The moment she caught the short sword, she threw her heavy two-handed sword at the thickest part of the horde she could see, as if it was a javelin.

"FWOOSHH!"

Two goblins dropped on their knees together as they were skewered by the big, heavy and b.l.o.o.d.y sword.

"Boss, this is pointless! There are too many of them!" said Rhoanne.

Nico dropped his crossbow as he already ran out of bolts. He unsheathed his sword as he also prepared for the next wave of incoming goblins.

Rhoanne and Nico were completely surrounded by the Ma.s.s horde of goblins. The Shaman Goblin grinned as it signaled his troops to jump in for the kill! Every Goblin jumped at them, excited for human blood to spill.

In the Chapel--‐----------------

The Goblins were closing in! They have managed to break through the first line of defense. Injuries, has started to show among the defenders. Women are trying to calm their children inside the chapel.

"Close your eyes dear. Everything is going to be okay."

Said one mother to her daughter.

"Don't cry Elliot! Real men don't cry! Let us protect your sister together." said an elder to his grandson. Most of them have already resigned to their fate.

Not long after, Goblins has started rushing in the Chapel. Everyone shuddered in fear. The goblins all celebrated as they looked at the women and children as food and their playthings.

The little boy Elliot stood up and raised his wooden stick against the Goblins. A goblin rushed at him as it grinned maliciously. It thrust its dagger toward Elliot's stomach.

Victor tried to save the boy.

"SHIK!!!"

The women and children screamed in horror as they have just witnessed a goblin murder a child.

But suddenly, they can still see Elliot moving. The Goblin keep thrusting and slashing at Elliot, but the dagger attacks were taking no effect!

As the Goblin looked at his dagger in frustration, it was punched by Elliot.

"BOOM!"

Goblin brains splattered everywhere! Elliot was shocked as bits and pieces of goblins were still on his face. The Chapel turned silent. The Elders including Victor dropped their jaws, The women and the girls stopped crying. Meanwhile, the goblins also stopped dead in their tracks. They were all staring at the miraculous little boy, with Goblin guts all over him.

‐------------------------------

Nico and Rhoanne were prepared for the worst. the Goblin dogpiled over Rhoanne. But suddenly, the goblins were feeling something off. As if there was a surge of energy that wants to escape underneath.

"GRAAAHHHHHHHH!!!!!"

Goblin bodies flew everywhere in the air! Some even exploded!

Rhoanne went all out, as she dived along with her fists through the goblin horde.

"Hahahaha! You dare gang up on me?! Let me return the favor!!!" Shouted Rhoanne, breaming with bright energy. The Goblin Shaman was shocked. After seeing Rhoanne's display of ferocity, It even ordered more goblins to attack her!

Nico was also shocked at Rhoanne. But, he was even more surprised at himself. The fatigue has suddenly faded from his body. Instead, endless energy and strength slowly filled him up.

He performed a sword dance technique, as he plowed through the goblins. One step, two-step, three-step! He was suddenly empowered as well!

"What is going on?" Nico thought.
