YM778.TV Chapter 62 - Inferno
"Come on then!"
Sheila shouted at the opponent who has her surrounded. Right after, she immediately jumped into her own shadow before trying to put distance from them. The fighter who has sent a punch to her, missed when her figure already blends within the shadow. She didn\'t get far before the Goblin King uses its roar, which pulled her out of the shadow. But at least, she was not surrounded anymore, which is good.
Sheila conjures a fireball in her mind as a ball of flame materialise in the air in front of her before it flew toward the Goblin Fighter and exploded. The spell didn\'t kill it and only got minor injured of burned skin. She was not surprised at how robust and sturdy their body is and summon another fireball spell. The Goblin King obviously won\'t let her attack the second time as it commands the other Goblin Fighter before rushing to her by itself.
The fireball flew and hit another Goblin Fighter on the face. It shrieks from the pain before madly rush toward her like the others. Seeing the Goblin King and its fighters rushing straight at her, Sheila didn\'t back away but instead charged head-on with the sword in her hand. If Ria were here, she would have been angry and scold her for rushing toward the enemy like an idiot. In Sheila\'s mind, she only cares about defeating her enemy, no matter which way she goes for, even if it risked her life. Sheila didn\'t realise it herself, but she put other\'s life more important than hers.
That was why it never crosses her mind that her act was dangerous. That was her flaw. But it didn\'t matter even if she knows about it since to her; the loved ones are more important than anything in the world.
The Goblin King swung its long sword at her, and she somehow manages to deflect it with her sword, but the force coming from it caused her hands to feel numb. It seems that the Goblin King is more of a fighter-type than an all-rounder. She could tell it from the force of strength when her sword comes in contact with the other long sword. The Goblin King strength is definitely fearsome to a certain extent.
Sheila couldn\'t even take a moment to rest before Goblin Fighters started sending a punch one by one at her. She tried her best to dodge it, but two punches managed to hit her body as she flew far before rolling over to take hold of herself. Taking all of them at once is impossible, huh. Damn, my body hurts from being punched.
She cursed under her breath before taking a potion from the inventory and drink it in one gulp. She wipes her mouth before throwing the empty potion to the Goblin Fighters who was charging ahead at her. Like in the game, the pain on her body slowly disappeared and were replaced by a warm and refreshing feeling.
Looking at the empty potion shattering when it hits the Goblin Fighter, Sheila summons an arrow made of flame. The Goblin Fighter didn\'t avoid the fire arrow and boldly stood upfront as behind it was its King, the arrow made of flame stabbed into it and the smell of flesh being burned spread to the air. But a ball of fire soon followed after and exploded right in its face.
It howled in pain and didn\'t notice that Sheila was right in front of it and then, its head was ripped apart ruthlessly from the beheading of her sword. One Goblin Fighter killed, three left and one Goblin King. She sent out another slash to the Goblin King standing behind the dead Goblin Fighter before backing away. She knows that it could block her attack; that was why she returned. She didn\'t want to get herself surrounded again.
While she was backing away, she didn\'t forget to fire out one spell after another to the Goblin Fighters that was chasing after her. Once she feels the mana in her body was on a low level, she immediately drinks the mana potion before tossing it to them. So far, the fight has been going smoothly for her. The four monsters in front of her still stood strong and imposing, but she was not discouraged at all. If anything, her blood was boiling even more as the heat getting into her head. If not for her mind still in the state of calm, she might have made a blunder.
In the battle where life was a risk, one small blunder could potentially change the situation, like getting heavy injured after making a blunder. How would one continue the fight with heavy injuries in their body? Only by preserving their will could their continue on battling their way out of the tense situation. That\'s why one needs to be cool, and their mind must stay calm and collected. One couldn\'t come up with a good plan if their mind is chaotic after all.
As the fight prolonged, Sheila breathing started to become heavy, and her body slowly being filled with injuries all over. But it was not without a cost as she had also managed to kill her third Goblin Fighter, now there are only two monsters left, Goblin King and one Goblin Fighter.
"Haa...ha..ha."
Sheila glares at the monster in front of her while she panted heavily. Her body was covered in red of her blood; her messed figure look as bad as when she battled against Goblin Shaman for the first time. It was a tiring and hard battle. But it was totally worth it as she could feel that leveling up is not that far away now. From her fight, she had tried binding the Goblin Fighter with their shadow, but it didn\'t last long enough before they break through it with brute force. She didn\'t try it on the boss since she knew that it wouldn\'t do much and only be wasting mana.
While she was glaring at the two, they were also glaring deathly at her. They were also tired from the fight and somehow, both were now staring at each other while picking up their breath. She took the chance to drink the potions, which healed her wounds and refilling her mana. Should I use the new spell that I had just learned? From the name of it, it sounds powerful. But will it be enough to kill the Goblin King?
She couldn\'t come to a decision when the Goblin King charges at her followed by Goblin Fighter. It couldn\'t wait for any longer and decide to make its move, but Sheila was well prepared. She fires out a fireball at it before backing away while preparing herself to conjure a powerful spell, inferno. When she got the information about it in her head, she could tell it was powerful, and it will take a bit of her time to conjure it.
But a single fireball couldn\'t stop the two monster in front of her from rushing straight at her. And so, she didn\'t only need to focus her mind for the spell; she also needs to avoid the incoming attack from the two of them. Sheila steps to the side to avoids the punch coming from Goblin Fighter before lowering her body down, avoiding from getting cut into two by the long sword sent by Goblin King. It was hard but still manageable. But she couldn\'t obviously keep dodging all the attacks, one time she almost lost her neck if she didn\'t put her sword to her front.
It didn\'t take her long enough before she could feel the heat everywhere around her. She could feel the loss of quite a huge amount of mana before throwing her hands in front as she could feel the heat radiating and then, a blazing inferno fire out of her hands. The temperature was so intense that she thought she was standing right next to a living magma. When the inferno finally died down, she was shocked at the sight of the aftermath.
"Holy flame..."
Sheila cursed under her breath as she stares at the result of Inferno spell. The Goblin King is no more, what only left there is nothing but burned and blacked ground. Not even a flesh of it was left behind; it was incinerated into nothingness. Even the Goblin Fighter to the right has lost its left arm even though it didn\'t stand that close to the range of the spell. There\'s only one thing left she would say after gazing at the scene, it\'s SUPER DAMN POWERFUL.
『 You have leveled up! 』
