With the arrival of the ogre, the ugly green creatures became even more agitated.

" seriously! how many of these goblins are there?!, it's as if they keep endlessly popping...but still they're weak and their number is rapidly decreasing ...."

Professor Rainer said still using his ability to record the events through Ahab.

" Can you give an approximate estimation of their number? " Ahab asked him

" more or less than a thousand," he said

" I see .."

" hmmm?? ..Captain Ahab! .....whatever happens, we need that crystal ! " the professor suddenly shouted.

"..." Ahab slightly nodded once

• • • • •

"....It's coming from that crystal... so this is what I sensed early on ..." Zel said pointing into the right arm of the ogre

" That feeling.....it just like .....us !? " Alex said not sure if what he was feeling right now, was not just his imagination playing him a trick. meanwhile looking at a deep black-purple crystal stuck just under the shoulder of the right arm of the ogre.

kiiiii kiiiiiiikikikiiiiiiii kiiiiiii

The anguish of some goblins being crushed by the ogre made it unbearable to the ears.

not knowing what to do, and stuck between the fear of being crushed or being blasted, they just decide to follow their instincts and jump! on that shield once again.

looking at the reactions of the orcs inside that protective doom, one could easily deduce that they didn't understand what was happening.

they were looking at each other as if their fate was sealed, but their determination to fight till the end was clearly visible in their deep green eyes and didn't fade at all.

" I vess mad xi oxsi da vedurdomk dui nladivdeam hal daa samb ! " amidst all the unpleasant noises, in a melodic, sweet to hear a feminine voice. the wizard chanting was like a fresh braise to the ears,

upon hearing her, all the orcs tightened their grapes on their weapons. taking a fighting stance.

the crystal on the ogre's arm started to shine at the same time the trees started their bursting phenomena!

WROAAAAAAAAA !

causing that Ogre to suddenly let a loud scream of agony!

causing even some of the goblins to faint.

suddenly it dashed reducing the distance between it and the native groups in a matter of seconds.

" fast ! ...." alex exclaimed judging the abnormal speed of that monster.

" Tui nladivdeam vess mad xi oxsi da vedurdomk ed oddovqr !! " the wizard shouted,

causing all the orcs to enter in a defensive stance.

Booom !

Boom !

two smashes, that all it took for the ogre to incapacitate the group.

The first attack crushed the doom like it was made of glass. the goblins on it slowly falling with smirks on their ugly faces . some of them even had their long tong out salivating.

the wizard was trying it best to launch it other spell. but in vain .

The second attack of the ogre was a horizontal smack. that killed In it process both goblins and 4 orcs that tried to block it .

then

Bom!

a the third shockwave that was less powerful than the previous two, the bulgy brownish orc, who had tanked and deviated the third attack of that ogre, was sent flying. passing just some meters away from the two spectators.

before crashing into a group of goblins crushing and killing them. because of the impact force.

" You.. think he will be alright? " Alex said

" Hmm.. perhaps some brokenribs but not mortal for him " zel said .

Kiiiiii kiiiiiiiiiiiii kiiiiiiiiii

After seeing what the ogre could accomplish, the goblins were all excited forgetting that it even killed their kins, and were jumping all around meanwhile shearing.

" i have seen enough! just kill all these little creatures, leave only that ogre alive. " Zel calmly ordered to seemingly no one in particular.

Just after that order, 5 waves of deep blue thunder arcs, hundred meters long started to dance in the battlefield, killing each time on their roed dozens of goblin. not giving them any chance to run

Kiiiiiiyaaaa kiiiiiii kiiiii ! Their excitement became cries of terror and agony.

" Alexender protects that wizard don't let it die. "

Zel switched from his big brother-like attitude to that of an emperor commanding his subject.

" us you order your highnesssss..... ! " said in a formal tone, with his voice fading .

Alex was once again nowhere to be seen .

500 m away, captain Ahab was still standing in his position, with professor Raineron his back using his ability. nothing changed from that standpoint. the only difference was that captain Ahab's left hand was raised in the direction of the native camp and it was wide open with each of his five fingers acting as a source of deep blue lightning.

" An .....elf ?!... captain it's an elf !!! Beautiful ....they truly are like in the legends, there is no doubt about it !!!! one of the elves on earth legends..... " professor Rainer excitedly said to captain Ahab after having transmitted the orders Zel gave him.

• • • • •

In the native camp,

the dancing lightning had attracted the gaze of all the last 4 standing natives composed of the three orcs, the wizard, and that were not able to understand what was happening.

the wizard had now its face fully visible due to the hood hiding its face, getting taken off by the shock wave of the ogre's last attack.

Revealing a beautiful doll-like face covered in sweat, a snow-white smooth skin, she had two deep blue eyes and a court silky silvery messed hair. but what made her unique and easy to be distinguished were her two pointed ears.

The first feeling that comes to someone when looking at that angelic face of her, was not one of admiration but one of protection. The ' I need to protect her at any cost ' type of feeling .

" beautiful... " zel said looking at her

From the forehead of that elven, that was now heavily panting and shaking only able to stand because of her staff, was dripping dark green blood.

just some meters in front of her was a big green orc who was wielding a weirdly curved lance. That he used to help himself stand up, but before he had time to composure himself, the green little creatures rushed and jumped at him from all directions completely submerging him. smashing, stabbing, and biting sounds that were only topped by his screams of agony that were now becoming weaker and weaker. until ...

the goblins then quickly rushed away revealing a sigh of horror.

The elf quickly turned her eyes away and sadly closed them.

the same goblins that killed their prey turned around preparing to attack the elve with lust in their eyes. instantly died without even knowing how. strikend by one of the lightnings .

" Com i'ay....vom i'ay poqi omadui rueisk ? " the slender brown orc said in a tired harsh voice trying his best to not faint, exhausted from fighting non-stop trying his best to push away the goblins. in his face the look of despair and lost hope.

just some more meters away from him the source of his despair. A 13m tall ogre with a big mass, was groaning like a wild beast.

the ogre that was just standing still, watching that lightning, but after a bit of time and realizing that the lightning was not attacking it, got bored of it and once again switched its gaze toward its prey.

" Oh rla'hom a'r oaaumo ghmoa rlo iya'au nma'oaa' " the elven started chanting desperately in a tired voice hoping to cast a spell but it was in vain .she was simply too tired.

The ogre started to walk slowly... toward them satisfied with what it did.

ROARRRRRR !!

a roar, but this time it was not that of the ogre, but it was the bulgy green orc who earlier, was protecting the elf . in the last resort charged at the ogre. hopping to overwhelm it with sheer brute force.

with one thought on its mind finishing what it started. raised its mass ready to swing it

" yooooo mind if I join the party?!! "

Suddenly a voice of a young boy stopped the charge of the orc meanwhile attracting the gaze of that hideous monster that was still ready to swing.

it was non-other than Alex who appeared in between both of them, facing the orc upfront and turning his back to the ogre.

his gaze was switching from the green orc to the barely standing elven, he then started waving in her direction with a smile on his face.
