A Living Armour Owns A Tavern 24 Goblin Lord

"Sir Defender! Are you alright?! We Have to Retreat!" Rhoanne shouted at the Downed, Magna Defender.

Rhoanne was continuously dodging at the Goblin Lord's Earthshaking strikes. She is aware that one strike from that towering club means certain death. Meanwhile, Nico continues to shoot bolts at the Goblin Lord's eyes to slow him down.

Unfortunately, Four Goblin captains and two Goblin Generals are making it hard for Nico to completely support Rhoanne. The Goblin Generals rushed towards Nico, brandis.h.i.+ng their heavy War Axe. Nico successfully dodges their swift strikes and follows up with a counterattack using his shortsword!

"Clas.h.!.+"

Nico performs his sword dance, attacking both the Goblin Generals!

"SKRRTT!!! SLASHH!!!"

Small wounds have appeared on both the Generals' body as they blocked Nico's blade with their tower s.h.i.+elds.

The Four Goblin Captains have made their move and protected their Generals from Nico's slashes. Rhoanne got alarmed as she saw her employer Nico is slowly being overrun by these rat-faced creatures.

"Boss! Hold On!" Shouted Rhoanne. She took a pouch from her waist and threw it towards the Goblin Lord's face. The pouch exploded and released a grayish powder which made the Goblin Lord's breathing difficult. Rhoanne would have used this chance to attack the Goblin Lord. But since she was aware that her attacks were futile against the Goblin Lord, instead she rushed towards her employer and used her "Intimidate" Skill. Then Roanne followed up with executing her "Whirlwind Slash" technique. The Goblin Generals and Goblin Captains flung to the side, giving all of them a chance to run for the exit doors.

"Go to the doors Now! I'll catch up!" shouted Gus as he slowly stood up. He is still staggering from the Goblin Lords' brutal strike. Rhoanne and Nico nodded at Gus and rushed towards the door.

But before they were able to reach the door, The Goblin Lord has thrown his big club towards the exit doors.

"WATCH OUT!" Shouted Gus.

Nico and Rhoanne were about to reach the doors, but Gus jumped at them from the side tackling them away instead.

As Nico and Rhoanne returned to their senses, they noticed the Towering Club that smashed and blocked the exit doors. They were thankful for Gus' swift rescue. Both of them knew that they couldn't take more than a single hit from the Goblin Lord's Club. Unfortunately, the club has blocked their way out of the dungeon as well.

"This is it, Boss." Said Rhoanne.

"Let's make our final stand," said Nico as he took a defensive stance.

The Goblins were already celebrating! They screamed loudly and waved their weapons in the air, as they knew victory was already theirs.

"Ms. Rhoanne, Mr. Nico. Please trust me and eat these," said Gus. He slowly pulled out His Tasty Bacon, Soy Garlic Battered Porc Chops, and Minotaur Ribs with Asian sauce.

"Um, Sir Defender, Now is not a good time to have our last meal," said Rhoanne

With no hesitation, Nico picked up the bacon and took a bite. "I don't know who you are Sir Defender, but I know you are hiding a few things from both of us."

Nico picked up the Battered Porc chops and took another bite.

"But one thing I'm sure of is that you are definitely on our side. I trust you, Sir Defender."

Nico picked up the Mintoraur Ribs and finally took a bite.

"Rhoanne, Just do what he says," said Nico as he handed Rhoanne her the Bacon.

Rhoanne breathed deeply as she prepared herself. She quickly ate all the food in front of her.

Suddenly their wounds have slightly healed and their stamina has returned! Not only that, because of Gus' "Cooking Skill" Pa.s.sive, their stats are boosted for one hour!

"I will explain the details later, but right now, both of you have more strength, speed, and stamina for one hour," said Gus to the confused duo.

"If we are going to increase our chances of beating the Goblin Lord, I suggest we take out the Goblin Captains and their Generals first," suggested Nico.

"Okay, I'll take care of The Captains and the Generals. Sir Defender, I hate to ask this of you, but seeing that you can take more hits than we do, then I need you to distract the Goblin Lord for us. Lastly, Boss will support both of us from behind." said Rhoanne.

Gus nodded and agreed. He knew it was natural for him to take on the Goblin Lord since he is the only one in the group that won't die from its deadly strike.

While the Goblins were still celebrating their early victory, they were surprised by Rhoanne's quick forward dash and took down the first Goblin captain using her technique, Helm Splitter!

"CRASH"

The First Goblin Captain Separated into two halves. As another Goblin Captain rushed towards Rhoanne, a bolt penetrated its armored skull. Nico's skill, "Puncture Shot" is enhanced thanks to the temporary stat boost. The surprised Goblin General shouted and used its skill, "Warcry" which boosts the morale and stats of its remaining goblin captains.

Rhoanne used the last pouch on her waist at the remaining Goblin Captains, which was the same powder that she threw on the Goblin Lord's face earlier. As the Goblin Captains were wheezing, Rhoanne pa.s.sed by them and went straight to attack the Goblin General.

"Boss!" Shouted Roanne.

Nico understood Rhoanne's intention and used his skill, "Arrow Barrage" on the Goblin General, which made him lower his guard. Rhoanne then followed up, with her enhanced "Sword Thrust!"

"SHWIKK!!!"

The First Goblin General let out a loud cry before it finally breathed its last.

Meanwhile, The Goblin Lord was distracted by the Magna Defender. The Goblin Lord tried to hit Gus with his might swings, but because Gus is enhanced with his own food, he was fast enough to dodge its mighty strikes. As the Goblin lord witnessed the death of his Goblin General, Its eyes glowed red and activated its skill "Enrage," increasing his attack speed and attack power at the cost of his own defense.

The Goblin Lord s.h.i.+fted its focus towards Rhoanne, in anger for killing its faithful subordinate. Gus attempted to intercept the Goblin Lord by executing a downward slash on its back.

"SKRIs.h.!.+"

Thanks to the Boosted Stats, Gus managed to inflict damage on its back, but the Goblin Lord simply ignored his injury and went straight charging towards Rhoanne.

"Rhoanne! He's Coming!" warned Gus, as he follows after the Enraged Goblin Lord.

The Goblin Lord has raised its arms to try and pulverize Rhoanne.

"BAM!"

Rhoanne managed to roll out of the way. Unfortunately, she has to drop her weapon, leaving her completely defenseless as she laid on the ground. Seeing the opportunity, the two goblin captains jumped at her for the kill with their heavy axes!

"KLANG!" Heavy Axes has. .h.i.t successfully! Blood dripped on Rhoanne's face.

The blood belonged to Gus. He received the Heavy Axes on his back as he protected Rhoanne while she laid on the ground.

-----------------------

Nico shot a "Piercing arrow" to one of the Goblin captains and manages to hit its temple, killing it instantly.

"Sir Defender! You're Injured!" shouted Rhoanne.

"Just take this and go!" said Gus as he used his skill Impart, giving Rhoanne a Longsword before he rolled away and tried to recover from his injury.

Meanwhile, Nico managed to keep the Goblin Lord at bay, by landing his shots on the injury it sustained from Gus' previous attack. The Goblin Lord picked up the Heavy Axe from his dead Goblin General and focused its Heavy strikes on Nico.

Rhoanne was able to catch her second wind. As she recovered, she immediately performed a helm splitter on the remaining Goblin Captain, which killed it instantly. Looking at the Last Goblin General, Rhoanne roared with ferocity as she performed "Armor breaker." An attack aimed at smas.h.i.+ng through the defenses of the opponent, also stunning it momentarily. While the Goblin General is trying to collect itself, Rhoanne focused her strength for her next attack.

"SWIFF!!!!"

Rhoanne executed "Skyrush" which slashed the Goblin General upwards killing him instantly. Blood and guts spilled everywhere as Rhoanne managed to split the Goblin General as well.

While keeping the momentum, Rhoanne used her "Intimidate" skill, raising her defenses and rushed towards the last enemy, The Goblin Lord. She performed a sword thrust aimed at its Injury.

"BAM!"

It was unexpected. But Rhoanne was not fast enough and was brutally countered by the Goblin Lord's Heavy Axe. Her Blood spilled everywhere as she was sent flying and crashed to the dungeon wall.

"RHOANNE!" shouted Nico.

Nico is horrified as he saw her bodyguard, lie on the pool of her own blood.
