STARTING WITH AN SSS-RANK SWORDSMANSHIP TALENT

The elven warriors took aim and fired their arrows at her signal, increasing the number of casualties on the goblin army’s side at a rapid rate.

Meanwhile, a small team of beast soul warriors with ranged integrated monster traits also released their abilities. Although there were only a few of them, their offensive firepower was almost on par with the thousands of elven warriors combined!

The corpses of the goblin warriors quickly piled up and the holes they had dug up were soon filled.

What ruthless monsters! They did not even hesitate to use their comrades’ bodies to fill up the holes.

Sunset frowned at the sight of this. She was unnerved by the heartlessness of the goblins.

She quickly calmed herself. She couldn’t afford to get distracted now.

“Switch to melee weapons!” She shouted when she noticed that the goblin army was closing in.

Hearing her words, the elven warriors abandoned their bows and unsheathed their blades.

General Ryzel stepped forward and shouted with his sword pointed to the sky.

“Prepare for close combat!”

“Yes, sir!” The elven warriors replied in unison, their voices shook the forest.

When the goblin army reached a certain distance, Ryzel bellowed. “Charge!!”

He led the vanguard, fearlessly charging without hesitation. Following closely behind him were the elven warriors. They formed a triangle formation with Ryzel as the focal point.

When viewed from above, their formation looked like that of an arrowhead.

No one can stop my sword!

Ryzel snorted as he lunged forward, swinging his sword in a horizontal motion.

Whoosh!

With him at the forefront, they tore through the goblin army’s formation unimpeded!

No one could stop Ryzel.

He was like a fierce tiger hunting a flock of sheep!

The biggest reason for his fearsome killing power was his sword. It was a relic-level weapon with a special engraved ability. Unlike most relic-level weapons with ranged abilities, his sword possessed the power to devour the blood of his slain enemies. The more blood his sword devoured, the stronger it amplified his physical strength!

However, there was also one major problem.

The more blood it devoured, the more it affected his mentality.

It was like a double-edged skill so he rarely used the sword’s engraved ability.

But he couldn’t care less about it. He wanted to avenge the elven warriors who had fallen in the grasslands.

Ryzel’s eyes turned red and veins protruded on his face as his sword absorbed more goblin blood.

Kill! Kill! Kill!

His movements became even faster and his power also increased significantly!

The goblin warriors and even the nearby trees weren’t spared from his ferocious attacks.

Meanwhile, Rosalie who had yet to step into battle frowned as she watched him slowly descend into madness.

“That idiot…”

She had repeatedly warned Ryzel not to rely too much on his sword’s engraved ability, but the latter clearly didn’t heed her advice.

“Your Majesty, please allow me to stop Ryzel from using his sword’s power!” Rosalie turned her gaze to Garandel who was standing next to her.

The elven king was observing the battle with a stern face when he heard her words.

“Alright.” Garandel approved her request. He also didn’t want to see Ryzel fall into depravity.

After getting the king’s permission, Rosalie nodded gratefully before she rushed to join the battle.

Now that he was left alone, Garandel looked at the side of the human warriors. Of the three Transcendent Knights they had, only Warrick had joined the battle. Lucas and Galanar were still waiting for the right moment to attack.

They had already discussed this during their meeting. It was a strategy to preserve their strength before the arrival of the goblin monarchs. Otherwise, with all of them exhausted, they wouldn’t have enough energy to fight with those dangerous monsters.

As if sensing his gaze, Lucas turned his head and gave him a nod.

What keen perception…

Garandel thought to himself as he nodded back in response. He then moved his attention back to the battle.

At this moment, thousands of goblins had already been killed and a few hundred of them were slaughtered by Ryzel himself.

He didn’t feel a hint of remorse after killing those monsters. He didn’t know if it was the aftereffects of using his sword’s engraved ability or if it was just his own hatred towards the goblins.

“Die!!”

His eyes were already bloodshot and he was also about to be consumed by madness, but he didn’t notice anything since he was too focused on killing more enemies.

Just then, he suddenly sensed a fearsome aura locking in on him.

Hm?!

He stopped in his tracks and scanned his surroundings, but other than the goblin warriors charging at him, he didn’t sense anything more threatening in particular.

Strange… I definitely felt a frightening presence nearby.

The weird sensation brought him back to reality.

I… what is happening to me?

He realized that he had been consumed by the sword’s power.

Dammit! I almost lost control of myself!

In that instant, an overwhelming pressure descended upon him.

He narrowed his eyes and looked in a certain direction. This time, he finally discovered the source of this pressure.

It was a goblin monarch! However, unlike the goblin monarchs that they had fought recently, this one had a more intimidating aura.

It was playing with its bone sword as it approached him with steady steps. The monster also wore a hideous smile that made him feel unsettled.

This goblin monarch seems to be different…

He frowned.

Ryzel adjusted his stance while keeping his eyes on the goblin monarch. He had a feeling that it could kill him if he was even a little bit careless!

Whoosh!

The goblin monarch suddenly lunged at him, brandishing its bone sword with a casual slash.

A purple wind blade shot toward Ryzel with lightning speed!

“Be careful!” A familiar voice drifted into his ears.

Ryzel didn’t attempt to block the wind blade. He twisted his body, evading it in the nick of time!

Hiss! Hiss!

The tree behind him melted in just a few seconds.

What?!
