Blacksmith Assassin First Victim
The group led by Claudius is scattered across the forest, just as what’s been reported to him by Berthold, the other members are out scouting while the rest are hunting for extra provision. This tactic is due to the consideration that, there is a very high possibility for the hero of the Forge to leave the kingdom of the dark elves after a couple more days of preparation. No. That is the only logical option that this hero can take. In the minds of those who think properly, there is no way that the hero would be able to leave earlier. After all, once the request for an audience reaches the ears of the hero and the higher authorities of Forge, they would first be shaken. Afterwards they would think of all the moves they can make, none of which would make sense to their miniscule minds.This is what’s normal. They are right on the first part of course. The dark elves were shaken by the news. In fact, when Sylvia received it, she could barely think straight anymore. That is the kind of i
Blacksmith Assassin The Second Victim
“One down.”Aries said these words as soon as the arrow left her bow. The projectile launched itself towards the target in such a blinding speed that, only after a millisecond, it already hit Martin. That is how quick the attack is. And with this swiftness also comes a silence. A tearing through the wind that is so soft and gentle that you’d think it is nothing more than a small razor that’s cutting through it, nothing bigger than that.But that’s not the case. What cut through it is far more lethal and Martin died as soon as the arrow made contact with him. He didn’t even realize it. That his head is no longer properly intact. That there is now an arrow that’s pierced through his brain. Breaking through all of his defenses as the elf fell to the ground. Reduced to nothing more than a lifeless corpse as the two elves that hunted him down finally began to close in.“Man, that’s really a wasted arrow if I ever did see one.” Silver commented. “Let’s not, okay?” Aries answered back.They
Blacksmith Assassin Ruthless
Claudius didn’t waste any time and went to the site where the explosion happened. Following him is none other than Berthold who is lagging just a bit behind. This is to be expected because, Claudius is running at full speed. A feat that he is doing because he knows exactly who it is that owns the explosion they just heard.His ears have heard this countless times already so there’s no way he can mistake it for anything else. He cannot miss. This explosion can only be produced by the fireball that is casted by Dyel. He’s sure that she is the only one capable of using such a fireball and making that kind of explosion and, even if he can doubt his ears, the mere fact that Berthold thought the same means that there is a higher chance that they are right.No. They are sure that they are right. This is a guarantee and, that is why they made their way swiftly. Other than being used as an offensive spell, the fireballs of Dyel are also used as a signal for the whole of the group. When she cas
Blacksmith Assassin The Cause
Before we move to what happened to the elves that are blown up, a question needs to be answered. Two of them to be exact. That is, the nature of these explosives and how they have been set up to hit the intended targets. And the explanation of this, part of it, is contained in the conversation that Zeke had with his allies before they left the kingdom.“Alright, before we go, I want to give you guys a little something.” Zeke opened his inventory. This is one of the many features that he has which the normal dwellers of this world do not. A privilege that allows him to hide everything that belongs to him as well as carry with him weight that shouldn’t even be possible for a single human to bring.From this same feature, Zeke drew out an item. Three of them to be exact which are all spheres. In the middle of these are small gems that are easily distinguishable as mana gems. Items that can carry with them mana and, is used for a wide array of activities.“What’s this my lord?” Caster as
Blacksmith Assassin The Dark Elves Combined
The explosion that occurred in the forest is the same one that Zeke used against Adeline. But there is a difference. This is the strengthened version. That’s right. The one that’s released at that point in time in the forest is the version of this explosion that is far stronger. It is the version that Zeke’s already amplified to a point where it is generally twice as strong.This is the type of explosion that hit Claudius and his ally. This is the kind of explosion that is set off right on their face. An explosion that cannot be compared to anything else and, as such, is something that created the desired result as well.The explosion left the earth trembling and quaking. The nearby trees got destroyed as well as everything else in the nearby vicinity. The sound it created is so ear wrenching that one could potentially go deaf for a couple of minutes if they are exposed too close to it – though this would’ve still been a better outcome compared to what became of these elves. All of wh
Blacksmith Assassin Courtroom Troubles
[Location: Elven Kingdom][Events are happening at the same time as Claudius’ fight against Silver and Aries.Sylph marched through the corridors of the elven kingdom’s castle. His footsteps’ sound being absorbed by the trees, branches, and leaves that can be seen all around. A proof that this is truly the kingdom of the elves. A living forest where the elves thrive in.The serenity of the kingdom is far from the kind of expression that Sylph is making though. Instead of having a peaceful look drawn on his face, the only thing painted there is worry. One that is created with his sunken eyes and his pale expression. He is hiding his emotions quite well though and, even those close to him won’t notice the difference in his expression. But I can. This same elf barged through the gates of the queen’s courtroom. It isn’t really the queen’s but the king who rules over it. But because of the poor health of the kingdom’s ruler, it is Queen Elizabeth who is holding all of the rulership and au
Blacksmith Assassin Fight and Denials
[Location: Dark Elven Forest][Instance: Battle between Claudius versus Aries and Silver.The attack that Aries unleashed is one that she trained all her life to master. Ever since she learned how to wield a bow, she has been harnessing the power to fire this attack properly. Her fingers have been wounded and left calloused from her multiple attempts at making it stronger. Her shoulders have been strained and the blades of it have been broken a couple of times as well.There are nights when the dark elf would have fevers from all the pain that her body is going through because, she isn’t just practicing on mere targets after all. She’s practicing on real monsters. Ones that can fight back against her. This personal training of hers continued for a while because she has to survive. The bow she wields is from a dead dark elf whom she doesn’t even know. And the arrows she used are ones that have been scattered everywhere she goes. She continued walking, moving forward, practicing by her
Blacksmith Assassin Hitting the Target
The fight continued on in this manner, both Claudius and the two dark elves are already giving their all in that battle. Both parties are risking their lives and going limb for limb as they continued to fight to the best of their abilities. With each of their attacks being intended to take the lives of their opponents. That is the kind of intensity that this fight has now heightened to. A point where the only outcome that they’re waiting for is the death of one or the other. Anything else than this cannot happen anymore. That being said, the focus of both parties are only on that fight. Everything else doesn’t matter to them and, for Claudius, this is more so. After all he’s already set up a barrier around that place which prevents outsiders from entering. This has been made with a binding vow that prevents any dark elf from coming in. He wanted to add other restrictions but, he simply doesn’t have the luxury of time to use up ten minutes to do so.Nevertheless, this works in his fav
