”You three…why do you still risk your life to protect this worthless life ofSol had thrown the rune-filled scabbard on the floor and his sas up high alongside his trusty Three Generals as they were being cornered at the steps of the throne Even though grey hair and age had gotten the best of hihter could not be underestimated as he did what he preached to the lected his training in the slightest
”Heh 'Worthless life'? Please your Majesty, after all the days of your past glory you still call it that? Then what shall the three of us say? Besides, you think ill allow you to die that easily? You still owe us a beer froht” Gladios, the Sword Goblin General joked At the sa with the Greatshile exposing the fearsohout his life Hisout of his body and for a fairly old goblin, he could hold his weight against five Orc Warrior Captains at their peak Most of the dead Orc bodies that scattered on the floor were his contribution Those were the ones the traitorous Royal Guards had sneaked into the Throne Hall through the secret passage
”It see is too lofty I bet he still thinks of us as the grunts he could beat up so easily in the past Let's reni, the Dagger Goblin General, unfolded his partial blindfold to reveal a bloodied eye Despite the fact that the other eye was perni was nicknamed the One Eye assassin before he obtained the title of Dagger Goblin General for killing ainst the Orcs He brandished his old daggers which were rumoured to have evolved into weapons with sentience
”Hahaha, If we don't protect you ive us in the afterlife” Argent, the youngest of the three Goblin Generals and most versatile in the ways of the spear, chimed in as he knocked on his shoulder with his prized experi his custo about his weapon was that it could gather s to use it as a projectile In an era with cold weapons, this gave hiarded it as a sacred treasure he had salvaged after fighting against one of the Orc Head Researchers who had experiical weapons Yet, Argent's fighting potential does not lie in the pistol but in co
”To think that the whole regiment of Royal Guards would be the ones to betray us all This is inexcusable Have you all forgotten your pride? I still rehted you hen I personally picked you out for this position!!! What have the Orcs enticed you with? Gold? Wo Sol shouted to the captains of the Royal Goblin Guards A lot of theuilt clearly written on their faces
”They promised us protection and salvation from the Black Disaster and the Red Hurricane! Us and our fari, the one he had sworn to protect What he did not dare to say were also the conditions that King Sol suggested An awful lot of money and women for their lustful desires
”You think that we are unable to defeat those famous Black Orc Generals, so you decided to betray us? Have you forgotten how hard your parents, your brothers and your fellow coain this independence? Are you not even willing to die for your own freedom? Instead, you'd rather cower under the feet of an Orc whichuseful?!” Argent cursed at them for their cowardice and knew the terrible acts Orcs had done to the past goblin sympathisers
”You cannot blaood tale for the history books But every tale will have to end someday So just accept the fall that you are about to experience” The hispered to all that were in the Throne Hall and a Black Orc began to ht in between both fronts while the distortion in the surroundings got stronger
”But you are right I have no use for cowards” The Black Orc sed frorey cape was floating around the Black Orc, but unlike ht red leather arht of which all Royal Guards trembled in fear
It was none other than the Red Hurricane
”Bleargh, I always knew the guards were useless Toobelong on the frontline, and not at the back to grow lazy” Gladios spit a rip on his Greatsword
”We have been living peacefully with the Orcs for decades We even aided you Black Orcs to reconstruct your kingdo Sol slaainst the Red Hurricane
”Does it even matter at this point? … Fine, if you wish to know a reason: Because you are too soft! Taking pity on your enemies when you should have wiped them out Don't worry My ill carry you in cold eain” He snapped his fingers and the captains around him were all struck by cones of air cyclones that appeared at his will Only their Leader could barely withhold it The re Royal Goblin Guards were paralysed by the horror of their captains being shred into pieces by a er
”This islike what you had promised us! We allowed you to the castle and you said that you would protect us!” One of the goblin royal guards shouted, but before he could sayaround his throat In an instant, a cut flashed through his throat and blood involuntarily sprayed all around his fellow Royal Guards This was uards could handle, they dropped their weapons and quickly knelt at the horrendous power that the Red Hurricane ielding while a vague greenish shadoas seen hovering above him
”The Avatar of Garuda I did not expect theht as he recognised the green shadohile ic barrier in front of his Three Generals The barrier shone brightly with rich ainst the Shaitan nobles
”To think they are back again” Argent felt agitated upon witnessing the Avatar of Garuda which the Red Hurricane was, appeared once ent knew that the Avatars of Shaitan nobles were not to be underestimated
”The Orcs have always been in contact with the Shaitan Kings and Queens! The Avatars of the Queen of Ice, shi+va! The Lord of Thunder, Syldra! And the Prince of Fire, Ifrit are currently conquering the other Goblin Kingdoms as we speak Soon this land! This nation! Nay! This world will belong to the Orcs and we shall reign supreainst those who oppose us!” The Red Hurricane bellowed
Yet, before he could relish the taste of his speech, the side s broke and a massive continuous blast of fire and ice were hurled towards the Red Hurricane which he blocked with some difficulty He had not expected this surprise attack and the fact that those were intertwined elemental attacks did not ureshis line of sight and headed towards him
Ripcaller did not hesitate to boost his speed with the Gearbox boots that he earing and ht shoulder while Slashreaver slipped in a cut to his lower left leg Nevertheless, the Red Hurricane blasted blades of air towards theoblins with auely see the e them better than those dead useless Royal Guard captains
”Ripcaller?! Slashreaver?!” The two fathers who caught a glihted that they were still alive The goblin sons then retreated into the barrier of King Sol to escape the continuous onslaught of air blade attacks by the Red Hurricane
”Heh, even the Avatar of Garuda can bleed What is there to be afraid of?” Slashreaver proclaimed as he clasped his hands and arms with his father, Gladios His father did not care about their circumstances He was just happy that his lost son had finally returned now and hugged Slashreaver tightly ”Aw man! My boy! Where have you been!?” Gladios asked with tears nearly e out from his tear duct
”Father” Ripcaller knelt down on one leg in front of his father Instead of acknowledging this with his usual nod, Igni pulled his son up and grabbed him close to his side ”Welconi said in a low and proud voice as he had just watched his son ent could not help but notice that his son was not with the two of them and assuent Worry not He is alive and well…he may even have done you proud!”
