17 Treants Vs Gnome Riders III (1/2)

”Healing Aura.”

Nimble hastily created a cloud of green energy, surrounding both him and Adan. There was no time to lose. As soon as the spell took effect, erasing their wounds, the druid looked at the enemy with daggers in his eyes.

He was furious.

Theodore was his best friend and now the dryad killed him just as he tried to end the fight peacefully. At this moment, Nimble felt as if the world had completely turned against him.

Not only did he lost a fight over the woman he desired, but he had also been sent into a dangerous mission as punishment. Besides, the group had also accidentally wandered into fey held territory with disastrous effects.

Nimble felt really cheated, as paranoia started fueling his heart. Could all of this be a ploy of Lord Douwe and that Alston brat?

”This isn't good. I need to go back now more than ever. To think my precious Ella could end up being married off to such a despicable person. It's really important for me to go save her as quickly as possible.”

Thinking so, Nimble decided to use this anger. In order for him to go back and save his beloved, first, he needed to kill this dryad and its many minions.

”Victory is not impossible. If we fight desperately enough, there is still a chance.”

The druid stepped forth, increasing his speed gradually as he advanced towards the dryad. Somewhere along the way, his body began to undergo severe changes. First, his size, which increased fivefold. Than brown hair sprouted all over, leaving no skin visible.

In the end, Nimble's form gave place to a giant bear.

”ROOOAAAAARRRR!!!!!”

This was no ordinary beast. While beginner level druids could only transform themselves into common animals, as they progressed on their craft, this form would also be improved little by little.

Nimble hadn't turned himself into a bear. He turned himself into a personalized version of this beast, which carried great might.

But the dryad was now shielded because several treants took this opportunity to detour around the walls of fire, attacking through the south.

So, before he could strike against the main nemesis, first it was necessary to deal with those minions.

With a red glow, his sharp claws grew tremendously and one of the unattentive treants was slashed.

However, the damage wasn't too bad and the creature wasn't put out off combat.

But, as Nimble left to fight the others, many parasitic mooshrums sprouted from the wound.

In front of everyone's eyes, this enemy just withered away.

This was the effect of a particularly nasty spell, which was infused in Nimble's animal form, ”spore claws”.

One, two and three more enemies we're taken out of the fight.

It was now much easier to reach for the treants themselves, because at this point most animals had ran away. After all, the fire was spreading, making it very difficult for them to keep breathing.
