Chapter 287 - Fiery Buffalo (2) (1/2)

The boss almost had twice the size of the ordinary buffalo. Moreover, the fire in the tip of the horn was bigger than the other. Besides, the color of the fire was blue.

Without any notice, the buffalo's boss already charged towards the convoy. As the fire in the tip of the horn was blue, the boss was covered with a blue flame.

The guard's leader shouted, ”Prepare for battle!”

He went up to the front and unsheathed his weapon. The guard's leader also used [Charge] and went head to head with the buffalo.

Clang... The guard's leader's sword met with the buffalo's horn. However, the guard's leader's charge's power could not stop the buffalo's boss's charge. The guard's leader was pushed back by the buffalo.

And that was not all. The flame that shrouded the boss' body burned the guard's leader. The guard's leader lost some health every second. Fortunately, the cleric was ready. They already heal the guard's leader when his sword met with the boss.

The mage and the ranged damage dealer also help the guard's leader to suppress the boss. Meanwhile, only one other melee that helped the leader. It was because if all of the melees suffered the burn effect, the burden of the cleric would increase.

That was why they just waited near the boss and ready to attack when the boss' flame disappeared. Moreover, there were another two buffalo that haven't attack yet.

Following the boss's charge, the other two buffalos began to attack as well. The rest also split into two smaller groups to fight against the two buffalos.

”Kill the minion first!!” The guard's leader commanded.

With that command, the archers and the mages began to shift their attack from the boss to the minion.

It was easier to defeat the minion than the boss. Auron could use the previous [Earth Spike]'s trick to the minion. When Auron tried to use it on the boss previously, he failed.

The boss's body was too big and heavy. So, when Auron casts the [Earth Spike], it just lifted the boss several centimeters before destroyed.

This trick worked well with the other buffalo beside the boss. Auron used this trick when he faced the other buffalo. As Auron often used this trick, the other members began to realize that Auron was the one who cast the [Earth Spike].

SIlently, they revered Auron's capability to do something like that. The other mages had tried the same thing as Auron. Some of them even tried to ask Auron bluntly.

Auron, still with his cold nature, didn't hide how he did it. He explained how he did it. But, the theory was different from the practical. It was not easy to aim for a specific part of the target. This made the other mages revered Auron more.
