75 Chapter 75 : Goblins pt. “Quickly, grab the soft female!” A raspy voice screeched.

The goblins advanced towards Ella at full speed. With the dagger as her only weapon, she managed to stab and cut many of them, but they were slowly starting to outnumber her. She kicked the ones close to her feet and stabbed the ones that attacked her from above, but one managed to graze her arm with its long nails making her drop the dagger to the ground.

“Aaah!” Ella screamed as she clutched her arm that was now bleeding.

“Get her now!” A goblin screamed

Even with one arm injured, Ella was managing to dodge the the stubby little disgusting creatures and even managing to land kicks on some of them, but without a weapon and with her hand injured, she knew they would subdue her soon enough.

Adam jumped from the brunch and ran towards Ella, using his sword to clear his path and reach her. She was injured and had lost her dagger, if he didn’t get to her quickly they would capture her. More goblins blocked his path and Adam got ready to slice through them but was surprised when he couldn’t move his sword. He turned around and saw three goblins holding his blade and pulling it away from him, their blue blood drenching it. Adam tried to pull his sword away but lost his grip when six other goblins jumped on him and pinned him to the ground.

“The handsome one is down!” One goblin screeched, “now get the woman!”

“No! Ella!” Adam yelled but he was rendered immobile by the pile of goblins that were on top of him. He watched as the goblins jumped on Ella and pinned her down, trying frantically to tie her arms and legs.

“Save the buttocks for me!” Another goblin yelled happily.

.....

“Stay away from her!” Adam hit the ground hard with an open palm and large roots erupted from it, grabbing the goblins that were piled on top of him and flinging them away into the forest. He then got up and started running towards Ella, but another pile of the little creatures landed on top of him.

“This one has magic!” A goblin screamed, “kill him!”

Ella’s heart stopped when she heard those words. Kill? No, not again, she couldn’t lose him again. She couldn’t bare watching him die trying to protect her again.

“Don’t touch him!” Ella screamed in a loud voice that echoed throughout the forest. Her scream created a powerful force of wind that blew the goblins on her body and those within a three hundred meter radius away.

She stood up and glared at the goblins that had survived the wave of wind with red eyes. Her nails had lengthened and sharpened, and so had her fangs. Her ears became pointy and her hair was waving violently in the air with the fast moving air currents around her.

All the remaining goblins focused their gaze on the redhead who now looked more like a threat as compared to the others. They had two choices, run or take her down and eat her. It seemed that the latter was a more pleasing option for the stubby creatures, because they all left the other men and charged towards Ella.

Ella’s eyes narrowed at the goblin horde that was running towards her at full speed. She closed her eyes, took a long deep breath and released an ear bleeding scream.

Waves of energy escaped her mouth, flinging the goblins backwards and ramming them into the ground and some into nearby trees. The men around her covered their ears to prevent their eardrums from bursting as they ducked away from Ella’s devastating power.

Some goblins, those that weren’t killed by the impact, decided to tuck their tails between their legs and run away towards the forest. They had realized that in as much as they wanted to eat, they couldn’t do it if they were dead. This would be just another group of travelers who got away, more would come and they could feed on them instead. But for now, they had to get away from that monster of a woman.

But even though most of the goblins had fled, there were a few that still stubbornly remained and tried to attack Ella again. The redhead straightened her arm in front of them and spread out her fingers, with that gesture, a colony of large red eyed bats erupted from behind her like magic and flapped their large wings towards the goblins.

The stubby creatures screamed and cried in pain as the bats tore their flesh from their faces and limbs mercilessly. It was then that the goblins realized they could not win with this woman, she was a monster. Few managed to flee but many died from the wounds inflicted by the bats. When every last goblin was gone, the red eyed bats evaporated like mist into the air. The waves of energy that were whirling around Ella disappeared. Her nails and fangs retracted, and her eyes restores their sapphire blue color.

Adam got to his feet and flashed to Ella’s side when he saw her body going limp and swaying to one side, catching her and carrying her in his arms before she could fall. She was unconscious, most probably because she had used too much of her energy.

The other men walked slowly towards him, their mouths agape and their eyes as round as plates as they tried to contemplate what had just happened. That power that Ella had just exhibited, it was like nothing any of them had seen before. Even Zander who had encountered a few nosferatu or two was in shock, he’d seen people of her kind fight and showcase their abilities, but never like that. This woman was truly a force to be reckoned with.

Zander then cleared his throat, waking everyone from their shocked dazes, “We need to move,” he advised, “those goblins might return and if they do we don’t stand a chance.” He pointed to the north where there was a smaller trail than the one they had initially been following. “There are caves in a small hill in that direction where we can hide till we replenish our strength, it will take us only an hour to get there.”

The blond elf then walked towards Adam who was looking down at Ella’s face. He too looked tired. Zander had seen him use his magic during the fight, he really was the crowned elven prince. Only high elves, those of royal blood, could use such powerful magic, and even then, they needed years of training to hone it, but Adam had used it just now like he’d known how to use it for years. How remarkable.

“Allow me your grace,” Zander spoke with outstretched arms offering to carry Ella seeing how tired and worn Adam looked.

“Don’t touch her!” Adam hissed and cradled the woman close to his chest.

The answer made Zander retract his arms and take a step back.

“I’m sorry,” Adam muttered apologetically, “I’m fine, I’ll carry her.”

He was still extremely anxious after watching Ella being attacked by the goblins. When one of those creatures had slashed her arm, Adam’s chest had tightened to the point of almost losing his breath, he was terrified that he was about to lose her.

“Bring my horse,” Adam spoke softly, as if fearing he’d wake the beautiful redhead up, “I will ride with her to the caves.”

“Yes your grace,” Zander responded. He turned to the men and instructed them to gather any food and supplies they could find before heading out.

“I’m not taking orders from you Zander you’re an asshole!” Ivan grambled, “you were about to leave me to be those foul creatures’ breakfast!”

Zander tapped Ivan’s shoulder, “goblins don’t eat promiscuous men, they believe it ruins the meat.”

Ivan looked at Zander wide eyed as he walked towards the horses and huffed angrily. “You blonde bastard,” he muttered under his breath.
