“ Lord , can we handle that thing ? “
Jamie was as surprised about it as they were, no matter the situation a normal grade village boss shouldn’t be so damn strong .
Something was weird with that lizardman .
“ Don’t panic, gather around and ready your shields “
Seeing that their lord was not frightened, they all picked up their shields and walked in front of him . Even Finnan who was sent flying by the monster got up quickly and took position .
“ Dont be mistaken by his appearance, the poison has invaded his body as well which is why he will go berserk and attack us with all he has . You cant escape him or outrun him he can obviously use magic “
Jamie had to make it clear to them to prevent deserters , it was only their first battle after all .
“ Ready yourselves , he’s coming .
SHIELD WALLLL “
All soldiers placed their shields next to each other and covered them with all the aura they could use , a 4 metres wall made of aura appeared in front of them .
“ Will this be enough lord ? “
“ Land a hit when he comes to attack , the pain sensors will stop him from using full force “
With eyes red from madness and anger, the giant lizardman raised it’s tail and slammed it on their aura wall .
** BOOM **
The wall weakened considerably due to some soldiers being pushed by the blow, if they didn’t get up quickly their cover would be done for .
“ Get them up quickly Ralph “
Ralph forcefully grabbed their bodies and helped them to stand up , soon they re-joined to activate the shield wall .
“Ready yourselves men “
Just as the lizardman was about to hit their wall again , Jamie summoned a rock shard on his palm and shot at him .
The attack of course couldn’t pierce through his back but he was sure that it hurt him .
When it’s tail hit the wall they all rejoiced as the impact wasn’t as huge as the previous attack .
“ Open Wall “
2 men lowered their shields and doing so opened a small window in their aura wall .
“ Pierce through “
At his order they all attacked with their spears piercing through the lizardman’s back .
** KIYACHHH * *
The painful and ugly scream the monster released showed that it was in pain .
If they managed to land a few more shots it should gain them enough time for the poison to get it done .
“ SHIELD WALL “
The 2 soldiers raised their shields again and prepared for the impact .

** BOOM **
Finnan and another one was sent flying again , the lizardman attacked so quick that they couldn’t even fully react .
“ Lord why didnt you use your magic to cause him pain “
Jamie forgot to tell him that his skill couldn’t be used that quick , he is just a second stage warrior after all .
“ Get them back up “
Ralph didn’t like that he couldn’t do anything but lift the soldiers back up .
He wanted some action, his blood was boiling but he also knew that he was too weak to face that monster.
“ SHIELD WALL “
At Jamie’s orders they activated their aura wall again , Jamie hit the lizardman with his rock shard and weakened the impact .
“ OPEN WALL , and PIERCE THROUGH “
They continuously repeated the same tactics and the lizardman continued to scream every time they pierced through , but he just wasn’t going down .
“ You would think the poison would have done it’s thing by now “
“ Don’t give me that look Ralph, it’s not my fault now is it ? “
World was a mean place, the one who gives the orders is the one who takes the blame .
“ SHIELD WALL “
This time the lizardman snapped out of it, his red eyes and berserk mode seemed to be ‘ finished ‘ , so contrary to what they were expecting he didn’t go and attack their aura wall .
His long tail slammed the fountain and broke the refined stones into pieces .
“ What’s he doing this time ? “
Jamie was losing it at this point, he just wanted to scream so badly at this monster’s corpse . This fucker should have been dead by now !
The lizardman grabbed one of the shattered stones with his hand and threw it towards them , the impact didn’t even make the aura wall shake .
“ Did this guy get dumber ? His tail attacks were much more dangerous “
He grabbed two more stones , and the most absurd thing they had ever seen happened . The monster slammed the stones against each other and as if they merged together a bigger stone was created .
“ WHAT THE ACTUAL FUCK “
He threw the bigger stone at them and this time the impact was a lot bigger .
Just what was that skill , Jamie had never seen such absurd skill before. Even a dumb lizardman could become this strong with that skill, imagine if it fell in his hands.
“ Those rich kids wont even compare with me if I get my hands on that “
“ Get your hands on what, lord ? “
“ Ignore him Finnan , he talks to himself every once in a while “
Greed was filling him in, he had to take action before the lizardman hit them with an even bigger stone .
“ Ralph, can you break his balance ? “
“ Do you mean ,like tackle him? You flatter
me lord but unfortunately I’m not that big”
“Your new skill idiot, cut kick was it ? “
His facial expression changed as if he had received enlightenment, his face regained his battle thirsty smile and he ran towards the monster.
“ Give me a trident , quick “
Finnan obeyed Jamie and gave him his without asking as he saw his desire to make a run for it .
Ralph knew that slashing his chest and then kicking him from the front would be like a dog trying to kick a house , his only chance to hurt him was from the back where the lizardman was injured.
“ I bet those spears caused u a lot of damage “
** SLASH **
Half of his tail was cut and fell down , but even though it was cut it didn’t stop moving . It kept bouncing around like a headless chicken .
“ DO It now “
Before the monster could turn to see its tail, Ralph kicked its back with his remaining strength and broke his balance which caused him to fall ‘face down’ .
Jamie who had made a run for it around the same time Ralph did , jumped as high as he could and covered with purple aura the trident that was clearly ‘ too big for him ‘ .
Everybody’s hopes were on him, they were too exhausted to continue fighting .
If this attack didn’t kill the monster they would just give up and accept their fates .
“ That skill will soon be mine “
The trident pierced through his neck from behind and came out of his throat .
It was now covered on green and ugly liquid which he guessed it was its blood , and before he could muster the strength to stand up . The announcement was heard !
