I instantly pierce head of the closest goblin. Just as they become alerted, I send them greeting with.

"Dark bolt!"

Another one less.

Second and Third make short work out of their respective goblins.

I leave them and start pushing goblins on the right.

Stab!

"Shkriee!"

As I killed third goblin I see that they started attacking as well.

Fire is everywhere on their side. Goblins are mostly surrounded by Fire walls on buss stop side.

I pressure them from the store side.

Two goblins charge at me, from two my left and right.

"Tricky bastards. Dark bolt." I send the one on the left flying with the Dark bolt while the other one tries to stab me.

Stab...Riiip.

While I keep stabbing the right goblin. Another one sneaks behind my back,

I only managed to move a little. His spear still stabbed me and ripped my clothes open while blood comes from the wound.

Next moment I see Third piercing the goblin from the back.

I look at bus stop.

First is headshooting every goblin who dares to close in.

The amount of enemies is thinning.

"Shkriee! Sharuk!" I hear a screech while goblin leader steps into the battle when he sees his subordinates loosing.

"Sharuk Kih!" He mumbles something and I see two arrows made of ice materializing above him.

They point at me.

"Shrukk!" He shouts and sends them.

My first time being attacked with magic.

Swoosh.

I dodge first arrow of ice stepping to the left.

Slam!

I dodge second arrow barely but as I think about charging I hear sound of bones cracking.

I turn.

"Fuck no!"

Arrow pierces leg of Third making him incapable of standing.

I start running to him as I see 3 goblins circling him and preparing to attack.

"Second protect him! First! Kill those three!" I shout madly.

Next instant arrow flies and kills one of the goblins.

Second attacks the other one.

But the third one closes in.

Third keeps stabbing in the direction of goblin to keep him at bay, but the goblin parries his spear easily and tries to stab him.

He rises his spear and prepares to pierce head of Third!

"Not this time! Dark bolt." I shoot it.

Goblin grins as if he anticipated that. He dodges and prepares again.

But just after I shoot dark bolt I halt and...

I use my spear as javelin and throw it with crazy strength.

Goblin then is impaled on a stake!

Life leaves his body as he drops his spear while his eyes dim.

I now, without any weapon run to Third.

As I want to help carry him to the store safely I see him crawl to the inpaled goblin.

He reaches his hand and I see goblin flesh disintegrating.

"What's going on?"

Skeleton now falls of my spear while it transforms into dust and then flying to the leg of Third and recovering it.

"Incredible." I mutter, so they can recover like that?

Third stands then while swaying to the sides, probably uncomfortable with new leg.

He gathers his shield and spear and runs to fight again while giving me glance.

Seconds then kills goblin that circled Third and joins Third while they work together to kill enemies.

As I think about Third I almost forgot about battlefield behind me.

The instant I turn back I see ice arrow flying towards my face.

I try to dodge, but it grazes my neck. Blood flows as I feel dizzy.

However I try to gather my strength and charge at goblin leader.

"Skhkriehehehe." Goblin leader laughs seeing me wounded, but starts retreating behind two of goblins protecting him as I charge.

The fight continues as I managed to kill one of the goblins with difficulty while the other one attacks me with support from goblin leader.

I dodge another ice arrow while stabbing goblin straight trough the eye.

Goblin leader tries to retreat again but I send him my greeting.

"Dark bolt!" He dodges but it buys me time to close in to him.

"Shkriesh!" He looks furious and tries to hit me wirh his wand.

I dodge as he attacks with ice arrow again.

I duck and it flies behind somewhere and he starts again.

But after second arrow shooting at me he looks dead tired.

"Too much spells huh? Eat this!" As he fails to concentrate due to fatigue I try to pierce him with my recovered spear.

"Shkrie!" He shouts and just in time my spears lands it pierces goblin who leapt to save him.

"Not this time fucker!" I push trough body of that goblin and pierce second time into chest of goblin leader!

"Shkrie..e?" He looks dumbfounded that I did it as his life flies away.

Level up!

I'm level 9 now, good.

I wipe my swat with arm as I observe those three situation.

"All enemies already dead? Magic sure is powerful."

I walk to them as they jump off the roof.

"So did you level up perhaps?" I ask.

"Yeah, we are both level 6 now."

"Good." I look at First and he too leveled.
