On the fifth floor, the boy almost died while facing the floor boss, and because of it, he bought a healing skill despite the pain in his pocket and skin.

The boy was amazed when he found himself in a forest in the sixth floor, but soon his sorprise became in worry when now he had to take attentions with archer in the trees.

With vigor, the boy face and cleaned a seventh floor with many traps and ambush, and with it experience without many problems also beated a eighth floor where the goblins have armors.

Taking him out of his comfort zone, the ninth floor implemented a grassland biome where many goblins were riding wolves, but his legion's lances could overcome this challenge.

And finally, the tenth floor tested his entire being by combining all the previous challenges into one floor that combined the biomes of forest and grassland.

A lot of regular and unarmed goblins.

Another batch of warrior goblins fully armored with weapons and leather armor.

Many Goblins archers.

Many Goblins riders.

Some Horse archers goblins, a new variant in this floor.

And many traps and ambush.

It wasn't easy if not the opposite, but the boy could beated all of those threat with effort and wisdom. And finally two days before the six month limit. the boy could to clean totally this floor only remained the final boss.

His last challenge and the last step to exit of this hell.

Fear, nervousness, and worry, weren't impossible for the boy to feel intensely in this moment.

But the boy had grown. He wasn't just a poor boy anymore. Through years of dancing with the dead, he had grown both physically and mentally.

So, more than a burden this emotions was a defense for him, a alert.

For this reason, when he saw a big wooden fortress in the middle of a vast grassland stretched out in front of him, he felt the taste of triumph.

And feeling this sense of triumph, the youth stood at the frontier between the forest and the grassland, extending his right arm to savor the moment and embrace all the experiences that had brought him here.

"Affff, it's time"

In this way, the young knelt with calm and determination and after with him, with a order his legion also knelt with him. And started to pray.

"Oh god."

And he started to feel pain.

"Your is the eternal glory."

"And yours going to be this victory."

"Before you, here I bow, A humbled and impure being, worthless of your glory and divinity"

He started to burn.

"Thank you for giving me the faith, the hope, the will, and the strength to fight and arrive until here."

"So, I ask you, please bless not only me, but also my faithful soldiers who, despite their lack of consciousness and will, have not only been my legs and my arms, but also have been my comrades in arms."

"AMEN!"

And with it, the boy of a jump, stood up, and spat with violence a bit a blood.

"SOLDIERS!, It's time for the GLORY!"

And with it declaration the boy invoke many temporal goblins toward to fortress to test it.

Soon, the young noticed that this fortress had archers at see that his goblins was died like flies agains the arrows.

"Ha, the expected" said the boy for later ordering.

"Come' on soldiers, have arrived the moment to have our first siege!"

So, with confidence the young and a legion formed by 54 goblins started to march toward the fortress.

34 permanents goblins, and 20 newbies and temporal goblins both full armored with weapon and armors formed this legion.

For this battle, the boy didn't have any siege engine, but although he would have it, he wasn't going to use it, as the fortress didn't have a door blocking the entrade.

[Fuck myself if I would enter there]

Thought the young in a before exploration when found the fortress.

And for that reason, for this occasion he decided to try have the final battle outside the fortress.

In this way, the boy waiting a front attack by part of the enemy formed his legion in the next way.

He made three walls: a central wall formed by ten rookies in front and ten veteran soldiers behind to support them.

sides of this wall, the young made two wall respectively formed by five rookies in front and ten veteran behind them.

Close to central wall were ten crossbowmen.

And behind to ones meters was the young sheltered by four veteran soldiers.

So, arriving to shooting area, the legion raised their shields to protect them from the arrows, starting the siege [https://img.wattpad.com/a0ee5fa0e8a1cac6b64cda1e12b87ba4872d08ef/68747470733a2f2f73332e616d617a6f6e6177732e636f6d2f776174747061642d6d656469612d736572766963652f53746f7279496d6167652f4c71742d7962626144434d5356413d3d2d313434313837383037302e313763613865306463646233613334343334303134383338323232382e6a7067?s=fit&w=1280&h=1280]

So, arriving to shooting area, the legion raised their shields to protect them from the arrows, starting the siege.

"Ha, what a joke. Crossbowmen, begin!"

Ordered the young crouched down and covered by shields, and at his order, his crossbowmen who also were covered by shields, took position between the two soldiers walls and started to shooting throught the little space between the soldiers.

In this way, bit a bit, the archers was going being defeat, until the siege arrived a new phease.

The young didn't believe that the enemy was going to stay inside the fortress forever. For this reason, bit by bit, the legion, at his orders, were moving slowly until they arrived at the entrance, closing it with a strong soldier wall, and immediantely the formation changed toward only one a big turtle formation.

This was risky, but for the young was riskier to wait be surrounder in middle the grassland.

So, after a while, the fortress launched a violent attack with many wolf riders, whose mobility was hindered by the lances and shields.

Fortunately, in the meantime, the corpses disappeared, so there was no need to move them to prevent the enemy from using them to scale the wall.

So, bit a bit, the buch of riders died without be usefull.

But the siege wasn't over yet. In places that the young couldn't see, was going appear lots and lots of enemies, supported by archers who attacked from the buildings.

It was hard, but the young managed to maintain his position by sacrificing all his rookies, four veterans, and two crossbowmen.

So, it reached a point where there weren't any enemies in sight for an hour.

The young decided took the risk and with his legion start to move inside the fortress.

As a precautionary measure, the young invoked around twenty false goblins to explore for traps and enemies.

In this way, while exploring, the scouts found traps and ambushes early on, allowing them to reach the main tower of the fortress without suffering any casualties.

There wasn't any army or archers, just three monsters sitting on thrones, each one waiting for him. Two hobgoblins, fully armored with leather armor and swords, sat on the side thrones, while their leader, an orc armored with only a two-handed war hammer, occupied the central throne.

"Fuck"

The young couldn't help but curse, but it wasn't going to change his situation, and without hesitation, he started the final battle.

Both sides attacked with all since the begin.

The young tried to divide his legion into three groups to take on their attacks separately, but the bosses only had one objective: him.

So, soon the young found himself surrounded by his soldiers while desperately giving instructions, invoking cannon fodder, and attacking.

Fortunately, fifteen of his soldiers was the elite that had survive from the six floor until now, and have the enough experience to give at hobgoblins many damage.

But on the other hand, the orc was a problem; his strength combined with his hammer meant that each hit resulted in a broken shield or a death.

For this reason, a lot of his invocations were going to be directed towards the orc.

In this way the battle continue with an intense rhythm but balance for both sides.

The two hobgoblins died at the hands of the soldiers, but in exchange, the young was left with only 10 soldiers and without any crossbowmen.

The battle was arriving at its end.

The orc gradually became uncontrollable, and the young's mind grew tired.

So, at one point, the orc, after shaking off the temporal goblins, immediately launched a descending attack at the young with his hammer.

The young, through reflexes, managed to avoid his attack by taking a small jump backward.

In that point he could order at his goblins attack him and continue the combat, but not.

He, desperated and for the sake of the victory, decided to take control of the battle and, taking a risk, he leaped towards the orc.

Quickly discared his sword, this was very thin and light to cut effectively the orc's hard skin.

He needed something bigger and heavier. For this reason, in the middle of his jump, with a quick movement, he grabbed his crutch which still had scythe blade with his right hand.

And with a horizontal attack, the young pierced his head with the blade tip, ending his life and with it, this floor.

"Ahhh yeah I did it."

Said the young in floor after to fall down.

"Fuck you, I bet you thought I was weak. But no! I exercise every day, hahaha."

"I stronger than my soldiers you know!. hahaha."

"hahaha"

"hahaha"

"I win"

"finally..., I win"

"Yes"

"At last, hehe"

The young started to crye

"ahhh, hehe"

"Thanks god."

"At last, this over".
