Asher's face tightened at the sight of the orc appearing before them along with the other two orcs-one was seen holding a bow and the other was holding a large shield made of animal bones. All three orcs' gazes stared sharp and cold at Asher and the rest as if preparing to kill them all.
"Oh, no. Three orcs? How is this? One orc has already got us into trouble, but this time, three orc? Oh no, no. We can't fight all these orcs at all." Persea's body continued to tremble incessantly. "Come on, we, we have to escape from here. Save yourselves."
"It's useless to run away, these three orcs will chase us." Chronos drew his sword. "We must defeat these three orcs, now."
"Heh? Chronos, are you crazy? We, we will die if we try to fight them." Persea tugged on Asher's sleeve. "Come on, we have to get out of here."
Asher gently patted the blue fairy's hand. "Persea, calm down. I agree with Chronos' idea, that we should fight back. However, I need your help once again, Persea. Please use your scan skill so that we can get data on the other orcs."
"Ash, but, but..."
"Hurry up, Persea we need that data now."
"Uh, okay, okay. Scan!"
Orc Archer (Lv.9)
HP: 7000/7000
Mana: 100/90
Elements: none
Weakness: physical attack
Orc Guardian (Lv.9)
HP: 10.000/10000
Mana: 45/50
Elements: none
Weaknesses: physical attacks, magic attacks.
"Good, at least now we know each of the weaknesses of this orc." Asher stroked his chin. "My attacks seem to not affect defeating the orc archer, but not you, Chronos. Your punches can defeat that orc."
"That's right, let me handle the orc archer, Asher. I'll defeat this thing quickly."
"Alright, then I'll take care of the rest."
Just a few seconds later, the orc archer rained down several arrows on them. Chronos quickly deflected all the arrows and then darted quickly towards it, trying to slash at the creature. However, the archer orc's movements were quite agile, so he could easily dodge Chronos' attacks.
"Argh, dammit!" Chronos grumbled. "Don't run away you fucking creature!"

On the other hand, Asher fired his laser beam repeatedly at the orc warrior, but none of Asher's attacks managed to hurt the orc as the orc guardian protected him. Unfortunately, he was running low on magic energy and he had to do something before the orcs killed him.
"Damn, I must do something to separate these two orcs"
Asher then took out his bomb item and without any hesitation, he threw the bomb at the orc resulting in a sizable explosion. A thick cloud of smoke immediately filled the surroundings of the two orcs, making it difficult for both of them to see.
"Asher, what are you waiting for? Hurry up, use your laser light before this smoke clears."
"Wait, we have to make the orc guardian lower his shield, first. I'm sure it will take a while." Asher waited until the moment he was waiting for finally appeared. "Eat this damn thing, light rays!"
Asher's attack shot straight through the thick smoke and within seconds he had killed the orc guardian on the spot. The orc warrior with furious strides ran towards Asher, trying to kill him. However, Asher immediately fired the same attack back at the orc warrior until it was pushed far enough away to die within seconds.

"Ash, that’s amazing! You managed to kill both orcs with ease." Chronos smiled followed by his blazing eyes. "In that case, I won't lose. Take this, double slash!"
Chronos' slash successfully split the archer orc's body in two. Green liquid instantly gushed out of the creature's body, soaking the ground and instantly killing the last orc.

"Man, we almost died." Chronos let out a long breath. "But it's fun."
"Right and now we need to find-"
"Help! Help us!"
"Oh my, do you guys hear that?" Persea's face tightened. "I'm sure it must be the voices of the fairies being held captive by these orcs. Come on, we have to help them quickly."
They decided to follow the voice until they came to a tree in front of them. The tree looked tall - taller than the other trees around it, making it stand out from the rest.
"I'm sure up there, these damn orcs are holding the fairies."
"Yes, you're right, but look at the two orcs standing guard around the tree." Asher's face tightened. "We need a plan to defeat those two orcs."
While Asher was still thinking, Chronos suddenly darted straight to the two orcs without saying anything, launched his attack, and easily killed the two orcs. Asher who watched it could only shake his head, he simply did not expect that Chronos would do such a bold thing without any careful planning.
'Slash! Slash!

"Wow, nice attack, Chronos!" Asher slowly walked closer to the large tree and looked up. " Okay, now how can we save those poor fairies."
"This tree is very tall and there's no way we can climb up to save those fairies. It will take a lot of time and surely other orcs will come and will attack us."
"Uh, wait maybe I can fly and help all those fairies." Persea flapped her wings and flew upwards. "Uh, but it looks like we have another problem. The cages holding the fairies are stuck in tree branches." Persea pulled on the tree branches with all her might. "I can't. I can't drop this cage at all. I need you to shake this tree trunk."
Asher nodded his head. "Yes, we will."
Using all their might, Asher and Chronos shook the huge tree trunk continuously until the cage finally fell and instantly destroyed the cage. All the fairies inside the cage finally flew free like birds thrown out of their cages.
"Thanks to all of you, we're so glad you helped us." One of the caged fairies smiled, then with the other fairies returned to Altaria's village.
"Finally, now we just need to go back to the village of Altaria and tell them that we have successfully rescued the fairies."
"Yes, that's right. The fairy elders will be happy to hear this news."
However, all of a sudden, the sound of footsteps came so loud and grew louder and louder, causing the small pebbles around Asher to tremble incessantly. Shortly after, a large silhouette appeared in the thick fog around him. It looked roughly the same size as the large tree where the fairies were kept, leaving Asher and the others speechless.
"Oh my, what is that?"
