Chapter 122: Attack On Goblins 7: Test Run

Lenore stabbed her rapier thrice into the chest of the Hobgoblin she had grabbed by the neck, he or rather she was the head of the scouting party that was moving on to come find out about what was happening with Jorgen's army. Unfortunately for her, the larger goblin army was being watched right from the beginning, so when the scouting party was moving ahead, they fell in an ambush that Lenore was all too happy to set for them. it was a beautiful massacre, all fifty of them had been caught off guard, and Lenore was still enjoying the throes of it.

She looked at the hobgoblin, completely surprised that she was still finding a way to hold, but that could only happen for so long as Lenore smiled with her teeth in full display, before slowly stabbing her rapier underneath the jaw of the goblin, watching in abject pleasure and ecstasy as the hobgoblin fade away with pain and horror etched allover her visage. this was a success, a rather beautiful one.

"Well I'm happy you've found an outlet for your appetite Lenore, being a bloody butcher of the battlefield seems to suit you more than being the bitch of some unworthy noble." A voice spoke up from behind her, seemingly appearing from thin air. Lenore smiled as she answered.

"Well your majesty, what use is life if you can't enjoy the finer things it has to offer." She asked as turned to face Rezar who was leaning against a tree, a pair of strangely shaped swords held in his hands, and even more so for the fact that their blades, was pitch black.

"I wouldn't consider killing and enjoying the process of it one of the finer things in life, it's more like a necessity to get to your goals, not a pass time you get to enjoy." He said as he moved towards her, Lenore furrowed her eyebrows as she asked.

"Are you judging me and my methods…. Your Majesty?" her voice had a dangerous edge to it, and while Rezar was not afraid of her, things could turn out ugly for their alliance if he gave the wrong answer. But he still had to be honest.

"There's nothing wrong with your methods Lenore, I'm just saying you need to get another hobby, and don't enjoying killing so much, it makes you ugly." Lenore was taken aback by his choice of words, but never the less it brought a smile to her face as she watched him go past herself.

"Well I want to keep the undead on standby, if you will be so inclined how about you follow me and let's charge into the enemy's camp." Rezar said to her as he moved his head around the trees that were now stained with the blood of very dead goblins.

"And why would we do that?" Lenore asked as Rezar raised the recently dead goblins as Zombie undead and had them join the ranks of the remaining 300 Lenore had led here.

"Well as you can see I have a new weapon I would love to go test and pump full of the souls of my enemy. I see you're angry for bloodshed, so let's go on a date. With flesh for food and blood for wine, trusty me; it'll be fun." Lenore blinked her eyes shrugged her shoulders and then said.

"Okay."

Rezar smiled as he took off running, his form breezing through the forest, Lenore kept up with him, but with a little help as Lightning coated her boots. About five minutes into the run, the first signs of the marching army came into view. The soldier as the forefront of a long caravan quickly opened his mouth to shout when Rezar shot his right arm forwards, and much to the surprise of Lenore, the weirdly carved blade of his swords, shot out of the handle, a chain of dark blue with sharp serrated edges connected to it.

The blade stabbed through the Hobgoblin and swiftly into the chest of another Boar rider behind him, Rezar turned and gave Lenore a smile before the chain retracted, but instead of dragging the body back to Rezar, it dragged Rezar to the body of the Hobgoblin, and just in time for Rezar to cut of his head, bathing in a spray of blood that Lenore was not remiss to say made the valley between her legs tingle.

[Bat Apparition]

Rezar's form seemed to vanish into a cloud of bats as he surged forwards before landing in the center of the army's procession. He shifted back as a spear was sent to his face, he let the Khopesh in his left arm dance through the air and spilt the head of the Goblin that just stabbed at his head in half, cutting it from check to check and the angle slanted due to how shot the goblin was.

The felt blades cut into the cloak he had on, but the were unable to find purchase due to them not generating enough force and the cloth being armor on its own. Rezar stretched his hand out and spun himself really fact, forcing the blades to shoot out from their handles and stab more than a dozen goblins at a time. Then he heaved, using every last drop of power in his body to begin spinning, this time the bodies hanging on the chain served as a bludgeoning material to smash other goblins, and for those unlucky enough to meet the edges of the chain or the blades of the Khopesh itself, this was pure torture, if they were unlucky enough to survive it.

[Strike of Nothingness]

Using an attack skill when he had already attacked, it was not normal and it was crazy, but he did so and the souls of every goblin he had hurt floated into the air. Rezar smiled as he gave the mental order for Vita Gratia to absorb the souls, then he pulled back on the chains, retracting them back into their sword forms and then clicking the end of both swords together to form their staff form. He ignored the huge explosion that happened behind him, taking pleasure in the smell of burnt flesh as Lenore worked her magic.

He spun the staff, causing the blade to let out a whooshing sound, before he placed it behind him and pointed his palm at the shocked goblin army in front of him. Then he raised his hands to them and made a 'come on' motion, the smile on his face even more scary than the weapon in his hands.
