Frick and the Evil God Worshippers were in a heated fight with Doranâs Nigel Knight Order and the Elvish Warriors.
Frick stretched out his hand.
Jailaâs Flames of Eternal Suffering!
A giant, 4 meter wide scarlet fireball flew from his hand.
Doran quickly swung his Spiritâs Sword.
Mother Natureâs Aura!
Boom!
The two respective energies clashed head-on, resulting in a shockwave that spread in every direction.
Frick raised his head and stared at Razul. âHaha, Razul. You heard the great Jailaâs voice, didnât you? Youâve become one of our brothers.â Frick welcomed him.
âThatâs right. I serve Lord Jaila now.â Razul nodded his head.
âRazul!â A furious voice resounded throughout the battlefield. The voice belonged to Doran!
Razul was his mortal enemy, the one who burnt his peopleâs village to the ground! He swung the Spiritâs Sword, aiming for Razulâs neck.
âHmph.â Razul swung his scimitar in turn. The power of annihilation spread outwards.
Doran quickly borrowed the spiritsâ power to create a shield.
However, the power of annihilation too easily shred through the barrier. No, it completely destroyed it.
âDamn.â Doran quickly retreated.
The power of annihilation devoured the ground and air where he once stood. Seeing that, Doran pressed his lips into a thin line.
âMm.â If heâd been just a little slower, then he wouldâve been in trouble.
Doran and the Nigel Knight Order couldnât approach him recklessly due to the power of annihilation.
âHoh, so thatâs the power that Jaila bestowed upon you,â Frick said.
âThatâs right. This is the power of annihilation!â
âItâs powerful. By the way, why were you asking me to save you just now?â
The first thing Razul had said when he got here was âSave me.â.
âImpossible. The power was granted to you by the great Jaila, yetâŠâ
ThenâŠ
âHey, are you done running now!?â
Kang Oh arrived.
âItâs him.â Razul pointed at Kang Oh, and Frick briefly looked him over.
âI see, a follower of a false god. Youâve just received your power from Lord Jaila, so heâs too much for you to handle.â
The Evil Godâs followers believed that Jaila was the one true god. Thus, any god aside from him was a false god.
âThe power of annihilation didnât work on him.â
âThatâs because you havenât learned how to use it properly yet,â Frick said.
âIt seems that way.â Razul nodded his head.
âAlright. Iâll take care of him. You slaughter the elves. It seems like the power of annihilation works on them.â
Frick confidently walked in front of Kang Oh. âFollower of a false god, prepare to die.â
âWho the hell are you?â Kang Oh asked.
âI am Submission Frick, one of the disciples that follow the great Jaila!â
âThat so? Then letâs go!â
Words were no longer necessary.
Kang Oh and Frick clashed.
Sometime laterâŠ
âWhy are you so weak?â
Bam, bam, bam, bam!
Kang Oh was whacking Frick with Ubistâs wide blade.
âUgh!â
Frickâs smile mask fell off, revealing his glamorous face; at the same time, he screeched like a pig as Kang Oh pummeled him.
* * *
When he first met Frick, Kang Oh assumed that the battle would be a tough one.
Not only was he one of the Evil Godâs Disciples, but he was strong enough to simultaneously engage both Doran and the Nigel Knight Order.
Their fight, however, resulted in Kang Ohâs overwhelming victory.
Kang Oh was Frickâs natural enemy!
Frickâs specialty lay in mind control or mentally confusing his targets, but these were completely ineffectual on Kang Oh.
The Demonic Swordsman class possessed extremely high resistance to curses and mental attacks. To add to that, Kang Ohâs Mental stat was really high, and Rakanâs blessing was further protecting him from mental attacks as well.
Frickâs other specialty, the Evil Godâs wicked magic, was nothing before his magic absorbing demon sword!
How surprised must he have been when he saw Ubist absorbing Jailaâs flames!?
His only other option was swinging his whip around, but Kang Oh was overbuffed, so it didnât even phase him.
As a result, Kang Oh easily overpowered Frick and whacked him again and again.
âDie, you punk!â
Bam, bam, bam!
The sound of his sword bashing on Frickâs body resounded throughout the battlefield.
âUgh.â
âOoooh!â
The Evil God Worshippers that bore witness shook, while the allianceâs warriors exclaimed with joy.
âAs expected.â Kang Oh grinned.
There was a reason he hadnât finished Frick off, content with just beating him again and again. To make his enemies fear him, and to raise the morale of his allies!
âWhat the hell are you doing!? Save Frick!â Razul yelled.
Only then did the Evil God Worshippers regain their composure and begin attacking Kang Oh. The nearby monsters began to gather around them as well.
Then, Doran stepped forward. âKang Oh has defeated Frick! Protect him! Push the Evil Godâs followers back. The spiritsâ blessing is with us!â
âUoooh!â The allianceâs warriors charged at the Evil God Worshippers and their monsters.
The battle looked completely different now. The allianceâs warriors were overwhelming the Evil God Worshippers and their monsters.
Seeing one of the Evil Godâs Disciples, Frick, get beaten down like a dog had raised their spirits tremendously.
On the other hand, the Evil God Worshippers had lost their commander, so they didnât know what to do.
âGrr, donât panic and get back into formation! Our main priority is rescuing Frick!â
Razul quickly took command over the Evil God Worshippers in place of Frick. Heâd once been the Troll Great Chieftain after all.
âHuahp!â He unleashed the power of annihilation at Kang Oh once more.
However, Kang Oh used the Great Sword of Victory to cleave right through it.
âGrr.â Razul stomped on the floor.
âNigel Knight Order, protect Kang Oh!â Doran said, and the Nigel Knight Order completely surrounded Kang Oh.
âGrr! Grr!â Nothing was working out for him. As of right now, rescuing Frick was impossible. âEveryone, follow me. Weâre joining up with Helga!â
Ultimately, Razul chose to gather up their remaining troops and join forces with Helga. He had no other choice.
âYouâre running away again!?â Kang Oh mocked.
Razul gritted his teeth, doing his best to ignore Kang Ohâs jeers. With no other choice, the Evil God Worshippers followed after Razul.
âPlease take care of him,â Doran pointed at Frick and said.
âUnderstood.â Kang Oh nodded his head. Doran then turned around.
After all, theyâd gone through so much to win this battle!
They had to seize this opportunity.
âFollow them. Kill them all!â Doran forcefully yelled.
âUwaaaah!â the allianceâs warriors exclaimed, and pursed the Evil God Worshippers.
âUmph, I should go too.â Kang Oh grabbed Frickâs wrist, and began dragging him across the ground.
It was still too soon to kill him. He could still be of some use; they could use him to raise morale!
Kang Oh strode forward.
Whoosh.
The wind blew.
The winds of victory, that is!
* * *
Stab!
The tentacle pierced Mumugulâs neck. Spurt, spurt. Some kind of liquid flowed through the tentacles and injected itself into Mumugulâs neck.
âUgh.â Mumugulâs eyes turned inside out.
âMumugul!â Asuka cried out. However, he couldnât afford to go out and help Mumugul. After all, he was surrounded by the two-headed mutant Volcaines.
âNo!â Balduk didnât have that problem. He rushed forward like a mad bull and swung downwards with his spiked mace.
Whack!
His mace cut deep into the tentacle. However, he couldnât cut through the entire thing.
Swish.
Another tentacle came flying at Balduk, but he didnât retreat.
Pulverize! Pulverize! Pulverize!
He swung his mace, deflecting any tentacles coming at him, and finally managed to cut the tentacle off Mumugul.
Plop.
Mumugulâs body, which had noticeably swelled, fell to the floor. He didnât get back up.
Snort!
Balduk snorted, carried Mumugul on his side, and got out of the tentaclesâ range.
âMumugul, Mumugul! Are you alright!?â Balduk slapped his cheek a few times, and shook his body.
âHuah, huaah.â
Fortunately, Mumugul had survived. However, he wouldnât be able to fight anymore.
âVasera.â
âYes, sir.â
As soon as he called for him, the gold rank mercenary came over.
âMove Mumugul to a safe location. If we canât end the war here, then weâll need his leadership skills in the future.â
âUnderstood.â Vasera draped Mumugulâs fat body over his shoulder and left the battlefield.
âThanks, Balduk!â Asuka said as his axe embedded itself in a Volcaineâs stomach.
âThe situationâs not looking too good, General,â Balduk said while striking the face of a Helpara.
âMm.â Asuka was well aware of that fact.
The orc army, Baldukâs mercenary squad, and his own warrior squad were struggling.
However, things were worsening by the minute. At this rate, their forces would be annihilated.
âRetreat. Retreat!â Balduk quickly repeated. He agreed with Asuka; retreat was the best option here.
âUhahaha. Where do you think youâre going!?â Helga laughed crazily and extended his tentacles in every direction.
âRun!â
âHurry up!â
Asuka and Balduk did their best to repel the monsters in order to save as many warriors as they could.
The Destroy the Evil God Worshippers Alliance escaped like an ebbing tide.
At that momentâŠ
Razul and the Evil God Worshippers appeared.
âOoh, Razul. Our new brother. You came at a good time.â
Razulâs sudden appearance made him extremely happy. He was hoping that Razul and the Evil God Worshippers would cut off the allianceâs escape.
âThis isnât good. Run even faster!â
âRun away. Donât look back!â
Whereas Asuka and Balduk became desperate. If Razul and the Evil God Worshippers cut off their escape route, then theyâd be finished.
However, the situation quickly turned around.
âUwaaaah!â
The allianceâs warriors that were chasing after Razul and the Evil Godâs followers had arrived!
âGeneral Asuka, whatâs going on?â Balduk stared at Asuka.
âThe tides are turning!â Asukaâs eyes glinted. He then turned around. âDonât retreat! Reinforcements have arrived! Form up around me!â
The retreating warriors stopped. Hearing of reinforcements gave them confidence once more!
They were empowered by the reinforcementsâ cries as well.
âWhat is going on?â Helga grimaced, though no one could see it underneath his beast mask. âRazul!â Helga yelled, as if scolding him.
Razul and the Evil God Worshippers quickly gathered around Helga. Meanwhile, the reinforcements, led by Doran, joined up with the main force.
âTheyâve captured Frick,â Razul said.
âWhat?â Helga said furiously.
âA follower of a false god defeated him. The power that Lord Jaila gave me didnât work on him. And Frick was captured by him as well,â Razul quickly explained.
âIs Frick dead?â
âWhen I tried to save him, he was definitely still alive, but right now⊠Iâm not so sure.â
âMm.â
However, they were soon able to ascertain Frickâs condition.
âUooooh!â the alliance forces exclaimed.
Helga and Razul turned their heads. They could see it.
