Klou: -50
May: -30

(Hint: The crystal is a weak-point)

The skeleton continued to stare Klou down with with its green glowing orbs, its grip not going to loosen until no more life was felt. This monster showcased no signs of emotions, just a urge to kill. It was not supposed to be here, not supposed to be attacking low-tier adventurers...but the dungeon did not always care about rules. With Klou's resistance waning, the skeleton began to raise its spear to chest-height. The end was here.

A wailing, high-pitched scream came from the skeleton as May struck as its skull. Cracks formed in the pastel white surface until at last a chip fell off, revealing a iridescent stone within much like the kind monsters dropped. With some strength, the skeleton tossed Klou onto the ground to focus on May. A hard, wooden staff struck May in the side while also knocking her back several feet as it turned around and swung. Now its back was to Klou as it moved towards May, creeping along at its slow pace as both bony hands clasped around the staff of the spear. From Klou's position, she could see where May had been bashing on the skull and the sparkling, dull light that came from the crystal within.

HP: -10

Blood spurt from the first goblin's chest as the blade raked across its chest, the body turning into ash as it crashed into the ground behind. The next goblin came in swinging but you were able to strike first, the blade of your katana piercing its weak hide and coming through the other side. Blood splattered across the ground behind it as well as a small drop from your cheek, it seemed the goblin just managed to catch the top of your cheek-bone. The wound was not deep in the slightest however.

As you finished, Amrec took care of the last two goblins that hadn't been caught in your spell. Effortless he decapitated the first and grabbed the arm of the second as it tried to swing and snapped it, then brought an axe down its chest. Briefly he looked at you with a nod as the remaining goblins seemed to recover from the effects of your spell. However, judging by their slowed movements they were not in good shape.

Amrec seemed to smirk as he looked at them and threw his axes to the ground, the blades sticking into the hard dirt. His hands raised into a fighting position and he shuffled forward. The closet goblin tried to slash upwards, which Amrec quickly dodged to the right and followed through with a hard right jab. The jaw of the goblin could be heard breaking just before he combo-ed with a swift gut punch that put it down. His moves were hardly graceful like a martial artist but his heavy hits seemed to be doing the job just fine. A trio goblins seemed to understand it was you that cast the spell, and went directly for you.

Mare: MP -10, HP -25

Misha did not reply as her struggle continued with the special kobold. It seemed ready to tear free from her hold as Mare arrived and drove the spear through its back though its thick hide prevented it from going all the way through, blood dripping onto Misha below. Wounded and sensing a greater threat from the Mage, the kobold began to pulled off of Misha. As lightning coursed through its body, it muscles locked long enough to for Mare to finish with stabbing its knees. The kobold fell backwards onto the ground, and Misha got up as fast as she could. The spear was taken from Mare's hands as Misha placed the tip above the monster's chest and plunged it deep into its flesh with a deep breath. A sizable stone was left as it was vanquished. She looked down at her blood soaked clothing with a pout after catching her breath [color=f26522]"Now I'm gonna have to take a second bath..."[/color] She lamented, apparently not phased by how much danger she had just been in. There was not much time to recover as the fourth kobold and its wounded partner came charging for the two of you.

A crude dagger bounced off the metal as the goblin swung at Renji, before being lifted and tossed it towards another. The weight of its friend knocked both of them to the ground, but the other goblin was relatively unscathed. The same could not be said for the other two as the kick connected squarely with the temple of the goblin, eliminating it with the critical strike. A choking sound came from the next goblin as its windpipe was crushed, dropping its weapon in response. The goblins on the ground rose up as this happened and came for Renji once more.

[@CriticalHit]

The goblin targeted by Noctis's spell moved like it was walking instead of running like it previously was, letting the other one move far ahead of it on their path to Noctis. Priscilla had not budged from her position and even though you could not directly see it, you knew that she was studying how you fought and evaluating every move made. After all, that was why she was here.

The unimpaired goblin came at you with reckless abandon, trying almost desperately to either stab or cut you. However a single goblin is an enemy that even new adventurers can take on with near certainty. None of its pathetic attacks managed to land before your dagger sank into the greenish flesh, the limbs of the goblin going limp briefly before vanishing into black dust. The other goblin, still impaired by the spell, moved nonetheless towards Renji. It was the last target before Noctic's first official victory could be claimed and evaluate by the stunning Winter Maiden.
