[center][h2]Rentarou "Ren" Kusabe[/h2][/center] Ren watched in awe at the flurry of attacks the other kids has started to throw at the Kobold Lord. The two Asian girls lead the charge, each taking turns in landing a direct hit at the monster. The kid with weird puppets started to cast ice magic at it, encasing the Kobold Lord in a gigantic sheet of ice, making the monster unable to move. The girl with the dagger, on the other hand, started to make her way towards the Kobold Lord's back waiting for an opportunity to strike. "[i]At this point, it's regenerating ability should have a hard time keeping up with the damage it's taking.[/i]" Ren thought, sending one arrow towards a Kobold Underling charging towards the puppet guy, the arrow connected, which immediately killed the target, "[i]Damn, I'm not bad at this either.[/i]" He thought, feeling a little proud of his skills. "[i]Trigger Slash![/i]" Shouted the old Knight right beside Ren. A bluish light suddenly shot from the Knight's sword, cutting 3 Kobold Underlings in front of him. "Focus now, lad! You don't want to get bitten by any of these buggers!" "U-um, y-yes sir!" Ren's completely forgotten about him. The old Knight looked battered. His once shiny armour, now covered in dirt and blood, he even lost his helmet. Ren noticed all the injured Knights are now huddled together in one place, and around them are piles of dead Kobold bodies. "[i]Did he do all this by himself?[/i]" Ren thought admiring the old Knight's work, "[i]He's been protecting the injured ones all this time.[/i]" For some reason, Ren's first opinion about the Knight is starting to change. [center]________________________________________[/center] The remaining Knights that can fight has flocked over to the 2 foreigners who lead the charge of the attack. The Knight with a huge shield took the vanguard while the Priestess supporting the rear. "Shields! Divert its attention from the Casters!" Shouted the Knight, raising his shield at the ready. "Support the foreigners at all cost!" The remaining Casters fall in line behind the Knights and started to chant. "[i]Lesser Blessing![/i]" "[i]Lesser Protection Energy![/i]" "[i]Arcana Boost![/i]" "[i]Mana Essence![/i]" [i]"Penetrate Up![/i]" "[i]Lesser Acceleration![/i]" "[i]Lesser Healing![/i]" Each kid glowed a different colour at the mention of the spells, each raising their stats one after the other. Once the Caster's done with the support spells, they started chanting offensive spells directed at the monster. A wide volley of spells began to fill the sky — ice, fire, water, light, and more others. [center]________________________________________[/center] Ren felt his body respond to the spells that were casted on him. He can feel a new surge of energy welling within him, a tingling feeling right in his stomach. He can feel his strength and speed increased by a fraction, his senses heightened, everything from a mile away seems so much clearer. "[i]So this is a buff spell, huh? Alright, let's try this.[/i]" Ren took an arrow from his quiver. He can almost feel every fiber in the bow string tighten as he pulled, and for some reason Ren can tell which way the wind is blowing, and how strong it is. He is more focused now. "[i]The chest. Right where the heart is.[/i]" Ren breathed slowly. It almost seems like he gained binoculars with x-ray vision, he can clearly pinpoint where the monster's vital points are from the distance. "[i]And then... Shoot.[/i]" With a loud '[i]ffwisssh[/i]", the arrow sailed through the air with so much force it left a streak of black line mid-air, ravaging everything it passes through. After a heart beat, the arrow connected to its target with a loud crack. It pierced right through the Kobold Lord's chest, leaving a gapping hole from where it hit. The others started to do the same — direct hit towards the chest and the head. At this point, there was no time to regenerate its lost parts. The Kobold Lord let out a final howl of despair, shuddered and then fell face first into the ground. The Knights all cheered in excitement, even those injured ones. Ren heard the old Knight say thanks to the gods, and then gave Ren a reapproving smile. "It's finally over?" Ren asked out loud, the thought of them defeating a monster, much less a boss level, hasnt sinked in yet. "Indeed, lad. Indeed." The old Knight reassured him.
