Moving like a blur and taking the first one down, Skarsneek didn't even hesitate as he moved to the next one. Twin clubs were already in motion, twirling one as a way to distract while the other shot forward like a snake. Hit the one of the initial trio right in the gut before the other came to the back of the neck, enough force to knock the breath and give a shock down to the spine.

Once that was done, he swirled around to see more coming out from the inn. The one that took his attention the most was the ones at the window.

Snarling, he'll leave the ones swarming out to his wife. All of them bunched up just like that was a prime target.

So instead of retreating, Skarsneek dove forward instead. Knowing full well that he only had moments before the archers start firing.

Once close enough that the archers can't risk shooting their own, Skarsneek then slide with his knees forward and back to the ground. Low enough that he shot past all of them and even going past one between their legs. His clubs batting any spear that attempted to skewer him as quick jabs to the knees, thighs and heels burst outwards when he saw the chance.

A combination that at the very least, get them to slow down or hamstring then enough for a good follow up.

[color=ed145b]"Now!"[/color] Skarsneek yelled before propping his club to propelled him forward for extra range, hoping that Atsuha would be able to trap all of them. Or at least, enough that they're inconsequential. Hinami probably can handle two, same with Atsuha.

As for him? He was diving right into the inn for the archers and that woman, she had no weapons yet still had enough authority to command them. She was either a handmaiden or servant, which meant that she knew something.

Once past the inn doors, Skarsneek dove into one of the archers, his clubs twirling to intersect any arrows before lashing out a brutal strike to the gut first before another follow up to the knees. His senses sharpened to its extreme as he chased the other archer around. Using anything to distract them as he closed the distance quickly.

The moment he's done, Skarsneek begun his chase for the woman. While his nose was now where sharp as that brute of an orc, it was enough that he can track her.

The journey was quick and quiet as they finally reached the base, idly, Gringor felt a little smug since he managed to actually reach his destination and not fumbled around. After all, he had thought that he had taken a wrong turn somewhere but he pushed that aside. It all worked in his favor.

Though when they arrived, seeing the sight of a battle had him in the thrills, so much so he moved forward with no regard.

So it was with utter disappointment that when he reached there, it was already over and done. Sighing, he moved towards Shizuka and Io.

[color=f7941d]"So was the fight fun?" [/color]He questioned with a nod to the Zipangu swordsmen before nothing the new presence and quirked an eyebrow to her. [color=f7941d]"And who's this?"[/color]

For the latter however, she was just greeted with an impossibility since male Mamono don't exist. Yet one was standing here and now, half-naked, toned muscles, dressed with a far too short pants, arms and leg covering that seemed far more suitable for adults of questionable taste bordering on scandalous. Alongside a large axe on one shoulders, the proof of this monstrous trait was seen from the ears and tail swishing to one side similar to that of a wild boar.

[color=f7941d]"I got the tough boi,"[/color] Gringor after receiving his answer would point a thumb towards Nobutada, currently conversing with Ayu. [color=f7941d]"He was tough, tougher than me. But I'm stronger, obviously."[/color]

[color=f7941d]"Also, those tin-can varjan are strong. Three of them come at me before tough boi there took them away from me."[/color] He huffed in annoyance, feeling cheated and deprived. It was an actual fight and one that he wanted to kept on going.

[color=f7941d]"It was [i]fun.[/i]"[/color]

Unbeknownst to him, Shizuka and Io got a glimpse of Gringor's full-on maniacal smile. Enjoying and loving this conflict to the fullest.

When Ayu came, telling them that they can rest, help out the villagers or continue their search. The answer was obvious for Gringor.

[color=f7941d]"I'll find some more of the bois,"[/color] He then mentally counted the three other ones, and tossed the axe upwards. The thing flipped once, then twice before it landed into the ground noisily.

Hmm. Gringor frowned, wishing that he had assigned another number instead when he realized that he had to find the sneaky ones. Kageho.

[color=f7941d]"Bah."[/color] Gringor growled, wondering where the vampire assigned to it went. Well, hopefully, this one will give more fight for him.

With that in mind, Gringor wandered around the forest. Looking for any weird or open clearings as Takeshi asked for. Throughout it all, his guard was up but it was still a frustrating event. Hopefully, he can quickly find them on the sheer fact that he's a monster and they try to take him out.

Anything to just alleviate this damn boredom.
