The young knight\'s safe bet was running away but how could he do that when those goblin mages had covered the whole area with their barriers.

\'There\'s eight of them.\' Jude counted them in his mind. \'And those filthy mages.\'

Goblins were beasts that appeared in a humanoid form, their skins were green and they had round ugly faces with both of their incisors sticking out, the goblins with spears had only small pieces of clothes covering their loins while the mages were on cloaks.

Jude steered his horse back to the direction where he was running but he was once again met with resistance from his horse.

One of the goblins thrust his spear toward him to knock him off his horse, but he was quick enough to block the spear with his sword and quickly pulled his horse a foot back.

"I just have to survive long enough for that thing to wear off," Jude muttered under his breath.

Two goblins moved closer and thrust their spears towards him but Jude was a master swordsman and blocking attacks like this with his sword was something he had perfected over a long period of time but doing it on top of a horse was a bit tricky, he was no cavalry.

Seeing that attacking the person on top of the horse wasn\'t working, the goblins decided to attack the horse instead.

The horse let out a loud neigh on feeling the spears thrust into its body parts and being pulled out to repeat the process.

Jude tried to keep the horse on its feet while moving around the restricted area.

One of the goblins let out a loud growl and with a large amount of strength thrust his spear into the horse\'s foot. The stallion couldn\'t take any more of the torture and soon came crashing on the floor.

Jude was quick on his feet and had already jumped off before the horse hit the floor.

With their prey now on the same ground level, the goblins turned to their prey with snarls but none of them were charging toward him.

"Keep him alive." One of the mages said from the back.

With that order, the goblins charged forward with their spears.

Jude slowly placed his sword in front of himself while holding it with both hands, then he tried to get his breathing under control.

"The secret of swordsmanship is to be in control and under control." He muttered.

Three Goblins which were the ones in front attacked him with their spears all at the same time, they expected to bring him down with this one swing of their spears but they were surprised because they didn\'t believe that a human could block three spear swings coming from powerful creatures like them.

The raw power of the goblins was quite the strong one and Jude knew best to quickly pull back his sword and step back.

The goblins could have gone for thrusts which would have been really difficult for Jude to avoid but when he heard one of the goblin mages say that they needed him alive, he knew he had a little fighting because the goblin warriors weren\'t going to go all out on him.

Jude was aware that the goblins weren\'t going to thrust at him to avoid killing him and that was just what he needed to beat them.

One of the goblins began swinging his spear violently at Jude from the front while the two others tried to attack from the back.

Jude was controlling his sword well to block and avoid all those violent swings.

One of the goblins came from the back and tried to hit his head but Jude had already taken notice of that and quickly ducked, allowing the spear to take out the goblin swinging violently at him.

Without wasting time he kicked the goblin at his back with both of his feet which only managed to take some steps back.

While still on the floor he stabbed the goblin on the floor with his sword, he knew where the heart was located and had gone for there. On pulling out his sword it was covered with black blood, he frowned at the irritating smell of the blood.

"That\'s one down." He muttered.

He still had five goblins behind him who hadn\'t attacked yet together with the two in front of him who had just watched their brother\'s life get wasted before them.

The two goblins let out very loud snarls and charged in with their spears but they still weren\'t thrusting.

Jude blocked the first goblin\'s swing without much effort and using his right foot he kicked the spear off his hands, before the goblin could realize what was happening, Jude struck his sword at his right limb, taking it off with one strike.

The goblin was still on his feet despite losing a lot of blood and still tried to attack with his left hand but it didn\'t take Jude more than one strike to take that one out too and then stab him through the heart and pulling out his sword the goblin crashed on the floor.

The other goblin who had just seen his brother go through a torture before his death didn\'t mind that as he swung his spear aiming for Jude\'s head.

Jude had only avoided that at the nick of time.

\'I really expected much more than this from the goblins, what are the kingdoms so afraid of?\' Jude thought recalling how easily he had dealt with two goblins now and the third one wasn\'t going to be any different.

With the goblin swinging violently at him, he tried to look for an opening. The goblin slashed vertically at him and that was just the opening he needed.

With the goblin now open he struck his sword down his wrist taking off his wrist along with his spear.

A spray of blood shot out from the open wound and sprayed him on his face as the hand fell off while still holding the spear, with the goblin\'s weapon gone Jude wasted no time in taking his head off.

"Kill him!!!!" He heard three voices shout in unison behind him.

"Oh no." Luis gasped.

He knew what was coming now that his trump card was gone. Four goblins charged in from the other group of five and started thrusting and swinging at Jude who could see his eyes flashing before his eyes but he wasn\'t going to give up yet.

Two goblins thrust their spears towards him with full force, Jude quickly jumped up and landed on both of their spears.

With both limbs within range, he didn\'t waste time in taking them both off. Now the goblins had one limb each which made it easier for Jude to get rid of them.

Immediately after getting rid of them, he felt a stinging pain by his side, he quickly grabbed the spear to prevent the spear from going any further.

Without giving in to the pain he pulled himself out of the sharp blade of the spear, the goblin tried to thrust again but Jude stepped out of the way with his hands still on his side.

He kicked the spear and without wasting time he took the goblin\'s head.

Jude knew there were two of the goblins remaining and he had to deal with them before he lost too much blood but before he could spot the goblin close to him a spear came flying towards him, he was slow to react and the spear ended up hitting him on his shoulder.

Jude fell to the floor with the spear on his shoulder, now he wasn\'t sure he could fight anymore as he had lost too much blood and was in great pain.

He watched the demon close to him lift his spear and closed his eyes to accept his fate.

"Why did you have to run away little sis?" He groaned in pain.

Before the goblin could bring down the spear an arrow came flying and going through his head the goblin dropped the spear on Jude and fell to the floor.

\'What?\'

Another arrow came flying toward the other goblin who threw the spear and soon he dropped dead on the floor.

"It\'s them." The goblin mages said with panic.

It didn\'t take long for them to receive their own arrows, the arrow took out one of the mages but before it could hit the other three they vanished.

Jude couldn\'t believe what was happening, he guessed the arrows were coming from the hill beside him but who was it coming from?

\'Did someone follow me?\'

He saw two figures drop from the hills and step into the moonlight, Jude couldn\'t believe what he was seeing, they looked like humans but Jude they weren\'t.

"E…E...E.. Elves." He stuttered.
