Grandwing raised his rapier while chanting a powerful spell, he generated a storm of emerald winds that covered his weapon, as he pointed it at a large group of Goblins wearing armor and wielding weapons! ​​

The army was big enough to make most of the corridors completely clogged, however, for someone like Grandwing, that was a good thing!

"I will open the way!" he roared, as he unleashed a barrage of stabbing attacks with his rapier combined with his magic, unleashing powerful currents of slicing winds toward the goblins, slicing them apart by the dozens, as an explosion of magic unfolded!

Flash!

BOOM!

"Grryyyaaarrr…!"

"Grraaarrrr…!"

"Grrruuuoohhh…!"

The Goblins groaned in agony, as Grandwing powerful attack managed to break through their ranks, giving a chance for the rest to pave a way and target the powerful mages behind the large Goblin Warriors!

"Gather, coldness! Freezing Winter hear my melody! Ice Storm!" chanted Melodia, as she flapped her wings while flying above the ground, unleashing a large storm of freezing winds, which fused with Grandwing's slicing winds, forming a massive current of freezing and slicing storming winds, breaking through even more ranks, and freezing and slashing apart the Goblins that came on their way!

BOOM!

Frank was amazed by the enormous power of such attacks, and now that the Bird-kin had finished their charge, he and his group were coming next!

"I have to show them what I am capable of!" thought Frank.

Frank quickly combined his Skills with his Spells, deciding to conjure the magic of his own!

Flash!

Suddenly, dozens of purple-colored ice spears emerged above him, Nether Ice, alongside this, he combined his Storm Skill with his Dark Death Devil Magic Skill, generating a stronger version of the Dark Winds Spell, Dark Storm!

Combining both Dark Storm and Nether Ice, something similar but even more monstrous and powerful than Melodia and Grandwing combined spell emerged from Frank alone, overwhelming the Goblin Warriors as they were frozen and broken apart into pieces!

BOOM!

"A-Amazing…!" said Grandwing in surprise, as Melodia and the other two bird-kin were left in shock!

The Golden Lions were also surprised by Frank's amazingly powerful spell and began to wonder what was even his attribute… although it all looked purple and black, was that attack really belonging to the Dark Attribute?

Rabrudion and his group, however, decided to keep advancing, slashing, and killing the Goblins that attacked them and easily managing to defeat the weakened groups left, the Goblin Warriors were also quickly taken care of by the rest of the groups.

Frank kept saving more and more corpses and Mana Cores inside of his Inventory, continuing the march behind Rabrudion and Grandwing.

"Amazing, thanks to Grandwing, Melodia, and Frank, we were able to weaken the squadron of Goblins heavily, after that, we just needed to get rid of the last ones and it was done! Can Frank kept using that Spell?" asked Cathyl.

"I think I can, although it drains most of my Mana for an instant, so it is less efficient than going into physical fighting," said Frank.

"But…" said Gwendolyn.

"But I can regenerate my Mana very quickly, and I can also store more, so I actually have a lot of backup Mana already accumulated… But I want to save it up…" said Frank.

"What about Mana Potions?" asked Annabelle.

"Those restore little Mana to me, so they won't be of much help," said Frank, whose mana capacity was already very large, normal Mana Potions dropped inside Hunting Domains were not enough, unless he were jug down dozens of them at once, but there wouldn't be so much time to waste in the middle of battle.

"However, I will try to use more of these Spells and Skills, all of you also combine your magic and skills, the best way to get rid of such big groups is with wide-range, long-ranged attacks!" said Frank.

"Alright!" said Asterion.

"We'll combine our strength and generate a giant tornado!" said Cathyl.

Rabrudion who had lost a lot of the spotlight in the last battle seemed annoyed at Frank's party, which he believed were a bunch of childish fools.

Frank quickly alerted Grandwing and Rabrudion about yet another squadron waiting for them, and told them that the King and the Champion seemed to be behind five more of such groups!

"Indeed, the King might be trying to wear us down with many groups of Goblins, so cunning! It is really willing to slaughter his kin just to weaken us?!" asked Grandwing in anger.

"They're monsters, after all, bird! You shouldn't try to find a reason behind the insanity they do!" said Rabrudion rather annoyed, as the three parties reached the group of Goblins at last!

"Grryaarrrhahaha!"

They were greeted by an even bigger army…!

Dozens of Goblin Warriors wearing armor and weapons charged immediately after them, and from the back the Mages had already charged their spells, as enormous black clouds emerged atop the air, charging with electricity as thunderstorms unfolded inside a dungeon!

Boom!

Boom!

Boom!

"Damn it, they were preparing before we arrived!" roared Rabrudion and his lackeys, fighting against the stronger-than-usual Goblin Warriors, who took them way more to take down now!

Grandwing and the rest glanced at the thunder with fear, if they were to be hit by it, they would be heavily weakened, as thunder and electricity were the weakness of bird-kin whose bones were hollow and could conduct electricity even easier than normal folk, a zap of such strong, almost Rank 2 Thunderstorm Spell could make them go unconscious!

"Stay with my sister! Use long-ranged attacks to fend off the Goblin Warrior Army, I will open a way!" said Frank, understanding the concern of the Bird-kin, as Kamei was left with them!

The experienced Rank 2 Adventurers were left in a bit of embarrassment as they glanced at the young human girl's smile.

"I will protect you!" she said, as she suddenly generated a large barrier of holy light!

CLASH!

BOOM!

The thunder fell over it, but the barrier managed to resist it, as she quickly regenerated it!

"Amazing… a barrier that can withstand such strong thunder… can you move with it?" asked Grandwing.

"Of course, let's assist Rabrudion!" said Kamei, as she led the surprised Bird-kin, who began to work together with the Golden Lions who were having a very hard time dealing with the powerful Goblin Warriors who had received a powerup.

Rabrudion seemed angered to receive the help of the birds, however, he could not deny that they were being useful, as even he was being overwhelmed by the large and muscular Goblin Warriors that were being boosted by the Goblin King's presence!

Frank and the rest of the party quickly broke through the enormous army ahead of them as Ruby and Zhulong emerged from Frank's shadows, releasing powerful breaths of fire and thunder, and unleashing simple spells such as rains of fireballs and thunder shocks!

"Grawr!"

"Roar!"

Clash!

Boom!

"You shall not get in the way of my lord!" roared Nezhit, raising his dark blade and unleashing a barrage of lashing phantom attacks!

Slash! Slash! Slash!

Nezhit and Zero also helped pave the way, as Nezhit used his large blade to slash through the Goblin Warriors armors, skin, and flesh by coating it on his phantasmagoric aura, and then unleashing strong shockwaves of phantom power toward them! He was also practicing his Dark Attribute Magic, generating Dark Bullets which he fired continuously towards his targets!

"We shall pave a way for our master," said Zero expressionlessly, raising her knives and using them to slice through the Goblin's necks, beheading them with immense swiftness and speed, and by using her skills, she was able to meld into the shadows and travel around even faster, surprising the Goblins each time!

Slash! Slash! Slash!

Finally breaking through the enormous army, Cathyl, Asterion, and Hilvera combined their magic, generating an enormous burst of wind by fusing their Gust Skill and whatever Wind Attribute Spell they could!

By the use of Mana Control, it was more than possible to merge their magic!

FLASH!

The enormous tornado of emerald winds broke through the army of goblins, sending them flying away while slicing them up and then exploding into an even louder explosion!

BOOM!

"Hehe, I have to show you that I haven't accumulated all this magic for nothing!" laughed Vheslia, running through the battlefield and beginning to conjure her own powerful spells!

Suddenly, the Goblins noticed as distortion in space began to emerge, as small black holes appeared done by one out of thin air, absorbing and crushing their entire bodies, only leaving terribly malformed corpses and mana cores behind!

The agonizing cries of the Goblins resonated through the entire battlefield, as Gwendolyn and Annabelle's turn was next!

"My daughter, as we practiced!" said Gwendolyn.

"Alright mommy!" said Annabelle, as she and her mother unleashed their Mana Auras, combining them together through Mana Control and then unleashing their magic together!

Suddenly, a gigantic blazing storm of fire and winds emerged, penetrating through the Goblin Warrior ranks and burning them all alive, ultimately exploding into an even more destructive attack!

BOOM!

The agonizing cries of the Goblins resonated even more, as Grandwing and Rabrudion glanced with eyes wide open and their jaws falling to the ground the immense performance of Frank's party, especially their strange ability to completely ignore normal magic incantations to an extent, or even make the construction of magic circles incredibly swift and easy!

"And now… Dracolich Claws… Soul Materialization… Dark Nether Storm!" roared Frank, seeping into his own dark bony claws unleashing corrosive phantasmagoric miasma the dark nether storm spell that he had used previously, unleashing storms after storms of deadly corrosive winds with each slice of his claws, breaking through the enormous armies of goblin warriors and reaching the mages, crushing them on the spot!

BOOM!

"What… an amazing power!" said Grandwing, as he and the rest of the Adventurers noticed the black cloud near the ceiling disappear, and the thunderstorm dissipating…
