"Well I feel a little crazier, let's go help some monsters." Gil read the system quest and decided to just roll with it.

"Ugh, they might smell by I guess I am feeling crazy too…" Remey fleshed her fists ready to lay down some hurt on the slime cores she could get her hands on.

"We need to protect the natural order of the world. It is what a true hero does. Even if these monsters do not appreciate it then I will still do it." Su had already made up her mind. To her this was to be expected of them, they needed to be heroes in every way, not just to humans.

Midnight had already gone off and would jump in when she could. This left Walker, Remey, and Su to lead the charge in and take over the pace of the battle. Walker threw together a plan in the hopes that if the goblins and grey haired spiders attacked them as well they could manage to dodge and get away.

"Su you go help those spiders, they are struggling against the small slimes. They can't get them to be still so you will take care of that. Remey and Gil, you two team up against the medium slimes. Gil can pierce the core while Remey keeps those goblins from being swallowed. I will see what I can do with that goblin riding a spider, it looks to be struggling against the giant slime."

'The requirements to learn the great tactician passive skill from the general's system have been met. The user had joined and formulated a plan with a cavalry unit, a foot soldier unit, and a specialized soldier unit.

Grand tactician- passive

The user has a more fluid ability to formulate plans on the move. Their tactics will be much more easily understood by the forces they join and command. When giving orders to a unit their morale is boosted adding +1 to all stats.'

Walker started forward in to a running pace. He had no time to pay attention to the system now. The goblins and the grey haired spiders saw the new enemies join the fight. Walker sprinting past them heading for their strongest member made the others on edge, however, their instincts screamed at them to focus on their own enemies.

The goblins fighting the medium slimes were distracted enough for the slimes to roll closer and try to devour their prey by encompassing them in their bodies. Yet the goblins didn't feel the pressure of death, instead, a large wind gusted around them sheering off pieces of the slime's bodies. They could only see Gil standing at the edge of the clearing with another arrow in his hand.

"Snap out of it you smelly monsters!" Remey dashed in and pushed one of the goblins away from the other medium slime. She had made herself the slimes target by doing this, they started to troll toward her stretching out small parts of their bodies to catch her. However, Gil's wither spike arrow was still causing wind to separate parts of their bodies.

"Blobs of jelly like you have nothing on my hields!" Su was not sure if her taunt skill would have any effect on the slimes. However, when she shouted the small slimes started to roll after her. She used her shields to bash at them pushing them away and making them easiwr targets for the grey haired spiders.

The spiders had lower intelligence than the goblins but they had the instinct to understand that Su was not showing hostility for them. They focused on the predator they were fighting together instead. They slashed out with their spiked legs trying to cut away the slimes. They were taking damage because they could not resist the decaying effects of the slimes body. However, Su saw one of them get lucky and pierce a slime core. The result was a puddle of purple slime and a broken purple rock falling in to two.

Walker was the most dramatic of the party as he entered. He lept in to the air as high as possible and took his draconic crusher from his inventory. He channeled his mana in to the hammer and attracted the water element around him. His goal was to freeze off chunks of the giant purple slime so he could either collect the giant slime's core or break it.

The goblin riding the spider saw the incoming Walker and moved away to avoid a possible blow. But when it saw that the target was the slime and not itself it was left cautious and curious. Walker had come down slamming his hammer in to the slime, his elemental smash skill sent the gathered water mana in to the slime's body.

There was a moment where the hammer just hit the slime and made a soft dent in it however, after a few seconds the water around the slime gathers and attached to its body. It froze and became sharp spikes trapping and freezing a large chunk of its body. The chunk for frozen slime did not move with the giant slime and instead slipped down to the ground where it broke in to countless pieces.

The goblin on the spider looked at the scene of Walker standing with a large hammer and quickly gathering a frost whip. Walker could tell that Ice would be the perfect way to cut down this giant slime's size. He quickly sent a pulse of energy in to the frost whip he created from the high amount of water around him. The ice needles sped toward the slime and pieced it fairly deeply. The frost that formed was less than what the hammer did but it was still a noticeable piece of ice that fell to the ground and broke in to shards.

The goblin on the spider did not hesitate any longer seeing this, it rushed in and let the spider choose its path. The goblin brandished its large sharpened branch and stabbed constantly at the giant slime trying to reach the core. Every time it made contact it would cause more decay to the sharpened branch. With its weapon failing the goblin pulled out a sharp rock and grabbed a branch from the nearest tree. Walker watched as it crudely cut the end of the stick in to a point and started to stab at the giant slime again.

This dance of retreating from the giant slime and sending ice at it while the goblin on the giant grey haired spider tried to stab it conbtinued for some time. The slime had slowly started to lose its mass and surprisingly get faster. With less of its body to control it had the ability to move faster, the downside to this was that Walker and the goblin on the spider were able to predict its simple movements and still avoid it. The core of the slime was also now vulnerable with less protection.

Walker could hear the growls of Midnight from nearby and when he retreated from the giant slime next he was able to catch a glimpse of Su and Midnight teaming up on the last small slime while the spiders retreated near each other. They had lost a few limbs to the rot and needed to avoid the remaining slime to survive.

When he looked toward the medium slimes he saw that the goblins there were jumping and shouting their scratch shrieks in victory. Gil had shaved off a lot of their bodies with the wind elemental wither spike arrows. This gave Remey the ability to let the goblins get in close and destroy the cores of the two slime. She had already grabbed the broken cores to bring to Walker as soon as he finished his own enemy.

Having less of a slime body to protect its core of the giant slime was very exposed. Walker created a frost whip while the goblin and spider duo retreated yet again. This battle of attrition was finally ending. Walker used the whip not to shoot out ice needles but instead to pierce the slime and wrap around the core. He jerked backwards on the frost whip and pulled the core from the body of the giant slime.

With the purple core fading in to a dull purple color, the slime core went dormant since it had nobody to supply itself with nutrients. The slime body fell in to a puddle of purple slime. Walker looked around seeing that the spiders were now wary of Su and Midnight. The celebrating goblins were now silent looking at the one on the spider. It was making a confused face, Walker was curious if it would attack or if it would run at this moment.
