《The Strongest Job... Gardener?》Chapter 4 boss fight (2/2)
Advertisement
Chris forced his body to move. Even with 4 ribs broken, his left arm limp and mangle, and organs turned into paste by some miracle he moved his body.
Sheathing both his swords he ran towards the fire troll. Picking up one of the dead orc’s spears he hurled it at the monster with all his strength. Whistling through the air it hit its mark, the beast left leg.
Kneeling the troll quickly removed the spear and the wound began to heal. By the time Chris had made it to his target the wound was almost closed, but it still gave him the opening he need. Unsheathing one of his swords he aimed for the troll’s neck, unfortunately his opponent was faster than him and raised its arm to block. Sadly the troll’s arm was too thick for the weakened Chris to cut clean through and the sword stopped half way through the troll’s arm.
“Tsk, not done yet!”[Chris]
Chris delivered a roundhouse kick to the monsters head sending back a few steps. While he kicked Chris had let go of his sword drawing the other and while the fire troll was stumbling he pierced its chest.
The troll coughed up blood and looked like it was at its end, but the beast eyes were still full of life. Chris moved back as the monster roared swinging its uninjured arm at him. gaining distances Chris watched as his swords fell to the ground as the cuts closed.
“Are you fucking kidding me!?” [Chris]
The wounds quickly healed and the troll looked at Chris and it smirked as if saying “you can’t kill me, dumbass”.
Chris expression turned cold and his eyes became icy. His mind a moment ago was filled with killed this beast to save the 2 girls that were now at his back. Since they no longer in immediate danger his mind began to move at lightning speed as he looked around for some way to kill this monstrosity since it seem that nothing he did worked.

Although his opponent didn’t give him the time and again came at him wielding his club. The club glowed with a purplish light again and Chris face instantly drained of color.
(If I’m hit with that I’m dead!) [Chris]
He was to injured to dodge an attack like that, still he didn’t give up and attempted to block it with his only good arm. Just before the troll got close enough to unleash his attack a voice shouted.
“Get down!” [Claira]
Ducking as two icicles whizzed past and impaled the troll in the chest halting its attack. After that several more continued came flying piercing the troll in the stomach, arms, legs, and head.
Breathing heavy Claira’s and Sara’s legs gave out and they sat on the ground out of energy.
“Did (breath) we do (breath) it?” [Sara]
Looking at the troll Chris was surprised that it still was breathing and then a reddish orange fire burst from the wounds that covered its body.
“No (breath) no way!” [Claira]
All three were shocked by the scene in front of them. The fire troll was covered in flames quickly melted the icicles after its wounds healed slowly. Chris picked up his swords and tried to stab the monster while it was still healing but the flames keep him from getting to close.
“How do we kill this thing, no matter what we do it still gets back up” [Claira]
Taking the opportunity Chris switch some of the DS’s to heal him focusing on his organs so he won’t die from internal bleeding.
Turning to the 2 behind him he came up with an idea.
“Can you two cast anymore spells?” [Chris]
“I have enough mana for one maybe two” [Claira]
“Same” [Sara]
Hearing that Chris smiled.
About 10 minutes had passed when the troll had fully healed. At that time Chris was at about 80% with his organs and ribs fixed while his arm could now move but only a little.

The troll looked at a roar and again smirked at Chris. Though the beast’s wounds had regenerated it seems that doing so made it extremely tired. Looking at his enemy Chris frowned while the girls looked in despair.
“Come at me you fucking fur ball! Fire covered shit! You ugly ape!-“ [Chris]
Chris continued to through insults at his opponent until it roared and its eyes blood shot with anger. Rushing towards Chris it raised its club purplish light quickly covering it. Its movements were severely slower than earlier, but then again that helped Chris quite a bit. When the enemy was about 8 meters about Chris smiled broadly.
“Now!” [Chris]
“Frost Barrier!” [Sara]
“Icicle!” [Claira]
Suddenly a dome of ice surrounded not any of the three people, but the troll and the icicle wasn’t aimed at the fire troll instead it shot towards the ceiling. What the icicle hit was a group of stalactites making their bases crumble and fall onto the fire troll.
Yes, the reason Chris kept throwing insults at the monster was to keep its attention on him and not the 2 chanting behind him.
Unable to escape from the icy cage the troll howled as the stone missiles impaled its body. As its cries echoed throughout the cave as it tried to escape by thrashing and covering itself in flames. Chris however wasn’t going to give it any chance to free itself and heal. He quickly rushed over and with one swing cleanly decapitated the monster
Signaling the end of the fight Chris saw a windows appearing in his face.

Dragonheart Core
To take a dragon's hoard is to challenge death. The greatest of the sea-drakes wakes, curled on his silver throne; but there is no silver. His hoard is stolen. He rises, screaming, and chases the thief to the ends of the world—only to be shot from the sky. But dragons do not die easy, and never one with such festering hatred. A dungeon core rises from his corpse. If he intends to survive so near the cove of pirates that slew his past self, he'll need to master his powers—and quickly. For these pirates are dragonslayers; they won't be felled by mere mushrooms or spiders. Beneath the lawless Calarata, the young dungeon core will have to fight to survive; and one day, he will return death to the man who killed him. Updates twice a week, on Tuesday and Thursday at 1 pm EST!
8 312Horizon
Emiluna is about to turn 16 and gain access to her first two classes. Living in a small village in the middle of nowhere, she always wanted to become a Hunter. Having learned a bit under her parents, a miller and a seamstress, she was sure she could never pick a class that meant staying inside all day. But being a Hunter is more than just a class. It means providing meat for the village, culling small pests near the cultivated fields and most importantly guarding the village from predators and monsters. But Emiluna is not a normal girl and her destiny far bigger than she could have ever imagined.Join her as she finds out what awaits just behind the horizon.[Word from the author]I am looking to create a fantasy world that has some logic to it and stays believable even as characters gain power and progress in levels.Classes and level quantify the people's progress, but they do not artificially inflate their power to demi-god levels. I am primarily trying to write a captivating story, not "power-porn". That means it will be slower than the fast burning litRPG you might be used to, but it won't burn out that quickly either and I won't drop half of my plots at the wayside. I should mention that English is not my native language. I hope it is mostly unnoticeable, but sometimes I manage to slip some awkard sentence structure in there (German sometimes puts things together in reverse).It it also my first time writing an actual fantasy novel and the first time writing anything at length in English. Any constructive feedback is very welcome.Credit where credit is due: Cover picture by Paul Bica (Licensed under CC 2.0)Check out his amazing photos here: https://www.flickr.com/photos/dexxusYes, my cover picture is a photo, not a drawing. :D I might try my hand at some Paint-ification later to add the title.[participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge]

Monsters come in many shapes. Men, animals, spirits, dreams, feelings. Sometimes it feels as if this world is a monster, simply waiting to devour you and all you hold dear. Grim knows this feeling better than most. Like many he was happy with his life, friends aplenty, a loving mother, a stable home, and a bright future. Like many that life was taken from him. But unlike many that wasn’t the end of him. He wasn’t devoured by the world, he was given a second chance and new name. With that name comes new people, new dangers, and a new outlook. This monster of a world wouldn’t consume him, he would grow. He would grow beyond the nightmares, beyond the weakness, and beyond his past. And the only way he can do that, is through blood.
