Gerald was the first to attack, he cut the throat of one in a fast attack not giving chance to reaction, but the other two trolls didn't liked obviously, seeing their comrade dying, so they attacked while shouting with an angry and annoying sound.
Grekorio seeing Gerald being at a disadvantage, he jumps in the fight to help, while Gerald is retreating and attracting their attention, Grekorio try to sneak around the troll and kill it with a backstab, but Grekorio wasn't lucky, after thrusting the sword at the back of the troll the sword only went for about 2 centimeter before stopping, the troll noticing Grekorio behind him, The 3 meter giant turn around while at the same time smashing the branch, that it use as a weapon, in his direction.
Grekorio hurriedly pulls his sword, and jump back trying to retreat, he feels a violent wind passing by his face making his long hair dance wildy, soon followed by a heavy sound and a small cloud of dust.
Giving a fast glance to the side, to see how is Gerald, Grekorio again take a stance getting ready for another round, but he is only dodging the troll's attacks.
After suffering under the attacks for a while he sees a chance, at the same time, he think about Gerald's attack at the start of the battle, and while thinking that the lightning strike scene from his dream come to his mind, the two thing start to merge,'A lightning that come without thunder, you don't realize that it strike...."
A bright light shone from Grekorio's eyes as he start to feel as if he was understanding something.
Grekorio try to put this idea in practice, storing power in his legs while eyeing every inch of the troll's body, he release the stored power in his legs, his body flew at the throat of the troll, and it suprised by the sudden attack didn't know how to react, soon feeling the cold steel in it's throat waked the troll.

The angry troll feeling its life flowing away and its body becoming weak, could only shout and try to smash the annoying cricket that hurted it.
Grekorio looked at the branch falling from the troll's hand while its body following the branch, Grekorio sighed in relief and turned his head to look at Gerald, only to be meet with the captain looking blankly at him.
"Good enough, now let's go to the next." Gerald speak after the troll fall on the ground.
"Yes."
Grekorio look at the trolls' corpses, then in the branch that they used as weapon, such a incredible material might come in use in the future, feeling that, he begin to collect the branches, opening the inventory tab and seeing his loot there, he nodded to himself, and opened the quest tab, there are only 2 quests, and below the quest「Kill the trolls」is 1/10.
'So only the one a personally kill counts.' thinking that, Grekorio goes after Gerald, who only left his shadow behind.
4 hours later.
After killing 4 more trolls, and searching for their trails, Grekorio strumble upon some trails that show that there are more than 4 trolls around here.
After getting more experience in observing his sorrounding and trying to find trails it was easy.
Stalking the trolls using the trails was easy due to their carelessness.
After a few trees and bushes, soon five trolls come into view, sneaking behind one while Gerald like all the others fights, rush in middle of them killing one with a fast attack.
Seeing the troll in front of him distracted by Gerald, Grekorio jump in it's back, while lifting the troll's chin up and shoving the sword in it's throat in direction of the brain.
Seeing the troll falling down he loose his legs that was around the troll, and use the it's back to jump at another one, this one not seeing Grekorio coming at him could only feel something passing by and the ground approaching.

Of the 2 trolls left, one was occupied with Gerald, and the other one seeing it's two comrade at the ground with a expanding pudle of blood aroud their head, angrily roared while charging at Grekorio, he experienced it in the past fights with others trolls, and so he wisely rolled to the side letting it charge past him.
Hurriedly turning around and going after the troll, who is trying to stop it's charge, Grekorio slash with all his strenght at it's back, leaving a deep gash.
Troll has never been so angry before, with a thunderous roar, it turn around while swinging its branch.
Seeing that, Grekorio crouched down, and waited for the hammer-like branch above him, soon feeling the violent wind following the branch, he get up and thrust his sword at the troll's chest, and pull the sword back after felling that the sword went deep enough.
Jumping back and staring at the troll roaring crazily as it feels it's life going away, soon it falls down.
After confirming that the troll is dead he turn around to see Gerald waiting for him like theirs past fights, it didn't matter how many trolls Gerald is fighting against, he always end the fight at the same time as Grekorio.
Getting the loot from the trolls, and opening his quest tab, he sees that he need to kill more 2 trolls, Grekorio go more deep in the forest in his search for more trolls, soon his and Gerald silhouettes dissapear in middle of the foliage.
After killing the last 2 trolls and collecting the loot, Grekorio opens his menu and his character tab.
