《Earth: The Gods' Playground》Chapter 13
Advertisement
Thanks for reading! I hope the biggest fight yet was nicely done.
I sit there in the bushes with Second and Third observing the battle unfolding before my eyes.
"Ahh, what a beautiful sight, The Troll getting injured, goblins getting killed. Really you won't see it so good in the movies."
"Roar!" Troll swings his tree.
"Shkriee!" Goblin tries to block using his primitive spear, which looks quite pitiful.
Slam!
"Oh, he flew!" First goblin ever to fly above in the air. His spear broken, his bones shattered.
As he flies I can see First loading his bow. He shoots and arrow flies swiftly trough the wind to it's destination.
Swoosh! Stab!
Just before goblin lands on the ground to meet his end, the arrow pierces him and steals the kill.
"Excellent." I praise.
That is exactly what his duty is, getting kills on near death goblins and the one who try to flee. I must take at least most of the experience from these monsters.
While fight is going I casually take out some food with water bottle and regain my strength. Aside from being injured I hope this Troll will become somewhat tired, allowing me to dodge that stupid tree.
Crash!
"Oh! Another goblin flies. Some more kills and perhaps I can level up to ten, while brothers to level 5 since it's some time already for them without upgrade.
"Roarrgh!" Ice arrow pierces the Troll hand.
Good, injure him more. Looking at goblin side I can see that of the 50 from before it thinned to about 40.
Most of the dead goblin are of course stolen by First. Some are dead already but goblins haven't picked up that someone is interfering in their fight. I guess they are too much into this fight. If I wasn't there, and they killed this Troll then they would become Kings of this land probably.
"Ooarghh!" Troll charges again with his eyes blood-shot.
Crash! Crack...Crack...Shatter!
He directly killed four goblins with that mad rush.
The fight continues...
~~~~
While I wait rested for my opportunity, Goblin Chief looks tired.

"Too much spell casting man. I hope First kills him after he becomes useless without his magic."
Now goblin forces amount to about 20 blood covered crazy looking shorties.
"Let's make it a bit more bloody." I will use the magic that was bought especially for this occasion.
"Curse of Agility." As the word leaves my mouth I can see faint dark mist gathering around the Troll.
It then quietly merges with his body, and here we go, he should be slower now by about 5 percent.
"Urgh?" Troll trembles confused, before it again starts attacking the goblins.
"Roar!" It waves his tree weapon.
Goblins fall, Troll weakens, I wait.
"Shkriee!" Goblin Chief looks dead tired now, takes a look trough his surroundings and then cries.
He observes all the places further off carefully and spots First.
"Shkruk!" He points and sends 4 goblins after realizing someone is backstabbing his people in this fight.
"So he noticed, huh" I slowly tense. The moment is coming.
After 4 goblins rushed in direction of Monic house I see fire flying here and there. The road to their place is sealed by Fire wall. Now they pin the Troll with fires burning by his sides.
His only option is to retreat in my way or charge into goblins.
"Roar!" He looks he like lost his reason and madly charges.
That is what he would do if sudden Fire ball haven't hit him in the face. In the air there is faint smell of burned fur, added by agonizing cry of the beast.
"Roarghhh!" Troll sways to the sides but stands his ground, Fire ball only inflicted him light injuries.
"Shkriee!" Goblin Chief seeing occasion in this chaos tries to kill the Troll with Ice arrow using scraps of whatever energy he has left. But he too is killed by arrow of First just before the arrow materializes fully.
Goblin number now about 10, shrouded in chaos and fear.
Their leader died but they can't run since they would be just killed. They try to fight the Troll who stopped attacking for now. But rain of arrows and spells quickly kills them off.

Brothers and I are now faster which increases our chances with Troll.
Troll is now alone with fire blocking him. I take a hold of my spear which started to burn off slightly already.
"Let's go, Second, Third!" We charge for our future.
Fire rains, arrows fly, spears pierce. We all join our forces against this formidable foe.
Troll is looking at us while covering his head with one arm. In the other he holds his tree tightly awaiting us. He understands that he can only defeat us to be able to flee. His looks is no longer like unparalleled Boss. He is now weakened beast, awaiting to be killed.
Closing in, the spells that were raining like in thunder have stopped, I guess they are tired now and barricaded themselves while awaiting my victory. Each brother splits to the sides while I charge from front. He swings at me, but I jump 3 meters up while casting spell.
"Dark bolt!"
Slam!
Due to unexpected magic attack in close range it throws him off balance.
We all take this opportunity to stab him. Second and Third manage to lightly pierce his thick skin on his legs slowing him even more. I spin maximizing my penetration and pierce him straight where his heart should be.
My spear just before coming in contact with his fur, shines brightly and covers itself in fire. This unprecedented mighty blow penetrates him wholly while leaving on the other side.
"Roarghhh!" Troll screams and throws his tree to the side while madly swinging his arms like demon of hell.
While expecting victory I see it staring and preparing to punch me. Damn! Probably his heart is somewhere else. I use my highest agility and dodge just barely his punch while falling on the ground.
Brothers keep stabbing him in the legs building damage to his speed.
Seeing me laying he changes his target and attacks one of pesky skeletons who have kept driving him crazy for a while now. He swings his fist and hits Second who already prepared to block with his shield.
Crush...Shatter!
His shield unexpectedly breaks apart. The arms is broken, he backs swiftly away but not enough to dodge blow that comes next. Third tries to interfere while stabbing his arm but the Troll pays him no heed.
I watch from distance too slow and far to react as Troll punch breaks into Second ribcage and turns it into broken bones. His fist goes upward making jaw strike and directly penetrating skull!
Undead 'Second' was destroyed!
"Aaaargh!!!" I leap in frenzy and take what left of the spear I have and jump in the sky like ferocious tiger onto head of the Troll!
"Take that FUCKER!" I stab, and stab, and stab.
The body fells but I keep stabbing, Troll head is now full of holes while my tears of grief fill them.
I Stab last time with greatest strength left in me and directly pierce his brain, after which I slide off his body and fall on the ground starting losing consciousness.
Level up!
Level up!
Screens appear before me but I don't look at them.
Just before my eyes close I mumble with difficulty while taking ball made of glass out.
"Take this soul! Lesser Soul Prison!" Pale blue light gathers from the Troll and merges with the ball, which now flickers with faint light.
After that I pass out while hearing shouts of Monic and Chief.

Grey Worlds
A mysterious incident occurred on a otherwise normal science centered world where all of the children from the age range of eight to sixteen suddenly vanished. “Where have their kids gone and will they ever return?” The now childless parents never got to really ask that question, because a strange new element replaced their lost children. This element slowly mutated the various animals that they once ruled over with their technology to the point that they were immune to their modern weaponry. The barren land of savages on a continent far away from theirs also had their children taken, but they easily mutated just like the beasts and only grew stronger thanks to the incident. A revolution of animals eventually took place after the mutations started to cause the animals to understand just how badly the humans ruined their lives and planet. Humans were the slowest to figure out how to use this strange new element to evolve, while their opponents were evolving and growing stronger by the day they couldn’t even surpass their modern technology. When humanity was on the brink of extinction a long forgotten event finally ended and their children finally started to return from the various worlds they were summoned to! It turns out that the mysterious new element that they didn’t know what to call was mana and that it’s everywhere in some fantasy planets. The children brought back a increase in technology and techniques to grow stronger with, which caused the humans to finally be able to build safe havens for their race. They grew stronger and started to finally adapt to their brand new environment. This is the story of a orphan who was taken away from his world, before he could gain a sense of attachment to the world. Who only has his older sister to care about and how he ends up adapting to the new world in front of him.------------------Dog notes by doggo First 'five' chapters aren't what the story is really about and is more of a prologue. The reason why some are separated into parts is because Doggo originally posted them as a entire chapter. The main setting is Ghost's actual world and not any foreign world. So this story was already posted once to another site or this site three years ago… and Dog is finally ending that three year hiatus! The explanation on why Dog was on a three year hiatus would of been written in the review section, but rrl doesn't allow self reviews. I'd have to create a alt just to self review which they obviously don't want even tho I'd not give myself any stars so its going to be here instead. The update schedule is a chapter a week till Dog get a editor and then two chapters a week till Dog gets enough money to pay for Dog’s bills. The final goal is to release a chapter every other day. Dog writes 4k word chapters so they are about twice as long as some of the other authors so every other day is actually more like once a day. ------------------- The part that was supposed to be the 'review' which Dog wont bother editing out repeat infomation since it wasn't supposed to go here in the first place. The first thing Dog will go over is what changed for the first 5 chapters, so that anyone who still remembers Dog's little novel and wants to continue from where Dog originally left off can decide whether or not to reread it. Also Dog is moving over to qidan simply because dog like the app they have. Dog won't go premium even if Qidan tells dog to and will simply move back to royalroad or create a blog.The things that changed over the years are mainly two important things. The first is that Dog changed the first person point of view to a third person, because Dog read a really bad first person novel and it reminded dog of dogs own novel. Dog also changed the thoughts of the character to be - - instead of italics. Finally dog changed chapter 3 completely to make the mc not seem like a homicidal maniac and introduced a important character in chapter 3.What happened to do in the three years that dog was away? Was dog at college and now needs money to eat? Was dog off in space after successfully becoming a astronaut and has now returned home with a completed novel or two? The answer is actually quite plain dog graduated from highschool and was supposed to only spend a year at dogs owners house to choose what major dog wanted to go to college for.Dog didn't do that and is still stuck with dogs owners and is sick of being a neet. Dog wants to move and buy doggy food, but dog is antisocial and doesn't want to work a simple 9 to 5 job for the rest of dogs life. Dog is a reader before dog is a author and the reason why dog got into writing was because dog wanted to write a novel without all the things dog finds annoying. Dog spent the first year reading various novels and dropping various novels. Dog is all caught up and has to much free time on dogs paws. The first year that Dog took off was the very same year that qidan came out so dog was naturally overloaded with free chapters. But now that pemium exists dog naturally has to limit the amount dog can read. Dog is addicted to reading like my very own readers and can understand your frustrations for dog disappearing for 3 years.Dog decided that dog will go back to writing 2 years ago. Dog wanted a decent stockpile incase dog has any other emergency so dog didn't post for a year but then dog decided to change the point of view which took another year.Dog has a patreon page https://www.patreon.com/mclaindog but there isn't any tiers there or goals till dog gets a editor. My final goal is to release a chapter every other day, but as long as Dog gets a editor Dog will do two free chapters a week.Dog will probably also make a kofi for anyone who just wants to send dog a tip and can't afford to donate money monthly while maybe having bonus chapters if the tip jar gets filled.
