《Re: Globus Online (Completed)》Chapter 13. Kobolds.
Advertisement
We reach the bridge that connects Atlantis City to the mainland and during that time I got Kyra some actual clothing. She is wearing a violet dress with no patterns or anything. Just a plain old violet dress... It suits her though.
We go over the bridge and head towards the assumed location of the Kobold Camp. My mini-map says the Kobolds are there and something else is there aswell... A Kobold lord by the looks of things.
We go to the forest and enter the Kobold's camp silently. I pick up the two goddesses and the goddesses grab Kyra and I jump ontop of a tree. We came here to let these three train afterall...
The three girls nod after talking about something and Emilia starts silently killing the Kobold scouts huh... I'm guessing Jil and Iris will fight the Kobold Lord and it's minions after Emilia clears the scouts...
Emilia kills the last scout and Iris starts casting a mid-tier water spell huh... Jil is running in and Emilia is backstabbing then while their attention is on Jil.
A pretty good tactic I must say. Simple, but good.
The real fight begins soon though... This is about to get real fun isn't it?
The Kobolds that gathered here because of the Lord have been killed after half an hour of fighting and casting spells... Well the trio down there were doing everything while we were watching. The two goddesses leaned on me and Kyra fell asleep on my lap, curled into a ball...
"ROAAAAR!" (Kobold Lord)
"Damn it! Iris, run back!" (Jil)
I turn my attention to the trio and see that Iris is facing the Kobold Lord and Jil is running from behind Iris but it seems she doesn't have enough time huh... Emilia... Has enough time. Infact she is already jumping to stab the Lord from behind. The kobold lord swings his sword at Iris.
Emilia stabs the kobold lord in the back and the Kobold Lord's attack barely grazes Iris's hand. If it would've hit... Iris would've been cut in half. I would've jumped in if Emilia was in a worse position but luckily she was behind the Lord in a good spot...
The minions are dead aswell due to their careful planning and avoiding of the Kobold Lord until now...

Iris regains her composure and starts running away from the Lord as Jil runs towards it... Jil has no shield so she has to either Parry or Block with her sword instead of blocking and attacking at the same time.
The Kobold Lord swings at Jil while using his free hand to try to grab Emilia who is holding onto it's fur and stabbing it's back constantly while trying to hold on...
Jil parries the attack and swings at the Kobold Lord and cuts it's stomach...
The Kobold's health is at 75% even with the backstabbing...
I take a look at the trio's health... Emilia is full, Jil is around eighty percent... Iris is around thirty...
One attack and seventy percent of Iris's health? I know she is a mage but still.. That's a bit too much...
I open the Lord's status window.
Boss Mob StatusBoss Name and Race:Illfangs the Kobold LordKobold Lord [Unique]Special Abilities:Screech (Confusion)Rage (Attack Boosted, Defence Lowered)Weaknesses:The EyesWhen using Ability Screech, the Mouth.Level and Stat:Lvl 17.All stats at 93 except Strength. Strength stat at 195
Hmm... Illfangs huh? Level seventeen boss... The girls are around ten... Five to Seven levels higher. They should be able to kill Illfangs... I hope. If they can't i'll step in so they don't die and lose some levels and items.
His stats are 93 but the strength stat is 102 points more? That explains the hit... Rather it was only a graze but still so much damage... Understandable actually. Mages don't have much defence and the boss's strength stat is unreasonably high. This is an Unique boss aswell. Unique bosses always mean trouble in games.
The Kobold Lord starts shaking it's back and Emilia flies off it's back. Jil takes the chance to stab the Kobold in the eye and does a critical hit...
The Kobold Lord has a little bit of fur on it's back and nowhre else huh... It's big aswell. About five or five and a half meters in length and it's pretty wide. It has a sword that is about two meters long and swings that around... The skin of the Kobold Lord is blue. It's a funny looking Kobold Lord if I say so myself.

"Iris! Attack the eyes! It's a weak spot! Emilia! If possible do the same!" (Jil)
Iris finishes a spell and casts it. A ball of water that starts spinning flies straight towards the Kobold Lord's eye. Another critical hit.
Emilia gets up and runs towards the Kobold Lord and jumps on it's head and starts stabbing it in the eye. Three critical hits until the Kobold Lord grabs Emilia and throws her onto the ground...
I take a look at their HP again.
The Kobold Lord is in the red, twenty five percent health with five critical hits... Emilia has only thirty percent health left, Jil has recovered a little bit... Eighty nine percent health. Iris has recovered a lot and has sixty percent health.
The Kobold Lord uses Screech but it doesn't reach us on the treetop but it seems to hurt the three below... Emilia seems to be confused as she is swinging air. Jil regained her composure and blocked an incomming attack. Iris covered her ears fast enough to not be affected too much but it seems she is slightly confused as she casts a spell but it barely misses the Kobold's face.
Jil hits the Kobold Lord once and the blue colour it had turned into a red-ish one... I guess this is the Rage thing.
Emilia snaps out of it and immediatly charges the Kobold from the side while Iris snapped out of it and shot a ball of water into it's face and Jil attacked it's leg to make it stumble.
The three attacks hit at the same time and the Kobold Lord loses it's unharmed eye and now is completely wet ontop of that and is also on it's knee...
The Kobold Lord panicks and swings it's blade frantically. Emilia sneaks up behind it and stabs it in the neck while Jil parries an attack and stabs the Kobold in it's stomach and Iris shoots a spinning water ball in it's face.
The Lord dies while screaming and the three girls fall down in exhaustion. I jump down the tree while grabbing Kyra. The goddesses float down gracefully and we walk to the trio who are panting on the ground out of exhaustion.
"You did good. I was about to jump in and help Iris but I saw Emilia behind the Lord. Also... I'm proud of you all. This one was an Unique lord. You should've gotten a lot of XP and levels. How much did you get?" (Ethos)
"Five... Levels.." (Jil)
"Hahah... I got... Six." (Iris)
"Four..." (Emilia)
Kyra wakes up from her small nap and stands up.
"I'll cast some magic to heal you and get rid of your exhaustion." (Ethos)
I walk to Iris who was the closest to me and cast some water magic and Light magic and a tiny bit of Nature Magic and heal her while also taking care of her exhaustion. The three magic types each have a 'Healing' spell and the Nature one also has a side-effect of taking away exhaustion. Nature magic is hard to learn for regular humans and players but not for me.
The three get up and start slowly walking towards the City.
I look towards the goddesses and they look towards me. They nod and I approach Iris while Hera approaches Emilia and Aphrodite approaches Jil. We pick them up in a princess carry and Kyra immediatly jumps onto my shoulder.
We walk to the city while carrying the mentally exhausted trio. We go to the Guild house and finish the quest and get some gold coins as payment and an extra three coins as payment for taking care of the Lord.
We go to an Inn and I pay for four rooms. Six girls in three rooms and one for myself.
We put Emilia with Kyra, Jil with Iris and the goddesses are in their own rooms. I go to my room aswell.
My room has a really big bed and a table with a lamp that activates with magic on it. I also have a shelf for books and a small cabinet for my clothes probably. The place doesn't have much but it will do...
I actually fall asleep once because I haven't slept since I came to this game a couple days ago... Even Gods need sleep...

8 442The Many Lives of Cadence Lee
Cadence Lee thought she was a normal girl, perhaps a little well to do, but not exceptionally so. She had her college classes, she had her job that her uncle gave her, and she had a nice boyfriend who was sweet if a little awkward. Except, when a mugger accosts Cadence and her boyfriend attempts to wrestle a gun away from the criminal, Cadence ends up shot. A normal girl, with the kind of wound Cadence had, would die. Cadence managed to do that part. But a normal girl wouldn't then open her eyes again and learn that death is not as permanant for her as it is for other people. She can be reborn again, and again. Each time stronger and with new abilities. The catch? Any world she is born into, she can never return to. She has infinite lives, but only one life for each. So begins The Many Lives of Cadence Lee. [participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge]
8 113The Days of Path Dust

8 211Thomas the Brawler
Thomas doesn't remember what his last name was, before it became Bluebrim, a name belonging to another universe. He's also pretty sure he wasn't this stupid before he arrived, but what can you do, when a day that was supposed to begin with an interview to set your life back on track instead begins in a universe that makes no sense, with rules you can't begin to understand? Maybe he should have paid more attention to the avatar creation screen ... Content warnings: All of them. Seriously. Expect lots of blue screens to begin with. Don't expect a power-leveling fantasy, in which the lone hero beats up all the bad guys, and gets a harem of women. There's just a guy who treats character creation like an annoying series of pop-up advertisements, and the story is basically the ramifications of that. The main character has to learn to take the world he's found himself in seriously, and he'll learn the way most of us do, by doing it wrong first. This is, insofar as it is successful, a dark comedy fantasy. Also a bit of horror, particularly but not exclusively body horror. I'm pretty sure I've earned those Content Warning tags, so, uh, yeah. This is practice. Hopefully things improve as I go, and figure out what I'm doing wrong, but I make no guarantees things will ever get better. I've already made mistakes, I'll make more, and I'm happy to notice them each time I make them. You don't improve unless you fail. (On the plus side, it probably won't get much worse.) Feel free to point out anything you think I'm doing wrong; I don't promise to change anything, particularly if it's a matter of taste, but I am looking to improve, and figuring out what I need to improve goes faster if I don't have to try to figure it out myself. I've updated the earlier chapters for formatting, in the hope that it would make everything easier to read on mobile devices. Hopefully things work slightly better now, but please let me know if there are any issues anywhere.
8 147Death Galaxy
When portals opened across the world and space, people were a bit terrified. Naturally, some people called it the end times or some other negative interpretation. Thankfully, the new arrivals managed to calm the masses, saying they were here from across dimensions in search of peaceful refuge. After some discussion and promise from the reality hopers to not break the world, they were allowed asylum. And so, began a technological revolution as the new cohabitants, who looked distinctly human if a bit off, openly shared some of their knowledge with us. Space travel, while not cakewalks, become more easily accessible, as did interplanetary colonization. Naturally, with the New Humans keeping some of the more dangerous techs to themselves and Old Humans being a greedy bunch, tensions are arising as old and new grudges rear their ugly heads. The world endlessly spins as history, both good and bad, is seemingly on its way to repeating itself. Only with other planets, and potentially other universes, being the backdrop this time. But that was big stuff that Alex had no real interest in. They only care about one thing and one thing. TDAG. Trans-Dimensional Adventure Games. Best VR system ever made. Alex, instead of focusing on political and multiverse shenanigans, had their eyes set on VR games. Specifically, one of the new and up and coming potential best games of all times. Death Galaxy
