The Evolution Of A Goblin To The Peak Chapter 548 - Witch Clan: Isabella And Eztein Vs. Witches

Chapter 548 - Witch Clan: Isabella And Eztein Vs. Witches

"It's good that there is reinforcement but... why the fuck did these three are still chasing after me?!!"
Eztein shouted as he jumped side to side avoiding the ice spears, flame rays, and sharp winds. The three witches that were following him weren't ordinary at all. The three of them were at the peak stage of S-rank.
If it was an early stage or intermediate stage, then he would be able to fight them even with Gragas and Yenxa in his arms, after all, he was also at the peak stage of S-rank.
'The witches that are following me decrease in numbers but the strong ones left to deal with me. It's frustrating that they prioritized me over the reinforcement.'
He said inwardly as he continued to move his body left and right.
Suddenly, a shadow appeared behind one of the three witches that were chasing him. The figure stabbed the neck of the witch using a dagger in its hand.
The witch was stunned as he opened his eyes and mouth widely. The presence behind him suddenly appeared out of nowhere and it instantly tried to kill him.
Swoosh!
The tip of the dagger slightly pierced the neck of the witch before he quickly grabbed the dagger on his neck.
"Eh?"
A soft muffled sound escaped from the figure's mouth before it disappeared. The figure reappeared beside Eztein.
"Oh, the potion girl..." Yenxa turned her head to look at the figure. She recognized the figure as Isabella.
"Hello, Yenxa." Isabella smiled as she placed her hand in her pocket and took out two healing potions and two mana potions. She gave the potions to Eztein and said, "Um... Drink this and give the dwarf the health potions. This will recover a bit of his strength. I can see that you have a parasite so you don't need health potions for now."
"O-Okay..." Eztein nodded before he placed down Yenxa and took the potions.
Isabella turned her head towards the three witches and said to Yenxa, "Um... Yenxa, you can go back to fortress for now."
This was the first time that someone reacted to her skills. Even Franklin couldn't react with her skills yet one of the three witches here caught her dagger with bare hand. Also, her dagger met a resistance when she stabbed the neck of that witch before.
Just like what she expected, her hunting skills wouldn't properly work against people at the peak stage of S-rank. It was already great that she could kill early stage and intermediate stage S-rank with her combat skills but above that level, it would be too much for her.
She was the successor of Travsky, one of the strongest God of Hunt in ancient times. She inherited most of his fighting skills, combat style, and knowledge and it will make her a terrifying existence if she successfully learned all of these.
The skills that she used right now were skills used for ambushing an enemy. A killing technique made for killing a creature in an instant. She was just an early stage A-rank yet with her skills she could kill an enemy who didn't have an idea about her presence.
She was a perfect assassin but her combat prowess was low. She still hasn't learned any skills in fighting any enemy head-on. So people at A-rank would be able to defeat her in close combat. Also, if her assassin techniques had failed to kill an enemy then it wouldn't work for a second time as she couldn't use the same technique in a single target twice. She had to wait for another hour for her to be able to hide her presence on her target.
'I still had a lot to learn. The God of Hunt had a lot of skills and I only managed to learn a few of them. The God of Hunt isn't all about ambushing an enemy. It's about hunting any type of creature in the universe using a long-range ability, fighting ability, assassin ability, or support ability.'
It's all about hunting a creature with different techniques based on the opponent's weaknesses.
Travsky, one of the strongest gods twenty thousand years ago, was feared by countless gods, deities, demon gods, monster lords, and spirit gods. Until now, she only learned a fracture of his power.
Isabella slightly glanced at Eztein and asked in a low voice, "Can you still fight?"
"Yeah, just a little bit." Eztein nodded at her question.
"I'm still not great at fighting head-on so I'm leaving the frontline to you. I will hide in the shadows and wait for an opportunity to launch an attack." Isabella explained to him.
"I understand. It's really good that you're helping me. It's better than fighting these three alone." Eztein said.
"Don't worry, our help is here," Isabella said before she disappeared into the shadows.
More than seventy armed people had arrived on the scene. They were the help that Isabella was talking about. They were here to gang up on the witches while Isabella was going to take a chance to injure them with her techniques. Her power level was too low to instantly kill someone at that level. The only thing she could do was wound them with her killing technique.
The key to winning this battle was Eztein as he alone had the strength to kill a peak S-rank. Isabella and the others were just here to keep the enemies.
"Tsk! She disappeared... Watch out." One of the witches said. He was the one that got attacked by Isabella before.
There was one reason why they didn't attack immediately and that was because they couldn't feel anything from Isabella. Her presence and aura were hidden to the point that they felt that they were just looking at a stone.
That's why they were wary and didn't take an initiative to launch an attack. It was too risky as they didn't have an idea what's the enemy skills.
"These weaklings are going to bother us?" Another witch said in an annoyed tone while looking at the people around them.
Eztein suddenly charged at them after drinking the mana potions. He had recovered some of his mana and it would be enough to fight these people.
Swoosh!
One of the witches raised an ice spear and blocked Eztein's halberd. The ice spear was his soul weapon and it has a power of a red grade weapon.
Bang!
"It's time for payback, bitches!!"
Eztein grinned as he looked at the witch with mad eyes. He couldn't properly fight before because he was carrying Yenxa and Gragas. Now that he was free from them, he could properly show these witches who's the boss.
He already knew their ability and combat prowess. Their combat prowess was low but they had speed and strength that could rival his own. And that doesn't matter to him.
He stepped forward and held the halberd with both of his hands. Then, he trusted it in different directions with different strengths and speeds.
Clang! Clang! Clang! Clang!
Another witch joined the battle and Eztein was exchanging blows with two peak S-rank witches.
"I thought that the Witch Clan is great but you are just an inexperienced bunch of children. There's no danger in this place so you haven't honed your skills in real battle. That's the difference between you and me."
Eztein continued to attack the two witches with different patterns. He had experienced fighting Souta before coming here and got tortured by their princess to death. What these witches experienced was nothing compared to him. The only threats here were the old folks that participated in the war decades ago.
Those old guys were dangerous even if they had low power levels, he wouldn't underestimate them.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Eztein shifted his body to the side as he avoided the ice spear. He stretched out his left hand and grabbed the spear. His palm slowly turned into ice but he ignored the pain and pulled the spear in his direction.
Swoosh!
He gritted his teeth as a beam of flames pierced his stomach. He tightly clenched his fingers around his halberd and stabbed it forward.
"Damn!"
Eztein cursed as the witch managed to avoid getting hit in the chest. Still, his halberd penetrated the shoulder of the witch that the ice spear as soul weapon.
It was at this time that Isabella appeared behind the witch. She quickly brandished her dagger and stabbed it forward.
Ugh!
The witch spat a mouthful of blood and he turned around while swinging his fist. His fist was too fast for Isabella and she didn't have a time to avoid it. It landed on her body crushing her rib cage.
Bang!
"Retreat!"
Isabella said before she crashed on the ground hundreds of meters away from the witch. She imbued poison in her dagger and even if she couldn't kill these witches with her killing techniques at least this poison will slow them down. She personally brewed this poison to take down S-rank but she hasn't tested it before so she didn't have an idea if this would knock down an S-rank. At the very least, this poison will affect the witches.
Eztein didn't know what she was planning but he still followed her commands. He saw several barriers forming around the three witches.
"What are they doing?"
The people on their side were using a huge amount of mana to create a tough barrier to imprison the three witches.
"It's not going to last long. They are simply wasting their mana by using it for a barrier."
He muttered but he saw the people retreat as fast as they could while pouring their mana on the barrier.
"Run!"
Isabella said before her body disappeared into shadows.
"What the hell?!"
Eztein cursed as he had an ominous feeling about it. He didn't have a choice but to use everything that he could to run away from this place.
Suddenly, he saw the floating fortress in the sky shoot a projectile towards the witches. It was so fast as it covered several kilometers in an instant.
"Shit!"
In the next moment, a blinding light erupted behind him as intense heat swept out in every direction. The shockwave behind him blow him away and the ground started to disintegrate.
BOOOMMM!!
