Chapter 169: Camp Clearing

It took Kathy a few hours to get the intel, which Sera required. The Sun had fully set by the time she had come back. She still looked like a female goblin, but after getting back to the team it didn't take long for her to change back.

When she was a human again, a shiver went through her and a satisfied smile spread on her face.

"Fuck, how much I hate these critters! I'm pretty sure at least half the camp asked me to have sex, or join an orgy..." She made a few retching sounds, before saying, "Fucking disgusting!"

Sera did say anything, just watched as Kathy looked through her whole body, making sure there wasn't anything green remaining on her skin. Eventually she seemed to realize why the rest of the team was staring at her and she quickly looked away with a blush.

"Uhm... The camp has only ascended and only a few dozen of them. We can take them with ease, ma'am" She tried to hide her embarrassment by going into attention, but it fooled no one.

"Good." Sera said and began walking towards the camp. The others followed and soon all four of them stood at its edge. She looked back over her shoulder and said, "Kill everyone."

Her voice contained no hatred, madness, or anything, but it still sent a fearful shiver down the team's spine. The solemn atmosphere soon turned much more excited though. It was rare to be able to just have fun killing goblins.

They were perfect for letting off steam since they were easy to kill and there seemed to be an infinite amount of them.

Hector was the happiest out of them all. He ran down the hill right into the goblin camp while laughing hysterically. He didn't even transform and just began massacring anything he saw. His fists only left pulps in their way.

Percy went in with a bit more decorum, but that didn't mean he wasn't enjoying the killing. He just simply didn't use his hands to deliver death.

Instead his purple energy took all sort of form, ranging from two meter spears that went through the goblins' heads, or large mallets squishing them flat. Sometimes he even made chains and pulled the goblins apart limb by limb.

Kathy just changed into a large six limbed black leopard and began tearing each goblin apart.

Sera watched for a few minutes, but eventually she joined the fun as well. Unlike the others she didn't use any ability or transformation, her glaive was more than enough to take care of any goblins below transcended.

Her glaive's blade cut through dozens of goblins at once with ease, even when an ascended appeared in front of her, it took just one swing and he fell over dead.

A bit farther away Hector was using a dead ascended goblin's body to smash anything he saw. He didn't have a fight in so long that he was currently in a mad frenzy, but there was still a lot more goblins to kill, so it wasn't that big of a problem.

At another part of the camp Percy was flying around as specks of purple light. He made weapons out of it and rained it down on dozens of goblins at once.

It shouldn't have worked so well, but Kathy was constantly running around, chasing every goblin right into the purple death falling from the skies.

The once silent camp was awash with screams of pain, suffering and despair. They simply didn't have the strength to even put up a fight against Sera and her team.

Sera was just about to reach the middle of the camp when twelve ascended goblin tried to ambush her. They quickly surrounded her and prepared to attack.

Each wore the same kind of armor, it was crude made of some otherworldly metal, most likely from their own realm. It was painted red and green.

Non of the goblins were higher than 1.4 meters, they didn't even reach Sera's chest in height.

They used a few different kinds of weaponry. A few had wicked curved sword, others had metal spears and a few used two handed hammers. There were even two who held crossbows.

Seeing her alone and surrounded the goblins' famous giggling began, but they still felt uncomfortable because of how nonchalant Sera looked.

She was leaning on her glaive with a bored expression. Her armor was nowhere to be seen and she even yawned a bit, pretending to be sleepy.

The goblins looked at each other seemingly confused of what to do next. Eventually they attacked without much coordination. On Sera's face a terrifying grin appeared, it was rare she had a chance to train with living enemies of overwhelming numbers.

The first two goblin attacked. The first one's weapon, a serrated shortsword, moved so fast that it left afterimages as it split the air. Another using its spear which got absorbed in some dark energy, tried to stab her in the back.

With one quick move Sera stopped the sword and deflected the spear. In the next moment she stepped forward and ducked below the crossbow bolt aimed at her head. It exploded somewhere farther to her left.

The first two tried to disengage, but only one had the legs to actually do so. The one that held the spear was too slow to survive Sera's glaive, which passed right through his midsection.

Sera could've even killed the first goblin, but she was too surprised to do so. Her glaive's blade felt resistance. This was the first time she saw something that could even slow its destructive power.

From the outside her glaive didn't look like much, just a really beautiful golden weapon. In reality the blade was made of her phoenix flames, which burned at a few thousand degrees, possibly hotter than the surface of the Sun. That's why she was so shocked to see something withstand it even for a moment.

Strangely enough weapons could withstand more of the blade's onslaught than armor. It was probably some hidden effect of the glaive, also the handle didn't burn as hot, only the blade part and only on contact.

The goblin's green blood bubbled where Sera split him in two pieces. She stared at it only for a second before realizing that if they can withstand her attacks even for a moment they could actually be dangerous to her.

She also only remembered now, that unlike humans other races' evolved couldn't transform, instead they got some of their race specific abilities. This meant she would have to deal with eleven deadly abilities all at once.

Of course it wasn't that big of a problem since they had basically no coordination, but even getting a small injury could lead to a delay in their schedule.

It only took her that second to think through all this and it took her even less time to fully transform. In the third second the middle of the camp exploded into bright whitish-gold flames, burning everything in its close proximity.

Everybody that was still alive in the camp looked at the ball of fire with horror and despair. The surviving goblins began running away, but the rest of the team thoroughly hunted down everyone.

After an hour since the explosion the whole group reconvened at the top of the hill. From this vantage the destruction could seen in a much more detailed fashion. The whole camp was on fire, the ground was painted green by goblin blood and corpses lay everywhere.

There were the usual male and female goblin warriors, but the camp was also full of regular workers and children. If someone didn't know goblins they would definitely think that Sera was a monster and if someone said it to her face, she wouldn't disagree.

How could a good or at least neutral person condemn hundreds of children to their deaths?

People would say that 'children aren't born evil' and that 'they just need better parents and a healthy upbringing to turn out good'... How wrong those people would be...

Goblins are in fact born evil, they were the exception from that rule. It was in their genes and no matter who their parents were, a goblin will always grow up to be a rapist slaver with murderous and psychotic tendencies.

They are also like pests, reproducing much faster than humans. By the time they are six years old, they are fully mature, but their first kill or rape happens much sooner than that!

This is why Sera would let people judge and condemn her. She would let others try to speak and be civil with goblins. She would let them be taken and she would let them learn the truth on their own.

The team watched the beautiful sight in front of them. They were grinning while watching the fruits of their work go up in flames.

Suddenly Sera's eyes changed targets. There was something coming towards the island, something big, something strong, something deadly...

"Everyone we are moving! NOW!" She shouted her voice containing a small tremble. Sera didn't even wait for the others to react and within a second she was high in the air.

Soon the others followed her and they all watched the island from the cloudless night sky.

They were hundreds of meters in the air, the fires below looked like small specks on a giant canvas.

The rest of the team was still confused why they needed to leave so fast, but soon the answer came.

Below them a gigantic roar shook reality itself. The whole group watched in terror as the island named Skyros seemed to rise in the air and in the next moment get swallowed by a creature which's size was just simply incomprehensible.

Skyros was a large island 10 kilometer to its shorter and 30 to its longer end. The monster's maw was even bigger, they had only seen a few of its teeth as it swallowed the giant island whole.

Sera stared down in awe. She left the island fast, because she thought a horror was about to attack, but she definitely misjudged the monster's class...

She never truly understood the fifth class's meaning, but looking at the area where the island was, only one word that came to her mind when she thought about that monster...

Abomination...
