Chapter 814 Overconfidence

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

As soon as they heard their King\'s command, all the \'Goblin Elites\' immediately rushed to attack Emilia\'s team in excitement. Clearly, their courage had reached its peak thanks to their boss joining the battle, and they already believed that the outcome of the battle could only be in their favor.

Facing the dual assault, Emilia couldn\'t help but frown. "Move closer to me, everyone!"

Danielle and the rest of her team clearly didn\'t feel very safe with the green flames raining down continuously, but they also knew that there was little choice. If they weren\'t close enough to Emilia, it wouldn\'t be so easy for her to protect them all. And if any one of them were to be caught off-guard by some \'stray\' attack, it was very likely that their team wouldn\'t be able to recover from the loss, inevitably losing this crucial fight.

"Kill the elites first! Once it\'s just the boss left, we can handle it!"

The Goblin King laughed at Emilia\'s rather na?ve words, but her teammates obviously believed in her and followed it. He found it quite amusing.

Unfortunately for them, even if they did everything perfectly, the \'Area of Effect\' of the Rain of Torment was simply too great. Emilia\'s [Challenger\'s Charm] might have made it impossible for the boss to \'focus\' on anyone but herself, but he seemed to have figured out a way to attack the others anyway.

\'It looks like I was overestimating them too much. After disrupting their rhythm a little, they\'re just a bunch of little girls without a proper leader.\' The boss chuckled.

No longer reserving his energy for the other countermeasures, he pumped even more into the [Rain of Torment], increasing its intensity nearly twofold.

Danielle and Robin could only grit their teeth and bear the pain, not wanting to express their pain, but Nico and Crystal weren\'t quite as successful.

"Ahh!"

"Ouch!"

Of course, even if they were to only grunt, the [Vigilance] skill from Emilia\'s \'crown\' made it impossible for her to ignore their plight.

\'They\'ve already lost nearly a third of their HP even though they avoided the brunt of the attack…\' Emilia frowned. \'Can they really hold on…?\'

No matter how worried she was, however, Emilia didn\'t have the ability to help Crystal and the others any further.

She was barely able to avoid most of the blades of all the Goblin Elites that had poured in moments before, after all, and the \'Rain of Torment\' wasn\'t helping either. Not only was most of her carefully picked clothing now either scorched or gone, but even some of the exposed silky skin underneath was now frighteningly red.

Watching everyone\'s HP go down, Nico had no choice but to stop casting [Mend Wounds] on Emilia, and use the area healing [Minor Heal] instead.

Of course, while it saved everyone else from dying, not being able to use [Mend Wounds] as frequently on Emilia meant that she was no longer able to hit her \'max HP\' as frequently, and her situation obviously became a lot more dangerous.

The Goblin King grinned. "Hoho… looking at you move like that, I\'m getting more and more excited!"

In fact, only he knew that if he so wished, the wounds that Emilia suffered wouldn\'t be so \'superficial\', and maybe she would have fallen long ago. But he had to be careful not to burn his own meal, after all. If he just wanted to screw a burnt corpse, why would he go through so much trouble?

The giant goblin motioned to his strongest remaining elite, and then swung his staff around before slamming it down with a resounding \'Bang!\'.

The shockwave that erupted from the base of his staff as well as the area of the ground that had been pierced by his subordinate\'s sword sent Emilia stumbling back despite doing her best to resist. And to make matters worse, the momentary lapse also made her unable to dodge the subsequent lunge from a nearby goblin, who easily pierced her thigh with his jagged sword.

Emilia\'s HP was lowered from being between two hundred and two fifty to just around a hundred, and if not for Nico\'s timely [Mend Wounds], it might just have disappeared completely.

The pain from the deep wound combined with everything else finally made the crimson-haired elf moan in pain, greatly increasing the anxiety of her teammates, as well as the excitement of her enemies.

They knew that as long as stopped doing her job as their only \'Tank\', the backliners of her team would be easy pickings.

"Graah!" The goblin who managed to stab her so well screamed in excitement, only for its head to be swiftly turned to ash by a green fireball from his own king.

"Don\'t ruin it! Your strikes have to be shallow enough to heal without leaving a scar!" The \'Goblin King\' snorted angrily. \'After going through so much trouble, I have to get at least a few rounds of use out of this little elf!\'

Her teammates were obviously furious, and the attacks on the remaining [Goblin Elites] intensified, but the boss didn\'t care.

The exhaustion within their eyes couldn\'t be hidden, and their supply of mana potions also couldn\'t be endless. Since it was impossible for them to take him down now, why should he be worried?

As he predicted, when there were just three [Goblin Elites] left, the \'healer\' finally stopped chugging down mana potions carelessly, and obviously looked anxious while holding her staff.

Even if she had a few more left… it was already over.

The Goblin King stepped back with a grunt. "This lord is impressed. Go on, finish them off, then I shall subdue you personally and make you mine."

Emilia gave him an obviously disgusted look, but in her current state, it only made her look more \'inviting\' to the boss.

"Heh… as I thought, compared to those red strings around your thighs, real blood really does look so much better."

An arrow of light from Crysta\'s bow obliterated another two of his subordinates, but the Goblin King only felt his excitement mounting further as he watched.

"My lord, s-save, save me!"

Even when his last remaining elite, the giant swordsman, begged on his knees, he only grinned. "Well… as you wished, everyone else is gone, and it\'s just me in front of you."

The beautiful crimson-haired elf in front of him was obviously exhausted, and looked about ready to collapse at any time. She didn\'t even seem to have the energy to retort.

He chuckled. "You have two choices now, little elf. Get down on your knees and serve me well so I\'m in a good enough mood to spare your friends, or… watch them die before I take you anyway."
