I sighed, avoiding a  ferocious wood claw, it was close to ripping my left ear. I used my sword to block another attack, which left me a scratch, these trees are faster than a normal person.

[Elfire, be careful! ]

The talking sphere had some worried eyes when I turned my head to see the attack, a pain that came from hell and made me fall to my knees. One of the trees attacked me from behind leaving a big scratch on my back. What scratch? It was a wound, a big one. The pain was insupportable, the trees stopped and began to watch me like I was their dinner, their eyes said everything. If I don't get up, I am gonna be their dinner.

[Bloody Hell, do you wanna end here eaten by some trees? ], Moro asked without expecting an answer at all, [Get up and fight, don't care about wounds, what are you a lowly succumb or a mighty demon from a noble family], how did he know that I was from a noble family? I am not in the best situation to ask him.

I stood up, I closed my eyes, and took a big breath.

I moved my sword in the direction of the sound and blocked the attack of a tree. My mind was blank, I had nothing of, full concentration.

"Let's end this here"

I raised my hand and conjured a small fire, the size of an ant, looking at the tree like a predator after his prey hurt him. My back was boiling, it was like a burning that wouldn't end.

"I am falling for a second trap, you damn tree", I declared, cutting the tree claw in pieces with my sword. The other monsters tried their luck too, but I jumped, avoiding their claws.

"Aregjg"

I saw many roots coming from the ground to hurt me, I couldn't them, but they were sharp. I conjured a small flame in my hand again and grabbed one of the roots, making a big cut in my palm. The good thing was that the root took a big flame and began to burn the other roots too, the trees were screaming, scared of the fire approaching them. I fell and stood up again, I turned my body which was quite tired by this much, quite disappointing, if you ask me. I could fight for hours and don't get tired, but I just fought for some minutes and I couldn't feel my legs.

"Your little brothers will play a bit with the fire. But you will play with me, I don't want to become rusty from fighting goblins, so be grateful that you will fight me. After all, you're the one who made me this big scar on my back", I said, releasing my aura and killing intent or anger, because I didn't kill so many to have a killing intent. My aura was dark with some violet parts in it. The tree took my challenge and sent dark, monstrous roots at me.

I raised my sword, held it tight, and smiled. It's time to play. I avoided the nearest attack by jumping above it.

"Moro what are your abilities as a sword", I asked using my voice.

[Adapting to my owner's power and affinities], his voice was full of superiority, [That mostly every contract sword ability, but some have special abilities]

The sphere began to move in different directions. He was a kid or a demon much older than me.

Then if the sword adapts to my power and affinities, then...

[Yes, Elfire, that's it], Moro said, giving me a smile in his sphere form, when I infused the sword with my dark magic.

"Circle of Darkness!", I screamed spinning and forming a dark circle that cut the moving roots.

When I felt my foot on the ground. My vision became clear again, the world was still spinning a bit.

"Fire Slash", I said, sending a fire slash from my sword. It cut the tree in half. I turned my head to see the others, who died from the small fire. I won, that we're the words which filled my head.

I collected the cores from the monsters, I may need a new shirt or something to cover my upper part because that claw ripped it. I don't know, maybe I should steal goblin's clothes.
