Along the way to the village, a human screamed.
"Over there!"
—It's near.
I kicked off the ground, and bolted off for the sound of weapons clashing. As I did, I enchanted my sword, and black flames wrapped around it. They burned in the same rage that filled my heart.
"It's a monster! They're coming from behind too!"
It looks like they're fighting someone up ahead.
I filled my arms and my legs with power, and when I was near enough, I slashed down with my great sword, cutting the human in half from shoulder to waist, letting loose a sea of blood that dyed the ground in its hue.
"There will be no mercy for those who resist!" I said while flicking off the blood from my blade.
But the humans did not cower at my proclamation, and instead formed a wall with their numbers, as they brought their shields forward and readied their spear in that "Hedgehog"-like formation they assumed earlier.
If that's how you want it, then...
"Allow me to reward your courage with death!"
Wielding my great sword upon my shoulders, I ran toward the humans. My aim was the tip of their spears. I would attack in the same moment they did, so I left my flanks wide open to lure them.
When the humans struck out their spears—
"GURUuuOOoooOAaa!!"
I swung my great sword with my howl and broke their spears, but I didn't stop there. I kept going, and wrecked havoc upon the now disarmed humans, sending forth those with shields with another swing, while I sent the rest on their way with a tackle, then I left them in the dust.
I went through them like a bull, never stopping once, for I knew that the worst case scenario was for me to be stopped. I might have the upper-hand in strength, but the power of numbers is not something that should ever be made light of.
I need to keep making the first move and pull the humans into my pace, or the odds of victory will be low.
"What is that monster!? Is that a goblin!?"
As screams and jeers resounded in the battlefield, I plunged my sword into another man.
As I cut my way through, I gradually closed in on the battle up ahead.

"Enemy attack? What poor timing." Gowen stood with his hands upon his sword's pommel as it stood erect from the ground, glaring toward the path ahead.
"I guess I'll have to go then," Gulland said as he attempted to join the fray.
"Just go with the carriage," Gowen said without even turning to him. There was no waste among his words. Saying only what needed to be said, he stood there like a wall ready to stand against whatever might come.
"Mill, you drive this carriage until we leave the forest. Don't stop no matter what," Gulland said to Mill before climbing up the roof of the carriage and wielding his great sword, Blue Thunder. His daunting pose as he looked up the path ahead was truly heroic. He looked just like those heroes in tales of old. And despite her dislike for the man, even Mill couldn't help but be fascinated when she saw that face beaming with ferocity.
