My Second Life Is A Heroic Power Fantasy 88 The Battle Of Darkshire Woods Part 3

Seeing the goblins heading towards Madeleine, Jack broke into a run, trying to intercept them before they got to her.

"Maddy! RUN!" He yelled to her as he ran.

Madeleine's attention shot towards him, and then around until she noticed the goblins closing towards her with drawn blades. She finally seemed to realize what was happening because her eyes grew wide in fear, and she turned and ran back into the cave.

Summoning up a spellword, Jack went to throw out his hand to cast a spell at the two running greenskins, but before he could get the word out, something behind him slammed hard into his back, knocking him flying p.r.o.ne to the ground and knocking the air clean out of his lungs. Throwing himself over onto his back, Jack found himself suddenly pinned as a goblin with a large club clambered on top of him and began trying to strike his face with it.

Jack pulled his arms and axe up to try and protect his head as the goblin battered at him with the club. He tried to throw his weight around to toss the snotling off, but no matter how he s.h.i.+fted or jerked the goblin remained perched on top of him, wailing away at his arms and shoulders. Within moments, Jack began to lose feeling in his hands, and he felt panic starting to overtake him. Frantically trying to find a way out before he had his brains bashed in, he threw his weight to the side to free one of his arms, and aimed his palm at the center of the goblin's ma.s.s.

"Corsage!"

With a blinding flash and a near-deafening bang, the goblin was knocked flying backwards several feet, where it lay stunned and disoriented. Clamboring to his feet, Jack looked towards the cave entrance to see the two goblins disappearing into the shadows inside. Seeing this, Jack felt his blood run cold.

No. No. No no no no NO.

With horror pouding in his gut, Jack cast another spell, pouring magical energy into his body to maximize his Prowess. In an instant, his speed doubled, then tripled, and he cleared the s.p.a.ce to the

cave entrance in record time before he dove headlong into the darkness after them, his axe held at the ready.

He couldn't see well in the darkness of the cave pa.s.sage, with the only light being the moonlight and other light sources from outside the cave entrance. He strained his ears to listen for the goblins or Madeleine. He had to keep her safe. He had already lost one of his friends to monsters. He wasn't about to lose another.

He was about halfway down the pa.s.sage when he heard Maddy screaming something from what would be Urien's side of the cave. Throwing caution to the wind, Jack lowered his guard and sprinted for the room. As he ran, there was the sound of tumbling, something breaking, then the smash of furniture, then another scream, this time from a goblin. There was a hard slap, and what sounded like Madeleine crying out in pain. Jack's pulse was roaring in his ears as reached the split and turned towards Urien's room. Nothing would happen to her. Nothing would happen. He wouldn't allow it.

Rounding the turn past the split, he could see the faint light from the flickering fireplace, casting large, dim shadows on the wall to his right as he approached. There was the sound of something tearing, and m.u.f.fled screaming. One of the goblins was giggling and muttering something in goblin tongue as Jack reached the point where he could see inside the room.

The two goblins had pinned Madeleine to the bed, and one of them held her there, his hand over her mouth as the other struggled to remove his trousers.
