Journal of Miyara Kyosuke (40)
Goru engaged the elemental
as I had requested, while I started Clown Fighting against the
orcs. We fought back to back against the horde.
I kept hitting against the orcs, killing my seventh
while the half dozen around me giggled and snorted in laughter.
The White Fairy was not doing so well, as although he was fighting as
hard as he could, the demon hit him back heavily and he staggered under
the blow.
As I turned my attention to my next foe, I caught
sight of Goru reeling from yet another blow. While I was in fine
health, completely untouched, he was starting to look quite ragged.
Goru finally scored a heavy hit on the elemental,
and dodged the return blow this time. I followed up my previous
attack with
another well placed strike, continuing to dodge any loose blows that
headed my way from the orcs.
Goru continued his fight, but a lucky blow from the
elemental landed hard on him. Having found my opponent's weak
spot, I continued to press the advantage, but he was proving
exceptionally persistent.
Goru smashed his maul into the elemental again, but
he was unable to dodge the return blow and was tossed to the floor
where he fell unconscious. My
opponent refused to fall despite my continual blows, but my Clown
Fighting technique assured that no blows fell on me.
The earth elemental began climbing up the
stairs. I broke free of the encircling orcs and continued Goru's
work on the massive creature, using Clown Fighting the best I
could. I hit the demon and attracted its attention. I
attracted
it too well, though, and he hit me hard. I remembered seeing the
ground as it rose
up to strike me, and I passed out silently at the feet of my foes.
