Erend took his dagger and held it in his left hand. While in his right hand he holds a rifle. The Unicorn Rider Elves looked at him with puzzled and surprised looks.
Erend ran towards one of the Elves and started firing the rifle. Bullets rained down on the Elf and made it difficult for him to move.
Erend jumped so high and plunged his dagger into the Elf's neck and they fell from the Unicorn. The unicorn he was riding on neighed angrily and kicked Erend until he was blown away.
Then the Unicorn ran towards Erend. His horns started to glow and from the horns, lightning ca out and struck Erend.
Erend crossed his arms in front of his face and blocked the Unicorn's lightning strike. The [Dragon Scale] skill that was still active allowed him to withstand the attack easily.
All the Elves were there and stared at Erend with wide eyes. The shock made them wasn't able to move.
Erend's rifle was shattered by the Unicorn's lightning. But the dagger was still intact. Erend jumped at the Unicorn who was rushing towards him. One hand held the horn of the Unicorn, while the other hand stuck the dagger into the horned horse's neck.
"HHAAAAAA!"
Erend shouted while throwing the Unicorn away. Then he stood with the body covered in Unicorn blood and still wrapped in the reddish-black scales.
Erend beca a figure who gave new terror to the Elves.
"What did you see?!" Challenge Erend. "Let's fight!"
All the emotions he had experienced since the first ti plunged into the battlefield. All the dead friends were snatched away by the damn pointy-eared creature. All those emotions grew bigger and bigger inside Erend's chest. Much bigger than before.
An Elf who seed to be the leader of the Unicorn riding Elf army commanded in the Elf language. Erend didn't know what it ant but he could guess that it was an order to attack. Because what happened next was that the Unicorn-riding Elves had indeed charged toward Erend.
Erend took the spear from the corpse of the Elf he had just killed and used it to fight. The spear felt light in Erend's hand. He never knew how to fight with a spear. But he knows one thing. If he thrust the spear hard enough, the Elf who was on the tip of the spear would die.
So Erend did that. He kept [Dragon Scale] active without realizing that his MP would be drained.
All spears, swords, and magic thrown at Erend can be resisted by his scale. The Elves were starting to get scared. Erend thrusts his spear and hits an Elf. He fell and the Unicorn he was riding, in turn, attacked Erend. And Erend also killed the Unicorn.
The battle between Erend and the army continued until the Unicorn Riders began to retreat and reduced the intensity of their attacks. Suddenly, Erend felt his body beco weak. He fell to his knees.
"Shit. What happened?"
'You're starting to run out of MP. Don't you know that using Skills requires MP?' Tut's voice echoed in his head.
[ MP: 3/10 ]
"I know but... I didn't think about it."
Realizing their enemy seed to have lost strength, the Elves drew closer and charged at Erend. But from the direction of the trench, the bombardnt ca surprising the Elves.
Erend looked up and saw the soldiers had co out of the trenches and were walking in line towards them.
"KEEP FIRING!" shouted Lt. Boartusk.
Those who have run out of rifle ammo shoot with pistols. Those who had run out of pistol bullets held their daggers. Waiting for the right mont to plunge the dagger at the Elves.
Seeing the smoldering spirit of his comrades, Erend smirked. Then he got up slowly.
'Hey, Tut. Will my MP fill up by itself?' asked Erend in his mind.
'Yes. But for now, your MP will fill up very slowly. When intelligence increases, your MP and MP regeneration speed will also increase,' replied Tut.
'Alright.'
The Elves were starting to feel depressed. They would technically win against the humans who had run out of bullets.
But the presence of a human figure who could provide heavy resistance and had killed several of them, made the Elves hesitate.
The spirit of the humans who looked like he couldn't die. Sothing the Elves had never seen before.
The leader of the Unicorn-riding Elf felt that this situation was not in their favor. So he ordered his soldiers to retreat.
But Erend didn't let them back off that easily. He grabbed the Elf's spear and sword that lay on the ground and struck back.
"HHYAAA!!!"
Erend thrust his spear at the Elf riding on the Unicorn causing it to fall. Then Erend continued by slashing the leg of the Unicorn that the Elf was riding beside him.
The Unicorn rolled over then Erend stabbed the sword at him. Even though he no longer had the MP to use Skills, Erend could still fight with the strength he had.
The Elves were furious to see Erend kill their comrades so cruelly. But their anger had to stop because the soldiers were getting closer.
The leader shouted his orders and the Elf riders retreated into the Portal. Erend looked at those who were retreating in fear with a smirk on his face.
"Yeah! Run into your mother's lap!" Erend shouted.
The soldiers who arrived next to him shouted the sa taunts and curses to escort the Elves away until they entered the portal.
"Ha Ha Ha! They run like cowards!" Billy who was already beside Erend said.
Erend turned weakly towards him. He wanted to add Billy's taunts to the Elves. But his gaze shook and the whole world seed to roll over. Or actually, it was Erend who had rolled down on the ground.

When Erend opened his eyes he thought that he would be on the bed and staring at the ceiling of his room. But this ti he was in a large outdoor place.
Erend imdiately looked up at the blue sky as soon as he woke up. The soft grass surface was underneath. Erend sat up and spread his gaze around. He was next to a small lake.
"Hello."
A voice startled Rainn and he turned his head. Standing next to him, was the figure of the Elf girl he had seen in the Portal that ti.
Erend imdiately jumped to his feet and stepped away. He was with the enemy now.
"Why am I here?" Erend asked, sharply.
"Sorry. But I just wanted to talk to you," said Aurdis. The Elf Princess.
