Dominic ran on with all his speed. They had to make an interception before the Stolks got to the other party. He had to be fast. Besides, he had a two tasks to accomplish.
He ran on and once he was close enough to sight them he turned backwards and signalled others to halt. They stopped all together and he smiled.
"We attack from behind the buildings. Use their shadows as point of connection to prevent any mistakes." Dominic said as lowly as possible.
He smiled and held his sword firmly and watched the rear. The Stolks were closing in on them. He sighed lightly and waved his sword in the air.
"System, I hope I get a good reward for all these." Dominic muttered as he dashed around, going all around and taking in from behind. The sight of their backs was even more disgusting than their front. They seemed to be slimy in some way.
[Host gains 2000 EXP for the minor task and stands a chance to gain a tier two skill.]
Dominic sighed. His eyes glared around the surroundings. "Fair enough then. Let's do this."
He ran with full speed and from behind with all his might he slashed a strike at the chest of a Stolk. The cut connected and he cleaved it through the chest and cut the body of the Stolk into two.
[1/5 Stolks killed. 400 EXP gained.]
Dominic sprinted forward and noticing that two were far behind the others, he decided to take them down at once. He ran on not stopping for a second to breathe. The faster he was, the more efficient his strikes would be.
He approached one of the Stolks and dug his sword in the chest of the Stolk. He side step and tried to cut through but the Stolk caught his sword. Dominic gasped in fear.
He might as well die in the process of accomplishing his task. He twisted the sword and tried to cut through again but the grip if the Stolk was too firm and tight to be broken.
"Damn!" Dominic cursed. He looked behind him and saw the other Stolk closing in. This was going to be bad. He tried to fight himself free but it seemed impossible.
He sighed as he had no other option than to forfeit the sword. He left the sword and swayed his fist to slam against the Stolk that was behind him.
The pinch was brutal and the face of the Stolk was fleshed out. Blood pumped out of the face of the Stolk. Dominic smiled at his hand work. His physical strength was good enough to lay such impact on the Stolk.
But that was not what he needed to take the Stolk down. The Stolk punched him hard on the chest and he skidded across the ground.
He looked out to notice that the two Stolks were coming at him. He cursed under his breathe. He got up steadily and graced himself up. Blood spouted from his forehead.
He dashed forward towards the Stolks and slammed himself tightly on them. He smiled as he got hit by their hard frame but he had his own plans.
He pulled out the sword from the Stolk and he pushed himself backwards. The Stolks stared at him in shock. He smiled evenly.
"Let's see. You were able to predict my attack because I let out too much of my guard. Now let's square these things up." Dominic muttered.
He rushed at it with great velocity and made an attempt to strike the Stolk with his sword but he dropped the sword and as they attempted to counter his attack, he slammed his fists hardly against their head.
"System engage 100 EXP into my strength stat." Dominic said and pushed in further.
[100 EXP Engaged into Strength Stat.]
[Strength: 210/160]
In an instant the heads of the Stolks fell to the ground. The sheer power of his strength had knocked off their heads. He smiled.
He turned around and saw the Ghosts taking down the other Stolks. He smiled lightly.
[3/5 Stolks killed 800 EXP gained.]
Dominic sighed and picked up his sword. He stared at it and reflected back to his last fight . He smiled as he knew that he had been too weak to weird it to slice the Stolk.
"Sorry we were late. We did not know what next to do after you left. You left so sudden." Alice said as she approached Dominic . He turned sharply to stare at her.
[Affection:94% , Charm:78% , Trust: 89%]
Dominic sighed lightly. He walked forward towards Alice and smiled. It was not her blame but his system. He had gone head on with the Stolks with his bare hands. No Ability. No Skill. Just a B rank sword.
"Why did you not use your super speed like before?" Alice asked curiously but Dominic shoved her aside and caught the punch of a Stolk.
He swayed around with all his might and sent it crashing against the houses. The Stolk bruised itself hardly. He smiled lightly.
"Uhmm. Huh." Alice muttered in shock. She had just been saved by Dominic. He had saved from a Stolk.
Dominic ran towards the Stolk and upon reaching the Stolk he cleaved his sword through the body and it cut sharply.
Dominic looked around. His senses became alert.
[Super Smell. Enemies Approaching ]
Dominic scuffed and ran with great speed towards the source of the smell. He then jumped up, his body being lighter than he remembered let him levitate higher than he anticipated.
From the height he was he could see the swarm of Stolks approaching. He landed on a roof top and looked down at Alice.
"We have to advance. More Stolks are approaching. Let's make this fast." Dominic said. Alice smiled lightly and sprinted together with Dominic as they ran forward.
"You saved my life. Thank you." Alice said with a blush. Dominic continued running but the words hit him hard. He looked at her and noticed her blush. A blush appeared across his cheeks.
"He is more handsome in his blush. He is a god of beauty." Alice muttered to herself.

Dominic smiled. He had a bigger task ahead of him. He ran on and intercepted with the Stolks. He jumped off and landed on a Stolk, using his sword to cleave through the body of the Stolk.
[4/5 Stolk killed. 400 EXP gained]
He rotated with his new found agility. He felt too light and as such he moved with great ease.
A Stolk tried to punch him but he back flipped backwards and cut the arm of the Stolk with great efficiency. The arm of the Stolk fell down with great ease. He then swiped his sword across the head of the Stolk.
The head fell to the ground. Dominic sighed. He smiled as he felt a new found strength.
