What made it even scarier was how it all happened. The instant they all jumped to bite him, without so much as lifting a finger or moving his mouth. Ice spikes rose from the ground just like before and pierced them.
Just like that, there was no chants and nothing which stood out. But before she could even try to understand what had happened.
*ROAAAAARR!!*
Once again, the sound of a roar resounded around them as large ape-like monsters jumped from tree to tree around them. They were surrounded.
They were all surrounded, the girl quickly recognised the monsters. It was a group of Gobrigas.
A large stiff chest with broad shoulders and a bent down stance as they stood on all fours due to their long arms and short legs. They stood at two to one and a half metres tall and It's appearance was similar to that of a gorilla.
The girl couldn't believe it, each and every one of them were A-Rank monsters known for travelling alone. Just one of them was enough to rule a forest. So if a group of them were came, that could only lead to one possibility.
The girl quietly hoped that it wasn't what she had thought it was, but unfortunately for her, things just didn't go her way.
The sound of something being pounded resonated through the forest as what seemed to be their leader, jumped off the tree to the ground, slamming it as it landed. Cracks were formed from the impact and the amount of pressure only increased as it observed them.
It was just like a regular Gobriga but it's large stiff chest was covered by an iron chest plate and it had wide giant arms with muscles popping out of them. It's frame and size twice that of the others. It was an S-Rank monster, considered one of the kings of the forest. Great Gobriga.
Only one in hundreds could be born and when it did, it instantly stood out for the regulars.
Upon seeing this, the two wolves tried to run, but they were taken down by the two regular Gobrigas as they jumped down from the trees
Slamming the wolves backs and breaking their spine on impact. The wolves let out a cry of pain as they tried to fight back but because of the damage they had sustained in the initial hit, they could barely stand.
Then as if, whacking a flea, the Gobrigas effortlessly, finished off the wolves with a single swing. The girl watched as they flew towards a nearby trees, piercing their backs as they landed on the sharp broken edges.
They let out painful whails as this happened before slowly passing away as their bodies flowed down the trees.
The girl who saw this, took a small step back while keeping her chant on stand-by as she waited for them to make their move.
However, contrary to her expectations, they didn't move, they simply stood there. Those who were at the trees also stood and waited while swinging from one tree to another.
She couldn't tell how many there were in total, but she was sure that they were planning something. Somewhat worried, she quickly turned to the boss, the Great Gobriga as he must have been the one commanding them.
And right when she did, the loud sound of drums being pounded resounded through the area at a high pitch. Confused at what was causing it, she felt her heart sink as she realised what was causing it.
It was the Great Gobriga, it was pounding it's chest. But by the time she realised, it was too late. Suddenly, all at once. The Gobrigas, all jumped and rushed at the young man, completely ignoring the girl.
The Great Gobriga had his attention on the young man throughout the whole time, it most likely sensed a greater danger from him, making him the priority. It was an intelligent monster.
As they all charged at the young man, the girl knew she couldn't sit back and do nothing. He was strong but there were over 10 A-Rank monsters all heading towards him. The other 10 waited on the trees.

A bright green glow resonated throughout her hands as a small air sphere was formed in between them.
She didn't have her staff, making it harder to control, but she was able to properly do it.
The air in the area around them began to rotate at high speeds, forming a tornado near the trees. In a normal situation, that wouldn't have done anything to them, their grip strength could easily break bones reinforced with magic.
However, that wasn't her intention. The wind tornado merged with the snow blizzard as water could also be seen rising from the ground before spinning along with the tornado.
This mixture caused the Gobrigas in the tree to start to freeze, even though their fur kept them warm in that cold. The snow was too strong, and when mixed with the water. There was no doubt they'd freeze.
Seeing this, they began leaping back and away from the tornado. The reason they didn't push forward to attack was simple, they weren't ordered to.
"That's all I can do…" She muttered as a cold sweat dripped from her face
But once again, as she slowly turned her head to see how the young man was doing against, the 10 A-Rank monsters. She found herself being surprised yet again.
Without so much as the mutter of a word, ice spikes were rising from the ground, beneath each of the Gobrigas, piercing at them from beneath.
This showed her that what she had seen before wasn't a coincidence. It seemed like another easy victory. That was until she saw the Gobrigas continue to charge at him.
The Ice Spikes hadn't slowed them down at all, and it had barely managed to pierce their skin.. Unfazed by the attack, they all made their way towards the young man.
