When the first ogre's club fell atop of Cecilia, she easily dodged out of the way.
Then in one swift slash, she cut the ogre right across the chest, creating a deep wound that even exposed the bone underneath.
The ogre's eyes immediately rolled back in its head before it fell to the ground.
With how still it was, it was clear that it had lost its life in one single slash from Cecilia.
But she didn't stop moving after taking down this first ogre.
There were still three more ogres that were charging at her.
The next ones to reach them were a pair of ogres that had come from either side of her. Both of them swung their clubs horizontally at her, coming from different angles so that she couldn't dodge out of the way.
Cecilia didn't move at first when she saw this, but then she suddenly…jumped into the air.
She found that she was able to jump much higher than normal as she had expected and she was able to jump right over the clubs of the ogres.
However, since the clubs had already been swung, it wasn't as if they could be stopped that suddenly.
The two clubs slammed into each other.
With the force that the two ogres had swung the clubs at, both of them couldn't help being stunned by the force of the other ogre. Both of them just stood there in a daze with numb arms as Cecilia flew over them.
Cecilia wasn't idle during her time in the air.
Holding her sword tightly, she started spinning in the air as she swung her sword at the two stunned ogres.
Her sword was long enough to reach both of them, so she was able to cut both of them on the neck.
The skin of ogres was thick, almost as thick as well made leather armour, so it was normally hard to cut through. But her sword cut right through the necks of these two ogres like a hot knife through butter.
It was just like when she had cut through the necks of the goblin magicians.
With a large "thud", there were two large ogre corpses that fell to the ground at the same time before a smaller "thud" was heard as two heads fell to the ground.
The last ogre that had been charging at Cecilia couldn't help hesitating after seeing all of this. It suddenly slowed down as it was charging at Cecilia, but then it decided to go all in.
This moment of hesitation was all that Cecilia needed as she landed and then swung down at the ogre.
The ogre raised its club to block it, but this downward slash was just too powerful.
The club was cut right in half and then the sword continued to fall, landing on the ogre's head.
There was no resistance at all as the ogre was cut right in half.
Blood splattered all over from this ogre being cut in half like this, but Cecilia had quickly moved out of the way to dodge this blood splatter.
During this entire fight, she hadn't gotten a single drop of blood on her since she had always dodged out of the way.
After the last ogre fell, there was silence that followed right after.
Both the monsters and the humans all stood there in a daze, staring at Cecilia with different expressions.
The monsters had looks of shock and fear, while the humans had looks of shock and admiration.
Cecilia saw the way that her men looked at her and she revealed an annoyed look before shouting, "What are all of you standing there for! There's still monsters to take down!"
The humans immediately came back to their senses after being snapped at by Cecilia and turned to face the monsters.
The monsters were still in a daze as the humans charged at them, but they quickly came out of that daze when they saw the humans swinging their weapons. All of the monsters immediately dodged out of the way, but there were some that couldn't dodge in time.
So these monsters had no choice but to use their weapons to block the human weapons.
They thought they were dead since they had seen how Cecilia had cut the ogre in half along with its weapon, but they found that this wasn't the case. These humans were nowhere near as strong as that woman, so they couldn't even dent their weapons.
Seeing this, the monsters were filled with vigor once again.
They knew that as long as they were able to avoid fighting Cecilia and could break free from these humans, they would be able to escape.
Once they saw a path of hope, a path of life, the monsters started fighting again.
The humans were weaker than monsters, so they had to group up to fight these monsters.
Not to mention that these monsters were going all out since they would die otherwise, so they were fighting with more strength than usual.
The saying that there was nothing more dangerous than a cornered beast applied to this situation very well.
So if left alone, the humans would have been slowly pushed back by the monsters.
That is if they had been left alone.
Cecilia took only a moment to catch her breath before diving into the fight again.
With the speed that she moved at, there wasn't a single monster that was able to escape from her. Then with the strength that she possessed, she was able to cut through all of them with a single slash.
She was like a monster herself with the way that she tore through this battlefield.
But she didn't let herself get caught up in the fight and she fought with her brain instead of with her brawn.
She didn't charge into the battle without a plan, instead she only attacked when her subordinates were about to be defeated by the monster that they were fighting. She only made a move when she needed to save someone.
Like this, they were able to clear out the battlefield and they were able to do it without a single casualty.
Once they finished off the monsters, they immediately left since they were certain that the noise that they had caused would attract more monsters to come.
Once they were surrounded, they would be finished.
