Red always did his best to avoid close combat during his early hunts. From his perspective, it was stupid to fight up close, putting his life at risk when he could kill his enemy from a distance. But he slowly changed his mind now. In the war against the kobolds, and the fight against the Kobold Scouts now.
The fight was pretty much simpler after he ambushed the first two groups. With his long-range sword, he cut two more kobolds before they could get closer to him.
As he expected, the second group of six kobolds tried to circle him. They came from behind and above, but he heard them coming. The Kobold Scouts made noise; the rustling leaves alerted him.
He easily dodged the ambush as three kobolds jumped at him at the same time. He only needed to take two steps to the side, and the three goblins were within his sight and rage. Before they could land on the branch after failing to ambush him, his sword cut through their body.
