Chapter 13 - Goblin Village


Charlus quickly finished with school. Detention was horrible but he was able to get through it. Charlus went home and freshened up. Then he went outside and noticed something missing.

Where was his new car? Charlus looked around and saw that his new car was nowhere near his home. He sighed.

“Someone must have stolen it from me. I will make sure that that person will suffer in my hands.”

Obviously, Charlus could not go to the police. So he decided to leave the matter. He had more important things to do.

Charlus packed a meal and went to the forest. He entered the forest and went to the goblin colony. The moment he went to the colony, he found the familiar Goblin Chief.

He wanted to go and greet the Goblin Chief but was stopped by the number of unfamiliar goblins surrounding the Goblin Chief.

[Spear Goblin Lvl 9]

[Goblin Guard Lvl 10]

Charlus was surprised and frightened at the same time. There were a dozen goblins there and they were all Lvl 9 or above. Charlus knew that they weren’t part of the colony though. This was because of how they interacted with the Goblin Chief.

The Goblin Chief was kneeling in front of the person who seemed to be the leader of the goblin group. Charlus looked at that person.

[Goblin General (Elite) Lvl 15]

Charlus’ eyes were fixed on the Elite tag the Goblin General had. Maybe it was to represent that he was going to be stronger than the normal Goblins. Charlus wanted to fight the Goblin and see but he knew that that would be suicide. Charlus was a several levels lower than all those goblins and he knew that he couldn’t defeat them.

Suddenly, he saw a notification.

__

__

Charlus immediately accepted the quest when he saw that there were no penalties. He didn’t know if he would be able to reach Lvl 10 in 10 days but he would try. 3000 Exp and a Runic Dagger sounded very tempting to Charlus.

Suddenly, Charlus heard a loud noise from ahead. He looked closely and saw the Goblin General was signaling the goblins to check the area where Charlus was.

Charlus cursed at himself for not being more careful. He picked up a nearby stone and threw it far right from him. This stone made enough noise to distract the goblins. All of them went to that area cautiously to see what made that sound.

Meanwhile, Charlus slowly backed away. The moment he got out of the bushes and saw a clear path, he made a run for it. He hoped that his speed was enough to lose the goblins who were after him.

The goblins were all half Charlus’ height, so their legs were also half the length of Charlus’. They couldn’t keep up with Charlus and Charlus easily escaped the area. He did not immediately leave the forest though.

According to the Quest, there were goblins lurking around. Charlus was confident that he would be able to take the goblins as they were the weakest creatures he had encountered. He was guessing that they were Lvl 7 or 8, so that they would give more Exp.

Charlus slowly walked around until he heard some movement. Charlus looked slowly and saw two goblins killing a deer.

The deer wasn’t that weak. It had headbutted one of the goblin and had left him incapacited. However, these goblins had daggers in their hands. They were able to wound the deer heavily and the blood slowly bled out.

The remaining goblin was cutting open the deer. Charlus saw that it was so engrossed with this work. he slowly crept behind it. He looked at it’s level before stabbing it in its back.

[Goblin Lvl 7]

[You have dealt 27 Damage]

Charlus quickly hit hard with his fist before the goblin could turn around.

[You have dealt 17 Damage]

[You have defeated a Goblin]

[70 Exp Awarded]

[You have received Common Weapon: Goblin Dagger]

Charlus went to the next goblin who was incapacitated.

[You have defeated a Goblin]

[70 Exp Awarded]

[You have received Common Weapon: Goblin Dagger]

Charlus wasn’t interested in these notifications. This was because he saw a more exciting notification.

[Sneak has levelled up]

[Sneak (Passive) Lvl 2]

[Movement makes 10% less noise]

[Stab has levelled up]

[Stab (Active) Lvl 2]

[Stabbing deals 150% Damage]

[Cooldown – 10 Seconds]

Charlus looked at the time. It was still 6 PM. He had brought his meals so he could stay for another 4-5 hours. Charlus smiled.

“Let’s look for some goblins.”
