Chapter 1. Goblin 2
I remember the feeling of the moment of death. The horrific sensation of disconnection from the outside, of inability to move slightly from the heart.
But what is this?
[Fade]
[Goblin Lv 1]
[Strength – 7 HP – 9 MP – 5 Luck]
[Skill – Dark Heart, Predatory Lv1, Escape Lv1]
Before I died, the status quo that came to my mind was not like this. Human Lv 3. Terrible abilities. And no skills. I clearly remembered. Maybe if Faith hadn’t died and synchronized, she’d be a farmer.
But now I wasn’t a farmer, I wasn’t Lv 3, I wasn’t even human. It was a Goblin.Weak monsters often appear in games. The Goblin who receives the most frustrating treatment of Fantasy along with Slime.
“What the hell is this……. ”
My voice was the only voice I could remember. I was just talking to myself, but it sounded awkward. I thought about it for a while and realized why. It is because the vocal organs are different from humans.
I really became a Goblin. The arm raised in a dim field of view is uglier than that of a human, with thick leather and sharp nails.
It was complicated in my head. I didn’t know why I didn’t die and become a monster, what happened to Earth, and what I was going to do next.
But one thing’s for sure.
“I’m alive.”
I’m alive. I thought it was all over, but I survived. I was so happy about that.
I wanted to live. Even if I wasn’t human, I wanted to live to the end.
It was just then.
[Quest Occurred!]
[You are the weakest magic in the Great Dungeon ‘Black Palace’, Goblin. In order to survive, you have to eat something else. However, the only thing you can overlook is a Goblin who is your own kind. Hunt your own kind to prove that you deserve to live in a dungeon.]
[Goblin Hunt 0/1]
[Goblin Predatory 0/1]
“Huff!? ”
It was the same as when the Status window appeared before my eyes. The Status window was freely erased, and a handwritten window of unknown content appeared before my eyes.
“Quest or dungeon? Who the hell are you? ”
All the quests I know about were given when I played the game. But now, someone who knows everything about my situation is naming me Quest to do what I need to do.
I shouted aloud because I couldn’t overcome the disgust and fear of Smurfette, but I couldn’t hear the answer, and only my voice was in the cave…… Yes, it spread beyond the cave where I am now.
And then you hear the crumbling sound from over there.
I felt goosebumps on my neck. There was an enemy there that could not be won. It was instinctive.
‘This is no time to complain about the situation. ’
Suddenly, I was awakened by the horror of death. I thought, as soon as I heard the sound, I got out of the way.
I came back to life as a Goblin in a situation that requires death. Moreover right now I don’t have any information about where I am.
I didn’t know who was telling me what to do, but it didn’t help me at all to complain and be afraid about it. Peoples… I kill Goblins and consume them.
As long as there are no prey other than Goblins I can fight and win, that was a perfectly reasonable instruction.
“I’m hungry.”
After realizing it, there came an unavoidable hunger. I carved the quest into my head as loud as I could.
‘Kill and consume Goblins. All right, that’s it. ’
The window disappeared. In case I thought of the quest content, I remembered the window with the quest content in front of my eyes again. When I thought it was gone, it was gone.
‘Then…… Status! ’
Success. The strongest thought alone quantifies my abilities and reveals the status quo.
I shouted for joy and looked at what was written on it.
Fate was already dead, but the name of Fate was in the brackets next to my name. I had my doubts, but they didn’t help me survive here right now, so I pushed them aside.
Strength is the only thing that compares to health and magic to how high I am before I die. Since the quest told me that I was the weakest of them all, I was sure it wasn’t a high number.
Next, my most anticipated skill. Skill is a skill. Expertise, making things possible that we simply can’t think of. It is also the most important thing when playing RPG games.
I didn’t have any skills before I died, but now I have three skills.
Dark Heart, Predatory, Escape.
Skill details could not be predicted except for escaping. The moment I thought I didn’t know how powerful these skills were anymore, a window appeared in front of my eyes.
[Heart of Darkness]
[???]
[Predatory Lv 1]
[Any creature can eat anything. Restores HP by eating. Some toxicity can be ignored. Absorbs some of the ability of eaten items.]
[Escape Lv 1]
[It can consume Mana and escape at a rapid rate. Can only be used when fleeing from battle.]
Hard mode!
Then yes, even if I became a Goblin, I was bad. The most seemingly dark heart was coated with question marks, and eating seemed like a good skill, but it wasn’t a skill that increased my combat strength immediately.
Finally, when I ran away, I was even friendly with the description that it was only available when I was running away from the battle.
What do we do? Even if I meet the weakest Goblins, I’m going to die. ’
While looking at the skill description, a monster with a small body suddenly appeared just beyond the corner of the road.
If you look at the game and see that you are not covering your groin with a dirty cloth and have nothing, ‘that is definitely the weakest level 1 monster.’ Such a monster you can be sure of.
He was my fellow Goblin. Of course I was dressed like him.
“Waaaahhhh!”
“Kiiiiiiiiiiiy!”
I instinctively punched him with my fist. Am I always this aggressive? That can’t be right.
I grew up not wanting to do anything good. I couldn’t study or exercise. If I were an aggressive person, I would not have lived until I was twenty years old.
But now? As if you’ve lived so far, you’re punching mercilessly at the Goblin you just met.
Even Goblins thought they couldn’t win, but I was wrong. If you’re just as weak, the one who blows the first bread wins. My fist hurts, too, but the other Goblin doesn’t know if his fist is in the right place.
An opportunity. I desperately beat him with the thought of surviving. I punched him in the face and kicked him in the stomach with my foot. His fists and feet ache and ache, but he doesn’t stop.
“Queek! Queek! ”
The Goblin screams and falls to the ground. I ran as fast as I could before he got up and stepped on him. A few moments after you reach your feet, you crush a Goblin of the same stature.
This was not enough. I stepped on him without rest and looked around. I noticed a stone bigger than my fist.
“Queek, queek! ”
“Profit, die! Die!”
I grabbed a stone with both hands and smashed it on his head. The Goblin screams for death. The more he screams, the more nervous I get, and the harder I cut down the stone. You slashed the stone until the Goblin no longer makes a sound.
[You got EXP 10.]
[You got 1 Bronze.]
[Goblin Hunt 1/1]
After that window appeared on one side of my vision, I barely calmed down and stopped moving. My whole body trembled. I couldn’t hold the stone any longer, so I dropped it.
“Huff, puff… ”
Your breath is rough. Your heart beats harder than your breath. Looking at the Goblin’s corpse beneath me, I just realized that I killed him.
“Ugh…… ”
I didn’t eat anything, but something came up from inside. My insides were burning.
I realized at the same time. The reason I was able to attack him as soon as I saw a Goblin.
It’s because my heart was beating violently.
The dark heart made me move. It made me violent and poisoned my weak arms, allowing me to harm my enemies at all costs. As a result, my whole body is getting sore.
I was struggling because I didn’t have skills for combat, but I didn’t. This skill was the one that helped me in battle.
“Damn it.”
I duck my head, muttering at the last moment. At the end of my gaze, there was a Goblin corpse I thought would be dirtier than a cloth covering its groin.
“Still, it’s hard mode. ”
