"woosh!!".
The sound of the Goblin emerging from the slowly dissipating dust was the only thing that branched through the ears of the shielded Goblins.
He got to the shielded Goblins and thrust his tiny fist at one of the shield in his front. The force from the fist completely shattered the shield, and the Goblin behind the shield was not left unattended to as the wind pressure blew a hole right through his stomach.
All the shielded Goblins panicked as they all rushed themselves backwards, away from the Goblin who is no longer surrounded by vines coming out from his waist.
"woosh!!".
The Goblin with his speed once again, overwhelmed the Goblin hoards and starts taking them out one by one.
The Goblin continued his relentless streak of murdering the Goblin hoards, beheading, incapacitation then beheading, a stab to the heart, left to die of blood loss. The Goblin used all sorts of methods he could think of.
While the Goblin was swiftly eliminating the Goblin hoards and reducing their numbers, the Goblin king sat still on his throne, watching the scene while exuding an Aura of absolute dominance.
The expression laced on the face of the Goblin king would make one think, he really enjoys the scene of watching his armies die without struggling at the hands of the Goblin.
He had his support skill that could help boost the Goblin hoards strength, giving them a better chance against the Goblin, but he refused to use it on them.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThe Goblin alone had faced of against four of the Goblin king's best warrior, and he not only came out alive, he also killed all four of them.
Boosting the Goblin hoards strength while be of no use against someone like that, and is something the Goblin king considers as a waste of resources. What he would only be doing by giving them a boost is delaying the inevitable.
He would much rather have them entertain him by facing the Goblin with their own strength, than giving them a boost and then ending up providing the same results.
"alright, he should be finishing up soon".
The Goblin king said after he saw how drastically the numbers of his Goblin hoards have diminished.
"tch, tch. To think those are the kind of goblins recruited in the army?....."
"who is to blame when even their generals are just as weak as they are".
"sigh...., when I get back, I am going to have all the Goblinas lined up, and prepare to make as much number of goblins as I have lost".
"and this time, I will make sure to harden up on the new goblins born so they will never have to turn out to be a pain in the neck for me as the Goblins before me are".
He shakes his head, complaining about the uselessness of his armies while not expressing an hint of remorse over his loss but already contemplating on how to make even more of them.
"that took you longer than I expected".
The Goblin king said to the Goblin who had finished killing the Goblin hoards. Drenched in blood, and on their cold body, he walked his way up to the podium the Goblin king was.
"that's because I was being merciful to them by giving them a painless death unlike you who wouldn't hesitate to sacrifice them".
"so now we are pointing blames and who is more merciful?...., is that it?, coming from a man who never hesitated to slit off an head, and you call that a painless death?..."
"woosh".
The Goblin, wasn't going to just stand there and listen to the Goblin king yap on like they have been friends for decades.
He had closed the distance between himself and the Goblin king in half of the time one would use to take a breath in. With thorns produced out of his palm and pointing its way up the Goblin king's neck.
The only reason why the thorn had not stabbed through the Goblin king's neck is because of the hand of the Goblin king wrapped around the thorn, with two of his fingers stationed at the tip of the thorn, stopping it from getting any longer.
This exchange made it very clear to the Goblin just how fast the Goblin king really is. The minute the Goblin had taken his first step towards the Goblin king, he had raised his hand up immediately, trying to match the pace of the Goblin before he got to him.
The Goblin felt himself being toyed with by the Goblin king, because the Goblin king had not taken his speed too seriously.
Still, there was no call for panic as the Goblin had not given it is all in the stunt he pulled off. He was just trying to weigh out the Goblin king to know specifically what he is in for.
"now, now, I understand that you are in a hurry to have my head in your hands, but why don't you take it easy a little bit".
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"you just finished fighting with the Goblin army, though weak, I am sure you must have accumulated some fatigue in that encounter".
"take some time off, I am generous enough to give you any set amount you request for".
Talking to the Goblin whose head is only three breath away from him, with a tone that sounds very convincing and surprisingly caring.
The Goblin withdrew his thorn and retreated to the back, away from the Goblin king before giving him a reply.
"you know, if others were to hear you speak, they would think you actually do care for my well-being, especially with a tone like that".
"ho, and what makes you think I don't care".
"that's your business to find out, just never use a tone like that to address me, it is creepy. Now get up and fight, I am ready to face you".
"....."
"hahahahaha. An intriguing Goblin you are indeed. Countless Goblins who are ready to sacrifice themselves just so they can be blessed by my cold gaze, and then there is you..."
"really intriguing. This is exactly why I refused to kill you, and even now that you are still rebelling, I have no intention of killing you, but to capture you alive".
"sadly for you, your wish will not come to be as I will be taking your life in this very place".
The Goblin king giving the Goblin a static look that says, really, written all over his face.
He shakes his hand multiple times and stretched out his finger towards the Goblin while also shaking it before speaking.
"no, no, no, you won't. Or rather you can't, it's just not possible, not for you at least".
