Vol. 1 Ch 3.2

Part 2.

After traveling for three hours Crain finally reached the lair of the goblins. The lair of the goblin is inside a eerie cave. Inside the eerie cave it's so dark as moonless night but looking carefully inside there are some torches can be seen far away. There are also some foot steps coupled by some quibbling of the goblins.

' should rest first before going in.. '

Learning his lesson against the wolfs earlier, he didn't rashly entered the lair to battle it out with an army of goblin. He decided to rest for the time being inside the forest near the entrance of the cave to watch for any goblins if they decided to scout.

Sitting in the bank of tree, he rested his head in it's trunk and looked at the sky. The sky is already bright while the sun is above his head, since yesterday he only had 3 hours of rest since an army of wolf attacked him before he can even sleep. Deciding to rest for a little he took a nap but also widen his senses to avoid any ambushes around.

*****

'urghhh..'

Crain groaned as his conscious floated in his mind. Even if he wanted to move his body he can't, all he can do is wait for something to happen since something like this happened before.

<< ' help us. ' ' avenge us' 'help my mother.' 'save my daughter.' ' please help my friend.' kill those monsters.' >>

Inside his head he was bombered by many voices from old to young woman. All the voice sounded in pain, wretched, and in despair.

" what are you. "

Crain spoke and tried to start a conversation at the voices that continued to plead in his mind but they didn't answer instead their voices become more desperate and loud.

<< 'he can hear us.' 'he can hear me' he can save us.' ' he can help us.' ' he can avenge me.' >>

"stoppppppppppp don't simultaneously speak in my mind. "

He shouted and all the voices fell in silence but one voice spoke, it sounded so young maybe a small girl.

' please help our companions that were still locked in the chamber of goblins. '

A little child appeared, her age ranged from 9 or 10 but the look in her face is far from her age. She looked in pain as if she were tortured with many wounds and scratches in her petite body. As the little girl give off a feint smile white light blinded him and he woke up.

As Crain opened his eyes many notifications poped up before him. Reading all the notification he got angry when he saw the quest about the women. Crain isn't a righteous person he just can't ignore any inhumane actions before him.

Waving his hand to close all the windows, He pushed the trunk of the tree and got up. Looking in the sky he noticed that the sun is almost at the horizon. Before deciding for his actions he summoned some wolf meats that he cooked earlier in his and ate it as he thought what he should do.

After eating, the is sun already settled in the west and the moonless sky grew dark. He walked near the entrance of the cave that were covered with some boulders to execute the plan he made earlier.

Using his newly created skill *illusion body* he created a four copy of himself. He controlled his copies and made them scout inside the cave. After the illusions walked for a minute he made them sneak around the stones inside the cave to avoid being noticed.

Crain closed his eyes as he moved his clones inside the cave. He made them sneak around and saw many goblins, there are many goblins inside, from name goblins to normal goblins, there are also some hobgoblins and named hobo goblins. Goblins are at level 40 while the named goblins are higher for five levels, the hobgoblins on the other hand is level 50 and the named ones are 55 to 60.

Scanning around the cave, he saw a big door at the end of the cave it has a strange patterns with a red orb at the middle, the door looked like some boss room but since the goblins avoided it he decided that maybe that door is some sort sealed door.

Before he reached the end of the cave he saw a two crossroads. The first one is near the entrance and the second is at the end of the cave. Dividing his clones he made them go to four different roads without being noticed, he scanned all the roads. The first two near the entrance is the storage of foods at the left and at the right is where the goblins rested, at the second cross road, the right side is some sort of mining cave with many equipment stored and at the left side he didn't finish scanning it since there are many goblins guarding a iron cell in there.

In each road there are 25 goblins around and at each end of those roads there still many goblins either resting,eating, guarding or playing around, near the entrance there are also some goblins scouting around in group of five.

After he finished his scouting he sat down and thought for a while.

' it looks like they imprisoned all the women in the left road at the second crossroad. There are also many goblins, maybe around two hundred... '

Pondering for a bit he decided to start his plan.

He made all of his clone run and let the goblins notice it.

" kah, human, there's a human inside, kill him. "

" don't let the human get away, kill him. "

The goblins didn't question if how did he manage to enter since their intelligence is really low. He manage to lure all the goblins and he decided to made his clones run at the center.

All the goblins meet at center and they yelled after they saw his clones and chase it. After some chase the goblins are now near the entrance. Their numbers nearly exceeded 200 as they rally behind his clones. All of them are just some normal goblin, named goblin and some hobgoblin mixed.

While he made the clones lure the goblins he also sneaked inside and hide behind the boulders near the entrance. When he heard the footsteps of the goblins he closed his eye to see and concentrated in his senses. When the distance is at 20m before him he made his clones disappear.

" I WILL AVENGE MY BRETHREN THAT YOU KILLED MONSTERS. "

This time he used his newly combined skill * Voice of terror* to frighten the goblins. He made his voice as scary as possible by talking in low pitch and ghostly coupled with a hoarse tone. The goblins squeaked as some of them stepped back, run or hide.

" ghost, ghost... that human earlier is ghost. "

" no, ghost doesn't exist.... "

" but----ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh... "

The goblins were in panic as they argued with each other, but this is not Crain's plan. He used another of his newly created skill * Mind body* and made a perfect clone of himself, his clothes were replicated but since his weapon is an artifact it didn't manage to replicate it. He made his clone appear at the entrance with his *Pressure* skill activated.

The goblin saw the figure of his clone and they immediately stopped panicking and picked their weapon taking a stance. Crain of the other hand closed his eye to completely control his clone as use his voice of terror skill again.

" I SHALL NOW AVENGE MY BRETHREN MONSTERS. "

He made his clone run at the army of goblins as it used all of Crain's skill, even the skills are weakened to 30% and it's stats are decreased to 30% his clone is still quite strong. He controlled his clone and attacked the army of goblins and managed to kill 3 of them before he fall.

When his clone fall and disintegrate he spoke again using his skill.

" HAHAHAHAHA, I WON'T DIE, MARK MY WORD MONSTER, I WONT DIE I WILL COME BACK AGAIN..HAHAHAHA"

His laughter echoed inside the cave before he sneaked out to prepare again.

Crain looked at the moonless night as he reviewed what happened earlier in his mind and released a grim as he imagined what more will happen.

' the night is still young. let's enjoy the long night, goblins. '

He grimed and released a sadistic smile as his eye glittered in silver in the darkness like a demon using his new skill *Sixth sense* since he don't have a night vision and relied only to his senses.

Since he were summoned in this world some of his personalities were unlocked or rather awakened. He himself didn't even notice it that he has a sadistic side.

After another hour passed he again entered the cave and used his skill *illusion body* to lure the goblins. This time the goblins are more vigilant, the hobgoblins are the one who roamed around the entrance. He made his clones sneak again and entered the roads. Just like last-time he lured them all near the entrance and made his clones disappear.

" MONSTERS, I HAVE COME BACK TO DRAG YOU ALL WITH ME TO HELL....AHAHAHAHA. "

A case of literary theft: this tale is not rightfully on Amazon; if you see it, report the violation.

Using his skill he repeated the same action and created a complete clone of himself and made it attack the goblins head on. He managed to kill five this time before falling and disintegrated.

" AHAHAHA, THIS IS NOT THE END.....AHAHAHA. "

He really got into his action an acted like some villain as he enjoyed the reaction of the goblins.

He repeated the same tactic for the whole night till the sun risen at the east. In that ten hours he managed to kill 48 goblin and named goblin, and 15 hobgoblin and named hobgoblin. There are still many of them remaining he only managed to decrease them by fourth of their original number.

When the sun risen he entered the forest to rest after eating since he decided to only attack at night where they can't find him. He also want to instill a fear to the goblins and make them regret being born. His plan were made like that since he want to avenge the poor souls of women they kidnapped and killed.

After the day changed to night, the new moon appeared in the sky like a eye slitted looking at the ground. Near the entrance of the cave Crain sneaked in and executed his plan. Just like yesterday, he repeated his action the whole night. Some of the goblins were so afraid and tried to escape but he hunted them all leaving nothing behind as he made his clone drag them back to the entrance of the cave to instill more fear and made them realize that this cave will be their tomb.

His action continued for two days and only small number of hobgoblins remained. This time he decided to rescue all the women in the cell and complete his quest.

He entered the cave silently and assassinated all the scouts until he reached the second crossroad. He took the left road and threaded his way to the cell. There are still some hobgoblins guarding the cell, but before they can even squeak he sliced their head and killed them.

He searched the body of the hobgoblin and found the keys. He unlocked the iron cell and entered. There is still another door inside and some named hobgoblins guarding it. Just like last time he killed them without any hesitation and searched their body for the key.

==========================================================================

Dark part here

==========================================================================

After finding the key he opened the door and saw many females inside. They were either laying lifeless in the ground or groaning in pain. He immediately entered and helped them as he pressed the pressure points of some girls to relieve their pain.

Looking at girls he showed a pained look as he imagined what things have they gone through with those goblins. After helping them he walked out of the chamber to get some foods in the storage of the goblins to fed them and let them regain some of their strength.

After some minute passed he return and saw the women crying and hugging themselves after they saw Crain, they all eyed him in either hatred or fear.

Crain looked at them without showing any pity and just stared them while staying silent, since pitying them will only make them feel more despair.

" i have come to help you, i'm really sory that i came late. "

He spoke straightforward because he deemed it to be the best solution for now since this girls don't want to trust others now. He dropped all the meats, bread and some water can he claimed, he also gathered the woods in the weapons of the goblins and left them with a torch in the chamber to let the girls do what they want. The girls didn't even thank nor talk to him but he just dismissed it since all of them gone through a inhumane torture.

After doing all the necessary things he left the chamber and decided to explore the cave.................

=============Dark Part=======================

Spoiler :

Unlocking the door and opening it, his eye gleamed in silver as his rage maxed out. Inside the chamber many women aged from youth to old there are even some children in there, they are either laying in the ground without any clothes, wretched as they groaned in pain, chained in the wall, roped in the ceiling, and tortured to death.

" keeeeuuk, human kill him, kill him. "

Some hobgoblins are still inside doing something inhumane as they touched the girls and made them cry, some women even have lifeless eyes and given up in struggling as they were wretched. Seeing all of this Crain walked inside with a hollow eyes, his face is as cold as ice, his fist were bleeding with his clench, and his mouth also bled as he bit his lips.

" MONSTERS, YOU HAVE DONE SOMETHING YOU WILL REGRET. "

He used his skill and spoke coldly and made his eye gleam in cold silver as it slitted like a devil's eye coupled with immense pressure he released. The hobgoblins either stepped back in fear or frozen in their spot.

The chamber fell silent as Crain continued to walk, his every step made the hobgoblins tremble, with his every move made the hobgoblin cower, and with every breath he take made the goblin shiver.

" I WILL ALL LET YOU TASTE YOUR OWN MEDICINE, MONSTERS!!!!!! "

He unpockted the devourer and made it transform into a katar. The hobgoblins stood up frozen in fear as Crain created another copy of himself and left it at the entrance to guard it if some hobgoblins decided to escape.

He rushed forward and reached the first hobgoblin, he just cut it's legs and made it crawl in the ground as he headed to the other hobgoblins and do the same thing. After some minute passed all the hobgoblins are either crawling in the floor or groaning in pain. Crain dragged them all in one corner and commanded his clone to guard them and don't let them escape.

" Villagers you are now safe, i have dealt all the goblins and all of you are now free to go home. "

Crain spoke as warmly as he could possible do to the girls as they just looked at him with lifeless eyes or eyes of despair.

" why.... "

One girl spoke and soon some followed it.

" why did you come so late.... "

" why even bother to save us this late... "

" why did we have to suffer like this... "

the women bombered him in question while all he can do is look at them without any pity nor any warmth, that's all he can do now since pitying them will only deepen their despair. He remained silent as he received all of their complain.

" i------i rather die than to go home now. "

" i would rather die than to conceive a monster child. "

" i would rather die than shame my family. "

" i would rather die than-----"

" die? "

Crain couldn't hold any longer and shouted.

" DIE? YOU WOULD RATHER DIE THAN LIVE IN SHAME? THAT'S JUST A SELFISH THINKING, WHAT DO YOU THINK WILL THE ONE YOU LEAVED WOULD FEEL, WHAT DO YOU THINK THE ONE WHO WISHED FOR YOUR SAFETY WOULD FEEL, IF YOU REALLY WANT TO DIE THEN DIE AFTER GOING HOME AND AT LEAST BID A FAREWELL TO YOUR FAMILY...... LIVE IN SHAME AND SOMEDAY RECLAIM YOUR HONOR RATHER THAN DIE HERE IN SHAME...FOOLS.!! "

*trring*

due to your action you have created a new skill.

[Active]Commanding Voice[Beginner Lv. 1 0%]Your voice will resound with authority and your command will have more intensity in it. Peoples will either revere you in awe or fear you.

[250 mp]

Crain just waved his hand to close the window as he drew near the girls and dropped some weapons that he picked up with the goblins.

" FIRST, KILL THOSE HOBGOBLINS THAT DEFILED YOU AND RECLAIM EVEN A BIT OF YOUR HONOR. "

The Girls looked at him in fear or even in awe while having a second thought about what he said. One young girl reached her hand and picked a dagger as she dragged her petite body to the hobgoblins. As the other women saw the child they also picked up some weapons and walked toward the groaning goblins. The child stabbed the goblin as she sobbed releasing all her pain and reclaiming her honor as he stabbed the goblins.

Crain watched the girls as they tortured the goblins and finally died.

" now does any of you still want to die? if so tell me and i will personally send you to hell. And those who want to live and conceiving a child come here and i will make it that you wont bore any. "

No one complained anymore and some women with big bellies drew near him. Using his finger as a substitute for a needle he used a acupuncture that he learned with Sun Wu Kong and pressed some pressure points of their body. The women groaned in pain at first till they fall and lays down in the ground while some blood flooded in their tights.

After ah hour passed Crain decided to gather the foods that the goblin left to feed the girls and regain some of their strength. The one who he helped earlier are still in pain but their belly now are small like they didn't even become pregnant.

Crain gathered some woods from the weapons of the goblins and ignited it using a torch in the side to cook the meats he claimed in the food storage. After he cooked he gave the women the food and let them rest as he decided to explore the cave for now to let them take in the reality....
