Hey guys, last chapter for today, I hope you enjoy my story!

Chapter 3
They were scouts so I guessed that the goblin nest or base was farther up ahead. Most likely inside the cave. One of them actually dropped a pair of tattered leather shoulders. Sadly, they gave no stat points or anything when I equipped them which meant they were just for decoration.
Either way, I looked pretty strong with them. But with my iron pole, Black helmet, white shirt, black trousers and tattered leather shoulders, I had to say, it looked rather random. I’ve heard that breaking the meta is a good thing. But you know what they say, never listen to such things, it might get you into serious trouble.
As I went inside the cave, I was met with a blue box that said that it was a dungeon. It also asked if I wanted to enter the dungeon. Nah, you know. I don’t want to. I think I’ll just head home now. Of course I want you stupid piece of shit game. Sorry, maybe I need to go and learn to control my anger when I get home. Maybe charlie harper?
The cave was rather dark. I had no light or anything to see where I walked. What If I walked into one of those green pests? And also, did they have night vision? Damn, what a convenient skill. Was it possible to get it somehow? Maybe if I became a rogue or something?
By the way, I haven’t seen anything about classes. There hasn’t been any leakage of information of the game on the web either. Seems like the security of the game’s information is bullet-proof.
What class would I choose? Most likely a warrior or something. I’ve fought as ranged or spell caster too many times now. Time to fight in close quarter. Since I look like twenty, let’s use that youth. Ahh, the wonderful youth!
Suddenly, I hear disgusting sounds. Or voices that is. I think they were goblins who spoke to each other. They sounded like pigs, but with a higher tone. Like mouses with dark tone. Something in between.
I saw light coming toward me. It was a goblin with a torch. Without him being able to react, I lunge at him with my iron pole. As he sees me, he becomes terrified. I hit him in the arm and make him drop the torch on the ground. I mean, I wouldn’t want him to set my awesome and expensive clothes ablaze now would I?

My hits were getting stronger. I took away a big chunk of its health, about half of its health. Before it could counter attack, I made a big overhead swing, my favourite swing, and made it fall cold on the ground.
I looted nothing of value, so I continued forward. Soon level four, only about five percent. Another level 4 goblin would suffice. I hoped there was higher leveled goblins inside, it would make me level faster since I took care of these level 4s really really quickly.
After a while of traversing on the uneven cave ground or floor, whatever you want to call it, i arrived to a big hall. Naturally, I hid to not get discovered.
Inside, I could see numerous of goblins eating together. The green pests laughed and grunted like high pitched pigs. Disgusting. Farther away, in a stone throne, I could see a bigger goblin of maybe 2 meters, like a full grown human. A bit bigger than normal though. The other goblins were of level 5 and the bigger one in level 8.
Seems like that was the boss. Now how should I draw them out? I could make some noise outside which would draw out a few. But it could risk that very many came. Well, looks like I got no other choice.
I went a bit farther away and used my hard iron rod to smash into the wall. "Auch!" I felt the rebound come straight back into my arms. It hurts like hell. I forgot that even if it was a game, I still felt the pain as in real life. If you’ve ever tried to hit a thick wooden stick into a big tree or stone, you ought to know the feeling I feel right now.
Soon, I heard that a commotion rang out inside the cave hall and saw several shadows dash out. About five level 5 goblins stood before me, all armed with stone swords.

Eh, wasn’t this what they called: “Getting more than bargained for?” Crap, could I really beat all these goblins. I mean, one or two shouldn’t be a problem, but five? Jeez.
They charged at the same time and emitted war cries, disgusting high pitched grunts which echoed on the cave. I had to take care of these quickly, or it would alert the others in the cave.
*Pa*

I hit the first one who charged at me with the end of my stick, it fell down. But unfortunately, I couldn’t dodge every strike of the four that were directed of me. One of them hit my in the waist.

Holy shit, I have like zero stamina. That hit shaved of about one fifth of my health. I have to dodge or block a bit better.
Somehow, I saw a highlighted part on the goblin who was down on the ground . It was on the side of its air. By the eardrum. I hit the stick there with all my force
-67
A big number came forth. That was probably my sixth sense that guided me to the weakness of the goblin. I rejoiced that the goblin died. Only four more to deal with. Sadly, I wasn’t happy for long as two swords hit me, one in the shoulder and on in the arm.

Argh! I swung blindly in pain but hit nothing, I only made them temporarily retreat. The pain was unbearable. Compared to the rabbits, this hurt way more. I have no idea why.
I had a bit less than half of my life left, 48 hit points. It wouldn’t be enough even for a long shot. Should I run? No, it’s too dark and the torch i got from the level 4 goblin scout is only charred black now, finished.
tHe goblins charged again, I hit back. I made a Darth-vader style swing and held it with both sides, it made it a bit easier to defend myself. But it wasn’t long enough which made my reach a bit short.
But with the help of Darth-vader style I killed another one and leveled up to level 4 which replenished my health. I took care of the last ones with barely any health left afterward.
They dropped a belt, it looked rather old and worn-out but I inspected it.
WORN-OUT LEATHER BELTWAISTGREYITEM LEVEL: 1REQUIRED LEVEL: 1
Yup, i was correct. Friggin’ useless.
I waited until my health bar regained full luster, hundred percent, until I made more noise with my iron bar. I also didn’t forget to invest the stat points and skill points, 3 stat points to stamina and 1 skill point to sixth sense.
“Shit!” I swore out loud. How could I be so stupid. Why did I think the green pests as stupid small creatures. Well, they were stupid. I can’t refute to that. But they had a leader, the bigger goblin. Most likely, he commanded them to go out and take a look why his last warrior hadn’t come back and also to check out the sound I made.
Now,instead of five, which i had a really hard time handling, and would with certainty have died from if not for my level up, came ten goblin warrior armed with stone swords.
They swarmed me. I tried to use the Darth-vader style to both defend and attack. But sadly, i wasn’t some kind of martial artist in real-life nor a god in this game, so I succumbed to the continuous slashes and stabs.

I died.
Damn goblin, I’ll make you all pay! First, I’ll have to get better equipment or higher level. Maybe I’ll learn some kind of poisoning technique to make you weaker, I’ll ask old man Cai when I respawn.
