After I killed the 40th dog I finally had enough leather and I even leveled up. I started to look for the medicine ingredients. Martha said that there should be some near the forest and that I should be careful because there are stronger monsters in the forest.
When I reached the forest I spot one of the ingredients a yellow leaf and proceeded to pick it up.
Walking in the forest for a few minutes I’ve already collected half of the needed ingredients, but since there doesn’t seem to be more in the outer part I went deeper in the forest.
While walking for a few minutes I spot a human like shadow, moving closer I find an ugly green child. This child had a head twice as big as normal children with tiny fangs protruding on its lower jaw, it was wearing a rag around its groin and was carrying a large knife. While watching it I figured that this thing should be a goblin and suddenly a blue screen came out
Congratulations you have learned a new skill

After seeing that I immediately looked at the goblin and said “inspect”. After saying that a status screen appeared in front of me
Lesser Goblin lvl 3Weakest of their kind, this goblins are at the bottom of the foodchainHP: 500/500
Seeing the status I decide to sneack up on it. Getting behind the goblin I held both my weapons in a reverse grip then stabbed the goblins back.
Critical Backstab x5 damage delt

I then looked at the goblins hp which was 312/500 it seems that my first attack dealt a number on him.
After getting hit the goblin steadied itself getting ready for battle. Seeing that I attacked the goblin then raised it knife and tried to chop me, but I saw it coming and evaded the attack. The goblin kept attacking but it was full of openings and
I immediately stabbed my sword at its armpits then slashed its legs with my knife thinking I could maim it but I had no such luck.
After a minute of dodging, slashing, and stabbing the goblin finally went down and dropped a couple of copper coins picking them up I resumed my journey of finding the ingredients for Martha.
After my first encounter with a goblin, I met 20 more lesser goblins and killed them and leveling up in the process. After walking and killing for an hour I finally found all the ingredients and then I headed back to the village to complete my quest.
Going back I first visited the grumpy old man and gave him the fangs.
“Here old man I got your dog teeth”
“What took ya so long brat? Ya went sightseeing or somthin?”
“I had other errand to run old man”
“Is that so alright here’s your hard earned coins”

“Alright I’ll try to find the missing people and bring them back safely”
“I’m countin on ya brat”
After talking to the chief I then went to Martha’s shop to receive a reward. Talking to Martha for a bit I gave her the
ingredients and completed the quest, then I asked her for another quest.
“Martha do you need more help?”
“Yes, but its still to dangerous for you deary come back when you’re a bit stronger ok?”
“Ok, then can I buy some potions?”
“Of course deary and don’t forget I’ll give you a discounts so buy lots of potions”
“Thanks”
After buying 5 silvers worth of potions I say goodbye to Martha and head towards the tailor’s shop to finish my quest.
When I finished the quest and got my reward I asked him for a new quest and he gave me one.

After accepting the quest he said that the wolves are usually found near the mines which is lucky that I don’t have to go to another place to hunt them. Finishing our conversation I said my goodbye to the hunter and headed to the blacksmith to repair my weapons and get a quest if possible.
Going in the smithy I see the smith in the counter thinking about something.
“Heloooo”
“WHA!? what the oh its you what do you want knife ear”
“I want my weapons to be repaired”
“Alright give em to me I’ll be done in a minute”
I then gave the blacksmith my sword and knife. After a minute he gave them to me and I paid a 50 copper fee, then I asked the smithy.
“Do you need any help in something?”
“I need someone to go in the mines for me”
“I’m going in the mines. The chief tasked me of finding the missing miners”
“OH! then I need you to find my son I asked him a few days ago to collect some ore from the mine but he never came

After talking to the smithy I got my things ready and headed out to the mines. On the way I killed a few dogs, and when I
was getting near the mine I saw a wolf and tried to inspect it.
Wolf lvl 5A normal wolf that hunt in packsHP: 800/800
While looking at its stat the wolf noticed me and started to growl while running to my direction. When it got close enough it lunged at me but I dodge and pull out my weapons from there sheaths.
We fought for 3 minutes and it finally died I received no damage. I noticed that the wolves are twice as fast as the dogs. After 20 minutes I’ve killed around 10 wolves and leveled up.
