Chapter 5: preparation and a bloody night.

After a silent walk back to the sleepy bear inn. Elena is in the middle of talking with Emil about our earlier conversation, while I was busy looking for their knife and Emil pepper powder in the  kitchen.

You see, most people in this town don’t really like spicy food so Emil had ton of those powder bag store away for a very long time.

I know where they were store, cause I accidentally drop a bag of those thing on the floor the other night, when I was looking for a midnight snack.

Let just say that there are lot of tears and a pair of really red and painfull butts when Elena found out about it in the morning.

I haven’t used my {inheritance} ability back then, so it really painfull with Elena strength and my sensitive butt, but now I think I have a good way to used those bad boy.

And I’m sure that Emil won’t mind if I take a few of them.

[ what are you gonna do with them ]

It’s just a simple trick Alice. I’m gonna throw them into those thing face or eyes, what else?.

[ Oh, that evil man. ]

I know right.

--( A few minutes later)--

And there, I found a cleaver knife, a kitchen knife that is roughly 25 centimeter long, enough to stap and slicing thing plus ten small bag of pepper powder.

Just remember their position and I will comeback for them tonight.

--( a serious conversation with Emil and Elena about been an adeventure and 10 hour later)--

Seriously, thirty minute of talking with Emil and Elena about my future and Emil look like he is about brust into tear any second, that guy really need to man up.

But it’s nightime and that means it’s time for me to go for a night of goblin hunting.

Silently walking down the stair to the kitchen while acctivating {stealth 5} just to make sure Emil and Elena doesn’t wake up.

I take all the stuffs that I had prepared in the mornin and put them into a small bag. since I haven’t learn any magic yet. This is going to be a good old hunting and kill with a knife one by one, like back in the old day.

Most of the village is a sleep at night beside a few town guard patroling around the wall.

But the wall have many blind spot that the guard can’t see. So when I make it out of the house, I imdedietly run to one of those blind spots and used my new {strength} stats, a single 4 meter high jump over a 3 meter tall wall and I’m out of the town.

This story is posted elsewhere by the author. Help them out by reading the authentic version.

Continue with my run into the wood, I make another high jump on to one of the tree branch. From then on, I jump from tree branch to tree branch to avoid being spot by those goblin I try to hunt and have a good advantage in height.

When you accept a mission there will be a arrow pointing in the direction where you suppose to go to complete the mission. And In this case is to the nearest goblin.

Even after 12 minute of constand jumping and I haven’t even feel any fatigue, these stats upgrade are really good.

Suddently the arrow started to point down.

I stop jumping, standing on one of the thicker branch, and Look at where the arrow was pointing, from between the bushes, I notice there was three green, little humanoid creature each one arm with a wooden club in their hand walking around lesurely withough any care in the world.

This is going to be the last mistake you three ever made.

Waiting for the right moment then I jump from where I were standing, directly toward where the last of the three was standing.

*crack*

A good chop from the cleaver to the skull, acompany with the sound of bone breaking and that thing will never see the light of day again.

Fast but steady I take out the other knife from the bag and stab the second one in the heart from behind making it an instant dead while the first one just about to turn around from the sound.

Seeing two of it comrade dead, it was shock but that quickly turn into rage as it started to run toward me with it club raise into the air.

Seeing that, I immedietly pull out the knife from the second goblin, and used my leg to sweep the running goblin off it feet.

Surprised by it sudent lost of balance, it fall into the dirt and before it got a chance to understand what happen I had already put the knife through it eye ball and into the brain, fast and efficient.

4 second, the whole thing only took 4 second to kill 3 goblin, all with critical hit and not a single drop of blood was spill on my pajama. Yes I’m wearing my pijama to go goblin hunting.

Pull out the cleaver and the knife from the two goblin body, I began to search their corpses, 16 copper coin from a small dirty bag on the first goblin, 2 copper coin from the second and nothing on the third one.

Putting all 18 coin into my bag as I begin the next hunt.

Since I have already test my speed, now is to test my brute strenght.

Striping naked in order to make sure my pijama won’t have a single blood stain on it by the end of the night or Elena will start asking question I don’t know how to answer.

With my right hand holding the cleaver and left hand holding the knife in a reverse grip.

I started to jump branch to branch following the arrow to the next victims.

3 minute later I found a pair of goblin this time. Took  out my pepper bag, aim and throw it with my left hand into the goblin on the left while I jump to the one on the right with the cleaver and

*crack*

Chop it head clean and flying from it neck. Blood is spraying this time, painting my little body red.

The other one is still try to rub the pepper off it eyes only to made it worse, repeating the process I chop of it head as well.

2 minute of searching with the result of one silver coin and 11 copper coin richer from the those two goblin, I resume my hunt, after 1 hour and an extra 10 minute break by a stream later.

I found a group of 5 goblin camping around a fire, three is sleeping and two is guarding, this is going to be a hard one.

Quickly thinking up a plane. With my left hand raise while holding a stick and right hand ready the cleaver.

I throw the stick to the bush on the other side of the camp. Opposite direction from where I was standing.

A noise was made and the two guard immedietly look at where if came from, far away from me.

I took the chance and  jump at them with my left hand reach and pulling the knife from the bag. With both hand arm with weapon, I throw the cleaver at one of the goblin midfligh while stab the other through the heart.

The cleaver hit the goblin but it still a live. And before I have a chance to finish it off, it scream.

The scream alert the 3 that was sleeping.

After ending the remaining guard and pull out the cleaver from it dead body.

I ready myself for some good fight with the last three.
