Will of chaos

Chapter 25: Invasion part 2 – Attack

The next day I woke up at dawn to again arrive at the Goblin Cave before dawn and position myself for the attack.

First of all, I have to identify some things I forgot yesterday due to my altered emotional and mental state.

<[ Skills identification result:

“There is?” (me)

“(Looks like I got another crazy skill, are all Unique skills all that crazy?)” (me)

This ability seems to have very strong effects, it has both passive and active effects, and from what I could see I can control my Aura too, maybe the adventurers know something.

Now the skill [Mental Disturbance: 5] worries me, it has a good effect but it looks like it’s a skill for someone who’s going crazy.

My body reinforcement and intimidation skills do exactly what I expected.

Now let me see the technique system that was unlocked yesterday.

<[ Techniques:

[ Martial Art Fist of Chaos: 1 ]:

• [Explosive punch]

]>

I only have one technique, for now, I will have time to train others after I move my base to the cave, but this technique will be useful for today’s plan.

Now that I’ve checked everything I start making some preparations and then I’ll wake up Ibuki, as soon as she wakes up we eat something and head towards the cave, when we get to the forest I’m using [ Detect weak presence: 3 ] to dodge the monsters.

When we finally reach the cave, I hand the hammock to Ibuki and point to a tree branch that goes inside the camp walls.

“Go there, I kill old Goblin, you net on adult Goblins.” (me)

“Yes master, I gii understand.” (Ibuki)

Seeing that she understands I go to another tree and climb on top of it to a branch that goes inside too, yesterday I noticed that the Goblin mage sits here, on the big rock under the shade of this tree to teach the children.

I intend to wait for him to sit on the big rock in the shade of that tree and attack him by surprise killing him in one blow.

——–

After hours of waiting I could see the Goblins wake up and split into groups until finally, all the Goblins were out hunting, I waited probably over an hour to make sure they were all away and seeing that the Goblin mage was screaming at a Goblin child I prepare myself.

To make sure I kill him in one blow I will use my martial arts technique [Explosive Punch] to blow his head off.

I took advantage of the fact that the old Goblin was still distracted yelling at one of the children and I used [Magic Body Reinforcement: 1] on my two arms and prepared to use the [Explosive punch] on both arms at the same time, a punch will be for the old man Goblin and the other will be on the kids that are nearby.

When all my preparations were done I jumped off the branch punching the old Goblin’s head, but just as I was going to hit the target a transparent blue barrier appeared and when I hit it and the explosion happened it was destroyed but the old Goblin was still intact, without missing this opportunity I punch with the other hand that was already prepared for the technique and this time I hit his head blowing it up with a blow.

Ding!

<[ You gained 10 EXP from killing Goblin Mage ]>

When I fall to the ground in a bad position due to the two explosions I see that the children are in shock by the sudden event, but as soon as one of the children grabbed a stone and ran towards me the others did the same.

I quickly used my threads to wrap the kids and then I used [ Paralyzing Poison Secretion: 5 ] to immobilize all five kids and then I start looking for Ibuki and see she’s using her sword to pierce the two adult Goblins she’s trapped in the net that I poisoned earlier.

Ding!

<[ You gained 7 EXP for killing Goblins by party member ]>

“Ibuki come, kill them.” (me)

I waited until Ibuki killed the two adult Goblins and called her to kill the kids too, so she’s closer to evolution.

When she gets closer I can see a smile on her face, it looks like she is happy killing all the Goblins from her old family, she must hate them all a lot, when she got there she started the massacre of children, it’s sad to kill children and not I’ll make excuses that it’s okay for them to be monsters, but there was no way I could take care of them and I couldn’t release them in the forest as they can tell some other Goblin family about it, Ibuki already warned me that their family was not the only one in the forest. the forest was only the closest to the ruins.

Ding!

<[ You gained 13 EXP for killing Goblins by party member ]>

With everything ready I feel relieved but I go from hut to hut to see if no wounded Goblin is left behind to recover, and in the third hut I find a Goblin with a deep claw wound, he is already dead from blood loss, it seems that the other Goblins haven’t noticed that their mate is dead, otherwise he would have become food too.

After checking everything I’m in no hurry, I start sucking blood from the eight corpses so their scent doesn’t attract other monsters.

Ding! Ding! Ding!

There is?

Once again I was surprised, I seem to get titles from those I eat too, I’ll leave that to think later, Ibuki came back from the cave, it seems that while I was dragging the corpses she went to check if there were any more Goblins inside.

“Find more enemies?” (me)

“No master gii Zenos.” (Ibuki)

“Show cave.” (me)

I ask her to show me the cave and let’s go there, when I arrive I see that just like the rest of the camp is dirty and stinks, the stink inside is much worse than the one outside.

Ibuki points to a tunnel on the right after entering the cave, there is a door made of branches in the middle of the tunnel so I don’t know its size.

“Weapons and treasure gii conquered.” (Ibuki)

It looks like it’s the room they use to store the equipment, weapons, and other objects they stole from the adventurers, we kept walking and soon I could see another tunnel to the left this time, with the same branch door, Ibuki pointed there and said.

“Prisoners stay gii there.” (Ibuki)

So this is where they are, I hold myself back from going there, I have to continue, I need something before I go see them and I hope I can find it here.

We keep walking and once again I see a third tunnel which is also on the left, it has the same branch door, Ibuki points there and then forward into the cave.

“There to store gigi food.” (Ibuki)

“And there gii has no way out.” (Ibuki)

It looks like the cave ends a little further on.

I go towards the branch door of the third tunnel and enter, as soon as I enter I see flesh and bones and a lot of blood everywhere, it’s disgusting but I have to find something here.

I hold my mouth to keep from throwing up and recover from my nausea before telling Ibuki to watch the gate and let me know if other Goblins arrive early, even though I know they’ll take a while to get back, it doesn’t hurt to be careful.

As soon as Ibuki left to guard the gate I started looking at each corpse one by one, I did this for about thirty minutes before I found what I wanted.
