《Greed》Chapter 4: Goblin Village

Advertisement

Expecting some good results from defeating the goblin, Kei began to check his new skills and job.

[Search skills: “Goblin Language”, “Devour”]

[Search job: “Spear User”]

{Goblin Language (beginner): Upon activating this skill, the user can speak fluently with goblins. Skill will become passive after initial activation.}

{Devour (beginner): This passive skill allows the user to devour the target. This skill can now be used with “Greed” for obtaining “Mimicry” and other jobs and skills from the target upon devouring them. The more the target is devoured, the more jobs and skills the individual can steal from them.}

{Spear User (intermediate): This skill allows the user to fight efficiently with spears. As the job evolves with experience, the user becomes more efficient and inflicts more damage when using spears.}

Kei was very satisfied with the results. He noticed that with “devour”, he could eat the corpse of someone he didn’t necessarily defeat and still gain some of their skills. He was also thrilled with his first new job.

(Finally! I can use a weapon. I’m still probably a noob, but who cares!? Anything’s better than a rat at this point.)

Seeing that he could now speak with goblins as well, he was hoping to find more of them. He also hoped to disguise himself in their group as the one he just killed using goblin mimicry.

(I need to find someone to talk to as soon as possible. The only way for me to exploit this world is if I know how it works.)

Noting this, he exited the cave in his newly attained goblin form. While carrying the spear for protection, he decided to follow the dead goblin’s footprints in anticipation of finding its original location. As it was getting dark, Kei began running.

(This goblin body is pissing me off. It feels like I have a wedgie every time I take a step forward.)

Along the way, he encountered a few rabbits and a snake. In a rush, he avoided any encounters. He kept a mental note of the monsters he’s come across up until this point. Seeing many large trees and bushes, he assumed he was in some sort of forest. As he was inching closer and closer to the end of the trail, Kei began hearing some voices.

Goblin 1: [Man, I wish I was a hobgoblin already. That blonde chick in the storage room, she’s got a sweet ass!]

Goblin 2: [Shut the fuck up. That bitch is mine. You’re so weak that I bet you won’t even become a hobgoblin in your lifetime.]

Kei was baffled at the contents of the conversation. However, he could care less about that. What lay in front of him was even more surprising. There were small wooden sheds all around him and multiple goblins walking to and from them.

(A goblin village!? This is going to be fun. I can’t wait to rule over them.)

Walking past the few trees in his way, Kei entered the village with caution.
