《The Bad Guy Always Wins》Chapter 10: Goblins?
Advertisement
We finally make it to the bustling city! As we’re walking towards the the busiest section of the city, I start to talk to ask the question that’s been on my mind. Something that made sense at first but as I started to think about it more, it made less sense.
“Hey Luna, Solar, I’ve been thinking about something. Luna, you said you’re over 300 years old, right?”
“Y-You still remember that! You can just forget that little bit of information!” she yells.
“Well, even though I don’t know what age you are Solar, I know you’re probably over 100.” I say as he nods.
“Well here’s my question. Why were you so weak when I met you. I just noticed but your age doesn't match your levels.” I say. Luna places a hand on my shoulder, stopping our walk.
“Well, you see, it’s kind of embarrassing to say but once I got strong enough and my pack got big enough, there was really no need for me to fight, you know? Sure I left the forest sometimes but I couldn’t risk fighting with humans. What if I got overpowered and died? What would my pack do without me?”
“I, myself, fought a couple of humans, but honestly, not a lot. Like she said though, once our pack was big enough, we didn’t really need to fight.”
“Then why did you fight me?” I ask confused.
“Well, I don’t know really. My pack decided that you had the right to fight me. I don’t know why because usually they just gang up on an enemy. I guess...they were ready to replace me.” She says, getting slightly depressed.
I look at Luna and I see tears in her eyes. I can see how she thinks that, and honestly, it’s probably true. She hasn’t been doing anything for years and has just been sitting there. They probably wanted and a new strong leader who would actually help and participate. I hug Luna.

“It’s different now. You're more active. You participate more. You’re stronger. You are not the lazy alpha you once were, and you have me now.” I say as I see a single tear fall.
“Thank you Master.” she says while hugging me back. I hear and ignore Solars growl as I let her go.
“Speaking of the ‘Master’ thing, why did you give me your full obedience so early. Solar still hasn’t even thought about giving me his full loyalty. That’s why your eye color changed into purple, right? Because you’ve given me your full loyalty. I would think with your age comes arrogance and it would take a lot more than just defeating you to get your obedience.”
“Well I was tired of being in charge anyway. I lost the spark and became lazy. I gave you my loyalty because I thought you could make us better as a pack...while making me better also.” She replies. We leave that conversation, saving it for another time.
We keep walking until we walk into the market district. We ask the nearest merchant if he’s having any problems with monsters in the area but he says not really. There is a little trouble but it’s only with some goblins. There aren’t really any goblins in my forest, so I’ve never seen one; but I’m sure I’m stronger than one. I decide to keep asking around but everyone doesn’t really have any problems except the goblins. Actually, although the goblins are the only problem, they are a big problem. One merchant had his daughter raped by a goblin one day and within two weeks, she had four goblin kids. I asked him what happened to the kids, but he told me that they weren’t kids, they were monsters, and that he didn’t want to talk about it. I left that merchant quickly. I could see he didn’t like talking about the goblins, and me asking questions about them was starting to make the man angry.

I head towards this town’s forest. Most towns have one. It’s like a tradition; so we don’t disconnect with nature. From the reports I’ve gathered, these goblins are a real nuisance. Rape, stealing, killing, and kidnapping. I’ll be doing this village a real favor by taking care of them. Especially since the guards haven’t took care of them yet. It’s probably either because they are too many of them, or they're stronger than I first thought. Worst case scenario, both. As we finally make it to the forest and start to walk in, I give Luna and Solar their orders.
“If these goblins aren’t a higher level than me I want you two to handle them. I don’t care if they are only one level less, I want you to handle it. Understand?” I command, trying to make my point about them getting stronger clear. They both nod, with serious expressions on their face. They promised me that they will get stronger, and I’m planning on making them own up to that promise. They will either earn their spot as generals of my army and get stronger, or they will do what all mortals eventually end up doing and Die.

Memoirs of an old traveler:First Rebirth
If life gives you lemons, you make lemonade. Life sometimes gives you handouts and sometimes not, how would you take control of your life or would you let yourself be adrift on the sea. This is my story of rebirth, the start of a journey between the worlds. Will you take heart from the lessons I have learned or will you take without giving and continue the cycle? ___________________________________ A story with my take on reincarnation, expect somewhat of a more serious writing style but still a bit casual. I like to story build, to craft a universe, so don't expect quick action. Can be a bit of a heavy info read at times so if you don't like that best steer away. Chapters are expected to be at least 1 a week perhaps 2 a week depending on response and how much of an inspiration I get. Credits to multiple authors(too many to count/remember) of both web/light novels and the authors here on RRL for inspiration.
