《Goblin Kingdom》Reunion(part 2)
Advertisement
Proceeding to the next matter, all of them hesitated for a while, trying to search their memories for any ideas. For some minutes, they were silent. Laura was the first to break the quiet.
''Actually, I've been thinking... We are advancing quite the bit with the magic seeds... my suggestion is that we divide ourselves into two camps: military and science. As the population isn't a problem with the high fertility rate of the goblins, we could leave 20 to 30 goblins on building the wall/helping Potin make some weapons, as well as some goblins for magic seeds cultivation. The rest of our men will be focused on either training military, or developing science; That way, we won't have to hunt all day, even though it would take a great effort to change the goblin's hunting culture. At least that's how I think it could work'' Laura explained.
''That's a good idea indeed, Laura. But there are some points we can analyze on your suggestion. First, the scientific part; We can't focus on such a subjective concept as just 'developing science'! we need a specific area to work on, otherwise, it would be just wasting time and effort. Second, you've already mentioned; It would be very hard to change the goblin's culture of hunting! for them, hunting is what makes them useful and powerful, it is the only deep concept they have. We need to at least give them a way to prove themselves.'' Norgolin replied.
Potin immediately suggested ''Of course, I agree we can't leave the scientific subject as it is, but with that one, I can help a little. Actually, I've been thinking about some ways of using minerals, such as Iron. I didn't have the time to learn it from the humans back at our camp, but I've got quite the interest on melting and transforming metal. We can use some extra hands on this part; But about the culture of the goblins, I admit I'm not versed in that part.''

Laura took the initiative to talk again '' With that settled, on the way here I've found some extra herbs previously unknown to me, I would like some help at studying them too.''
Just as Norgolin was about to say something, Alom cut him. '' As for the military and hunting, I can help as well. We can make some type of fighting scheme with a hierarchy based on the best fighters, to keep them entertained. As for their training, I can do it too.''
Norgolin was very happy to see them all eager to help; '' Good, very good! now we just need to put everything in order, reproduce and start our projects. For the moment, I would like to keep Potin leading them, while they help on building the wall. Any objections?''
After some silence, Norgolin took it to be a confirmation.
Right at that moment, Diana spoke ''What about me? I'm feeling quite lonely here'' As she said that, she gave a side look to Norgolin, which everyone saw and laughed a little.
''For now, you can take help me to cultivate my Mana, as well as train your magic, but we don't have a special task for you now. Take it as an early vacation'' Norgolin explained.
Diana showed a cute look while puffing her cheeks and looking angry, but quickly accepted Norgolin's request.
After all these matters were concluded, Norgolin put an end to the meeting and actually went to help some of the goblins cut down trees. Even though his nature was to be thirsty for blood, he still needed to rest and cool down his head sometimes and nothing was better than doing some labor work while admiring nature.
Each time his axe hit a tree, it would make a small cut on it. But he actually ended up upset because it was taking too long, so he started hitting with all his strength. Five minutes later he was tired and his arm hurt, but the result wasn't as good as he thought it would be.

'Fu...wait, What am I doing? It must be the stress from all those fights and tension... I keep hitting the tree with all my strength hoping for a different result! ' In truth, he found this information quite interesting, as it served for the way he fought as well.Almost everytime he fought, Norgolin ended up beaten and saved by the occasion.First was the fight with Carlin, now it was Don. Norgolin had never won a fair fight without having to rely on pure luck!
Having realized that, our protagonist started to hit the wood again, But this time, every hit was carefully thought about, from beginning till the end. Concerning strength, Norgolin started using the weakest blow possible and kept on increasing until he found out a strength which was both efficient and economic. He spent hours taking down the same tree, but when the tree fell, a perfect circle was formed on top of the trunk. He had just succeeded! On the following two days, this became a part of his routine. Wake up, have breakfast, cut some trees, check on the village's progress, and so on.
Our dear village slowly started to take form, day after day. Reproduction was fast as always and as Laura took care of the food problem creating Mana seeds with Norgolin's help, they didn't need to care about food shortages.
Some days later, on a sunny and beautiful day, Alom had lined up a big group of goblins, these were the first batch of villagers! As they had already received basic fighting training, it was time for some hunting,as the hunting practice was still as essential as a coliseum to forge good fighters.Another reason for Alom to do this,was because they still didn't have their little fighting building, because it required a lot of labor and time to be built.
