《Goblin Kingdom》The Hunt
Advertisement
This day was a particularly cloudy day, with almost no sunlight to be seen. It was indeed a dark day, but they didn't care. Alom readied his stone spear and led the goblins to the forest and they started their hunt.
The walk was calm and without much trouble, giving the nervous goblins a bit of time to calm down and focus on looking for prey. Hunting one beast per individual and letting the individual fight the prey would take too long, so they decided to look for a big group of prey.
3 hours later, the group found what looked like a wolf lair situated on a cave, so they had to make a detour. What they didn't know was that the wolves weren't there, they were coming back from the hunt!
On their way back, they met the 20 wolves, a fairly big pack, and the fight started. Alom quickly handled the leader wolf and sat on a safe place to watch how the goblins were going, but not interfering in the fight; After all, they had to experience death risk.
All goblins fought bravely, without retreating or fearing injuries, giving Alom a pleasant surprise.If it wasn't for Alom's training, at least half of them would have died but only 4 perished, while 10 were injured. Luckily, Laura had given him a good amount of herbs, which helped him heal the goblins in less than two hours.
'This will do it for their first hunt...time to go back' was what Alom tought, but when they started going back, a strong rain started to fall; It was so strong that Alom had never seen anything like it before, the skies seemed to be falling down, dirt became mud, and the land became hard to walk on.
These weren't good conditions to go back, so Alom decided to stay in the wolve's caves for shelter.

Entering the cave, he was surprised when he lit his torch, as at the end of the tunnel entrance, he could see a big room, six meters tall and fifty meters wide. It wasn't something that looked like it was made by humans.Instead, it was a natural cave.
In the middle of that room, there were 70 wolf cubs, sitting around an enormous blue rock, 4 meters tall and almost 3 wide, one Alom recognized to be some type of magical mineral. Surprisingly, aside from these cubs, 4 female wolves were licking the rock, absorbing its power with each lick.
Alom guessed these wolves had a high magical affinity and were absorbing the magical power in order to cultivate. Normally, wolves would not have a magical affinity, as they were low-level beasts; However, these females did, and their wolf cubs had light blue eyes instead of the common yellow ones, and white fur instead of gray fur, as well as a little magic power coming from them.
'Maybe it's because they have been fed with magical power?if that's the case, they have been here for quite a while. but if that is so, why the hell were the males normal wolves??' Alom asked himself. He wasn't as intelligent as Norgolin, so he would have to ask the goblin later.
The stupid goblins almost tried to attack the wolves, but Alom stopped them.He ordered them to sleep in the tunnel tonight, as to not disturb the females.
Alom waited for the wolves to sleep and sneaked in the room. He slowly walked toward the wolf cubs who were feeding on their mothers and crouched down. He caressed one of the cub's white fur lightly, which made it groan lightly.
'It is soft, but its skin is a little hard. It seems they are growing to have a strong leather, but still maintain its softness. As for its fur, it acts as protection from any weather.' He analyzed. Actually, he liked these cubs.

After that, he slowly walked to one of the cubs that weren't feeding on their mothers and slowly lifted its lips, just to reveal a set of sharp teeth and two little,but even sharper, fangs.
'These wolves are quite a rarity. High magical affinity, strong but soft leather and fur, and sharp teeth.If one were to grow and tame them...' Alom had hit the jackpot!Of course, he wouldn't just take them for himself, he would give them to the village.
However, there were two problems. Firstly, he needed to get rid of their mothers, as to tame them. That led to the next problem: If he killed the mothers, they would stop receiving their milk, and probably the milk had magical properties, making them grow properly. If he let the female wolves grow them, they wouldn't be tamed, but if he killed the females, they died.
The only option was to tame the females, but how to do so?using food at first was too shallow and risky, he would first need to dominate them in battle, and then use food to make them docile.
'So that's it then. I would prefer to stay here as it would take quite a bit of time to tame them, so I have to let Norgolin know.' Alom thought.
In the next morning, Alom ordered the goblins to return, reporting everything that happened, including that he would stay there indefinitely in order to tame the wolves.
When the goblins departed, carrying the wolf bodies, Alom readied his new stone spear, it was time to tame!
