CHAPTER 3

How can I rescue her? I can't exactly just go from the front. How about the wall? It's not too high, maybe I can climb the wall using my former skill. But then I doubt my stamina. Damn it, let's do this!

First thing first. Vines. Really, long vines. The area like this should have a lot of it.

"Analyze". The area as far as my eyes could see, and it immediately showed various pop-ups. All those details keep on blinding my sight but there's nothing that is related.

Nothing! Shit, I don't have lots of time.

Wait!? What's that?"

"Analyze"

NAME VINER RANK ★☆☆☆☆ HP 15/15 MP 10/10 SKILL ACTIVE VINE WHIP

Shit! I don't want to meet a monster, but I need the vine. A perfect substitute.

Viner is a monster with soccer-size durian as a head. And thick vine like tentacles for support. Two of the tentacles are wrapping on the branch of the tree for the Viner to hang around. The rest are used as protection. Even with that, it's really weak. Back in the old world, when I was still playing the game, the world setting around the villages always says that even a child can kill the Viner.

","

With the knife, I quickly dispatch the "Durian" and cut the vines. Then I take several wood branches and smoothen it. Wood crafting Skill makes 30 minutes job done in under a minute. I then start to create an asterisk shape from six smoothen branches and ties the end of the vines to it.

[GRAPPLING HOOK CRAFTED].

"Perfect.", I muttered to myself.

I ran to the wall directly behind the huts. From my initial recon, there shouldn't be any goblin guarding or loitering around the area.

Several swings later, I finally managed to hook it to the wall. I tug it several times to check if it secures and proceed to climb.

After I reach the top of the wall, it has enough space for me to manoeuvre and pull the vines up. The reason why is I need to prepare it to rappel down. At this moment, my body was wasted. Tiredness start to catch up to me and my lack of stamina start to show itself

Creeping through the window. I saw it, a girl she was covered in blood spray.

Shit! I'm too late. Quickly I rushed to the girl and I saw a body of the smelly goblin trying to remove his loincloth but apparently, it died from a dagger stabbed directly into the chest.

Quick I turn to the girl to check if she alright, but everything she says is gibberish.

Maxed it!.

“I kill him.”

"Do you understand me?"

"Yes.". The reply from the girl small mouth is so weak, barely audible.

Dammit, she's weak. And young.

" Are you okay? tell me your name."

"Ah..ah. My name is Flora De Luca. I'm a Princess of Luwa Kingdom. Help me, adventurer! And The king will reward you plenty."

While she was introducing herself, I silently invoke and read her stats.

TITLE The Young Princess, Innocent Child, Genius, Stepping Stone

Hm.. my operator instinct is tingling. I have lots of question but so little time.

"Mind if I ask Your Highness. Where did you get the dagger?."

"Yes..the goblin. He throws me into this room before he got out. There's a dagger on the table behind you. Several minutes later the old goblin come."

"I see. Well then, let's get out of here. Can you run?"

"No.. I'm sorry. But we need to save everyone."

" I'm sorry Your Highness. As of right now, you are a liability."

I'm sorry for the others but the right now, the princess is my route for survival in this world. I will never let anyone jeopardize my life here.

Suddenly,

"WWwaarRRggHH", a roar comes from across the room followed by a goblin rushing with a rustic sword. To protect the Princess, I shove her to the side and intercept the goblin.

The goblin is so wide open that I can slip under the arm and do the Gokyo and pin him to the ground.

My knife pierces the back of the skull leaving the grey matter to scatter on the floor. Damn, I am getting dull. To forget that I am in an enemy camp with Principal no less.

One surprise after another, the hut suddenly caught on fire.

"Princess! Let's get out of here."

and we run to the door.

The grim reality is waiting for us on the outside. The robe goblin suddenly mumble. A gibberish talk with power in it.

" ." A sudden ball of fire shoot toward us. Instinctively, I cover the Princess and jump to the side.

Max it!

Damn goblin! Did he really think he is the only one that can use magic? With my right hand dragging the princess around, I extended my left hand and pointed it toward the goblin.

""

But something when wrong, instead of shooting toward the enemy, the flame burn my left hand.

"Arrgh. FUCK! MY HAND."

" I, Idiot! You supposed the shoot it at the enemy." To think that I am being reprimanded by a girl. I am the adult here for goodness sake.

I pull the princess toward the back of a nearby hut.

" Let me heal that hand. ", a calming light emerges from the Princess little hand. The burn that I have just now suddenly gone leaving behind a slight itch. But right now, I can't take any rest. Many footsteps can be heard approaching us.

""

The hut caught on fire. I can feel the heat on the back of my head. Based on what I learn from Princess just now and my formerly burned hand, it seems like I have to shoot the magic. Based on my experience, I know one thing that shoots well. A gun.

"Ready Princess? "

"Yes!"

With my right hand gesturing the gun sign, I pull her hand and run toward the opening. There are two goblins waiting for us. Each with a club. I point my hand toward one of them, at the same time I imagine a fireball and compress it into a bullet. My original magic.

""

The goblin that I aim has his chest penetrate and blown from inside. The smell of burning flesh permeating the air.

DAMN RIGHT IT WORK!. Knowing fully well that I can kill them with this, I start to shoot the other goblin using the same magic. I pull the Princess and run toward the clearing. At the same time, I shoot the same magic to kill the goblins that are protecting the Robe Goblin. But right now I have to kill the robed goblin.

Shit the Mage is chanting something

How does the shitty Goblin have so much mana!

A bright light emerges from Princess light hand and just enough blind the goblin.

"Thanks! Your Highness. "

I aim my hand toward the head of the goblin.

" This is for being a pain in the ass. ."

The robe goblin fall and another freaking surprise happen. The goblin suddenly explodes like a grenade and killing the other that is inside the cage with him. It seems like the magic it prepared backfired because of it unable to shoot the magic.

" LUNA!!", the Princess sudden scream hysterically and collapses.

I support the young Princess before she could kiss the ground. The remaining goblins escape toward the jungle. The reason could be because the leader is dead.

Much like a show, I used to watch.

Anyway, less human for me to protect. Let's check my status.
