《Why a goblin?!》A Problem
Advertisement
So after risking my life and dancing on the fine line between life and death, I only managed to kill a much smaller saber ostrich? Well, that's really annoying, to be honest with you...Anyway, a kill is a kill, and all it means is that I just have to kill the one in front of me right now. I just don’t know how to do that yet though. For one, this damn bird is really big, with its body reaching seven feet in height and it’s neck adding on another five feet for a total of twelve, it’s double the height of the previous ostrich. And it’s definitely not lacking in how much wider it is too, so I have no idea how I’m supposed to kill this thing.
Is it even going to take the bait? I have no idea if cannibalism is a thing for monsters or not, or maybe it only applies to some monsters. If so, is this saber ostrich a part of that particular group? I can only hope. For now, let's just watch and see what this saber ostrich does. It took a minute or two before it started walking towards the dead body of a fellow member of its species, although it was a smaller one. Once it arrived, I got really nervous, because a couple of different things can happen from this point on.
In one scenario the ostrich can bend down to eat the bait, and from there I can figure out how I would like to attack it. Another scenario would have the ostrich immediately leaving the area after looking at the bait; this is a scenario I’d like to avoid if possible because I need all the fighting experience and leveling I can get. The only other scenario I think possible is the worse one in my mind, instead of focusing on the bait, the saber ostrich immediately spots me in the tree and attacks, thus pulling me into a fight where I no longer have the surprise factor, which then brings on a strong chance of me dying to this damn bird. That’s a big no-no from me so let's hope and pray for scenario number one, please.

It only took two giant steps for the ostrich to reach the bait, and once it got there it seemingly paused for just a second before bringing its neck down to the dead saber ostrich to begin eating it. YES!! I started screaming inwardly because the best scenario happened, you wouldn’t be able to tell by looking at me because I am currently perfectly still on this tree branch as I watch the massive saber ostrich eat.
Now for the hard part. The ostrich won’t take a long time to eat, so I have to move quickly, the only ways I can think of to attack from here is to either try and get a headshot with a spear throw and hopefully killing it instantly, or diving in straight at it’s massive back and landing a strong blow with the spear still in hand. The spear throw can end the fight before it even starts but if I miss or I’m not strong enough to pierce its skull then the ostrich will be alerted and I’ll be caught red-handed without a weapon to properly defend myself. Truly a high-risk high reward situation. Now if I dive on the ostrich’s back while stabbing it with my spear, I’ll be able to guarantee at least one strike on the ostrich. Though the downsides are a bit concerning. I know I won’t be able to kill it one shot, plus I don’t know if I'll even be able to inflict a wound of any type of significance.
Then after I land on it, what comes next? Do I then turn into a goblin cowboy and ride the ostrich while trying to kill it? There’s a lot of uncertainty there. So which option do I take? The high-risk high reward one or the guaranteed hit but who knows what after one?

After some quick thinking since I’m on short time, I did what I thought was best! I dived like a missile at the saber ostrich with my spear pointing forward!
Pushing off the branch with all the strength my little goblin legs can muster, it only took a second for me to make an impact with the ostrich! It happened so fast that It couldn’t even react until I hit it! I don’t know how much damage I actually did, but blood is gushing out everywhere around the stab wound I made. At the same time as my impact on the ostrich, it immediately let out a wailing screech that seemed to pierce the heavens itself! It couldn’t be compared to the one from the smaller ostrich I killed earlier! All I could do was scream on the top of my lungs while my ears started bleeding. With the ostrich thrashing about along with its screeching I was forced to let go of the spear as it did its best to throw me off! But before it could completely succeed in doing so, I latched on to its long neck and held on to it with my whole body trying to strangle it to death! The ostrich then did something I didn’t think it’s neck was strong enough to do! It began thrashing me onto the ground and nearby trees with my body completely wrapped around its neck. With every hit and bash against something I screamed and screamed, as my body became covered in more and more wounds with each hit, but through nothing but sheer and utter willpower I held on and squeezed for dear life!
Knowing the second, I let go will be the end for me, I squeezed with every ounce of strength I had left in my body!
“DIE YOU FUCKING OVERSIZED BIRD!!!”
Yelling on top of my green goblin lungs, I squeezed till I couldn't anymore before I finally heard a snapping sound, and the saber ostrich stopped moving as we both fell to the ground.
“WHAAAAAAA!!!”
That day I let out my very first battle cry, announcing to the world that Rick the Goblin is going to be a problem. Gang Green bitches.

It all started with a dead body and an explosion… But what you really need to know is that, I used to be a loser, then I got jacked and went on my own adventure… After the explosion I took off west, expecting, well what does it matter what I was expecting? What I found was an epic adventure! Who would have thought that could happen to a former loser like me? I became a criminal, a musician, traveled through time, battled beings that shouldn’t exist and took part in a high stakes tournament. But that’s not the half of it!
