《Re: Corruption》Chapter 2: Incoming Danger
Advertisement
Interesting. My ability seems to be able to identify living things now.
I can see his name, he never told it to me.
So he is called Tralgur, it kind of fits him.
I wonder where he got his title from. ‘Sole Survivor’ sounds as if he is the last remain of some kind of group. I will ask him about that later, he doesn’t seem to be in the mood right now.
Anyway now that he’s sleeping again I can take another look at my surroundings.
The ugly children around me were dressed in some kind of filthy looking rags, only covering parts of their stomach and lower body. They had small but sharp looking claws and not one of them showed any signs of hair.
I started observing the few goblins who already awoke using my Ability.
GoblinName?(not named yet)TitleNo TitelLevel8
GoblinName?(not named yet)TitleNo TitelLevel15
GoblinName?(not named yet)TitleNo TitelLevel2
Now that I see it, the Ogre also had a level, but it was shown as ???.
Let’s see do I also have one?
I started staring at my hand, nothing happened.
This world is so game like, with goblins and Ogres and them having levels.
Time to try something!
*Status*
GoblinName?(not named yet)TitleCurious OneLevel25
It worked! But where did this title come from? I didn’t see a title on any of the young goblins I observed.
And my level, I am 10 levels stronger than any of the other goblins here. That’s interesting, maybe my thought process and my early adaption of my surroundings gave me additional Experience points… There are levels so I guess these points are also a thing here.
Hmm I do have a Status and levels.
Its experimenting time!
*Inventory*
Nothing happened. Well I would have been way too overpowered if I would actually have an inventory, so that was to be expected.

*Skills*
Night vision (mastered)Gives the owner the ability to see at night, only works to a certain degree.
That’s my only skill? This race sure is weak.
I wonder if there is any way to see my current strength or other attributes of mine.
*Attributes*
Again no reaction, well nothing I can do about it.
I tried some other game things out, but none worked.
Just when I decided to go back to sleep the Ogres words came back to me.
‘You will die soon anyway’
is what he said.
Seems like I have to get ready and proof him wrong. I don’t plan on dying again anytime soon.
Taking another look around I saw that the one wall I didn’t observe was actually not fully made of stone like the others.
It was like in a prison cell, with steel bars stopping us from leaving.
There was also a typical jail door, it looked like it was also made from steel. It was heavily locked.
Behind the bars stood two human guards, they talked in a language I couldn’t understand.
HumanNameJohnTitleNo TitelProfessionGuardLevel32
HumanNameRauTitleNo TitelProfessionBrawlerLevel36
So I could even see names of members from other races.
Also these two had something called profession. This is probably what they were trained for.
Their levels don’t seem to be too much higher than mine, but maybe it’s different for humans, maybe it shows their age?
With Goblins that’s definitely not the case. There’s no way this body is 25 years old.
After observing them some more a little bar, similar to my skill bar popped up.
Skill: Human language (minor) learned
I almost started crying from happiness. The strongest aspect of my old ability was still usable.
In my old life, when I watched people speak other languages or manufacturers like tailors or smiths do their work, I slowly understood the language or the profession. When I watched them long enough I sometimes was able to fully understand it.

Now that I was able to understand fragments of the conversation I was able to gain information without bothering the sleeping Ogre.
Over the next hours I listened to the conversation of a few different guards. Every hour they switched with other guards so I was able to gain some knowledge about where I was, and what I was doing here.
1) The place where I am is some kind of arena, various monsters and humans with or against each other.
2) This arena is located in the country of Ravaria, a military country which is currently reigned by a ‘King Robert’.
From what I heard he hates most kind of monsters or half humans.
He even prohibited trade with an elven tribe, losing a big part of the country’s economy.
3) The guards started making bets which goblins will survive tomorrow. I didn’t clearly understand what was supposed to happen on the following day but I understood one expression from this particular sentence. It was “Gladiator”.
It seems for now I won’t get any addition information from them, but apparently we Goblins will fight tomorrow. Either as Gladiators or against Gladiators.
I need to get prepared.
