《Pedlar of Another World》Pedlar of Another World - Chapter 37

[Last Cave attempt before I decided to stop everything and move ahead.]
Before I left the settlement, of course, I used the Goblin Core on one of the newborn Goblin Infant. The moment the core entered its body, the goblin turned into a dull colour before it turned into a colour that was blessed to me. When I looked at the infant, it had already turned into a Green Goblin. Looking at the Noble Goblin under my controls, I couldn't help but chuckle at a few times as I look at the goblin's stat.

Traits:
Green Goblin possess the Blood Ritual that will allow them to efficiently bleed their enemy to strengthen themselves. They are more disciplined, listens to order and would not act without any directions. Good instead.
Skills:
Wild Ritual (Passive) - any blood that was managed to be consumed by the Goblin will allow it to produce 1 Point each 50ml.
Too Fertile (Passive) - Goblin could product spawns without limit if they were given chances to impregnate a Female Kind (Skill does not work at infertile targets)
As I looked at the skill, it second Passive skill is a little too disturbing, at least it is for me. But after I consider the current situation of how I could see this world, I could guess why the goblin is born with this kind of ability. But one thing in return, the female goblin that was born within their tribe, is cursed with Infertility, which made the goblins have no choice, but to kidnap more targets to continue their breeding.
I walked away from the 4th Mountain Peak and head back to the First Peak without delaying, and spend another few days over here for some mining. The moment I had myself well stocked with the plenty of Brass Rods and some copper Rods, I return to the Ling Hun Town, seeing myself have nothing else needed to do here. But the moment I left the Brass Mountain, a sight appears before me, which could make me feel happy and worry at the same time.
It seems like there is a small number of goblins could be seen along my path. I run my scan a few times as I get closer to them, and after a thorough scanning, I noticed that there is at least six group of ten goblins, and also three dots that was blinking even faster standing in the middle of their widespread formation. I looked at my side and consider the odds.
A Slime with four-point strength. A Goblin with five-point strength, and myself with an almost six-point strength. I have a weapon, so I could easily kill the goblins, but my slave pet doesn't. If they are not careful, I will immediately lose two of my pet without warning, and this will really hurt for my side. I considered for a short moment as I remembered a trick used to be performed by some groups of player in my world.

I looked at my slime and tried to call it, but I forget I've yet to name it. Hmm... Let us call you Pori. But the moment I named it, a notice came out from my status panel. I opened it to have a look.
"Your qualification is too low to name a slave. A minimum point of doubling the pets stats point is required.
Action Failed
Alright, I guess I am still too weak. But attacking the enemies is still needed to be done anyway, as I order the slime to go and attract their attention. The slime went right into their ranks and gave one of the green goblins a headbutt. The green goblin turned around and look at the slime, as the slime escape, but instead, it was given a kick by the goblin and slammed on the tree.
Slime HP reduced by 2 points.
"Go again!" I sent my order. The slime went into the group again, and this time, directly slammed itself into the goblin's chest. The goblin gets angry again, and kick the slime back to the same spot once again. "HP reduce by 3 points." Alright, this is done or die trying. I had the slime charge directly towards the item on the group this time, and with one big swallow, the slime ate all the item as it escaped. This time, the goblins are thoroughly enraged by this action and gave the goblin a chase.
I sent my goblin pet out this time, and as my goblin lifted up a wooden rope that was tied at a hidden spot, it contracted and forced four among the ten goblins that giving a chase, fall down and kissed the ground. I move out next and gave four headshots directly into their head. After killing the four goblins, I aimed upwards, towards those that yet to turn around and attack me.
I fired three more shots and kills three of them, leaving only three to felt a slight fear, but as they see only three of us are their opponents, a new surge of bravery came out from their mind. They charge straight to where myself and my goblin is standing, and with my pistol, I fired four shots, but only managed to kill two of them. One is still chasing me, with my goblin is confused with what it should do.
I aimed at the goblin and let it get close to me before I bent down to evade its slashing attack. Blunt Knife with a blunt armour, do you think you could really injure me? I fire two more shots and take away its life. The corpse then fell to the ground, but it is not vanishing yet. I looked at the two slave pets of mine, as one struggle to drink the blood, while another is busy eating all the flesh.

Seeing their gluttonous active, I decided to wait for a while, until they both finished. The ten goblins yield a total of 50 points for my hunter skill, while it yields a total of forty points to both the slime and the goblin. Of course, they were obedient enough to pick all the item for me before they come back to my side.
Seeing that this is quite a good experience for the three of us, I've decided to continue hunting for the remaining groups. We proceed slowly but carefully as we attack each of the groups. In just mere two hours, we had successfully subdued and killed six more of the groups before the three leader figure pull all other goblins to attack towards somewhere. It seems that the leader did not notice the killing of seven of its group as well.
As I see all of the goblins is moving away, I move towards another direction, directly opposite of where the remaining goblins had charged. This is the only way that will ensure that the three of us are exactly safe from any pursuit. After retreating to an opposite direction for at least around half an hour, we went for a stop, and I checked for our surrounding before we went towards the direction where the Ling Hun Town is located.
A half day later, we safely went into the town, but of course, under the disguise of the cape for the Goblin and I put the Slime on my head, treating it as a hat as I walked back to the Refining Workshop. But before I manage to sneak my goblin and slime into the room, Section Leader Zhu had already caught up with my sneaking attitude and stopped me halfway.
"Lu Bu boy, stop there," he called, and having no other choice, I stopped and face him with a calm but easily seen through expression. "What is that two doing here, following you to that small room?" he asked. I am totally exposed with nothing to says as I looked at Section Leader Zhu and answered his questions. "This two guy is my new slave pet. I have just completed a quest and get some of the essence crystal from the Red Blood Cave." I answered him but he gave me a knock straight away. "I ask, why are you taking that two with you to your room?" Section Leader Zhu gave me another knock straight away.
"Is that wrong?" I asked. He looked at me and answered my question. "Alright, new kid, listen with attention. The Refining Workshop have quarters for those who have Slave Pet at their side. You can place them over there for just a single Black Spirit Crystal each for every night. You understand why I ask you such question now?" Section Leader Zhu explained, and as I listen to his explanation, I could only say "Ohhh..." in reply to his lengthy words.
Just like this, I placed the two into the Slave Pet Quarters and return to my room for a good rest. The next day, I bring the two of them again to follow me to another location. The Night Glowing Cave. But before that, I have to go over to the Blacksmithing Workshop again for some additional repairing and upgrading works before I entered the cave. In the same time, I am trying to give the Goblin a pickaxe as well, so he could help me along with the mining works. Unfortunately, Slime here have no possible skill at the moment, so I could only allow it to be idle within the mines while looking at the two of us.
I went into the Blacksmithing Workshop without delay and started to repair the too as I started to craft another Pickaxe between the process. Using only the Brass Metal Piece (10%) to craft a proper Pickaxe, I actually managed to create my own customized pickaxe. It is actually quite surprising because If I know this would happen, I will craft my own pickaxe at the first place.
Ancient Heritage Shovel-Pickaxe
Category: Tools
Grade: Fine Grade 10
Durability: 50/50
Stat: Allow the Shovel-Pickaxe to perform in two kinds of environment.
Equipment Bonus:
Only Usable by Creator
10% Better results if used on Mining and Plantation Harvesting.
Damn! It is not only usable in Mining, this could be also used in harvesting herbs and plants. With a dual usage, this too already could help me in performing extremely well in Concoction Workshop or as an adventurer. And this tool is actually at its fine grade after I spend about six hundred of Brass Rod to refine it into a total of 50 Brass Metal Piece (10%).
With some other preparation is completed, I went directly into the Night Glowing Cave, with the intention to properly harvest plenty of materials before I exit this cave. I will push my capability into a higher limit when I exit this place and start to work my ass as a pedlar!

Soul Weapon Awakening, My Weapon Is A Harmonica
Traversing into this world where the Awakened was respected and where ferocious beasts were rampant, the Soul Weapons the others have awakened to were like the Spirit Lightblade, Moon Spear… but when it came to Copperfield, he awakened to the “piano” and “harmonica”. Copperfield gloriously became a support-type member of the Awakened. However, when people saw the tens of thousands of ghosts that flew out from the Gate of Hell behind Copperfield that subsequently laid siege to the shuddering beasts when he was playing the piano, their entire outlook on the world was struck, “How is he a support?!”

This statement has never been truer for Damis, a student attending one of the many schools in the City of Sundridge. He never wanted anything more than to live a peaceful life, going so far as to avoid having large group of friends, indulging in dragged out conversations, or being involved in any other activity that requires him to invest a large amount of effort to accomplish. Instead, he poured all of his efforts into studying, dwelling in his internal monologues, and complaining about the things that annoy him to his one and only friend, Noah. Before long, he ended up as one of the best students in his class. As far as he was concerned, he was content with how he lived. But, after a confrontation with an eccentric girl named May, one of his classmates since the first year of high school, things have suddenly gotten out of hand. And as a result, his life became a lot more hectic than it used to be. Bound by a deal he could not refuse, his life as May's assistant began. At this rate, can he still spend the final days of his high school life in peace? Welcome to the life of Damis, the boy who's always A Step Behind Death. The cover art is made by friend of mine. I plan on making this novel into a webtoon once it becomes the best it can be. English isn't my first language, so expect some grammar bumps along the way.
