《The Gambling Demon King is full of Misfortune》Chapter 5
Advertisement
I woke up, not in my bed. But on the floor.
“Right… I passed out from exhaustion last night”
I said as I stood up and looked around.
“Well then, time to… expand the “wall”!”
I said as I walked away from the camp to find some logs.
0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0
Instead of finding logs… I found… a green midget with a tomahawk, which was made like my club… a sharp rock tied onto a stick using rags.
Luckily, it didn’t see me, since I was hidden in a bush… ha… luckily.
“Sigh”
I sighed, which wasn’t the smartest move, since the goblin noticed me!
“Huh? Hooman! No! Demon! Die Demon!”
The goblin shouted as it threw the tomahawk at me, I somehow managed to dodge it.
“Well then, time for you to die!”
I said as I hit it in the face with my club.
“Die! Demon!”
It shouted after losing a few teeth from the previous hit, as it tried to scratch me with its claws.
“Nope!”
I shouted as I dodged the scratch and kicked it in the face, knocking it over.
“Goblin! Friends! Help! Now!”
The goblin shouted desperately.
‘Seems like there’s more goblins around here’
I thought as I crushed the goblin's head in using my club. And I proceeded to grab the tomahawk out of a nearby tree.
“Well then, time to goblin hunting”
I said with a grin as I stood in place in a fighting stance.
“Come at me you green motherfuckers!!!”
I shouted at the top of my lungs, hoping to lure some goblins to my general direction, and I climbed up a tree, hoping none of them notice me.
0-0-0-0-0-0-0
They didn’t notice me. But, they did notice the goblin corpse. Which distracted them long enough for me to take two of them out.

‘Three remaining’
I thought as I jumped through the trees, clumsily.
“Fuck… That hurt”
I said as I jumped onto a tree branch and fell down.
“We found killer! Brethren! Attack!”
A goblin shouted, as it saw me.
“Fuck!”
I swore as I readied myself for combat, holding the club in my left hand and the tomahawk in my right.
“Bring it on fuckers!”
I taunted as I kicked the first goblin in the chest and slashed the second one’s arm.
“Kill the killer! Ha ha ha!”
The first goblin laughed as it tried to stab me, but I managed to dodge.
But, I didn’t manage to dodge the goblin behind me.
It stabbed me in the leg, with a rusted dagger.
“Fuck you too buddy!”
I said as I almost decapitated it using the tomahawk.
But, while I was busy trying to decapitate the goblin, the other two caught their breath and rushed me.
“Die!”
“Kill! Kill! Kill!”
They shouted.
“Fuck off you green cunts!”
I shouted as I kicked one in the face and hit the other in the face with my club.
While they were both down, I quickly took them out using the club.
“Alright… so, I got four points from killing five goblins… I just HAD to use the tomahawk on that one! Fuck!”
I said as I stared at the corpses in front of me.
“Well then, I better find those logs.
I said as I walked around the woods.
I managed to find several logs around and managed to drag them back to camp, individually.
I tied them up with the rags, dug a hole to place each of them into and, with a single thought, dug a small trench around the camp and placed the 200 pointy sticks in them.

“Hopefully, something will be dumb enough to step there and impale their feet”
I said with a smile.
I then, finally got some pop-ups from the system.
500 EXP

After looking at the usual screens, also getting annoyed the fact that the goblins were only worth double the wolves, even though they actually use WEAPONS!!! I looked at my status, to see how much longer it’ll take to get to the next level.

I was actually quite surprised.
“Holy shit! If I kill another… three goblins, I’ll get a level up!”
I said excitedly as I began to cook the wolf from the previous day.
“Oh right, system…”
I said.
Yes?
“Lottery”
I said simply.
Rolling
It replied, also simply.
“Holy Knight”
“Holy Armour”
“Laptop”
“Straw Pillow”
“Ninja”
“Wolf x30”
“Earth Golem x1000”
There were a lot of good things that came up, but it landed on…
“Bread x5”
I was quite angry.
“Fucking five pieces of bread? Are you fucking shitting me!?”
I shouted as I repeatedly punched the tree.
STR +1

“Oh! I got stronger… [Status]”
I said, as I looked at my status, again.

“I feel slightly tougher and a bit stronger! Cool!”
I said as I punched the tree again, causing it to crack slightly.
“Holy shit! Is that what a difference of three stat points does? Oh my god!... Now I feel worse about the -100 luck…”
I said depressingly, as I went to sleep in my bed made of leaves, grass, and rags.

Rainer, an amateur arcanist and college student, sought to create a new spell far surpassing the magic of the few he inherited from his grandfather. Yet the interference of an unknown event during the casting of his spell led him to be thrown through space and time.

Leveling and achieving a class beyond a simple farmer or peddler was an affair of life and death combined with years of hard training. Goblins were not the fodder that they should be, orcs filled bedtime stories in order to scare children into behaving, and a dragon? You might as well pack up and move to another country.He, however, enters this world with the rare and powerful class of the Arcanist. How will the recently ardent seeker of magic find greater heights, or will he land in deeper depths?Additional Tags: Game elements, Another World, Mature Themes Cover Art: by NGT http://forum.royalroadl.com/showthread.php?tid=83944Current Word Count: 413,193Weekly Schedule: Long Chapter(s) Every Saturday Night EST

Reborn Into My Novel
What if you lived in the world of your own creation? As fate would have it, our dear amateur novelist, Ellie, was reborn into the world of her fantasy novel after falling asleep at her computer. Bewildered as she was, the first person that she met was the protagonist of her novel. To add salt to the wound, it was right before the tragedy that decimated his village as per his backstory. Will Ellie save the village (and herself) to risk changing the fundamentals of her novel? Will she instead let the story run its course and leave everyone in the village to their deaths? Disclaimer: This novel is a work in progress and will be updated hopefully at least once a week. Expect minor mistakes (maybe some typos and punctuation errors) since this is the very first draft. The author suffers from perfectionism and impostor syndrome and therefore attempts to use this as sort of a therapy to break away from perfectionism and self doubt. Basically, the author employs a “I don’t care anymore and screw this trash work” mindset just to get stuff rolling and not set any expectations. Basically, basically, the author just wants to write something and not care about planning and quality and all those nice things about writing a GOOD novel since it’s counterproductive. Kthxbye. ps: Thanks for even reading this trash work pps: You’re not trash for reading this trash work btw ppps: Thanks I love y’all so much Shout out!
