Year 5009 after the system day 40 of the sun season later in the afternoon outside of the outpost wall.

"You seem happy merchant Chelsea," Aurora says expressionlessly after noticing her smiling face.

"Just Chelsea is enough, we'll spend some time together every now and then, even if most economical affairs will be dealt between me and the prince, as you're already full of work in here, speaking of which what are you doing here?"

"Certainly the same as you," Aurora smiles lightly at her confusing her.

"Uh? I'm here to get to know you better, how would that be the same as you?"

"Ah... but Chelsea, in that case, I'm here to get to know myself better as well."

"I understand, you're trying to bully me," she averts her gaze from the girl feeling upset inside.

"Not at all, I'm being sincere towards you."

"Then I don't understand what is it you're trying to say."

"Perhaps showing is the correct definition."

"Then what is it you'll be showing me?"

"That I have yet to figure out myself," Aurora keeps looking at the area around her looking at something or someone confusing Chelsea.

'I wonder if his highness didn't pick the wrong person for the job after all... I can't help but find her delusional.'

"There's something approaching from the South I believe," Aurora said while looking at the guards on top of the wall.

The different bells on top of the wall start ringing making the humans prepare themselves while leaving Chelsea in awe.

"Is that perhaps a green flag?" Chelsea asks herself noticing it from afar while rotating her body southward.

"The goblin kingdom flag, it appears in the old records from the church, that were lent to me not too long ago, still have somethings to read, but sadly don't have access to everything, neither does the Saintess who I'm using to procure information."

"Is that so? That's a rather small force to come towards the opponent base no?"

"It's an envoy, it seems they want to talk about something, it is an unnatural thing to do which didn't appear in the war records of the past, thus there has been a change in the leading figures."

"Why would we communicate with them? They're beasts! How do you even know that based on that information alone?"

"Why not?" Aurora grinned and then spoke," isn't talking what you do best? Why do you do it?" She replied to a question with a question avoiding replying on purpose to her last question.

"That and this... never mind."

"Aurora."

"Hum?" She takes a glance at the voice source that called out for her.

"Oh Momo, great you've arrived, this will be a good opportunity for you to test yourself out and even learn a couple of negotiation things, come along and bring that brother of yours, they're four, so let's correspond it with the same number out of respect."

Chelsea started counting noticing that she had been included without permission, giving up, sighing, and tagging along with them slightly shaken as they were goblins.

'There's an old man and three goblins that look rather strong, I guess the king isn't amidst them then, he's supposed to wear a crown and look a lot bigger than those.'

The old goblin stabs the flag on the ground and pierces the staff next to it, to show he's not there to harm anyone extending both arms to the side while taking two steps away from it.

Aurora continuously moved without stopping a single time, as none of her sides had weapons except Ming, who had a fishing rod on his back to which the goblins didn't seem to mind as they too used similar versions of it to hunt not to fight.

Upon arrival, the old goblin spoke in their place acting as their leader," little blonde girl leader of humans? Killer of the great shaman? Greater than myself."

"The hero Sophia slew the great shaman, a pink-haired woman, and yes, I'm the leader of this army we could say, the acting general of his highness army prince Julius."

After a long pause from the goblin thinking, he then spoke.

"I am Grazta the wise, counselor of the ferocious goblin queen Gruag from a faraway kingdom in the South, and currently the one leading the army on his highness name the almighty goblin king Vrag, strongest of his kingdom."

"A pleasure to meet you Grazta the wise, my name is Aurora, aside from my role as the general I apologize, but I do not have a great title such as yourself," Aurora made an innocent childish, and kind expression bowing lightly towards him out of respect startling him.

While lowered she said," though if I were to consider one... it would without be the title pandemonium as the follower of the babel witch," she raised solely her face expanding her dark aura condensing an incredible amount of mana worth 5000, causing everyone around her to shake from the magical pressure mixed with the killing intent skill.

The shaman proceeded to cover himself in mana allowing him to resist the shaking grinning at her expanding his own mana making a light aura from his unique light element, and as it stretched towards Aurora to overwhelm it.

The girl looked at him making an eerie expression with a devilish smile doubling the amount used overpowering the goblin light, making him jump backward as her aura smashed the ground he was in, and then she retracted it dissipating both of the auras slowly.

"Monster, how dare you possess such powerful mana!? You don't even have an aura like those around you! What are you? A demon?" Grazta shouted not enjoying in the slightest the contest of elements they conducted.

Before anyone could notice Aurora's expression, she passed both hands through the face and stared innocently and quietly at the old goblin who was making a fuss.

'See prince! Aurora truly feels like a demon, what kind of human other than the most talented adults, the Saintess, and the heroes would exude this much magical pressure!?' Chelsea thought to herself still not believing Aurora to be a human.

"Hum? What kind of aura do we humans have? I don't see any."

The goblin feeling superior at least in aura knowledge started laughing looking down at us from the earlier contest, and then while pumping his hairy and muscled chest said," so you humans don't know the truth about your goddess?" He started laughing harder making his guards follow through.

"You sure know a lot, I guess that's where your wise title comes from," Aurora replied expressionlessly realizing that there were things she didn't know due to the lack of access to them.

"Of course! Hear of my knowledge for it is endless! Before the system the many races were born superior and killed the humans easily like ants, but then the goddess Aria felt as she predicted her loss in the long term that it wasn't a fair fight, so to avoid that, insisted on the creation of the system made by the 4 gods who govern this world, and due to that your status should have disgrace and fame, both parameters give way to a unique aura, but only the one with the most amount is active, as such, I can feel that the man next to you is strong and he has a white aura from fame, we tortured plenty of humans in the past and held many tests to discover such differences, but you're an exception, I sense neither auras from you, and this sensing is an ability of the beast races by the goddess Luna, even though it doesn't always help us much, since we've found people with a lot of aura that were weak."

"Thank you for the amazing explanation Grata the wise, now that the introductions are done, and obviously I'm the only human capable of such talents on this side," she shouted while pointing the thumb at herself," feel blessed for I am one who leads, not one who fights due to having a very sickly body, possibly the reason you feel no aura coming from me!"

"It is true, I didn't receive reports which indicated such an ill aura participating in the earlier fight, but even if you do, the goblin king, once he recovers, he will still have no trouble in the slightest finishing you off! He's level 134! Certainly not sickly either!" The old goblin started laughing, attempting to provoke Aurora.

"Recover uh, so the curse of the past hero hasn't faded off yet, meaning if I were to invade your kingdom now, it would be fairly easy," she raised her voice provoking him in return.

"Don't look down on us goblins," he roared at her fiercely, "if we were to rally altogether with one million soldiers I'm sure you wouldn't escape alive!" Taking on the bait he starts making angry but reasonable remarks.

'So they do have a million of them, thank you for clarifying all this information,' she started laughing, and then said," why would I be careful about you guys? Most of that one million goblins are a lot smaller than us humans!" She laughed pissing him off further this time purely out of amusement.

"You humans are minuscule compared to some of us you little wench, just you wait a year and a half for the red moon, and we'll obliterate every single one of you!"

"That's not how you beg for truces with someone else, Grata the wise," Aurora chuckled in his face making him furious.

"Begging!? Ah, fool! Do you think someone as wise as me would come to plea from anyone?"

"From anyone perhaps not, but for your king it wouldn't be a bad act, in fact, if that wasn't the reason for coming this far then what was?"

He coughed going silent in thought. 'What do I say now... that was the real reason, but I didn't want to make it sound so obvious, I can always tell the king negotiations failed and we'll fight them defensively...'

"I'm waiting... please don't make me anticipate, I truly despise it. You'd be surprised as to how much I've already been doing it."

At those words, the goblin laughed and said," you waiting for a long time, enough to amaze someone as old as me? That was a funny joke, I commend you for that, perhaps you'll become the jester of that witch of yours!"

With a big genuine smile, Aurora replies excitedly," that would be rather amazing! To make her laugh every single day ah... perhaps after I'm done being a general, but sadly you won't be there to see it."

Realizing that his provocation failed the old goblin coughed and proceeded with the negotiations.

"The king after what happened as deemed you a filthy yet worthy opponent, as such, we'll advance our army to war in the day of the red moon and devastate the human lands, till then if you wish to sit and wait, you're welcome to if not since we're already at war, feel free to come after us, we'll be waiting," he grinned evilly making his face full of wrinkles looking even scarier.

"I might just take such an invitation," Aurora bowed lightly feeling honored, making the goblin take a few steps forward while laughing, and then lifting the flag together with the staff leaving.

As he was turning around remembering a conversation he had with the goblin lord, he asked," were you the one who made our mother the great goddess Luna angry? Also, the one who assassinated some goblins a year ago in the forest killing the son of the goblin lord, who was a big looking warrior level 20 followed by many?"

Doing her best to contain the shock she received from that information Aurora replies calmly," Yes, I made your goddess angry by making the statues bleed, and no, I didn't kill the goblin son, my name is Aurora after all don't forget it, as you'll be hearing and saying it a lot from this day onwards," she smiled confidently of her words.

"Hum... I understand I'll let him know," unknowingly to Aurora the information given to Grata on this day, would completely cause unforeseen changes in the future...

As he was once again turning around Aurora's voice reached his ears, "who's stronger your queen or the goblin king?" To which he replied without looking back," of course, that would be my queen the greatest warrior of the goblins capable of overwhelming Giganto."

"Giganto? Is he a different king?" He looked turning his face back to her once again and said with a very wicked smile," he's the biggest goblin 5 times taller than those wooden walls of yours, and we have a thousand of them who were born since the last war," he turned around and left laughing bluffing, due to that Aurora's brain went into her normal calculating mode.

'Goblins have giants within their kingdom? A mixed-species perhaps? An evolution species that bred? A female giant that was raped by the king? Are they stalling for time to breed even more of those? I didn't see anything about them in the church records... this means trouble and the possible loss depending on how strong they are, it seems like this world is truly fun,' she smiled excitedly unable to contain it inside of her, on the pretext to wage war against them as killing turned out to be quite pleasant, one of the things Aurora enjoyed most in life.

"That was very interesting to think they would have such tall goblins, but that simply means we just have to adapt to it, and since he told us about it, makes such preparations a lot easier, isn't that right teacher?"

"Of course Momo, but that also means there are more types of goblins in that kingdom, meaning that the level of war I taught everyone will have to step up a notch," upon hearing such words Momo frowned cutely while exasperating.

As they walked back to the outpost Chelsea, who was frightened spoke," are you truly sure we can wage war against such creatures Aurora?"

"Haven't I already? There's a big chance that I destroyed their cavalry in one go, so if they don't have anything faster than that, then building cavalry in the following year and having it on both wings will be the first ordeal to win this war, consider that my first request merchant Chelsea, and stop fearing everything, you only live once after all," the girl replied coldly while not even looking at the woman who gripped her fists taking the words to heart.

"Fine, once I have the money I'll start delivering the horses, so you can prepare fo-" Aurora interrupting her says," don't worry, I've already made Zylph mercenaries teach the men how to ride a horse, and of course, some of them already knew, we humans aren't that useless."

'We humans, Aurora said, well she truly is a level above most of us, but I guess she really is one, if anything this girl that calls her teacher would look more like a demon, so young with white hair and red eyes of demons, truly a cursed human, if I hadn't seen a drawing of a high-demon before I'd be spooked with her appearance, the difference is that they would be rather tall, strong-looking and also with a red skin.' Chelsea thought while trying to not hold prejudice against the young one.

"Speaking of which, what were you doing outside the outpost, don't tell me you predicted them coming today of all days Aurora."

"I couldn't possibly predict something like that, it's not like I have the Saintess powers, and even her doesn't see the future like that," Aurora smiled kindly and then said with an innocent expression," I was simply watching a million goblins dying trying to break through those walls, but during the following days, I'll add a thousand giants too."

The three of them gulped at the same time knowing that if there was anyone in the world, but Aurora who said such words, it would certainly be a lie, and the fact she did, it could only mean that the goblins would one-day face carnage.

"By the way Ming I want you to deliver a message to my sister while I teach yours for the following weeks."

"As you command general," Ming bowed the head lightly out of respect as he became quite loyal upon Momo's request, and Aurora's war knowledge which turned out to be the real thing. "Good, I'll write a letter inside my tent come."

"I'll be going off to the Lumen capital now Aurora, I have a lot of affairs to handle."

"Alright Chelsea, it was nice meeting you," she turns her face to the woman and added," you should become the leader of that association and shape it better," Aurora then enters the tent without hearing her reply.

The woman upon hearing such words, bowed down lightly towards the general back while gripping both hands,' to think that talented girl would expect something from me... I certainly appreciate the chance you've given me to fully utilize our deal to become the wealthiest woman in the kingdom, and by the time we're done defeating those green mongrels, I'll certainly stand at the top of the merchant association, and make Ricardo respect me for my abilities,' she laughed lightly in greed while walking towards the coachman further back in the outpost.
