“With this fantastical orb of wonders, I will boost the power of all the Goblins and also the former slaves living there by the power of Jobs… Also, everyone will be able to specialize even further into what they’re good at. I am sure even Gofumin will make good use of a Job,” I said.
“Wow… Indeed! I remember that she said she wanted to be an Adventurer, didn’t she?” asked Emeraldine.
“Yep! She wants to be an Adventurer and hunter like her mother… So we’ll help her out in fulfilling her dreams by training her out, if possible. Even if she’s a small little baby girl that only deserves hugs and kisses,” I said.
“You’re very fixated with her!” Said Partner rather jealously.
“W-What? Well… She’s so cute… I feel like she’s my little adoptive daughter!” I said.
“W-What about us?” Asked Takeshi sorrowfully.
“Well, I am not that childish to want such a thing….” Said Julia.
Her mental age was higher than Takeshi’s.
“Takeshi, you’re also my little baby boy!” I said as I held him with my arms.
He got embarrassed suddenly and tried to jump out of my embrace.
“O-Okay… let me go! I don’t want this…!” He cried.
“Fufu, didn’t you want to be a baby?” I asked.
“N-No!” He cried.
“Okay, okay…” I sighed while giggling.
As I chatted around with my friends in the caravan, I was inspecting the people of the village using the snakes I sent there. There were around four of them, and they were using Stealth and other abilities to conceal their presence.
The goblins were doing fine, a big group of them had just hunted down three boars, and they were roasting them. The entire tribe was sitting around it and preparing other food too. Also, they still had the vegetables and fruits I left for them. They’re good at keeping it and distributing food slowly, I see.
There were some of the former slaves that were gone by now, and they had most likely decided to go back home, while a few humans, dwarves, elves, and so on were still there, working on their own. They had made more tents for them, but it’s not as if they had changed their entire place drastically or something.
I stealthily moved around the village, and I spread two snakes around the outskirts of the village while another two went inside to explore. I was looking for Gofumin.
Suddenly, I found her, she was almost the same as before, but was with two other friends, and they were grilling three rabbits which they had butchered just and looked hungry. The little green-skinned baby girls were already able to cook by themselves. It seems that the chief taught her well.
“Uwah, Gofumin-chan!” I said, as I tried to move near her, but suddenly an arrow hit my snake body.
CLASH!
“Uagh! C-Careful there, idiot!”
“A-A snake! Kill it!” A kid had fired an arrow at me and seemed concerned.
The three girls near me quickly panicked, and my reencounter with Gofumin came to an abrupt end.
“Gyaaah!”
“S-Snake?!”
“Snake!”
CLASH!
My entire snake body was crushed by the girls’ feet and their wooden spears as I dissipated into a phantom.
“Huh? It’s gone?”
“W-What was that?”
“A ghost snake!” Shouted Gofumin in surprise.
She guessed it right.
I was still looking over them through another snake hiding around town, so it was all within my grasp even if you have slain one of me, hehehe!
However, suddenly, something startled me.
As everyone enjoyed their meals in the village, my two other snakes inspecting the outskirts of the forest around the village suddenly caught something terrible.
By expanding the senses of my snakes, I was able to see, hear, and smell from very far away and easily discern a group of people just around 60 meters away from the village. There were around 30 of them!
W-What is the meaning of this?!
They looked like mercenaries mixed with adventurers, and some weak-looking dudes were leading them… Wait, I am pretty good at remembering faces.
Aren’t those the slaves we rescued from the Necromancer?
“Yeah, right there…! The goblins that had been killing the adventurers that had disappeared live there!”
“C-Careful! There is some Undead guarding the place….”
“Yeah, but you promised that you’ll pay us if we give them to you, right?”
They were a trio of idiot nobodies whose names I don’t even remember, but I do remember their stupid and common-looking faces.
To think the slaves we rescued would end up selling us! I was careless. I should have left some insurance so these bastards wouldn’t have tried to backstab us…!
Two suspicious-looking fellows were leading the group of over 30 people. One of them looked more like a bandit, as he was a bald dude with a big scar on his face, wearing animal leather and carrying a gigantic ax infused with a lot of magic power. It was actually a powerful Magic Weapon.
The guy looked like a bandit, but he was a strong motherfucker. I could clearly feel his presence, and he wasn’t comparable with Elderlight, but he was easily a man at around B-Rank!
And at his side, there was a Priest. Indeed, there was a Priest from the church with them, accompanied by another four priests and priestesses. They carried pouches with holy water and staves infused with holy magic. They seemed to have teamed up with the mercenaries and adventurers contracted for this extermination task to get rid of my Undead!
Using Inspect, I discovered the bandit-like guy was named Leon and had the title of “the Beast Hunter” while the Priest leading the group of the church was named Eric, with the title of “Slayer of Evil”…
Seriously?! You’re packing way too much strength to come to slay some little goblins!
The priest was around B-Rank too in power, and the entire group amounted to a mix of D-Ranks and C-Ranks… although the majority were D-Rank, they came with weapons covered in spells made by the priest, which actually dealt extra damage to Majin and Undead… damn bastards!
I have to get there quickly then!
