episode_0006

I decided to use my points to prepare for the fight in the goblin lair.

First of all, since the strength stat had increased a lot compared to before, I was finally able to get rid of the dagger. After boldly discarding the dagger, I bought a short sword for 20 RP and equipped it right away.

I didn’t really need to buy the potion since I already got a few bottles from the tutorial, but I paid 5 RP for a bottle of antidote just in case.

Since ancient times, in fighting, defense takes precedence over attack.

I wasn’t absolutely scared, but… that’s why I decided to buy some better armor as well.

Fortunately, the items had the stat criteria for being able to handle them skillfully written underneath them. For example, the short sword I just purchased required a strength of around 8.

I would have liked to completely cover my entire body with thick armor like Kariel, but… my current strength stat was not enough to wear thick armor.

[Oil-boiled leather armor 25 RP]

In the end, I bought a set of oiled leather armor for 25 RP that required 7 strength stat.

I put on my leather armor and held a short sword with one hand. I felt something was missing, so I thought about it for a moment and realized that my other hand was empty.

What should I buy… I was thinking about it for a long time, and then I found something I liked among the items.

[Circular Shield 25 RP]

The required strength stat is also around 5… With your current strength stat, you can lift it without difficulty.

I imagined myself in fine armor, carrying a shortsword and shield.

Just imagining it made me feel good.

So I spent a total of 75 RP. I have about 100 points left…

I hesitated for a moment about what else to buy, then the unpleasant feeling of almost being killed by the gloomy woman came to mind.

At that time, I used up all my remaining RP to escape the life-threatening situation.

Does that mean I can use RP depending on the situation? Even if that’s not the case, I decided to save the remaining points because I can survive if I use up all my RP in a life-threatening situation.

After finishing my preparations and going out to the meeting place to wait, I soon heard a loud voice from far away.

“Come quickly, Ellis!”

“I told you I can’t run like that!! You idiot!”

“What? A life-size figure?!”

“Rim, that’s sad. I’m the only one who didn’t get the jerky…”

“I ate it just now, you idiot! And I told you not to shorten my name like that!”

I thought it was the voices of the party members I had arranged to meet, so I walked towards where I heard the voices.

“Oh my, you came out first? Did you wait long?”

“No…”

The group was a sight to behold wherever they went. A girl holding a staff with a suspiciously rounded tip, a warrior who looked to be about 190 tall, a woman with a silver veil covering her eyes, an archer with strangely pointy ears…

If I, a legal showa, join in, it will be an even stranger party.

“Big… Then, before we move, should we all introduce ourselves? Of course, we know each other, but since you don’t know… My name is Ellis Havern, the wizard.”

Ellis introduced herself again, this time with her gaze fixed on my chest.

‘You’re a consistent crazy bitch’

Then the warrior woman spoke, pounding her chest. Her chest was so large that it rippled every time she pounded it.

“My name is Lien Dyer. My hobby is eating pie quickly.”

“Hey! Lien, I told you not to say anything I didn’t ask! ”

“Eating the pie quickly is a serious matter.”

“What are you talking about, sir… My name is Kiel Limhari, and I am in charge of the rear gunner.”

Is Lien embarrassed? Kiel, who was introducing himself, shook his long ears vigorously. As soon as Kiel finished speaking, the woman wearing a silver veil opened her mouth.

“My name is Chloe Irona and I will be in charge of your treatment. Nice to meet you.”

“Those eyes…”

Chloe had her eyes covered with a veil, and underneath that, she had her eyes covered with a cloth. Could she see properly?

“I don’t need to open my eyes because God has revealed them.

I feel like I asked for nothing… Is Chloe a weird girl?

“My name is Baek Seo-jun, and I will be in charge of the vanguard.”

Clap clap-

When I finished speaking, everyone applauded me. Is this the taste of the power of the fucking bee?

Of course these bitches will taste that fucking bee too, right?

“Then let’s go.”

And so the journey to gang rape began.

***

Goblin.

Before catching the goblin, I asked the guild receptionist what its special features were.

To paraphrase the receptionist, goblins are the ugliest, most horrible, and most cunning creatures.

It is said to be a dangerous monster that is weak in strength but has many tricks, and can send even experienced adventurers to hell if they let their guard down…

It is said that they are particularly fascinated by human males and target men first and foremost.

However, the guild receptionist said that if you don’t let your guard down, it’s just a harmless monster and you can deal with it if you just stay alert.

Also, from what I’ve heard from Ellis and the party members, they’re all D-ranks, two levels higher than me, so they should be better at dealing with goblins than me.

“I’ll take the lead, so let’s get right in. I’ll take care of it quickly and then rest.”

Kiel said with a smile. Lien laughed heartily, perhaps because he found that funny.

“Rim, there won’t be anything else to do during break time anyway, so is there any need to rush?”

“I told you to shut up…”

Kiel’s blushing face was something to behold. Lien chuckled and tapped Kiel on the shoulder as she stepped forward.

“I’ll take the lead. Rim, it’s my job to protect you guys.”

“Just trying to catch a goblin but having to show off”

As we entered the cave, a foul smell surged from inside. It was like the rotten breath of an animal… It was unpleasant.

“Ugh, chew… It’s annoying no matter when I smell it.”

Kiel followed Lien, who had gone in first, with a frown on his face.

“Seojun, the archer goes ahead of the vanguard.”

After hearing that, I walked a little faster and passed Kiel.

“Just a moment.”

We stopped walking as Chloe shouted in a refreshing voice.

“What’s wrong? Chloe.”

“God said, there is an ambush ahead.”

“Ambush? What…you’ve never been wrong…Ellis!”

“Huh?!”

Was she thinking about something? Ellis looked startled when her name was called. When Ellis raised her staff, blue sparks shot out from the tip.

“Fireball!”

Ellis recited a simple spell. The sparks condensed into cotton, which condensed into a single point and launched into a ball.

Kwaang-! The dark cave was briefly illuminated by flames.

Before the fireball hit, several goblins could be seen lurking in the crevices of the cave.

They said it was an ugly monster… and it was indeed true. It had a disgustingly large nose and green skin… It was so ugly that it was hard to find a good part.

“Coming.”

Did the goblins realize that ambush wouldn’t work? They were trying to use their numerical superiority to engage in close combat.

Goblins armed with rusty daggers and wooden clubs rushed forward.

“Sigh!”

However, even a dagger or a club could not penetrate Lien’s huge shield. Lien pushed away the goblins that had arrived first with the shield in one hand.

-Squeak!

-Keaaak!

In an already narrow cave, the goblin running at the front stumbled and everyone else fell down.

“Ice pick!”

A chill emanated from Ellis’ staff, which then flew away as icicles. The icicles pierced the goblin’s neck, and then the arms and stomachs of the other goblins behind it.

“I’ll go too. Please cover me. Mr. Kiel.”

I drew my short sword and cut off the neck of a goblin that was just about to get up. In the gap, another goblin got up and struck me with a club, but I blocked it with the shield in my left hand and stabbed its neck.

After kicking the goblin’s corpse out with his foot and pulling it out, he tried to swing his sword at the goblin behind it, but an arrow was already stuck in its neck before he could do so.

Pot, pat-!

Arrows fly quickly. Goblins run towards them and are incapacitated by arrows hitting their shoulders or legs.

“Now.”

At Kiel’s signal, I ran out and easily cut down the disabled goblins.

“Don’t get ahead of yourself, kid!”

Bam-! A blind arrow flying from somewhere struck the shoulder exposed between the armor.

Were there archers too? Before I could scream in pain, I knocked away the flying bola with my circular shield.

Where the hell are you?

“There seem to be quite a few shooters, are you planning on shooting in the dark?”

Kiel muttered as he raised his bow and fired some retaliatory shots.

Thud-! This time, a wooden spear flew. My head almost got skewered, but Lien jumped forward and blocked the spear with her shield.

“I’m sorry…”

“I will pick you. Please be patient.”

“Sleep….!”

Before I could say anything, Chloe pulled out the arrow without permission.

Ding! The arrow was pulled out along with the flesh. Blood gushed out from where the arrow had been stuck.

“Kkaaah-!”

“I will treat you.’

A warm light poured out from Chloe’s palm. As the light touched the wound, the torn flesh gradually filled in.

“Ugh…”

“All done.”

“Gulp…”

Ellis, you bitch, did you swallow your saliva just now after hearing me moan? It’s so humid and creepy…

“If you’re cured, get up quickly and fight!”

Lien’s shout brought me back to my senses. I jumped up and straightened my posture at those words.

“I can’t figure out the timing to jump out… Ellis, use big magic.”

Lien, standing in front of me, muttered while adjusting his shield.

“Ehehehe… That little guy…”

Ellis was mumbling as she stared at me, drooling. Her eyes were wide open and it was a very unpleasant sight.

“Ellis!”

That crazy bitch… Her mind is full of thoughts about raping me…

“Big… Windcutter!”

A green wind gathered from somewhere. The wind passed through me and gathered at the tip of Ellis’s staff, gradually taking shape.

The wind that had gathered enough circled the staff, and Ellis swung the gathered wind.

The wind blew from the swinging staff. The wind that flew away became a crescent-moon-shaped blade and disappeared into the darkness.

-Kekeke!

-Keeek!!

Only screams echoed through the darkness. Every time a scream was heard, the number of flying arrows and bolas decreased.

“Let’s go, kid”

Lien walked forward, still using his shield to ward off the flying arrows. I followed behind him, my feet moving busily.

As I walked forward, I saw the corpses of goblins lying neatly cut up and lying around, and I gulped. Wizards are truly terrifying beings…

In between, goblins shooting arrows or bolas appeared. Lien passed by, easily killing them by striking their heads with his huge shield.

‘It’s like killing a cockroach… It just looks stronger to hold a weapon.’

When I ran like that and arrived at the destination, there were about 5 goblins.

“There are no more shooters.”

Is it my turn again? I blocked the swing of the goblin that charged at me with a club with my shield, then struck its head with my short sword and killed it.

The goblin, who was trying to stab with his spear, struck in vain. He dodged to the side and then dug in to decapitate him.

The remaining three goblins hesitated for a moment at the sight, but then rushed at him all at once.

“Hoo…!”

Before being hit with a club, I killed the goblin by hitting its head with my shield like Lien had shown me earlier.

“Huh, that’s pretty good.”

The goblin that didn’t miss the moment dug in, but my sword was much faster. I stabbed the short sword deep into the stomach and killed the one behind it in one go.

“Hoo…”

The rather long and drawn-out battle was over. I sat down, unable to overcome the fatigue that was creeping up on me.

As soon as I sat down, I heard Kiel’s voice behind me.

“Hey! Lien, I told you not to jump out first! ”

“I’ve already sorted it all out.”

“What…? Oh…it’s pretty good?”

Kiel looked at the corpse of the goblin that had been lying there and exclaimed in admiration.

Kiel looked at me as if he found me strange, even though I was exhausted. Then Chloe walked over and held out her hand to help me up.

“Quickly…quickly let’s go out…it’s too hard…”

“Okay, let’s do that… I’m already vibrating like a rotten goblin.”

So we walked out of the cave.

***

Ta-da-dak-

We could hear the crackling of firewood. We were so tired that we couldn’t go straight to the city, so we decided to rest for the night near a cave.

“You little brat, you’re pretty good.”

Lien handed me a glass of wine made from sheep’s milk.

“Ah… I…”

“This is a home-made liquor. You deserve to drink it.”

“… I don’t really like alcohol… so I’m going to go to bed now.”

Actually, I enjoy drinking, but I don’t know what to do with myself when I’m drunk, and more than anything, my back aches and I just want to rest.

After spreading out my sleeping bag a little distance away from the group and about to go inside, I heard a rustling sound behind me.

“Huh…?”

“Ah, I’m going. I…”

The ridiculous cone-shaped hat, the suspiciously rounded cane, it was Ellis.

“What are you doing…”

“You look very tired, no? ”

Ellis took a step forward.

“Can I give you a massage?”
