Chapter 5: Eldion, The Beastman's Kingdom

I am now sprinting towards the beastman's kingdom.

"System, Can I ask you something?", I ask the system.

*As long as the system can answer the host's question.*

"How many heroes are summoned or reincarnated to this world?", I ask the system.

*There are at least 5 human heroes, 2 beastman heroes, 1 eleven hero, and 2 goblin heroes including yourself.*

Wait... So there is another goblin hero aside from me?

*Yes*

Who's stronger? The other goblin hero or I?

*The host, of course.*

*You are currently the strongest hero. After all, you have the systems supporting your growth. But in terms of level, you have the lowest level among all of the heroes.*

What if I kill all of the heroes and absorb all of their status and skills?

*I think that will be an excellent idea if you want to make your whole race extinct. But you might trigger an S+ Rank task if you do so. It will also benefit the system but I suggest hosts prevent fighting with other heroes as it is better to have more allies than enemies.*

I thought so too.

*Host, I detect a level 55 forest bear near you. You will get stronger if you kill it and level up.*

What are the chances of me defeating it?

*Host has a 100% chance of defeating the level 55 forest bear.*

That's good to hear. I was thinking of inventing a new magic skill so I need a test subject and it looks like the forest bear can be my Guinea pig.

*The system is interested in knowing what magic skill the host has invented.*

*The host has triggered a new task. Will the host accept? Yes or No?*

"Yes."

*Host accepts a D+ Rank Task. The task information will be shown.*

______________________

D+ Rank Task

Completed 0/2

-Defeat the Level 55 Forest Bear.

Reward: All of the Forest Bear's stats but the Host will not recieve any exp. A random skill from the Forest Bear will be awarded if the Host can defeat the Forest Bear in one attack.

-Impress the system with the Host's newly invented magic skill.

Reward: A random epic skill

______________________

The task rewards are tempting. It motivates me to accomplish it.

*Of course! The system will provide the hist with a reward according to the task difficulty.*

So I just need to impress the system with my newly invented magic skill? That's easy!

Visualize neverending darkness... Direct it towards the target. Concentrate all of the mana in the magic skill. Cast the magic skill towards the target.

[Abyss Of Darkness]!

The forest bear which is 10 feet tall with orange fur and sharp claws that can tear the surrounding trees is 50 meters away from me.

I cast my magic skill and immeasurable darkness swallows the Forest Bear leaving nothing behind as if it wasn't there, to begin with.

*Ding!*

*Host has acquired a new skill.*

*Ding!*

*Host has accomplished the D+ Rank task.*

*Will the host accept the task rewards? Yes or No?*

"Yes."

*Host has received Berserk skill, A random epic skill, +550 Attack stats, +600 Defense stats, +100 Speed stats, +50 Intelligence, +25 Wisdom stats, +50 Luck stats.*

*The system suggests the host check the host's status.*

"Status.", I chant.

*Will the host use the random epic skill?*

"Maybe later. I'll use it when I'm facing danger or something.", I answer the system.

*The host is only 10km away from the Eldion Kingdom. The system suggests the host start moving and head towards the kingdom. The estimated time for the host to reach there is 30 seconds.*

That fast? I did obtain some Speed stats plus it was multiplied by 5 since I got the buff for being a hero.

I sprinted towards the kingdom and the system was right as it only took me 30 seconds to reach the Eldion Kingdom.

*The host has arrived in the Eldion Kingdom. The system suggests the host enter the palace of the beastman king so that the host can meet the other beastman heroes.*

Where is the goblin hero?

*The goblin hero is also inside the palace.*

I'll head there.

I enter the kingdom's entrance and I meet some guards who stop me from entering and they ask me for my purpose of visiting the kingdom.

"What's your purpose for entering the kingdom?", Guard 1 interrogates me.

"I am here to meet the king.", I answer the guard.

"Do you think the king is someone you can easily meet? Unless you're one of the heroes, then the king won't be interested in meeting you.", Guard 2 says to me.

"I am one of the heroes. I am the goblin hero and I am here to meet the king!", I answer the guard.

"You? The goblin hero? The goblin hero has long entered the kingdom. Do you think you can fool me you damn imposter!", Guard 1 says to me.

*The system suggests the host kill this guard and cause trouble so that the king will know your presence.*

Do I need to cause trouble? I'll listen to the system as the system is always right, maybe.

Visualize a meteor shower falling from the sky. Concentrate all of the mana into the spell. Direct it towards the kingdom. Cast the magic spell.

[Meteor Shower]!

*Ding!*

"Host has acquired a new skill."

Countless meteors are falling towards the kingdom. From the looks of it, the kingdom's mages have cast a magic barrier to defend the kingdom from the meteor shower.

*The system suggests the host dispel the magic barrier as the host can perform magic dispel.*

[Magic Dispel]!

The magic barrier is dispelled. The meteors start to fall into the kingdom grounds and explode. The meteors destroyed a lot of houses in the kingdom and it even destroyed half of the kingdom.

A half-human and half-wolf clad in armor and a half-human and half-lion approaches me while holding their sword. They seem to be wary of me. Someone who I think is the goblin hero is with the two demi-humans. A half-human and half tiger wearing a crown in his head also approach me and the three people with him are guarding him.

Someone who I think is the king talks to me.

"Why did you destroy half of my kingdom? Speak! What are your intentions of destroying my kingdom!?", The king furiously questions me.

*The system detects 2 beastmen heroes, 1 goblin hero, and the kingdom's king. The host has a 55% chance of defeating them.*

"I am here to meet the king!", I answer the king.

"I am the king. If you wanted to, you could have entered my kingdom. Why didn't you do so instead of bringing destruction to my kingdom!", The king says.

"Your dumb guards won't let me enter the kingdom and meet you. Blame it on the two of them!", I say and point my fingers towards the two guards who are at the kingdom's entrance.

The king goes to the guards and questions them on why I wasn't allowed to enter the kingdom.

"That brat says he's the Goblin Hero even though the goblin hero is already inside the kingdom. That brat is impersonating the goblin hero!", Guard 1 answers the king and points his finger towards me.

"Didn't you know about the prophecy?! There are 5 human heroes, 2 beastman heroes, 1 eleven heroes, 1 demon hero who betrayed his kind, and lastly the 2 goblin heroes!!! Only one of them entered the kingdom so it is expected that there is another one who will meet me!!! You dumb ass is the reason why my kingdom is destroyed!!! You two are fired and to be executed later of dishonoring a hero!!!", The king furiously yelled at the two guards.

The king approaches me.

"I'm sorry if the guards didn't let you enter. I will pass a blind eye on your destruction to my kingdom and I will also give money as compensation. Please don't destroy the rest of my kingdom!", The king says and bows to me.

"I will accept it. Thank you very much and don't worry as I won't continue to destroy your kingdom.", I say to the king.

"Thank you for understanding, hero-sama. I will invite you to the palace after it is fixed. You can stay at the Inn where the other heroes are staying. I hope all of you heroes will be allies in the future!", The king says.

The king then leaves with some guards accompanying him while the heroes choose to stay.

The heroes start to approach me.

*The system detects the possibility of 100% on the possibility that the heroes will converse with the host.*

Looks like I will chat with the heroes for a while.
