Chapter 79 Past Fear

For days on end, the four Goblin generals had stayed on the upper floors and refused to leave without having the Goblin with them.

The first and fourth general stuck themselves to the door, waiting for a movement to be in sight, while the second and third general went around scavenging the tunnels in search of the Goblin's whereabouts.

Two Goblins, one with a bow and the other holding a shield and a long sword, walked towards the direction where another two Goblins, one empty handed and the other holding a two edged axe.

"so, did you find him" (first general).

when the two Goblin had gotten to where the other two were sitting at, the empty handed Goblin popped up the question to which the two Goblins had no reply to.

"i still think it's a waste of effort for us staying here and monitoring a gate we can't even open" (Second general).

"apart from your instinctual feeling, there is no other claim that can back up your words of the Goblin being behind the gate, so why should we have to stay and watch it" (second general).

"I have also grown tired of having to fight the lower lifeforms on this floor, they put up less fight and are no fun that way" (Third general).

"if it is a fight you desire, why don't you take it up with me" (first general).

"i quite like my head where it is currently placed" (third general).

"i don't think you mean that well enou!" (first general).

"over there, there is something happening" (fourth general).

The first general was not allowed to complete his statement when the fourth general had butt in, with his hand pointing towards the gate.

The four Generals had waited all this while, hoping for the gate to open, and finally, it is finally displaying some form of response.

stormy wind blew, and the gate that had been sealed shut all this while, slowly begins to pull itself backwards.

The four Generals now on their feet, eagerly awaits what is to come from inside the gates with a wild smile on their faces.

The wind had dispersed, and the inside of the gate was now within sight.

What they saw when the gate finally opened, was fire circling in one position, stuck to the door. They could not see what was beyond the door, as the circling fire completely blocked the view.

The four of them, felt a presence but saw nothing, until they brought their heads downward.

Standing at the center of the gate they had shifted their heads to, is the Goblin the four Generals had been desperately searching for all this while.

His figure was hazy, and they could not fully make it out, but the first general was assured it was the Goblin because he had the same smell as the Goblin they were after.

"I told you, my senses never lies" (first general).

The first general turned his head towards the second and third general and wordily mocks them.

"fourth general" (first general).

"i am on it" (fourth general).

The fourth general, on his way to go and grab unto the Goblin, suddenly stopped.

His reasons for stopping was none other than the Goblin.

The Goblin setting his eyes on the four Goblin generals had took to the floor, folded himself together and holding unto his head with an act of fear emerging from his actions.

The four Generals seeing what the Goblin was doing, were perplexed by his behavior upon sighting them.

The first Goblin general and fourth Goblin general were especially more dumbfounded by the Goblin.

The Goblin the fourth general knew of was a goblin with balls and ego, unwilling to bend and unshaken by the tortures he had been put through.

The first general wasn't as much surprised as the fourth general was, because he had seen the Goblin cower in fear of the two Goblin blob monster.

Although he wasn't as much surprised, but he was certainly taken aback by what the Goblin is doing.

As for the other second and third generals, they were just as shocked as the rest of them was.

Even though they have yet to have personal moments with the Goblin, they have seen him boldly and bravely confront their king with confidence brimming within him.

They had also watched his fight with the orc champion and his performance, it was not a performance they would rate as a worthy one, it was more of a performance that passed the level of entertaining them.

That same Goblin, is now cowering in fear of them without being touched or spoken to, a mere sighting with them was enough to leave him so miserable and broken.

"hahahahaha..." (second general).

"is this it?...., is this the reason why our king sent all four of us to this floor"..... (second general).

The second general was quick to make his comment on the Goblin with no grounds to hold back on.

"looking at him closely, he does not even bear the resemble of the Goblin we are after" (third general).

The wind had fully dispersed, and not only his figure could be seen, but even the color of his body was now visible to the four Generals.

They looked and noticed that he indeed looked different from the rest of them.

As goblins, green skin was a common trait among them, joined with them having huge body figure.

And even though their body figures is not as huge as the Orcs, it is still huge enough to not be comparable to what they are presented with.

"look, he looks nothing like a goblin especially with that pointy horn on his forehead and his body is so small" (third general).

"he must be from another specie of monster" (second general).

"no, his appearance might have changed very much, but he still can't fool my smelling senses" (first general).

"he is no doubt, the Goblin we have been looking for all this while" (first general).

"first general, are you really sure about that?....., look at him, why would our king send out the four of us to capture him, him....." (second general).

with frustration, the second general kept pointing at the cowering Goblin while also reminding and demanding from the first general, legible reasons as to why the four of them would be needed to catch the coward before them.

"I am certain he is the one, but I am also confused at what is going on with him right now" (first general).

"when I played with him before, I did notice an hint of cowardice within him, but that was when he saw the blob Goblins" (first general).

"i assumed he felt a sense of terror towards the blob Goblins, so I used that against him. For this case however, I am speechless at what I am beholded with" (first general).

"you know what will be fun, we taking our time to play with him more, I really want to dissect his body and reassemble it back" (third general).

"you will do no such thing. Fourth general go fetch him, weak or not, we are taking him straight to our king" (first general).

"our return to him is overdue" (first general).
