Chapter 13

” Victory or ! Death ! ”

” Victory or Death ! ”

” Wahhhhhhhhhhh! ”

Those goblins that screamed while running . . . normally I would settle down the Goff Clan and reason with them, but it seems that the stress of over 20 days had given them strength. To be honest, it was hard to stop them since they had so suddenly rushed out.

With the influence of a monster, I too wanted to head into a battleground of that kind of situation as well.

But, since we don’t know what might transpire in the battlefield, we needed at least one clan to maintain our composure. If you see the size of our clan, then our probability of victory is high, but battles are not fought just once.

” Prepare to fight ! ! ! Prepare to fight ! ! ! Monsters ! ! ! It’s monsters ! ! ! ”

Since they advertised like that while rushing in, of course those guys would figure what’s happening. They probably had finished their own defensive preparations. The quality of these humans were definitely different from those of the southern forest. Suddenly, warriors with shields dashed out as archers drew their bows. I can somewhat estimate how many battles they have experienced.

If you were to say that all of the humans in the south were devoured by goblins, then you could say that it was opposite for the North. It seems that the humans have completely swept the goblins. Indeed, if you think this ‘achievement’ was the ability of the Queen of the North, then it becomes even more clear as to why we should preserve our troops in this battle. Just from roughly inspecting them, they’re not normal.

We had some that had evolved into hobgoblins and some other evolved goblins, but they too had warriors that had evolved as well.

” Kyaaaaaaaaa ! ! ! ! ”

First off, we had the advantage in terms of army size. But there’s definitely a variable to this. The variable that determines this is the ‘ magician ‘ of the battlefield. They were encircling the warriors with Guard as they recited their spells.ViiSiit novelbi/n(.)c/(o)m for latest novels

” Fuck . . . their countermeasure was extremely quick. We’re going around. ”

” Understood. Captain ! Ggireuk ! ”

” Mev, you and the other goblin archers draw your bows against the magicians in wait. When we signal, shoot. Even if they don’t accurately hit, just make sure that your arrows fly towards that side. ”

” Okay ! ”

Though I’m not sure what kind of magic they were chanting, the fact of it being Ice Magic was extremely high. No matter how much they had gotten stronger, there should be a limit as to how large the area of attack that magic can be.

Then, they only have two choices to make. Either they aim that magic to the champion or rare monsters . . . or they simply freeze the ground. If it were me, I would definitely select the latter. If the goblins who had lost their rationality charging in front were to fall, then the rear would have casualties as well. Frankly, I don’t care what form the magic appears as.

What our job is to minimize the casualties as much as possible by buying time.

When I thought that the magical force was getting more concentrated towards them, I raised my hand to signal the archer unit to commence.

In that instant, the magicians’ formation who were chanting the magic was starting to hold shape.

” Fire. ”

It was right before they had finished chanting. The large barrage of arrows rained down on them.

Though it was obvious that the warriors were protecting the magicians with their shields, thanks to them, the magicians’ sight were restricted by that defense.

In other words, the minimal sight that magicians needed to secure when they were using magic was constrained. This was a basic tactic that was known once you leave for the continent.

Of course the good magicians that kept on firing magic with their good sense of maintaining sight along with the arrows of humans and the wooden-carved spears of warriors were toppling the front line of the goblins.

But

” Victory or Death ! ”

They could not stop the rush of ‘ Green Skin ‘.

” Charge ! ”

” Charge ! Blood Dagger Clan, Charge ! ”

” Kereeeeeeeeeuk ! ! ”

” Ggirik ! Ggirik ! For the Blood Daggers ! ”

The problem was the rest of these three males, the third, fourth and fifth. These three males were ridiculously not evolving into a higher race as they continued to evolve as an ordinary goblin.

Thanks to them, they were quite strong at this point in time. Goblin – Goblin Warrior – Goblin Intermediate warrior. They continued to take the path of a goblin, and after seeing Mev evolve into a fairy, it seems they were even more fixed on that path. It seems they were truly resolute to be a goblin until the end.

It would rather have been better if they were an assassin or goblin thief . . . was what I thought, but when I saw how they fought, I changed my mind. Although their sizes were small, their battle prowess and abilities were quite fine considering the upper paths they took. As for magic, it seems they could only feel a portion of it.

As if they were the Velociraptor of the Jurassic Age, which were said to be gorgeous on how skillfully they could hunt. What was even more amazing was that these three could fight without having been hit once. Particularly, the best part was that they talked relentlessly without resting.

‘ Ggireuk ! Ggireuk ! Ggireuk ! Our Captain is quite handsome. ‘

‘ By the way, why is this human staggering this much! It doesn’t even look tasty! ‘

‘ Fly. Fly for me ! ‘

They were so noisy that I secretly moved aside.

Other than them, there were a few that had finished their evolutions, but there wasn’t anyone noticeable that had caught my eyes yet. Of course, what was most unfortunate was the mage. Though Jung Hayeon was in a vague position, she had acquired a skill from her race characteristics. But she wasn’t a magician, or a shaman just yet.

If in the recent fight Jung Hayeon was either a magician or shaman, then she could definitely counter against enemy magicians. It was a relief that the recent operation was thwarted well with good timing, for there would be many casualties had it failed.

If I wanted to save more goblins on my side, then it was just more incentive to evolve Jung Hayeon as quickly as possible. I couldn’t help but be locked in thought for a bit.

” Jung Hayeon. ”

” Yes . . . Yes ! Cap . . . Captain. ”

” Did you receive a different quest other than the one we recently received perchance? ”

” No Captain. ”

As expected, there was none. Since she had evolved a bit differently from the rest, it seems that she lost the opportunity to evolve twice. Although it wasn’t bad that she was a rare monster, but the problem was that I needed to raise Jung Hayeon this instant.

I secretly started to stare at Jung Hayeon.

” Is it only possible for you to absorb magic and vitality by having sexual intercourse? ”

” Ah. . . No. If I have body contact . . . then it’s possible as a plant. ”

To suddenly raise the topic of sexual intercourse, Jung Hayeon’s face flushed red. After seeing her, I decided to give her ‘ leech ‘ of experience like how it’s called in those online games.

” Then . . . all the survivors that our clan captured, you kill them all. ”

Though I said it somewhat menacingly, there was no hesitation in Jung Hayeon’s eyes. Rather, there was a look of joy and expectation.

I’m not sure whether she was like that because she had evolved into a monster, or if there was such a tendency from the start, but originally seeing her cry as she plunged a dagger into a survivor before her evolution, I thought that the former answer was already out of the question.

” Yes ! ”

TL Afterword: OMG those three goblins. I can’t wait to see what they’ll become.

And oh my word, I can’t wait to see what Hayeon will evolve to. :O

TL Note: [Edit] Changed mages to shamans, and edited previous chapters of them as well for easier differentiation in comparison to Magicians. ]
