Everyone was staring at my mouth opening. In that gap, I slowly began to utter words from my mouth.
” Our . . . Blood Dagger Clan will . . . .”
Our Blood Dagger Clann will go together with the Green Goblin Clan of the West. ”
Everyone had an amused face. Amongst them was Storm Shadow who had asked me to come along opening his mouth as his long fangs stuck out. It was truly an expression of curiosity rather than being displeased.
” Interesting. Warrior who has lost one’s honor. Blood Dagger. May I ask why? ”
There was a reason I had thought of in advance, but there was no way I could speak of it plainly. After briefly staring at Storm Shadow, I was able to come up with a reasonable explanation for him to accept and began to speak.
” The woman of the humans knows me who have lost one’s honor very well. Also, I was able to learn the harshness and cruelty of the environment here thanks to the exam of Chief Patriarch Agar. The weak goblins with their bodies were able to establish their own flag on the continent. I am curious of how they were able to do so. ”
As if convinced, he soon nodded his head, and opened his mouth after a few seconds.Rread latest chapters at novelhall.com
” I think I know what you want. Warrior who has lost one’s honor, Blood Dagger. ”
My words were plausible, but the fact that I had chosen the Green Goblin Clan wasn’t just for that reason. Of course, it would be true if what I spoke earlier were true, but there were more plausible reasons. The east was the best, and the north was not bad at all.
Despite all that, there were reasons why I had chosen to go with the Green Goblins.
The first reason was because I know the western city very well. I have heard about the situations of the North and East, but if I were to actually head over, the probability of me starting from scratch was extremely high. No matter how much I covet the Slave Shaman and the Orc Hunter, it’s only possible once they actually recognize me as their ‘ chief. ‘ No one would swear allegiance to a young hatchling like me. Especially in the case of the Slave Shaman, I didn’t have the power to investigate that small city. It would be best to grow a bit stronger beforehand.
The second reason was the probability of possibly meeting Choi Seulgi. If Choi Seulgi’s words were true that she had adventured for one-two years after completing the tutorial, there could be the chance of me actually meeting Choi Seulgi. Everyone already knows that the West is where beginners train and hunt. If I really am able to meet Choi Seulgi, I’m not sure how I would respond, but I want to see how she’s faring.
And the last reason was to wipe out the fast growing rookies in the Western City who had developed quickly for 10 years before.
‘ I’ll clash against them anyways. ‘
One way or the other, I will fight the Saint Sword. I will clash against the Western city ‘ Aia ‘ managed by the Saint Knights Order anyhow. I already have a trivial desire for vengeance as a Green Skin and human. I will soon aim for the Saint Sword surrounded by countless ‘strong’ opponents. I will also target the Western city Aia. I need to reduce the fine Summoned as much as possible.
‘ A special [ Unique Ability ] that allows one to use magic and sword simultaneously. Magic Swordsman Kim Donghyun. The Wind Magician who can relentlessly send her opponents flying with her high mana, Lee Jiyeon, and the high HP Saint Knight, the famed Byuk Woongjin. ‘
And the other so-called rankers included with those names.
‘ I must kill them all. ‘
There was no personal grudge against them. You can consider them elite since they did pass the elite courses. It’s not as much as the Queen of the north, but they were the strong I’ve looked up to ten years ago. I wanted to see how I am now against them.
While I was thinking of useless thoughts, I could hear Chief Patriarch Agar’s voice once again.
” Interesting. How interesting. It was always like this, but these brothers are very interesting. Follow me, my brothers. I have a present for you. ”
” Strength, Wisdom and Honor. ”
I did expect internally whether the Patriarch would give out something. It was strange how I wasn’t excited at the thought of receiving something.
Soon, a group began to move from the spot again behind the Chief Patriarch. As if seeing this as an opportunity, the Green Goblin Clan’s chief furtively withdrew his body backwards and slowly opened his mouth. He was wearing a white robe, but what was more of a lasting impression were his teeth.
” Is there another reason why you selected our clan? Ggiril . . . ”
” The reason is the same as before. Green Goblin. I thought there was something to learn from. ”
” Ggirik Ggirik ! Good. To teach. To learn. That is precisely a wise Green Skin. ”
From the mood, it seems that they have never received the selection of the brothers. It seems there were none that chose to leave with them considering the other Ogres or Werewolves, and the Orcs.
He smiled as he looked at me with his small fang.
” You can look forward to it. Friend. ”
” I look forward to it. Brother. ”
After concluding the short conversation, I couldn’t help while standing in front of the cave-like place but smile with the sounds from within.
Mev and Jung Hayeon, without me telling them, roughly knew where we were heading seeing the boisterous Green Goblins. I do not know why, but they were very joyfully nodding their heads as Mev’s expression looked as if my decision was rational. No, rather it was an expression of ‘ that’s our Chief. ‘ It was that kind of expression I think.
” Get the food. Prepare the water ! ”
” We will go together with the Green Goblin Clan. ”
” Blood Dagger Clan and Green Goblin Clan will go together ! ”
The other guys were extremely excited as they were wondering about the new land. When I was finished organizing the preparations along with the five goblin siblings, it was then I heard.
” Blood Dagger. ”
I turned my head toward the sound of the voice, and standing in front of me was Goff. With over 100 days of being together with him, the affection that we shared was very high. It seems that he came in search of me to say goodbye, so I placed my baggage on the floor and began to walk slowly towards Goff.
” Goff. ”
Calling his name, he nodded his head and opened his mouth once again.
” We have been together for a long time. We fought together, slept together, and acted together. It might not have been a long time . . . I . . . I think of you as an honest brother. ”
” I am of the same. Goff. We might not share blood, but I see you as my brother. ”
Afterwards, he tried to say something, but funny enough, the words didn’t come out well. I felt like I knew what he wanted to say, so I stared at Goff and opened my mouth.
” Let’s grow stronger and see each other after three years. My brother. Let us set our flags in this continent. ”
Hearing my words, Goff nodded his head. Seeing that, it seems that I was right of what he wanted to say. What a complicated guy.
” Alright. Let’s see each other three years from now, brother. ”
From Goff’s words, I extended my hand without realizing it. It seems I still have that habit from when I was a human. Apparently, the greetings of the Green Skins would have been pounding the chests with one’s hand. However, after he briefly leaned his head to one side for a moment, he cautiously extended his hand.
Soon, I could feel Goff’s heavy strength from his hand. What I felt was Goff’s heat. I began to tighten my grip on the hand slowly, displaying what this action means, and at this time I thought that the way of the humans was not bad either in contrast to the way of the Green Skins.
No more words were needed after that exchange. Goff slowly turned his back and began to return. He will definitely return three years later stronger. I will as well. I also need to be strong in order to fight him. I laughed.
If someone told me ten years ago that I would be sharing friendship with an orc, I would have treated that guy as a freak. But now, I am feeling it. I really see him as my brother.
Not only that.
” Ha . . . ”
I turned my back from Goff and opened my mouth to my other brothers.
” Let’s go. My brothers. ”
” For . . . For Blood Dagger ! ”
As such, our short time in the Land of Glory ended.
TL Afterword
BEAST COMPANIONS ! ! ! Yes ! Well, hopefully the wolf won’t be just a mount, and will be an important companion to MC. Poor Darkmoon though. All he wanted was a wolf, but was rejected.
P.S. God, that parting with Goff was a sadder love story than Twilight (I actually read it so I can confirm). I’m gonna miss this broship so much. And wow, wolf riders. I wonder how cute that wolf is (*drools).
