159 Episode 159 "I tried to use" non-lethal weapon "to rescue the hostages with maximum power.".txt (1/2)

”Activate 'Food Negotiation'. ''Yes. Sorry, passing goblin. Please tell us what you're doing in this abandoned village.

............ I'm telling you, child abduction is a felony in human society, right?

”Go...... gob-oh

The 'watchful goblin' that Rita brought in secretly is looking at me with a drawn-out face.

Didn't he say he disappeared into the village, far away from his friends, and pulled a disgruntled look on his face? That 'watchful goblin' is frightened, but he's not angry and out of control. I held out a piece of dried meat to him, he swallowed it down honestly and then began to talk.

I don't want to do this,” he said.

The 'Watchful Goblin' looked around at us and then said.

Wa-Walera ...... ”Forest Goblin” accepts the teachings of the ...... ”Wise Goblin” Noda ......

'The Wise Goblin'?

I looked at everyone.

Cecil, Rita, Aine, Cutlass, and Letitia are nodding their heads.

If no one knows, is it a new kind of demon?

”Are you saying that the 'wise goblin' or ...... is the one who ordered the kidnapping?

The 'Watchful Goblin' nodded at my words.

The ”Wise Goblin” summa said ...... he came to lead the goblins. He said that he would make humans and subhumans fight - and expand the world of demons. I was opposed to this, but I didn't want him to hear ......

Is that 'wise goblin' in that village?

”Now, Inai ...... that man is more than a goblin ...... Moshashitara ......

The goblin said, grinding his fangs together as he rasped.

''...... across the ocean, Irascal ...... may be a badass thing concerning the Demon King ......''

...... I haven't heard that in a long time. His name is ”Maou”.

Thank you. Thank you for the information. If you promise to stop attacking humans from now on, I'll let you go, but what do you say?

'............ uu...... ningen......... ...scary.

The 'Watchful Goblin' thought for a moment and then shook his head.

We're using the ”life bargain” to get information out of him, so this guy can't lie. Let's keep him in custody for now and let him go later.

For now, we know that the Wise Goblin is the master of this hive, and that he is in charge of the kidnapping.

Originally, the master of the lair was the Goblin Lord, but it seems to be under the control of the Wise Goblin. I've been told that this 'Goblin Watcher' is an intelligent goblin and does not like the 'Wise Goblin'.

”I knew those children were kidnapped.

I didn't even know the purpose of The Watchful Goblin.

Children, I'm not wearing a collar. They are not enslaved, apparently.

However, the purpose of making humans and sub-humans fight each other, which may have something to do with the battle between sub-humans going on beyond the forest. It's better to rescue them quickly and secretly return them to the beastman tribe.

''Then we'll start rescuing the hostages. We don't need to annihilate the goblins, so let's sneak in, quickly, and in the shortest possible distance to get to the children.

I said.

”Yes!　Nagi-sama!

Thank you ...... thank you ...... thank you. Master.

It's good for Aine to get a lot of practice in helping the little ones.

'Of course a righteous nobleman would help people.

The Knight Candidate for Justice (formerly) agrees!

'You can't let a situation like that go unnoticed,'

It was unanimous.

I decided on a plan based on the information I got from the 'Watchful Goblin'.

Currently, the only humans and demi-humans in the goblin's nest are those children. And there is no boss and middle boss in this village. We don't have to think about the surrounding damage, and there's no need to save our magic power for the boss fight.

When I return, I'll pass on the information to the Adventurer's Guild and tell them about the ”Wise Goblin”. With the information of the children we saved, the Adventurer's Guild should come to take this nest down seriously.

But before that, we'd better take some damage here too.

Of course, the safety of the children comes first.

”Before we go, Cecil.

Yes. Mr. Nagi.

''What happens when you change the flame magic 'light' to a water attribute?'''

'Yes. ...... 'Light' is a magical light that takes away the enemy's vision. Change it to water, and it becomes something that takes away the enemy's vision with water.

I understand. I'll see you later.

I told everyone the plan.

It will take about 20 minutes.

We need to rescue the kidnap victims and get back to the city as soon as possible.

────────────────────────── ...

”Gobbler!

The master goblin who has been guarding the cage barked at the other goblins.

The reason for this is because the small-fry goblins said they wanted to kill a child.

Totally, it's a problem because the underlings are driven only by instinct.

”............ goboo

...... Hi.

A beast child screamed as he glared inside the cage.

The 'Master Goblin' is a two-faced goblin and has 'Sword Art Skills'. They must know that. The children in the cage are knocking over the beast ears and shaking their tails. Seeing this, the 'master goblin' twists his big mouth and laughs.

To the goblins, people and sub-humans are what they kill.

But these guys in the cage are 'tools'. You don't kill them until you've used them up.

At least that's what the new leader of the goblins, the Wise Goblin, told me.

............ found the land of Kono and Crete. I also defeated the humans who came here ......'

And since the main ”goblin lord” is following, there is no doubt about it.

Now, let's take out more people and subhumans.

To satisfy our instincts. And to expand our territory...

Gob!　A. Gobbledygook!　Gaaaaaah!''

The 'Master Goblin' raised his sword and howled.

Gosu!

”Gov'ah!

Suddenly, the goblin that had been keeping watch tumbled to the ground.

He's not dead. It looks like he was hit on the head with something hard.

”Gobbler? Gogga?

Even the head of the ”master goblin”, who involuntarily shouted, was shocked. For a moment, my vision darkened. It was a lump of water that flew at me.

It was a powerful flight that struck the goblins in the head.

I'm not going to be the only one. No ...... that's not all.

”The source of all life, the flow of water which covers the whole atmosphere.

In the distance, there was a faint voice.

To the ”Master Goblin” it was just a sound, and he didn't know what it meant...

”'Go down to this place and hide your domain in a thick fog of water.

The next moment...

The entire abandoned village that was occupied by the goblins was enveloped in a white mist.

''Gob!　Govt. ────!

The ”Master Goblin” screamed.

Unbelievable.

It only took a few seconds for the abandoned village to be enveloped in a thick white fog. There was no way for the fog to spread like this. And it was too thick. It's as if milk has been poured into it, and I can't even see my own hands.

”Gogua? BOOM? ”Gobuaaah!

In addition, the goblins are screaming.

There's the sound of water. That attack magic is still flying.

But I don't understand. How could they fire accurately in such a fog!

”Gobbleraaaaaah!

The ”Master Goblin” chides the boisterous goblins.

His ears have already caught the sound of the intruder's footsteps. The enemy is coming straight at us.

I'm sure you're not the only one who's creating this thick fog and sending the magic flying.

Boo!　Gov!

Immediately, the ”Master Goblins” call out to the goblins who can move.

Through the white mist, the goblins around them began to gather around them at the sound of their voices.

The purpose of the intruders was probably to recover the children.

But that's no problem.

The goblins have weapons, too. They have armor and shields.
