10 Chapter 10: Strange Developmen (2/2)

He suddenly kicked off the ground and rushed toward the small goblin, his hair fluttered in the wind as he approached the goblin. In response, the green creature looking at Wilhelm mockingly and brandished its weapon, heaving it diagonally.

The goblins physical prowess was incredible, his cleave wafted up a strong wind, however, Wilhelm merely halted his movement at the last moment, taking 1 step back. The stone sword barely missed Wilhelm by an inch and stabbed into the ground.

Wilhelm smiled and took a step forward, stabbing his dagger into the same hole that he had made previously. This time, however, it went even deeper and blood spurted out like a fountain. The shocked goblin applied pressure to its wound and opened its eyes wide whilst staring incredulously at Wilhelm.

It took a few steps back and tripped on its feet. It attempted to call out for help, but only the sound of gurgling echoed out. Slowly, the life within the goblins eyes faded and the entire surroundings turned silent.

None of the other goblins made another sound as they observed Wilhelm, their curiosity piqued. They were a fighting race, as such, they respected those with strength, and preyed upon those that were weak.

The goblins that were once laughing looked at Wilhelm with excitement, they were breathing heavily at the thought of battling him themselves. Suddenly, within the crowd, a taller and more robust goblin walked out.

Contrary to the other goblins, this one possessed facial hair and much sturdier muscles. He even wielded a more advanced spear, a sly smile playing on his lips. He pointed at Wilhelm with his thick finger and then patted himself on the chest and spread his arms wide.

Wilhelm's eyes dilated, 'is he trying to recruit me to his clan?' he thought inwardly. His shock clearly displayed itself on his face as his jaw dropped whilst staring at the very large goblin.

To test the waters, Wilhelm nodded his head with a twitching smile, to which the goblin leader beat his chest and laughed. Following which, the rest of the goblins laughed and approached Wilhelm with smiles on their faces.

”Now this is a strange development…” Wilhelm whispered, but his thought process was soon interrupted by a notification.
