32 Real danger (1/2)

In a desolate area of the Wasteland was a swamp, the only thing that grows in this place was a type of plant known as a Ferocius Grower, it didn't have many uses and it had the property of devouring every other type of plant in his surroundings and take the place they occupy. Due to this, almost no race wants to live in this place, but there was a species that inhabits this swamp, the goblins.

Goblins were some of the lower life-forms in the Wasteland, their main characteristic was their insatiable lust and rapid growth, so the tribe that habited this swamp had a little over one thousand members. Although goblins could not pose a threat to a rank 2 apprentice, a couple hundred of them could defeat even a pseudo-magus taking into consideration the stupidity of this race and their instincts act of attacking without regard for their life.

Due to the little value the corpse of a goblin has and the fact that there was nothing truly valuable in this place, the swamp was usually a quiet place, but today scream could be heard throw the entire region. A shadow-covered figure moved through the area and the fate of all the goblins that crossed his path was to end with their bodies shattered.

This was not all, chains were moving through the swamp, they were like demon snakes that went through every single living form in their path. All other races would have run seen the fate of their comrades, but the goblins that habited the Westland are almost animals controlled by their instincts so they attacked at the shadow without care for their life. But their acts were useless, when they got to 3 meters of the figure, their bodies were cut in two, as for the ones further away the chains take care of them.

Sophia was a the periphery of the swamp and she was surprised, this display of power was superior to the one any group of pseudo-magus could do, she could not really see Zatiel due to his fast movement and the fact he was in his Shadow form, but she could see the chains and the way that the destroy every single thing in their path and was amazing.

´Someday I will also...´ She clenched her fist as she saw this display of power and their eyes started to shine. But in the next moment, she was startled by those thoughts.

´Since when did I dare to aspire so high,` Since her mutation Sophie has thought herself of someone inferior and her most higher aspiration was going back to normal, so the idea of becoming so powerful that the lives of hundreds could be decided with a movement of her hands as never passed through his head until now. As she was thinking for the reason of her changes a person came to his minds

´It's because of him!´ Her fist gets stronger and the flame of his will burned even brighter.

After a couple of hours, the screams finally stop, the thousands of goblins that once rule this little swamp were all dead and pieces of their bodies were trow all over the place.

Zatiel left the swamp with his usual relaxed expression and came to Sophia.

”Ok then, now his your turn, go and pick the roots of the plants that grow in this place, I just want the red ones, the other has no use,” Zatiel didn't wait for the women to reply before he closes his eyes and sit to meditate.

”Yes, right away... May I ask a question before?” Sophia knows she is not very smart so she is trying to figure out the reason why things happen in her surroundings to develop her abilities.

”You probably wonder why I take such a different approach with the goblins than with the kobolds,” Zatiel didn't even try to subjugate the goblins when he arrives at the swamp and started to kill right away, if he was someone who enjoys killing it would make sense, but by his interaction with the kobolds, Sophia knew that this was not the case.

Sophia only noded, already accustomed to her thoughts being revealed.

”Easy, they were not worth it, if the kobolds use that technique correctly they would become very useful, but the goblins are too stupid and savages, making use of them, even a temporary one, a huge problem. Since the energy usage to kill them is less than the one used to subjugate and make them harvest the materials, it is better just to finish them off.” Although killing just because it saves time sounds cold, for Zatiel was a normal way of seeing things.
