Chapter 19 Better than a goblin (2/2)

Saying his second sentence, Shaar turned around and pointed behind him at that captive goblin first: “Soso!”

Then referred that piled up luggage as: “Soso!!”

Finally pointing at the pitiful creature: “Soso!!!”

Focusing on these goblins again, Shaar shouted: “I, soso! Chaji! Woke! Goblin, do not kill! Ouke!!”

The pitiful creature could not understand this sentence at all and was shocked in her heart: This hillbilly could unexpectedly speak the goblin language?!

Hearing his declaration, these goblins surprisingly calmed down immediately. Several of the bigger goblins who looked like leaders stared carefully at the pitiful creature and then looked at the prisoner and at last at the luggage. Finally, they started to whisper to each other and discussed something.

Getting somewhat impatient, Shaar pointed at that goblin captive and screamed: “Soso! Chaji!”

The goblins shook their heads.

Shaar pointed at that pile of luggage: “Soso! Chaji!”

The goblins continued to shake their heads.

Finally he pointed at the pitiful creature again: “Soso! Chaji!”

Hesitating, the goblins carefully looked at the pitiful creature again and after a while, shook their heads once more.

Shaar seemed disappointed and lifted his axe while turning around.

Returning to the pitiful creature side, she immediately started asking: “What did you say to them? You could actually speak the goblin language?”

Shaar looked at pitiful creature with one eyes and with a somewhat discontented appearance: “I can a bit, hmpf……”

“What is the meaning of soso?”The pitiful creature asked: “You pointed at us and shouted soso a moment ago ……”

“The meaning of soso is spoils of war, captive, gold coins, cattles, pigs, horses, domestic animals, weaponry and also cargo ……All the things that have being captured can be called soso.” Shaar replied.

The pitiful creature’s face showed a somewhat ugly expression: “What about chaji?”

“Exchange!” Shaar snorted: “Woke means passing and a moment ago I said that I would exchange my spoils of war to them if they allowed me to pass through their territories. Well……Unfortunately, they actually think that the spoils of war were unexpectedly too inferior and are not willing to comply…… Take a look, not even the goblins wanted someone as ugly as you.”

Finishing his sentence, he sighed showing that he regretted it very much.

The pitiful creature froze for a moment and then completely exploded!

“WHAT!!! You wanted to give me to the goblins?!”

Jumping in the air, ignoring her injured leg, she started to hammer that bastard Shaar with her fists. With one slap, Shaar’s palm sent her to the ground and he showed her a disdained look: “What are you shouting for!”

The pitiful creature started crying out of anger. She knew that she could not beat that hillbilly and released her anger by slapping the ground. Her tears flowed in streams.

This bastard! Hillbilly! Country bumpkin! Illiterate!

At home, everyone treated the pitiful creature as the most precious treasure. Something so precious that they feared it would start breaking when holding in their hand, starts melting when they kept in their mouth. All these men admired and treated her as a peerless treasure……This hillbilly, his rude and violent behaviour could be forgiven, however he unexpectedly sold her to a crowd of goblins?!

Moreover….. The most annoying thing was that he complained that she could not be sold to a good price!!

“Hillbilly! Just kill me already!”Showing her backbone, the pitiful creature held up her head and declared: “I prefer to die rather than being sold to those goblins by you!”

“Idiot.”Shaar was not angry but instead smiled: “Are you an idiot? Naturally I would not sell you. This is to test those fellows.”

Crouching down, he whispered to her:”I deliberately tested out their bottom line! I wanted to get a better understand of how strong their tribe’s strength was! In general, for a small tribe the pricetag was enough to make them comply. Beside me, all the items that I carried would be given to them and my luggage was also very big. Even if you are not worth much, the wolf skin and the metal equipments are well regarded by the goblins. If it’s a small tribe, they would already have happily complied. However, since they do not comply now, the only explanation is that their tribe is quite big and have a little strength, therefore was not moved by all my items.”

Hearing this, the pitiful creature suddenly turned her tears into a smile: “You, you are really only testing them?”

Shaar nodded and stared the pitiful creature in the eyes. With a face full of honesty and he replied: “Of course! Even if I had to drop this entire luggage….. How could I be willing to sell you?!”

This sentence immediately made the pitiful creature’s heart felt better, but Shaar’s next sentence instantly destroyed her short gained happiness turning it into anger again.

“I still have to look for that dragon! Good bait is hard to find. Although this goblin is good as well, it runs very slow and moreover it is too ugly. Perhaps the dragon would not like to eat it. Therefore, to be fair, you are much better than a goblin!”

God could testify! For her entire life, the pitiful creature had listened to innumerable flattery and praises full of sweet words and honeyed phrases. Some people praised her appearance. Some said she was more charming than the moon goddess. Other praised her beauty, which would even made the rose change colors. Some people even compared her with the stars……

However no one actually told her these damn words of praise to her:

” you are much better than a goblin……”
