13 Confrontation With The Village Head!

Chapter 13: Confrontation With The Village Head!

The Village Head was casually strolling the village while looking for this so-called evolved goblin.

'Ugh! These smelly vermins, can't they do something about the state of the village?' He squinted his nose as he manipulated mana to form a veil that kept the smell away from him.

'I should do something about this soon... Forget it, it will return to this state in a matter of hours.'

'Now, where is this Gobutarou, I will be able to make some progress in my plans after 10 years of stagnation if I'm able to get him to work for me.' he thought.

Taking a turn he finally saw what he came here for.

'Found you! Let me see you for who you truly are, [Appraisal]!' The Shaman smiled evilly as he finally found Draco, he immediately used his skill on him and a small surge of information entered the goblin's brain, what he saw surprised him.

'Huh? A Demonic Goblin? Did he meet some... old demon after being killed? But I've never heard of demons in this forest. and even if there is, why would he turn him into a Demonic Goblin? What would he gain from that? Furthermore, how could he directly reach level 8 in so little time? And How could he still look like a regular goblin? This is weird, very weird! I will try to talk to him now and keep surveilling him constantly so he doesn't try anything funny.' The Shaman's brain ran a mile a minute as he tried to make sense of Draco's existence.

Fortunately for Draco, [Appraisal] did not give detailed information like his Analysis, and strangely enough, when he transformed into a goblin the name that showed up wasn't his but Gobutarou, saving his true identity as an infiltrator from being discovered.

As The Shaman was approaching Draco he thought: 'Now the true question is, What's the influence of the demon on him? Does he control him, or does he have free will? In any case, demons are not as benevolent as to actually save him on a whim.'

Draco was still walking leisurely thinking about if he should settle here or go back to his protected little big tree, and that's when he noticed the Red Fate Line changing positions and coming closer, he followed it and turned his head to look at... his doom.

'Shit, Shit, Shit! How did he find me so fast! I didn't even do anything yet!' Draco was scared shitless as he looked at the Shaman.

"You there." Shamuji called as he seized him up.

"Gobu... tarou... right? What's a Demonic Goblin like you returning to do here? Too attached to this little village of mine? Or do you have other... Intentions." He squinted his eyes as he looked at Draco intently.

'Fuck how did he find out? Wait he had that [Appraisal] skill, Damn It I never thought he could use it on me I should have upgraded my [Appraisal Obstruction] I should have been more cautious! Damnit!' Draco cursed himself as he contemplated what to do next.

'What do I do now?! If he finds out I want to kill him he might burn the heck out of me right now! I can't even outrun him! R-right! I can act like the goblin I Devoured.' Draco's mind ran a mile a second as he finally bowed his head not daring to look in Shamuji's eyes and said.

"Skree! V-village head! I'm just minding my business and wanted to return to my home to rest after coming back! I hope I didn't offend you in any way." He said rapidly.

"Skree? Why are you acting like a lowly goblin? aren't you an evolved one?" The Village Head squinted his eyes more and moved closer to Draco as his left hand which wasn't holding his staff was ready to unleash its fire any second.

'Shit! I was too impulsive! I didn't know evolved goblins didn't Skree anymore!' Draco was shivering in fear internally as he didn't fail to notice Shamuji's left hand.

'I'm getting burned to ash!' Tears almost flew out as he tried to think of anything he could do next.

"Anyway, That's unimportant. Why is your... Skin, hmm, green instead of black? If I remember correctly... It shouldn't be so?" He talked slowly as he searched his memory of facts about Demonic Goblins.

'Oh lord! What do I say!'

"I-I don't know, Village Head! When I woke up I was already like this! I felt that I became stronger but I was scared of losing my life so I returned quickly!" He replied rapidly.

"Hmm... You suddenly started talking normally. Are you... Hiding something from me?"

*Fshhh*

Fire burst out as Draco nearly ran for his life before it went out as suddenly as it came.

"Hahahahaha! Now, Now! Don't be scared I just wanted to know if you're controlled or not, If you're able to speak like this then you aren't a mindless puppet and a pretty smart fella at that." Shamuji suddenly laughed and said.

'Phew, Thank god!' Draco sighed in relief as he thought.

"What do you think about working for me? I can provide you a house near mine, Beauties, Riches, and even a Body Training Technique like the goblin soldiers', all you have to do is serve me and when I tell you to do something for me don't refuse." Shamuji wore a warm smile that sent shivers down Draco's back as he slid him an olive branch.

"I Gladly Accept, Village Head!" Without thinking for a second Draco accepted.

'What a joke! I'd rather smash my head than refuse, He will kill me wihtout batting an eye. By the way, why did he suddenly start talking like a cultivation novel elder? Oh well, as long as I don't die he can't even act as a jade bauty.' Draco shook his head and thought.

"Hahahahaha! Very good, Very Good! Follow me, young one! And keep in mind, I don't like smelly vermins, and those who enter my house without permission." His voice suddenly turned cold as he warned.

"Don't Worry, Village Head! I will wash myself 10 times and Knock 100 times before entering." Draco said in a hurry.

'Oh well if he acts like a sect elder I wil act like a good lackey.' He thought.

"Hahahaha! No need to go that far, Anyway, let's hur-" Just as he was talking a goblin came running and shouted.

"Scree! Village Head, Village Head! Emergency!"
