4 About goblins

He grabbed the creature standing in front of him by the collar and shouted at his face, "Who are you!? And why are you here? Explain all the things you did to me!"

The hood of the robe dropped from the creature's head, revealing a goblin, looking a little older than Frigs, "May we talk after you release my collar? Please, thank you"

Frigs gritted his teeth and stared right at him for a few seconds before releasing his hand from the collar. The goblin lightly smiled, "Now, let me introduce myself, I am Jiok, the grand magician of the goblin"

Frigs was about to shout at him once again, but Jiok cut him off, "Calm down, I am not here to fight. But I require your help in this world, that's why I brought you here. And I know the moment where I explain all of it to you would come"

Jiok cleared his throat, "Long time ago, approximately 700 years ago, goblins were feared. We are scary looking, many in number despite our low endurance. Even dragons would move their nest if goblins invaded them. But when someone, people said the son of heaven, came down from the sky, they began to invade us. One by one, our kingdoms fall, our homes burnt down, our race crushed. The survivors became slaves or pets for the humans and because of that, we evolved. Slowly but surely, we came small and cute looking, but I knew goblin's instinct is still sharp"

Frigs cut him off, "What's that got to do with me being on this world?"

Jiok smiled before continuing his story, "I started a rebellion, underground network. Someday, we will be known as the superior race. But I need your help, based on your… internet browsing history. You know well about weapons, strategy and tactics of war. If the goblins would like to win, we would surely need your help"

Frigs placed his hand on his face and chuckled before putting a serious face, "So, you kidnapped me to this world and expect me to give my help and knowledge, all to you? Just so you can be the superior in this world?"

Jiok nodded, and Frigs burst out laughing when he heard it, "How can someone be so stupid that they expect me to willingly fight against my own race?"

He laughed on and on for about a minute. His eyes couldn't see the surroundings because of the tears. But when he calmed down and wiped the tears off of his eyes, he was surprised by the sight of Jiok, kowtowing on him on the ground while muttering, "Please sir, I really need your help"

Suddenly, his memories flashed upon him since the beginning he became a goblin. Captured, auctioned, sold and pitted against other goblins. That's when he realized, 'It made sense that the goblin wanted to rebel against the humans… the treatment they got is far worse than a minimum wage worker…'

He smirked, "Well, sure, but when all of this is over, I want to return to my world and possibly write a novel about this all. On top of that, I want you, to come with me!"

(The guy in the story is totally not me}

Jiok raised his head up, his teary eyes are visible, he lunged forward and hugged Frigs's legs, "Thank you, sir! Thank you! Even if you want weapons, the goblins kingdoms will give it to you!"

All of a sudden, the black room disappeared and Frigs found himself inside the carriage he was in with the Butler in front of him bowing at him, "I thank you for your cooperation and will be in your debt forever. Please call me Alfred while I'm in this form to not raise any suspicion"

Frigs nodded and the carriage suddenly stopped. The butler made a hand gesture to exit the carriage and Frigs does just that. What greeted him was the sight of a big mansion with a wide front yard and a fountain in the middle of it.

He was amazed at it and kept looking at it as he walked around it and into the house. But when he entered the house, he was more amazed, a big room, fully furnished, with paintings on the wall and chandelier.

The only thing that was annoying was a little boy, sitting on the floor with the three little goblins, looking like they just played a little match of WWE smackdown with the boy. But what surprised him were the boy's words, "Let's play 1 round of WWE smackdown once again!"

He clenched his fist and slowly approached the boy with the intention of beating him, but Alfred/Jiok stopped him. The butler grabbed him by the arm and led him to up stair, then up another stairwell and up another stairwell before entering a room.

The room where he was greeted by another sight of a magnificent room, but this time, it felt a little different to him. The room itself was a kind of dark with a minimum amount of lightning from the window and it gave him a weird feeling.

In front of him was a desk, and a chair facing out of the window, 'There is someone there?'

Turned out, he was right. The chair slowly rotated and revealed a human with a black hair and moustache, "Oh, there's a goblin here"

He pulled a small knife from his pocket and examined it for a few seconds. Frigs was genuinely scared at this point, 'Does he hate goblin? Why Jiok brought me here then? He said the goblins needed my help, didn't they?"

The man smirked from his chair and held the knife like a dart before aiming right at Frigs, still with a wide smirk on his face. Frigs began producing cold sweat at that moment. He wanted to move, but couldn't for some reason.

The smirk on the face of the man suddenly disappeared and Frigs felt relieved. But the man suddenly threw the small knife at him.
