5 23-26

Day 23- today marks the first 'Goblin community cup!!!!' Which is the system Rou developed to establish a basic social hierarchy which is determined by strength. I know this will be further developed later to include people with more valuable skills like ji and the human women.

After a round of sparring it was established that first place is Rou and second place is me gobujin. When we had our fight I was able to win but I surrendered when he summoned that spear that made my spine tingle. Kichi got third, Mi got fourth and gobue got fifth. The rest was determined among the regular goblins but I paid little attention to it.

After are hierarchy was established I sat and listened to Ji's teachings off the forest hoping to learn something. I actually gained {forager trait, entompopgahy trait and breeder trait gained}. He had lots of stories to tell and offered me berries and bugs from his personal stash. He had a lot of stuff collected and preserved in salt and honey depending on what it was. Sneaky old man.

Though when honeyed insects appeared Rou senses them and asked for some as well. Ji simply gave the same lecture on survival lessons to him.

Day 24- Rou started a damn forest fire which is probably the reason smokey the bear shows up to beat his ass before he evolves into an ogre! On the plus side I did gain some hell spider meat {van der waals walking trait gained} this trait allowed me to walk crawl without using mana but mana made it more smooth.

Still though I smacked him upside the head for that. Wish I had a chancla for that! He then sampled the delicacy and spewed his string on Kichi's face. My wording off that did not please Mi and E. Rou couldn't look me in the eye today while he practised his thread and silk weaving.

We then found a hoard of piggies heading towards a mine. The leader of them was an orc general based on his shiny armour and nice looking axe. I felt an urge to fight him and smash that armour. Am I a fanalis or a saiyan because I can't tell. Ji said that monsters that had mana experienced personality changes like hoarding and fighting more frequently.

We found four orcs on the way back so we chose to get some lunch. MI and E fired to bolts into their heads while Rou and I slit the throats of the other two. We dragged the bodies away and burned their clothes, bacon smells so good but their clothes smell like piss. I already gained traits form orcs before so I didn't gain any new ones but Rou seemed to have gained a smell related skill. It was faint so we couldn't tell, I even focused mana to my nose to boost it but nothing. Just a hobgoblin that smells of brimstone and Ash.

Day 25- this was my day to train the goblins and it didn't go well. I prefer self study, when I had to personally instruct them they ended up flying across the cave as I taught them throws. I normally practice on rocks which are much heavier so now I'm trying to control my strength while Rou takes over.

We then found a pack of black wolves which was promptly decimated by us. I was practically a blood tornado as I spun around surrounded by the pack drawing blood with every swing. I thought it was so funny watching Kichi fidget because he couldn't help with the dismantling process so I told him "don't worry buddy, people are just built different. Some people can skin fur easily and some can smash bones just as easily. Everyone has their talents so take a seat and be on the lookout".

His eyes shined thanks to my advice and he gained a goofy looking grin about how I called him talented. He managed to pick up I implied he's skilled at violence which means he's showing mental growth. That's a positive I guess?

After chomping on some pack leader meat I gained the {howl communication and steel skin traits gained}. The first one allowed me to understand the thoughts and feelings behind the wolves bowling in the distance while the latter made my skin thicker. Stone weapons can't pierce me anymore and iron takes a few swipes we discovered as I tested it with the new orc pickaxe.

Day 26- hobue was born today as E had managed to evolve. She's much cheerier now as before she was kinda quiet around the group. Rou congratulated her with a new bandana as her old one had wear and tear from repeated blood splatter.

I was grinning madly as Rou assigned us into platoons of 5-10 with the hobgoblins in front. Today we eat a pork buffet! My battle list just about managed to suppress my hunger though I had to clean drool away numerous times. The goblins asked why I was so hungry and offered their tanuki meat to do me over which I appreciated.

When we stormed their mine roars of pain echoed throughout the mountain side as the orcs were decimated. My red hair left a red trail as I moved between the orcs slashing and smashing them with my naginata and my steel like legs.

I took on an orc general myself which was incredibly fun. With one strong stab I impales his stomach and pierced his armour. Then using the blade embedded in him I hoisted him up and smashed him into the ground behind me which crushed his skull on impact killing him. Then I let out a roar of victory which made the goblins pumped as they sped up their killing spree.

I could swear I heard the old COD guy shouting "double-kill! Triple kill! Killing spree! MmmmmMonster kill!" After the battle we had numerous injured but no casualties. Rou showed off his healing spell so I tried running my mana through one of the injured to speed up his natural healing. {pain relief mana technique and mana healing gained}. Noice two new skills.

We grilled the pork on metal sheets and tore into it. Battle takes a lot of calories! There was some mixed variants in there and the generals meat was included so I gained some traits and skills. {rallying cry, polearm proficiency, improved digestion, regeneration, earth mana, wind mana, storm mana, storm resistance and earth resistance gained}.

Orc raids are big value! It makes me want to hunt down the lizard men and elves that live in this forest but I quickly regained my sanity. After my meal I meditated a bit and gained it as a skill {meditation and clear mind gained}. They essentially make me calm down and regain my mana faster when used in conjunction with each other.

I went to sleep excited after cycling my mana a few times as training. Tomorrow the ladies arrive which means I can learn from them and hopefully get a girlfriend. I'm not ending up as the solo powerhouse of the group whose single for life. Kichi is Goku and Rou is Vegeta then what does that make me. I ain't broly and I'm for damn sure not raditz or nappa. I refuse to be a piccolo and I'm pretty sure I could curb stomp yamcha as a goblin never mind as I am now.
