7 Goblin Kings Army

We approached the cave in which the goblins lived and one could truly smell that goblins lived in there

„Urgh what the heck why does it smell so bad?" Neria asked something quiet obvious

„Well, I don´t think the goblins will mind it that much. Also, I personally don´t think with this smell any creature in the right mind would go near them" I answered her and she looked at me with a look that spoke a thousand words but didn´t said a tone as we came closer to the nest.

We spotted 10 guards but they looked quite sleepy. With wind magic, we scouted the cave out and man it was hugger than one would think it is. There is enough space for at least a 1000 goblins and as far as we could tell it was full till the edge.

„Things are getting interesting huh" I whispered and Neria rolled her eyes

„You know that we can´t smoke them out if they still have hostages so any ideas?" she questioned back and I thought for a moment

„As things stand now we need to charge in and kill them all but if we use our range magics on these small fries we can handle it. The only problem I see are the superior goblins but they are nothing we couldn´t handle"

I said to her and she sighed apparently she came to the same conclusion as of now we had to charge in which was my job. I jumped out of my hiding and stormed towards the cave. The guards noticed me but too late as I used magic to kill them before they could react. The goblins near the entrance seem to make some ruckus and rot together but they were nothing before me.

[Dragon Fang] I used a sword technique at which I speeded up to an absurd level with my sword hold to pierce anything in my way.

As I broke through the goblin wall I ended up in the first room of the cave it was rather vast and tall enough for me to freely swing my sword. As I checked my surroundings the goblins gave alarm and surrounded me

„Quite intelligent for a couple of goblins," I said as they used spears to surround me

While for normal adventurers this might be the end I´m way different from a normal adventurer [Flame Circle] I created a circle out of flames and burned the goblins around me with it

[Raging Tornado] while using wind magic to push some goblins out of the cave along with the smoke caused by my fire magic.

„Have Fun Neria I´m heading in" I said knowing that she couldn´t hear me and got deeper into the cave system while storming through the goblins as if they were nothing but air and soon I was covered over and over with goblin blood.

Even the superior goblin kind such as Hobs, Shamans, Berserkers and so on fell pretty fast before my blade. And soon I stopped counting how many I had killed.

After an hour or so I arrived at the throne room or so you could call it and a gruesome view came into my side.

In the corners, naked women in a state more dead than alive, bound on some crosses women with spread legs and right before me a shield wall out of wood with women bound on them

„You wicked creatures I will kill you all!!" I shouted in anger and used earth magic to pierce the goblins behind the shield as gruesome as possible in order for them to pay for their deeds while using wind magic to carry the captive women out of their reach.

The goblins were clearly surprised most likely they thought with their shields I would surrender to them but I actually attacked but that didn´t matter to me as I looked into the goblin kings eyes

He sat on a throne made out of human bone and in his hand he had a line that leads to a young girl whose eyes were ripped out and arms and legs were cut off apparently his favorite, plaything'.

I made a step forward and the Kings Guards, stepped in to protect their king I rushed towards them and clashed with them.

Their techniques were truly better than the ones from before but on their own they were still no enemies for me but they made this up with their number while 50 goblins hold me in check at least 20 mages prepared their spells and the king smiled sure of his victory but I wasn´t alone here „[Flame Burial]" Neria shouted from the entrance and turned the mages into piles of ash in a couple of seconds

„Took you quite long" I complained

„If I don´t know if you actually killed all of them it´s only natural that I check after it" Neria shouted back and with my new gained freedom as I didn´t had to watch out for the mages I could dispose of the Goblin Guards before me.

The King rose from his throne and I could see the greed in his eyes that looked at Neria he didn´t wasted a thought with the poor girl on his side and slowly came from his seat to join the battle

As he was mainly focused on Neria he didn´t seem to realize that his aides were killed just now or he didn´t care about that.

As I stepped between him and his road towards Neria he snapped back into reality and stared at me like I was a small fry before him

„So you are a confident one huh?" I asked and he drew his sword with the first look I could tell that this sword was a magic item

It was jet black with some white marks on the blade and looked like a cross while the blade itself was a little bit curved and one edged.

„This is bad Val it´s a high-quality magic item at least" Neria shouted

„It´s legendary if you asked me. Hey, how did a piece of shit like you got a hand on this blade?" I asked but no answer came only a swing with the sword which I evade and saw the blade go into the hard ground as if it didn´t existed

„Shit my sword won´t hold against this thing even for a second," I said while using all my skills to evade and attack while Neria backed me with magic but

„Impossible why isn´t magic working at all" Neria said in disbelieve as all her magic attacks didn´t do any damage

„I don´t know what is going on if attack magic isn´t working switch to defense and support don´t get shocked" I shouted while evading the goblin kings blade or rather his armor

It seemed like the longer he used his sword the more it fused with him and on his skin a demonic-looking armor formed itself.

„What the heck is up with this sword I can´t tell why but it seems kinda alive," I said while I swung my sword against the king's leg in order to immobilize him but I had no success

„Neria use your magic to bring the hostages out I will use my trump cards" I ordered her and she started taking out the victims while I threw a stinkbomb at the goblin kings face

As goblin noses were quite good he will suffer some disorientation as I also mixed some spicy plants into it his sight became worse

Next, I attacked his hearing with a little bit of wind magic by making extremely loud noises near his ears which soon began to bleed

As the king was robbed of his senses I tried to take his head as fast as possible but my fears became reality the armor itself took somehow control of the body and moved him and soon I heard a voice behind the throne that let my blood freeze

„Foolish Dhampir did you truly thought you could disturb my plans? I am Halashiriaska the Evil God of Unleashed Wrath you can´t kill my champion give up let yourself be killed as an act of mercy I will let your little friend die a nice death after she made up for the loses you just costed me" a goblin corpse said

„For the God of Unleashed Wrath, your quite rational what's wrong?" I tried to mock him a little while slowly retreating out of the throne room

„You can´t escape foolish child of Vida you will die so horrible that even Alda will pity you so now come and die YoU BaStArD" the voice became more distorted as the corpse became a piece of ash and the goblin king became only an armor.

, It seems I have no other choice but to use it inside if this thing escapes the cave a bloodbath will follow the world has only seen in the great war. Please Neria made it outside, I thought and check for Nerias position there where no one other than me and this living armor anymore

„SEE YOU IN HELL [HEAVENLY STRIKE]" I screamed and put as much power into it as I could muster and combined all eight attributes into my blade and cut through the armor and split the Goblin King in his armor into many pieces and his sword plunged into the ground as my blade broke and Halashiriaska spoke in disbelieve

„Im PoSsIbLe HoW cAn ThIs Be" his voice broke part for part more

This where the last words I heard from him and a black shadow left the sword. I decided to take the sword with me as my own sword was broken after fighting the Goblin king and also found it´s magic stone as I was about to leave the cave the reason why I didn´t wanted to use [Heavenly Strike] came

As the cave started to collapse and I ran what my feet gave to me I don´t even want to know how close I came to death during my run but somehow I made it out alive even though I don´t remember anything after leaving the throne room till I reached Neria who caught me as my legs gave in.

„You Idiot..." she sobbed „Do you even know how worried I was after I felt that attack just now" and she started to cry

„I´m terribly sorry but I had no other choice but to use it even my sword broke after clashing with that armor so you can tell without it I would surely be dead now"

I said to her but she still cried as a group of villagers came to look after us and couldn´t trust their eyes as they saw their missed ones alive when even in a terrible state and traumatized for the rest of their life. And the adventurers that came to escort them where shocked to see a hundred goblin corpses outside the cave.

We then went back to the village with the hostages on carriages and they immediately were brought into the houses to treat them.

Afterwards a big feast was held but I didn´t take place in it as my physical condition was close to a total collapse after fighting this Champion of an Evil God as I was close to falling asleep I heard my status updating and a mysterious voice that said something I never heard before

[Addaption to new wielder Valkorion completed! Setting a new weapon development tree!]

It would need some time before I would realize what weapon I took from that cave
