"Well that gives me so much more time. And I am almost finished in 1 continent. This is way too easy.". And kids, that's why you should never be too confident.

***

After getting his Adventurer card, Arthur ordered drinks and drank alcohol till he was drunk.

Well he couldn't get drunk so all he really did was assert who the king was in the guild.

The adventurer's guild. One of the biggest organizations in the world. With rankings as high as the imperial army, the adventurer's guild was filled with great numbers that had great strengths.

They were so powerful only goblins with official titles could even dare to go against adventurers.

Well that was the case, till this unknown goblin appeared out of nowhere.

"Is this all you got!" Yelled by Arthur as he was standing on a table.

"You dare mess with all of us!"

"You will die!"

"Capture him!"

Countless adventurers rushed towards Arthur. Arthur of course had no problem dealing with any of them. So much so that he just played a game with them.

Arthur tip-toed and kept jumping and leaning his body. To knock out multiple goblins while seemingly almost falling to the ground and losing his balance through drunkness.

"Truly need no effort bitches!"

Arthur jumped atop a goblins head, standing atop it till all rushed him.

"What an idiot. Really?"

Goblins flew through every direction trying to jump and hit him. While the head he was standing on was constantly moving up and down, left and right at such a rapid pace.

Arthur had to dodge and land at a moving head all at the same time. Quite frankly, Arthur may not be able to be drunk, but he was having lots of fun.

After defeating all the goblins, Arthur immediately piled their bodies as fast as he could...

[Pseudo-Dragon Speed Activated]

...and sat on top like a cold blooded killer. 'Ok so, i've seen people stand on piles of bodies but like? Did they ever explain how they all piled together? At a perfect pyramid at that?!'.

But of course none were killed. After standing on top of the pile, Arthur slowly went down.

In the face of normal goblins, that scene would have been horrific-

But in front of someone powerful... piling the bodies one by one and going up and then going down was obviously a really dumb scene.

Arthur sat down on a chair and started drinking more of his beer.

The entire time, Arthur was actually surprised the staff never dared to stop him. It was either they couldn't because no one ordered them to, or it really was just a normal scene to see in the Adventurer's guild.

While drinking and getting a bitter feeling of not even tasting alcohol, Arthur was approached by a goblin...

"What an amazing fight.". Said the goblin, and continuously sat down in front of him.

"Who are you?"

The goblin was wearing a hood, it was fully covering his entire body and face.

"Begalan, nice to meet you.". The goblin removed the hood on his head and it revealed a handsome young goblin.

{Begalan}

{The 7th King}

{The King Of Terror}

"Arthur Pendragon, you can just call me Arthur.". The two shook hands.

While the two hands were in contact, Begalan pressed his hands so hard it cracked Arthur's bones. But thankfully, they were all fake and it really didn't matter in the end.

But that situation, alerted Arthur, the man in front of him, was definitely stronger than him.

The two let go and Begalan took a beer and drank it.

"How would you like to serve me."

"Well, why should I?"

Begalan raised his eyebrows and looked right and left then said. "You don't know me?"

"No". Arthur replied nonchalantly.

"Hahahahaha!" Begalan laughed and smacked the table.

"Interesting! Interesting!" Begalan's face was so full of enthusiasm as his face was smiling so hard and even his closed eyes were smiling.

Then his tone immediately changed. "Who are you.".

Begalan. One of the 9 Kings. In this world made so systematically, there was no way a single goblin would not know what he looked like. Only goblins in villages would not be able to recognize him.

And if Arthur was from outside the kingdom and from a village... how could he move so freely.

But Arthur has yet to understand all of this.

"Oh... Is it... are you an important figure?".

A sword immediately appeared at the right of Arthur's neck.

"If you don't tell me who you are... well we can have some fun~" Begalan licked a knife he had on the other hand.

Arthur backed and jumped backwards. He was totally not expecting a fight with a very powerful entity at the start of his first vacation in years.

Arthur kicked the table to stop Begalan from approaching him immediately and took out his sword.

But as his sword just appeared at his hands, not even fully prepared. Begalan appeared in front of him like he teleported. With Arthur's speed, he didn't even see Begalan move.

Begalan slashed Arthur multiple times. But they were absolutely not fatal attacks.

"Feel the pain!"

Arthur could not follow all of Begalan's attacks and as they just started to exchange blows while staying on one spot, Arthur's body was bleeding so much, that his entire body was just entirely devoid of skin.

Begalan, the entire time was just yelling and yelling. "Do you wanna die from the pain?! Hahahaha!". Instead of even being scared to death, Arthur was actually stupidly laughing on the inside.

It was obvious just from the way Begalan attacks. He was an absolute sadist who liked torturing people. But unfortunately for him, Arthur could feel no pain and all the pain he was inflicting was so insignificant it wasn't even slowing Arthur down.

When Begalan saw that Arthur was still fighting with the devastated look of his body like all the skins were ripped and all was left were red muscles covered in blood, Begalan let his guard down for a few seconds.

These few seconds were enough to let Arthur inflict even a slight injury to Begalan. But Arthur had no intention of inflicting a small injury.

'Eternal Slumber'

When Arthur entered his proximity, Begalan immediately retracted his sword and instinctively blocked an attack he couldn't even notice. 'Did I just think I was gonna die?'.

Arthur failed to even inflict damage to Begalan, but he saw his sword break to pieces, including Arthur's sword.

From the humiliation of feeling 'fear' Begalan...

[You Have Died]

"Ahhhhh! What the fuck was that. That man was too powerful what the fuck. I trained so long but his movement was just way too fast. And with his strength preserved to play with me, we were even in strength."

Arthur was displeased. He was still way too weak. He didn't even know who that person was.

So, to make up for that, as soon as Arthur spawned in, he went to go look for Seves and ask him if he knew of any goblin named Begalan.

"Begalan? Who wouldn't know about him." Arthur has spent some time with Seves, and now he can speak with him casually.

"Who is he...?"

"Well I mean, i guess its understandable if you dont know him." Seves paused then continued.

"Begalan, one of the 9 Kings."

"Wait?! One of the 9 Kings?!".

Seves was so confused on how he knew of the name yet didn't even know who he was. Regardless he continued.

"The 7th King, the King of Terror. With his despicable ways of handling his victims he was nicknamed as such."

"Begalan loves playing with his victims like they are toys. To rip their skins or even torture one's family in front of them."

"Begalan would do anything to make his victim lose their mind. And in the end he would let them be and just let them live the way they have turned into."

Seves finished explaining and Arthur had many questions.

"Wait... but why would he do that? When the goblins are all hypnotized."

"Not all goblins are hypnotized, like me."

"Oh yeah, I wanted to know why?"

"Well I was an ex-adventurer..."

...

The adventurer's guild. A group of people filled with great fighters. They were all living goblins with just one goal. To complete a mission and rest with the rewards.

The Adventurer's guild was only divided in two ranks.

The Guild Leader.

And.

The Adventurers.

Trained from the moment they were born. Special goblins were not hypnotized to be mindless dolls and to follow every order.

The adventurers are goblins who survived a very tenacious trial, leading all of them to be of equal strength.

The only difference between adventurers are knowledges on how to fight and ways on how to survive.

And being an adventurer was the only way to never ever be hypnotized.

The adventurer guild was the home of the other side of the goblins.

And the place everyone from the organization came from.

And the place where the 9 Kings made their legends from.
