Chapter – 11 (Hunt begins(Part 5))

SLASH!!

The last goblin died. With this Primis had killed all the goblins on all four lookout towers. He took a sigh of relief before putting last magic stone into his inventory. Now out of 100 goblins in the village. 20 died without anyone realizing it. Primis took a deep breath before looking down from this tower.

Primis: It's time to clear these huts.

Primis then descended from the tower. His first target, the hut nearby. Once he appeared in front, he opened the door of the hut slightly enough to be able to look inside. As he had expected, goblins had no aspect of lock or something.

Inside there were four goblins sleeping. They had a mindset that they will be safe with Hobgoblins here. Completely unaware that death had approached them. Primis opened the door and entered inside silently.

The sound of Elucidator swinging or thrust, or air penetrating may wake others in the hut. Therefore, Primis put Elucidator back into its sheath. Primis silently walked towards the two goblins who were sleeping close with each other. Once Primis approached them. He grabbed both of neck carefully before squeezing it.

CRACK!!

CRACK!!

Because Primis was extremely careful, the sound of necking breaking failed to be heard by the other two sleeping goblins. The two dead goblins disperse leaving behind magic stones which Primis hurriedly put in his inventory. Then he approached the other two and did the same.

CRACK!!

CRACK!!

Then Primis left the hut and went towards the next one. In this hut there were five goblins. Not much problem for Primis. He did the same he did in the last hut.

CRACK!!

CRACK!!

CRACK!!

CRACK!!

CRACK!!

Killing the sleeping target is a lot easier than the awake ones. By now Primis cleared the goblins from ten huts. Ten more huts to go. Why ten more not twenty more? Because out of thirty huts only twenty were being used by goblins to live. The remaining ten huts were filled with the foods they gathered, their spoils and their loots. These huts were also neared the bonfire means close to Hobgoblins.

Primis then walked towards the 11th Hut. But he came to the door, he sensed something and hurriedly hid at the side.

CREAK!!

Door opened and a goblin came out. The goblin was still sleepy since it was rubbing its eyes. Primis narrowed his eyes. He didn't try to approach or kill it because he felt that something was wrong about this goblin. Maybe because it's bigger than other normal goblins or because it was wearing a tooth necklace.

[DING. A Shaman.]

Primis: Shaman?

[DING. Yes, host that goblin is a Shaman. Shaman are special and extremely rare goblin species. They have weak body even compared to normal goblins. On the contrary, they are specialized in using magic.]

Primis: Magic. Huh. No wonder I felt something wrong about this goblin. That necklace it was wearing gave me a tinge feeling.

[DING. All Shaman wear tooth necklace. Shaman can use tooth necklace to store one of their spells. As a result, they can release that spell instantly without wasting any casting time. When you kill Shaman, you must be sure it died instantly. Otherwise, if it even had a tiny bit of life left, it can send a will into necklace which will directly release the spell stored inside the necklace.]

Primis: Good thing, I didn't try to attack it before. If I had tried to kill it silently like others, then it would have enough time to send its will in the necklace before dying. That would have resulted in everyone alive to realize that something's wrong.

Primis then decided to take care of this Shaman at the end. He then proceeded towards the nine remaining huts. Not all goblins were asleep in the remaining huts. They were talking among themselves and laughing. Primis skipped those huts in which such goblins were present. But by the time, he was done with others, these goblins also fell asleep. So, Primis put an end to them too.

Now the only one remain in this village was the Shaman and five Hobgoblins. It's hard to believe that almost everyone died without anyone realizing it. Primis then walked to Shaman hut. It had already returned. When Primis noticed it before, it was going towards the bonfire to use its fire magic and re-ignite the flames.

Primis saw it using fire ball. The power behind that fire ball could severely injured or kill anyone under Level 2. This was enough proof why Shaman was given special treatment. Even Hobgoblins looked at it with respect when they saw how such a weak body can release such a powerful spell.

Primis opened the door and entered inside. Shaman was sleeping on its bed peacefully. Primis didn't kill it directly but look at another corner of the room.

There was an altar. On that altar, there were many skulls. Some belonged to animals while other belonged to humans. There were many candles lighting around the altar. At the side, there was also a staff of some sort. On top of staff, there were three skulls of monsters. Primis had no idea who those skulls belong to.

Primis: System, put a book containing the information of all the monsters and races present in this world.

[DING. Done, Host.]

Primis nodded and turn towards the sleeping Shaman. Primis walked towards it, drew his Elucidator before severing the string of tooth necklace. Then he picked it up without Shaman realizing it.
