Mama Goblin

Killing the rest of the goblins was a very task. Tracking them on the other hand, was a very arduous one. The soil was lumpy which meant that the prints were formed on it with ease. But the area around the boulder was a high-traffic area for goblin's footprints. And the mangled mess of those prints made it very hard for Arun to track down the rest of the bunch. Thus it took him most of the day before he was fully able to kill every goblin that he had counted during his reconnaissance.

After he was done, he saw that the sun would set in a few hours. In the situation, Arun decided that it would be for the best if he just settled down here, somewhere for the night. And he had just the place that he could go. The Boulder was not exactly a luxury hotel. But it sheltered him, as well as there was a cool fireplace already assembled there. He practically didnt have any work to do there, so he thought what would be a better place than that?

As he got to the boulder, he saw the fire of their camp was extinguished. He then turned towards the boulder itself and started staring at the small hole at the bottom. He had not forgotten that he was interested in finding out the secrets of the boulder. Without any fear, he instantly slipped into the hole to see what he could see. He didnt expect to find himself in a tunnel, in which he could only crouch to move.

The strange part was that he could see light at the other end of the tunnel. Dont fucking tell me that there are more fucking goblins down there.

Trying not to make a lot of noise, he got down there, ready to attack. To his surprise, he didnt find any goblin there.

He then found himself in a rather large chamber, which was filled with various junk. There were herbs stored at one side, meat and beast hide to its side. There was a whole section that looked like was filled with various broken weapons. And the pile had everything from broken swords to spearheads. The cave itself was illuminated by a glowing fish. That fish seemed to be suspended by the roof of the chamber, enclosed by water. He could not see anything that was holding the water, making him realize that maybe it was some sort of magic that was making water stick to the roof like that.

Oh fuck me! He internally screamed, when he saw that there was something at the other end of the chamber. He immediately took out his sword and got into a stance. The other end of the chamber was filled with darkness, it was the only place where the light couldnt reach. He could see the silhouette of the throne, along with the shadow of someone sitting on it. When the thing moved, he was bombarded with messages.

At that moment, the being on the throne opened her eyes. Her yellow pale eyes stared at him, with rage. She growled ferally. Stood up and came to light. Unlike the normal goblin that he had fought, this one was bigger. She stood proud at five and a half feet and had similar features as a goblin. But unlike the malnourished bald midgets, she had long braided hair. Also, this one had a muscle-packed body and giant breasts, which were just out there.

She looked injured. She had several bruises and cuts all over her body, which was a very good thing, considering something told Arun that this was not going to be an easy fight.

Without a warning, she jumped at him. She tried to grab him with her giant hands. He jumped back to avoid her. But she was stronger and faster than him. She quickly swiped her hand at him, flinging him to the wall. The impact from the wall hurt, but it was nothing that his adrenaline couldnt take care of.

By the time he was able to get his bearing and stood up, she came to him once again. This time she tried punching him, but he narrowly avoided her attack, because of which she slammed her hand into the wall, making the whole cave vibrate.

Fuck, she was too strong. Immediately he barrel rolled out of her attacking range and then made some distance between him and the goblin. He was able to make the distance with ease, but when he stood up, he saw a basket being flung at him. He was not able to dodge that. The basket slammed straight into his face, making him fall on his back.

He let go of the sword and quickly tried to get up. But till then the goblin was on him, she grabbed his leg and threw him at the pile of broken weapons. Something pierced his right shoulder, and the impact of the fall started making his head ring. He tried getting up, but the goblin was on him once again.

This time her hands went for his neck, and she started choking him. With her thumbs, she started pushing his windpipe in. To get out of the situation, Arun used his hand to scour through the debris, to find a broken arrow. Immediately he took it and slammed it into her face.

The arrow penetrated her face throw her cheek, the pain made her let go of his neck, and then he kicked her away from him. The goblin stumbled back and landed on her butt. He quickly got up while rubbing his neck, it still hurt. He then spotted a two-handed axe in the pile of the crap. Immediately he grabbed the thing and slammed it into the skull of the goblin who was just getting up.

She fell to the ground, breathing her last breath. The rate at which her chest was going up and down was slowing down. She was at her last breath.

This bitch. Then a thought came to his head. Before she could disintegrate, he got on his knees and cupped her breast.

Interesting.. Very firm and soft. They dont match their appearance. 

And then she died, with her body turning into dust. And she left a scroll behind…

What is wrong with my luck? On the one hand, I have this good item, but on the other hand.. I have this. This fucking piece of trash..

Arun was ranting because of the new skill that he got. It is called Water Binding.

_________________________________

Name- Water Binding.

Type- Active Skill

Rank- Common

Description- An inherited skill of Mother Goblin, who used this to illuminate the caves and dark holes where she raises her young ones. Using a distinct Runic Plate pattern, the mother could bind water to the Runic Plate. In turn, the outer layers of the water because this permeable solid bubble which doesn't let the water flow freely.

Usually, Mother Goblin saves a glowing fish in the water and sticks it at the center of the cave.

———————————————————————

After a description of the skill, he realized he could create a water bubble because of this skill. A harmless water bubble. It was not in any sense a weapon that he could use, he knew it because he tried using the skill.

There was an earthen pot in the cave, which was filled with water. He tried using the skill on the water and was able to make a water bubble. But soon he realized that he could only sustain the bubble by constantly feeding it mana, and by making direct contact with it. If he wanted to make an independent bubble, then needed some sort of anchor, which the description referred to as a Runic Plate.

The information about the anchor was in his mind after he got the skill. But he didnt know how to make a Runic Plate, nor did he know how to find one.

He was a little disappointed by the useless nature of the skill that he got. But it was not something that he thought about much because he found something else in the Cave, which did make his day.
