Goblin (I)

The moment the goblin got close to the bush, it got stabbed by a sword in the shoulder letting out a pained sound. Green blood came out of the wound.

Yet even in pain, the goblin kept swinging its small club in hopes to hit the one who attacked it.

Noah's method wasn't bad. It was both efficient and logical. Stay hidden, attract the enemy to your position, and attack the enemy when he has his guard off. But to manage this he has to be way more accurate in order to finish the fight without any problems.

After a moment of trashing the goblin stopped because it was tired of swinging the club that much. Looking at Noah the goblin realized it was he who just stabbed him, with eyes filled with anger the goblin started running in his direction holding the club tightly.

The moment the gap was short enough the goblin swung the club this time in a more precise way, in which Noah stayed still, trying to figure out a way to fight the goblin. Although he had killed only 2 rabbits he wasn't expecting the goblin to be stronger, his mind was racing while looking at the club approaching him, in a dazed state he tried to parry the attack with his own sword, but because he never had a direct confront with weapons he lost in strength and stepped a couple of steps back.

The goblins although small they are quite strong, their strength is at the level of a normal adult, Noah had extra attribute points but he didn't know how was his status board compared to others, without any reference.

Right after the goblin prepared to charge again, it was gaining confidence after finding out it was stronger than the fatty in front of him. This time it decided to aim toward Noah's leg before starting its murderous momentum, it was trying to impair its enemy movement.

Noah realized the goblin's movements because of the way it looked at his led. Noah felt scared, forget about the rabbits obviously the goblin in front of him had gone through more fights, the killing intent differed from the rabbits, his hands were still shaking because of the previous clash, now his legs felt like jelly completely ready to give out.

The moment the goblin was near him Noah stayed there petrified in urgency he placed his sword in the way of the club at contact he felt like he dislocated his wrist, not having a firm hold on the sword proved to be fatal, feeling the pain in his wrist he snapped out, he felt scared but this was his life and he didn't want to die like this, forget about others the thought of death scared him too much, gritting his teeth he held the sword with both his hands and slashed forward, landing a hit on the goblins green torso.

Feeling the pain on its torso the goblin gave a hard swing toward Noah's torso in revenge hitting the fat that jiggled. Feeling the pain Noah almost threw up, the lack of air that came wasn't comfortable at all, even in this state he didn't take his eyes off the goblin, he realized that he should never underestimate his opponents ever.

The goblin simply didn't want to let him recover so it prepared for another lunge. It bent its body forward and ran at full speed, which was funny it was obviously faster the children in elementary school but was non the less funny.

Noah caught the goblins movement and his mind raced, the goblin was stronger than him in strength so he should use his speed but again he was a big guy ( talking about belly) and moving this swiftly even if he wanted to wasn't doable at all, he decided to do the same as he did with the rabbits he simply decided to predict, both creatures worked mostly by instinct so the behavior shouldn't be too different.

He with much difficulty he stepped aside prepared to dodge the oncoming lunge.

But the goblin had a weapon and although it didn't land the first swing it gave another swing after to the direction of Noah, after that goblin stepped forward to start a barrage of attacks.

Noah knew he couldn't fight so he tried to parry the goblin successive assault with his sword, he wasn't feeling any pain from his wrist, maybe because of the adrenaline, using the brief second when the goblin paused to recover energy, Noah began his own successive slashes, truth be told they where blind attacks in hope to hit its target.

Taken by surprise by the fatty sudden change in the fatty, the goblin tried to step back and create some distance between them. The moment it tried to back away was the moment it was doomed without care Noah slashed once, twice not leaving any chance for the goblin to recover, the goblin who wanted some space to take a breath tripped and fell to the ground. Not wanting to let this opportunity go Noah stabbed his sword in the direction of the goblins temple. Due to the fall, the goblin was not capable of dodging the incoming sword that came in his direction, it knew everything was over, eyes filled with unwillingness, just a moment ago it felt it was winning and now this situation.

The sword made contact and pierced through the goblins head, its body slightly shook before stopping. Only after it stopped did Noah relax and fell powerlessly on the ground panting hard.

The moment he tried to support his body, he felt a painful throb coming from his wrist. He saw the green liquid coming out of the various wounds in the goblin's body, truly a sickening sight. He began lamenting on how pitiful he looked in this fight, he panicked which almost cost his life.

Mustering his strength and using only one hand he stood up with a lot of difficulty. He began walking toward the body of the midget placing it on his inventory, this time he had the wooden club and 5 copper coins which he gladly accepted. After collecting his loot he decided to walk back to his cave to recover, he was in no condition to fight, his wrist hurt like hell and he had to treat it.

And just like this, his second-day hunting came to an end, walking with caution to his cave, praying to not encounter something in his way back.

The moment he stepped foot in the cave, he felt hungry too hungry so he started eating the posted rabbit in his inventory with only one hand. After taking a mouthful of meat in his mouth he heard a notification coming from his mind.

**Ding** Host has not fought for 4 successive hours healing wounds. [Tutorial Healing]

Noah felt a warmth inside his body, the next moment he felt a sting coming from his damaged wrist, the wrist came back to its original state, this feeling stayed for about 30 minutes before Noah fell asleep, this was a stressful day for him and so he was completely exhausted.
