Demon King
Chapter 10 Second Evolution[2]

I'm stumped.

“Why? Why is this happening? Is it because I went around killing Goblin Fighters? ”

I asked myself.

All the Goblins in the past killed each other without hesitation. Even if they were of the same species, all they cared about was their opposition to being exterminated. Did the Goblin Warriors do this of their own accord, or because of the dungeon? Nah! I need to calm down first.

The dysfunction did not help, and for a moment, I almost panicked. But soon after, rational thinking interfered, and I took a deep breath to dissect the situation appropriately.

So far, I have killed about 90 Goblin Fighters one by one, and each section has only one Goblin Fighter. But now there was a situation where there were three Goblin Fighters in two parts.

It was unlikely to be a natural phenomenon as it went against the Goblin's instincts; also, one of the rules of Dungeons made him unable to spawn more than one Goblin at a time.

The other part will not be too different. I don't know why this happened, and I don't know the answer because I'm alone. I have to think about what I have to do, but that too, I don't know.

There were usually two paths I could choose, but when faced with just one path with no other choice, I was forced to move forward. There's no turning back.

So I went down the hallway. Three Goblin Fighters crowded in the middle of the passageway. I walked towards them carefully.

Their backs are facing me. I looked around and realized that unless there was a hiding place in the hallway, Goblin Fighters could easily see me. All they had to do was throw a knife at my chest and then finish me off with a sword.

But the three men did not look at me. It seemed like they were looking for something because they were walking side by side.

They're stupid!

I rushed towards them, then struck the sharp iron sword on the neck of the barely visible Goblin Fighter A!

The punch was enough. A fountain of blood rose from the Goblin's throat, and he shook his head to die.

[You received 100 experiences.]

[You got 10 bronze.]

[Goblin Fighter Hunter Predation 98/100]

[Starter Surprise Attack has become Lv3.]

The search is automatically updated after the hunt, but it doesn't matter at the time. I removed all those thoughts from my head and focused on the battle.

That's the first step to survival.

I then attacked the other two Goblin Fighters after plucking the iron sword from the neck of the dead Goblin Fighters. Goblin Fighter C immediately rushed towards me after dodging it. He did not hold a sword, so I decided to use my lightning magic. After being used repeatedly, it reached Level 3, and lightning became even more prominent. It struck Goblin Fighter C, causing him to fall into a daze for a moment.

I swung the sword without losing an inch. Blood rose from his chest.

“Kick!”

Goblin Fighter B later withdraws from his partner. I rushed to Goblin Fighter C and struck his heart with my sword.

Goblin Fighter C, who had a sharp iron sword deep in his chest, fell and collided with Goblin Fighter B.

[You received 100 experiences]

[You get 10 bronze. After collecting 10 silvers, you can enter an exclusive shop.]

[Goblin Fighter Hunter Predation 99/100]

I took out a long sword from the inventory, a sword that was longer and heavier than the two swords held by the mercenaries.

The Goblin Warrior used a bastard sword that was too heavy and long. The blade is 70 cm long, and I haven't been able to handle it yet, but after leveling up, I can set it up.

Goblin Warrior B paused for a moment.

I smiled as I faced his confused expression; I then swung the long sword.

[You received 100 experiences]

[You got 10 bronze.]

[Goblin Hunter Predation Hunted 100/100]

[Mission Done!]

As I completed the quest, countless windows filled my eyes.

[You received 30,000 experiences.]

[Your level has improved a lot!]

[You get 10 silver.]

[You have obtained the 3 Lowest Mana Potions]

[You obtained 1 Bronze Shield.]

[Starter Sword Science became Lv10 and turned into a Low-Level Sword Science. The strength and speed of your swordsmanship have increased.]

I stared blankly at the glass window, momentarily forgetting my surroundings.

30,000 experiences! That was equivalent to killing 300 Goblin Fighters! I'm enchanted! I can't believe it.

I also got 10 silver, and can now go into an exclusive store. But I decided to think about it later.

The Lowest Mana Potion was not a desired gift for me, knowing that I had nine bodies saved for predation.

However, drinking potions in bottles may be more useful in an emergency, than eating a corpse.

Predicting the 100 Goblin Fighters also helped me gather sneak experience to the enemy, and the Beginner Sword Science finally reached Level 10.

I did not imagine it would end, but I did not expect that ‘Lower’ would appear after ‘Beginner’. It felt like I was climbing a mountain, but in reality, it was more of a sand dune in a local playground.

Anyway, I became even stronger. My chances of dying have diminished again, and I am happy with that fact alone.

Chance comes. It was also the one I expected and expected the most.

[Evolution may occur.]

It was possible to have a second evolution.

[Choose a race to grow.]

[1. Goblin Swordsman]

[2. Knight Goblin]

[3. Goblin Hob]

Full heart. Goblin Warrior. I can never forget that name.

I am now as strong as an insurmountable wall, which almost killed me. Of course, once I evolve, it will be difficult even to kill me.

It was only a guess, but I assumed that it was a special Goblin Warrior because it used Lightning Magic, and not all Goblin Fighters could use magic. What was surprising was that there were two other options besides the Goblin Warrior.

Goblin Knights who seem to be stronger than Goblin Warriors. Above all, the fact that I have never met a single one makes it look even more unique. That means I have to get out of the Goblin Warrior Zone to meet him. Both cases support my idea that the Goblin Knights are stronger than the Goblin Warriors. Perhaps it was a rare species that usually did not move around.

But it was the third item that made me even more confused.

Goblin Hob. It was an incredible species of white-faced Goblin that emerged as an intelligent and powerful warrior in many novels and games.

All this time the science I gained from playing the game was generally correct, so I was right about a lot of things. On the contrary, it was always possible that the Hob Goblin had nothing to do with combat power.

I have to risk my life now and make a choice. This isn't a game. I can't choose! Shit, can anyone explain to me what this is !?

Then, there was a large glass window in front of my eyes.

[Lowest Goblin Warrior-Monster. Variants of the Goblin are very powerful. Destroy the enemy with a large sword. Very rarely, there were Goblin Fighters with magical abilities.]

[Lowest Goblin Knight-Monster. Goblin Fighters rarely evolved into Goblin Knights. Goblin Fighters must have high expertise in swordsmanship and self-defense. It handles swords and shields and has high intelligence, thus hurting monsters larger than Goblins.

[Little Goblin-Hob Monster. Top Goblin species. It is slightly shorter than a human and has a well-developed body. He has higher physical abilities and intelligence than Goblins, and sometimes leads a group of Goblins to attack humans. It is not uncommon to have magical skills.]

Just incredible! Have I lost the information I should have?

For example, am I given weapon information for a long sword or a sharp iron sword? Is it possible to know these things just by thinking about them?

[Sharp Iron Sword (14/76) – Attacks 15]

[Hard Steel Swords (147/253) – Attacks 57]

As soon as I thought about it, information appeared in front of me. I looked at the numbers that represented the attack power, but it was clear that the steel sword was stronger than the sharp iron sword.

But what's the number in parentheses? After thinking about it for a moment, I wondered if it meant endurance. When I compare it later, it is clear that the numbers inside the parentheses have been reduced to (12/76).

Be it weapons, armor, or potions, the description can be checked. I removed all the other warnings, and I read the information about my evolution.

The Goblin Warrior was exactly what I thought. Monsters with physical strength and powerful magic abilities that only appear in very rare cases. What I met before was very special.

The information I got about the Goblin Knights showed me that I am not the only one who can evolve. Evolution is impossible for any Goblin, but it is possible for some individuals, like me, to evolve multiple times.

It's time to make a choice. Of course, there was no chance to worry.

I chose the Goblin Hob only because the Goblin Warrior and Knight were the lowest, and it was a lesser monster.

Moreover, the Goblin Hob was an extremely aggressive monster; it was clear that there would be similar evolutionary forms of the Hob Goblin Fighter, Hob Goblin Warrior, and Hob Goblin Knight.

I can be stronger! Ebon's heart is racing.

I look around. After making sure that there was nothing near here, I chose the Goblin Hob without hesitation. Then I closed my eyes.

The pain hit me like a storm. Lying if you think it will get better the second time. But this time, the pain, as if mocking my previous thoughts, was much worse than before.

My whole body feels like it's being ground into dust. I gave up, and countless reinforcement formed on my arms, legs, stomach, and head.

I could not move while the excruciating pain flowed all over my body.

Eventually, the pain slowly began to subside.

I'm up. The tears in my eyes ran down my cheeks. It was very difficult because I felt like I was going to die.

“Why do I have to go through pain like this?”

I asked myself.

Soon after, the evolutionary process ended.

[You become a Hob Goblin.]

[Starter Lightning Magic has become Lv4.]

[You gain Beginner Leadership skills.]
