I am now quite armed with the Colossal Sword of the Goblin Warrior and the Bronze Shield.

[Blood Colossal Sword (81/194) – Attacks 94]

[Bronze Shield (300/300) – Defense 80]

When I became a Goblin Warrior, holding a sword was no joke. But now that I have evolved into a Hob Goblin, a sword in one hand can be used and the other hand holds a shield.

I ran in one direction, the bastard sword in my left hand and the bronze shield in my right hand. It was laughable to watch the Goblin Fighters on the frontline wielding rusty swords.

Ki-ang!

[You got 10 bronze.]

The Goblin Fighter unsheathed his sword with all the power he could muster. Watching him, I thought he was very similar to me when I first met the Goblin Fighters.

With the abilities I have gained now, I am sure that even if my opponent is a Goblin Warrior, I will not suffer defeat.

I held and swung my sword, and every time, one or two, the Goblin Fighters died. The rusty black bronze shield belonging to the Goblin Warrior was impenetrable.

However, it bothered me because the Goblin Fighters came from all sides. This was my first time fighting against enemies coming from the front and back. I used the Detection Skill to track down all the enemies around me and attack them before they got too close to me.

As the battle unfolded, gradually, a mountain of corpses gathered around me. I thought the inventory would increase once again as I had evolved, but even so, it was impossible to enter the bodies of a large number of Goblin Fighters.

It was getting harder for me to move as my space slowly became smaller as I continued to drop more Goblin Fighters bodies on the ground. But even so, the number of Goblin Fighters rushing towards me continued to increase.

“Cracked!”

Just when it seemed like I was about to be beaten by a group of Goblin Fighters, the enemy suddenly flung out when it hit the tip of my sword. At that moment, a group of Goblin Fighters near the tip of my sword trembled. I realized why. It was Black Lightning! I can pull it with the tip of the sword!

This is a good opportunity to kill your opponent. Realizing that my Mana was still over 70%, I stretched out the sword once more and let out a black lightning bolt. This time, a black light was seen. Shortly after, the Goblin Fighters who had gathered were electrocuted and compacted in place.

“Ah, ah, ah!”

Not missing the opportunity, I kicked the floor and ran forward, swinging the sword to the side. Twenty or so Goblin Fighters were electrocuted. The top and bottom of their waists burned at once, and their bodies fell to the floor.

I crashed into their bodies and rushed carrying the shield towards the Goblin Fighters, who appeared behind them.

“Oh, ah, ah!”

As the battle lines collapsed and the siege chains became weak, the Goblin Fighters were unable to resist and fell.

I pulled the sword out of the shield and slashed at the Goblin Fighters within range.

[Raise level!]

All the injuries I sustained during the short battle disappeared. Only my level has increased, but I feel the strength of my arm has also increased.

I cheered and held my sword. The cries of the Goblin Fighters echoed throughout the cave.

‘Wait.’

It was at that moment that an unpleasant thought flashed through my mind. With the shouts of the Goblin Fighters, won't more come out?

My assumptions are always accurate and damn! A Goblin Warrior appeared at the opposite end of the corridor where I was fighting!

He carried a wooden shield, not a bronze shield, and he had leather armor. The weapon looked slightly lighter than my sword, but the blade looked just as sharp.

Kiii!

“Kick, Kii-ii!”

He was also aware of what the Goblin Fighters were doing, and with an extremely irritating shout, he dashed towards them, slicing, throwing, and hitting them.

I also cut off as many Goblin Fighters as possible before they approached me. Of course, ever since he appeared, he had not used black lightning, and half of the Goblin Fighters were now rushing towards him. It became even more convenient for me to handle them without a bolt of Black Lightning.

“Sst! Shit!”

But it was impossible to kill them all without getting hurt. No matter how strong the bronze shield was, I could not cover my entire body with it. My injuries were caused mainly by people attacking me from behind.

[You got 10 bronze.]

I violently swung my sword and cut it all at once. Blood came out from their wounds and flowed into their bodies. The pain must have tormented them, but they could not show any signs of weakness due to the increased momentum of the battle.

It is better to level up, and those who will give me more experience accumulate on the ground like mountains. I put the fatigue out of my mind and rushed towards them again.

“Wow!

Then I heard a Goblin Warrior yelling quite close to me! I tried to understand his approximate location and intentions with my detection skills. I quickly rolled onto the ground full of corpses and cut off the hand of a Goblin Warrior with my sword.

I stood up, put my hands in my mouth, and started chewing.

I continued to eat it while rolling onto the floor, dodging the attacks of the Goblin Warrior, and I recovered my health a little.

“Ki-yi....!”.

When he looked at me and realized that I was not a normal upper class, he pushed all the Goblin Fighters out of the way and revealed himself to me. I also reached out to him.

Black lightning appeared and struck him.

Crack down!

However, he looked at me very calmly, as if he was expecting a Black Lightning strike. Damnit damnit! I've never seen anything like it before.

I was nervous, and I hit him. He also had a knife, but he dropped it.

But suddenly, there was panic on his face, and he tried to grab his shield with his hand, but he ended up dropping it the next moment. Only then did I fully realize that he was not completely resistant to black lightning.

Black Lightning. Lightning with a curse. The curse seems to work well. For a moment, I thought about his strength, then my body switched to auto-pilot and automatically launched my greatsword, piercing the neck of the Goblin Warrior.

“Ki-ay, kii-iay!”

The sword could not penetrate well due to its tilted position, but the impact was felt because there was so much blood flowing from its neck. It wasn't until then that the curse worked, but he still rushed towards me, taking his sword. I wasn't sure what he was going to do, so I decided to use the black lightning two more times. I once again pierced the neck of the Goblin Warrior. He is cursed and weak. Then he fell to the ground and died.

[You gained 600 experiences]

[You got 90 bronze.]

I put the body of the Goblin Warrior directly into the inventory. Then I looked around.

“Are you going to keep trying?”

The Goblin Fighters, who were now afraid of my strength, retreated little by little. However, something changed within them as their eyes suddenly changed, and they started rushing towards me with rusty swords.

That's not a normal reaction. Something might be controlling them!

I have to break it.

However, there was no time to think of such a thing. I knew I had to survive first, so I sighed and ran to get involved with them.

For now, there will be no rest.

I wish I knew what time it was so I could measure how long I held the sword. But I should focus only on fighting, and because of this principle, I wordlessly swung the sword and raised the shield to stop the enemy's attack without keeping an eye on it in time, or count the number of fallen enemies, or check the status.

I realized that the injuries that befell me were a result of my lack of competence with the shield. It doesn't suit me. It has nothing to do with my skills.

I moved my body without hesitation; I had to finish off the enemy as quickly as possible. I need to avoid the enemy attacking me with a shield.

Moreover, unless my level rises quickly, I need to eat the enemy's body during battle to revitalize my tired body. But both of my hands were occupied by swords and shields, so I knew it would not go smoothly. I put the shield into the inventory.

The wounds on my body gradually increased. I knew I needed to eat the body of a dead Goblin Fighter. Physical fitness and injuries are two completely different issues, but as long as I don't suffer significant damage, I can survive the battle.

I knew that in the end, I would level up, and all the wounds would heal. A fact which, if known, might disturb the enemy.

Still, this was true when it came to fighting the Goblin Fighters. Attacks by people like Goblin Fighters are fatal, so I should always have a shield against them.

However, I realized this natural fact only after fighting fiercely against the third Goblin Warrior and consuming the last remaining potion.

At that moment, the number of Goblin Fighters, who kept coming, started to decrease.
