Demon King
Chapter 3 Goblins[2]

“What's what..”

I remembered what had happened before and chewed my finger. Did I really eat the whole goblin? That's outrageous. But my swollen stomach made sure of it.

Didn't hurt. Instead of being sick, my throbbing body was beautiful. That proves the explanation of the predator's skill of restoring physical strength. However, I thought I would absorb some of the victim's power, but it didn't seem to strengthen me. Why so? Are the goblins too weak?

At that moment.

[Goblin Predation 1/1]

[Get Quest!]

[You get 100 experiences]

[You got 10 bronze.]

[You got 1 of the lowest health potions.]

[Raise level!]

Lastly, when the glass window appeared, my body was fresh enough that it could not compare to the recovery of stamina through predation.

Wh why? It was obviously because I leveled up!

Is my level rising? I'm not sure about the experience, but my level is something I can improve!

If predation is washing, then the top level is bathing. If predation is regular coffee, then leveling up is the Starbucks vent. The feeling of leveling up is euphoric and addictive.

“Ahhh..”.

There was no change in appearance, but I can see that I am stronger because of leveling up. Status proved.

[Goblin Lv 2]

[Strength – 8 Health – 10 Magic – 5 Luck – ???]

[Skill-Ebon Heart, Predation Lv1, Escape Lv1]

Muscle strength increases by 1, and physical strength increases by 1. It was a subtle change, but the difference was significant to me. It's hard to describe the feeling of stats increasing in an instant unless you experience them yourself.

Killing goblins gained experience, and even completing missions gained experience. If you gain a lot of experience, then your level goes up, and you become stronger as you level up.

And the stronger you are, the more likely you are to survive.

“More.”

I have to be stronger. I will definitely be stronger in the future.

I have to save .. No, I have to live. And to live, I need to be stronger.

As if someone had read my mind, what I needed now appeared before my eyes.

[Mission generated]

[You have done a successful predation. But it's not enough. You should eat more goblins and develop your abilities. Prove minimum qualifications for living in a dungeon.]

[Goblin Hunt 0/20]

[Goblin Predation 0/20]

At one time, the number doubled, but I was not satisfied with it. Experience can be gained by capturing ten goblins, and I complete the mission once. This search will be no different.

My life that was supposed to end has been revived in this dungeon. My body is upside down, but I have what I need to survive. Someone I still don't know gave me a mission.

There are many unknowns, but now it is not a problem. The only thing that matters is surviving and, if possible, being strong.

I woke up in a chair. Holding a stone that was easier to lift than before, I walked in the hallway carefully, but with shining eyes.

I found a goblin wandering the path and looked around carefully first. The goblin was wandering around foolishly; there seemed to be no other way outside the passageway. I have to do it now.

I don't know when he'll look back. I approached him quickly and carefully.

But shit! As I was about to reach it, I stepped on a rock on the floor!

“Ki!?”

The goblin was frightened and turned around. At that moment, I hit his face firmly forward and back with the rock I was holding.

“Ki-yi-yi!”

The goblin screamed, and subconsciously raised its fist. It hit my face exactly.

I'm so sick I want to scream, but have you ever experienced it before? As the arm contracted, the punch stopped!

I endured the pain, and ran towards him.

Kiii!

“Stop!”

He fell to the floor and hit his head sharply. I clenched my hand and dropped it. He was desperate, but I was also desperate.

Then, for a moment, he raised his hand and traced the floor. He grabbed the rock like I did. Where's it?! I dropped his arm and picked up another rock nearby and hit it on his forehead.

Kee-i-y!

If you can't finish him off, you're dead! Only that thought filled my mind. Once again, my heart was pounding. Naturally, my hands became faster. I kept hitting the rock.

“Lock, key, key..!”

The goblin gradually stopped fighting at a certain point and finally stopped.

[Goblin Hunt 1/20]

[You got 1 bronze.]

“Hah... huh..”.

I shook my breath and put down the stone. I monitor the sounds I make while fighting and monitor other monsters.

The Dungeon was silent. There are no other monsters. It was a huge dungeon, so he escaped the battle without attracting more monsters.

“Alright then..”

I had to drag the goblin and move it, but he was currently in the middle of an open passageway. This is a space where you can take care of your environment.

I stared at the goblin's body. I don't feel as nauseous as I did the first time. Instead, it seems to be a nutrient that will heal me.

“I will enjoy this meal.”

In this way, I started a new life as a goblin.

How long has it been since I opened my eyes with a goblin body? I don't know. After receiving the quest, I killed and ate 16 goblins.

I leveled up to 5.

[Gang Si-ha (Fate)]

[Goblin Lv 5]

[Power – 11 Stamina – 14 Magic – 5 Luck – ???]

[Skill-Ebon Heart, Predation Lv1, Escape Lv1]

Every time I level up, my strength and stamina increase by 1. When I ate ten goblins, I gained one stamina.

I'm not sleeping. I wonder why I am not sleepy. I could not find the next target even though it had been quite a while since I had eaten the goblin, I felt tired from then on and realized it.

So far, I have recovered my health by going ahead and leveling up. Fatigue disappears by restoring physical strength.

Sleep is fatal. No matter how vast the Dungeon is, if you are unlucky, you will face the enemy. Not once or twice did I get frustrated and run away. Predation has become an important skill in order not to sleep.

‘I want you out with one.’

It's a little easier to deal with goblins since I reached level 4. The pain lessened when I was hit, and I did more damage while hitting.

I became more deadly.

But it makes me more nervous at the same time. Some goblins are of a higher level, and I will probably meet a goblin that is stronger than me.

I have to hunt all the goblins carefully unless I know the level of the goblins before.

As I quietly stepped into the new passageway, I found prey. I took a stone with a very familiar shape and approached it carefully.

Goblins are boring. Their hearing is excellent, but other senses are lacking. They lack what is called the sixth sense.

But before I could get close to him, he looked back at me.

My heart seems to stop. The knife is in his hand. It was rough and rusty, but after all it was a knife.

Quaps.

She laughs. Now I saw that his upper body was a little more developed, unlike other goblins. I know that he is stronger than me. Much more powerful.

As soon as I realized it, I threw the rock I was holding onto him and started running.

Kyap, Kirp!

He chased behind me with a terrifying voice. I ran desperately, and I ran away. Deep inside my body, I felt something flying like a small fountain, perhaps where mine was consumed bit by bit.

My magic is trash and the escape skill does not last long.

That's what I thought at first, but I'm not worried. After I ran out, this time, I started to lose my health. Quite often I recover my health from predation so that I can feel stamina.

It feels good to keep running. But what if it's over? At that time, I could only wait for death. Horrifically.

I couldn't help but worry, and I suddenly looked back. Fortunately, the distance between the goblin with the knife and I was gradually getting further and further away.

So that's how it works, even if I have an escape skill, I can only use it when I escape from battle.

If I keep going this far, wouldn't it be possible to step aside if I found another way twice in this complicated basement? Then I can live! A little hope began to emerge.

But he had one more method that I never thought of.

Kiyaks!

That's very disturbing. Then at that moment, he nodded as if he was determined.

Then he threw his knife at me. It was clumsy, but the sword was aiming at me accurately.

“Good!”

That can't be avoided. It would be a miracle if I who was only desperate to escape dodged the blade thrown by the enemy with a higher physical ability than me.

The knife got stuck in my thigh. It wasn't deep, but I wasn't able to stop and pull out the knife now, and it was painful to run.

Looks like a flame is coming out of my thigh. I felt that I was going to fall.

What happens next if I fall? I'm gonna die. That guy would kill me without a doubt, like how I killed all the other goblins. It is the nature of goblins.

If I fall, I will die. Have I survived hell, only to die again in a more miserable way than when I was human?

I hate this. I can't die. I have to survive. I want life I want to live!

Just then, Ebon Heart surged forth.
