Lv. 999999 Goblins
Chapter 11 - Preparation

During these three years, the Elite Army of Haward Kingdom had been searching for the existence of such a electrifying Witch. However, during those three years they had found absolutely nothing within the Jewl Forest.

All they found was a place where the rest of the monster settlement had been destroyed. Judging from the situation, it seemed like someone was burning the place down.

"So there's no hint of the Witch's whereabouts at all, huh?"

"really. We've been checking it out all over Jewl Forest. But there was no strangeness at all except the futile remains of the monster settlement."

Currently King Jules and Captain of the Elite Forces of the Haward Kingdom. General Bardock is having private talks inside King Jules' room.

Jules sat down at his desk, while Bardock knelt before him.

"Bardock, do you know what kind of monster lives in that settlement?" Jules asked after trying to think.

Bardock replied, "I suspect that the place is where the abandoned Goblins live. It seemed like after feeling the pressure from the Witch, they fled leaving the house."

"So it's just Goblins, no matter how hard you think. The witch couldn't be one of them" Jules said. "Use the witch's investigation into you, Bardock, how many soldiers you need you can take. But. I want you to get rid of the witch immediately."

"Understand, Your Majesty."

However, the incident three years ago has become a scene in the Haward Kingdom. Therefore, Jules ended up working with the Adventurers Guild to install National-level Quests as well as Adventurers, where if anyone caught or killed the Witch would get a fantastic reward.

"I can still vividly remember the sensation I felt three years ago. That intimidating aura scared me to death."

***

The Plundering Mission, that's what Herlin said.

Looting is a common thing that Goblins do. Because they are greedy creatures and also need money as payment in their lives, they carry out looting.

Usually they did so in monsters that were weaker than them. But the treasures that were successfully robbed must have been very few.

However, that was all Goblins could do. They could not commit looting against a race stronger than them.

"P-plunder?!" Elen surprised.

"Right, you'll join our Raiders. There you will feel the real experience of fighting."

True, when we were 15 years old, the Goblins who were trained were obliged to follow the mission of Looting. Didn't think it would be this fast, would I use the [invisible] skill alone and quietly disappear during the battle?

Interesting thought but I felt that I did not deserve it while many people sacrificed their lives for the mission.

"Well, I'll try to help them slowly" I thought to myself.

"Friends, what if we race? The one who gets the most treasure then he who wins?!"

"Eeeh?! I don't want to!" Jefry refused.

"Looks exciting!"

"Eh?! You agree Elen?!"

"Because if there's a challenge, it's interesting, isn't it?"

"That's true, but...,"

What were these people talking about while the others were going to fight risking their lives?

"What about you, Ethen?"

"I'm following you" I said, shrugging both my shoulders.

"Then it's decided. This time I won't lose, Ethen! I will definitely collect more treasures from you."

I smiled mockingly, "If you could."

"You-you...?!"

"Alright! Enough to get here. The mission began the next day. Gather at night in front of the village entrance and join the army of Jarah. If you can return safely from this mission, then you have graduated to become an adult Goblin, so do your best and don't die."

"Good sir!"

The next day, at night. We gathered at the entrance of York Village. When the four of us got there, we saw that a group of Goblins were waiting.

They all carried knives and axes, some carried spears and arrows.

"You guys have come, yeah. I've heard it from Mr. Herlin. The four of you are his best students."

Suddenly a young Goblin came to us. He was Bard, the same Goblin that drove us to the tent when we first came to this Village.

"Uncle Bard. You also joined the Rage Force, huh?" ask Jefri.

"Don't join again, but I'm the leader of this army."

The four of us were surprised.

"lik?! Whereas three years ago Uncle Bard couldn't use a knife properly!" said Ted.

"It's rude! I've grown in the last few years. The four of you, don't seem to lose to me either."

"Of course, we're also getting stronger Lo. Right, Ehen?"

"Eh? Right."." Right."

"It looks like your reticence hasn't changed much, Ehen" Bard said.

"Is that so?"

"Well, forget. We can't waste too much time tonight. Because at night our prey is resting. So this is the perfect time to do the looting."

"What kind of opponent are we going to play?"

"Hmm, it seems like the hell.." Bard thought for a while as he observed the faces of the four of us and smiled mockingly.

"You nervous?"

"Damn! Tell us quickly!"

"Good! Alrighty! Don't be so angry. Our opponent today is...,"

We swallow simultaneously.

"Lizardz."
