Will of Сhaos

Chapter 13: Oath and determination

subordinate Goblin Pov:

"(Why am I so weak? Why? WHY ???)" (Me)

I was carrying my master in my arms as I ran back to his home in the Ruins of Blood, my master was badly injured for trying to protect a useless one like me.

My master is strong and smart, when I met him he saved me and gave someone like me a place to belong.

I still remember him telling me to follow him, how he spent hours talking to me, how he made a nest for me to sleep in, how he shared his food with me, how he helped me hunt, and most importantly, how he who is strong treated someone weak like me well.

After he found out the Ruins were dangerous he went hunting for strength.

"Hold on master just but a little gii" (me)

"I'm.... well... Aahhhh.."(master)

I didn't think it could end like this, the hunt was going well, the master with his power managed to trap the Little Spiders and killed them by eating their heads.

The Horned Rabbits were the same, master and smart, and held their paws not to run away and then used some kind of poison to immobilize them and then drink their blood.

The master before killing the spiders and rabbits made me hit them so I could become strong too, even though it's not useful he still helps me get stronger.

"(I have to run faster, I have to let the master rest in a safe place)" (me)

I can't stop crying, even when I was beaten up in the Goblin family I was born into I didn't feel as much pain like the pain I'm feeling in my heart right now.

If I had noticed the Slimes that were approaching, if I could be more useful, my attacks didn't do anything to them, only the fire that the master released from the mouth that was managing to damage them.

"(The master stopped bleeding, is he healing? As I expected from the master.)" (me)

"(Just a little longer and I can let the master recover in his nest)" (me)

The master was strong and managed to dodge the attacks of the Slimes and counterattacked every time, but one of the Slimes noticed me and started attacking me, I couldn't do anything I was too weak.

I thought this time I was going to die, but the master jumped and pushed me hard to the side and was hit in my place, seeing I was paralyzed with fear, not afraid of me dying, but afraid of the master dying because of my weakness.

Before I woke up from my shock, seeing my master hurt because of me, the fight was already over, the injured master continued fighting and managed to win in the end, but before I could celebrate his victory I saw him fall.

I could see his state full of wounds and blood, without thinking I tried to feed the master with the Slimes he killed and some of the rabbit meat, but it didn't seem to be enough, I grabbed him in my arms and ran and keep running until now to take him to a safe place, I can't let him be attacked while he's so weak and wounded.

When I reach the base, I lay the master in his nest and lie down beside him so that he doesn't feel cold.

"Haaa..haaaa..haaaa" (me)

"(I'm so tired of running)" (me)

"Haaaaa..haaa..haa...." (me)

zzzzzz

I ended up sleeping, I had a horrible dream where the master was nowhere and I was alone again.

I don't want this, I don't want to be alone again, I don't want to see the master hurt again, and I don't want to be protected while the master is desperately fighting even though he's hurt.

In the middle of my dream I heard a high-pitched voice full of confidence, it was such a calming voice I felt very safe listening to that voice.

"Wake up... wake up" (master)

"Zzzz...hmmhmmmm...master?" (me)

"Good morning Master" (me)

"Master is alright??? No wounds?" (me)

I can't believe the master is fine, I ran to look all over his body and see if he still had any wounds, but luckily he was fine, only some scars were where the wounds had been before.

The master made me eat before we went back hunting and said we would be more careful today.

After what happened yesterday and the dream I had I'm down, I would get stronger to be able to defend the master, I would never let anyone hurt the master, from now on I would be the one beside the master in all his fights, I will never allow the master to be in danger, I swear to the divinity these Blood Ruins represent.

The Deity that the elder of the Goblin family I was born into spoke of was the deity of this forest.

I swear I will be by the master's side until my last breath and will be strong enough not to be protected again.

---------

Pov Mc:

I can see my subordinate's eyes burning with determination, it must be because of what happened yesterday.

I'll have to figure out where we're going now, I'll try to go to the place I saw the Goblin group that day, maybe talk to my subordinate to find out where they're going to hunt so we can ambush them, let me see before we go the status of a group of my subordinate.

<[ Status of group members:

{ Goblin (Subordinate)

Gender: Woman

Level: 3/15 Exp: 4/17

HP: 19/19 MP: 14/14 STM: 19/19}

]>

She got stronger, it seems that sleeping does the same thing as meditating, after all, she never meditated, but after a night of sleep, she managed to integrate the level she gained, probably meditation is a shortcut to this that I ended up discovering by pure chance.

I would like to see her status in more detail so I could see how I would train her more efficiently in the future.

Ding!

<[ NAME: NONE

GENDER: Woman

LEVEL: 1/15 > 3/15

CONDITION: HEALTHY

TITLES: [ Goblin Genius ] [ Diabolic Leech Subordinate ] ]>

Looks like I can see her status, it must be because she's my subordinate.

Seeing these stats it's easy to see that she is very talented with her hands for her dexterity and must have quick reactions for her speed.

I can't train her right now, but as soon as we move to a new base it will be my priority to train her in technique-focused melee combat, it seems she has a talent for magic too, but I won't be very useful for that kind of training. at the moment since I don't know much myself and am being self-taught in this matter.

"Take me...hunting ground...Goblin." (me)

"Yes master gii" (Goblin subordinate)

After asking her to take me there we left the Ruins and headed to the forest, birds are no longer a problem since they evolve. They seem to go after the Leeches that appear almost every day from the same puddles of red water I was born into.

After we entered the forest we were surprised by a Horned Rabbit, he was using his horn to try to hit us, but I reacted quickly and used [Weak Leech Bite: 5] to grab his horn and keep him in the air with my strength and my subordinate wasted no time and used the short rusty sword to cut through his body, it didn't kill him which is good.

I used it as a source of experience for my skills, using [ Corrosion: 1 ] to gradually erode his horn in my mouth and then biting and using [ Corrosion: 1 ] on everything that got into my mouth, I ended up killing him faster than I imagined but it served the purpose.

Ding! Ding! Ding!

<[ You gained 4 EXP from killing Horned Rabbit ]>

.

<[ Party member gains 2 EXP for Horned Rabbit kills]>

.

.

<[His skill leveled up [Corrosion: 1> 2]]>

.

<[ Your skill leveled up [ Leech: 2 > 3 ] ]>

.

.

<[ His bloodline has become stronger and purer [ Horned Rabbit: 92% > 100% ] ]>

Finally one of the strains reached 100%, but nothing happened, I'm not feeling any different.

Now with that issue solved let's head towards the Goblin hunting area while using [ Detect Weak Presence: 1 ], which I just realized costs one Mana and not STM.

After using the skill I can feel the auras around me in an area of five meters.

With this, I can identify any monster, not just the ones that are wounded or covered in blood.

While talking to my subordinate we continued going to the Goblin hunting area, after forty minutes I found a presence and headed towards him, it was a wolf that was drinking water in a stream.

I asked my subordinate to throw myself on the wolf's back and reluctantly she accepted, it seems she realized that I wanted to do the same thing I did with the Goblin who attacked her when we first met.

Swoosh! Thud!

After hitting the wolf I grab it with my teeth and use [ Weak Paralyzing Poison Secretion: 4 ] about three times before it stops barking and falls to the ground.

For guarantee, I use it twice more [ Weak paralyzing poison secretion: 4 ], and then I call my subordinate to use the sword to strike the wolf barrel, as soon as she has done that I use it twice [ Corrosion: 1 ] to open one hole in your head.

Ding! Ding! Ding!
