Legacy Firing

Charlus looked at the direction of the colony. He was expecting multiple goblins to come. So he quickly hid in the bushes. If there weren't too many goblins, he would go in for the kills.

Charlus saw 7 goblins running towards his location. All of the goblins had come. Charlus guessed that the goblin had not called them with a war cry but a distress call. Charlus didn't want to fight them and stayed still.

The goblins came but didn't find their companions. They looked around until they looked at the bush that Charlus was hiding in. They quickly went towards it.

"How did they find out?"

Charlus still stayed still. He waited for the goblin to come close. The moment it came close, he stabbed it with his pocket knife. The goblin vanished. However, Charlus was exposed. he saw the 6 goblins turn towards him.

All of them jumped towards Charlus together. Charlus held his pocket knife tightly and tried to kill them first.

[-2 HP]

[-1 HP]

[-5 HP]

[-9 HP]

[-3 HP]

By the time Charlus killed just 4 goblins, 40 HP vanished. Charlus roared in anger.

"Damn you goblins!"

Charlus started stabbing the remaining goblins and killed them. He was finally left alone in the forest, but he wasn't happy.

Charlus was lucky that all the goblins he faced would die to a single hit, but he had still lost almost half his HP fighting them. He felt scared.

"What should I do? Can I heal quickly? Or increase my HP? How can I do that?"

He decided to put a point in Vit to check if it increased his HP. To his excitement, it increased by 10 points. Charlus put the rest of his points in Vit. After all, his life was the most important.

"Maybe I don't need to go after the Goblin Chieftain. The Quest did not specify any penalties for failure."

Charlus decided to go back to his house instead of risking his life and fighting the Goblin Chieftain. 6 goblins were deadly, who knew how strong a Goblin Chieftain was?

"Roar!!!"

Charlus heard a voice that seemed very similar to the shout of the goblin that called all the goblins. He looked and saw who it was.

It was a goblin that was dressed in a loin cloth. It had a necklace made of fangs and a club in its hand.

[Goblin Chieftain Lvl 4]

"Shit!"

--> Fight

--> Run

Charlus had no hesitation. He started running. However, the Goblin Chieftain was so agile that it was closing in on him. Charlus was able to notice this.

"If I run, I will lose energy. If I fight now, I won't be completely out of energy."

Charlus deliberately slowed down. The moment the Goblin Chieftain came near him, he stabbed it. he was stabbing from the front without looking, so he only grazed the chest.

[17 Damage]

Charlus rolled on the ground, coming to a stop. The Goblin Chieftain went too quickly and stopped a few meters away from him. Charlus looked at the Goblin Chieftain and found something new.

Charlus needed to hit the Goblin Chieftain 5 more times. Charlus charged towards the Goblin Chieftain. The Goblin Chieftain also charged towards Charlus. The goblin smacked Charlus' arm with the club in its hand while Charlus stabbed its other hand.

[17 Damage]

[-11 HP]

Charlus initially had 53 HP. After putting 5 points in Vit, that became 103. After this blow to his hand, his HP came down to 92. But the HP of the Goblin Chieftain went down to 66. Charlus was confident that as long as he hit the Goblin Chieftain as many times as he was hit, he would kill it without dying.

The goblin was slightly weaker but it charged. Charlus' could feel his hand becoming numb after the next exchange. However, Charlus ignored it and went in again.

When the Goblin Chieftain's HP became less than 20, it became afraid. It turned back to run away. Charlus didn't have the energy to chase it. So he threw the pocket knife in his hand at it.

"Thud!"

Charlus fainted. The adrenaline had wore down and he no longer had any more energy. So he collapsed in the forest.
