Glory Hunt's

Regrets

The goblin came crashing, threw his spear and jumped high, throwing a shield right when I had just finished dodging.

I was forced to roll back and as I was about to get up, the goblin twisted its body, grabbed my leg and grabbed the back of my shirt and slammed me to the side.

Trying to endure the creeping pain, I tried to get up on my feet quickly to regain momentum. but the goblin did not give a chance and instead threw a hit right on the face then a hard kick to the body, making me slam quite far ahead.

From the edge of the eye that was now twitching, I saw him walking calmly, picking up the spear that was now stuck on the ground and his shield.

He then turned to me, waiting on the spot with a big smile "Wake up man, this fight is not finished" he said in a voice that sounded so hoarse and heavy like a smoker.

Different from the two goblins who were now silent at the back with the same grin, watching the leader take over the situation.

Feeling each of these pains made me think back to Muay Thai.

The blood that now flows from a broken nose is one of them.

I smiled feeling the wet red liquid flowing down, rubbing it using the back of the hand, again feeling a feeling that I had not felt long enough.

The feeling when you are desperate to destroy your opponent.

I put the horses up, raised my right leg and both hands in front of my face.

The goblin understood, lunging forward.

This time he twisted the body, swinging the spear from the side that I avoided by lowering my body.

I stepped forward, trying to take a chance when his side was unprotected, hit right on the right ribcage, then continued to deliver some combos to the body and face quickly.

Lastly, kicking his right thigh until he fell to his knees on the ground, turning the body picked up momentum and giving a powerful kick to the head, sending it flying sideways.

Not stopping there, I ran closer, dodging when the spear swung back.

A little late, my body will have a big incision.

The goblin took advantage of me stepping back, slamming a shield right into my right arm that was trying to protect the body.

As hard as I could hold on so as not to fall, grimacing the pain felt the bone crack from the impact and again took a few steps back that was not given by the goblin.

He continued forward lunging, throwing his shield at my right, forcing me to dodge to the side and receive a spear swing on the right side of my head

My vision was a little blurred and swayed, as if an earthquake had occurred.

Trying to refocus, I pulled out a mana shield right in the middle of us to take some distance in order to calm my head. Which I'm sure is now draining fresh blood from the impact earlier.

I'm lucky the goblin still didn't use the sharp side of the spear to kill me immediately. But at the same time worried, know that this goblin just seems to have fun.

When he got bored, that's when I lost my life.

I have to figure out a way to at least make her faint in order to go look for them.

"What's human? Just what is your ability? You shouldn't be wandering around here if that's all you can do.

If I really wanted to kill you, you'd be dead from the start. Come on, don't bore me, you know what's gonna happen, right?" The challenge while showing the same grin.

Damn, I know I can't argue with that, but hearing it directly makes my blood boil.

Is it just this way?

How can I help the three of them if I can't face the goblins?

I can't go on like this, but what can I do?

Think Zent, don't let that goblin humiliate you.

Uh!

"For the size of the monster, you're smart to talk yes. I didn't think primitive creatures like you could use your mouth that well, I thought you only used it to eat rotten food" My pot that managed to make the goblin's eyes shudder withholding emotions, I thought, seen from his grasp on the hardened spear "Why? You don't take it? Admit it, you're just a lowly creature under humans"

He immediately jumped up, threw his shield at me which I avoided to the left side, then continued to roll forward as he pierced the spear towards me.

Not until a second later, he had turned around while swinging the spear that I held using the left foot. Successfully made him jerk in shock when he saw a small-sized shield on the outer side of the foot.

A thunderous sound was created, accompanied by a powerful burst of energy, sending a puff of dust flying through the air. The two goblins in the back had to protect their eyes from getting dust while trying to figure out if their leader survived.

When finally the dust slowly disappeared, not far ahead, they saw the huge goblin coughed up blood.

He fell limp forward, smashing against the ground forcefully in the absence of energy to be able to get up.

On the side, I gasped for breath, the ferocity after expending such a huge energy that I had no idea I had.

I'm just trying to change the energy that makes me able to move fast and jump high as a force that actually gives me an energy explosion if centered in just one point.

I never thought my technique would work.

Maybe I am lucky, but unfortunately not with the goblin who is now lying limp in front of me.

Did I just manage to face the first opponent in this world?

But, when I was just about to feel proud of myself, a word made me feel like I was hit by a sledgehammer. My eyes were wide open to hear it with my heart racing and breathing becoming more and more irregular.

"Dad!" Shouted the two goblins who were now running towards the big goblin "Dad! I open your eyes! Daddy!"

Daddy's?

So these two small-sized goblins were indeed small children?

What's.. I-I just killed...

I could think no more, my head was spinning as though a whirlwind was raging within it, making my body fall limp to the ground, unable to gather even the slightest strength just to stand up.

I-I just killed.. Killed an old man in... In front of their children.

Huh..

heh..

heh..

Whahuh? It can't be, can it?

L'm.. Kills.. L'm.. No. gabe. He's alive, I didn't hit that hard, I'm sorry. Me, I-I don't know..

"You! You killed our father! I just want to take us for a walk after a month of work! Why did you kill him! YOU'RE A FUCKING HUMAN!" One of those I can't see.

Later, crying.

That's all I can hear in the middle of this forest.

A loud scream asked the father to come back to them, a scream that made my chest feel slashed by thousands of daggers, then doused by acid and scratched looking for a feeling, a feeling called regret.

I don't know what to think, I really thought they were just goblin warriors who were temporarily patrolling instead of one small family. I thought, those two goblins are just small goblins like behind the scenes..

"Then, if they were goblins that you thought were the same as in the game, you wouldn't feel guilty?"

No, I, I guess.. They are monsters, evil creatures that must be killed.

"They and we don't make any difference you know? Even humans are far worse than them. Then, are we not the monser who deserves to be killed like you said?

Which is worth destroying?"

I-i'm.. Unknow it. I don't know! I DON'T KNOW!!

"Zenti! Zent! ZENT!!"

I looked to the side, finding Celine standing there with her two best friends staring at the two young goblins with sympathy.

Rio closed his mouth using both hands, unable to contain the shock while Rayven knelt beside them, paying a tribute to the father.

"Let's go home"
