《Goblin Conqueror》
Chapter 1 - dont die right away
Huh?....
Where am I?
"Hello my champion, you must be confused, as what are you doing in such a dark place"(Loud Voice)
"Who the fuck are you?!"(Hero?)
"Calm down, I mean you no harm, I am a God and I have summoned you because I am in great need of a champion that will unite and save my people."(God)
"Ah! I have read this kind of set up before, no need to explain the details, what do I get in return?"(Hero?)
"Don''t be shocked, you died, but I will give you another life, but in return, you must save my people."(God)
"Me, dead? I remember going to sleep and when I opened my eyes I was here"(Hero?)
"Yes, you died of a heart attack, you were having a nightmare then your heart couldn''t take it and you died"(God)
"That is so stupid! I am 25-year-old male! Healthy and fit! What kind of nightmare causes a heart attack! A nightmare that I don''t even remember!"(Hero?)
"It would be better if you don''t remember"(God)
"I need to know, it is important for me to know the dream that took my life!"(Hero?)
"Very well, your dream is about you being raped by a bunch of Minotaurs, and Orcs, the details I will leave to your imagination, it is rather unpleasant to explain."(God)
Our hero doesn''t know how to react and become speechless.
"That''s!..."(Hero?)
His thoughts: Crap that''s is something that would really kill me...
"Now then I will summon you shortly, but first let me explain some stuff, the world you are going to is called Gaia. It is a world created by the most powerful Gods in existence, and for that reason, magic exists in this world. Gaia.... a wondrous world with many magical creatures such as the dreadful dragons that rule the sky, fearsome beast that roam the world, Different races that battle for supremacy! Lastly the Titans a race whose power rivals the Gods!"(God)
"Wow, that is amazing! Now I am excited, dying isn''t that bad after all! So what would I be? Human? Nah that''s too boring, maybe elf? A very good looking elf male hahaha, or maybe a strong beast of the forest! That wouldn''t be too bad"(Hero)
"Sorry to disappoint you, but among the Gods that created Gaia I am the weakest, actually the truth is I''m not supposed to be part of Gaia project, but those Gods think that it would be too boring, so they decided to invite me... most of them probably thinking "Let him join, my people need some source of easy food" they mock me... so I decided to prove them wrong! That I will create the powerful race, one with the strength to rule Gaia! So I worked hard for hundred of years! Finally, I was able to create a race that reproduced faster than anyone! Could grow stronger than anyone. If only they could survive the early stage of their life! And fight together!... but......... my power is limited I couldn''t create a strong race right from the start... they are so weak and stupid... probably the weakest of all the races, conquering is out of the question, surviving itself is hard enough for them... only a few survive the first 5 years of their life and very few evolve... the only reason they won''t go extinct is they reproduce fast, and are scattered throughout the land... the strong ones create clans but they fight among each other for small piece of hunting territory... others are mercenaries of war... or should i say disposable pawns of other races... the weak ones found are slaves... and those that wonder the forest are treated as source of experience for low level races... That''s why I thought of a solution, they will need a leader that can unite and lead them, so I asked my good friend, the God of your world to lend me a great soul that can lead my people, and that is you..."(God)

"Uhhhhh....That is a rather difficult task, that you are asking me to... how do you expect me to achieve that?... I mean why choose me? I''m a 25-year-old male that works at McDonald''s, you sure didn''t make a mistake? I mean why not pick a military leader through history or a king maybe... there are a lot of them such as Alexander the great, Julius Ceasar, Oda Nobunaga, etc why to choose me?" (Hero?)
"Very true those are some great leaders, I had considered some of them, but it''s not good enough... I need someone better, then my friend, the God of your world recommended someone who have the combined knowledge of those great leaders, someone who actually dreamed of facing such path, the path of war and conquer, that''s you, a war freak AKA war otaku!"(God)
"Hehehe as expected of a God looks like you did your research, guess you got the best champion you can get, now then what is the name of your race you wanted me to save?"(Hero)
"My people race are The mighty Goblin race!"(Goblin God) he says it, in such a proud voice....
Our hero becomes speechless again... his thoughts: what the hell did I get myself into...
"Tha...tha... that means, I will be a go... go... go..goblin?(Hero)
"Yes you will be a goblin though most likely your evolution will be a different one just because you will have my blessing"(Goblin God)
Damn it! No wonder your people are being bullied, almost all light novels that I read, games that I play, manga and anime that I watch, goblins are always getting pick on! Although there are a few exceptions... This is going to be difficult, but at the same time very challenging hehe finally my hobby will be put to good use, I just hope I don''t turn out to be too ugly I wanted to enjoy my self with girls too!(Hero thoughts)
"Alright, lets do this."(Hero)
"Good, get ready, i will give you the knowledge of their language so you will have no problems communicating with your fellow goblins, now I will teleport you immediately, it will be in a random place coz my power isn''t too great, lets just hope its not gonna be in the middle of the ocean or a volcano, it would be a pain if you died right away"
"BY THE POWER GRANTED TO ME I SUMMON YOU TO GAIA AS A GOBLIN!"(Goblin God)
Flash of brightness.....
Huh? He is not in a much of a hurry is he... oh well...
Choose a name champion.
Huh? Name..... I don''t really like my name.... and since I am going to be in a different world it must be different as well, hmmm mmm it needs to be cool and fitting of leader or a king.
Ok then "Leonidas!"
I am so lame hahaha but who cares no one knows him in that world anyways hahaha.
You will be called Leonidas AKA GobiLeo
Choose a basic skill to start its a gift from the weak goblin god.
Sword level1
Axe level1
Club level1
Spear level1
Level 1.... well I will take what I can "Spear level1!"
Completed.
That is how I was summoned as a goblin to the world called Gaia!
End of chapter.
Chapter 2 Things to do
Ok, so where am I?
Hmmm...despite it being so dark - I can still see clearly, being nocturnal, must be a goblin trait.
Ohhh I am butt naked, I will need to do something about this later.
I observe the area for about a minute.
This must be a cave, it''s very small for a cave, though it''s a perfect fit for me.
I will use it as a base, for now, it''s not a bad start.
Alright, let''s start planning...
First I need to meditate...
I usually did this in my previous life in order to clear my mind and handle difficult situations.
While meditating...
[Leonidas AKA GobiLeo - level 1]
[Race - Goblin]
[Skills]
[Spear Mastery - level 1]
[Blessing of the Goblin God]
What is this? My Stats?
This is some pretty cool stuff, it will be very useful.
While pondering the situation I was in, I decide to do a few things.
First, I need to know my body''s limits:
So after a light warm up. I start to do a little bit of shadow boxing and because I did extensive kickboxing training in my previous life, despite being a goblin, it was very easy for me. My old training routine enabled me to familiarize myself with the movement a goblin.
This body is very weak physically, I would say about the strength of a kid aged around 8-10, but at least I am very agile, well I''m not expecting much for a goblin.
The second part of the plan meant going outside to search for water and food.
Oh, lucky me, a river - right outside my cave.
I used the reflection of the river to check how I look like. As I thought, I am ugly as fuck...
Green skin, pointy ears and two sharp canines.
Anyways I drank my fill, but this won''t be enough.
I start by searching for a thick tree branch and after finding one, around 4ft long, which looks very tough I decide it will do for now.
I sharpen the spear''s edge using rocks near the river.
[Weapon Crafting - level 1 - can craft primitive weapon]
Another weird text.....
This is one of the reasons why I chose the Spear Mastery skill because a spear is relativity easy to make, a club wouldn''t be too bad either. However, a spear is far more effective when comes to killing.
Right after I finish crafting the spear, I start moving to search for prey.
While searching I avoid some scary looking beast, a Giant Spider, packs of wolves and a giant snake/anaconda lol. Damn this place is dangerous, I need to move very cautiously, one mistake could lead to death.
It took around 1 hour, but finally, I was able to spot my first prey. Yes, it was rabbit again......
It''s a weird looking rabbit, it has a spike on its back, like its spine is the spike and it is also popping out, it looks very sharp too. I''m assuming this rabbit would be very agile, chasing it down would be a bad idea. I need to utilize a surprise attack.
I move very slowly making as little noise as possible, I hide in a bush which is close to the target and ready my wooden spear, with this the ambush was set, I just need to make it move in attacking reach.
I grab a stone on the ground and then throw in front of it, after that the rabbit raises its ears, and the spike on its back starts pointing upward, it starts running towards my direction, perfect, just as planned, and when it is within my range, I immediately jump out stab it in the side of its body, it was successful, the rabbit died right away.
Stolen content warning: this tale belongs on Royal Road. Report any occurrences elsewhere.
Level up!
[GobiLeo - level 2]
I ate the rabbit raw, at first I was hesitant, but I needed it to survive, surprisingly it is very tasty. I took the spike and hide inside my cave.
My next target is a black rabbit although this one is a bit different, it doesn''t have a spike on its back, I climbed the tree to get a better look.
It''s in a group of 6, looks like they are eating, lemme have a better look... gulp... they are eating a deer! These are no ordinary rabbits, they have sharp claws and sharp teeth, they are carnivores, due to their numbers I wouldn''t stand a chance. I need to get out of here, but.
The tree branch I was in snaps, and I drop to the ground.
Ughhhhhh I stand up, right in front of me are 6 rabbits with sharp claws and red glowing eyes...
Shit!
I ran as fast as I can without stopping , it took me a while but I was able to out run them, damn I need to avoid those.
I hunt down 5 more Spike rabbits until night time, they are actually quite common - in the area around my cave.
I level up to level 3 then 4, apparently levelling gets harder as you level higher, at level 1 I needed to kill 1 spike rabbit, at level 2 I need to kill 2 spike rabbits, at level 3 I needed 3, if theory is correct in order to level from 99-100 I would need 99 rabbits to kill... That''s a lot of rabbits..... I took the spikes and hide them inside my cave, they could be useful later on.
I gather a bunch of leaves outside and after laying them down in my cave I use them as a bedding for now after that, I went to sleep.
It''s been a week now since I was summoned.
I am now level 15, I notice getting a level is hardly noticeable, but after level 10 my fighting capability improved by a bit.
Right now I don''t need an ambush to hunt spike rabbits, I am agile enough to catch them in a chase. I also hunt the small snakes and bats that wonder into my cave and I take the poison sacks from the snakes and hide them inside my cave.
My daily routine,
In the morning I would practice wielding my spear to get the blood flowing. Afterward, I eat from my stockpile of food - created from the food I save up every other day. Then the hunt begins.
However, today is different I will be hunting further away and search for new prey.
Hmmm, there not much prey around here I need to go even further.
As I was searching, I saw a group of people.....
Humans.....
1 adult male holding a shield and sword wearing leather armor, two adult females with short swords and who wear leather armor, and a brat who age looked around 10-12, they seem to be hunting a monster.
Out of curiosity, I tail them very carefully. It seems that they are helping the brat to level up, they corner their prey and inflict a reasonable amount of damage but don''t kill it - then they let the brat deal the finishing blow.
An hour passes, I start to become bored.
Ohhh finally, something has caused them to become excited.
"Boss this is a good one hehe"(adult male)
"Great go catch it! That should grant a huge boost to my level"(human brat)
They all nod and proceed to their target.
Hmmmmn?....
Wait.... Isn''t that a goblin?
End of chapter.
Chapter 3 - Outsmart
Crap... What should I do... That''s a goblin...
Should I save it?
No that¡¯s too risky, Against 4 humans I''m as good as dead... I know this coz I was a human too, also with my current body I stand no chance in a fight, and it looks like these are no ordinary humans, they seem to be well trained... But I can''t just leave that goblin to die, I was sent here to save the goblin race after all... Damn it.
Wait, I need to relax. I have been in worse situations in my previous life during gaming, and I have been in tournaments and won every single game - no matter what the odds is.... This is no different it¡¯s just another battle for me to win!... I know this is totally wrong comparing game to real life situation....Fuck it I need to trust my ability.
I took a deep breath and start to calm myself...
Pewwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww... (breathing)
Okay, I should do it just like I always do.
First, know their strength which is obviously the man with the shield.
However, the two women seem to be amateurs.
Then know their weakness, hehe the brat...
I definitely won''t win in a head on clash...
I scan my surroundings for anything that I can use¡
Then I find something.
Hehehe perfect...
I closed my eyes, open my mind, and study my situation - I can¡¯t waste any time.
Okay, I have a plan.
The chances are low but this is all I have...
I can do this.
The human brat orders his underlings to catch the goblin.
This is my chance...
The 3 underlings surround the helpless goblin then slash it in the arm and once in the leg, weakening it for the brat to kill - but they just made a big mistake. With the brat Unguarded, I start to move as fast as I possibly can.
"Boss, we caught it!"(Human male)
"Uwahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh help me!" (Human brat) who starts to scream after I stab him in the leg and with this, he is not much of a threat.
"Huh? Boss!?"(Human male)
"Uwahhhh it hurts, help me! Awaaaaaaaaah!"(Human brat) screeches while crying his lungs out. Hehehe this is really good, looks like he''s a kid from a rich family, perfect for a hostage.
"You better stay where you are or I will gut him"(GobiLeo)
Huh? Another goblin? (human male thoughts)
"You stupid goblin, let him go and I will spare your life!"(Human male)
"Hahaha looks like you don''t understand the situation, as far as I know, I''m the one who''s holding a spear pointing at this kid''s ass, you better watch it, my hand might slip and I might skewer this kid with my spear."(GobiLeo)
"Shit, what do you want!?"(Human Male)
"Hehehe now we''re talking, first let the goblin go!"(GobiLeo)
"No, you let him go first!"(Human male)
"Huh? I thought you understood the situation already, let me enlighten you, just think which one of us has the most to lose in this situation. If this kid dies, I bet your Lord will probably hang you, and that''s just a lowly goblin you are holding. You should be thankful I''m willing to trade, I will probably gain more if ask for a ransom instead."(GobiLeo)
"Fine here, have him!" the (Human male) says, as he lets go of the poor goblin.
This story has been taken without authorization. Report any sightings."Come over here and stay behind me"(GobiLeo)
The wounded goblin nods and moves behind me.
"Now it''s your turn to let the boss go!"(Human Male)
"Not yet, next I want you to drop your weapons and go to the tree behind you!"(GobiLeo)
"Let''s go"(Human male)
The two females nod and follow him.
Fucking damn it, I can¡¯t believe this, a lowly goblin trying to outsmart me? Just you wait once I have got the boss, I will fucking kill you. I''m sure I can kill you with my bare hands, but I just don''t understand why he only wants us to move this much. Hehehe even with this distance I can still catch you, you''re just a stupid goblin after all. I will obey him for now but he will pay later.
"Hey, when I say run. You run as fast as you can, no matter how much your leg hurts. You must run or you die!"(GobiLeo) whispers
The goblin nods but you can see he is determined not to die here, hehe looks like this one is a tough goblin. I''m hungry I need to end this now and hunt after.
"Brat move!"(GobiLeo)
"Bu...but... my leg hurts, sniff snif snif...."(Brat)
"MOVE OR YOU DIE" (GobiLeo) roars.
"Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhh you monster!"says the (Brat) while running as fast as he can.
Hehehe looks like his leg doesn''t hurt that much after all.
"NOW! Kill that fucking goblin!"(Human male)
"Huh?"(Human male then he looked up)
I throw my spear at the tree behind the humans aiming for the bee hive that is nesting in the tree.
Wooosh, the hive drop right on the top of their heads, and the magic started to unfold. A swarm of bees flew all over stinging them vigorously.
Uwaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhh, stay away!
Shit..............Shit...............Shit...................!
It hurts, helps me, help!
The humans scream in pain, looks like the bees of this world are far more dangerous than bees on Earth. Hehehe even better for me.
"Now, Run!"
The poor goblin and I run as fast as possible...
We run for at-least 10 mins non-stop... However, the goblin seems to be really weak from his wounds and he passes out, good thing though is that the humans seem to have given up on chasing us. Well, I''m expecting that with those bees and the brat being wounded they should be very busy. I have to carry the wounded goblin all the way to my cave.
I clean his wounds and put some clean leaves the I decide to go out hunting to get some food for the both of us.
When I return from hunting, the goblin is awake.
"How are you feeling?"(GobiLeo)
"I''m okay now, thank you..."
"Good, now you eat"(GobiLeo)
"Why did you help me?"
"Huh? I don''t see any reason not to help my own kind?"(GobiLeo)
"But still....What is your name?!"
"My name is Leonidas, Call me GobiLeo, you?"(GobiLeo)
"I... I am GORA, I owe you my life, I have nothing in return to give except pledging my loyalty to you! Please, I beg, let me join you!" (GobiGora)
"Huh....I don''t really understand, to go that far. Uhhhhhhh okay, I accept your pledge, now eat! You need to recover" (GobiLeo)
"Thank you"(GobiGora)
That''s how I met my first minion.
End Of Chapter
Chapter 4 stuff and things.
The next day I do my usual morning training, and then go out hunting. GobiGora though was unable to come with me, although he insisted on helping, I told him (rather strictly) that he first has to recover from his injury before he could join me during hunting. After all hunting with an injury makes you .
Now that I think about it, if I ever get injured and I am unable to hunt - I could die. I need to be careful. I wonder if I can learn a healing spell, it would be really useful.
I hunt, 12 dead rabbits later and I decide to stop. I eat 3 of the rabbits myself and give 2 to GobiGora, the rest I will save for later. It seems that he doesn''t ordinarily eat rabbits, he said it is too hard for him to hunt one, he normally eat frogs, mushrooms, and small lizards. I need to teach him how to hunt a rabbit later.
After eating I choose to return to the area where I saved GobiGora. I''m not sure why but maybe the humans left something I could use.
After a brief journey, I arrive at the area, I scan the area scouting for anything unusual. I find it, traces of blood, it must be from the brat. I follow the trail and not too far ahead what I see are dead bodies...
8 wolves, and the 4 humans from yesterday. Looks like the wolves caught the smell of their blood and hunted them but were killed instead. Due to their action unlike the wolves from earth, these wolves are far more aggressive and foolhardy most importantly willing to attack humans (and probably goblins as well) ¨C the wolves were a serious threat. Disregarding checking the first 3 humans as judging by their wounds died coz of the wolves. However, the male human injuries aren¡¯t fatal but looking at his swollen face, he must have died by the stings of the bees... Those bees are dangerous, need to keep that in mind. He really was a tough guy killing these wolves are no easy task. Wait that could have been us lying dead... Thinking about it those wolves could have tracked us instead... Well, I need to as much luck as possible thinking how weak I am right now.
I close my eyes for a moment and apologize to the deceased. I used to be a human after all.
"I am sorry but, I will do everything that I need to be done to survive"
After that, I looted the bodies.
Most of the armor are all worn out by the wolves attack, but the weapons and the shield are all in good condition... and something else, a book!
I can''t really read it... As I open the book and begin to read the first page my hands start to glow and then...
level 15 requirement meets, Do you want to learn Taming skill? Doing this will consume the book.
Yes No
....I pause for a sec.
Then choose yes...
Taming level 1 - 1% chance of taming a beast/creature that is weaker than you, chances of taming increase if the target is unconscious. Tamed limit 1
If you discover this narrative on Amazon, be aware that it has been stolen. Please report the violation.
Wow, this is great, the chances are rather low but this will boost my chances of survival! Looks like this is the reason why the human kid was trying to level up so quickly.
Next...
I skin the wolves using the short sword. Before I couldn''t skin any animals due to lack of sharp tools. Later I will turn these hides into leathers and then craft armor and clothes. I have been naked for quite a while now, not that I care much but the extra protection is a necessity in this world. Collecting this amount of hides should be enough for at least 4 -7 goblins. The meat smells bad though, but as a goblin, my stomach should be able to handle rotten meats, though I would rather hunt rabbits than eat this, it¡¯s not too appetizing for me, and I¡¯m not struggling with food so I''m leaving it. After that, I went back to my cave carrying a whole bunch of stuff with me...
Damn, this is heavy... (I complained)...
Arriving at the cave GobiGora greeted me with a shock expression plastered on his face...
"Boss!" (GobiGora)
Oh yah, I forgot to mention he started calling me boss...
"Boss that¡¯s a lot of stuff! Where did you get all of that?"(GobiGora)
I explain it to him.
"Wow so lucky, boss!"(GobiGora)
"I know, heh? Are you hungry? Let¡¯s eat now, here have some rabbit meat." (GobiLeo)
"Okay boss thank so much" says (Gora) while he stuffs the rabbit meat in his mouth
Hehehe eat as much as you can for now, later once you recover I will do lots of experiments with you and see how I can boost your potential bahahahaha!
After eating we went to sleep.
The next morning I did the usual training, then I start processing the rawhides.
First I clean it removing the excess meat that is still attached to the skin then I start tanning it under the sun.
Then I went out hunting.
Nothing much really happened aside from trying to tame some spiked rabbit. 1% chance is really low, it always failed and after trying it a few times I was exhausted, so it does consume stamina... I''ll try again next time. After that I return to the cave.
I''m tired, I finish eating and go to sleep right away.

Chapter 5 - Mommy?
It''s been 4 days since I saved GobiGora from the humans.
He has fully recovered from his injuries, so I decided to let him come with me on hunting.
But first he needs a weapon, he doesn''t like to use the short sword so I ask him what weapon he would prefer to use.
"I want big weapon, boss big weapon is scary and strong!"(GobiGora)
"Eh? Are you sure? It will be heavy."(GobiLeo)
"GobiGora is strong! Don''t worry boss." (GobiGora)
"Alright, Wait here"(GobiLeo)
I search for the materials I''m gonna use.
"Ok boss."(GobiGora)
It takes us quite a while but we manage to find a suitable wood for the weapon I have in mind.
It''s a really thick wood, much thicker than my wooden spear. After that, we head back to base.
I use the short sword to shape it into a club. After 30 mins I finish crafting.
Huge Wooden Club crafted, weapon crafting level up!
The club was quite big, I don''t think a normal goblin could wield it. Well, let''s see...
"Hey Gora! Come here, I''ve finished your weapon!"(GobiLeo)
"Thanks boss, let me try it!" says GobiGora while he rushes towards me.
He quickly takes the club from me and starts swinging it.
It was pathetic.............
He is barely able to swing it, whenever he does swing it - he loses his balance... I was hoping that he might be strong since he is stupid, coz that''s usually the case. Well, nevermind.
"Damn it, why it is too heavy for me.... Huf...Huf...Huf" pants GobiGora.
He spares me a glance, he seems to be worried...
"Gora brings it here"(GobiLeo)
"Sorry boss, please wait! I can sti...." exclaims GobiGora.
"Shhhhh, don''t worry about it, leave it to me, I''ll make you a stronger but much lighter weapon" GobiLeo speaks in a soothing tone.
"Ok boss..." says Gora he seems to be sad.
I take the club and go to my storage space grabbing some stuff then I start crafting.
Little by little I modify it into a smaller club, once I get the shape and size I want, I nail the biggest and nastiest spike I have into the edge of the club, piercing it across. Then I take some leather and wrap it around the handle. GobiGora watches me while I make his club, like a kid, he is staring in amazement.
Spike Club+5 Crafted, weapon crafting level up!
Hehehe it turned out quite well.
"Gora here give it a try" GobiLeo says while a hand the club over to GobiGora.
Without wasting time, Gora starts to swing the club like a mad man.
"Boss this is great!"(GobiGora)
"Glad you like it"(GobiLeo)
"Thank you boss! You''re the best!"(GobiGora)
"Hehehe lets go hunting now"(GobiLeo)
"Ok boss!"(GobiGora)
It''s already midday I wonder how much we can hunt.
As usual, we avoid dangerous beasts, not that we can''t hunt them yet. But I don''t really want to take the risk, even if we somehow manage to hunt one, I don''t think we¡¯ll be able to do it unscratched. An injury is fatal, here in the wilderness there is no one to save us. So I need to be extra careful.
We found a lone deer who seems to be got separated from its group. I quickly grab GobiGora who stupidly wants to charge at it right away. I told him to be quiet and explained the plan.
With its four leg and slender body I''m assuming it''s faster than a goblin. So I have to use an ambush, I told Gora that I will do the ambush while he will scare it off from the other side. I made it clear that he needs to make sure it would run towards me.
After everything was setup, I signal Gora to charge at it.
"Run you stupid deer! RAWR!!!"(GobiGora)
I don''t think you have the right to call anyone stupid... I think to myself, but anyway, let¡¯s get back to business.
The deer runs towards me, it really is fast, I nearly miss the ambush. Somehow I manage to stab it in the leg, the deer stumbles to the ground. Then Gora still charging at it smashes the head with his club, shattering the skull, blood scatters all over his body and yes it died.... Damn this guy is brutal.
This book was originally published on Royal Road. Check it out there for the real experience.
"Boss I killed it!" It''s my first time killing a deer!"(GobiGora)
"Hehehe well done."(GobiLeo)
Our hunt continues till the sun went down, we hunt 2 more deer a total of 3, 9 spiked rabbits and 4 small snake.
Wow. this is really good we started the hunt late but we manage to get more than I usually gain in 1 whole day.
"Good job today Gora, you''re a big help."(GobiLeo)
"Really, but most of the time all I do is scare our target then because I''m slow and I cannot catch most of them and they escape."(GobiGora)
It¡¯s not because you are slow they escape coz you mindlessly charge at them like a mad dog!
I know, I shouldn''t say that.
"Yes, you really are a big help! without you, we wouldn''t be able to hunt this much. So don''t worry much about it, eventually you will learn and be more effective." I say tapping Gora on the shoulder
"Tha...thanks boss..."(GobiGora) with teary eyes
He seems to become really emotional every time I commended him. I wonder what happened to him in the past.
"Yosh! Let''s head back, we''re having a feast!"(GobiLeo)
"Ok boss!(GobiGora)
At the base I started a fire using a flint I found nearby, I really don''t want to do it, coz it might attract some dangerous animals or people. But I''ve been craving for some cooked food for a while now! So I did it anyways, I''ll just deal with it if ever.
"Wow boss, this taste a lot better!"(GobiGora)
"Hehe I know right?"(GobiLeo)
Suddenly something big crashes close to us.
Huh???
After the dust disappear....
We behold a huge beast, actually it''s more than just a beast...
IT''S A FUCKING DRAGON!
The Dragon stared at me for a moment.
Dragon''s thoughts:
A goblin? Huh? It''s no ordinary goblin, he emits a very bright aura around him, hehehe he will do. Not like I have a choice.
The Dragon seems to be really weak, it is covered with multiple wounds, numerous arrows and spears are stuck in its body, one of the legs is frozen and an arrow is stuck in one of its eyes. I want to help it, but I¡¯m scared, so I can¡¯t say a word at all.
"I...."(GobiLeo)
"Take care of my child, treat her well and I''m sure it will benefit you."(Dragon)
"O...Okay...." (GobiLeo)
The Dragon opens its mouth, dropping an egg, almost the size of a goblin.
Dragon''s thoughts:
I wanted to watch over you as you grow up, teach you how to fly and hunt, travel and show you this amazing world has to offer. But this is the only thing I can do right now, I hope you can have lots of adventure with this creature, Goodbye my love, goodbye my child...
A very bright light emits throughout its body, then slowly, pieces by pieces its body disseminate through the wind. The arrows and spears that were stuck to it fell to the ground. When everything is clear a red orb floats in the air, it is magical and Beautiful.
The death of a dragon.
"Boss what just happened?"(GobiGora)
"Who knows"(GobiLeo)
I grab the red orb, then it turns into a gem. I can barely hold it in my hand, this will probably fetch a good price.
I sit down in front of the egg thinking what to with it.
After a few second...
The egg cracks...
Then slowly, it hatches...
A red baby dragon with two cute little wings beholds my sight, slowly its eyes open.
The baby dragon tilts its head while staring at me then,
"Are you my mommy?"(Says the baby dragon in a cute voice of a little girl)
GobiLeo jaw drops...

chapter 6 - Ceara
PR by TeaAddict777
"Mommy?" says the baby dragon while she stares at me.
From the voice it''s a girl, I''m sure.
"Sorry uh... but I''m not your Mommy"(GobiLeo)
"Then are you my Daddy?"(Baby Dragon)
What should I say¡
As far as I remember that huge dragon, kinda entrusted me with this child... A child almost the same size as me...
I''ll just go with it, I also do feel bad about this child losing her mother right after she''s born. It wasn''t the worst idea ever, being the adopted father of a dragon? Right. It''s even kinda cool when I think about it. Totally.
"Well you could say that...."(GobiLeo)
"Daddy!" says the Baby Dragon as she jumps on me.
"Eheheh you''re heavy"(GobiLeo)
"Sorry Daddy, by the way Daddy where''s Mommy?"(Baby Dragon)
I pause for a second, I don''t really know what to say. Also how is a new born able to talk already?
Oh yeah, because it is a dragon! I kinda forgot that. Let''s just give her a suitable answer for now.
"You''re Mommy is somewhere, up there (I point my finger in the sky), watching over you." I tell her with a smile.
"Really? When am I going to see her?"(Baby Dragon)
Damn it, this is really difficult, I wasn''t prepared for this... Let''s change the subject.
"I don''t know... Hey stop asking so many questions, here have some food" I say passing obver a cooked rabbit meat.
She swallows it whole...
"Yum yum! Daddy, I want another one!"(baby dragon)
"Sure, have some more."(GobiLeo)
I pass her another rabbit.
"Boss, is she your daughter?"(GobiGora)
Of course this bloody idiot doesn''t know what''s going on...
"Yes, she is my daughter, so you must protect her"(GobiLeo)
"Then that huge dragon before was your wife?"(GobiGora)
Damn, if all the goblins are as dumb as this guy, I might as well quit being their hero.........
"Come over here Gora."(GobiLeo)
"Ok boss" Says Gora as he walk towards me.
"From now on she''s my daughter, the details doesn''t really matter, so don''t worry about it too much and do not mention her mother to her okay?"(I whispered)
"Ok boss, I understand!"(GobiGora)
This content has been misappropriated from Royal Road; report any instances of this story if found elsewhere.
I''m worried if he actually understand...
"Boss I think she needs a name."(GobiGora)
Oh right, I need to name her....
"Okay, I''m just thinking about it, hmmmmmmmn"(GobiLeo)
A name... A female name... A female dragon name... What would be a badass name for her...
A sat down and explore my memory of my past life, I have read bunch of stories, from novels to manga, fantasy movies and anime... Let''s see...
I could name her Akane in Japanese meaning Red, but I''m not really Japanese though I do enjoy Japanese culture and also I don''t think it is suitable in this era... Ah I know a good one!
The baby dragon is still eating, then I stand up and move close to her and caress her head...
"Ceara"(GobiLeo)
"Ceara?"(Ceara/baby dragon)
"Yes that is your name"(Gobileo with a smile)
"Ceara... I like it daddy! Ehehe"(Ceara)
Ceara from one of the books that I read meaning "bright red" I imagine a bright red of flames as she burn enemies when she grows up. Also it symbolizes her reddish colour.
Hehehe I think that¡¯s a cool name.
We finish our dinner then GobiGora and I take all the equipment that dropped from the dragon when she died.
Most of the arrows are all bend and worn out, so I decided to only take the arrow heads then we hide all of it inside the storage area in the cave. We go to sleep, GobiGora sleeps close to the entrance, I order him to wake me up if something unusual happens. While I sleep in my usual place, Ceara sleep right beside me...
The next morning.......
Huh?
A human child? About the age of 3 or 4, Wait...Red hair, red eyes, two small horns, two small fangs, and two cute little wings...
"Ceara?!"(GobiLeo)
"What is it daddy. I still want to sleep"(Ceara while her eyes are still close)
"Why do you look like that?"(GobiLeo)
"I''m not sure, I remember I wanted to use you as pillow but I am too big, so I started wishing to become small, I imagine it, then I just became like this... Don''t you like it daddy?"(Ceara)
"I do, like it."(I caress her head and smile)
So she can do that... Was it really normal for a dragon?
Well let''s not think too much, I have a bunch of things to do.

------------------------------
I apologize for a very short chapter, I just think it is about right to cut it, in order too suit the title and for the next chapter too. In return I will upload another chapter tomorrow! Thanks everyone for reading!
Chapter 7 - Glutton
PR by TeaAddict777
Today will be busy.
First, I train with GobiGora.
I am not a great fighter but I have experience, I notice however that Gora is a pure amateur. He doesn''t think when he swings, his foot work is non-existent and he has no technique. So I decide to teach him the basics.
"You''re swinging too wildly!"
"Keep your balance when you swing!"
"Think before you swing!"
"Use your instinct, they don¡¯t lie!"
¡°Emotional content, not anger¡±
"Common, cunts swing better than that! I could''ve killed you 10 times already!"
(GobiLeo)
I basically I deflect all his attacks with ease, I''m planning to do this everyday. I can learn how to be more defensive while Gora can learn how to attack better. Since his strikes do have some oomph.
We train for 2 more hours - non stop, then we decided to eat.
I wonder what Ceara has been doing while we were training...
"Gora call Ceara, let¡¯s eat."(GobiLeo)
"Ok boss!" shouts GobiGora as he walks away.
Then I go to the storage, to get our leftovers from yesterday.
------------------------------------
"Ms. Ceara, boss says we going to eat."(GobiGora)
"Eat? Eating again! I''m coming!"(Ceara)
Did she say again?... But we haven''t eaten yet... I may have heard it wrong. (Gora''s thoughts)
-----------------------------------
"Boss we''re here!"(GobiGora)
"Daddy where''s the food?"(Ceara)
"We don''t have food..."(GobiLeo)
"Boss?"(GobiGora)
"Ceara did you eat our food from yesterday?"(GobiLeo)
"You mean the 4 legged animals and those smaller ones with two legs, and the no legs?"(Ceara)
The 4 legged animals must be the deer, and the ones with two legs are the rabbits, the no leg ones are the snakes...
"Yes, sweetheart did you eat them?"(GobiLeo)
"Um! Yes I was hungry and bored, daddy can''t play with me coz he is very busy, so I decided to just eat..."(Ceara)
What the hell? That''s a big appetite! And she still wants to eat after consuming all that food? Where does all that food go anyways...?!
"Sweetheart, daddy is sorry he doesn''t have time for you but what you did is bad, you shouldn''t just eat our food, you should always think of others and always share."(GobiLeo)
"Daddy are you mad at me? Please Ceara is sorry, don''t be mad... She didn''t know it was bad..."(Ceara)
Well she might be able to talk which is not normal for a newborn but she still a new born... I still need to teach her more stuff.
"Daddy''s not mad, but you should remember what I said okay?"(GobiLeo)
"Yes Daddy! I promise!"(Ceara)
GobiLeo pats her head
Now that I think about it, yesterday she wouldn¡¯t stop eating till I told her we are going to sleep...
Hmmmn yes she is a dragon. A goblin is not designed to raise a dragon... Does this mean I have to hunt like a dragon? Crap this is a big problem. Guess I don''t have any choice I will need to do some extra work later.
I told Gora to eat frog, mushroom or any easy food for now. But I think he went out to hunt for a better food, it''s really good to see him learning.
Ceara seems to be not that hungry anyways so she should be fine for a while, I need to execute my plan for the day plus some changes.

Crafted primitive leather armor

Crafted primitive leather trouser

Learned Armor Crafting level 2 - Can craft basic primitive armors
|
Taken from Royal Road, this narrative should be reported if found on Amazon.Its pretty crap, mostly because I don''t have good materials to make a good one and my crafting skills is very low.
But this will do for now it''s better than having no protection at all. I also craft a leather dress for Ceara. I put a hole at the back of it for her cute little wings and for GobiGora who''s wearing a loin cloth I craft the same armour that I have.
This boosted my armour crafting level to level 3.
Now that''s done I search for a good spear to use from my storage, most of them are basic iron spear must be used by common foot soldiers, I grab the one with the greatest quality, and not too worn out.
|
Steel Winged Spear - A long-hilted spear with a barbed point.
Long reach, it can penetrate tough hide''s or tough armor if used properly.
|
Wow this is better than expected.
I waited for a bit till Gora returned from hunting his food.
I handed him his new armour.
I ordered him to keep an eye to Ceara while I''m gone hunting, having a kid to raise is really a pain, but raising a dragon is more painful...
I say my goodbyes and went out to hunt.
My first target was just a rabbit, I need to put something inside my stomach.
After eating I keep searching, I need a bigger target...
Then I find a wild boar it''s quite big and muscular, it have two nasty tusk that could certainly kill a goblin... But I''m no ordinary goblin... I think it notices me but it didn''t run away.
The boar starts thumping its front leg in the ground as if it''s challenging me...
A duel? Hehehe very well... I leave the cover of the bush and ready myself...
The boar charges at me with great speed, but fast enough, like a matador I dodge it with ease... The boar tries to stop as soon as it misses but his speed is too much to do a quick stop, I didn''t waste anytime, as soon as it is turned around from me, I quickly stab it from the mouth penetrating across the skull.
That was fun, but very quick... I can''t wait to have a real battle...
My hunt continues, I know I need to hunt more for my glutton daughter...
Today¡¯s hunt are, a wild Boar, a deer, 4 rabbit''s, and 2 small snakes...
Wew, I hope Gora hunted enough for himself...
I go back home and then,
I saw Ceara riding GobiGora like a horse...
"Boss welcome back!"(GobiGora)
"Daddy this is fun! Weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee, Uncle Gora let''s go to daddy weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!"(Ceara)
"Gora are you okay?"(GobiLeo)
"Don''t worry boss, I was bored so I start playing with Ms.Ceara"(GobiGora)
"If you say so... okay Ceara don''t give Gora too much trouble okay? "(GobiLeo)
"Okay Daddy, we were just playing ehehehe"(Ceara)
"Okay I''ll just cook our food then we can eat."(GobiLeo)
"Okay daddy!"(Ceara)
I start cooking the food, I notice boar do smell really good while roasted it... I''m planning to save the rabbits for tomorrow morning, I just hope all this will be enough for Ceara and me...
3 of us share the foods, but Ceara ate most of it, I don''t really want to stop her, coz this probably just normal for a dragon. While Gora did eat enough already.
After eating all that food Ceara seems not that full yet but she won''t tell me... guess she realize we don''t have that much food... I don''t really want to hindrance her growth and potential because of the lack of food...
I need to do something about this, maybe I should try to hunt bigger prey...
I''m currently level 47, my spear mastery is level 40, and I also have a decent spear now... I''m sure my ability have increased significantly...
Maybe I should try tomorrow...
End of Chapter.
Just want to inform you guys.
Chapter 4, 5, 6 have been proof read by TeaAddict777
Chapter 8 - night stroll
PR by TeaAddict777
Today we did the same thing as yesterday.
Morning training with Gora, then hunting.
Gora went hunting first while I tanned the hides we collected, I want to collect lots of leather, I have plans for it.
Then I went hunting my usual prey but with some additions like a hog, and a raccoon.
I gave all the food to Ceara, and told her I ate during hunting.
I know there is nowhere nearby were a dragon is capable of hunting, but this is all I can do, for now¡
After eating we go to sleep...
Well Ceara and Gora did, I have different plans tonight.
I''m going for a little stroll hehehe.
I haven''t eaten enough today, yes I ate during hunting but that was only a single rabbit...
It''s not nearly enough for what my body really needs...
I''m planning to hunt a beast tonight, a beast with lots of meat... A bigger prey...
I use the cover of the night my nocturnal vision gives me an adavantage, then I start searching for prey.
After a while I find a lone Rhino, usually they are always in herds, so I never thought of hunting them. Luckily I found a loner, not really sure why it is alone but I don''t really care, It''s a great opportunity for me.
First it will provide lots of meat and resources, I said that because aside from it''s tough hides and it''s huge horn, the Rhino of this world seems to be protected by black metal plates covering its back, if I''m correct those might be real metals. A single Rhino have at-least 20 plates, and a single plate is at-least the size of my palm. Hehehe.
Secondly it is an easy target.
Well even if it''s alone it''s not really a easy target, but this one is sleeping.
I move slowly and then I stab it through the neck, blood gushes out from the wound and the rhino dies in a few second.
Phew... that was way too easy...
I''m really hungry after all I didn''t eat that much today, but right now I¡¯m eating till my stomach burst!
GobiLeo was too busy eating he didn''t realize a pack of wolves are surrounding him till it''s too late too escape.
The first wolf initiates the attack, but GobiLeo dodge it by instinct.
"Shit!"(GobiLeo)
5 wolves? No 7....! Damn it.... fuck....
Are they trying to steal my food?
Nah I think they want more than that, from the fact that they surrounded me instead of scaring me off, they want to get rid of me... they probably think of me as a competitor for food...
Yes I understand the rules of nature, kill or be killed this wolves just like me are fighting for survival and they see me as a threat...
If only my taming level is high enough I could try to tame this wolves...
Well I gotta do what I can for now.
My chances are slim, but I don¡¯t really have any choice but to fight to the death...
Unauthorized duplication: this narrative has been taken without consent. Report sightings.
First I calm myself, sharpen my senses, tightening my grip on my spear, cleared my mind and focus to battle...
Seems they are being cautious, 2 mins have pass but they won¡¯t make a move yet... I wish they just charge at me recklessly....
As I was thinking about that, 4 wolves attack me at all sides... trying to overwhelm me by numbers?
As if I let you do that!
I throw my spear on of the wolves, piercing it from the neck, after I throw the spear I quickly charge towards the dead wolf, grabbing my spear back and readying myself from the upcoming attacks.
As the first wolf come close I swing my spear like a sword coming from the side beating the first attacker in the head the force knock him back and stumble a few times probably breaking a few bones.
The attacks didn''t stop.
The next wolf jumps in the air almost at the same time my spear hit the first attacker, there is no time to change my attack momentum so I use the pummel of my spear striking the jumping wolf in the chin knocking him back as well, the last attack I dodge it by stepping to the side leaving the wolf out balance then piercing it in the gut.
Stepping to the side is a technique I learned in my previous life, it is use to dodge a charging attack and counter right after. I never really had the chance to use it in actual fight aside from sparing at a few matches I had, I never thought it is actually quite effective even using a weapon, hehehe guess I gotta apply more of it from now on.
Back to my current situation.
5 wolves are still alive but two of them are injured, the 3 wolves didn''t bother to attack me and retreat.
Smart bastards...
Now then what should I do with this two injured wolves?
The first is bleeding from the head and probably has a broken leg. The other wolf doesn''t seems to be bleeding anywhere but it couldn''t stand, oh yah I struck in the chin...
Should I kill them? Normally I should kill them, but I''m not normal I''m the first Goblin who will create the First Goblin Empire, and Rule Gaia! Bahahahaha! Okay enough, back to the topic....
I will not kill them, instead I gave them food, and check their injuries, it¡¯s quite hard at first they were glaring at me and showing their sharp fangs. But as soon as I gave them food they probably realize I meant no harm and let me check their wounds, these dogs are quite smart...
Good thing they don¡¯t have grave injuries, we share the food and eat our fill. After eating I gathered the useful goods from the rhino and went back to the cave the two wolves followed me. Hehehe looks like I will have a pet wolves now, I always want to have one in my previous life I thought it¡¯s kinda cool hehehe.
I''m really tired and sleepy, goodnight......
