Life In Another World

However, before they pa.s.s the crossing point. A voice of a man could be heard at the corner of the pa.s.sageway.

"Gellis, It"s been a while." The man said, staring at the startled Gellis about hearing his voice.

"Ooh! It"s been a while, Instructor Ralph! How have you been?" Upon seeing a familiar figure, Gellis pleasantly greeted his acquaintance.

"Mm, I"m fine. Well, forget about me. I heard that you took the Goblin Subjugation request?" Ralph didn"t play with his words as he directly asked what he wanted to know.

"Yup! Hahaha, who could"ve thought that after coming back to the town there would be another Goblin Subjugation request?" Staring at Ralph, Gilles said as he added. "Of course we accepted it. We are now on our way to go to the plainlan forest."

"Is that so? Mm, I"m glad to hear that." When he finished his word Ralph abruptly bowed his head at the shoulder level. "The truth is; I came here this morning waiting for you guys to arrive."

Seeing Instructor Ralph bowing his head in the public place, Gellis swiftly grabbed both of his shoulders attempting him to stand up. "What is wrong, Instructor Ralph? Please raise your head." With the curious glance around them, Gellis couldn"t bear to see the Instructor he admired when he was still a trainee Adventurer to be humiliated like this. But to his surprise, Ralph kept bowing his head.

"Please let me finish first." Seeing that Gellis would bend his body if he didn"t raise his head. Ralph stands up straight. "The truth is, I want to ask you guys a request." Saying that, Ralph glanced at the group of six people with his eyes flashed with hope.

"The thing is, two of my trainees are inside the plainlan forest. Their state is unknown." After he said that, Ralph summoned a medium size brown satchel from his spatial ring. "Please take this with you, it may help guys on your journey inside the forest."

Seeing the expensive brown satchel in front of him, Gellis didn"t immediately refuse his request as he said. "So, what does Instructor Ralph wanted me to do?"

"I wanted for you guys to search for those two, even if you found them..." Instructor Ralph"s voice became croaked as he tried to continue his sentences. "Even if you—found them dead, as long as their body is intact that would do."

After Gellis heard his request. He couldn"t help to wrinkle his eyebrows in trouble. "Instructor Ralph, you should know how dangerous our current request would be, right?" Gellis paused for a bit before adding. "If they"re still alive, that would be the best. However, if they"re dead, I highly doubt there would be any corpse for them to be buried."

Gellis said with a troubled expression; with his rich experience handling a Goblin, he knew that they wouldn"t leave the corpse intact once they killed the person unless it was a woman to be handled for nurturing their number. The rest became their rations.

Listening to his explanation, Ralph furrowed his nose in discomfort. "I know it is a ridiculous request; however, as their trainer, this is all I can do. So please." After saying that, Instructor Ralph was about to bow his head once more, but this time a woman"s voice interjected.

"You don"t have to worry, Instructor. We"ll handle it. Who knows your precious trainee is still there alive and kicking." The one who spoke just now is Theeste.

"Right leader?" Theeste wink at him, beaconing Gellis to agree to her suggestion.

But before he could speak another voice said resounded to Gellis back. "Just accept the Instructor"s offer; leader, we can handle it." The one who voiced out his thoughts was Toa, the thief from their party.

Hearing his party member voicing out their agreement to left and right. Gellis could only give a slight sigh in resignation. "Alright you guys, are you sure about this?" Saying that he stared at his group members one by one with his piercing gaze that if they flinched for a bit he would reject the offer. Nevertheless, each and every of his party members matched his gaze firmly.

Seeing the resolve to their eyes, Gellis could only nod in approval. "Okay Instructor, we will accept your request." Saying that Gellis seized the highly made brown satchel as he put it into his spatial tool.

"Okay, with this another commission is added to our journey," Gellis said. "Don"t worry Instructor, your trainees may alive inside the forest somewhere just like Theeste stated."

Once they"re done with their procedures, the group of six went toward the plainlan forest.

When they reached the plainlan forest, the sun was already pointing at the west side of the sky.

However, little did Gellis and his group knew, that the two-person that they"re about to rescue whilst subjugating the Goblins were already gone back to the metropolis of Elmore.

Seeing the sun was about to go hide underneath the darkness, Gellis said, "Toa go find a suitable spot to set up our camp."

"Alright." After he said that, his body blended inside the terrain of the forest as if he was a part of it.

A few moments later, a flare of light suddenly shot up above the sky.

"Mm, that"s quick... No, that"s a warning flare." Staring into the glaring red hue sphere above the sky, Gellis suddenly dashed inside the forest. While his other member was momentarily shocked upon the immediate signal, that Toa delivered. The rest of the group started to follow suit behind Gellis back.

When he arrived at the place, what Gellis saw was a pack of low-level goblins.

Seeing that Toa can manage the pack of Goblins; naturally, Gellis won"t help Toa so that he can improve his battle sense.

Then a sudden screech resounded to the place. "What is that thing?" Gellis said in bewilderment. Whereas he observed the new upcoming Goblin with a razor-sharp eye in amus.e.m.e.nt.

"It"s been a while since I have fought an intellectual Goblin," Gellis said when he saw a flashed of intelligence radiating from its eyes.

After saying that, Gellis summoned his long saber from his spatial tool, as he went forward to confront the new goblins, who appeared out of nowhere.

"Come!" With that said, Gellis activated his sword aura as he advanced near to the Goblin.

"Keeee!" The Goblin shouted in fright upon feeling the sharp aura around Gellis.

But, surprisingly, instead of running, the Goblin went forward to parry with his attack.

*??????~*

Two metallic sounds clashed to each other. The Goblin used its iron mace to stop Gellis"s advancement.

However, the Goblin was just getting started as it activated its skill.

Noticing the weird atmosphere from the Goblin, Gellis stepped backward while examining the oddity of the Goblin.

But before the Goblin can release its skill, a voice resounded to the forest.

* ??????? ???????? *

"That"s enough, Komoblin. Conserve your energy, let me handle that guy while you take that red one."

"But, Hobgoblin, I can handle him!" Komoblin said while fiercely darting his murderous yellowish eyes to Gellis.

"Forget about me, even the two of us, we may not defeat that guy," Hobgoblin said. "However, it is another story if the other group heard the commotion here and aid us if we are lucky enough, Commander Derogoblin may come."

Hearing his companion"s words, Komoblin nodded in agreement, but when he remembered the commotion yesterday and today"s morning. His face went pale in fright. "Are you sure that Commander Derogoblin is still alive?"

"Yes," Hobgoblin said. "If you think that the strongest person here was our King, then you are wrong. There is even more frightening being hiding underneath the obscurations of this forest." After he said that Hobgoblin aura changed, his whole body suddenly engulfed with a wicked and terrifying aura.
