Demon King

How long has it been since I opened my eyes with a Goblin body? I didn't know. You killed sixteen Goblins and ate sixteen Goblins after receiving the quest.

My level has become 5.

[Fade]

[Goblin Lv 5]

[Strength – 11 HP – 14 MP – 5 Luck]

[Skill – Dark Heart, Predatory Lv1, Escape Lv1]

Increases Strength and Stamina by 1 each time you level up. You gained 1 HP when you ate the tenth Goblin.

I didn't sleep. I also wondered why I wasn't sleepy, but after a while after eating Goblins, I started feeling tired and realized that when I couldn't find my next target.

Up until now, I have regained my stamina with predation and level up. Recovering HP also eliminates fatigue.

Sleep is deadly. No matter how big the dungeon is, if you're unlucky, you're faced with an enemy. I had run away more than once or twice. Predation has become an essential skill to stay awake.

‘I need you to come out now. ’

It's been a little easier to deal with Goblins since I reached level 4. It hurt less when I hit it, and it hurt more when I hit it. It worked very fatally.

But it made me more nervous at the same time. Some Goblins may be Level 1 or higher. Maybe there are Goblins stronger than me.

As long as I didn't know the Goblin's level beforehand, I had to hunt every Goblin carefully.

The moment I quietly stepped into a new passageway, I discovered a new prey. In the meantime, I carefully approached him with a familiar form of stone.

Goblins are dull.They only have good hearing, but they're also dull in other senses. They lack the so-called sixth sense.

But before I could approach him, he turned his back on me.

It was like my heart stopped. He has a knife in his hand. Crude and rusty, but it was a knife anyway.

“Glug.”

He smiles. Now I see his torso is a little more advanced than any other Goblin. I could tell. He's stronger than me. Much stronger.

Immediately after realizing it, I threw the stone I was holding at him and started running.

“Glug, glug! ”

He chases after me with a eerie sound. At the moment of desperation, the ability to flee was expressed. I felt something deep inside my body that was buzzing around in a very small fountain, something I should probably call Mana, being consumed little by little.

I only have 5 magical powers. A piece of garbage. The skill of escaping will not last long.

At first, I thought so, but I wasn't. After Sam ran out, this time, his health started to run out. Since there were quite a lot of predatory health recoveries, I could tell very well just how much my health was diminished.

I like to be able to keep running. But what if we run out of this? Then we must wait for death, exhausted in stamina and magic. That made me creepy.

I couldn't overcome my worries, so I suddenly looked back. Fortunately, the distance between me and the Goblin with the sword was getting closer.

Yes, I will. Even if he has the ability to flee, he can only use it when fleeing from combat.

If we keep this distance, we'll be able to outrun him if we find another passageway two times in this complex dungeon. Then you can live! I started to see a little hope.

But he had one more thing I didn't think of.

“Kiehei! Kiehei! ”

He seemed very annoyed. At that moment, he nods, as if resolved to do so.

And he threw a knife at me. Clumsy, but the blade was aiming right at me.

“Queek!”

There was no escaping it. It was a miracle that I was desperate to escape if I avoided the thrust of an enemy more physically powerful than myself.

I put a knife in my thigh. It's not deep, but I can't afford to stop now and draw my sword. It hurts so much to run like that.

I felt like a spark was burning from my thighs. I felt like I was going to collapse.

But what happens when you fall? Die. He'll kill me just like I killed the other Goblins. Without hesitation. Goblins are like that.

You'll die if you fall. You've come back to life, but you'll die even more pathetic than when you were a human.

No, you can't die. I must survive. I want to live. I want to live!

The black heart beat violently.

Because of that? My body and mind were clearly limited, but I kept running.

You try to ignore the prowling leg with a knife. The pain couldn't slow my steps any longer.

“Queek!? Yuck!”

You didn't think I'd keep running, did you? The Goblin who threw the sword chased me screaming.

I can't get caught. I could never get caught. If we get caught, we're dead.

I ran again and again with all the screaming energy. You break down the passageway and enter a new one. But there were already other Goblins there.

“Yuck!”

He was a weak Goblin without a sword. I wish I wasn't being chased. I was confident I'd be able to take it head-on. But you can't. I could still hear the breath of the man coming after me.

I ran past him before the Goblins reacted to me.

“Queek! Queek! ”

“Grrrgh!"

But when I turned back, I could no longer run and fell into place. The shock knocks the knife out of the bridge and slams into the ground, hissing. Blood spilled.

It took away my strength even more.

“Huff……. ”

It hurts so much. I know I have to run, but my body remains motionless.

It was no longer a level of skill or willpower. His magical strength and stamina were all on the floor, and blood was still spilling from his legs.

Is this how it ends? Is this really how it ends? I feel weaker and weaker. My fingertips were getting a little cold. It was the last time I felt so pathetic that I laughed.

[I got a crude rusty knife.]

At that moment, the knife that came off my thigh and was rolling the floor disappeared. I opened my eyes.

What did you just say? You said you got it. '

I heard it clearly. I didn't disappear or return to the original owner like a game, and I got it.

I got it. Why would it disappear? How so?

The moment I thought about it, a window appeared in front of my eyes.

A glass window with regular vertical and horizontal lines, like a grid. Three horizontal columns, and only nine small windows.

But it was salvation for me.

It's got money in it, a crude rusty knife.

There was a minor health potion.
