145. Engagement with the Goblin 11

Then Zelos and I repeatedly searched for and defeated the Goblins, and as many as we could. However, as the Goblin headed towards me, I came to the cave where I was scouting sometime. Well, if I go towards the goblin, I might inevitably get to the place where the goblin is coming and going...

"There are a lot of goblins around here. Could it be that the base is close?"

I see. They're near the cave I scouted.

"That's where Lena was talking about..."

Yes.

When I nodded, Mr. Xeros seemed to be thinking about something.

Are you worried about going to the Goblin stronghold?... if that's the case, I wonder if Zeros would be able to do anything about it? I was battling multiple goblin kings, but as the number grows, it will get tighter. Besides, I don't know how strong the top Goblin King species are... Worst of all, should we think about using magic?

"... can you tell me where the Goblin base is?"

"I don't mind, but are you headed there?"

"Ah, just, Lena doesn't have to follow me." I'll go and take down the Goblin Road. That way, the Goblin settlement will be dealt with to a certain extent. ”

That may be true, but no matter how much Zeros, isn't it quite dangerous?

"... yes, but if we can't do something about this Goblin settlement, the damage to the city will be considerable." Besides, there shouldn't be any higher-ranked adventurers in that city right now, so it'll take a while to get ready. "

... from what Zeros said, you have to do something about this? Well, I don't think that's for sure, but it's more likely that the Goblins will be damaged before they're ready for the next one, right?

“Okay, I'm just going with Zeros.”

"... is that okay?"

“Yes, just let me know if you don't think you can win. At the very least, we'll try to secure an escape route.”

"... okay. So, please."

That's what Mr. Zeros told me, so I guided him to the cave where the goblins were based.
