Goblin King (4) [End of Volu 1]
“Kihhh… … die!”
Just as the Goblin King waited for the best timing to launch his full power fla, I too have waited for this.
As I hang in the air for a second, I calculated my next steps.
Suddenly, huge fla balls ca towards , but the ring’s skill triggered before they hit !
“Kiaaaaaaaak!”
I was almost covered by flas, but in just a second, it was the Goblin King’s body that burned. It seed that his defense against magic is not that strong. His body caught fire quickly.
“Kyiiiaaaaah!”
Screaming in pain, the Goblin King wielded his sword wildly. But this ti, it was the goblin explosion ability once more, not summons.
Maybe the sword’s ability is limited, so perhaps it is only the explosion spell that’s available now.
However, it could also be that the Goblin King is not on the normal state of mind, because he should have chosen to summon Warriors to defend himself, rather than attack once more.
Imdiately after landing, I used Leap again to get within killing distance. I couldn’t retreat now. I have full faith in my armor. The wound on my back hurt so much, but I ignored it. There were explosions all around , but I have to kill him if I didn’t want to die!
The mont I broke through the last explosion, nothing got in the way between him and . His terrified eyes looked very refreshing to .
“Key key!”
The end of my sword found its way towards the Goblin King’s neck. However, before the blade was able to successfully cut through, his hand grabbed my arm.
“Ki-ii!” he yelled in pain.
Suddenly, his eyes started to radiate a strange green light. I felt the Ebon Heart thump violently.
Why?
As soon as the question ca up on my mind, the Goblin King cried out.
“Obey !”
Upon hearing his words, my hand with a sword relaxed and lowered down a little. I tried to cut off his neck, but my hands did not move.
“Key kikikik!”
Despite the pain, he laughed. It was a wicked smile.
The Goblin King even had the ability to control the enemy?!
Confusion and embarrassnt filled .
“Kik! You were quite annoying.” He raised himself and yelled arrogantly. “You will be my escort from now on!”
At that very mont, the heart of the Ebon Heart ran wild.
An alert window popped up in front of .
[Ebon Heart]
[You will be able to detect the crisis. Positive corrections are made to all combat activities. The body evolves infinitely as it grows. Repels all spirit-based magic. ???]
I lifted the sword.
The Goblin King turned his head in surprise, and once again radiated green light, but it didn’t matter.
I put all the mana left on my sword and struck. It was on the exact sa place that was deeply cut earlier, and once I connected, I released Black Lightning with all my power.
“How…did you… !”
“Kyaaah!”
In an instant, the Goblin King’s head flew in the air. All the goblins that were still alive fell dead.
[You gained 12,860 experience.]
[You got 1 gold and 10 silver.]
[Beginner Power Attack has beco Lv6.]
The Goblin King’s sword fell to the ground with a tallic clang. Slowly, the sword dissolved, leaving only red gems. Soon, the gems also disappeared, along with the armor he was wearing.
[You obtained ‘Pelcadia’s Gem-Enemy’]
[You obtained ‘Chesia’s Leather Armor’]
“Hoo, hoo!”
I looked around. I am the only one left standing in the wide-open cavity.
The throne where the Goblin King was sitting also dissolved, and a shabby wooden box ford in its place. A large hole ford in the wall behind it.
I realized that that was the entrance to 2F.
I was right.
“Really tired.”
I was really curious about the second floor, but I wanted to rest. It was a terrible experience not to have control over my body. There was still cold sweat on my forehead.
It was an incomparable horror with the Lower Fla Magic. It may be because there I wasn’t prepared for it at all.
However, I was able to fully understand why Rain prepared for the Fla Magic and not for the mind-control one.
He didn’t have to.
He knew I would not be enchanted.
He knows about my ebon heart. Better than .
But I wish he could have said a word. It’s a really nasty ability.
As I cursed him over and over, I fell and stayed down to rest. That was exhausting.
It was really scary. I thought I was going to die this ti.
There was no rest. From explosions to flas to ntal domination, it was a series of extre tension.
If you still do not eat, the quest will not be resolved.
If you don’t eat, your abilities won’t rise.
If you don’t eat, you don’t get higher abilities, and if you don’t eat, you can’t evolve.
I stood up. In front of is the Goblin King’s corpse, neither large nor small in size. I feel like burning it down, but I can’t.
I sighed, picking up his head, and muttered.
“I will enjoy this food.”
The Goblin King burned in moderation, so it was crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. There was no seasoning, but it was still the most delicious body I have eaten since I opened my eyes as a goblin.
It isn’t an analogy – this one really tasted like chicken!
What is it with the skill of Predation? Does it have the ability to replace a disgusting-looking and disgusting-tasting food, with flavors and tastes that the brain rembers as delicious?
It didn’t matter anyway. I have to eat them anyway, and if it can make eating more delicious, thank you. I continued predating the Goblin King’s corpse in a more relaxed manner.
It had a lot of parts – the head had an interesting taste, the limbs tasted like chicken legs, and the body tastes like chicken breast.
“That was really yummy.”
For the first ti in my life, I felt grateful for my predation skills.
Suddenly, a notification popped up.
[Predation after Hunting Goblin King 1/1]
[Magic has risen 5]
[You acquired Beginner Fla Magic.]
So far, I had hoped to get the Fla Magic, but I did not expect it too much. I thought, if I get it, it would be at the Lower level, but the Beginner level is not bad at all.
But there’s more…
[Predation has beco Lv3.]
[Predation Lv3]
[Eating acts to restore health, mana, and injuries. Can resist so degree of toxicity. The efficiency when absorbing the power of the eaten is slightly increased.]
This was totally unexpected.
I opened my eyes wide. I ate up a lot since it reached Lv.2, but it didn’t increase, so I have given up on it. Was it because the Goblin King was an upgraded opponent?
Of course, there is no one to explain this to . All I can do is rejoice.
Predation can restore injuries. The torn skin, the cuts, the wounds can all be healed. Of course, the extent of recovery may not be that great yet, but if combined with the Regeneration I obtained, the probability of dying in battle is greatly reduced.
And, Predation is now level 3. Level 4? Level 5, level 6? Obviously, there is more power I never imagined.
I turned my eyes. Dead knights were scattered around. Now, they look like golden chunks of at. I rushed to them without hesitation.
[Predation After Hunting Goblin Knights 2/5]
[Beginner Archery beca Lv4.]
[You acquired Beginner Power Arrow.]
[Predation After Hunting Goblin Knights 3/5]
[Health increased by 1]
The Goblin Knight has a tough skin like a Goblin Warrior’s, but the middle was as tender as the King’s flesh. It feels chewy and tastes like a chicken cutlet.
Even if it’s not as good as the King’s, it’s also quite tasty.
I laughed upon realizing my thoughts. At first, I felt so disgusted by a monster’s corpse, but now I’m eating them and making comnts like a food critic.
I didn’t know that I would adapt to this grim situation. Neither my mother nor my father would know, but I liked what I am now than I was before.
The human Kang Si-ha held only one advantage against Hop Goblin Kang Si-ha: a human body.
But when I ate the fourth goblin knight, sothing happened that made prouder.
Only
[Predation After Hunting Goblin Knights 4/5]

[Congratulations! Satisfied the condition for Upper Skill synthesis!]
The mont I saw the notification, I stopped and traced back what I was doing. I ate a Goblin Knight, and Beginner Archery reached Lv. 5.
Upper Skill? Synthesis? I can’t guess what it is. Fortunately, a reminder followed.
