...There is no way I can get used to this.
After weathering the battle with the first Goblin that stretched over a dozen deaths, Damian thought that the next ti would be easier, but he was sorely mistaken.
There were many ways to die, and unlike the repeated deaths that Damian overca, this ti was especially far more brutal.
Although one could adapt to a certain type of situation, perhaps even death, it had to be the exact sa kind of death. Receiving the shock without knowing how you died was even worse.
But first
Damian was still shaken both physically and ntally. Nonetheless, he still forced his shivering body to move. If he wanted to keep doing this, he needed to make things even more perfect.
Now that he knew exactly where the broken sword was, Damian headed directly to get it and put it in his inventory. He then picked up the Goblins knife and ration pouch and did the sa thing with them.
Finally, he quenched his thirst before
Save.
[ Save Point has been created. Main Save Point has been replaced. ]
The first start to a perfect clear was a perfect start. Since he needed to focus on the main task of clearing the Goblin Den, Damian had to remove all distracting elents.
In fact, this was the main point of the Inventorys existence. You couldnt take things back with you through it after your death. However, you could use it to collect all the things you needed at the start of the run!
The Goblins body was now back to being almost fully intact, but Damian didnt bother with it. Fates Guide wasnt the kind of RNG ga where looting a corpse in different runs would give different results.
Obviously, that was even less likely to happen in reality.
Huff Huff
Once all the rooms benefits had been harvested again, Damians countenance went all dark as all the emotions that he had been suppressing flooded out all at once.
Hold it.
His esophagus wanted to let go and throw up, but Damian couldnt let go of whatever food Iris had left in her stomach.
He wasnt overco with hunger, so Damian didnt dare try the rations that the Goblin had, and he hoped he wouldnt have to do that any ti soon.
I definitely felt the impact on my head.
It happened even faster this ti, but the pain and sensations were fully transmitted upon his return as usual. Damian felt a big headache, he imagined even getting hit by a car wouldnt feel as bad
{I- Im sorry. Its my fault, I should have warned you earlier. Hah}
Suddenly hearing her voice, Damian only now realized why Iris had been silent. It looked like her eyes would explode with tears. Looking back, what she saw was likely very horrifying.
Nevermind that. I wouldnt have been able to dodge it either way. Just tell what it was.
Considering how slow his muscles were reacting at the very end, thoughts like If I did that, I could have never occurred to Damian. His doom was already decided after the poison had seeped in.
{It was a green monster just like the other ones, but it was twice as big. It held a huge club and blew my- your head off.}
While Iris world had monsters, they were vastly different from the ones inhabiting the Labyrinth were even related to them. To her, they were mysterious otherworldly species. To Damian, however
There was a Hobgoblin as well?
Whether it was Fates Guide or even general gas, the Goblins family tree was almost known to all.
In this case, the Hobgoblin, usually the leader of a group, had just given Damian the experience of having his head squashed like a waterlon.
So, six Goblins and one Hobgoblin.
Undeniably, this was too advanced an encounter for his first battle, but Damian knew that it was unlikely that he could get past the cave without being noticed.
Most importantly, considering the standard system of a Labyrinth in Fates Guide, the monsters only beca harder as one went deeper.
If Damian couldnt beat this small den and obtain so resources from them, then learning their sleeping pattern to get past them wouldnt get him anywhere.
Speaking of which
Once Damian started imrsing his head in his retry preparation, the trauma of his most recent death started slowly fading as he called out.

As expected.
Looking at his Fate Points accumulation, Damian was only slightly disappointed at heart. No matter how much of a cheat he was supposed to be as Plot Armor itself, he couldnt possibly abuse the respawn to repeatedly obtain FPs.
The only thing he could bring back with him was his experience, and while that in itself could be abused if Damian was to seriously consider it, it wasnt ti to focus on that just yet.
Iris. Have you morized the layout of the area?
{I tried to, but I cant rember everything.}
Seeing how quickly Damian had picked himself up, Iris felt ashad of herself. Aside from the end scene which was easily engraved in her brain, the rest of the details were starting to get blurry.
Thats okay, just tell what you can rember.
Even Damian who had scouting as his main objective wasnt able to completely take everything in amid the chaos. Naturally, he couldnt expect Iris to do better. At least not from the first ti.
{Understood, I will do my best. There were two of the small monsters on the right of the bonfire, three on the left}
Thankfully, when it ca to the ti before the battle started, Iris almost told the details in full. With what he personally witnessed, Damian was able to form a crude but practical map in his head.
Great, lets go again.
{Already?!}
Of course.
While Damian might have been discouraged as soon as he returned, now that he had an actual plan in his head, he felt like he couldnt rest before he implented it!
Did you forget that you were an Aura Knight?
Incompetent or not, Iris possessed the ability to tear those puny Goblins to shreds. Now that Damian had managed to save his Aura by ignoring the useless corpse, he couldnt help looking forward to this runs result
