The air whistled lodiously through the tree branches, while the pale light of the two moons banished the night’s darkness.
Before Lloyd was a cave with rocky walls and moss growing on them.
Cautiously, the young man took a step inside the cave and began to walk deeper and deeper into the cave.
With each step the air beca denser, more loaded.
The sll was especially unpleasant, though it was to be expected knowing he was entering the goblins’ lair.
While he was cautious, the boy also didn’t fear what he was going to face.
They were goblins, nothing to fear.
Compared to Siegfried, goblins were simple child’s play.
The boy continued going deeper and deeper through the stone corridor, which beca increasingly tiny.
Though fortunately, he wasn’t too big either.
Soon a light beca visible, it wasn’t the light of the sun or moon, but of fire.
It was dim and muted, as if it struggled to purge the shadows hiding inside the mountain.
"I suppose this is it," the young man comnted while exiting the corridor, to find himself in an imnse hall.
It was an imnse cave.
From the ceiling hung rock stalactites, while on the ground there were multiple improvised cabins.
More than a village it looked like a camp.
Beside the small civilization, a lake of crystalline waters shone intensely, at the bottom multiple magical stones sparkled with multiple colors.
If it weren’t for the sll, Lloyd would have quite enjoyed the scene.
"KRIIII KRA KRIIII!" a shrill voice then scread.
A small humanoid and thin creature, with green skin, large ears and elongated and pointed nose.
One of the goblins had noticed his presence, however that didn’t worry Lloyd, the more chaos his arrival generated the better for him.
More goblins were alerted there was an intruder, and quickly began to erge from their rectangular wooden cabins.
"It seems I’ve made quite a commotion, well let’s see to what point this helps farm V.P," the boy said while extending his arm toward the small goblin civilization.
With a snap of fingers a wave of white flas erged from his hand.
The flas began to accelerate while spinning at great speed like a drill toward their target.
The white flas exploded against one of the houses and began to spread.
The goblins began to scream while so burned. The stench of burned flesh spread quickly throughout the entire cave, sowing more chaos.
[ 95 V.P]
Lloyd smiled, chaos had begun.
"Co out, Sieg," the boy ordered with a smile, while from his shadow the swamp of gluttony began to spread.
Then, a creature erged.
It asured around two and a half ters, and wore black armor that covered its entire body.
Siegfried, the hero who once fought to save those lands was now Lloyd’s subordinate.
While his power was nowhere comparable to what it once was, it didn’t an he was weak now.
"I see they’re already regrouping, they’re more organized than they seem," the boy affird with surprise while several of the goblins grouped together.
They shot arrows and threw spears toward Lloyd, though that didn’t represent any danger to him.
In an instant Siegfried used his giant sword to destroy the projectiles.
"What a sha, if this is all you have, there’s no point in using ’that’ on you," the boy lanted while sighing.
What he said was true.
He had co not only to complete the system’s side mission, but also to test that combination of primordial flas and Gleipnir.
However, the goblins didn’t seem worthy of using such attacks against them.
It was a waste of power.
"Sieg, attack," the young man ordered calmly.
As soon as the warrior heard that order, he acted imdiately.
He shot out at unusual speed, closing distance with his enemies in less than a second.
Siegfried swung his sword with speed and force, cutting in half the entire line of goblins that had attacked earlier.
[ 65 V.P]
Lloyd smiled, it was being a good harvest, and there were still several goblins alive.
Without further delay the young man began to spread "ice dust" through the goblin village.
While one part of the village burned, another was being filled by a bluish cloud of frost dust made with ice magic.
"Let’s see how well my technique works," the black-haired young man comnted while the fog continued spreading.
The goblins began to inhale the fog, its grains were so small they were capable of entering through the pores of the goblins’ skin.
Then, when the fog penetrated inside the goblins, it began to freeze them from within.
[ 75 V.P]
Lloyd smiled, the goblins were falling like flies, as if they were inhaling toxic gas.
"It’s ti for the grand finale!" the boy said with a smile.
Then, the white flas that were on one side of the village ca into contact with the ice particles filling the other part.
At that instant the properties of tallic fire those flas had were activated, spreading in an instant throughout the entire village with an explosion.
In an instant, the flas spread throughout the entire village, like a majestic veil of white fire.
The flas spread so much they even reached the corners of the cave, where several mushrooms were growing.
Mushrooms that in the future would be goblins.
And that at that instant were instantly erased.
[ 350 V.P]
Lloyd smiled pleased while watching the goblins’ village burn, it had been a good hunt.
Though deep down, he also felt disappointed.
Then, a voice resonated in his head.
[Side Mission: Finish off a goblin camp - 100%]
{You have received: Green Star 2,500 V.P}
Upon hearing those words Lloyd smiled pleased, he had managed to complete the mission in record ti.
It had been easier to find the goblins than to massacre them.
"Mmm, I suppose now the fire should be put out," Lloyd comnted calmly while snapping his fingers.
In an instant, the white flas disappeared, leaving only an unpleasant sll of burning as a trace.
"Well, I suppose I have nothing more to do here... or perhaps I do," the boy turned to see the lake.
Perhaps he had just found a hidden treasure.
