anwhile in the captured cave...
Several hours passed from when I started training on my own with my swords and shield. The ti spent training was really worthwhile even without the passive XP gained. It helped familiarize myself with the shield and the sword a lot more than I even thought.
Before I felt really awkward using the shield that the sword. Most of the ti I would forget that I even had the shield on and use the sword to practice, but using the sword with only one hand also felt awkward at best.
But the training allowed to be at least a little bit more comfortable with using the shield together with the sword. Even though that improvent was at best minimal.
Is not like you can beco a master overnight with just a few hours of training.
Another thing I learned through this training was the actual value of the skill [Lower Weapon Mastery] that I possess.
When I first got this skill I didn´t think much of it cause it seed so...normal?
The knowledge it gave felt more like common knowledge to which made feel a little bit dejected by getting it, but now I realized what this skill is for.
As long as my suspicions were correct I would assu that the higher the skill went the more advanced knowledge it would give to the point where It will make a master of the sword and the shield.
Just imaging being able to block every single blow from the enemy's and right after striking at the perfect mont!
Wouldn´t that be aweso!?
But right now that would seem kind of impossible...
Be it skill or equipped I have nothing at the mont...
What?
The shield and the sword?
You can hardly call them weapons!
The shield from before broke the mont the hobgoblin used one single skill and the sword is literally playing with ti. You never know when it will break while being mid-fight.
Other than tha-

"Oh? Another hour passed?" I quickly cleared my thoughts and focused again.
"How many tis did I see that ssage already? Let´s take a quick look."
[XP: 1900]
"So... about 6 tis? No. It should be about 7 tis that I have seen this ssage" I blankly stared at the XP amount.
"So about 7 hours is it...?" I unemotional dragged my hand towards the status window and quickly purchased the [Sprint] skill.
"Status..."

After digesting the information that the skill brought together I was honestly surprised. The knowledge was about how to guide the mana from inside my body into my legs together with the process of how to reinforce then. But what surprised the most was that this thod didn´t use the dead mana that I saw from the [Miasma Corruption] but instead it used pure mana.
Although I didn´t know the difference between dead mana and pure mana and I was curious about the differences. I left those questions for another day.
"Now I should finally be able to use my mana value with the [Sprint] skill." With excitent in . I went right off the bat to try my new skills.
I walked towards the rooms entranced with my sword and shield.
"Let´s see how far I can go from here until the throne! Skill [Sprint] Activate!"
I slowly guided the pure mana from inside of towards my legs. Since this was my first ti it didn´t activate as fast as it did for the hobgoblin, but in the end, I was able to activate it.
A mix of white and green ethereal light slowly showed from both of my legs, together with the strength. Seeing this I rushed towards the throne with all I got.
But...
The first step that I did had so much strength that made jump and fall like an idiot with a face forward.
*Bahm
"Agh...What the hell was that!? I thought that the skill will be easy since the hobgoblin and even the level 3 goblin were able to do it.But that isn´t the case at all!
"At least now I know that the skill actually works...but it seems like I will need so practice with it so that I don´t make a fool out of myself." I stood up and removed the dust from the cloth between my rib cage.
"I wonder how much mana the whole action of falling in the face has cost"

"Wait...Did I use 12 mana? Didn´t the level 3 goblin use much less mana than I did? Did I used too much mana or do I leak mana from sowhere?" Seeing that the re level 3 goblin was even better than I felt sohow dejected.
"Sigh, I guess I have 4 more tries to familiarize myself with th-" But my thought got suddenly interrupted by the echoes of screeches that were coming inside the cave.
Hearing the echoes I unconsciously put a vicious smile on my face
"Hehe, it seems like so guest has arrived at the perfect ti." I checked my equipnt and went out of the throne room.
"What gentleman would I be if I weren´t to greet my guest inside my ho."

Currently outside the captured cave
A group of five goblins was screeching at each other or rather talking.
"Weird! No guards!" one of the goblin with a dagger in this hand screeched.
"True! Suspicious!" the one goblin had a spear in hand screeched towards the dagger goblin.
"Warrior chief dead? Warrior chief dead?" two goblins with similar looks and the sa axe screeched at the sa ti.
"Stop talking! If chief dead, then corpse inside!" After this goblin screeched that the other 4 goblins closed they mouth at the sa ti.
This one wore a helt and carried a spear which by the looks of it were of better quality versus the other goblin with the spear.
A level 4 goblin!
"But boss, corpse inside cave!" The spear goblin complained.
"Quit I said!" kicking the spear goblin. The helt goblin pointed to the cave.
"We go inside and retrieve the corpse! Now!"
The four goblins looked at each other and sighed internally. Normally they wouldn´t follow orders from the helt goblin, but this mission given to us from the elder. Any mistakes might lead them to beco the next toy of their elder!
No mistakes are allowed!
Without further ado, the group of five goblins walked towards inside the cave and after a short mont there looked turned strange.
"Hey, Leader. Was the ho of chief that clean before?" The dagger goblin asked.
"No... the first ti was chiefs ho so clean..." The helt goblin put a strange look.
At first, the ho of the helt goblin wasn´t the one from the elders but instead was the ho of the warrior chief so he was familiar with these surroundings, but seeing this house so clean he felt that sothing wasn´t right.
"Suspicious...let´s leave" Hearing what their leader said the other four goblins got flustered and confused.
"We can´t! Elder will punish!"
"Right"
"Right"
"Need to find warrior chief..."
"Quiet!" The helt goblin screeched loudly.
"Sothing is wrong! The cave too clean with no food! No guards either! Too suspicious!"
"The blue undead might be here! Too dangerous! Neverle-" As the helt goblin tried to reason with the other four goblins he noticed sothing.
Near the wall where the spear goblin was standing was a hole where normally goblins were sleeping in was a cloth.
After watching the cloth for a short mont he noticed a very small white and green light coming out of the hole.
Seeing that the helt goblins face paled.
"Run!" The helt goblin used the skill [Sprint] and jumped behind as far as it could.
The other four goblins made a puzzled expression.
As they were confused sothing rapidly jumped at the spear goblin out from the hole.
And the next mont they knew the spear goblin was pinned down to the ground with a sword in this chest.
"KGWAAAH!"
Seeing there friend in the ground screaming for help they were shocked! They all took a step behind and pointed at the figure which had a cloth covering this body.
After removing the sword from the chest of the now-dead goblin the figure threw away the cloth covering.
Only to see a Skeleton!
"Welco to my ho, fellow guest!"
