The Undead system-Chapter 42: goblin knight
Chapter 42: goblin knight
Early the next morning, the thick dense air surrounded the village creating a small fog barrier, slightly blocking the village. Several lit up candles were active, illuminating the rooms stationed in.
Several goblin guards patrolled the village all armed, while some stayed on dedicated posts. Both high and low corners of unsuspecting spots layed a guard, armed with a weapon.
"Just continue making your way east. there are lesser traps there, so you shouldn't be caught unaware." Yuma said to which jack nodded. They both couldn't sleep yesterday night, having different reasons.
Jack as an undead didn't require sleep much, infact he found it quite disturbing having being dead for 5 years. And the thrill of putting his plan to motion compelled him, with excitement.
Yuma on the other hand also looked forward to killing the goblin king, but that wasn't what kept her awake. No, it was the insidious entity besides her that looked like a birthed nightmare.
She didn't know what species of creatures jack was a part of, but she didn't dare ask. But one thing was for sure and that was jack wasn't normal.
"Remember.. there is a hidden secret entrance west, near a hidden cave. to ensure the goblin king safe passage." She reminded him, strapping a brown leather belt to her waist. Looking at her now, jack could see she was somewhat different from the goblins here.
Putting on a silver chest piece armour, with two daggers strapped to her side.
Not only was she taller reaching his height, but she also had visible feminine traits. She had a sleek curvy body, with orange sized blossoms. Both at the front and back. Her short hair was jet black, highlighting her face and green eyes.
If it wasn't for the green skin and goblin features that betrayed her, jack would've mistaken her for another alluring creature.
"Am much more terrifying than you think." Jack calmly said, releasing his dominion aura a bit to remind her.
"O-of course.." nodding she then bid farewell to him, proceeding out the room first.
[Are you sure you know what you're doing?] The system inwardly blurted out after being mostly silent since yesterday.
"Of course. I may not trust her but I don't really need to." With a smug grin jack then proceeded out the room. Heading downstairs, he could still hear the moaning sounds from other rooms. making him wonder, how long a goblin could last while mating.
Reaching the ground floor, there were still some goblins jack recognized from yesterday.
'Time to level up.' He grinned approaching a particular goblin. The latter was indulged in a fierce intimate exercise, with a female goblin. but he suddenly stopped, feeling the atmosphere change.
"You- w-what are you doing here!" It roared in rage, clearly not forgetting what transpired yesterday.
"I took your advice and decided to join the fun. Can I?" Jack politely asked like an innocent child. Staring at him the goblin's hand twitched slightly, feeling the tremendous amount of power radiating within jack.
It felt like he was staring more at a demon, than a normal creature.
"The offer's off." The goblin uttered letting jack be, continuing in his task.
"How rude." Jack chuckled, his expression turning more darker. Moving from his spot he held the goblin by the head, slamming his head multiple times to the hard logs of wood.
[Congratulations on killing a rank f goblin!]
He let go seeing the system notification pop up. The remaining goblins in the room had stopped their actions, frozen in spot staring at jack.
Everything happened so fast for their eyes to keep up with. The only thing they heard were bang noises, followed by the thud of the lifeless goblin with a disfigured face.
"So, who's next?" Jack smiled a crazed look plastered in his eyes.
"What's that?" A goblin guard wondered, hearing some noises inside the mating hall. Listening closely, it didn't sound like the usual moans and groans. but cries and screams of agony. Followed by the smashing of different items.
Steadily making their way to the entrance of the hall they were on high alert, clutching their weapons tightly. Stretching his hand to the door he attempted to to open it.
'Bam!' The door was broken with a figure flying back, crashing into the goblin in front.
"What the hell?" He muttered seeing green blood sliding down her chest, with a wooden stake stuck in it.
Their faces then turned pale the next second, with the emergence of a figure.
"A slave?" The male goblin was surprised, seeing the slave with a collar on it's neck standing there. It was stained in blood, green blood to be precise, from the goblin's head killed.
A wild look that sent shivers down one's spine crept into their souls, making their faces go pale.
"M-monster." One of the goblin guard muttered trembling in fear. Unable to withstand the terrifying pressure, emitting from Jack.
"S-screw this!" Another male goblin stuttered, dropping his axe turning back to flee. No sooner than it ran did it's head fall to the ground, with green blood gushing out.
In front stood jack with an emotionless expression, blankly staring down to the headless goblin.
[Do you have a fetish for dismembering heads?] The system spoke, noticing jack mostly preferred beheading heads.
'Now that you mention it am not sure.' He chuckled shaking his head a bit.
'This dominion stat is really impressive.' Jack thought, seeing how high the effects were against the goblins. He only had brief knowledge about aura's, knowing it was the manifestation of one's presence or essence.
The determination of the effects varying, depending on how strong the individual was.
'Thud! thud.' Looking, jack could see several more goblins drop their weapons, fleeing from sight.
"No.. don't run you idiots, he'll only kill you faster!" The goblin jack termed to be the leader of this group yelled, standing his ground. In his hands were a rusty sword and shield.
Gripping the axe stained with green blood he blurred from sight, appearing in front of a fleeing goblin.
'Slash! slash!' Making two slash marks he severed the guard arms. Green blood gushed out like a fountain, spraying the floor while the male goblin screamed in pain.

Using his leg he kicked the goblin back, sending it crashing to one of the pillars holding the roof.
Moving swiftly, he made his way to the rest of the fleeing goblins. quickly finishing them off.
"Fool." Jack scoffed shifting his body a bit, evading the sword descending downwards vertically. With a swift motion he turned, slapping the goblin making it skid back some few meters.
'It's still standing.' A hint of surprise flashed across jack's eye, seeing the goblin still standing from that hit. Not waiting he shot forward, picking up a spear and throwing it with force.
Attempting to block with his shield the goblin was shocked, as the spear pierced through his shield defenses. Even tearing through his skin potruding out the back.
"Phough." It coughed up fresh blood not believing his eyes. Not giving much thought to process what just happened, his face turned grim seeing jack in front.
"Where is the goblin king?" Jack sternly asked, gripping the goblin's neck lifting it up a bit. The latter choked in his grasp, struggle to break free but couldn't. Feeling jack hand constricting his neck like an anaconda.
Based on instinct he placed the male goblin were he stood, as an object crashed into it.
'Boom!' An explosion sound occured, with some dust and derbies risen up. The force sending jack skidding back some feats.
'What was that?' Jack wondered, feeling somewhat power like Jin possessed. Soon the dust settled, revealing a bulky goblin in silver clad chest armour. holding a war hammer stained with green blood.
"You.." the goblin snarled immediately recognizing jack.
