“I’ve heard of goblins a lot. I think it’s a popular monster, or rather, whenever there’s an incident or an accident, it’s often a goblin. It’s a monster that is often talked about in the mansion.”

Nina touches her finger to the tip of her chin and says with a hint of reminiscence.

“The goblins are the monsters that do the most damage. They’re a little stronger, a little wiser, and the trickiest part is that they work in packs. They’re not that hard to deal with by themselves, but when they come at you in a pack of four or five, they’re incredibly destructive. A beginner will be devoured in a panic and killed in a flash.”

Nina shudders slightly at my words.

“It’s not easy to imagine the end of the story, as I thought when I talked with Sailor……”

Nina chuckles with a subtle look on her face, haha.

“Well. The goblins attacking you when you’re down is just a nightmare. But, well, there are three of them this time. You don’t have to worry about that.”

“Yes, it is. –By the way, it’s a very nice forest.”

It is still a little past noon. Sunlight is leaking through the trees. The vast forest is thick with grass and trees, and it’s not too rough, probably because there are no monsters.

The rest of the party had started to scatter, so we were the only ones around.

Theo Hollow is following us from a little behind, away from us. Basically, he doesn’t seem to want to get involved. Other than that, there’s nothing else, just a quiet forest.

“There aren’t many forests that are this quiet. The academy must have a pretty good handle on it.”

“That’s what it looks like. They ask adventurers and get rid of monsters sometimes.”

“Wow, you know a lot about this.”

“I’m a duke, after all. I have some unexpected information.”

Nina smiles with a big smile on her face.

“That’s because I lived in the countryside, so I don’t really know what’s going on around the capital.”

“Well, I’ll show you around sometime!”

Nina pattered over to my side and said with a twinkle in her eye. From that face, I can see that she sometimes wants to return the favor! 

“I’m sure I’ll be able to find out more about it. I’m sure Nina would know of some good spots.”

“Got it! I’m looking forward to it.”

–And then. Arthur, who was running ahead of us, comes running toward us, eager to do his thing.

“Hey, hey, hey, hey! Get out! Goblins!”

Arthur says excitedly.

“Oh, they are. How are they feeling?”

“Four goblins are making weapons near a stump. Sharpening stones like axes.”

“Wow, I didn’t think that they have that much wisdom.”

“I didn’t know they were that handy, either. …… What to do now?”

“What to do? Of course, we are going to fight. Let the exercise begin.”

Arthur and Nina gulp and swallow spit.

It’s just that they’re not ready for it yet.

“Well, it’s a bit scary the first time. Then leave it to me, I’ll take the lead.”

I follow the path Arthur came from and rummage through the grass.

Then I find a pack of goblins in a little bit of open space.

I don’t muffle my footsteps at all, and I enter the open space unapologetically.

“Gigiiiii!”

A moment later, the goblins all turn to us at once. All of them have their minds on edge and are on alert. And then they turn their killing intent toward me.

I have to let them experience the killing intent of the monsters without being caught off guard……. Nice, it’s been a long time since I’ve felt that way. 

“Giaaaaaaah ！！！！”

The goblins hold the axe they have made in their hands and scatter in all directions, screaming.

“The goblins are ……!”

“Are you okay?”

“Well, you’ll see.”

As the goblins take up positions in a fan shape around me, they begin to communicate with each other in some way, timing each other.

Normally, when dealing with a group of goblins alone, the theory is to divide the goblins into clumps of one or two and destroy each one. But that is not the case with sorcerers. Broad-spectrum magic also controls the number.

I loosened my mouth.

I’m sure you’ll be able to find a way to make your life easier.[Read this novel and other amazing translated novels from the original source at the “Novel Multiverse dot com” website @ novelmultiverse.com]

“geeeeeaaaaaa!!!!”

The goblins roared and rushed in like crazy.

“Ugh……!”

“– ‘Thunder’.”

A magic circle floating overhead.

From there, lightning falls as if sucked into the eye of all the goblins.

Dazzling light and thunderclap. The inevitable lightning strike.

The goblins that were hit directly by the strike spit out smoke from their mouths, scorching their bodies black, and fall on their backs to the ground without a moment to scream. It was just a flash.

The goblins scattered in all directions were swept up by my lightning strike.

The ground is scorched, and gray smoke curls up.

“It’s a blow……, well, that’s what happens to goblins.”

Nina and Arthur, who have been watching behind me, let out words with a surprised look on their faces.

“In a moment….. You are getting used to it.”

“Amazing ……”

“Haha, well, that’s what a goblin would do. You’ve seen my magic before, right? It’s not that I didn’t do anything wrong, I just unleashed my magic, as usual, you know? –Well, if I were to say, you’ll end up surrounded by people if you don’t take your time. Speed is important.”

“Speed matters…..”

Arthur approached the goblin’s corpse and poked at it.

“–You’re not an adventurer, are you?”

“……Nope.”

“It’s not so much that you’re relaxed about it like you were comfortable with ……. I think the usual is the first barrier for us.”

“Lowood is a rural area, so I had a lot of opportunities to do that. I’m not the only one, you know?　Even the strongest villagers can stand up to goblins with clubs and axes.”

“Oh, ……, you’re way ahead of us in that sense…….”

Then the director student – a hollow appears from behind and starts counting the fallen goblins.

“–Four of them. The ability to accurately kill goblins, the courage to not be intimidated even when surrounded by four people. It’s perfect. This will count as Noah’s war record.”

Theo Hollow smoothly writes something on a piece of paper in his hand.

“…..Hmm, it’s our turn now.”

“Yes.”

Arthur and Nina looked at each other and nodded.

“What’s wrong?”

“No, I just thought, I can’t have Noah all dressed up.”

“We’re magicians too. ……! I’m a little relieved to hear that things are fine as usual. We’ve been shown a sample …… and now it’s our turn!”

“Ha, that’s nice. Let’s see. I don’t want to be the only one to defeat all the goblins.”

“Go, Sarah!”

The red spirit shaped like a lizard – the salamander moves to match Nina’s behavior and spits out a mouthful of evil flames.

Forming a vortex-like shape, the searing flames surround the two goblins.

”Giaaaa!”

All at once, the flames swell like a tornado, and the goblins soar into the air, scorched.

“Me too!”

Arthur brings his hands together to create a block of ice.

When it splits into two and produces a handle, he spins it around and holds one in each hand, spinning it around.

“Oraaaa!”

Using his athletic body movements, Arthur cuts down two goblins with his two swords in a flowing manner.

His speed is moderately fast, and it is clear that he is a competent enough swordsman.

In total, the four goblins were defeated in the blink of an eye and rolled to the ground.

“Phew! …… Yes!　Did you see Noah!　That’s what I’m going through!

Arthur’s two-handed sword melted away and disappeared.

“Good move for the first time.”

“Hehe, I was a former family, this is just a piece of cake!”

Arthur smiles happily as he says

“Come back, Sarah!”

The salamander runs up from Nina’s feet and stops at her shoulder.

“Salamander…… fire spirits?”

“Yeah! Isn’t it cute?”

Salamander flickers his tongue of flame from his mouth.

“You’re right, it is adorable. It’s not just a matter of time before you find yourself in the same situation.”

“Hehe, not so much.”

“Unlike us, it’s quite advantageous to be able to change the attributes of the spirits you summon. It’s honestly awesome.”

“Ehehehe …… I’m glad to hear your praise, Noah.”

Nina scratched the back of her head and twisted around in embarrassment.

“Noah eight, Nina two, Arthur two–That’s a total of 12 for the party. That’s a pretty good start.”

Even the supervisor smiles at the results.

“Hey! I’ll tell you, this party ain’t just Noah and Nina! I’ll take care of it!”

“Hey, hey, don’t forget what your teacher told you.”

“Hmm?”

“It’s really dangerous getting used to taking them down, and the most dangerous part is when we’re arrogant. Just be careful.”

“I know! Now, let’s go deeper!”[Read this novel and other amazing translated novels from the original source at the “Novel Multiverse dot com” website @ novelmultiverse.com]
