Battle Harem of the Heavenly Sword

34 Of Goblins and Calibers

"KYAA!!!!! STOP! LET ME GO!" "HELP!" "SAVE ME!!!!!!"

In the middle of the forests, women had their bodies dragged on the ground by the hair on their heads. Their bodies were badly bruised and covered in blood, sweat, and filth. Originally female adventurers the women got ambushed by monsters known as goblins.

The goblins were monsters that looked like small humans with bodies like 10-year-old toddlers. Alone each goblin could be considered weak but in group battles, they became extremely dangerous. They use poison, tricks, feints, and hostages to bait, trap, and defeat stronger adventurers due to their vile natures.

This group in particular had in addition five 200 cm tall burly evolved goblins known as hobgoblins. The hobgoblins unlike their lower-ranked cousins fought like berserkers. Novice adventurers could not take on hobgoblins. Thus it was only natural for multiple small groups of the unprepared to be defeated.

While the male adventurers got murdered immediately, the goblin's notoriety came from kidnapping the females of any humanoid race and using them as breeding sows for the monsters. The five human women in this current group had their weapons and clothing stripped and are in transit into the goblin's den, where a fate worse than death awaited them.

Some of the women who knew of this attempted to end their lives, only to be knocked out and carried like livestock instead. Out of the five women, two were unconscious, one fainted from panic, another due to exhaustion and the last one cried as her body got dragged on the ground in the nude.

'Please, someone save me, I don't want to give birth to monsters. Please! I'm scared! I don't want to die!'

Inwardly she continued pleading, as the monsters traveled with the five of them, each goblin disgustingly licking its lips. They anticipated the reward of procreating with the women once they got home. The goblins knew how new adventures looked down on them, thus they regularly ambushed those that got too careless.

The five captives are the spoils from three different groups. Once they returned to their lair these women would be ravaged out of their minds, every day till they give birth, only to have the cycle repeated until they died. The goblins needed other races to give birth to their young, so it could be said that such actions ensured their survival.

Being among the weakest monsters goblins were often ignored by the powerful. So they thrived in the countryside or places akin to the boonies. This group of goblins had around forty to fifty members, a small colony, one enough to be a threat. The requests the adventurer guild made only listed ten to fifteen, thus the small groups that took the request were easily overwhelmed.

Repeat this cycle a few times and the monster's numbers would swell into the hundreds in a few weeks.

"KEKEKEKEKEKEKEKKE!" "HMPHH?!!"

The laughter and guttural noises of the goblins stop when they see a lone figure standing in front of them. He was a man of average height, armed with a simple Iron breastplate and a steel long sword.

- Alert: Mission: Slay goblin nest 0/15 quest updated - > Slay goblin horde 0/45 -

"Ho? It's not fifteen but forty-five? No wonder the quest has been going on for months. Well, that works better for me."

The man then drew out his longsword from its sheath and started to get himself into the zone.

"All right! Let's do this, I hate goblins."

Mana erupted out of Hiro's body and covered him like a suit of white energy. He then started running towards the Goblin horde, the monsters who saw the lone combatant all eagerly rushed towards him in mass like an angry mob. Even if most were killed, they would be able to use their bodies to grab and hinder Hiro for the stronger goblins to strike.

This was how goblin society worked as a whole, the weak are fodder for the strong. Hiro then brought his longsword to bear when the first wave of 5 goblins arrived within striking distance. Armed with small knives and short clubs the transmigrator naturally had the range advantage.

"[Square Cut]!"

The man then started to move in a pre-mediated attack pattern. Hiro dropped low and swung his sword for a horizontal slash, the steel easily ripped through the wart-covered skin of the monsters, 3 of the goblins immediately died from the blow.

- Alert: Quest updated 3/45! 75 exp gained! -

The other two leaped up to smash Hiro's face only for the man to step back and swing his sword upward from low to high, completely bisecting one of the jumping goblins, the last goblin swung his weapon to attack Hiro's cheek only for his knife to bounce off like it struck a wall.

- Alert: Quest updated 4/45! 25 exp gained! -

- Alert: [Mana Armor] in effect, host has lost 10 MP! -

Hiro then sliced the goblin's throat with another horizontal slash and then completed a square by bringing his sword down from the goblin's neck region.

The action opened up the toddler-like body of the goblin and forced its insides to spill out. Its intestines and organs spilled onto the floor causing the other advancing goblins to pause.

- Alert: Quest updated 5/45! 25 exp gained! -

"Well not a bad start, That last strike was wasted, next time come in groups of six you fuckers! Let's dance!"
