Reincarnated As A Wolf With Cheats
173 Lying
"Nani!?", Shin was surprised by what the goblin mage just said.
His eyes widened as he continuously stared at him wondering about what he just said.
"Yes!"
"He will lead us in the fight against the humans!", the goblin mage shouted again.
Shin failed to understand what was going on, he tried to recall when he made such a promise!
'The heck! Why would I lead the goblins?', he asked himself.
'Is this goblin crazy?'
He stared at the goblin mage as he continued to spew more nonsense.
"Listen to me all, he is our only hope!"
"You guys might not know but he is extremely strong!"
"If he leads us, then we will definitely win against the humans."
The mage continued to shout at the top of his voice while trying to convince everyone. Of course, he had to wait for others to arrive since everyone had to listen, but that was not how the goblins worked.
The lower goblins, who didn't have even a speck of intelligence had to follow every order of the intelligent ones. This was the norm since ancient times and it was by no means wrong since the mages or the intelligent goblins could provide better strategies or ideas when compared to others.
The goblin mage thought that he did a pretty good job and thus turned his head to the back while seeing if Shin was pleased and happy. But oh well, Shin was pissed. He was completely displeased by what just happened!
"You..."
"Come here.", Shin said with a suppressed voice.
He was trying his best to suppress his anger because that could end up agitating other goblins.
The mage walked a few steps closer to Shin right after which Shin yelled at him, "When the heck did I promise to lead the goblins!?"
'Ma-'
'Master, calm down!', he said in hurry.
*gulp*
"Hear me out master, I know this is too out of the normal, but please, for now, can you agree to lead them?", the goblin asked.
Shin wanted to yell more, however, he thought that it was better to do as the goblin said, for now, that is.
"Fine.", he agreed.
The goblin then turned back towards the caves and said, "Rejoice, now our victory is certain!"
Although Shin knew not what the goblins were spewing, he agreed and acted accordingly.
"Victory!"
"Victory!"
Now, this became a new chant. It was as if the goblins were really going to wage some war. Probably their morale was low for certain reasons and to counter that and increase their morale, the goblin mage used Shin's name.
Other goblin mages, a total of four, excluding the one near to Shin, didn't speak or say anything. They too felt that their victory had become certain.
All the goblins started to return to the cave as per the mages' orders. It seemed as if they had something important to discuss with Shin because of which they asked others to return.
*tap tap*
The mages started walking towards Shin. All of them had staff that was similar to what the other goblin mage was holding.
They walked quickly towards Shin, then turned towards the mage who was near Shin and asked, "Is he really fit to lead us!?"
Their question was not wrong at all. Who would want some other race to rule or lead them? It would be pretty weird and would symbolize their recessiveness!
Well, unless one is truly strong, it would be weird. But the goblins were ready to accept a strong being to lead them however at the moment, there was not a single trait of Shin that appealed to the mages.
Yes, they questioned the judgment of the fifth mage who seemed close to Shin.
"Heh, you guys don't know anything about master!", he smirked.
"What?", the goblins were confused.
They too wanted to see what it was that caused the mage to believe and trust in Shin.
They looked at Shin with expectant eyes as if they were waiting for him to show his majestic form or true strength.
"Sigh...", Shin was wondering what he was doing her.
He had no reason to go with what the goblin mage asked. He did agree initially but now that other goblins had gone inside, he could easily escape.
"Before I show you anything, I want you to tell me something.", he demanded.
Yes, he initially came to know about Aella and now he was finally about to ask.
"What is it?", the mages asked.
"Aella, have you seen her?"
"Did she, by chance, come here?"
The system still showed that he had arrived at his destination, meaning that the traces of her footprints or scent definitely ended here.
Though, he could only get a faint scent here when compared to the edge of the forest. That was because the goblins' scent was too powerful and prickly.
The mages looked at each other and shook their heads.
"No, we haven't seen any white wolf other than you here.", said one of the mages.
The mage who knew Shin showed signs of surprise. His eyes were widened and there were slight sweat marks as if he was nervous.
'Hmm, so they didn't see her?', Shin lowered his head while thinking about that.
He had noticed the uneven change in expression on the faces of goblin faces but thought that it was something natural.
'Well, then did the system get it wrong?'
'Is it possible that it was some other wolf's footprints after all?', many thoughts came into Shin's mind.
And just when he was thinking about giving up and looking somewhere else, a thought crossed his mind.
'Wait a second, how do these goblins know that Aella is a white wolf?'
'I never mentioned that...'
Shin's eyes widened as he realized that. He was baffled because of three main reasons.
First of all, he was shocked by knowing that they knew that Aella was a white wolf. Secondly, he was surprised to see them hide that fact. There should be something that made them lie! Lastly, he was awed by how foolish the intelligent mages were.
