Episode 478 The Demonic Realm, the Underground (4)
“Kigigi Geek!”
“Keeeh!”
The goblins went wild.
Even the Goblin Queen, who was watching, couldn’t keep her mouth shut.
“This… is the result of what you call training…?”
It might not be known to Ray, but to the small goblins, it was like a rock the size of a house being cut down.
Besides, thinking that even the weak themselves could get away with training, they were more excited than Ray thought.
weakest monster.
It is small in size and weak in strength.
If there’s anything to be proud of, it’s only the fertility that surpasses other races.
However, it was not possible to reign over everyone with that alone.
The Goblin Queen had been thinking about it all her life.
And finally, they decided that what they needed was intelligence.
He thought about the future by killing his own kind, repeating evolution, and absorbing his kind.
But today.
I realized that I was a frog in the well.
The human in front of me is a body that is no different from them.
Even so, he did not form a group and came down to the 4th floor alone.
If the difference that exists between them and him is ‘training’.
The value to learn is considerable.
No, I had to bow my head and seek instruction.
The goblin queen descended from her tiny throne.
She carefully puts the corolla made of twigs and flowers on the floor and bows her head to her feet.
“Please teach us.”
The way he spoke was clearly different from before.
Rather than putting the opponent under you, it’s a tone that looks at you face to face and respects it.
I didn’t really feel bad.
Ray showed it and laughed.
“I will train you. At least to the point where you have no opponent until you reach the 5th floor.”
* * *
The goblins’ training began in the afternoon when the dungeon was bright.
At first, to check their stamina, I tried to force them to do something, but seeing that they followed it well, it seems that their basic stamina is clear.
“It’s not a 4th floor monster for nothing.”
If your stamina supports you, you can shorten the time.
Usually, you have to spend a month just to strengthen your body.
Ray cut down the trees of the goblin den and carved them into a wooden sword, albeit a rough one.
Trees are precious in dungeons.
Therefore, he could only make about a dozen wooden swords by cutting down a single tree.
Form a group by distributing the wooden swords you made to the goblins.
“You are number one. you too 1. You are number 2.”
“Kigi-geek?”
“Keiy.”
He has intelligence, so there will be no difficulty in understanding words.
As soon as they seemed to have split the group, Ray looked at the goblins and said.
“Pick up an order for each group. From the first order, he goes into practice with me.”
“Keeeh!”
Scared to speak, a goblin jumped out.
Then, the goblins assigned to the same group protested vehemently.
“Kieack!”
“Keeeeeee! Grow!”
I don’t know what they’re talking about, but they’re probably fighting because of order.
The Goblin Queen, who was watching them from the side, shouted.
“Don’t fight! Don’t we always tell each other to take turns!”
After saying that while grabbing all the forms that are not there, I quietly stand in front of Ray.
He even holds a wooden sword he made himself.
As the goblins looked at them with very uncomfortable glances, the goblin queen put an iron plate on her face and said,
“Even cold water has a top and a bottom. How can you not think of serving your queen?”
“Since the Queen is like this, the level of the people is like that.”
Ray clicked his tongue and raised a wooden sword.
As I got into my stance, the Goblin Queen also grabbed the sword with an unaccustomed hand.
Even though she is a queen, a goblin is a goblin no matter what.
When would they have tried holding a sword?
Seeing him look more like a beginner than a beginner, even going into actual combat becomes ridiculous.
Eventually, Ray dropped her sword and corrected the Goblin Queen’s posture.
“It is better to place the tip of the sword in the center of the opponent’s body. So that it can be changed to offensive or defensive at any time.”
“understood.”
I’m trying to correct it, but I feel a little uncomfortable to see something.
Searching for the cause, Ray looked at the Goblin Queen’s pelvis.
‘It must have been because of this.’
The goblin’s skeletal structure was slightly different from that of humans, but there was a corner.
It is natural that it is difficult to assume the same posture with a different skeleton.
Ray took the goblin queen’s left foot back to make her balance, and then used her right foot to set the line of sight so she could strike at any time.
After fixing that, it’s a bit cleaner now.
“When lowering the sword, you should lower it thinking that it is drawing a smooth curve. Just because you do it quickly doesn’t mean you’re good at it.”
“You mean like this?”
Whii Iik-.
I only explained it once, but the goblin queen followed suit.
To think that even among the goblins, there are those who have a talent for swordsmanship.
It is even more surprising because it is unexpected.
“Are you doing well? Let’s swing it ten thousand times today.”
“Ten thousand times.”
The Goblin Queen drool for a moment.
10,000 sword strikes is something that even well-trained soldiers struggle with.
It was the number of times that there was nothing wrong with goblins holding a sword for the first time even if they collapsed from exhaustion.
After correcting the goblin queen’s posture for the last time, Ray looked around at the other goblins and corrected the postures of the goblins who were clumsy.
Since the number of wooden swords was fixed, there were many goblins who only watched.
“I need more wooden swords for this…”
I had no choice but to cut down more trees.
Well, it’s a nest to leave anyway.
Who would say anything about cutting down some trees?
Ray made wooden swords according to the number of people and distributed them to the goblins.
Then, he wandered around the lair again and concentrated on correcting his posture.
* * *
After spending two full days guiding the goblins, there are now goblins that follow fairly well.
Perhaps it is the difference between goblins with talent and those without.
“Today is ten thousand times.”
“Ten thousand times!”
The Goblin Queen responded with a spinal cord reflex and swung her sword.
Will the goblins stand still if the queen follows?
The other goblins also swung their swords several times with their own spirits.
Ray looked at him and thought about something.
‘Although it absorbs mana from other monsters, the learning rate is too fast for this?’
It’s like teaching a child with an enormous intelligence.
As a sponge sucks up water, it learns its skills, but if you watch it, you might be afraid that a world of goblins might be coming in the not-too-distant future.
After striking the sword 10,000 times, he took off his beginner’s mask.
After hitting 10,000 times the next day, now some of the goblins are calm like stagnant water.
Wouldn’t it be possible for a sword master to be born among goblins?
Not kidding, it seemed like it would be possible in just five years if this pace was maintained steadily.
‘Now I can go into practice without any problems.’
It would be effective enough to teach only the sword, but what they need more than anything is experience.
If you only have skills and no experience, you are likely to die on the battlefield.
“Hee-eok… Hee-eok…”
“Keek… Kkeek…”
The Goblin Queen and the goblins were exhausted after slashing their swords 10,000 times.
Ray comforted them like that.
“Recess is over. Grab your sword and stand in front of me.”
“My body doesn’t move… Please let me rest for a bit…”
“What are you talking about? It’s been a long time since I’ve been warming up, so I’ll have to move before it cools down.”
“It’s really a monster… such a lack of mercy…”
“It’s nonsense, so get up quickly. I do not have time.”
In the next 5 days, the entrance to the basement inside the goblin lair will change.
That means you have to enter the 5th floor within 5 days.
He has made a lot of progress in two days, but he is still not up to the level of knights.
If you go down like this, you will be annihilated.
The goblins struggled to rise from their seats.
He looks at himself with resentful eyes.
Ray also responded to that.
“For three days from today, I will only develop a sense of actual combat. Well, since it’s a real battle, you’ll have no choice but to learn while getting hit.”
“Kieack!”
“Keew!”
The goblins protested vigorously.
However, his good ears, which only pick out the sounds he likes to hear, mercilessly repelled the goblins’ protests before they reached his ears.
After setting the order, a goblin stood in front of Ray.
The figure holding the sword while standing is quite heavy.
It wasn’t the same momentum as a well-forged sword yet, but this was enough to pass.
“Kigigiggeek.”
The goblin muttered something.
Then the Goblin Queen answers.
“Cold water has ups and downs, but those who stand on top must also know how to yield. Don’t complain, show a good side.”
“Kee…”
Rey said to the goblin.
“The first attack has an advantage over the second attack by half.”
The goblin, blinded by his words, charged recklessly.
There is no mate for black maseo or crude.
A level that barely takes off the womb of a beginner.
If this was a battlefield where life and death were to be fought, he would surely have been decapitated.
Ray, who easily avoided the goblin’s attack by twisting his shoulder lightly, immediately struck the goblin’s exposed back with a wooden sword.
percussion-!
“But if you push it blindly, you’re bound to get hit.”
“Kieack!”
The goblin let go of the sword as his back burned with the sudden pain.
Losing the sword on the battlefield means death.
Ray scolded sternly.
“No matter what happens, don’t let go of the sword!”
grasp-! grasp-! Pak-!
“Keew!”
He would say it was a noble teaching, but in the eyes of others, it seemed like he was just beating with excitement.
That moment.
Something was imprinted in the goblin’s brain.
‘If you miss the sword, you will die.’
Of course, it meant being beaten to death by Ray, but it wasn’t enough to change the goblin’s image.
Standing at the crossroads of life and death, the goblin quickly rolled over and picked up the dropped sword.
It was quite agile, so the goblins who were watching it were quite surprised.
“Keeeh!”
He got hit a few times, and he seems angry.
Perhaps realizing that he shouldn’t attack hastily, the goblin carefully looked for gaps in Ray.
‘Oh, that’s quite right.’
I didn’t teach you, but I instinctively know what to do.
It scans the opponent’s gaps and momentarily stabs them out of surprise.
It will be the most effective and fastest attack.
Ray sneaked a gap in his side.
I just bent my knees a little more in a standing position, but my posture is disturbed as if I was careless.
The goblin quickly thrust his sword into the gap.
“Kigigiggeek!”
Since it was a wooden sword, it wouldn’t kill me even if it hit me, but it was a blow that would have broken my ribs if it had been hit properly.
He pulled the goblin’s sword as if winding it around, then pushed it away in a diagonal line.
Then the chest opens up.
As the goblin had done, he stabbed his sword, stopping before it reached his chest.
Hu-wook-.
The heat that flowed from only one or two workshops rushed to the faces of those who watched.
