161 Goblin Champion
—–
Problems arose the moment we began to run away from the goblin village, a group of goblins circled around us and quickly and easily ambushed us, they found us out when we were in our weakest points, and they quickly attempted to catch us off guard.
The giant three-meter goblin in front of us was holding another javelin on one of his hands, while a smaller goblin was carrying a bunch of them as if it were an assistant.
I glanced at this Goblin, its strength... it was clearly a monster above Tier 3... Tier 4? A mere big goblin?!
“We are surrounded! That Javelin... I didn’t see it coming...” said Aquarina.
“That guy’s trouble... He got some sort of special technique on him... he’s definitely not a normal goblin,” said Zack.
“I know...” I said.
My eyes flashed with bright yellow-gold light, as information about this creature emerged inside of my head as if I was turning the pages of an encyclopedia.

.....
[Goblin Champion]
A strong variant of a Goblin, born naturally talented for magic and weapon techniques, it has developed a powerful physique and can easily outgrow its own parents over a few months of having been born. They’re more intelligent than normal goblins, and often lead entire goblin villages.

A Goblin Champion? So these guys have variants? That explains why he’s so big and strong, and I can even notice a powerful magical aura coming from him...
“Grekekeke...”
The Goblin Champion began to laugh as it glared down at us with a malicious smile, he licked his lips while drooling saliva, grabbing a new javelin, and then infusing it with mana.
The other goblins began to slowly approach us while holding weapons, they were ready to attack us from all sides and gang over us with everything they had.
And I could notice a few other Goblins in the back, holding bows and even conjuring magic on their own. The situation was dire, but our parents’ spirits were with us overlooking the situation... Spirits were stronger the more they were closer to their master, so they were quite far by now, I don’t know if they’re strong enough to take down entire battalion of goblins, but they would act whenever we were to get into a dire situation.
But for now, I couldn’t simply rely on them forever, one day I was going to grow up and I won’t have them with me all the time, this is... a trial, and I have to show my parents I am ready to take on the trials of this dangerous world.
Only by adapting to these dangers and threats and getting used to fighting is when I would truly become someone strong, someone that can survive in this world on my own without needing to be guided all the time by my parents.
I think Aquarina thought the same, and to an extent, Zack too. The two of them swallowed saliva as they looked around the situation while things slowly turned more dangerous. They grabbed their weapons and infused them with their elemental mana, as auras of their elements emerged out of their bodies, making the Goblins and even the Goblin Champion more wary of us.
“Pyu!”
However, and suddenly, the one I never thought would attack first decided to move! Pyuku had stolen the bows and arrows of the goblins it ate, and suddenly used them masterfully! Its tentacles extended around it and by holding four arrows at the same time, it fired them all at the same time, all four flying into different directions!
Wait, that was an Archery Technique! ...Is this? did Pyuku somehow learned techniques by eating the goblins?
What kind of weird monster are you?!
FLASH! FLASH! FLASH! FLASH!
The arrows were infused with Pyuku’s mana, which had grown in size after eating the magic crystals of the goblins, apparently. The arrows reached four goblins that were the closest to us in mere seconds, piercing their heads and killing them all four on the spot!
CLASH! CLASH! CLASH! CLASH!
“Graaah?!”
“Gryeggh...!”
“Gruuh...”
“Aggraagh...!”
The green-skinned little men fell in the floor, dead on the spot!
“UGRAAA!”
The Goblin Champion grew more angered, pointing his javelin at me and firing it by infusing it with mana!
FLAAAASH!
The Javelin seemed to have been covered in a large amount of darkness! Was the Goblin Champion’s element the attribute of darkness and shadows?!
“Blazing Sword Technique: Spiraling Blazing Slash! HAAAH!”
I roared loudly as I utilized a powerful Sword Technique, coating my blade in flames that turned black and purple-colored, gaining the curse attribute of my blade, I gave a jump and then spiraled my own body in midair, unleashing a vortex of flames from my blade which clashed against the sharp Javelin reaching up to me.
BOOOOMMM!!!
The flames caught the Javelin in time, stopping it from reaching me, but the vortex ended being way more powerful than it usually was! Was this the effect of this sword?
The moment it reached the Javelin and consumed it in flames, the spiraling vortex of black flames reached the Goblin Champion in an instant, as the muscular green skin opened his eyes wide in surprise, quickly conjuring a barrier made of shadows!
CLAAAAASH!
The flames spread around as they clashed against his barrier made of shadows, the little assistant goblin it had was consumed by them, as these black flames I was able to conjure had the properties of curse within them, becoming incredibly vicious whenever they caught a target, continuing to burn them no matter how hard they tried to turn off the flames.
The rest of the flames generated a shockwave of heat around the other goblins, destabilizing their guard, which Pyuku, Zack, and Aquarina used to fight back.
“Ocean Knife Arts: Ocean God’s Trident!”
Aquarina used her infamous Arts, as she moved incredibly quickly, the water over her knife gathered and shaped as an enormous and sharp trident! She moved incredibly quickly and attacked the goblins before her.
CLASH! CLASH! CLASH!
