Chereads / The White Haired Loli [Dropped] / Chapter 19 - First Mission (Part 3)

Chapter 19 - First Mission (Part 3)

Somewhere in the beginner's forest just outside of the town Plutia resides in.

"Teacher how come we haven't spotted any goblins yet?"

"I don't know Brian. Maybe we'll find more we keep looking for some."

"Eh~? I really want to fight right now though!" Brian said without any spirit in him.

"And I don't want any of you to get hurt. Why am I even doing this?" Mrs. Hummel told him while muttering the second bit to herself quietly.

"Err, little Plutia since you were a guild receptionist for a year do you know the surroundings?"

"Un." Plutia said while staying on the opposite side of where Nicole was while clinging onto Mrs. Hummels right arm.

"I-I already apologized didn't I?"

"Un! I did to!."

Sally and Nicole both stated to Plutia who was still afraid of them while Laura just nodded her head to agree with the two.

Plutia who heard them state this just gave them the cold shoulder as she remembered what they had done to her even though she was pleading them to stop while tears were streaking down her face.

'Should have stopped when I told you to. Hmph.' Plutia retorted them in her mind.

"Say Plutia-chan since you know the location well, do you know where the nearest cave is? Goblins usually live in caves." Robert asked as he had done a little bit of adventuring with Peter and Sally before.

"Un, the nearest one is about a 5 minute walk from here going East." Plutia replied to him as she pointed her fingers toward's where the sun was rising.

The group then started heading towards where the East was until they saw a cave. What they saw at the entrance though were bloodstains and weapons.

"Were people here recently?" Sally asked.

"Yeah, the blood smells fresh like it just came out two minutes ago." Hastur replied.

Clink Clang Clang

"I hear some fighting! Let's go in!" Laura who heard this with her elven ears notified the group.

"""Alright!""" The group said in unison excluding Plutia as they rushed toward's the entrance of the cave.

"Be careful students! The goblins can use weapons as well! Keep your vigilance and defenses up as they can multiply really quickly!" Mrs. Hummel told the students.

"""Yes teacher!.""" The group yelled in unison as they had their weapons out ready to attack the monsters that appear excluding Plutia who only had her weapon drawn but was walking casually.

"Hey! Plutia, don't randomly stroll ahead! It's dangerous for you!." Mrs. Hummel scolded Plutia when she noticed how Plutia was walking nonchalantly towards the sounds of the sword's clashing against one another.

"If we don't hurry up the person that is fighting the goblins will die you know?"

"U-ugh. You're right! Class let's go! We can't let someone die, that's just not right!" Mrs. Hummel said as she lead the class towards the sounds of fighting.

"ORAA! Take this!" A voice Plutia remembered hearing over a week ago.

'Isn't this that newbie's voice?' She thought.

When the group reached the scene they saw 20 dead goblin corpses while a 15 year old male was surrounded on all sides by at least 40 more goblins. They were stunned at how powerful the male was due to him fighting them all on his own excluding Plutia and Mrs. Hummel who were adventurers before and were high ranked.

"I give my prayers to heaven for a wish, give me the power I need to burn the enemies in front of me. Fireball!" Nicole's chant was heard as a fireball headed toward's the nearest goblin and burnt it to a crisp.

Fwoosh~ Fwoosh~ Fwoosh~

Laura shot 3 arrows out of her bow as they all accurately pierced through three heads of the goblins that were near the male in the middle.

"Fireball." The spell was said from Mrs. Hummel as multiple fireballs appeared instead of an enormous one and massacred the goblins.

When the spells were finished Robert, Brian, and Peter rushed in with their weapons and met the goblins on an offensive brawl attempting to lure away some of the goblins on the male.

Brian ran up to the nearest goblin with his sword and brought his blade down onto the goblin's head. The goblin's body was split perfectly into two pieces with blood spraying out everywhere.

Robert and Peter both decided to charge into the area the male was in as they formed a triangle to fend off the goblins from all directions.

"Thanks!" The male said.

""No problem!"" The both of them replied as they brought their swords down on more goblins.

"I give my prayers to heaven for a wish, give me the power I need to save the people I care about. Heal!" Sally chanted as the four male started to feel more refreshed.

At this point Plutia decided to join the fray with her katana in hand as she walked up to the goblins briskly.

The goblins who noticed her thought her as easy prey as she was a little girl that looked weak. Thus they decided to leave the 3 boys they were surrounding and headed straight for her.

"""Plutia watch out!""" They all yelled out in unison when they noticed the goblins directing their attention towards here.

Plutia who heard this already saw the goblins rush towards her. She put her katana in her sheathe as she got in her stance. As she bent her body a bit when the goblins got into a certain range she pulled out her katana in a godly speed.

Swish~

Plutia who pulled the katana out of her sheathe at an unbelievable speed also left an afterimage as she ended up behind the entire goblin group unharmed and without a single speck of blood on her blade or her clothing.

She then slowly put her katana into her sheathe. As if the katana was a mechanic itself, every time it got closer to being sheathed entirely the goblins felt more pain.

"""GABU!!!""" The goblins screamed as a huge cut on all of their chests appeared when Plutia finally sheathed her katana fully.

"Just what was that?" Nicole asked in a daze as the incredible scene replayed in her mind.

"Eh? Aren't you that girl that helped me register as an adventurer?" The male asked.

"Oh, so it was you Roger Knot. Nice to meet you." Plutia replied.

"So it was you! What are you doing here anyway?" He asked her.

"Just doing a goblin subjugation mission I guess?" Plutia said as she cutely tilted her head to the side as if wondering 'I mean what else did you think we came here for?'.

"Ah, I'm doing a goblin subjugation mission as well! Even though my first mission was also that goblin subjugation when we first met."

"Ah, you're correct. Since we're finished we're gonna go now!" Plutia said as she walked back to Mrs. Hummel.
