Chapter 6 - Life of an adventurer

On the way to the guild, Bae was thinking about what quest he have to pick when suddenly he bumped into a man, he was about the same age as Bae and slighter taller than him too. With black hair and an idiotic expression on his face, he is wearing a brown leather armor and he have a katana on his back. When he recovered from the shock, he wear a worried expression while saying to Bae

"Oy, Sorry I was in too much of a hurry now, I'm named Yuncheon Lee, nothing wrong ?" in the same time of bowing repetitively.

This man .... Is he not too much polite ? It was entirely my fault for not paying attention to my surrounding but it's him bowing ?

"No problem, I'm Bae i'm sorry too it was my fault I didn't pay attention to my surrouding"

When Lee heard this he sighed in relief and started laughing joyfully.

"Aha ! I was scared that I hurted you, do you have any plan today ? If no we can go to a tavern I invite you !"

Now he act like he was my best friend since childhood... How can I bump in a guy like that ? He is the type to save the young lady from the hand of bad guy ...

"I was planning to go to the adventurer's guilds to take a mission, I'm in need of money now."

"Do you need help ? I'm free today, I'm a professional you know ! I can be considered one of the best adventurer of this town !"

Was he not in a hurry like two minute ago ? Well It's not like I will refuse free hand to get me money.

"Sure, come with me !"

I'm not really skeptical but when we entered the guild and that I heard the adventurer stopped talking instantly when Lee entered while looking at me with an embarrassed expression, that was really weird. Well, I don't care if he had a bad reputation here if he can help me, we choose the goblin mission, it was the easiest and fastest after all for me that was still a beginner. After that I was really sure that something was wrong when I heard from two receptionist whispering :

"Is he not the guy who failed every single mission he took here? I heard he always returned without injury while his group got hospitalized every time."

"Yes he is. I apologize to the guy who formed a party with him, I don't even know how the guild master didn't already expel him from here."

Yes, I was the guy they talk about, only me formed a party this morning. Lee always look at me like a dumb ass with a innocent look. He has not even a hint of being ashamed. I really hit the jackpot this time,

Fine, after all everything is already done so let's kill goblin now ! We departed from the town to the forest where I started everything. The memory from back then still frighten me but they are not as scary as before, and I'm not solo this time ! Everything will be successful ! Unless that fool doesn't stop talking when we are in I'm confident, after all one goblin have power inferior to G-. They are only a menace when they have weapon in their hand, the only deal is they weapon. They've lived all of their life killing to survive, everyone of them is stupid but they have their instinct. If we could properly setup a trap and kill them in one move that would be for the best.

While Bae was trying to create a plan to kill efficiently these goblin, he arrived with Lee in the forest where he dodged the goblin last time and they instantly got sight of a goblin eating a deer not far from them. Lee immediately got serious, he himself know that he was purely a beginner but he still learned something from his previous expedition and he instantly unsheathed his katana from his back. Bae was frightened, the goblin in front of him have a spear like the goblin back then, he immediately thought of the moment he got pierced by this weapon and fear got him. But when he glanced at Lee who was acting serious and his weapon in his hand, Bae surpass his fear and also unsheathed a small damaged steel sword that he got at a blacksmith who labelled this weapon failed. He has spent his last economy in it and a feeling of superiority engulfs him.

Yes, last time I was powerless but now I also have a weapon ! But he also start to worry while looking at lee, is he really a dumb guy ? He look like he didn't fear these goblin. Sure one goblin is almost powerless with his power but if we don't one-shoot him we can only run. When the goblin sense a feeling of death pending on him and he didn't have any chance of winning he will shoot and all his race nearby would come help him get food.

With a surge of courage instantly sprinted toward the eating goblin, the goblin only heard him when he was twenty feet away and he stood up facing Bae with his spear ready while wearing a grim expression as if he was mocking him for coming disturbing his meal. Bae put his sword in front of him and he closed his eye nervously, that was his first time killing a living being and he is still apprehensive of doing it. He felt his sword slicing through a thing like tofu and nothing after that. When he opened his eye, the first thing he saw was a goblin plugged in his sword lifeless. Blood surging out from the wound that sprayed Bae with blood. A very bad smell force him to tight his nose and he belch forth instantly. His mood was constantly changing from fear to worry and tear. It was his first kill in this world and surely his first step to gradually reach the apex of this world !
