This forest's leader fear me, just like I've thought.
As I boasted that with confidence, my 『Magic Perception』 sensed a group of demon closing in.
Problems really do come suddenly.
In front of us was, creepy, 30 humanoid demons.
That has a small stature.
Shabby equipment.
Lightly dirty and has an expression that makes them look stupid.
Even so, it's not like they don't poesses any intelligence. They even have sword and shield, ax and even a bow.
My brain cell, instantly breaks these guys true form.
「The famous adventurer attacker demons! Yep, the Goblins!!!」 (Fumiko)
Certainly a template.
Then the attack begin against the weak human, yes, me?
wait, a beginner facing off against 30 goblins is to much.
However, for some reasons fear won't arise.
My instincts tell me not to fear these guys.
The swords are rusted and the armor is thin. And they even have clothes coiled around them are that rotting.
I can even round up these bunch with just a single skill.
While thinking that I look at the group's leader opening its mouth.
「Guga, strong person… Do you have any business with us?」(Goblin Leader)
The goblin spoke.
Or possibly, I can understand them because of『Magic Perception』.
「Wait, they are referring to me right.」
They surround us with weapons, and carefully approached.
「What the heck are these guys thinking?」 (Fumiko)
It piqued my interest.
It seems like they aren't going to attack and steal anything from us.
Will my words come through, testing will also help.
I tried to hold a conversation with the Goblins.
Meanwhile in unknown place
The age of myth
The destruction of All multiverses, reducing the hyperdimensional layer of the outer world to ash and even killing the outer gods. The new Tengoku God has been born.
The name was Shun Ishigami
「….So how about it?」
The Demon god Daeva uttered these words whilst sitting on his throne with his arms crossed.
With just that a normal god would be in fear from the power of his words, however, the beings in front of him right now do not have that worry because they exist the same existence as him, transcending all creation below them and viewing it nothing as a fiction.
The God of fate, the god who rules over all future and possibilities Purysho.
The mother of all concepts, the grand spirit Ishtar.
And the creator of this world, the creation God Militeia.
Including Daeva, they control this world's plot. Four gods who's transcendent in all way. they gather in the hall of the kingdom of creators.
「I understand the story, but is it okay to let such being exist in this world to roam free in the 3 dimensional world? It's ridiculous」 (Purysho)
「It's okay, We've set an finite Dimensional space in the third Dimension, so even if he awakens it won't reach the outer world」 (Ishtar)
「Grand Spirit Ishtar, are you sure that's enough to hold a Tengoku God?」 (Purysho)
「No, not even a infinite Dimensional structure such as the Heaven Essence could withstand the power an awakening Tengoku god..」 (Daeva)
「Like Daeva said, a Tengoku God is a being that can even reach the Sacred Presence which exists beyond and all creation including us and their hierarchies. We cannot contain it nor hold it, all we can do now is read his story like a book until he kill us all」 (Militeia)
Back in the present world.
First, I glanced at the group of goblins.
From the view of the goblins, they were definitely thinking that they were already doing their best. Cautiously readied their weapons and constantly looking over here. However, regretfully, a few of them were already trying to run away.
But, as expected of the leader. Only it truly managed to look straight at me.
「Hey shun! I can feel intelligence from this guy's body. Maybe we can really hold a conversation.」(Fumiko)
「Eh, will it work?」
I added my thoughts into the voice I spoke, and tried to converse with it.
「Hello, It's the first time we've met, I am Shun, and she's fumiko, we're humans.」
The goblins made a commotion.
Is it really that rare for a human to speak? As I thought about that… there were even fellows that dropped their weapons and started bowing down….
What is the meaning of this?
「Guga, strong one! Your strength, we have already fully understood it. Please calm down!」(Goblin Leader)
Mn? Was the power of my thought too strong?
I clearly only wanted to converse with them here.
「Sorry, this is very hard to control.」
Well, all in all, I should apologize first.
「You, you don't have exaggerate. Please don't apologize to the insignificant us.」
Looks like, it's possible to communicate. This should become pretty good practice.
By the way, I used Japanese. I didn't think that they'd be able to comprehend it even like this, how unexpected.
「Then, what do you need from us? We're only strolling around here, we don't really have any business, okay?」(Fumiko)
Although I should answer politely after being asked politely, they looked way too afraid, and I couldn't help but to sound a little rough.
「Is that so… actually ahead of here, is our village. Because we felt a strong demon's aura, we came here to investigate.」
「Strong demon's aura? That kind of thing, I didn't feel anything like that….」
「Guga, Gugaga. You jest! Even if your appearance is like that, our eyes still won't be fooled!」
Looks like, these fellows completely misunderstood.
They probably thought that a demon with very strong power transformed into the appearance of a human.
In the end they're still goblins, they were very famous for being the lower level existence amongst demons.
After that, me and fumiko chatted with them for a while, and the topic changed to visiting their village.
Seems like they are even inviting us to rest there. While they were clearly shabby looking, they really are some cordial fellows..
though we do need to sleep, resting for a little doesn't sound bad either. Thinking this, I accepted their invitation.
Along the way, I heard a lot from them.
Like, recently they lost the god they had faith in.
Like, along with the disappearance of their god, the demons started getting more active.
Like, the numbers of powerful adventurers who were invading the forest was currently increasing.
And as we chatted, I unknowingly became able to clearly understand their speech.
Seems like [Magic Perception] had already gotten used to conversing.
Before speaking with humans, having goblins as practicing partners is really great.
As we chatted about these things, I could already see the village.
Although it's a village, I feel like it needs some quotation marks.
After all, it's a goblin's nest. I really shouldn't have expected much.
