Chapter 27 - Chapter 27: Goblin Battle

The Following day

'Finally, something that looks normal around these parts.' He thought to himself as he was currently hiding in a tree, looking down upon his prey, he noticed it looked like a regular deer, sleeping soundly in the middle of the forest. Sirus grinned widely as he slowly pulled back his arm that was holding the sword, well, it didn't look like a sword more like a sharpened bone, so it was more considered as a bone spear. He aimed it at the centre of the deer as his aim wasn't the best so he would go for the body.

[Swoosh]

[Putchi]

[Erekkkk] Whatever a deer sounds like.

"YES!" Sirus shouted as he pierces the deer, he jumped down and landed in front of the deer. But he noticed something about this deer.

"What the fuck? A double-headed deer? I should have never expected a normal-looking deer in the monster forest." Sirus exclaimed as he grabbed his knife and sliced both of the deer necks as he held them in his arms and waited until the blood stops flowing out.

As he dragged the head of the deer back to the river, he glanced back at the double-headed deer.

"The hell I'm I suppose to do with a double-headed deer? Just the body will be good enough to make me full. At least I think so?" He shook his head and put the thoughts back of his head. he arrived at the river at the opposite side where the village was.

"I don't need to cook it in the village, I never skinned a deer or much less gutted a deer. The only thing close to that was me gutting a chicken. I could use the hide for some things If I don't mess up which most likely will happen since this is my first time."

He scratched the back of his head and tried to think where he should first cut the deer.

He placed his spear on the floor near the rocks of the river and with his knife crouched down in front of the deer.

"The most sense would start from the stomach, wait no, I cut the skin of countless chickens before." He shook his head and remembered how to skin an animal. "If I remember you cut the head and then cut the knees and basically pull it from the head. Though this thing has two heads?"

Sirus decided to cut one of the heads including the neck and made a cut around the other head, then he cut off the knees and started pulling from the head with all his might.

Surprisingly he managed to pull off the hide after a few strong tugs. With a satisfied expression, he started to gut the deer and cook it on the fire.

Nothing was unusual about the inner body except he found two hearts.

Half an hour passes by and he's laying down with his head resting on a root of a tree.

"Tastes a bit familiar with the other animal that almost killed me, but never a less a good meal. I better sleep next to the Great Tree encase monsters come for the rest of the deer." He muttered as he picked up his tools and headed to the Great Tree to sleep.

The Next Morning

Sirus woke up and did the usual as he washed his face and did a quick stretch as he got ready to move.

"Bone spear check, bone knife check and well, that's it. Time to walk towards the Human Village again and then what should I do once I get my new set of clothes?" He pounded for a while before he would come up with the idea of he would try to figure it out once he got his new set of clothes. With that said he ventured out and walked across the river and started walking towards the Humann Village.

A few days pass by and nothing interesting happened as he rested and hunted rabbit-like animals and also the double-headed deer, he left the hide back at the Village as he didn't know what to use it for. He was half a week away from the Human Village.

________________

"My body is back to normal again since I been drinking and eating properly and my body is back to the same now. But honestly, I'm disappointed at the so called monster forest, I saw nothing but rabbit-like animals and those double-headed deer that pose no threat against me. I suppose it's good but I was hoping for a little fun and action." He paused as he continued walking along the river as he looked around. "Maybe because I'm walking along the river? That could be why I can't see any monsters to fight." He continued walking for the next 3 days when he got so bored agitated for some action he decided to walk into the forest.

"This is a bad idea, I should be focusing on my goal, but it's worth it." He said as he chuckled.

He walked into the forest for a good hour and a half, as he walked closer he heard countless growls and roars coming in the distance. This only made Sirus more excited to fight, he continued walking for another 20 minutes when he stopped in his tracks as he saw a wide entrance to a cave to his left.

"A cave? Huh, well I'm sure I'm bound to see something in their then walking until I stumble across something that might even not be worth fighting, cave it is then." He walked into the cave as he swung his knife around as there were veins and spider webs covering the entrance of the cave. He walked for a few minutes before looking back with a confused look.

"I can see clearly but there's no way the sun should be able to enter the cave. I'm clearly deep in the cave so why can I still see perfectly inside?" He thought a while as he looked around seeing if there were gaps or holes in the roof that sunlight could enter through.

"The roof is completely covered so why can I see still? The only thing I can think of is, night vision. Wait did I reach the age where I can see in the dark? If so then I'm around 1 year old, maybe even older. That's the only thing I can think of that makes the most sense as to why I can see clearly in the dar..."

[Growrlll]

[Roar….]

Sirus got spoked for a second as he suddenly heard countless growls and roars coming deep within the cave. But a smirk formed on his face.

"Finally, some action." He said as he walked carelessly towards the countless growls coming deep in the cave. Sirus stopped walking as he saw countless glowing golden eyes peering through the darkness, and one by one small green humanoid creatures emerged from the dark, they were all wearing ragged torn clothing with rusty swords and some were holding smalls knifes. As they came out of the dark, Sirus knew what these things were.

"Goblins? So Goblins really do live in caves such as these and there seem to be more than 20 of these guys."

"Intruder!"

"Go tell big gob."

"What he want?"

"Deer?"

The Goblins slowly approached the intruder as they surrounded it from all sides with their knives and swords pointing at the unknown creature that looked like a deer with its legs. But its skin colour made it look like a Human. They had no idea what came into their home.

The Goblins talked to each other as they slowly closed in the intruder.

"Not surprised I can't understand them, but there's still more coming, now these guys will entertain me just fine." As soon Sirus spoke the Goblins froze with shock and fear painted on their faces.

Sirus was confused as to why they looked so frightened as he looked around the small half metre Goblins, some were a few inches taller.

"D-Deamon!"

"D-D-D. Deamon!"

"What Deamon doing here!"

"Kill!"

"ARGHH!"

The Goblins started to run towards the Deamon as they roared.

"All at once? Well, considering Goblins are weak, this shouldn't worry me much." He said as he coldly smiled subconsciously, he threw his spear with such force that it pierced 2 Goblins.

He dropped his knife and got into his kickboxing stance. The first wave of Goblins jumped at Sirus while some tried to stab his legs.

Sirus laughed as he crouched down and placed his left hand on the floor as support and swept the floor to the left with such force using his hind legs and cracked several of the Goblins legs, the sounds of bones cracking echoed throughout the cave.

'As expected of Goblins, their bones are like nothing." Sirus thought as he jumped back up and lifted his right leg and twisted his body behind, he lifted his legs higher and kicked at the 4 Goblins who first jumped at him, with ease he kicked the sides of the Goblins and their bodies collided in mid-air. Their bodies flew into the cave walls, upon impact their faces and bodies smashed against the wall and blood splatted all over the walls. The sounds of countless broken bones echoed throughout the cave.

The Goblins stopped their attacks as they shivered in fear as they saw their brethrens flew into the wall as blood splatted all over the place.

"What! Is that all you got! I could have plenty of punches and kicks to spare! Come at me with all you got! HAHAHAHAHA."
