Chapter 40 - Chapter - 40

Iris nodded and said,

"Yeah, I also think that it was not the chief... what do you think Pete? "

Morsh said,

"Why don't you go outside and make sure the others are safe and I go in and deal with the chief"

Sky said with a loud voice,

"What do you mean by that, we came together, and we will go together '

Morsh looked at Sky while using fear,

Sky started shaking due to fear and said,

"We will... go out.... together "

Morsh smiled and said,

"Your will is strong but how much longer you it last"

Iris fell on her knees due to fear,

Sky quickly supported her to stand up and said,

"Ok we will get out, but after we collect the hobgoblin's parts "

Morsh said,

"What do you need from that thing "

Sky answered,

"We need his ears as proof and his skin is also good "

Morsh skinned and cuts the ears of the hobgoblin in the matter of seconds,

Iris and Sky were surprised to see Morsh cutting the hard skin of hobgoblin without a problem,

Sky said,

"We have struck gold in our party "

Morsh gave skin and ears to Sky and said,

"Get out of here now"

Sky said,

"You didn't get a drop of blood in your cloths while skinning that "

Morsh said,

"SO... "

Sky quieted down and walked back toward the entrance with Iris,

Iris turned back as she was leaving and was blushing,

'Why does he look handsome now '

Morsh saw Iris looking at him with the corner of his eye,

'Did she fell for Pete.... what a weirdo '

Morsh made his way toward the tunnel from where the hobgoblin arrived in the open area,

"This tunnel sure is wide, I think it is made for the hobgoblin "

Morsh summoned 10 dark knights and gave them swords covered in dark energy from his storage space,

He then ordered the dark knights,

"Go ahead and kill every creature you see "

The dark knights ran froward with their full speed,

You couldn't even see them because of the darkness in the cave,

They killed the goblins as soon as they saw one,

They reached an open area after a minute,

The open area was filled with hundreds of goblins and there was a hobgoblin shaman sitting on a rock chair in middle,

The dark knights started killing the goblins as soon as they saw them,

The shaman saw the goblins being killed and raised his staff on air and a large fireball was created,

The fireball lit the area up, the shaman then threw the fireball toward a dark knight,

The dark knight simply cuts the fireball with his sword and the dark energy absorbed the fireball,

The shaman was shooting fireballs continuously, but the dark knights were unscratched and were killing the goblins extremely fast,

The goblins didn't even get the chance to defend themselves due to the speed of the dark knights,

Soon only hobgoblin shaman was standing, surrounded by the dark knights,

The hobgoblin shaman said,

"We negotiate... no kill "

One of the dark knights rushed toward it and attacks with his sword,

The sword cuts down its head and its soul was absorbed by the dark energy in the sword,

Morsh reached there at that moment and saw the shaman being killed and ordered the dark knights,

"I want his skin, ears and that staff too "

Morsh looked around and saw burned spots on the ground,

"Hmm... that goblin only used fireball "

The dark knights had skinned the hobgoblin and also cut its ears off,

Morsh said,

"You are fast "

Morsh then absorbed the souls in the swords if the dark knights and called back the dark knights,

He then sheathed his sword and picked up the hobgoblin's staff in one hand and skin in other hand while his ears wrapped around the skin,

Outside the nest, it was dark because of the night,

Rock, Chris and the priestess were sitting waiting,

Rock saw a light coming toward them from the cave and said,

"Something is coming, get ready "

Chris manifested fireball on his hand while Rock took out his greatsword,

As the light came close, Chris saw that Sky and Iris was coming out of the cave and said,

"Sky and Iris are coming out, don't attack "

He then took back the fireball and Rock puts back his greatsword,

Sky and Iris walked out at that moment with the hobgoblin's skin and ears,

All three of them were surprised to see the skin,

Rock said,

"How did you kill that thing "

Chris punched Rock on his shoulder and said,

"That is not important, the important thing is where is Pete '

Rock also realized that Pete was not with them and said,

"Where is he "

Sky said,

"He killed this hobgoblin and went deep in the cave "

Rock said,

"What do you mean by he went deeper when he had already killed the hobgoblin "

Iris said,

"We couldn't stop him, he is too strong "

Rock said loudly,

"Why didn't you ordered him like you order us "

Sky grinned his teeth, tightened his fists and said,

"He is strong, and I don't think I can control him "

Morsh walked out of the nest at that moment an threw the skin and wooden staff on the side,

"What are you doing "

They all turned and saw Morsh and then skin and staff,

Chris quickly ran up to the staff and picked it up,

"Where did you get this "

Morsh said,

"I got that and the skin from a goblin "

Rock ran toward Morsh with his arms open , trying to hug him,

Morsh jump kicked him and he went flying and crashed into a tree,

Morsh turned over to the priestess and said,

"Go heal him "

The priestess quickly ran up to Rock and started healing him,

Sky said,

"Why did you kick him when he was trying to hug you "

Morsh said,

"Shut up... I don't want to talk "

Morsh then sat on log and said,

"Let's head back to the city... I had some unfinished work and carry the skins too"

Chris said,

"Can I keep the staff "

Morsh looked at the staff and said,

"Isn't that too big for you "

Chris nodded and said,

"It can be shortened "

Morsh said,

"Do whatever you want "

Rock was healed so he picked up both of the skins and Sky picked up the ears,

They then headed toward the city,

Sky and Iris was walking in front while Chris, Rock and the priestess were in the middle and Morsh was walking in the back,

Rock asked,

"How did you kill the hobgoblins? "

Morsh said,

"With my sword "

Rock started laughing and Chirs said,

"We need to report this to the guild, this is strange... how can there be two hobgoblins in one nest "

Sky said,

"We will report this as soon as we reach the guild"

Iris was trying to take sneak peek at Morsh but was not succeeding due to the rock blocking her view,

The priestess saw this and said,

"Iris why don't you get in the back as monsters usually attack from back "

Morsh was thinking,

' Why did the monsters suddenly increased, is this the doing of the bitch goddess '

Iris switched her position at that moment and was walking with Morsh,

Morsh looked at Iris and said,

"Why did you switch position "

Iris said,

"Because the monster usually attacks from the back "

Morsh thought,

'You all are lucky that I have plans that involves you, otherwise you would be dead by now '

Morsh just ignored her and kept walking,

They soon reached the city gate and entered the city,

Morsh said,

"You all go ahead, I have something to do "

The priestess said,

"Why don't you take Iris with you, she knows where we meet "

Morsh said,

"You can just tell me where to meet you "

Iris was disappointed when she heard this,

Sky said,

"Meet us at the guild in the morning "

Morsh nodded and walked toward the market,

The priestess whispered in Iris's ear,

"Don't worry I will make sure that he falls for you "

They then headed toward the guild,

Morsh entered an ally and changed his outfit and wore a cloth mask

He then went to the assassin guild and entered the dark room,

The person was sitting on the chair and said,

"Don't be impatient, these things take time "

Morsh said,

"Well, if this takes too long, I might have to come after you "

The person started laughing and said,

"Haha... what can you even do to us "

Morsh smiled and said,

"Do you think your 10 bodyguards can save you from me "

The person stopped laughing,

"How did you know that "

Morsh said,

"I can feel their presence, so do your job otherwise I will come after you "

The assassins hiding in the dark room surrounded Morsh with their dagger ready to stab him at any moment,

The person said,

"Why do you think I will let you go after this "

Morsh released some paralyzing poison, and the assassins were paralyzed,

He then walked up to the person and said,

"I will kill them, and you if they pointed their weapons at me next time "

Morsh then walked out of the room and took back the poison when he got out of the bar,

He then walked into an alley and changed his cloths and headed to the gambling house,

When he reached the area, he saw the street filled with beggars,

"Hmm... To think some other gang has taken control over this area in one night "

Morsh then turned around and walked back,

"I will pay them a visit in couple of days, until then let them collect some coins for me "

Morsh then got out of the area and went into bar,

He walked up to the bartender and said,

"I want to fight "

The bartender looked at Morsh and said,

"Are you sure, you don't look that strong "

Morsh smiled and said,

"Yes I am sure "

The bartender then pointed at a guard and said,

"Follow him and he will take you there "

Morsh nodded and walked up to the guard, the guard started walking and Morsh followed him,

The guard took Morsh into the basement of the bar,

Iside the basement there was a big area with large caged ring in the center and people were sitting on the side in chairs,

Most of them were wearing masks so Morsh also puts on his cloth mask,

The guard then took Morsh to a table where 3 men wearing black cloths and masks were sitting,

The guard then left and Morsh said to the 3 men,

"I want to fight, how much will I get when I win "

One of the men said,

"You will get the triple of whatever you deposit "

Morsh took out a pouch of gold coins from his pocket and gave it to the man,

"This is the deposit... now I want to bet too"

The man said,

"You can't bet when you are fighting "

Morsh nodded and said,

"When is the fight "

The man said,

"Which fight do you want to participate in, knockout or death battle "

Morsh said,

"Which pays more "

The man said,

"The death battle will give you four times the coins"

Morsh took out another pouch of gold coin and gave it to the man,

"I will fight the death match, how much will be my reward "

The man begins counting the coins,

Morsh released some dark energy and it entered the bodies of the three men,

The man said,

"You have deposited 100 gold coins so you will get 400, if you win "
