Rei looked for Gaburu, but couldn't find him anywhere.
At that time the orc chief's voice once again echoed in his ears.
"Since your leader, Rei is back, you all should start with preparations! Start disguising yourselves!"
Listening to what the orc chief said the goblins started their disguising process.
-"Disguising? This is gonna be interesting…"-
-"What are you people using to disguise yourselves?"-
-"Ninja outfit, or black cloaks…?"-
-"I am very excited! I can't wait to see it."- Lucas said.
Rei suddenly seemed startled, as if he had completely forgotten the existence of the voice.
'You will be surprised to see how good our disguise is. They are so good that no one will be able to spot any differences. They wouldn't even be able to tell if we are goblins…', listening to what Rei said Lucas started to anticipate even more.
Rei grabbed some leaves and then forcefully stuck them in his hair. He then took some colours and made a design around his eyes and then finally wore a dress made up of weird leaves.
-"What's next?"- Lucas asked to which Rei's brows furrowed.
'Next? What next?'
-"Wait? Don't tell me…"-
'Yeah, I won't tell you.'
-"..."-
"..."
'By the way, could you remind me once again about what I shouldn't be telling you?', Rei asked.
-"This mofu!"- Lucas screamed.
At that time the other goblins too had worn the disguise and seemed to be ready.
-"Have you all gone crazy!?"-
'Of course not… But why are you asking such a question?', Rei asked to which Lucas said, - "To disguise yourself you should use something that blends in well with Nature. For example dark black or dark green."-
When Lucas said this, Rei started to check his arms and legs.
'Then what do you think I am? A pink goblin!?', Rei asked, as if Lucas had said something racially too obvious.
At that time the heavy voice of the orc chief once again echoed in all the goblins' ears.
"Everyone… Collect the small glass bottles from the bodyguards. You all will be given a very precious dagger and a small glass bottle. Make sure to poison the food of the enemy. My brother is trying to steal my post, our post, but we will kill him and his entire army before that even happens!"
"The ones who will complete the mission and return will be rewarded!"
Listening to the orc chef's words all the other goblins except Rei became excited, after all, Rei knew what probably would happen to them.
-"Well, don't worry much about it. The chances that your whole body gets transported to the VR world are much higher so you might survive."-
Actually, nothing happened to Rei's body as Gaburu had run away. But Lucas was not 100% sure that his body was actually getting transported.
Regardless, he believed in the possibility of it happening after all, not even a scratch on Rei's body was found after returning.
'Sigh, you speak a lot of weird words but oddly they give me confidence,' Rei said as he once again looked around. This time he spotted someone familiar. Someone who was trying to kill him a few minutes ago.
Rei gritted his teeth as he looked at Gaburu, who was quickly disguising himself in the leaves just like the rest.
At that time Rei clenched his fist as he tried to suppress his anger.
-"For a goblin you are smart. The creatures named goblins that I am familiar with were completely brainless and would always follow their instincts, but you are different at least for a goblin."- Lucas said but listening to the words 'At least for a goblin' he couldn't control his anger anymore, after all, he knew that Lucas was speaking sarcastically and was trying to pull his leg. He ended up shouting!
"Shut the fuck up!", The others suddenly looked at him with surprised expressions. After all, anyone would be startled to hear a sudden scream. At that time Gaburu too noticed Rei due to the scream, and as soon as he did he quickly blended in with the other goblins.
-"Thanks for proving me wrong."- Lucas quickly changed his words due to which veins popped up in Rei's forehead but before he could do anything else the orc chief ordered them to leave for their mission.
They all started to walk out of the cave. Rei then looked at the goblins and started to divide them into different groups. Since he was in charge of this mission, he had to make sure that everything went smoothly, and that they completed the mission without fail.
Rei at that time finished making groups. He spotted Gaburu but didn't walk toward him to demand an explanation.
After finally organizing everything, the goblins started to run toward the western part of the jungle. The jungle was divided into four parts.
The Western part.
The Eastern part.
The Southern part.
The Northern part.
The forest was divided with the help of two swampy streams that intersected with each other forming a cross.
As mentioned earlier, Rei's Master Rout, was the orc chief of the eastern part of the jungle, while his brother was the chief of the western part. Both the brothers had gotten into a fight that could destroy the unity of the orcs. That was the reason the Orc Lord settled up an official battle between these two brothers, but Rei's master opened to kill his brother and the whole army of the western part. Rei too was shocked, since orcs weren't known to be cunning and in fact, were very honest and respected strength.
Especially Rout, who only had muscles, made such a cunning plan – this only baffled Rei.
"Alright guys, let's start the mission!", Rei raised his voice, motivating all the goblins.
They too raised their voices and followed Rei's lead.
Their destination was already set – the Western Part of the Forest that was ruled by yet another Orc Chief!
And their mission was simple – Poisoning the Orc Chief's and his army's food and water.
