Gulp!
I swallowed my saliva as the situation looks completely on his side...
Maybe I should have come here when I became stronger or some other days, looking at his smile make my body shudder...
Will I really die here? Before returning back to earth...
"Kekeke, Scared? " the globin asked me, maybe he noticed I am scared because my body is subconsciously shaking in fear...
"Wh..who is scared of you," I said with a little courage,
"Hooo...human that knows my Tongue How rare and how interesting," the goblin said looking at me with interest and confusion.
[ Tongue= Language ]
Huh? His tongue, I thought he was speaking in human language from the start... Is it because of the Ring of wisdom...
I knew it works like this but it was the first time in effect so, I didn't know it.
However, it's not time to worry about that...
Ah! I moved back a little as it seems the goblin shaman is finally going to make his move...
.....
The Goblin moved forward a little bit and began to laugh "hahaha hahaha "
"Human let me tell you a story. would you like to listen? " the goblin asked...
I am not stupid to reject it, listening to his story might help me get some time to think... So I accepted to listen to his story...
"Su...sure"
"Hehe....human you really are interesting, then listen," the goblin said and began to tell his story.
There was a goblin village in a Dark forest, they lived happily and hunt wild beasts to eat. To them, they didn't know other intelligent creatures existed or anything.
We goblins simply lived our lives as we wanted in peace, however when I was young... I was playing with a few of my goblin friends a little far away from the village.
Suddenly, a bunch of other species calling themself human appeared and killed all of my friends, the young me who was powerless, hopeless, and weak could only run from them as I could sense danger.
My survival instinct told me not to care about my friend and just run, after running far away I thought they won't chase me now so, I returned to my village to tell the goblin chief about it.
However, when I returned to the village everyone was slaughtered, My mom, my dad, my little sister everyone was killed by them.
Suddenly, I heard a noise saying "Quest was very easy, we will get rich "
Noticing someone coming, I hid in the bushes, listening to them talking about Quests, adventure, money, etc...
However, young me who was just a child left a few trails while hiding and those humans who called themselves adventures noticed me.
That time I felt a deep fear, I didn't understand why they wanted to kill us, we did nothing wrong.
But that time when I thought I was going to die, A Lich appeared and killed all those humans saving me.
Young me who have lost everything decided to follow the Lich who saved me.
Maybe I am from the monster race I didn't feel like crying over dead ones or anything, I just moved forward.
The Lich who now adopted me taught me magic and gave me various books to read, it seems even for a lower beast I had developed great intelligence. I could memorize everything and learn at a very fast speed.
I had completely learned basic magic, rune formation, and barrier formation to a high level.
....
However, happiness doesn't last long, once again we who were living in peace were attacked by humans.
This time they were strong human adventures of S class, who have come to kill Lich.
Lich knew we couldn't win against the party of six S class adventure so, he told me to run and hide, he will end this fast...
I believed his words and went to hide thinking a strong lich will kill them in one shot just like in past.
Days passed by, but Lich still didn't come back I thought he must have forgotten me or he couldn't find me, so I went to Lich's hideout.
But there was only his body with his head missing, it seems The Lich who I thought was stronger was killed by those humans.
On that very faithful day due to my high intelligence, I was awakened as a "Goblin shaman ".
With strong hatred towards humans who killed us just for Fame and money, I decided to do the same thing.
"So...Human do you think I am wrong? " after talking about his story he asked me if he was wrong?
"No," I said, I don't think he is wrong neither I think he is right.
"Wise...human, You really are something else," he said looking at me...
"All the humans I met till today were arrogant and thought too highly of themselves, human call us monsters but it's them who are real monsters didn't you think? " he said looking at me.
I don't know what he was thinking when he told me all those things but I already found out why my mana was blocked.
It seems in this cave, every stone here and there is engraved with Runes which suppress mana, and I can't destroy it cause there are too many of them.
When he said, he grew intelligent he wasn't wrong, in this territory humans who can't use mana while he has such an amount of mana can easily overpower them.
"You know, a human who talks about peace are the one who starts a war and attacks others while we monsters who are called an enemy of mankind did nothing wrong at all " he began to talk further.
