Chapter 25 - The quest to begin with 6

„sometimes you win some, sometimes you lose some"

As the pair of trainee adventurers went into the dark and deep forest.

The atmosphere around them started to feel darker too.

No monster in sight.

But definitely something was watching them.

Will they survive the quest.

Will they find what they are looking for.

And what will happen next?

Find out in the next episode of

(Don`t worry. I don`t do that.

But please tell me you read that in the narrator voice.

Anyways as I was saying…)

After they both cleaned up themselves

They tried to find out where the goblin scout came from.

There were very little marks on the ground.

Some broken sticks.

Claws on the trees.

Faint footprints on the grass.

And so they followed those random clues for over an hour.

With 1-2 breaks for.

"relieving natural byproducts"

But then.

~umm. What~

~the hell~

They looked at each other.

-drums? In the middle of a forest- Aries asked not really excpecting the answer.

- I was going to say banging on the trees but yea, yours make more sense – replied Damon.

-Well the old guy did mention they might have a village-

-shall we?-

They neared the sound.

And suspicions were almost correct.

They were in fact drums.

Just incredibly simple.

And they did sound terrible.

Especially when a random monster tried to bang on them with a branch.

But hey, its better than I can do.

-Well now we know . they were drums – Aries proudly claimed.

Damon starred at Aries . ~ever heard of sarcasm? ~

-Mhm. We can get back now. – Aries slowly got back not to alert the guards.

-Whoa whoa did you forget already. We need 2 goblin….. remains- Damon stopped him.

-I mean. I got one here – his pather raised the bag.

-Like im gonna let you leave with that alone – Damon tried to rip it out of his hands.

-Not now you **** moron –one didn`t let go.

Two guards ,

simple goblins with spears if you are wondering how they know they are guards,

looked at each other in questioning

pointed their weapons towards the sounds in the bushes

and came very close to them.

The guys were still struggling with the only goblin head they had.

~okey screw that ~ Aries let go and brought out his blade.

Damon lost his balance and tipped out of the bush.

Rolled down and ended up just under the two monsters.

-oh shit. Umm hi there , goblin misters. – He laid on the ground sweating extensively.

They looked at his bag.

Then at him, then back at each other.

And decided , not to wait, and stab him immediately.
