“As expected.” Isaac sighed. “I didn’t know the goblin village is about to face its impending doom. Who would have thought they are dumber than humans? Well, back then. Citizens were easy to deceive by the government, but it was only because they doesn’t have a choice. While here… I have nothing to say.”
Isaac looked at the little girl goblin with pity. He also looked at her big brother and later learned his name was Ink. He couldn’t help but feel sympathy for their future since even his big brother doesn’t have the power to change their faith.
“In addition, even if I wanted to protect them. I might only bring myself harm. After all, who would have thought the greatest nemesis of the goblin is my race? If it isn’t because of my cautious attitude, I might not be alive and flying right now.”
Isaac chuckled lightly and concluded that from now on, he would always be cautious wherever he went, especially now he was inside such a large dungeon. Even the hidden door is enough to be a lower-level dungeon in the game he played but in his place. It seems he didn’t even progress much.
“Aside from my race, the goblin, and the wild boar tusk, I wonder what other races were living inside the dungeon?” Isaac couldn’t help but wonder. “Well, I can only find out once we venture into the dungeon.”
“Anyway, now that I learned the goblin language, I can finally spy on the current situation of the goblin village.” Isaac thought. “However, I have to be careful. Although I formulated a map in my mind, I still have to mark the place I can hide and the place I have to avoid. Anyway, all I have to do is be careful.”
Isaac looked at the pair of brother and sister one last time before deciding to go out and venture into the goblin village. Currently, the two of them should be safe and could hold on for a week. The brother should have no plan to venture and scavenge valuable things outside since he had gathered enough food to survive in a few days.
Meanwhile, Draven was about to reach the entrance when he suddenly halted. For some strange reason, he could suddenly sense a familiar existence appearing. He pondered over it when he was suddenly interrupted by the system.
[You have learned the inherent skill, Blood Communication.]
‘Blood Communication?’
Isaac wondered before it suddenly dawned on him. To further understand what the skill was, he decided to ask the system about it.
[Inherent skill: Blood Communication.
Description: Back on Earth, from the host's memories, Mosquito lived in solitary. However, the system learned the host could communicate with his other race in a span of five hundred meters unless something blocked them from communicating with each other. However, the longer the distance, the harder to communicate.]
Isaac analyzed the description and was quite surprised. In addition, he realized the goblin village was about to face its misfortune. He couldn’t help but feel guilty, though, thinking he was the reason for their downfall.
He looked back at the pair of siblings, and the little girl had fallen asleep while his brother accompanied her by her side. He firmly decided to protect them and informed his other race about it once they reached his destination.
“I don’t know the personality of my race. Are they cold-blood-hearted? Do they act like how a monster would?” Isaac pondered. “I can only find my answers once I meet them personally. I really can’t communicate with them as though I’m calling them on a phone with a low internet signal.”
Isaac guarded the entrance and waited for the arrival of his kin. As more time passed, he tried to collect the information through the skill. He found out the skill should be passive and felt it was kind of annoying to differentiate the skill with many classes. Therefore, he decided to change them to active and passive later on.
Meanwhile, their connection was slowly turning distinct, and could sense they were having a purge. In addition, they were asking where Isaac was, as they wanted to thank him for leading them to a place where they could build their kingdom. Isaac coldly gives them their information, not trying to act casual and friendly to them at all.
They noted his response, but they were still massacring the goblins.
Isaac later learned the goblin’s blood was disgusting, and thus they decided to kill them by piercing their veins a lot. Bleeding them to the point of dying from blood loss. Such cruelty made Isaac speechless. In the end, he could only hope he could negotiate with them by not intending to kill the pair of goblins he was trying to protect.
Five minutes passed, and it only took that time to kill almost half of the goblins in a short amount of time. Isaac wondered how many of his kin entered the illusionary dungeon wall. He was about to receive the answer when he sensed a group of a mosquito flying in his direction.
He immediately communicated them through his skill.
“Here!”
“Phantom!”
Five of the Mosquito monster exclaimed as they saw him. Isaac wondered who were phantom and realized they were referring to him. He realized it should be the real name of the actual owner of the body.
‘Well, it’s not lame so I don’t mind.’
Isaac hovered and waited for them to come. As they were having their time to fly to him, he was formulating a plan to convince his race. They were cold-blood hearted, but they should give him some face since he contributed a lot by giving them a place to live from now on.
“As expected of Phantom,” said the mosquito in the middle of the group. “You have actually discovered a hidden place for us to build our permanent kingdom. We thought you had died since we suddenly couldn’t contact or sense you. Who would have thought that when we suddenly sensed you, you suddenly disappeared again? After we reported the matter to the king, he found out you should have discovered a hidden place!”
“That’s right! You are so amazing, Phantom!”
The other four mosquitoes supported his bootlicking. While Isaac was confused, he was suddenly praised for something he accidentally achieved. However, he didn’t mind and was actually pleased by their praises.
Hi guys! I feel like this story didn't have an element of face slapping, and thus I decided to add such a favorit element in mega novel. Thank you and please support the book if you loved it! Or if not, please leave your thoughts in the comment!
“Thank you,” replied Isaac coldly.After he learned his name, Phantom, he acted like how the name described. His personality should be cold and should be narcissistic. However, he didn’t know how to act like the latter because he never considered himself the main character. He was always humble and prideful but not overly arrogant. Therefore, he decide to act naturally as he could.“Phantom, I heard your flying skill is faster than any other flying monster. In addition, even the king greatly always praises you because of your astonishing skill to act as a spy and scout to other races without being discovered once. He was disheartened when he heard about your sudden disappearance, but when he discovered you are still alive and thought should discover a hidden place.He immediately gathered five hundred of us to follow you and accompany you in conquest. After that, he wanted to report you to him,” said the mosquito in the middle of the group.He then continued. “However, we can’t match
“I will take my leave now. However.” Isaac’s eyes turned cold, causing the five mosquitoes to tremble in fear. “You will know what will happen if something happens to the sibling goblin. I’m not kidding. Don’t test me.”“Y-Yes,” replied the leader while nodding his head. “Rest assured, Phantom. With five of us guarding them, our kin can't harm them.”The other four mosquitoes immediately supported their leader while trying their best to flap their wings, wanting to resist the pressure Phantom brought to them. Isaac felt assured by their reactions and quickly smiled at them, causing the tense atmosphere alleviated.Isaac was about to ask where the king was currently because he knew nothing about where the previous Phantom resided when he sensed his kin asking for help. Immediately, he lost connection to a single mosquito up to five mosquitoes each second, signifying their death. Isaac couldn’t help but tense up. What could have caused the sudden death of his kin? Does the goblin villag
Of course, once they exclaimed Phantom’s name, Isaac immediately acted like how the previous body would. He swept his head to his kin, nodding while pretending he was elated from the countless praises. Most mosquitoes who knew Phantom fired up once he was at the center of attention continued their exaggerated praises, and their loud voice escalated each second.The goblin wizard stopped the continuous chant of fireball, even though he could have taken the chance because the mosquitoes face their back to him. How could he have the gall to continue when he sensed an ominous, terrifying presence?His eyes locked intently on Phantom's presence and realized the mosquitoes surrounded Phantom and acted happily delighted because of his appearance. He couldn’t understand what they were shouting, but the goblin wizard wasn’t dumb to realize the real battle was about to start.He immediately consumed a single mana potion and secured the remaining in his waist, making sure there would be no distr
The mosquito armies visioned the five materializing pentagon-shaped hovering, covering the body of the goblin wizard. However, their thirst for killing the goblin wizard didn’t halt their attack. Some were sensible enough to follow their screaming instinct, but it was only a pitiful amount of them. Isaac took the chance to blend in with the group of mosquitoes, who halted their attack, while attentively looking at the five materializing fire shields defending the goblin wizard. Relying on his vision, he knew the intensity of the heat coming from the fire shield was getting higher which was about to surpass the fireball heat! As expected, Isaac sensed the threat coming from the fire shield, and there were five of them at that! “No, it should be the only powerful skill that the goblin wizard has in his arsenal.” Isaac rejoiced. “The blue liquid he had drank, which amounted to almost ten, must be the mana potion. Seeing he immediately gulped them all means he was going all out!” Isaac
Time seemed to stop again, but it only worked at Isaac. He felt the wind, but as though he became a wind. The air resistance that became a barrier because of his speed seemed to disappear, causing him not to feel the roughness of the wind on his face anymore. In addition, he felt he could borrow the wind to penetrate the fire shield. If it would really be achieved, he could use the wind to block the heat entering his body! However, he was proved wrong when he finally entered the fire shield. “Hot!” Isaac felt his flesh was scorching, and the tremendous pain was traumatizing. Halfway through his penetration, he grew accustomed to the pain and suddenly heard the system’s announcement. [You have acquired the Heat Resistant.] He ignored it afterward, even though he was questioning if it was a skill. It would be good for him to remodel the system after he assassinated the goblin wizard, who was now staring at him in horror. The goblin wizard knew the mosquito monster had survived from
Three hours later, after looking at every nook and crook, Isaac finally found the tome. It was hidden in an isolated hut, which stood at the northern part of the goblin village. When Isaac found it, he immediately tried to open it but couldn’t. Aside from thinking of using his needle mouth to open it, there was no option as his limb was small and thin. It doesn’t have enough power at all! Therefore, he decided to ask the system about it. “System, how can I learn the tome’s content.” [Simple, the host only needed to touch the tome, and the system will absorb the contents through contact.] Isaac’s eyes lit up as he discovered more about his skill, Digestion. However, to validate his assumption, he decided to ask the system. “Will you use the skill, digest? That unique skill shouldn’t be that omnipotent, right?” [As for the host’s first question, the host is wrong. As for the second question, the host is correct. The prerequisite for the skill to be activated is needed to store the
Three hours earlier, after the fifty remaining mosquitoes gathered around the corpse of the goblin wizard. They discussed and considered what to report to the King. As much as they wanted to leave the job to the Phantom, the Phantom's assassination of the goblin wizard, which they feared the most, caused them to dismiss the thought. Therefore, they finally decided there would be only five of them to report to the King in case they encountered the other races along the way. They could only pray at least one of them to safely reach the destination and report an important matter to the King. Under the leadership of the pervert mosquito, they journeyed to travel to their old kingdom. Meanwhile, the remaining mosquito decided to split themselves and formulate a map for the goblin village. They were exhilarated and enthusiastic to get their job done as they thought the map would greatly please the King. They dispersed and only two remained to guard the goblin wizard's corpse. Two hours
Isaac was about to return to the battlefield when he found out about the sudden appearance of many mosquito monsters, causing his blood communication to overwhelm him. Thankfully, only a meager amount of mosquito monsters tried to communicate with him.Of course, among them was the call from the king.Although Isaac sensed the overwhelming call from the king as though he was being summoned by a powerful figure, it only happened once. Thus, Isaac didn’t continue to give time to ponder over it.After all, the sudden appearance of an estimated five thousand mosquitoes surprised him.“What happened?” Isaac asked himself. “Three hours have passed since I looked for the tome. It should be sufficient to report to the king they were talking about, and the five thousand mosquitoes must be the population of the mosquito kingdom.”Isaac landed on the ground and continued to think.“Hundreds of mosquito is flying in my direction, and I only have five seconds to think before they can point out my
