Inside An Ad**t Game As A Former Hero

EP.7 Well, a hero, do it one more time.

“My name is Samuel. Take good care of me.”

The giant in leather armor held out his hand. He grabbed his hand and shook it a few times. Seeing that she is holding a wooden shield, this guy must have been a avant-garde.

“From this side on, Gemina, Tom, and Marilyn.”

“This is Gemina. Please.”

A brunette woman with two daggers tucked into her waist.

“This is Tom. Take good care of me.”

A man with a lot of freckles with a big ax behind his back.

“Marlin.”

A chic looking woman with a quiver and bow behind her back.

These were the party members the receptionist spoke of.

“Cloud. I’m counting on you.”

“…half words?”

Marilyn mumbles with a dissatisfied expression on her face.

“What are you talking about too? If you also want to talk nonsense, speak nonsense. Because it’s more convenient.”

“Really though…”

“Hahaha, no. How can we speak to a B-class adventurer?”

Samuel covered Gemina’s mouth and smiled softly.

“yes? Then I’ll do it in half.”

But Samuel couldn’t stop him, so Marilyn let go. Samuel’s face turned white when he saw him.

“Hey, Marilyn, you…!”

“it’s okay. In my opinion, you are the most overrated. Would you rather leave today?”

“Yeah? Ah yes. Because the sooner you hurry, the better… If you have any difficulties…”

“no. Let’s go right away.”

“all right! Let’s go, guys.”

We went out the gate.

* * *

“Our village was torn apart. It was difficult to even eat three meals a day, even if I continued to work except for sleeping time. So the four of us made a promise when we were young. Let’s get out of town and succeed. Let’s succeed and come back to save the village.”

A day has passed since I left the city.

If there’s one thing I’ve realized during this time, it’s that a guy named Samuel talks a lot.

He keeps telling stories of the past that he is not even curious about, and even if he tries to cut them off, there is no time to end them.

This guy is too kind to me to just dismiss it as being noisy.

So I just listen with one ear and let it flow through the other.

“As for what happened then.”

“Samuel.”

“This guy Tom…”

“Samuel. Gemina is calling.”

Marilyn slapped Samuel in the back. Tight! If you see the sound, it looks like you hit it with quite a bit of force.

Weren’t you friends?

“Okay… If I hit Marilyn a little bit, where would it go?”

“Noisy.”

“Sheesh… Gemina? Why did you call me?”

“Shh!”

Gemina, who was walking in front, raised her index finger to her lips and pointed forward. She approached quietly and looked where she was pointing to see six goblins carrying a small boar.

“What should I do?”

“Mr. Cloud, what would you like to do?”

Samuel hands Gemina’s question over to me.

Gemina and Marilyn looked at him dissatisfied, but he didn’t budge, waiting for my answer.

“I have to follow you. If those dens are right where we’re looking, we’ll have to rob them.”

“if not? Was it because I struggled to get rid of it?”

“Marilyn, you’ve been…”

Said Marilyn in a slightly irritated voice. Samuel tried to rebuke Marilyn for something like that, and I shrugged.

“Or you should charge the guild for catching more later. Let’s stop arguing now and go after us. don’t make a sound Because it’s annoying if I get caught.”

Samuel, who was about to rebuke Marilyn, kept his mouth shut. Marilyn also tapped her tongue and turned her head. We followed the goblin slowly.

These guys didn’t make any fuss while chasing after what they were doing.

After chasing so safely, we found a place that looked like a goblin’s lair…

‘…what?’

As I watched the goblins enter, I couldn’t help but tilt my head.

Not to mention, the place they entered was a cave large enough to fit even a large bear.

“Why?”

“No, I thought that cave was too big for goblins to live in. Why did you settle down in such a place?”

Goblins are small like children and have weak powers. Their nails are a bit strong, but other than that, they are a race with nothing special.

A species that will not be strange even if it is culled from nature at any time.

Nevertheless, they persistently survived in the harsh ecosystem.

It was possible because they were clever and wicked.

They’re not natural hunters, but they know how to wait. If you set a trap and wait, I have no doubt that someday it will catch its prey.

They’re not natural fighters, but they know how to kill creatures. Pushing the numbers is the norm, surprise is their favorite.

It is a race that should never be neglected just because it looks weak.

The goblins in the world I was dragged into made and used burrows that only they could go in and out of, like ants.

Therefore, in order to clear the goblin den, the whole den had to be destroyed or smoke had to be poured into it to suffocate.

Or did he take risks and crawl in to fight? Of those who even crawled in, half of them came out injured. Because all kinds of strange traps were waiting.

But do these clever people live in a place where foreign enemies can attack so openly?

It was strange.

“Why did you set up your home? I guess I just caught it because it looks good to live. What could be a plausible reason for a goblin?”

Marilyn said gruntingly.

This time, Samuel doesn’t say anything different, either.

Judging by their reaction, they seem to know what kind of stupid creature the goblin is…

Bitter… So the goblins here are no different than the ones I used to live in, aren’t they?

How did you survive being stupid?

They should have been extinct by other monsters earlier.

maybe that?

The setting that the fertility you’ve only seen in manga is excellent?

If you get pregnant just once, you’ll have five or six babies, but what?

“Hey… I want you to make a decision now…”

Gemina came to the side and urged her.

I thought a little and said.

“Let’s go in.”

You can’t destroy such a large cave, and you can’t suffocate it with smoke, so you have no choice but to go in and bump into it.

* * *

The inside of the cave was so dark that you could not see without a torch, and it was full of moisture.

I went through the cave in the order of Gemina, Samuel, Marilyn, Tom, and Cloud.

From a young age, Gemina was the most agile and brightest of the four. That’s why she took her lead in this situation.

tuk tuk.

Marilyn taps Samuel on the shoulder. When he turned around, she spoke in a low voice that only Samuel could hear.

“What do you think?”

“what?”

“Why are you being so rude to that man?”

When she was young, Samuel was a village alley leader and a dependable older brother.

It was he who spit out a plan to revive the village by succeeding with the four of us. Marilyn had such a deep respect for him… It was only natural for her to feel offended by telling a man named Cloud to even have her gallbladder removed.

Samuel said as if it was all right with her sarcastic sarcasm.

“I would rather ask. What the hell do you believe in and be so harsh on B-class adventurers?”

“What?”

“Except for me, who is a D-class, all of them are E-class. But what do you believe in being so mean to a B-class? Do you know how much my heart trembled while I got here?”

“under…! What’s with that cowardly look? Where did the alley manager I knew go? Did you go to the city a year earlier and became a coward?”

“I came a year earlier, so I saw a lot and realized a lot, you idiot. How dangerous are high-ranking adventurers!”

If there is one thing Samuel desperately realized during the past year of adventurer life, it is that not all high-ranking adventurers are sane.

There are people who beat the bar clerk for offending them,

A person who secretly harasses a woman or a receptionist,

There are times when two drunks go out and only one returns.

The sword of the man who returned alone was dripping with blood.

All the talented and sane guys fall for the stable guards and knights, so it was natural if only these crazy guys were left in the Adventurer’s Guild.

In such a place, the title of a village alley leader in a rural area was useless at all.

If I said anything, they would only be ridiculed or beaten up for being an asshole.

So, all he could do was to lean over and over again until he could protect himself.

Under such circumstances, the younger adventurers who have just come to the city are tightening their necks in front of the B-class…

For Samuel, there was no choice but to panic.

“I’ll explain it properly later, so listen to me now. Don’t be fooled by what that person says. Don’t bother me.”

“there. Too noisy.”

“Oh, yes. sorry.”

Samuel bowed his head toward Cloud. Marilyn frowned, but as Samuel gripped her wrist tightly, he bit her lip and unraveled her expression.

So, the group continued to remain silent again.

By the time they felt they had entered the cave quite deep, the party encountered nine goblins.

– Awkward?

The goblins counted the number of Cloud’s party. They soon realized that they had more numbers and smiled badly.

The goblins drew out crude weapons such as clubs and rusted daggers.

– Profit! Cheeky!

Did you think that having a lot of numbers is advantageous?

The goblins rushed towards Cloud and the party.

“Where?”

Shuong. hooked.

An arrow fired by Marilyn hit the goblin’s ship in the lead. The goblin hit by the arrow fell down, but the other goblins didn’t stop and ran towards them.

Samuel and Gemina faced the goblins while Marilyn was carrying a new arrow.

– Chick wiggle!

The three goblins are excited and swing their clubs. However, there was a huge difference in size between the Goblin and Samuel. Samuel also had a shield, so he didn’t take any significant damage from the goblin’s club.

Rather, Samuel swung his sword and smashed a goblin’s shoulder.

Meanwhile, Gemina, who had only two daggers, was having a hard time. Because all five of them are running towards you.

Fortunately, Tom wasn’t late.

He swung his large ax crosswise. The goblins tried to block it with a club or a dagger, but the difference in weight was huge. The clubs and daggers were broken, and the bones of the goblins were also harpooned.

– Kick… Kick…?

In an instant, four of them suffered.

There is no more number advantage. The goblins quickly began to run away into the cave.

“Where! Do you think I’ll let you go?!”

Marilyn, who has a hasty personality, drew a sword from her waist and chased after the goblins. Gemina, Tom, and even Samuel ran after her.

The enthusiasm of victory fanned them.

“You’re going too deep.”

Of these, only Cloud remained calm. He slowly made his way into the cave.

* * *

Marilyn is a confident child. Since she was young, whatever she did, she was savvy and good at it.

So this time too.

It’s the first request I’ve received, but it’s doing well, isn’t it?

– Kick! Cheeky!!

Seeing the goblins scream and run away!

‘Anyway, Samuel oppa has become too soft.’

It’s not even an S-grade or an A-grade, just a B-grade, what’s so terrifying?

That’s a B grade, she can get it anytime she wants.

Look there too.

When fighting the goblins, that B-class human did nothing.

It is said that they are no different from the village idiots who can only give strength to their shoulders.

‘I have to show my brother properly this time.’

What a great person she herself is.

It was when I was chasing the goblins with such thoughts. Suddenly, she felt something strange on the sole of her foot. She lost her balance and fell to her floor.

“Ugh… what…”

What did you trip over? Uh, wait a minute, your legs can’t move?

Marilyn looked at her immovable legs.

The pointed spear blade protrudes through the back of the foot.

‘Huh…? Why is this here…?’

She used to ignore goblins as stupid creatures. Of course, she thought there would be no traps, so she stepped on the spear blades the goblins had placed on the floor.

And pain always comes after recognizing the wound.

“Aaaaaah!”

For the first time in my life, I felt the pain of tearing my flesh.

Marilyn could not stand the scream.

– Kihehehehehe.

The goblins, who had been running wildly before, giggled when they saw Marilyn’s appearance. And she slowly approached her.

“Turn it off. Oh, don’t come. Don’t come!”

Marilyn drew out a bow and tried to carry an arrow. But there is no way he could carry an arrow with his trembling hands.

The goblins are getting closer.

‘What should I do… What should I do…’

She was full of confidence until the chase, but now she was afraid of only five goblins.

‘Who, someone…”

“Marlin!”

Samuel, Tom and Gemina arrived at just the right time. Marilyn’s expression brightened.

“It’s okay… your feet…?!”

“I… I’m fine, that goblin! Kill the goblins first!”

Marilyn pointed at the goblins with a bloody finger. Samuel nodded his head and clenched his shield and sword strongly.

“Dare you, Marilyn…”

Samuel trudged towards the goblins.

The five goblins did not run away. He was just smiling like before.

At that, Gemina felt something strange.

“Oh, brother. Stop for a second…”

late.

Whoa!

Samuel was hit in the side by something heavy and rolled on the floor.

“”brother!””

“Samuel hyung!”

“I’m fine!”

Samuel grabbed his flaming side and barely got up. And he looked in the direction he was hit.

A goblin appeared from the dark space.

Although he was short, his body was much larger than that of ordinary goblins, and the club he was holding was thicker than that used by humans.

Samuel knew the identity of that goblin.

“Hob Goblin…!”

Hobgoblin, one of the mutated goblins.

Gnomes are known for their strength and stamina that surpass those of ordinary goblins.

Samuel held out his shield forward and took a stance.

It’s unreasonable for the younger siblings who started working as adventurers for the first time today. i have to He is determined to fight the hobgoblin with a grim determination…

“Behind you!”

“What?”

Samuel quickly turned back.

A large club was coming down towards his head, and he managed to block it with his shield. But rolling the floor unsightly was unavoidable.

“Ugh… two hop goblins… what is this…”

It’s usually hard to find even one.

Without luck, it wouldn’t be like this.

Since this is the case, Tom and Gemina were in charge of one, and in the meantime, I…

“Oh, oppa… I don’t think these two are the end…?”

Gemina’s trembling voice.

“What?”

Samuel immediately swung his torch and looked around. Red eyes are visible in the pitch black darkness. In that moment, the goblins came.

‘Damn… it’s impossible to play against this number. I had no choice but to carry Marilyn and run away…’

Samuel turned his back.

I couldn’t help but smile at the scenery in front of me.

Two new hop goblins appeared and blocked their path.

– hee hee hee hee hee

– hee hee hee hee

– Chihi chi hee hee hee hee hee hee hee!!!

Goblins laugh at stupid humans.

How can you not laugh at the pigs who have entered the slaughterhouse on their own?

How could the prey that they mistook for a hunter be so foolish?

The crescent-shaped red eyes that are clearly visible even in the dark, and the laughter of goblins echoing through the cave.

The four peasant adventurers trembled in fear.

They believed that one day they would grow into outstanding adventurers. So, I listened only to the stories of successful adventurers, and the stories of adventurers who were killed by monsters flowed in.

Because he thought it had nothing to do with him.

But death always comes suddenly.

Now it was your turn to become the protagonist of the pitiful story of four people who looked down on the goblins and were killed instead.

…if there wasn’t one more person here.

hooked.

The blade pierced the hobgoblin’s chest that was blocking the entrance.

-Kihee… Heh…?

A hobgoblin who laughed and wondered and died.

As Cloud drew his sword, the Hobgoblin slumped forward.

-talent..? hey hey!

The hobgoblin who was with him jumped and hit the club hard. Cloud turned his body slightly to his side to avoid it, then extended his sword forward.

As before, his sword pierced the Hobgoblin’s heart.

He pushed the hobgoblin away with his feet and drew his sword. He said as he swung his sword violently, splashing the blood from his sword.

“Look at this. Because he’s not stupid.”

Cloud moved without hesitation into the darkness full of red eyes.
