Why a Goblin?

Alright with the talk finally over with, and the Goblins all outside training I can finally take a small break to look into my very own status..I’m actually a little nervous..please bring up my status Velora!

[Understood.]

{Name - Rick}

{Age - 20}

{Race - Royal Goblin}

{Tier 2}

{Essence}

{Evo Points - 92/180}

{Health - 80/80}

{Strength - 62}

{Agility - 57}

{Intelligence - 53}

{Endurance - 59}

{Skills}

{Velora}

And there it is! Wait, why is my intelligence only 53! I feel like that is a slight to my genius! I’m clearly a Royal Goblin genius!

[Remember the only reference you have to intelligence are other Goblins. Fifty three could very well be incredibly high.]

Thats…that's true! Hahaha Velora I think you're right! I’m definitely the smartest Goblin around!

[Or it could also be incredibly low.]

You..sigh.. You sure know how to bring a Goblin up and throw him right back down to earth huh?

[Just giving you accurate and logical conclusions to help you on your journey.]

Yeah yeah, anyways..I see the status still classifies my race as a Royal Goblin instead of a Hobgoblin like Jaba, which should mean it is more than just a title and something like a actual birthright huh So the tribal tattoos I have on my left arm is probably some type of Royal Goblin racial trait I’m assuming.

Wait..doesn’t this make me a target for enemy forces? Something like ‘Kill the Goblin with tribal tattoos! He’s their Leader!’ …ahh I’m getting chills just thinking about it.

[That sounds plausible, would it be better to hide your tattoos then?]

That sounds like a good idea, but I can’t help but want to show them off! I’m a Royal Goblin for crying out loud, I should take pride in that! I just need to get strong enough so that I can show them off anywhere I go!

[I suppose that works as well. When you're done, you should probably head outside to observe the training.]

Hmm you're right I do need to go participate in a proper training session, maybe I can even introduce some new exercises.

[Finally.]

Yeah yeah, let's go see if they’re passing down everything we talked about earlier okay.

[I doubt the unevolved Goblins will understand all of it.]

Yeah, I don’t think they will either, but as long as we can introduce the information to them now, it’ll become a lot easier to them once they all evolve into high Goblins.

The thing that I want them to understand the most when it comes to the talk is the whole idea of consent.

I made it very clear to Jaba and the squad captains that anyone who forces themselves on another Goblin whether male or female will face some serious punishments.

[Then make sure to remind once you get out there.]

Yeah good point, got to make sure they understand.

Once I made it out of the cave, I quickly spotted Jaba and the squad captains all standing together in the center of a circle with all the unevolved Goblins standing around them to form that circle.

I guess they decided it’d be better to talk to them as an entire group instead of just each captain talking to their own squad.

I can even see Tars talking, albeit in small amounts but still he’s talking.

It didn’t take long for them to spot me as well though, the second Jaba saw me he yelled at everyone to line up and they all moved accordingly with both extreme speed and efficiency.

It’s like a little military squad lining up when a supervisor walks in, I don’t know where Jaba got the idea to train them to do these things, but I won’t say anything about it since he looks quite happy to be doing this.

Instead, I’ll just work on keeping a straight face because I really want to start smiling at the sight of all of them lining up in such a crisp and orderly fashion.

Anyway, let’s just remind them about the whole consent thing then maybe I can observe some training.

[And also participate in the training.]

Yes, that too…

“Alright everyone, I’m not sure how much information has already been passed down to you from Jaba the squad Leader, and Geedi, Dal, and Tars, the three squad captains.

But whatever it is they already spoke about and whatever else they need to finish, do your best to remember that information. It is all very important for the tribe to get stronger. So don’t fail to pay attention and even ask questions when you don’t understand something.

Also one of the most important things to remember is that no one is allowed to force someone else to have sex with them ever.

This is a very important rule to me.

Any Goblin caught forcing another Goblin to have sex with them will either be kicked out of the tribe or directly killed in front of the entire tribe.

There will be no second chances about this, so please do not do it.

Hopefully, everyone will follow that one.

Now that’s enough of that, the captains can finish passing down the information later today for now let me see how you guys train.”

“You all heard him! Everyone space out accordingly to your usual spots and begin training! Remain at a high intensity for the entire time and never slack!”

“Was that really necessary Jaba?”

“Yes it was. We train how we fight, so we can’t go soft during training, or everyone will die when it’s time to go deeper into the forests.”

“Yeah that’s right, well let’s see what this training is all about.”

Hmm, it’s definitely pretty high intensity but, they don’t seem to actually be doing anything. Just a couple of basic moves being repeated at a rapid and powerful pace.

But where are the push-ups? The sit-ups? Even some jogging? Jaba probably doesn’t know about such exercises.

“Everything looks good for the most part Jaba, but I think I’m going to make a few changes with our training schedule.”

“Which is?”

“Well, have you ever heard of a type of training called the push-up? Or even one particular method called the sit-up?”

“No, I have not."
