Let’s Hunt Goblins

Shia and the others finished their bath and then retired to their rooms for the night .

Luchila and Lord Gerberga also went to their room .

And so I asked Goran,

“Have you received any information relating to the vampire investigation?”
“No, nothing important…”

“I see . I guess it’s still too early . ”

It was practically starting from today .

They would not discover much in so short a time .

“What about the Rank party that was sent to the place with the head of the dark god?”

“They have sent in a few reports…but nothing noteworthy has come yet . ”

“I see . ”

I had already searched the place . It might not be easy to find anything else .

After talking with Goran, I took a bath with Grulf and then we went to bed .

Grulf liked taking baths in spite of being a wolf . It was a very good thing .

When I woke up the next morning, Goran, Serulis, Shia and Nia were already gone .

They all had work to do .

Luchila was reading a magic book and studying .

It was necessary to study in order to grow as a sorcerer .

“Milka . I’ll be leaving the house again today . ”

“Will you be home for lunch?”

“I think I will eat outside . But I should be back before dinner . ”

“Understood . ”

And so I decided to go to the Adventurers Guild with Grulf .

Grulf wagged his tail and followed me .

“You haven’t been able to run in awhile, have you?”

“Grr?”

“I’ll try to find a quest that will take us outside of the city . ”

“Groof!”

Grulf was large, but still young . He needed a lot of exercise .

I wanted to let him run to his heart’s content outside of the city .

“But don’t exhaust yourself either . ”

“Groof!”

Grulf wagged his tail happily .

We entered the Adventurers Guild and looked at the quest board .

“Ah, goblin hunting . And it’s close by . ”

“Grr?”

Grulf sat with a serious expression .

“Goblin hunting is not the most interesting, but it can be bad if no one else does it . ”

And since it was close by, we could be home by dinner .

I took the request and headed to the counter .

“Ah, Mister Locke . ”

Just then, Shia, Nia and Serulis came out from the back .

“Did you get registered, Nia?”

“Yes, I did . ”

You could register alone if you were over fifteen, but not if you were eight .

Of course, she needed a guardian . That made the process a little more complicated .

But now that it was all finished, Nia looked a little nervous .

Serulis patted her gently on the head .

Shia looked at the paper I was holding in my hand .

“Mister Locke, which quest are you accepting?”

“Goblin hunting . Why don’t you all come with us?”

The guild could be very annoying if you tried to do a quest alone .

But it couldn’t be helped, since I was an F-Ranker .

“Oh, are you sure?”

“Of course . ”

“Then we would be glad to!”

“Thank you, Mister Locke . ”

“Thank you!”

Shia, Serulis and Nia bowed .

“No, thank you . ”

“Groof . ”

As we were now a party of four, I was able to accept the quest smoothly .

The four of us plus one wolf left the city and headed for the place that the goblins were supposed to appear .

A merchant who had been traveling near the main road had been attacked by them .

The merchant had managed to escape and come to the guild for help .

Goblin hunting near the main roads was the responsibility of the state, and so the quests did not pay much .

“Groof-grroooof!”

Grulf was so happy to be outside, that he started to run excitedly .

“Grulf, calm down or you’ll get tired . ”

“Groof-groof!”

We weren’t far from where the goblins usually appeared . We would arrive before midday .

Still, that was enough time for him to get exhausted .

While Grulf was full of excitement, Nia looked very nervous .

Perhaps she didn’t realize it, but she was constantly touching the sheath of her sword .

“How long have you had combat training, Nia?”

“Uh, half a day everyday . I train in tournament style matches . ”

“From what age?”
“As far back as I can remember…”

Shia said with a laugh,

“We start at the age of three in my tribe . ”

“From three . So that means Nia has trained for five years . ”

“Yes . ”

“Well, while you shouldn’t let your guard down, you don’t have to be so nervous . ”

“Yes, I will do my best!”

She was putting too much pressure on herself already . However, all Adventurers were like that in the beginning .

As we walked, Shia would occasionally stop .

Then she would take out a map and have Nia find our current location .

She was teaching her the very basics . That was a good thing .

“Nia . Where are we now on this map?”

“Here . ”

“Why do you think that?”

She wanted to know honestly what her sister knew and what she didn’t .

Shia was a good teacher .

When we got close to the place where the goblins would appear, Shia started to teach her about scouting .

She would look at the footprints and make guesses about their number and type .

Serulis and Nia listened as they watched from behind .

Grulf was also behind her, and his tongue was sticking out as he breathed heavily .

“Grulf, are you tired already?”

“Grrr . ”

“Grulf . Drink some water . ”

I took out some water from my magic bag and put it in a bowl in front of Grulf .

He drank it happily as I patted him on the back .

“Grulf . You never know what might happen on an adventure . So you have to be careful not to waste all of your energy . ”

“Groof . ”

Perhaps it was because he had not gotten enough exercise recently .

I would have to make sure from now on that he had long walks every day .
