Life In Another World 33 Demogoblin

Staring at the four Goblins, who were stunned in fright, nodded in Kiro as she ran toward his direction with all of her might.

*??????!*

As soon as she left the place, the four of the Goblin's heads exploded.

She glanced behind her back and saw the four headless corpses of Goblins.

Alina halted her movement after seeing the scene behind her back. She couldn't believe that with a short amount of time, Kiro advanced his strength to this degree.

"What are you doing! Hurry, that Goblin Commander isn't dead yet." Kiro urged her to escape the place. He knew the attack he did wasn't enough to finish off a high-level Goblin like the Goblin's Commander.

"Gaaaoor!"

Suddenly, an angry howl of the Goblin Commander reverberated throughout the place.

"Tsk!" Kiro clicked his tongue in frustration, "Master! Go and grab that woman now, you have to kill the Goblin Shaman first, or else you can't escape from their gasp!" Fixie voiced out her worry. She knew no matter what happened, Kiro wouldn't abandon Alina, so she tried to think of a plan for them to survive this ordeal.

"Mm, got it," Kiro muttered as he dashed toward Alina's direction.

"Wa—what are you doing!" Alina shouted in surprise. The moment Kiro got near at Alina, he lifted her body with a princess carry. "Please, bear with it at the moment," Kiro said whilst he kicked the muddy ground hard as he ran toward the southeast side of the plainlan forest.

"Mm, this human boy is indeed sharp. After he detected my mana fluctuation, he decided to abandon Gerogoblin." The Goblin Shaman said.

"Borogoblin, you should know what to do next, that human boy is about to come here." The Goblin said, as it directly looked at the two-meter tall green figure, who was hiding beneath the darkness.

"Don't worry, Demogoblin, this time around I won't let that stinky human brat live!" Borogoblin said as both of his eyes flashed with hatred.

"Mm, that's good, remember if you failed to deliver this human boy to our King, the first one who will die is not me, but you," Demogoblin responded, in a chilly tone.

Upon hearing their King, Borogoblin flinched for a moment, before recovering his composure.

"You don't have to remind me, I know what to do."

Amidst their chatter, Kiro who was carrying Alina detected the presence of the two Goblins.

"Master, Be careful. It seems like this Goblin Shaman is trickier than Fixie thought would be." Fixie advised Kiro as she added. "There's something unusual from this Goblin Shaman, it would be better if Master activated his appraisal skill."

Hearing Fixie's opinion, Kiro nodded in silence. "[Appraisal!]"

"... What does that 'Demonification' mean." Kiro muttered. However, before he could voice out his question. Alina who was buried beneath his chest bit his shoulder.

"Muu... Let go of Alina!" She interjected, while her face flushed red in shame.

Only then did Kiro realize that he was still holding Alina within his arms. "Hehehe, sorry about that, but Alina, do you enjoy biting my shoulder? I can lend it anytime once we survive in this place." Kiro jested before staring directly at her eyes.

"Alina, listen carefully. You have to hide, no matter what happens, don't come out." Kiro declared as he gently put her on the ground.

Alina, who was listening to him doubtfully. Once she saw Kiro's serious expression, she suddenly came to the understanding that Kiro wanted to face the enemy alone.

"No! I can fight too!" Alina insisted upon knowing Kiro wanted to carry all the burdens.

This time Kiro's both eyes became chilly. "No, you cannot. You would only be a dead weight if you tag along."

Kiro chided, in the normal times, he wouldn't say such a harsh word to the person who came running inside the pit of fire, just to aid him. But he doesn't have any time to persuade Alina.

Upon hearing Kiro's cold remark, Alina sniffled as she tried to voice out. "... I—I... I-" Eventually Alina bit her lower lips, as both of her eyes moistened.

Alina wanted to say that she could help Kiro. However, after hearing the word dead weight, after witnessing Kiro's real prowess. Alina realized that if she did not come, Kiro could escape this place with ease.

Kiro moved forward while his eyes flickered with intense resolve, as Kiro summoned his longbow and two runic arrows.

Watching Kiro's disappearing back, Alina could no longer hold back her tears bursting forth like water from a dam, spilling down on her face.

Kiro halted his movement momentarily. With his keen sense, Alina's sobbing couldn't escape from his sharp ears. Kiro clenched his fist fiercely to the point of bleeding. Still, he continued moving forward.

While walking toward the two Goblins, Kiro asked a question. "Fixie what is wrong with that Goblin Shaman? Why is that his state of Demonification?"

"Master, this is bad... If Fixie guessed it correctly, the one who manipulating this Goblin settlement in the shadow is a Demon!" Fixie exclaimed her astonishment before adding.

"With Master's current capability, forget about the Goblin King, with the presence of a Demon alone is enough..." Fixie stopped her track.

After hearing her words, Kiro wasn't stupid enough not to understand what she meant.

"Don���t worry, It's not the demon I would be facing but the Goblins," Kiro claimed but knowing there was even higher existence than the Goblin King inside this forest, he couldn't help to picture how he would survive in this place.

Ultimately, Kiro reached his designated target.

"Yo, did I make you wait?" Kiro smirked as he stared directly at the Goblin Shaman.

However, to his surprise, the Goblin Shaman spoke. "Greetings, young human. I am called Demogoblin." The Goblin Shaman quipped at him, before adding.

"Sadly, I can't face you just yet, there is someone who is eagerly wanted to fight with you." As Demogoblin said those words, Borogoblin who was watching the scene in the darkness showed himself.

Kiro who was staring at the Goblin Shaman in the astonishment was awakened after noticing a familiar figure.

"Goooaaar!" Borogoblin howled furiously.

Kiro was alarmed after when he noticed the Goblin Commander charged toward him madly.

"... Fixie, how the heck that Goblin Shaman spoke?" Kiro asked in bewilderment as he summoned ten arrows inside his spatial tool.

"Master, that Goblin Shaman wasn't an ordinary one, it received some blessing from a Demon, so it is no wonder he could communicate with Master." Fixie explained.

After hearing Fixie's reasoning, Kiro directed his attention to the approaching Goblin Commander.
