Goblin Slayer

Level: Five

Ability: Goblin Slayer (When the opponent is a goblin, Goblin Slayer's chance of hitting the enemy's vital points increases by 80%.)

Blood Feud (When the opponent is a Goblin, Goblin Slayer will burst out with combat power beyond the limit as the degree of his own injury increases. The maximum temporary increase is one level.)

Goblin Expert (Goblin Slayer is very familiar with the goblin language, the differences between goblin tribes, and goblin traps. He is an expert in dealing with goblins, and no one knows more about killing goblins than him.)

Throwing Mastery (After long-term training, Goblin Slayer has learned how to attack enemies at a long distance. If the enemy is a goblin, the hit rate of throwing weapons increases by 70%.)

Proficiency in human language (Although he is a shadow beast, Goblin Slayer is born with the ability to communicate in human language.)

After looking at Goblin Slayer's data, Shuichi thought it was okay, but Boko Langqi and Hocas fell into deep thought at the same time.

Five characteristic entries... What a powerful golden-level shadow beast!

Moreover, he can attack goblins with high precision and his every strike is a critical hit. There is no one better suited to clearing out goblins than him.

Although the fifth trait, human language proficiency, may seem redundant, this is not the case.

Ordinary shadow beasts have to reach the Dark Gold level to learn human language. If they are not at the Dark Gold level, most shadow beasts cannot speak at all.

Goblin Slayer was an assistant created by Shuichi specifically to clean up goblins. Fundamentally, Shuichi had no intention of enslaving him.

So after Goblin Slayer was created, he was released immediately.

The black mist condensed and transformed into a human warrior wearing a badly worn helmet and obviously cheap armor, who appeared in front of Shuichi.

The human warrior was about 175 meters tall and had a strong build, like a city wall.

He stood quietly in front of Xiuyi and others without saying a word.

"Hello, nice to meet you, Goblin Slayer."

Shuichi took the initiative to greet the other party.

But Goblin Slayer remained silent.

"I have a big order here, it's related to goblins."

"Where are they? How many are there?" As soon as Goblin Slayer heard the information about the goblins, he immediately stepped forward and asked, "Tell me!"

“(`O′) Hey! Come on, stop right there! Don’t get too close to your master without permission!!” Phoenix Fire, which had been hovering on Shuichi’s left shoulder, felt that Shuichi was offended, so it quickly flew to the Goblin Slayer and scratched his helmet with its claws as a warning.

Goblin Slayer waved his hand to drive away the Phoenix Fire, but the little bird was too agile and dodged it easily.

“Phoenix Fire!” Xiuyi felt that Phoenix Fire was overprotecting him, so he quickly summoned Phoenix Fire to fly back to his shoulder, and then said to Goblin Slayer with a little apology: “I’m sorry, Phoenix Fire means no harm. I know you want to know more about the goblins as soon as possible, but this is really not a good place to talk. Let’s change seats.”

Goblin Slayer looked directly into Shuichi's eyes for a while.

The air is a little heavy.

A dog that doesn't bark usually opens its mouth either to eat or to bite people.

Goblin Slayer is obviously the action type who doesn't like BB.

Not to mention that Phoenix Fire was on high alert, even Hocas and Bokolangqi were thinking about whether to call out their shadow beasts.

However, after Goblin Slayer stared at Xiuyi for about ten seconds, he actually nodded and uttered one word: "Okay."

It's great that there was no fight...

Why does everyone have the illusion that Goblin Slayer will attack Shuichi at any time?

The group left the small dark room at the Golden Pool and came to a reception room nearby.

A maid swiftly pushed a dining cart into the reception room, and after everyone ordered their drinks and snacks, she left respectfully.

Although it was night, the matter to be discussed next was indeed important, and everyone consciously chose drinks such as juice or coffee instead of alcohol.

Goblin Slayer simply ordered a glass of water and placed it in front of him.

He sat quietly on the sofa opposite Shuichi, his eyes never leaving Shuichi.

Phoenix Fire stared at Goblin Slayer with great displeasure, with an emotion called impatience written all over its bird face.

It flapped its wings from time to time, and the red hair on its head kept shaking. These subconscious behaviors all showed that Phoenix Fire was very dissatisfied with Goblin Slayer.

Hocas and Bocolanci have been acting very transparent since Goblin Slayer appeared, and the two of them have been communicating silently with their eye contact.

Bocolangqi even wanted to stick his eyeballs on Goblin Slayer.

There is no other reason, it’s just that this newly appeared shadow beast is too spiritual.

Let’s not talk about the case of Phoenix Fire for now. They saw Goblin Slayer being created with their own eyes.

The settings from scratch were all done in one go, without even making a rough draft.

Logically speaking, a gold-level shadow beast should not be so intelligent.

In the end, can we only blame it on [human language proficiency]?

Or did Shuichi fill him in with too much information when he created Goblin Slayer?

Or maybe both?

The hidden data of the shadow beast, such as its degree of completion, intelligence, and spirituality, are directly related to the information filled in during its creation.

Assuming that the authors' levels are the same, the difference in the amount of information between a short story of 10,000 words and a novel of one million words is definitely huge.

In addition, the author's level will also affect the difference in information contained in novels of the same number of words.

Xiuyi had played and seen this in his previous life, so how could he be inferior to an ordinary card maker in this world?

The two sides were not on the same dimension from the very beginning.

The maid took her leave, and the few of them sat down and immediately began to discuss the expedition against the goblins.

After learning the detailed information about the Goblin Tribe, Goblin Slayer pondered for a moment: "I have always been a loner and have never had the experience of leading an army. But I can provide you with information about the Goblins so that you can better understand these damn guys."

"There should still be some goblins imprisoned in the dungeon, right?" Xiuyi said to Hocas, "The number of goblins that were put into cages and sent out this morning is obviously not all."

"They stayed for a while, but most of them are not in good condition." Viscount Horcas was very concerned about the goblins. He understood Shuichi's intention in a blink of an eye: "Why don't we go directly to the dungeon?"

"Alright."

Xiuyi turned to Goblin Slayer and said, "Let's go and take a look. The goblins here are a little different from what you know."

“Aren’t you going to put me away?” The Goblin Slayer sitting opposite Shuichi did not agree immediately, but asked back: “The time is almost up.”

Depending on the difference in strength between the Shadow Beast and its user, the Shadow Beast can move independently outside for no more than an hour, after which they can break free from the constraints of the Relic Card and escape the control of the Summoner.

Goblin Slayer asked at this point, obviously wanting to know why Shuichi hadn't taken himself back into Kari.

Did he forget, or did he do it on purpose?

In response to Goblin Slayer's question, Hocas and Bokolanchi both turned their eyes to Shuichi.

"I plan to give you freedom." Regardless of the surprised looks from others, Xiuyi smiled gently at the Goblin Slayer: "Other shadow beasts need to be restrained because their behavior is out of control and they are likely to cause harm to others or even the Creator. But you are different. Your existence itself is to deal with goblins, and you only want to kill goblins. The threat to ordinary people is almost zero. And you have enough reason to judge right from wrong. Since you are a real person, why should I restrict your freedom?"

Bocolanqi: "..."

Hocas: “…”

Goblin Slayer: “…”

Phoenix Fire: "Master is so great~~"

When Viscount Hocas first heard Shuichi's words, he really had the urge to ask Shuichi to hand over the ownership of Goblin Slayer to him.

He could understand Phoenix Fire releasing itself, because Phoenix Fire had been bound to Xiuyi since its creation.

The [Symbiosis] characteristic is no joke. Once Shuichi dies, Phoenix Fire will be in trouble.

However, there is nothing in Goblin Slayer's characteristics that can bind him or force his loyalty.

In Hocas's opinion, Goblin Slayer was created by Shuichi, so he should belong to Shuichi naturally.

Mature nobles only consider their own interests and don't care whether Goblin Slayer has enough wisdom.

But after listening to what Shuichi said, Hocas felt an indescribable shock.

He never denied that there were relatively pure people in this world, but he never thought that such an idealist would be his son-in-law...

In fact, even the Society of Knowledge, which is known for its rationality, does not regard the shadow beasts it created as independent individuals.

The mainstream of this world is to enslave shadow beasts, use them for one's own purposes, and gain absolute control.

Because of perspective issues, they never thought that shadow beasts were also intelligent.

Those animal shadow beasts that cannot control their own behavior and have low spirituality are fine.

How could a highly intelligent humanoid shadow beast admit that it was a slave?

Rebellion is only a matter of time.

In this case, it would be better to set the personalities of the humanoid shadow beasts from the very beginning, and then set them free when the time is right.

If you operate it well, it's like recruiting generals in a game.

The humanoid shadow beast that I created, don’t you even know what the opponent’s weakness is?

If the creator doesn’t know, then he is a failure.

And what is Goblin Slayer's weakness?

Goblin!

As long as he is given goblins to kill and his own code of conduct does not exceed his bottom line, he will definitely be obedient.

Finally, release the Goblin Slayer and then subdue him as a retainer to save a summoning slot.

It’s a win-win situation!

"I understand." After listening to Shuichi's explanation, Goblin Slayer did not make any unnecessary movements, but his heart was no longer confused: "As long as I can kill the goblins, I can listen to you."

At this moment, Goblin Slayer felt as if he had broken free from an invisible shackle.

Under the influence of an invisible force of rules, his body underwent changes that were imperceptible to the naked eye.

The "five" on his head, which originally represented the level of the shadow beast, gradually disappeared...

Goblin Slayer broke free from the constraints of the Relic Card, but did not suddenly attack anyone. He just sat calmly on the sofa, as if this rebirth had nothing to do with him.

But everyone present knew that a few seconds ago, Goblin Slayer had silently transformed from a shadow beast into a flesh-and-blood person.

In an instant, Hocas felt as if he had opened the door to a new world.

This is how the pattern was opened...
