The Romantic Life of a Goblin

Elodie's eyes lit up, and she was about to jump up and cheer excitedly, but reason stopped her.

She is no longer a freelance businessman, but just a lowly slave in the goblin's lair.

Thinking of this identity, the female scholar's excitement immediately subsided...

Elodie sat on the stone with her knees hugged, her mind a little confused.

What was wrong with her? Although she was as calm as usual and able to think rationally, she now felt that something was wrong with her. It seemed that some of her negative emotions had become very weak, and feelings like fear and hatred were almost disappearing.

Was it because of the effects of staying with the goblins for too long? Or was it the food and water? Elodie began to analyze what had happened in the past few days.

Compared to before, everything seemed to have changed slowly since arriving at this new nest.

"Ahem~", suddenly a cough was heard from the side.

The female scholar was startled and sat up with her eyes opened in panic, a bit like a student who was caught doing something bad by the teacher.

In the afterglow of the setting sun, a young elf was seen standing next to her.

The elf was wearing fitted leather armor, with a slender and upright figure, heroic demeanor, and handsome appearance, making it almost difficult to tell whether he was a man or a woman. His short dark green hair and long eyelashes cast a golden halo around the edges when he faced away from the sun.

Such a stunning beauty made the female scholars stunned and their hearts began to pound.

Ansel looked at the woman in front of him with some embarrassment. He passed by a stream at noon today and finally washed his boots. Then he rode his horse at full speed and just as he arrived at the entrance of the goblin's nest, he saw this woman lying on a rock doing something shameful.

If it was a private scene like this with ordinary people, the elf boy would choose to avoid it, but considering that this is the goblin's lair, it seems common for women to do such things, so he still came up and said hello.

Although it was rude to interrupt her like this, Ansel still felt that he should remind her.

Elf: "There are a few goblins on guard over there. They seemed to be about to pounce on you just now..."

Elodie finally reacted, but didn't know what to say: "Ah!, that, I'm not..., actually..."

The usually calm female scholar was at a loss.

Ansel didn't know her, but since this woman appeared here, she should be one of the female slaves in the nest.

The elf boy bowed politely and greeted, "Hello, I am Ansel of Lacatro, the son of the forest."

Ilodi quickly jumped off the stone, pulled up the hem of her rags, and bowed in response to the lady's greeting:

"Good day, I am Elodie, a scholar from the capital, nice to meet you."

After all, he is educated, and although a little awkward, his movements and manners are very good.

After the greeting, which seemed like an instinctive reaction, ended, the female scholar was startled. She was so bewitched by the elegant and handsome man that she forgot that this was not a dance party. How could this beautiful elf appear here?

After instinctively wrapping his rags tightly around his body, Elodi squinted his eyes and looked at him carefully. The elf boy was carrying a bag and a bow on his back, with a dagger hanging on his waist. He was dressed like a warrior, and he was holding a half-dead goblin in his left hand.

'He is an adventurer! ' Elodie understood.

She couldn't help but start to speculate about the handsome elf's origins: "Did he come here specifically to fight the goblins? Or was he just passing by?" But the thoughtful female scholar felt that she didn't have time to think more.

Ilodi rushed to the elf without shyness:

"Are you here alone? Or are you teaming up with other adventurers?"

Elodi: "This is the goblin's lair. Have you accepted the mission to subdue the goblins?"

As he spoke, Elodi looked around, as if he wanted to find the elf adventurer team, but unfortunately he found nothing.

Elodie turned back:

"It's too dangerous for you to be alone."

Without waiting for the elf boy to reply, the female scholar continued her analysis:

"There are a lot of goblins here, at least sixty or more, and a dozen pig-headed men. It will be very difficult for you to defeat them alone. By the way, their priests are also very powerful in witchcraft."

Ansel looked at the anxious woman in front of him and couldn't get a word in.

Elodie did not pause:

"There are twenty captured women here, but half of them are disabled..."

As she spoke, her voice gradually became quieter, and she seemed a little frustrated:

"To attack the nest and rescue them, we need at least a team of ten or more mid-level adventurers, led by a Jade-level leader."

Such a team configuration requires a lot of money, but there is generally no profit in defeating goblins, and high-level adventurers and hunters rarely accept such missions.

Ansel felt that this woman had a big misunderstanding of him, and he supported her awkwardly while listening to the female scholar excitedly continue to sell out information about the nest.

The elf boy kept smiling but didn't know how to explain it.

The goblin in his hand took the opportunity to break free, squeaked twice, and then used both hands and feet to rush into the cave.

Iloti then stopped and, after regaining his senses, he realized that he had been too hasty:

"Well, I was captured by the goblins. I'm sorry, I was too excited just now."

Ansel nodded politely:

"It's okay, I can understand..."

The elf boy paused:

"Actually, I just wanted to remind you that it's getting dark and the rocks are still very cold. You... can easily catch a cold."

Elodie was stunned for a moment, then realized that he was talking about her lying there doing something embarrassing just now. Looking at the handsome elf warrior in front of her, her face immediately turned red. This man was really embarrassing.

The woman shyly pulled the hem of her clothes with her hands, as if she wanted to cover her body better.

But the female scholar immediately figured it out. Now was not the time to be shy. She looked up at the elf boy:

"Now is not the time to talk about this. You should leave immediately. At least go to the town to help pass on the message. It would be nice if you can issue a mission to subjugate the goblins."

Ansiel shook his head and didn't respond.

He sighed inwardly, knowing that this woman regarded him as an adventurer and seemed to be pinning her hopes on him leading a team to defeat these goblins.

Ansiel wanted to explain:

"Sorry, I'm not..."

But he stopped, somewhat reluctant to dash her hopes.

At this moment, Alan's voice came from the cave behind him:

"You're finally back, Ansiel."

Ilodi's heart tightened suddenly:

"Let's go, it's too late."

She looked at the elf's handsome face and reluctantly reached out to push him away.

The elf boy looked towards the direction of the cave entrance, and Allen, Carola, Ronelle, Winnie and Annie all came out. These women had met him in the town last time and "lived" together for a few days, so they were quite familiar with each other.
