The Romantic Life of a Goblin

Alan took a deep breath and walked into the entrance of the cave.

Inside was a long, winding tunnel with faint light flickering on the walls, making it feel a bit eerie.

After passing through the tunnel, the view suddenly opens up and a huge cave hall appears.

This cave is the goblins' dining hall, and also their daily rest and sleeping place.

The cave was filled with a strong, nauseating stench.

Alan suppressed his discomfort and looked around, only to find that the walls of the cave were covered with bloodstains and claw marks, and various old items were scattered on the ground.

In a corner of the cave, several old goblins were curled up there, their bodies were covered with wrinkles, their teeth were broken, and their faces were distorted.

These older goblins are responsible for guarding the home, while other adult goblins go out to distant places to hunt and gather food.

When Alan's eyes met those old goblins, he felt a chill run down his heart.

Their scarlet eyes revealed an aura of ferocity and cruelty that made people feel fearful.

Alan reminded himself that he was now a member of the goblin tribe and must face reality and try to adapt to this new world.

He took a few deep breaths, trying to calm his fear and told himself to stay calm.

The spacious cave hall was filled with a stench of decay and blood.

In the center, a remnant of a campfire still emitted a faint glow, with only one or two branches burning tenaciously in the embers, flickering a weak flame.

There were some bones scattered around.

Even though goblins are the lowest and weakest of all races, this does not mean that they are afraid of humans.

On the contrary, goblins become extremely excited when adventurers break into their lairs because they can plunder.

For goblins, food, equipment and women are all their coveted targets.

In the eyes of goblins, men are like hard bones, difficult to chew and may even break their teeth.

Women, on the other hand, were like delicious fat meat, soft and tasty, making them salivate.

Goblins are a race with a long history and they have existed in this world for a long time.

Although the goblins themselves are not very powerful in combat, they can bring unexpected troubles to inexperienced novice adventurers from time to time with their endless nests, huge numbers, and some insidious and cunning means.

However, in most cases, goblin nests are eventually destroyed by brave adventurers.

Fortunately, the goblin's lair where Allen is located has not been visited by adventurers so far due to its remote and hidden location.

When the old goblin saw the cubs coming back, he got up and directed them to pour the collected wild vegetables, mushrooms and a big rat into a bucket woven with vines and covered with clay in the middle of the hall and then covered it with a lid.

However, it is not time for dinner yet, so the old goblin did not pour water or light a fire immediately. He was still waiting for the other goblins to come back to see if he could catch other prey or find some edible fruits.

After the two goblin cubs who came back with Allen handed the food to the old goblins, they ran over without hesitation to watch the wrestling match between the old goblins and the slaves.

But Alan resisted the urge to join in the fun. He walked around the bustling scene, went inside the cave, and began to organize his thoughts, trying to figure out what had happened.

He sat on a stone in the cave, posing as a thinker. With the lively wrestling match as the background music, Alan began to think seriously about life, oh, goblin life.

First of all, he confirmed again that he had traveled through time and space and had become a newly grown goblin cub, currently living in a goblin cave.

Although the whole thing is a bit confusing, I can only accept this reality for now.

Furthermore, as far as we know, in addition to goblins, there are also humans in this world, such as slaves.

Alan couldn't help but feel confused. Why do the people in other people's novels have systems, awesome plug-ins, and golden fingers when they travel through time, but he has nothing, and he is dirty and sticky, and looks ugly, which affects his communication with the women in this world.

From now on, except for female goblins who think I am so handsome, women of other races would never obey me even if they die when they see my face and small body.

"How can we survive in this dangerous world?"

Thinking of this, Alan discovered that he did have the special skill of "dark vision", or a racial talent. It was not obvious because the moon was too bright outside the cave just now.

There was no other light source in the cave except for a dying fire, but the goblins could see everything inside the cave clearly.

The goblins and slaves in the cave were having a lively wrestling match.

After watching for a while, Alan stood up and walked around in the cave. He found a half-burned stick as a torch and decided to explore the environment inside the goblin's nest.

In the middle of the cave is a fire made of rubble, and the blazing flames bring a touch of warmth to the entire cave.

Around the fire, there were several rough wooden racks with a clay pot hanging from them.

There were still some food scraps left in the pot, obviously what the goblins had left over.

The remaining meat scraps, bones and thick soup in the pot mixed together, giving off an unpleasant smell.

Some crude wooden bowls and spoons were scattered on the floor of the cave. Their shapes were crooked, as if they were randomly pieced together.

It can be seen that the dishes have never been cleaned and the surface is covered with dirt and stains.

For goblins, the concept of "hygiene" seems to not exist at all.

Perhaps in their eyes, the dirtiness and greasiness on their bodies is a weapon that makes other races afraid.

In addition to this cave hall, there are three smaller caves inside the cave.

These caves may be where the goblins sleep or store items, but due to the dim light, it is impossible to see the details from a distance.

Alan took the fire stick and walked closer to take a look.

The first cave was filled with a lot of wood, broken pottery jars and earthenware basins, as well as broken armor pieces and metal weapons stolen from humans.

These items were scattered randomly on the ground, as if this was just a simple warehouse.

Alan guessed that this cave should be used by the goblins as a storage room to store the things they looted from outside.

There is also a haystack inside the cave, in which are hidden three sleeping goblin newborns.

Unlike human newborns, goblin newborns rarely make any sound. Perhaps this is an instinct engraved in their genes that allows them to better avoid being hunted by other races.

After all, if other races heard the cry of a goblin baby, it would undoubtedly be a disaster for them.

The three little guys were sleeping soundly. Alan guessed that they were probably born not long ago.

Then, Alan came to the second cave.

The entrance to the cave was blocked with branches and wooden boards, as if to prevent anything from escaping.

Before he could get close, a foul odor hit him in the face, it was the smell of decay.

Alan frowned, carefully moved closer, and looked through the gap. He saw flies flying all over the cave, and the whole space was filled with a disgusting smell.

In the center of the room was an earth pit filled with bones of various animals, food scraps, and even the remains of a corpse that looked like that of a human or some other race.

The wreckage was crawling with maggots, which was creepy.

Alan thought back to his previous experience and suddenly remembered that this seemed to be the place where goblins raised flies.

Those white maggots are the staple food of newborn goblins.

When Alan thought of this, he felt a strong sense of nausea and almost vomited.
