Boom an explosion sounded off at the front gate, the alarm needlessly started ringing.
All the patrons inside the inn aside from Kadrin and Maro had ran outside to see what happened.
Quick Kadrin motioned, "lets clear the guards by the mine and then rescue everyone"
Maro and Kadrin took a brisk walk to the mine entrance.
He really hoped the overseer of this mine wasn't some mage… he hated mages and goblins… both of them together was a disgusting combo.
The goatmen were guarding the uneven terrain of the ground leading up to the mine, all the orcs had been ordered to run out and check on the Troll situation.
Those dexterous grass eaters were standing on 2 cm platforms on top of the mine, no other race could do that, they had no ranged weapons and they were impossible to get to.
"Kadrin follow my lead"
Maro started making racist mocking goat sounds while pretending to be a four legged goat.
Kadrin confused "what the hell are you…"
Just then all the goatmen jumped down pissed as hell, there were 10 of them in total.
Kadrin joined in the racist mockery.
A goatman with fur as white as snow bleated "How narrow minded you are, racism in the Unity kingdom is against the Law, both of you are under arrest"
[Vanguard Charge]
Booom! He charged into them killing two as his greatsword sliced in an arc, and a couple others fell back.
Just behind him was Kadrin as he used [Shield Bash] on a group of three as they were bunched up. Unprepared, the first Goatmen had his arms shattered under the force of Shield Bash, he and his 2 comrades were blown back.
Caught off guard, the goatmen were quickly disposed of.
"Do you think Goatmen taste like goat?" Maro said
"Only one way to…"
Just then a throwing knife embedded itself into Kadrin's shield with a thud.
"Go Kadrin, I'll deal with whoever is left and I will catch up, free your people. If they think you are the hero, you might get laid" Maro gave him a thumbs up and took off to where the knife came from.
Kadrin ran in as he heard steel clash behind him.
"Fuck why did I wave him in, this guy is tough as hell" Maro clenched his teeth
He must have been the overseer of the mine, he definitely was the warrior class. He couldn't believe how fast this goblin was with his dual short swords.
He was seriously good, every strike slightly deflected off course or dodged completely. Nothing was landing.
Maro was getting a lot of superficial cuts… he had to find a way.
Why the hell did he tell Kadrin to run off. Maro thought about switching to his knives, but he definitely didn't have the same speed as the Goblin; it would only hasten his loss. He kept the great sword for its reach, it's the only thing that kept the Goblin at bay.
Even with bloodrush on he was barely keeping up.
Just then the Goblin stopped and stared.
Maro took advantage of the break.
"You are strong… serve my master and you will live like royalty, you'll be paid a lot of silver and all the dwarf meat you can eat"
Maro gagged a bit at the thought of eating someone as disgusting as Kadrin, he just imagined all the spitting.
"Ha! who would serve a disgusting green rapist… I would rather hug a troll's nuts after a hot day in the sun than serve such a lowly and nasty creature… could you imagine a goblin boss hahaha, like anything could get done with such a small brain "
The goblin was grinding his teeth and walking forward.
"Sorry I forgot to clarify, I would hug the trolls nuts from behind by crawling through his swampass than ever serve a small brained idiot child fucking goblin. If you're lucky an orc would keep you around as a pocket pussy"
The Goblin was mad with rage at this point, Maro heard a tooth crack. He didn't have a reason to provoke him but was just delaying till a miracle happened…
Miracle happened… Miracle come… be upon me great miracle.....
No Miracle, the goblin was out for blood, no more play time.
The goblin finally used a skill, it was some sort of charge/speed ability…the shortsword fully pierced his shoulder, the second one pierced his side… the goblin was seething and frothing at the mouth in anger.
The Goblin was standing on Maro's Hips holding onto his swords, they were face to face… Disgusting green spit from the goblin was splashing his face, it smelt like redigested shit. Maro wasn't drunk but he had drunk a bunch, just then he vomited all over the goblins face.
How do you like that you shit goblin.
The Goblin reeled back, the stomach acid greatly irritating the goblin's eyes, it let go of his shortswords to jump off.
Seizing the opportunity, Maro bearhugged the temporarily blinded Goblin and did what he did best… [Vanguard Charge]
He exploded the goblin against the rocky wall. Boom, blood and guts everywhere… Maro being the idiot that he was, ended up embedding the swords deeper into himself and fell on the floor.
As he was passing out, he saw Kadrin running out of the cave with many dwarves armed with pickaxes and shovels behind him.
Kadrin saw him and ran to him, as he knelt down to check on Maro he spat really close to Maro's head. 'Fucking disgusting Maro thought'
With his last bit of energy, he managed to say "The swords inside me and… whatever the goblin had is my loot" and he passed out.
Maro had leveled up again, but he found out how to put his notice system on 'Do not Disturb"
