Goblin Kingdom

TL Note: Gi Dji -> Gi Jii; I think it’s funnier like this, and I don’t think it’s any harder to remember than the other names anyway.

Also Swordsmans.h.i.+p should have been promoted to B+ several chapters ago. I forgot to update the status. It’s there now.

"Understood! Gi Jii, you’re coming with me," said Gi Go.

"Yes. It’s been like that for some time now," responded Gi Ji.

It must be dissatisfaction from being ordered around by someone with a physique clearly weaker than theirs. And right after suffering a defeat too.

"Tell me about the orc horde that split off from this one."

"Attack, of course," I curtly replied.

The corners of my mouth naturally rose up, forming a smile. If there is any question… that would be: which to attack first.

◇◆◆

"Master Bui…"

As the gazes of my wounded brethren fell on me, I raised my fallen gaze up.

"Master Goi and the others have…"

Their voices were all shaken up. In order to soothe their panic, I clearly replied.

"I had them fight the goblins as a separate horde."

It’s clearly a lie, but even then, I mustn’t show any weakness.

I couldn’t throw my wounded brethren away, and we spent so much time gathering our comrades. I don’t think I made the wrong choice, but even then, I can’t help but fear. It’s almost as if the goblins chased after us right after we left.

I ran away from the goblin village after the death of Master Gol Gol with my wounded brethren in tow because I was scared.

That Goblin King.

Even though he had a small body like mine, the aura surrounding his body was completely different.

It was scary. Using a flame-clad great sword, a mere goblin actually exchanged blows with Master Go Gol… and won.

A heaven-earth revolving event or a bolt from the blues… I don’t know. I don’t know what I should call it, but anyway, it was a shock.

"Let’s rest a bit," I said.

Right.

We should have also inflicted plenty of damage against the goblins. They shouldn’t be able to chase after us right away.

So it should be fine if we just rest here for a bit, and let everyone recover their strength.

"Alright," responded the others.

Seeing my brethren nod their head, I sat myself as well.

My sword and spear

It seemed like I could drop it at any time, so I left it on the ground.

Master Gol Gol who appointed young and little me is no longer here.

Goi, Gui and the others are all my seniors, so they refused to listen to my orders, and acted on their own.

I know. I know that it’s because I’m not strong enough.

I don’t have the power to make them give in, that’s why they left.

Even the orcs here too. The only reason they’re following my orders is because Master Gol Gol’s influence is still lingering.

I want power.

At the very least, something like that of the Goblin King’s.

Suddenly, I heard a voice scream from the forest.

My nose moved, and the smell of blood wafted to my nose. It’s the blood of my brethren! The distance is… no way. Why are there so many goblins nearby!? And these many too!?

"Everyone, stand up!"

Fl.u.s.tered, I quickly wielded my s.h.i.+eld and sword. But as I was about to set a route, I was shocked.

Why are there goblins in front of us!?

As I was thinking that, another scream bellowed out from behind.

"Goblin…!"

They should have been a species weaker than us. But right now… what stood in front was a goblin with tawny skin, a black mane fluttering over its three horns, a vicious face, and a physique that was incomparable to us… it’s him!

The Goblin King who killed Master Gol Gol! He’s chased after us!

"M-Master Bui"

Someone called out to me.

With my legs shaking, I walked toward the king of the goblins. His face was broadly grinning. It was vicious.

Scary! Scary! Scary!!

The subordinates behind the Goblin King threw something.

"Goi!?"

Goi and the others who separated from the horde before had been dismembered and thrown at our feet.

"GURUuuuAAaA!"

The howl of the goblins bellowed, sending chills up our backs, causing our feet to vigorously shake.

Scary! Scary! Scary!

This is even scarier than when there was a giant spider!!

"Orcs!"

The Goblin King’s voice echoed.

It’s as if his great voice was shaking even the very piths of my stomach! Scary!

"I will give you a chance!"

As I stood there in front of my brethren, I heard voices scream out from behind me again.

Swallowed by the fear, and from a quick look at the surrounding area, I knew… We were already completely surrounded by the goblins.

"Fall under my lead! If you refuse, then you shall all die here!"

We’ll be eaten!

Scary! Scary! Scary!!

"A, Ahh…"

I couldn’t talk straight.

"G-Give m-me time to t-talk with my b-brethren."

For a moment, I thought I felt the goblin’s golden pupils flash.

"No! If you are the chief, then you must decide!"

It’s impossible!

Unlike Master Gol Gol, I don’t have the power to convince my brethren. The only reason I was able to bring everyone here is because of Master Gol Gol’s influence.

For someone like me to…

"T-That’s…"

"I accept, Orc King."

Wrong. I’m not the Orc King. That’s a t.i.tle only Master Gol Gol has.

Someone like me is… Someone like me could never become a king.

But even as I thought that, I shook my head to the Goblin King’s words.

Orc King…

Like this… we became subordinated to the goblins.

Second, there’s the skin color which was written as grey in the other chapter, but now it’s brown. The only other translation is ashen for the previous chapter's, so… Yeah, maybe author mistake or it was changed. But I don’t see any change notes anywhere. Or maybe protag just doesn’t know the difference between brown and grey… haha. I don’t know.
