In a forest that is over a kilometer away to the north of Alastray

In this forest, the trees have a grayish color and the surrounding landscape is lush, with varied and colorful vegetation. Sunlight filters through the treetops, creating a soft and tranquil atmosphere. Mosses and lichens grow on the bark, bringing shades of green, silver, and blue. The ground is covered with a thick layer of dry leaves, producing a gentle sound when stepped on. The fauna includes silver squirrels and gray owls.

"Could you all show up? There's a party in a few days, and I don't want you to interfere."

It may not seem like it, but I'm surrounded by small creatures commonly known as goblins, as well as other creatures from this forest. Their skin is gray, and their eyes are blue. The only difference between them and other animals is that they have red stripes all over their bodies.

Activating the Divine Hand, I cover my legs with golden energy and bend my knees, leaping diagonally into the canopy of one of the trees. Holding the head of a goblin and moving my arm downward, I crush its skull.

" GROUUUUUUH!"

The furious screams of the goblins echo through the forest, followed by the sound of trees rustling frantically due to the goblins' great movement, as well as the sound of them running toward me from the bushes where they were hiding.

Thirteen goblins jump from the treetops toward me, each one wielding a wooden axe with a black blade.

"Come on, all of you!" I shout, leaping toward them, using only my gauntlets without any magical reinforcement on my hands.

By thrusting my fingers into the head of one of the goblins, I spin my body, striking all around me and hurling it to the ground.

While in free fall, I see three more goblins flying towards me. Kicking one of their heads to gain momentum, I hurl myself towards a tree on the left, hitting it with my left foot. I leap towards the seven goblins on the ground, passing through their midst, slicing the chests of two and kicking the belly of the third, sending him flying.

I continue fighting the goblins, crushing and dismembering them.

' What's the matter? You're really weaker than I thought. It's easier here than it would be in the game. '

I stop the attack of an axe that tries to hit me from behind, gripping the blade and causing it to break. At the same time, I turn around and thrust my arm into the chest of the goblin.

As the fight continues, the movements of the goblins are becoming more predictable, which is strange because they're dumb as hell. They shouldn't be able to coordinate their attacks.

Two goblins leap from the treetops, one coming from the front and the other from behind, in a pincer attack, attempting to cut my head in half.

"I'm just trying to reduce your numbers, so why don't you all attack at once?"

I punch both axes, shattering their blades, and with a leap, I open my hands, severing the heads of the two goblins.

"Garhakaga! (damn human)"

"Graiktajan Grantakdp (How dare you humiliate us)"

"Grapamavaov Grantaon Grantaokain GrItakbai (You will pay for this. Your entire family will be ours. We will make good use of each one of them)"

The goblins continued to insult me in every possible way. With each passing remark, it got worse. I might not fully understand their words, but the tone was obvious. For the first time, I was glad not to comprehend something related to the game, but it was still irritating me. Even though they called me the worst possible names, they remained hidden.

"Why don't you shut up and attack me already?"

I punched the ground, causing all the fake entrances to collapse, opening nine holes around me. Inside them, the sound of goblins moving and climbing with their hands could be heard.

"So, there you are."

I leaped towards one of the holes, but at the same time, the place was filled with a strange sound, the sound of a rain of axes flying towards me.

I smiled, stopping a few centimeters away from one of the holes in the ground.

"Now these are the goblins I know."

With a smile, I jumped backward, falling into one of the nearby holes, punching the head of one of the two goblins inside, pressing his face against the wall, crushing his head, while the other goblin dropped his axe and started trembling in fear.

Without saying a word, I grabbed that goblin by the arm and leaped up, lifting his body above my head, getting hit by six axes that were meant for me.

As the rain of axes continued for a few more seconds, I had to put my other hand on the goblin's back to keep him still in the air, receiving three more axes, then four, and when the rain stopped, he had been hit by fourteen axes.

"I think that's enough. So, those who don't want to die, never dare to touch the cities near this forest."

I threw the lifeless body of the goblin to the ground. The silence that filled the place was the answer I wanted. These damn creatures always managed to annoy me, invading randomly. And the worst part was that, being an emergency, there was no reward, at least not in the story, as it was a weekly mission to obtain gems.

' Maybe I went a bit too far ' I thought, looking at the goblin's body, covered in deeply embedded axes.

Sighing, I crouched down, removing all the axes. After doing so, I placed my hand over the center of the goblin's belly, activating the Divine Hand. The golden energy completely covered his body, healing all the superficial wounds and making the goblin's appearance as if he had never suffered a scratch, although all his internal injuries remained.

"It's in your nature, so forgive me for being such a wretched human."

I stood up, starting to distance myself from the goblins.

"But remember, never dare to invade any of the cities near this forest, and I won't cause any more unnecessary harm to you."

As I was leaving, I heard the sound of someone coughing, and from inside one of the trees, an elderly goblin with a wrinkled body emerged, walking with a cane that held a small red precious stone, just like a ruby.

' So, that's the reason for these coordinate attacks. If there's a shaman here, Kriana must not have reached this forest yet. That's great. It would be impossible to conquer her if she saw me killing her own kind ' I thought, while contemplating this, realizing that I had already distanced myself from the forest, being less than a kilometer away from the city of Alastray.
