“Keeek! Make! Nets! Make!”
“Y-yes! Please give us food! We’ll make it!”
“Keieeek! Give! Make! Give!”
The goblin screamed angrily and Victor stepped back. He seemed to have given up.
“Joy! Mike! Billy! Come here!”
“Yeah!”
“See? I said you won’t get it.”
Children holding crude tools in their hands all gathered up next to Victor. Those tools were used to reconstruct the torn nets into something that could be used.
“I hope we can go ahead and catch fish ourselves,” said Mike grumpily.
“Yeah, I think we can get more,” Billy agreed. The other kids seemed to agree as well.
“Mike, stop talking and get to work.”
“Gosh, Victor. Are you a goblin now?”
“What did you say?”
“You always beg those goblins!”
“It’s me who gets the most food!”
“It was better when Grant was with us…”
“You bastard!”
Those two kids began to fight while the others looked at them in shock. The fight did not last too long, however, as they all stopped with tears in their eyes. The goblins were terrible beings. They killed the adults because they wouldn’t listen and ate them. It was horrible.
After a long silence, Mike said with a determined look, “Victor, we need to escape.”
Victor’s eyes grew wide.
“What? Are you crazy? Did you not see what happens when you get caught while trying to escape? We’ll be eaten alive!”
“It doesn’t matter!”
“What?”
Victor frowned as Mike spat, “You coward. I’m leaving. I’m not going to stay here and wait for everyone to die.”
He then grinned when Victor said, “Mike. Don’t die out there.”
“Yeah. But do you think there are adults out there?”
“No. If there were, they would’ve come already.”
Mike then turned and disappeared into the darkness.
“Ugh!”
“Kiieek! Human! Stop!”
“No!”
Mike shouted as he ran. There was a group of goblins chasing him from behind. They were firing arrows with their crude bows, which made them far from perfect shots, but it was dangerous enough for a twelve-year-old exhausted boy.
“Dammit!”
Mike ran as hard as he could, but he was getting exhausted. Besides, in the first place, he and the other children had been so badly starved that they did not have much energy to begin with. And the goblins were much faster.
The goblins were chasing him as if it was some kind of a game. Mike kept on running, but he knew he was slowing down. As he ran, he felt his vision blurring from sweat and tears. He didn’t want to die. He couldn’t die here. That’s when he saw something.
‘…Hm? What is that?’
Joonbum frowned. He felt something moving in the distance and stopped walking. Doral, who was walking ahead, also stopped.
“Do you hear that?”
Doral became confused as Joonbum looked around. Jinpok who had been chewing jerky behind them got up with his handaxe.
“Something’s coming!”
Joonbum pointed and everyone turned in that direction.
They heard goblins shouting, and soon, they were able to see a group of goblins chasing someone.
“Jinpok! Be careful!”
Joonbum shouted as Jinpok swung his axe. The goblin that charged at him was immediately struck dead as the other goblins began firing arrows at them.
“Goblins!”
Ten goblins attacked them from the darkness.
“Lindel! Ed! Green! Vox!”
The captain of the soldiers, Lieutenant Odman, quickly analyzed the situation and called out to his troops. They did not answer, but instead, they quickly fired arrows at the goblins. Within seconds, all the goblins were killed.
“Whoa, c’mon boys. Save some for me too.”
Jinpok complained as Joonbum and Doral quickly ran up to the boy who was being chased.
“Hey, kid.”
“A-ahh! P-please help! K-kids! We have sick! And injured! Help!”
The boy who stood there with shock came back to his senses and shouted.
“Wow, I thought he was almost dying. Hey kid, you hungry?” Jinpok flashed his jerky at the boy and the boy began to drool. He then snatched jerky from Jinpok’s hand and furiously began gnawing on it.
