The Fresh Start In An RPG World 6 Chapter 6 - First Battle

The goblins were very similar to those that appear in games, mini green people, they had something around six feet, their noses and ears were pointed, besides thanks to the improved smell of the vampires the three of us could feel the stench coming from them.

— They probably smelled the rabbits. — Chloe speaks softly.

— Their levels are low so they can't notice us here, usually the goblins' sense of smell is higher according to their levels, they must have something around two or three, I believe they are newborns just like you. — Lucio speaks by watching them closely.

An a.n.a.lysis like this is only possible thanks to experiences in combat, this shows that Lucio has fought a lot and has a lot of experience, it makes me curious about the status of my tutor.

At that moment I already had three hundred xp, those rabbits that were being fried at the campfire were hunted by me, that's what I did while Lucio went to get Chloe.

~10 rabbits in total = 300 xp~

— Can I beat them? — Yes, I think I ended up showing that I was excited.

The reason for that was quite easy, those were goblins, enemies who usually appear in games, my nerd heart was firing once again.

Lucio looks at the goblins and then at me, he seemed to be thinking, considering all the possibilities, it was his job as a tutor after all, to teach me to survive in this world like a vampire.

— Unarmed will have no chance at all. — Lucio talks about taking something from his feelings. — Here, take this.

He delivers the dagger, what was perceived first was the difference between this dagger and the one he was using before, not a matter of quality, since just looking at it you could see that both were very well sharpened and cared for, the difference was in the ornaments in the hem.

— Looking at the dagger? You look made for combat — says Lucio.

"You can't even imagine," that's what I wanted to say to Lucio, but I'm just satisfied with the thought.

— So, what's the plan? I'd like to try to fight — I say.

— The plan is — Lucio starts talking, but ends up being interrupted by Chloe's action.

— Good luck! — She speaks by giving me a little push, which makes me lose my balance and fall forward out of the bushes.

I fall down doing a rolling and then get up right away.

"This idiot" is what I can think at this time, for some reason I feel that Lucio thought the same.

— Well, whatever, just try not to die. — Lucio speaks softly, probably so that the goblins don't notice them there. — I'm serious, if you die we'll let the goblins eat your body.

Before being pushed I was thinking about some combat strategies, however now that I've been noticed all this has gone down the drain.

— Oripmav mu? Ossi is euq o. — The right-most goblin talks.

— ?alhidamra amu, odnarepse son avates him. — The second one answers.

The two were surprised by my sudden appearance, however instead of attacking they talked to each other, it was the perfect chance, probably an attack would still catch them by surprise now.

The one on the left was with two old rusty knives, while the other had a big sword that was almost his size, the choice is clear.

— Tsk... It's been a while since I've done that, but it's now or never. — I speak by throwing the dagger at the goblin on the right.

The dagger flies from my hand spinning and hits the belly of the goblin, all those fights in my previous life were proving useful.

I aimed at the goblin with the dagger just because I thought it was the fastest between the two.

— Sárt arap ri etnet racata ieri, adrem. — The goblin on the left speaks trying to wield his sword.

The hit goblin was a few steps ahead of his companion, just as he had planned the other one wasn't that mobile, the sword was too big for him, almost his size, which made the scene very comical since he couldn't move properly.

— ...Otium odnargnas uotse. — The hit goblin falls to the ground, so he can't move.

Seeing this opportunity I run up to him and pull the dagger, when it was pulled out it ends up cutting further and opening his wound, the other goblin tries to attack with the sword, but with a kick I throw his partner over him.

— Otidlam. — The second goblin screams while the two fall.

Hold the dagger, it was bathed in blood, again I see myself being attacked by my instincts and I end up licking the blood. The taste was even better than the blood of those rabbits, as Lucio had said the satisfaction was much bigger and I clearly felt the desire for more.

— Just run and leave me here, he's too strong to deal with. — The goblin who was wounded speaks, still had a very husky voice, however now I could clearly understand what was said.

— I can't leave you here! — The other one answers.

I am stunned by the fact that I can understand the goblin, which makes me lower my guard for a little while.

— I still have my letter up my sleeve! — The goblin speaks from underneath his companion.

— s.h.i.+t, I got distracted. — I speak trying to attack once more by moving forward.

As soon as I take the first step forward the goblin releases a little laughter, at the same time I stop, but it was too late, he pushes his partner to the side and points the palm of his hand towards me.

— Fireball. — The goblin speaks and his hand glows red.

— That's right. I throw the dagger in his direction, however I end up missing the target because of the fireball that hits me right in the middle.

Luckily I managed to put my arm in front of my face, the ball of fire hits him directly, I feel my skin burning and the agonizing pain, but at the same time letters appear in his vision.

~ 120 xp gain ~

One of the goblins was probably killed by the dagger, yet I couldn't see which one, my vision was a little blurred, but as soon as I get it back I can see it clearly once again.

— Tsk...

So I killed one of them, when I look again in the direction they were going, one of them had run away, my dagger took hold of the forehead of what had already been hit before.

— This will teach you not to be distracted during a battle anymore, it could have been defeated — says Lucio.

— But a goblin using magic is something quite rare, he ended up just having a lot of bad luck. — Chloe then says.

They both come out of the bushes and walk towards me.

— Status — I speak.

By looking at my status I can see that I got twenty points of damage, my HP was now at one hundred and thirty.

— Twenty points of damage... — I speak going towards the defeated goblin.

— The fireball magic is low level, it gives the damage of your magic attack basically, your magic defense protected you from a greater damage. — Lucio speaks.

With this information I can calculate, the goblin from before had forty of magic attack, since I have twenty of magic defense.

— It got distracted because it managed to understand what they were saying, right? — Says Chloe.

— Yes, it was all of a sudden, so I ended up being surprised by that.

— This is a unique ability of vampires, we gather information from targets when we drink blood, they also say we absorb the strength of targets, but this is noticeable only to those compulsive suckers. — It trembles as if it feels a chill remembering something. — We usually learn languages and such, but it's a matter of luck.

After defeating this goblin he now had four hundred and twenty of xp, three hundred of the rabbits from before and one hundred and twenty of the goblin.

— So, how about we go hunting? Get you up to the level soon — says Lucio.

The three of us spent another five hours hunting, in that time I was able to hunt:

~○~○~○~○~○~○~

15 rabbits = 450 xp

3 goblins (level 1) = 180 xp

2 goblins (level 2) = 240 xp

~○~○~○~○~○~○~

Every level one goblin slaughtered by someone without the xp boost will give 40 of xp, they are considered the same thing as two rabbits, when he thinks about it feels a bit sorry.

~○~○~○~○~○~○~

Currently: 1290 xp

For the next level: 710 xp

~○~○~○~○~○~○~

— Those last ones you'll have to hunt without our help. — Lucio speaks.

— This is a ritual among us vampires. — Chloe complete.

— Help from you? Every time we get close to something you're pus.h.i.+ng me up and saying "Good luck", what kind of help is that? — I answer by showing all my irritation.

— Don't focus on these little details, you'll end up getting old — says Lucio.

— But vampires don't get old — answers Chloe.

— It's just a way of speaking — Lucio says, placing his hand on his face.

At this moment I have a deep-hearted thought, "Probably it's that idiot G.o.d's fault, he's cursing me, there's no other explanation".

— So, we're going. — Lucio looks around.

— Try not to die — says Chloe.

— After pa.s.sing the level, try to find the vampire Kingdom alone, it's part of the tradition. — The two of them disappear soon after, their speed wasn't something that a newcomer could keep up with.

I really felt that both of them were annoying, but I'm also sad to see them go, how long has it been since I've had such relaxed conversations? I don't even remember...
