Chapter 25 [Bonus ] Slaughtering Goblins
When the goblins at the front who were nearest to Keith and Sherry were hesitating whether to attack the two lovers or not, they heard the shrills of encouragement from their compatriots!
"Khiiekk!"
"Khukuku!"
A horde of goblins spewed out from the dimensional gate.
The advantage of numbers gave the goblins at the front the confidence to attack Keith and Sherry!
Fearlessly charging toward Keith and Sherry with a wooden club in their hand, the sheer number of the horde of goblins was enough to make most humans feel despair!
On the contrary, Keith and Sherry didn't retreat or advance. They stood in the same spot, not because of fear but because they were confident that they could deal with them.
When the goblins reached five meters near Sherry, she took out a knife that she had hidden on her skirt. The knife looked exquisite and well-crafted and it even had a scabbard of its own.
Unsheathing the knife from its scabbard, Sherry gripped the knife tightly in her right hand. She waited for the goblins to reach her attack range.
"Keith, don't tell me you haven't prepared for a goblin invasion?"
Noticing that Keith wasn't taking out any of his weapons, Sherry joked with him amidst the bloodthirsty goblins that were heading toward them.
"Who would expect a portal to appear out of nowhere? If I had known, I would have dispatched the entire military force of this country."
Keith lightly joked as he put on a fighting stance. Taking out a pair of golden knuckles hidden in his shirt, he wore it and used it as his weapon.
Although Keith could store any items in his system storage, it would still attract Sherry's suspicion if he obtained a skill before the Mana Awakening event.
With that in mind, Keith didn't prepare any weapons aside from his usual weapon set stored in his clothes.
The short conversation between Keith and Sherry ended as a group of goblins attacked the two of them. Judging from the number of the horde, it was approximately a hundred and the numbers kept on rising.
Before the goblins could even raise their wooden club and bash it toward Sherry, Sherry decapitated all of the goblins that entered within her attack range. Judging from her swift and precise slashes, she was experienced in decapitating and killing.
The blood of the goblins stained Sherry's knife but only a few droplets of blood managed to stain her clothes. A crazed and manic expression was shown on her face as she slaughtered the goblins without any hesitation.
If it was the average man, they would find it unusual that their girlfriend was a professional in killing, but Keith was glad that his girlfriend wasn't weak.
'Only a girl who is not only beautiful but is also powerful and smart is worthy to become my bride! Of course, she also needs to be loyal and trustworthy and it just so happened that Sherry fits all of my requirements.'
'As expected! My vision and instinct when it comes to choosing the right course of action have yet to fail!'
Keith didn't want a burden as his girlfriend since as someone who was destined for greatness, he would have a lot of enemies. He didn't want a girlfriend who would either betray him or burden him in times of peril.
With that thought in mind, Keith admired Sherry for a split second before he started slaughtering the goblins who had eyes yet failed to see Mt. Everest.
When a goblin aggressively approached him with a wooden club in its hand, Keith punched their heads causing them to break and shatter. His hand was covered in blood and brain matter but he didn't flinch nor cared as he continued his slaughter.
Kicking a goblin on its neck, its neck snapped and its head was limply hanging on its neck.
Not only Keith wore a pair of golden knuckles but the sole of his shoes was metal plated. Because of that, each of his kicks fractured the fragile bones of the goblins.
Keith had noticed that the strength of the goblins was as strong as an adult male and it was all due to their body that was influenced by mana. But the mana could only reinforce the goblin's strength but not their endurance and vitality which led to them having a body that was slightly stronger than a child's.
Although the number of goblins was being reduced due to Sherry and Keith's efforts, they still couldn't keep up with the number of goblins that were exiting the dimensional gate. Whenever they kill two goblins, at least three would exit the dimensional gate.
Knowing that fact, Keith took out his smart car key and pressed a certain button.
-Bang! -Bang!
-Bang! -Bang!
After pressing the button on his smart car key, several gunshots from sniper rifles were heard as the bullets penetrated through the heads of the goblins.
All of the shots were accurate and with the support from Keith's sniper team, the number of goblins was drastically reduced.
