Adventures Of A Goblin

Chapter 111 To Make Him Proud

Dana and Nadea wandered far away from the group they came with, searching for a different monster from the one they were permitted to face.

They roamed off in search of stronger monsters, finding themselves going deeper and deeper, slowly losing the sight of the group they had come with, but this did not bother them at all.

Their judgment and thoughts have been clouded with the expectations of wanting to meet with a monster that is not a rabbit, even going so far as to climb down the stairs they had encounterd on their search for monsters, not minding what lies beneath it.

"Dana, you were right, sneaking out of there really is fun....."

"you want to know what's going to be even more fun"

"what....."

"fighting a monster. I am going to show you all the moves my grandfather taught me, and how I will use it to bring down a monster".

"I have seen your moves Dana, remember when you were in a duel with Ruben".

"ha....., you call that seeing my moves?...., I was going really easy on Ruben you know. If I were to defeat him quickly, that will bruise that ego of his".

"you just wait till we come into contact with a real monster, and I will show you just how fancy and strong my move is".

Dana said, bragging heavily to Nadea.

They were down the stairs after a long walk, and found themselves in a gloomy solemn cave, devoid of light and only being brightened up by the shadows collected from the floor above trailing down the stairs.

Dana and Nadea walked around, chattering happily with their faces plastered with excitement at the thoughts of coming into contact with a monster.

Dana especially was more eager than any of her classmates ever were about this dungeon exploration. This is her chance to show her grandfather just how much she has improved, to show him that his teachings on her is being put to a good use.

Disappointing him wasn't in her to do list, but rather to make him proud. And she can only do that by killing a monster that is not a rabbit.

Her reasons for not listening to Dexter's sermon, is because she wants to present to her grandfather whatever monster she kills. Presenting a rabbit as her first Kill, isn't exactly praiseworthy material enough for her.

"!!!"

"wait".

Dana stretched out her hand backwards and whispered, signifying for Nadea to stop moving.

"did you hear that...."

"hear what....."

"it sounded like footsteps".

"I did not hear anything".

Dana and Nadea halted whatever sounds they were making and paid close listening hears to their surroundings.

"I still hear nothing Dana".

Nadea said after listening attentively on behalf of Dana's.

"i was sure I heard the sound of the footstep".

"maybe you heard wrong".

The girls after paying close attentive earing to their surroundings, heard nothing and so decided to continue on their path.

"!!!!"

They had not moved very far when they both heard the stomping sound, this time much louder, enough for even Nadea to pick up on it.ραпdα `nᴏνɐ| сom

"you did hear that right?, I was not the only one right....."

"yes I did, I heard it. But where do you think it is coming from".

The cave they were in was extremely wide, enough for their vision to not be able to cover the whole distance.

"do not move and just stay right beside me. First rule of facing a monster in its territory is to stick together with my teammates, so as to not allow ourselves be picked off one at a time by the monsters".

"that is what grandpa taught me. Nadea, do not move unless I move okay".

Nadea nodded at the words of Dana and hurriedly positioned herself an inch away from her.

Nadea's back meeting with Dana's back, they each observed for any movements in front of them.

Dana held unto her wooden double sword, stretched it out in front of her, and ready to strike when needed. As for Nadea, she had her wooden sword held with both hands, also ready to respond to any sudden movements.

"!!!!".

The sound of the footstep got louder, spreading in all sides as it approaches the two girls who have themselves on edge.

Stomping down Like a rock being thrown to a wall, the two girls knew that an ordinary monster could not project out a footstep sound of that caliber, and figured it had to be from something big and hard.

Dana's face got wider with excitement at the thought of finally getting the chance to prove herself.

She know that whatever it was that was making a sound like that, is something that would be worthy enough to show how stronger she had become to her grandfather, but she was wrong.

Dana's desire to make her grandfather proud is one deserving of praise, but at the same time can be considered immature and totally irrational.

She has trained under him ever since she learned to work and understood words, enrolled in the school of adventurer and became the top one student in no time.

No matter what activities she was placed in, she always shined brightly, showing a side of her that excudes child perfection.

Despite her young age, she has shown praise worthy talents, and demonstrated a state of mind rationalization unbelonging to a child, to the point that people began to praise her as a genius, and even her classmates looked up to her highly, with the exception of Ruben who considers her as his rival.

The pride and praises that comes with being regarded as a genius by her grandfather and those around her, has gone too deep into her head to make her realize that training isn't all there is in a combat.

Going up against a monster who has spent its whole life only knowing struggle, death, survival. With just combat training taught to her by her grandfather in a sheltered home, is nothing but a blissful ignorance.

An act off ignorance she never thought about or accounted for, has now come in the form of a monster to bite back at her.

The monster that was making the footstep sound was now closer to them, enough for them to see what form its in, overshadowing her figure by several folds.

Dana's body shivered at the monster that had appeared in her front, her body started producing out sweats lingering from her face down to her toes.

She had no control over her body as a force that could not be seen with the physical eye pressed her down to the floor kneeling.

Dana's body trembling, causes her hold on her wooden sword to falter and drop. She managed to raise her hands up, using it to cover her mouth as she tries to purge out whatever was troubling her stomach.

Her vision getting all blurry, and her thoughts all scrambled up, not even having the mentality to tell the difference between a what and a why.

Nadea as well was in no different condition from Dana as she unknowingly found herself crouching on the floor, grasping for air.

The monster stood tall before Dana and Nadea who were cowering themselves in fear, looking at the reaction of the girls, it swung his hand down at them, wanting to smash their figure in with the ground.

"pow!!".

"sigh...., what the hell are you kids doing down here?".
