Chapter 129

“When are we getting back?” Asked Laura.

“Erm, I don’t know, in a couple of hours, maybe in a day or two,” I said.

“What are goblins like?” Asked Takeshi.

“Right… You’ve never seen them before, have you?” I sighed.

After the meal, it had been almost half a day since we had continued our journey back to the goblin village. The place is mostly peaceful, the road is mostly unscathed and filled with nature, and the breeze is nice and relaxing, coupled with the lovely and warm sun. You can’t ask for anything better.

But that’s not all! There is also the relaxing feeling of simply sitting over the caravan and being carried by the horses while you see the beautiful scenery…

But of course, children are hyperactive and probably are bored by now, so in order to quench their thirst for attention, I talked with them about stuff in order to entertain them. But quite honestly, I don’t wanna… I wanna chill!

But they don’t let me, and they’re so cute! *Sigh*… okay, I will talk to them.

“Erm… Lucifer knows more about them; he has a title about goblins,” I said.

“Eh?! Me?” He asked.

He was also mostly relaxing and chilling while looking at the scenery.

Meanwhile, Emeraldine was taking another nap, and Partner was practicing blood magic in silence while playing around with tiny blood familiar she created in the shape of a bat.

“You do?” Asked Laura.

“Uncle Lucifer, tell us about goblins!” Shouted Takeshi.

Lucifer sighed as he looked at the two kids with a grumpy face. He really didn’t want to talk about anything, he just wanted to chill out or something, but I wasn’t letting him, hehehehehe…

“Ugh… Fine. Goblins are green-skinned little people. They’re hard workers but usually weak, almost as weak as humans. But they make up for it with numbers, flexibility, and a better understanding of nature. They’re innate survivors… it shows in how they had been surviving in the wild for so long,” Said Lucifer.

“They’re green and have big noses, well, some of them,” Added Partner.

“And their ears are pointy,” I said.

“Like Elves?” Asked Laura.

“Yeah, they’re not ugly, but not the prettiest race either,” I said.

“Ooh… they’re interesting! Are they of our size?” Wondered Takeshi.

“I would say so, maybe a bit smaller depending on how tall you guys really are… you will naturally outgrow them if you keep growing like normal people… but you’re clearly not normal people, so I don’t know how your growth will go about,” I said.

“I see! Well, I can’t wait to meet them! I am happy that we can finally go to a place where we can finally belong… maybe they can welcome us?” Asked Takeshi.

“For sure, Goblins are very welcoming of other races. They’re one of the most open-minded races. It is not a cultural thing. It seems to be in their very natures… And this is why many villages had also perished to the humans. They get tricked easily….” Sighed Lucifer.

“But our village is doing super fine! Nothing too bad had happened, although some adventurers had tried to come looking for them, but my Undead hunted them down and converted them into Undead by biting them, like a zombie disease from movies!” I laughed.

“W-Wow, that’s an actual thing?” Asked Laura.

“Of course! Hehehe,” I laughed maliciously.

“That’s a bit scary… Grape…” Sighed Takeshi as he hugged his snake pet, which was secretly me.

“Gryyyssshh…” I pretended to be a snake as I licked Takeshi’s cheek.

He became happy and petted me.

Being a pet is not easy. It comes with many difficulties, and one of them is having to act like an animal.

“Don’t worry about it, these zombies are pretty friendly and good people, you just have to greet them and say “hello!” and they’ll even say hello back! …Well, sometimes, not all the time, though,” I said.

“O-Oh… Getting used to Undead will be hard…” Muttered Laura.

“Well, I am an Undead… Partner too. And Lucifer!” I said.

“But even then, it will be hard to do it with… Erm, other Undead,” Said Takeshi.

“Yeah, but that will be the fun part, you’ll have to try hard to become their friends, but it will bring you a lot of joy in the long run, because they’re so nice and amicable! You gotta just meet them, and you’ll see!” I said.

“Well, even if you end up disliking them, you can always just ignore them. The Goblin people are nice and gentle, there are many kids with them too, and they’re all unique and entertaining. So you can have a lot of fun playing them… They’re also hunters, crafters, and more. From a young age, the goblin is taught many things to survive. Ah, there are also a lot of former slaves with them too, so there’s a variety of humans, elves, dwarves, and more,” Said Lucifer.

“W-Wow! It sounds like a lot of fun….” Said Takeshi.

“Can’t wait to get there…” Muttered Laura.

“You’re making them even more impatient… Ah, how about some ice cream? It’s rather hot,” I said.

“Ice cream!”

The two kids rushed at me as if they were waiting for it all this time.

I took out some pots with ice cream and shared it with them, but Lucifer, Partner, and Emeraldine, who just woke up, also asked for it.

“Surprising coming from you. I thought you disliked sweets!” I said, looking at Lucifer.

“I dislike the majority, but… this thing is good. The flavor… creaminess… I-It’s all good,” He muttered.

“Hehe, I see, so you’ve grown weak against ice cream, haven’t you?” I asked with a cheeky smile.

“I am not weak against ice cream! I just like it,” He said while blushing.

He seemed to be as tsundere as ever. He never changes.

“I am not weak against ice cream! I just like it,” He repeated while blushing again.

Suddenly, I came out with a malefic plan to tease this old dragon even more than before. Hehe…

“If you like it so much, you can eat some here,” I said, as I pointed him my spoon.

“H-Huh? W-What are you doing? T-That’s…”
