After the wolf’s death, I went to drink its blood and then eat its flesh together with my subordinate.

After lunch ended, we headed into the forest towards the Goblin hunting area, after another ten minutes we arrived and found footprint trails that show small humanoid footprints, they must be Goblin footprints, this shows that Goblins often pass through on here.
I thought for a while and decided to hide with my subordinate to wait for a Goblin to attack with an ambush.
We waited a little more than fifteen minutes before seeing two Goblins with big branches in their hands approaching, I told my subordinate to attack with her sword the one who will pass closer to the bush we are hiding in, I used [ Weak poison secretion: 3 ] in her sword and I told her to stab him in the head with all her might as soon as I attack the other one.
“If… prepare” (me)
“Yes” (Subordinate Goblin)
Once they reached the point in front of us I used [ Jump: 3 ] to jump over the closest one and go straight to the one that is farthest away, as soon as I landed on its head I use [ Low Leech Bite: 5 ] to open a hole in your skull.
“GIII AHHHHH GIGGIGIIII” (Goblin A)
“Attack gigg gii kill” (Goblin B)
The Goblin B that I jumped over noticed his friend’s scream and turned to me with his back to the bush to attack me, but at that moment my subordinate stuck the poisoned sword in the back of his head, he couldn’t even scream before of falling to the ground and dying.
Ding!
<[ You gained 4 EXP for killing Goblin by party member ]>
Then my subordinate dropped her sword and ran to grab the arms of the Goblin I was attacking while I used it twice [ Corrosion: 2 ] on his brain.
Ding!

We managed to kill them quickly, looks like the ambush was successful, after drinking all their blood I drag them both behind the bush we’re hiding in before meditating to replenish my energy while we wait for another Goblin group to pass by. here since we vamosre going to be here the rest of the day ambushing all the Goblins we see.
Glub! Glub! Glub!
Ding!
<[ Your bloodline has become stronger and purer [ Goblin: 36% > 59% ] ]>
After integrating my level and replenishing my energy, we waited almost two hours while we talked to pass the time until my subordinate told me that the Goblins eat their dead, which gave me an idea.
I go to the corpses and use [ Weak paralyzing poison secretion: 4 ] seven times on each body and drag them to the trail, leave them both right where they died, and keep waiting.
After another hour of waiting and talking to my subordinate, I finally hear a scream and use [ Detect weak presence: 2 ], I can feel five responses from approaching creatures, as soon as they get close enough I can see that there are four Goblins and they are dragging two humanoid creatures with black fur all over their bodies and a dog’s head, soon a name comes to mind, the name of this creature must be Kobold.
Seeing that they are still alive and being dragged by Goblins, it’s easy to assume they must be females and are being taken to be used to breed more Goblin children, now that they’re closer I see they’re very wounded and weak and the Goblins have wounds too by the body, this only makes them easier to kill.
“Gigii female my today gii” (Goblin A)
“Gi gi gi gi divers today gigigi” (Goblin B)
“Look gig igii food” (Goblin C)
“Gii gig food our gi eat now” (Goblin D)
As soon as they saw the bodies they started running to eat the bodies, they didn’t mind eating their race apparently, they ate so voraciously and so wildly and quickly that thankfully they didn’t seem to notice the poison.
When the bodies had been torn apart unrecognizably, the two who ate faster were no longer able to move, the third had noticed that something was wrong and had stopped eating but it was too late, he had eaten a lot of poisoned meat and was getting moving so slowly that it would be easy to get rid of it later.
The fourth Goblin surprised me, he was still eating and the poison didn’t seem to affect him, it must be the work of a resistance skill, as it wasn’t working I jumped on it and used [Leech Bite: 5] on one of his eyes and then I also used [ Corrosion: 2 ] to dissolve his brain.
Ding!
<[ You gained 7 EXP from killing Goblin ]>
Then I talk to my subordinate to use the sword and take a leg off each Goblin, then I use [Low Fire Puff: 3] twice to kill a second Goblin, then go to the third and use [Fire Puff twice weaker: 3] to kill him, in the last Goblin I use [Weak Leech Bite: 5] three times on his head to kill him.
Ding! Ding! Ding!
<[ You gained 21 EXP from killing three Goblins ]>
.
<[ Party member gains 10 EXP for Goblin kills ]>
.
.
<[ You have leveled up ]>
Now, all that’s left is the two Kobolds, I go towards you and talk to my subordinate to stab your barrels and then I kill them by sucking the blood from their bodies until it’s dry.
Glub! Glub! Glub!
Ding! Ding! Ding!
<[ You gained 14 EXP from killing two Kobolds ]>

“(Now all that’s left is to suck the blood of the other four Goblins and then get out of here, and look for another place to ambush)” (me)
As I head towards the four Goblin corpses I notice that my subordinate is paying attention to her surroundings instead of eating, she must be worried that we will be attacked by surprise just like yesterday, which is all the more reason for me to be quick and finish draining and drinking all the stuff. blood of these four Goblins.
Glub! Glub! Glub!
Ding! Ding! Ding!

<[ Your bloodline has become stronger and purer [ Goblin: 36% > 89% ] ]>
I’m going to eat some Kobold meat and then go to another spot to make another ambush.
Shock! Nhac!
Ding!
<[ You learned the following skills from Kobold:
• [ Group coordination: 1 ]
• [ Low wind elemental affinity: 1 ] ]>
Now I’ll take my subordinate with me for one last hunt before we head back, I’ll set up another ambush somewhere else on the trail.
After carrying one of the Goblins we killed before it’s still full of crippling poison to another point on the trail, I’ll hide while I meditate to regain my STM and MP as quickly as possible.
After restoring half of my energy I am forced to stop the meditation, my subordinate tells me that three more Goblins are approaching, after waiting two more minutes they arrived at our bait, I wait for them to eat.
Nhoc! Nhac! Shock! Nhac!
After a few minutes of eating everyone is paralyzed, it seems that this time there was no one with resistance to paralysis among them.
“Rip off….leg” (me)
“Gii yes gig master” (Goblin subordinate)
She follows all my orders without hesitation, and after seeing so many Goblins I can tell that my subordinate is different from them, she is smarter and faster than them.
After she dismembered her legs I go to them and use them three times on each [Weak Poison Secretion: 3] to kill them, as soon as they are all dead I will drink her blood.
Ding! Ding!
<[ Your skill leveled up [ Weak Poison Secretion: 3 > 4 ] ]>

After that I asked her to bring one of the corpses while I took another one to go back to my temporary base, it’s already mid-afternoon and I would like to get back before nightfall, it should take about an hour and twenty minutes for us to get back.
——–
Once we arrived at our base we rested a bit, the day was very good for both me and my subordinate.
Before going to sleep I will train a little, but for now, I will rest to relax and be ready at the time of my training.
As I rest I stare at the sky through the hole in the ceiling, the bright sky slowly changing its color to become a beautiful starry sky, soon I get caught up in my thoughts, I keep thinking about my old world and my current world.
“(So many things to think about.)” (me)
“(About where to go from here? What should there be after the forest? What should there be after the mountains? What is this temple in ruins? What to do with this follower? What else awaits me in this world? How many dangers will I have to face?” to face?)” (me)
“(Unfortunately I can’t do anything other than what I’ve done so far, which is to save these questions for when I’m strong enough to figure out the answers for myself.)” (me)
