Requiem Of A Failed Hero

Chapter 50 The Goblin Massacre (2)



Like a madman, Raith ran forward–

His fist plummeted into the hobgoblin's head and came out from behind.

Raith's jaw dropped, even he was surprised at this level of strength. He removed his fist from the monster's head and was dazed at the hole he had created there.

He looked at the monster as it dropped to the floor, lifeless.

Then he turned his head back to the goblin king... with a smile.

You know the rest of the story.

Okay, just to be sure we are on the same page—Raith dashed into the crowd of goblins.

This time his strategy was even more horrifying. He punched and kick and punched and punched and punched... there were more punches than kicks.

Every single fist he threw decapitated the goblins and he went on till he could go on no more.

[Your stamina is low]

[You are fatigued]

Raith bent and rested on his knee, panting. Two of the hobgoblin leaped from the throne altar where they and the goblin king stood. Landing gallantly in front of Raith, they began to circle him.

And as one moved–

'Black Armor'

Thud!

Just like the sound of their heavy landing, so was the sound that rang through the cave as the hobgoblin's fist collided with Raith's chest.

Raith was standing at one point even though he was tired.

'Shit... his blow is packed...'

Raith broke a sweat as he stood his ground using every bit of his last strength. He grabbed the hobgoblin's hand and forcefully turned it–turning the hobgoblin's shoulder like that.

Gbam!!

He smashed a blow into the hobgoblin's chest–the monster's body bounced on the floor, it coughed up blood, and even seemed to be having a hard time coughing because Raith's fist had completely destroyed its lungs.

Raith walked forward and raised one leg as if he was about to start a brigade march. Then while looking into the eyes of the second hobgoblin, he thrust his foot into the monster's head, smashing it on the ground.

"I am sorry... my leg slipped."

It didn't matter if the monsters understood him or not, it is clear he was trying to taunt them.

[Passive Skill 'Intimidation' has been activated]

[Target has been stricken with 'Fear']

The last hobgoblin began to shakily move backward, as Raith moved forward to it—it turned its back and made a run for the broken door.

Swish

A thin curve line swiftly swept past the hobgoblin's neck.

"Never show your back to your enemy"

Raith helped with its last statement as it fell on its chest. He spun the dagger skillfully and turned to the goblin king, pointing the dagger at it.

"You're next."

UWEIGHK!!

The last hobgoblin beside the goblin king groaned something and began to breathe angrily, it was the closest one in size to the king... and judging by that alone Raith could tell it was the strongest of the four.

The hobgoblin leaped with a clenched fist into where Raith was standing.

'I'm tired'

He dealt with it the easy way.

Raith caught the hobgoblin by its neck.

'Lavaration'

The monster's neck began to melt immediately.

That left only the goblin kind to deal with. The goblin king stood up and began tearing the ornament away from its neck. It didn't throw them away but rather walked forward to Raith.

Both of them stood against each other and with how tall Raith was the goblin king was still taller, almost looking like an orc but could be distinguished by its long ears and nose.

THUD

The monster slammed both knees to the ground and offered the ornaments to Raith with both hands, bowing its head.

'Eh? Is it begging for its life?'

Raith was dazed, this was the first time he had seen or heard of something like this.

[You have achieved an impossible feat]

[You have gained a new title 'The Revered']

> Title effect: When you completely, overwhelmingly, 100% overpower a monster, it will respect and bow to you. You can do as you deem fit with the monster.

"Oooh Oooooh, so cool."

Raith chuckled brightly at the message that appeared in his front.

Suddenly his stomach began to grumble.

[Passive skill 'Devourer' has been activated]

[You have the tendency to devour anything]

'While I'm alive?!'

Right before his eyes, he saw his stomach stretch forth, shifting colors and properties to a black and swiftly swallowing the goblin king. It was as swift as when a frog sticks out its tongue to eat an insect.

Raith's jaw dropped. It was brief but he saw it and began to doubt his humanity.

"Am I really human?"

[You have swallowed a living creature]

[What do we make of this?]

[The abyss slowly begins to question your origin]

[The Living Creature has been converted to a shadow ego]

[Shadow ego has been stored in 'Stomach: 3/3']

[The body of the creature exists in the abyss]

"It didn't give me any stats?"

Raith looked like he was about to cry.

But his face brightened up as a blue gate appeared in front of him.

"My ticket out of here!"

Raith happily ran forward and into the gate.

(Ailgard - Human Dimension, otherwise known to the natives as Earth)

Few men could be seen on clusters in an abandoned construction sight, they wore modern attires, but strapped to these attires were parts of armors, while one chose vambraces, another chose breastplate which was common among these men that stood. One of them was even fully cladded in a heavy armor, the way his neck and small head snuck out of the armor showed that he head a small stature and was probably struggling to carry all that sparkling weight.

With a buzz cut and a bright round eyes, he stood in front of the man in black suit and black shades that looked down at him and collected his license card.

"Name, Baek Min-ho. B rank?"

The man in black suit looked at the boy that stood in front with disbelief.

'A B rank? He doesn't even look like he's eighteen yet.'
