Human King

Chapter 172: Calm

When the decision to conquer this place was made by the king, the goblins...quickly prepared for it.

After all, the place where they were at would be the place where they would stand their ground.

It's not like they could just conquer this place in just a single night.

There were hidden monsters and strong monsters that would hinder their path.

That was why the goblins had to establish their foundation right off the bat when they were still not under attack.

Of course, they did that by expanding their territory. Although they only had 50 normal goblins as their workforce, it was enough.

All of the normal goblins were spread out in every direction for as far as they could, and they were teamed up in 5.

One of the goblins would then act as the eyes, and three of the goblins would act as the guard.

The last goblin would then act as the communication bridge between that point back to the home base of the goblins so that they could respond even better.

Although this risks the safety of the goblins, it was fine, even for Dawn.

After all, it's not like they could just conquer this place without any casualties or deaths.

In fact, it was rather ambitious of Dawn to think that he could conquer this place with just 50 goblins.

Well, he had the right to be ambitious. He had Oz and Moris near him, and he himself was stronger than most of the monsters.

It was the truth that with just the three of them, they could probably destroy this place.

However, destroy and conquer are two different things. Conquer is governing this land and acting as the lord.

Dawn didn't want to destroy this place too much so that he would have a safe place whenever things would go wrong for him and his village that he left.

Besides, there would strong monsters as well. Even if Oz was the Great King of the Jungle, there might be another Great King of the Jungle.

It is because no one knows that Dawn was taking precautions about these things.

Anyway, the goblins were able to form a net and be able to have a connection with the center, which is near Oz.

Well, Oz was the center of this formation, and that was because Dawn was here.

Except for Dawn who was just chilling near Oz, there were also goblins here.

The goblins staying here were Moris, the little goblin, Una, and Didi.

All of the normal goblins were the ones consisting of the net formation right now.

They didn't need anyone to lead them as they only have one instruction.

And that was to report back to the center whenever they find a monster coming here.

It was a simple method, but it was effective as hell.

That was why Dawn right now was just chilling with Oz. He was just laying down on the ground near Oz.

After all, he didn't have anything to do, and there was nothing to do as well.

They were just literally waiting for the monsters to come and attack them.

Dawn also asked the little goblin about how long it would take the monsters to come here.

However, the little goblin didn't know too much about that. After all, it's not like he knows everything there is to know about here.

Just the fact that he was able to tell Dawn and the other goblins that they would soon be besieged with monsters was already a great help.

What's more, that could possibly save a goblin's life. After all, they would be prepared for it now.

Even if they were full of strong monsters, being prepared and not prepared are two different things.

That was why Dawn was still thankful that the little goblin knew about these things.

He also wondered about how the little goblin knew about it, but he didn't ask.

After all, Dawn didn't have to know about that. He just had to know whether the monsters would come or not]

And it seems like the little goblin was right as Dawn could feel the ground rumbling now.

Right, Dawn could feel the ground rumbling and shaking as he just laid down near Oz.

It was kind of pointless for the goblins to spread out as much as possible when Dawn could just feel it with his bare skin.

However, there was a reason why Dawn still made them do it.

It would be an accurate way of telling whether the enemies would be near or not.

And since none of the normal goblins are trying to get back to the center of the place, the source of the rumbling was still very far.

"Hmm...Moris." Dawn said as he looked at the sky.

It was a sunny day with no signs of rain. It seems like the heavens have blessed this day.

Of course, Dawn didn't care about that at all as he just waited for Moris to appear right in front of him.

Well, it wouldn't be right in front of him, but near him.

Of course, Moris was able to hear when Dawn called him, and that was why he was kneeling right now as he spoke.

"Yes, Your Highness?" Moris said as he lowered his head.

He didn't know why he was called upon, but he had a general guess about it.

After all, Moris, too, could feel the rumbling and shaking of the ground with just his senses.

It was only natural that he would be able to feel it as he was still stronger than Dawn.

It was then that Dawn spoke as he just kept his eyes looking at the sky.

"Go check them out. You don't have to kill them or something like that."

"Ah, make sure that none of the goblins would die."

Dawn said as he remembered that Moris was a goblin who was specialized in healing.

And since he was specialized in healing, Dawn thought to take advantage of that.

Of course, since Dawn gave permission for Moris to use it, Moris would use it to anyone that might receive some injury in this battle.

Well, it would be an honor for the goblins to be healed by Moris as Moris is the only goblin who could heal others.

And Moris...well, he was more focused on the king rather than the other goblins.

And that was why it would be an honor for the other goblins. After all, Moris was the personal healer of the king.

Although that was just because Moris was the only goblin who could heal others, it doesn't matter to the simple-minded goblins.

And Moris knew that very well, which is why he spoke.

"Yes, Your Highness. I will do my best to heal the normal goblins."

It was then that Moris disappeared as he went on to fulfill the task given to him.

Of course, Dawn could tell that Moris disappeared now without even turning his head to confirm it.

Dawn just stared straight at the sky with his blackish eyes. It seems that the sun was not hurting his eyes.

Well, his eyes were just floating around. It seems that Dawn was thinking of something.

And that was...

---Hmm...why do the little goblin remind me of someone?

Right, Dawn was somehow familiar with the little goblin. He thought that there was someone who the little goblin reminds him of.

However, Dawn didn't know who exactly that someone was.

And it was bugging Dawn. After all, the little goblin was that special.

And since Dawn was remembering someone with the little goblin's act and looks, Dawn wanted to know who it was.

After all, that someone would probably also be a special goblin.

It would leave a mark in Dawn's memory, and Dawn would be able to easily remember who it was.

However, no matter how much Dawn thought about it, he couldn't tell who it was.

It was weird as hell, and it was getting into Dawn's nerves.

Well, it's not like there was something Dawn could do about it.

After all, it was in his memory. It's not like he could force his brain to suddenly remember it.

It's not like he could take a cruise down his memories to try and force himself to remember who it was.

If Dawn could do that, he wouldn't be a goblin anymore. He would be a god.

---Hmmm...I guess it's fine.

Dawn thought as he whipped his head in Oz's direction.

Of course, the Lion Tiger was just sleeping soundly as if the rumbling didn't matter to him at all.

Dawn then moved his body to get a little bit close to Oz, and let his head rest in Oz's humongous body.

And as soon as he did that, Dawn...yawned.

"Ahhh~"

This kind of attitude...it was as if Dawn was sure now that they would win.

It was as if there were no enemies around him, and it was truly an arrogant attitude.

However, Dawn had the right to be this way. After all, Dawn could feel that there was no strong monster with the ones attacking them.

That was why he could be this laidback.

And it was in this way that Dawn rested a little bit.
