Goblin Reincarnation in Another World (Anime/Manga)

Page 5

Although Joel is very beautiful, she doesn't seem to be very bright when it comes to anything other than assassination. She needs Niu Zida to explain it to her before she can understand his tactical arrangements.

Despite feeling nauseous, Joel smeared the blood of the dead goblin on her body, then activated stealth mode to completely conceal her presence. As she moved forward, even when passing by the ambushing goblins, they did not notice her.

Joel silently dispatched several more groups of goblins on the road ahead, his movements so swift that the goblins didn't even have time to scream.

The goblins had originally hoped to use the darkness of the cave as cover to ambush Yor and Niu Zida, but now they found themselves in their own cave, becoming easy prey for the enemy. What's even more terrifying is that the enemy can approach them silently, like a ghost floating in the cave, ready to wipe out other goblins at any time.

Before long, panic spread through the goblin cave. The goblins in the cave only knew that their people were dying one after another, but they had no idea where the people killing them were. Later, Niu Zida even deliberately made Yor kill them slower, creating screams to demoralize the other goblins in the cave.

Fear, like a virus, spread among the goblins in the cave. Hearing the screams of their companions, the dark cave seemed to be haunted by death. The cave, once their home ground, had become their graveyard. The remaining goblins threw down their weapons and scattered to escape, running deeper into the cave.

Niu Zida wanted this effect. He pinched Yoel's big snowball and ordered her to follow the fleeing goblins. The place these goblins were fleeing to was probably where the goblin chieftain lived, which should also be the safest place in the entire cave. Under the threat of death, any creature's instinct to survive would drive it to flee to the ideal safe place.

Following the chaotic footsteps, Yor quickly reached the depths of the cave, where a fire still burned. A tall chieftain was angrily berating the returning goblins, even killing one that had run to the front as a warning to others. The goblin shaman beside him jumped around, banging his staff on the ground, signaling the goblins to return to battle. But this only made the already frightened goblins more chaotic; after all, these were just ordinary goblin tribespeople, not rigorously trained soldiers.

“Aim at that goblin chieftain and finish him off.”

Chapter Eleven: Taming the Goblins

Chapter Eleven.

Upon seeing the leading goblin chieftain, Niu Zida squeezed Yor's large snowball and gave the order to exterminate him.

Without hesitation, Joel used his stealth ability to quickly approach the goblin chieftain. Before the chieftain could even cry out, Joel slit his throat with a single strike, ending his life.

The goblins, who had been in complete chaos just moments before, were stunned and stood frozen in place when they saw their chieftain spewing out a torrent of blood and collapsing before them.

After a brief silence, the goblins became even more chaotic. At this moment, Niu Zida quickly called Yor over, grabbed the short goblin shaman with one hand, and then held a kunai dagger to his throat.

"Order all goblins to stop resisting and come over here."

The goblin shaman was stunned to see that there was another person lying behind the beautiful woman who was threatening him, and when he peeked out, he was also a goblin.

"Hurry up, if you don't want to die."

Seeing that the other party was still unable to accept it, Niu Zida ordered the goblin shaman in an even more authoritative tone, while Yor had already pointed his kunai dagger at the goblin shaman's throat, ready to finish him off at any time.

"I see……"

To save his life, the goblin shaman quickly blew the whistle hanging around his neck. After blowing it several times, the goblins, who were running around like headless flies, gradually stopped. Seeing that no one was chasing them, they slowly gathered together. By the dim light of the campfire, Niu Zida counted that there were only twenty or thirty goblins.

"What about the rest?"

"I don't know either. Maybe they all ran away. The chief is dead, and there's nothing I can do about the many people who don't listen to my rules."

Seeing that Niu Zida seemed dissatisfied, the goblin shaman quickly tried to defend himself. Niu Zida snorted and pinched a handful of Yoel's large snowball. Yoel then threw the goblin shaman into the gathering goblin pile as if he were trash, causing the goblin shaman to let out a painful howl.

"I am the goblin leader of the entire valley and even the border region. From today onwards, no matter which tribe you belong to, you must submit to me and obey my commands, or this will be your fate."

Niu Zida pointed to the dead goblin chieftain on the ground, then simply sat astride Yor's snowy neck, his small eyes flashing with a fierce light as he surveyed the goblins below.

Because of their eusocial organizational structure based on blood ties, goblins can be very obedient to the overall command, especially the command of the highly intelligent leaders in the group. They are not only the pinnacle of intelligence and even strength, but are also often the overlords of a group of goblins based on blood ties. This dual rule makes small goblin groups relatively stable.

However, this organizational structure also brings problems. Once a goblin tribe loses its leader, it is difficult to maintain stability. Moreover, because it relies too much on blood ties to form a community, goblins have a strong reproductive ability but cannot form a more advanced organizational structure. They cannot even form a territory or a larger city-state, let alone a country.

This explains why, despite their perceived stupidity, goblins are slow to learn human civilization, not incapable of it. Having coexisted with humans for so long, they should have long since learned some human organizational structures, yet they have never been able to develop a goblin nation. Niu Zida's first step is to unify the different goblin communities, at least to ensure they are subject to an authority figure, even if that authority is initially established entirely through violence and terror.

The goblins below looked at each other, completely at a loss for what to do. Goblin tribes are formed based on blood ties, and unless they are from the same group, they would never unite, let alone have an outsider suddenly become the leader of the tribe.

Seeing the goblins below remain silent, Niu Zida didn't waste any words. He kicked Yoel's large snowball with the foot hanging on Yoel's shoulder. Yoel understood, raised his hand, and killed the nearest silent goblin. The bloody atmosphere intensified once more. Niu Zida coldly said:

"Kneel down and submit to me, or else this will happen. I'll give you three seconds, and I'll count to three."

"1...2..."

Before they could even count to three, the remaining twenty-odd goblins, under the goblin shaman's leadership, all knelt down in fear of such a bloody threat.

“Good. If you all obey, you can live and live a good life with me in the future. You won’t have to rely on robbing in this cave and not know where your next meal will come from.”

Niu Zida was too lazy to explain his grand plans to these goblins, so he simply used words they could understand to appease them temporarily. Of course, he also knew that these goblins could not truly submit to him now; they were only bullying him temporarily out of fear of bloodshed and terror. These goblins were just stupid, not dumb.

"Chief..."

"From now on, call me Lord. I'm not some chieftain..."

"Lord Lord..."

The goblin shaman quickly changed his address to this somewhat awkward title used only in the human world. As one of the few knowledgeable shamans among the goblins, he felt that this goblin who had suddenly come to the cave was strange. It was unheard of for a goblin to be able to command such a powerful and beautiful woman, speak in a manner that sounded very human, and even manage goblins in the manner of a human noble.

"Very good. Are there any other goblin tribes around here?"

Under Niu Zida's questioning, the goblin shaman told him that there were two other tribes nearby, both larger than his own and occupying better locations. Otherwise, they wouldn't have chosen to live in such a place near the human border, where they could be discovered and wiped out by various adventurers at any time.

"Wouldn't being close to humans make it easier for you to abduct women and reproduce more goblins?"

"This would make it easier to retaliate against humans, and since the human kingdoms are currently at war, there are hardly any humans left around here."

Unexpectedly, this goblin shaman was quite knowledgeable about the outside world; he was much smarter than I had thought.

"But how do the goblins who live further afield reproduce? Aren't they even less likely to find human women?"

"They are large enough to attack other human villages. A little further north there is a village where a church is being built, and there are still quite a few humans there."

The village where the church was built is probably the village where Aponia is located. Speaking of which, the bandits he had encountered before also had their eyes on that village. Aponia has really had a lot of troubles, Niu Zida thought to himself.

Chapter Twelve: Loyalty Test

Chapter Twelve.

After the goblin shaman further gathered the goblins in the entire lair, there were about thirty people left. Niu Zida didn't care where the rest went. He then ordered the goblin shaman to lead these people to attack the neighboring tribe under the cover of night.

At first, the goblins were unwilling, but under Niu Zida's threat, they proceeded together. When they reached the cave entrance of the neighboring goblin tribe, Niu Zida ordered the goblin shaman to lead his companions to provoke the neighboring tribe and lure them into battle.

Goblin communities generally do not fight each other. If their living space is squeezed, they will try to rely on the chieftain's coordination. Those with smaller forces will leave on their own. After all, goblins live on the margins of society and have long been suppressed by humans and even orcs. If they fight each other, it will further exacerbate the difficulty of their living space.

But this time, it was other goblins who took the initiative to challenge them, and it was only a group of twenty-odd ordinary goblins from a relatively weak tribe. So naturally, they couldn't be polite. A large group of goblins, led by their chief, rushed out to try and drive away the goblins from other tribes who had come to challenge them.

Just as they emerged from the cave and got into position, Yor, who had been hiding to the side, carrying Niu Zida, took advantage of the darkness and, just like in the cave before, killed the goblin chieftain like a ghost. He then left the goblin shaman behind to subdue the tribe and obtained a total of more than sixty goblins.

Of course, some would escape, but Niu Zida didn't care at all. After subduing these goblins, he went to the third tribe and did the same thing. In this way, after a night of fighting, he subdued three goblin tribes in succession, and obtained more than a hundred goblins in total.

The goblin chieftains of these three tribes were all mercilessly killed by Niu Zida, leaving only their goblin shamans. They stood with the goblins in the open space. In the distance, the sky was already beginning to lighten. In the deep, cold morning, the air was filled with the smell of goblin blood. Yoel himself couldn't remember how many goblins he had killed from the three tribes that night, but it was probably close to a hundred.

Having endured a night of bloodshed, and with the frigid weather, the goblins, led by the three goblin shamans, knelt and trembled. Niu Zida, perched on Yor's beautiful back, looked down at the temporarily subjugated goblins without saying a word, but instead kicked Yor's large snowball. Yor understood immediately and went up to kill the three goblin shamans in front of everyone with a single blow.

"Wow……"

Seeing the alluring, ghostly beauty begin killing again, the remaining goblins screamed in terror. But after a night of bloodshed, no one dared to chase them away, knowing they couldn't escape. They could only remain there like livestock, devoid of any will to resist, awaiting their fate of being slaughtered no matter how terrified they were.

After killing the three goblin shamans, Yor changed to a quadrupedal position, with his black-stockinged buttocks raised, like a dog crawling on the ground. He then stretched out his large hands and slapped Yor's black-stockinged buttocks in front of everyone.

The continuous slapping sound traveled out, echoing crisply in the air.

The goblins kneeling below, trembling in fear, were all stunned. They never expected that the beautiful woman, who had been like the Grim Reaper just moments before, would be so submissive to a goblin like Niu Zida. This was the first time they had ever seen goblins control humans in this way.

"Master...please spare me."

Joel crawled on the ground, her head tilted back, her beautiful eyes half-closed, and she couldn't help but let out a soft moan. Feeling the resounding slaps of her black-stockinged buttocks, she begged for mercy. Niu Zida then stopped, straddling Joel's slender waist as if riding a horse, and kicked her dangling breasts, signaling her to crawl towards the goblins.

"You now have only two choices: either obey me or be executed immediately. The choice is yours."

Goblins are a race that admires strength, especially after the death of the chief and shaman. When they lose their leadership, the goblins become restless. Only the strongest goblin can regain the ability to reproduce and become the leader again. The others in the group will suppress their impulses due to the pheromones and follow the new chief.

Niu Zida took advantage of this. He first used Yor's powerful force to forcibly abduct the goblins in a terrifying and bloody manner. Then he killed the chieftain and shaman to establish a terrifying rule. After that, he casually flirted with the beautiful woman who was like the Grim Reaper to the goblins in front of everyone. This caused the goblins, who had lost their leader and were in a period of restlessness, to submit to him under the powerful psychological impact of the contrast.

As expected, upon seeing this, the remaining goblins all knelt on the ground, choosing to obey Niu Zida. Niu Zida, smugly, pulled out a handful of Yoel's Snowballs and issued commands to the kneeling goblins:

"From now on, address me as Lord."

The goblins below quickly echoed these somewhat awkward human terms in goblin language. Joel, being ridden, couldn't understand the goblins' incessant chatter and asked in a low voice:

"What are the masters saying?"

"You bastard, who gave you permission to speak?"

Unexpectedly, Niu Zida scolded Yoel and stretched out his large hand, as if driving a horse, and slapped Yoel's black-stockinged buttocks several times, causing Yoel to let out a humiliating moan. The other goblins were both surprised and afraid of Niu Zida for being so good at taming humans.

Next, Niu Zida ordered the remaining goblins to enter the cave and wait for the arrangements after dawn, warning them that anyone who dared to leave the cave before receiving the order would be killed.

After all the goblins had entered the cave, Niu Zida had Joel hold him outside to keep watch, while he played with Joel's large snowballs. Only then did Niu Zida say:

"Yor, did the spanking hurt you?"

"It's alright, but why did Master suddenly spank my butt?"

Niu Zida explained his intentions, and only then did Joel understand how to subdue the goblins. Niu Zida then added:

"This is preparation for when you give birth to goblins for me. If we don't completely subdue them, it will be troublesome if anything happens during the pregnancy."

"So that's how the master was thinking."

Upon hearing Niu Zida's arrangement, Joel blushed with a charming smile. No wonder her first time had never been taken away; it turned out her master had considered things so deeply.

No goblins dared to come out of the cave all night, so it seems that Niu Zida's strategy was successful and the goblins were indeed deterred.

The next morning, Niu Zida rode Yor back into the cave, ordering the goblins to stay there while he had Yor hold him and found a sheltered spot to get a good night's sleep, since they had been busy all night...

Chapter Thirteen: Preparing for Childbirth

Chapter Thirteen.

"Now get some sleep and rest."

"Huh? Didn't Master tell me to keep an eye on them?"

"That was just a test. Anyone who runs away tonight will be killed without mercy, but if no one runs away, it means these goblins have truly submitted to me."

After taking a nap, it was almost evening when he woke up again. After all, Niu Zida had conquered three tribes in one night on his horse, Yul, and had traveled all day to monitor them. He hadn't slept for almost the entire night, so it was normal for him to have slept all day.

However, Joel started sneezing. Although the hunter's coat was quite warm, it was still a bit too cold to sleep like that in the wild in this weather. Niu Zida was fine being held in Joel's arms and kept warm by the beautiful woman's body heat, but Joel was feeling uncomfortable.

"Jor, are you alright?"

"It's nothing, I probably just have a mild cold."

"Take good care of yourself, Joel's wife."

"Wife, my lord..."

Upon hearing Niu Zida's half-joking remark, Joel's fair face turned as red as a tomato, and steam rose from her lowered head, instantly transforming her into a steam princess. Although decisive and ruthless, Joel in her daily life is still the kind of person who is a bit naive and cute, and she can't take such jokes.

"Haha, Joel, don't be shy."

Niu Zida lay on Yor's beautiful back and kissed Yor's fragrant face. However, he immediately smelled the scent of goblin blood on Yor's body. After all, the killing the night before was too intense, and he had smeared a lot of goblin blood on his body to hide his scent, so it was hard not to leave these smells.

"Goblin blood really stinks, it completely overpowers the pleasant scent of my beautiful maid, Master."

"Ha... Master is really strange."

"Hmm? What's strange?"

"Even though he's a goblin, he seems to really hate goblins."

"Ah, well... cough cough cough, this is related to my previous experience. But Joel, how were you summoned by Huanlong?"

"Ha... Actually, I don't really know either. I was just suddenly summoned here. I can't remember anything about my previous experiences. There's just a voice in my heart telling me that I have to listen to my master."

The beautiful woman answered honestly, so this must be the power of the servitude contract. However, Joel was given to her by Huanlong at the beginning, and Huanlong hadn't told her how to sign servitude contracts with other women yet. After that time when he gave her unclear instructions, he fell into a deep sleep and didn't come out of her consciousness space. She couldn't even ask him anything and just left everything to her. He really was a bossy guy.

Yoer was unaware of Niu Zida's inner thoughts about Huanlong. She only noticed Niu Zida lying silently on her beautiful back. The naturally beautiful woman assumed her master disliked her, and so she said:

"Master, should I take a bath to wash off the bloodstains?"

"Hmm, not for now, but we'll need it tonight."

Niu Zida is trying to find a safe breeding ground for Yoel to have goblins for him. The preliminary preparations are only halfway done, and tonight is the crucial night.

He rode Joel back into the cave. The goblins all looked at Niu Zida with fear. It seemed that after the shock of the previous night, the goblins were completely afraid of him.

Niu Zida selected a goblin and began to inventory and inspect the goblin supplies in the cave. Due to the deaths and escapes of some of the goblins from the three tribes, only about a hundred goblins remained. Therefore, Niu Zida ordered that the supplies and all the goblins be gathered in the largest cave and used as their temporary lair.

After inspecting the supplies brought by the goblins, in addition to some daily necessities, there were also food seeds and vegetable seeds. I didn't expect that goblins could farm. After asking, I learned that when the time is right in the spring, these goblins will also cultivate the land. However, their farming tools and fertilizers are not as good as those of humans, so their yield is not high.

How did you obtain these seeds?

“It was stolen from that village over there.”

"Which village has a church? Aren't there many people over there? Why would they let you plunder there?"

“We couldn’t normally get into that village. It was destroyed by the conscription during the war, and now only the elderly and children are left. It was also attacked by other human bandit groups, so we raided it at the beginning of the year and even kidnapped a few women. However, after a year, all of these women are dead.”
