Chapter 59 Evolution Once More
"i did it".
"I finally did it".
He thrust his hand up in the air in excitement as he continued screaming.
"I finally did it".
Following his escape from the Goblins, he had felt himself diminished.
The courageous side of him to see the end of a monster he has marked as his prey gone.
his once cheerful mood turned sorrowful, but now, he has finally slain a strong monster and regained his character.
Killing this monster is a akin to him redeeming his lost enthusiasm,
Assuring himself that he is not entirely useless.
Sure he might be among the small fish in the ocean, but there are always even smaller fish.
If there is an up, there surely will be a down.
"not like this monster is one of the down".
\'if it wasn\'t for the new skill I gained, off with my head it is\'.
\'that\'s right bitch, this Goblin is back in business\'.
\'well there is a possibility it might be a male sooo....\'
\'that\'s right you male slash female bitch monster\'.
\'you think you can best me, well guess what I ain\'t just going to give in to you\'.
\'Phew, that sure was tough, and honestly speaking, I wouldn\'t want to fight it a second time\'.
\'the pressure that comes with fighting against a monster of this nature is no joke at all\'.
[Ding]
[you have successfully killed a Lv33 fire lizard]
[twelve thousand experience points gained]
\'the hell, that thing was a lizard?\'.
\'no, no, no. I shouldn\'t be too surprised by the absurdity of this place\'.
[you have leveled up]
[you have leveled up]
[you have leveled up]!!!!!!!
[experience threshold has been met]
[evolution will now occur].
\'oh crap, not here\'.
\'evolving means I go into a forced sleep state\',
\'if I fall asleep now, I will fall directly into the lava below\'.
\'skill activation, thorn erection\'.
The thorn that sprouted from the ceiling coiled itself on his body, completely entangled in it.
\'great, now I won\'t be able to fall down with the thorn grabbing unto meeee....\'
***
"gaspppp....."
"that was a long forced nap".

\'hmm....\'
\'is it just me or is my stat calculation all wrong?\'.
\'I noticed it after I evolved into an adult Goblin\',
\'my stats then was supposed to be one thousand four hundred each, plus the bonus hundred points for each stats, but then I got four thousand one hundred for each stats\',
\'known knowledge, explain\'.
[....]
[the stats distribution setting rewards the owner with a X4 for each stats after surviving through the Goblin Teen rank].
\'yeah I can see that. What I am asking is why?\'.
\'why does it reward me with a X4 only after my evolution from a Goblin Teen?, why can\'t it just give me a times four from the very beginning instead of getting me confused with a sudden X4\'.
[....]
[obviously, it would have been done that way if it was meant to be].
\'are you trying to tell me I am asking an irrelevant and stupid question\'.
[no owner, that is not what I said].
\'ho, so now you are telling me I am too dumb to interpret your words in the right way\'.
[...]
\'what sort of insult are you going to throw at me next uhuh\'.
[...]
\'so you are ghosting me now is that it?....\'
[....]
\'the nerve you have got, ghosting your very owner\'
[owner!]
known knowledge called out with an abrasive tone undeserving for a skill.
\'now you are even shouting at me uhu?, what next, you are going to curse at me\'.
[owner.....]
Now with a calming tone.
[owner, I am skill belonging to you, only with your permission can I do anything].
[without your say so, I am nothing but an empty tusk of shell].
[if you want me to talk, all you have do is give the command]
[if you want me to forever stay quiet, all you have to do is give the command].
[which is it].
\'I want you to answer me with a straight forward question to whatever I ask, not a roundabout one\'.
[as the owner commands, so shall I do]
\'glad to know. Now, the stats difference\'
[the stats difference is brought about by the need for a physical difference between a goblin who is just in the early phase of the Goblin cycle and a goblin who has passed the early phase to the middle phase].
[using your past life as an explanatory term],
[when you are born, you are born weak. But as you grow, you grow stronger].
[during the growth process, there is a moment where your growth rate is constant and unchanging],
[that process is the transition of the toddler to childhood following teenhood].
[at a certain point however, there will be a distinct rise in your growth rate, both in physical terms and mental terms].
[that rise is what you refer to as adulthood].
[although for the mental terms, there are records that shows that majority remain unchanged from the mentality they have of when they are in their childhood to their transition into adulthood].
[the same process is what happened to you as a goblin].
[following your journey as a goblin Cub to a goblin Teen, there is no massive difference strength wise and mental wise].
[it is only after your evolution into an adult Goblin will the difference show, both in body and over all stats difference].
\'hmmm...\'
\'I think I get it now\',
\'but I still think the stat difference is still too massive\'.
\'not that I am complaining or anything\'..
\'without it, my life would have been over\'.
\'thank you overwhelming age difference for being so obviously reflective in this world\'.
\'now I only wish I can take a look at how different my body is compared to when I was an adult\'.
\'beard\'
he raises his hand and brushed his chin with it
\'ho thank God I don\'t have a beard\'.
\'the elder stuff confused me there for a second\'.
\'Time to get out of here and continue on my journey\'.
