BXBX NOVEL Chapter 92 First General / The Goblin 2
"huff...., huff...., huff....., huff...."
Pacing his breath with fast demeanor, concentrating on sucking in even the slightest air around him, is the first Goblin general.
Stuck to the wall, with his head staring right up at the Goblin who is on the opposite side of the wall.
The first Goblin general fought valiantly, and despite the Goblin having a higher threat level and more skill composition than him, he was still able to equal the Goblin in battle.
Relying on his only unique skill, call of thunder, that allows him to negate any mana related attacks, coupled with combat experience gained from battling with the Orcs and dueling with the Goblin king, the first Goblin general did not at all fall short to the Goblin or let himself get overwhelmed.
The first Goblin general indeed fough bravely, enough to have the Goblin taking him very seriously.
But, as an entity still bound by the concept of level, going against another entity who has crossed through the boundaries of level and graced the realm of an half spiritual entity,
the first Goblin general is most certainly intertwined in a disadvantaged fight.
Beings who are no longer registered by levels, but by rank, are beings who have been proven strong enough to leave their marks on the world.
The first Goblin general whose level still lingers at seventy-three is undoubtedly one of the strong, but only when compared to those bound by level.
But, compared to the Goblin who had gone beyond the level cap, and meeting the requirement to becoming an half spiritual entity is no doubt far above the first Goblin general.
The first Goblin general\'s saving grace for being opportuned to go against an half spiritual entity while still being bound by level, is thanks to his awakening to a unique skill.
Unique skill has the property of not minding what one\'s level is, and boosting the user to greater heights.
The downside to it is, if the user\'s level is set very low and they happen to awaken to a unique skill, there is a chance that the unique skill will slowly continue to kill its user because of the lower level difference.
Unique skill are skills that should only be possible to awaken among few spiritual entities like the Goblin.
For those who aren\'t spiritual entities, and still managed to awaken a unique skill, In exchange for spiking up the user\'s level, it continues to damage the user\'s physical body by overextending it beyond its capabilities.
In the case of the first Goblin general, he is a monster bestowed with peak physical prowess allowing him to bear the grunt of using his unique skill.
However, when put side by side against an half spiritual entity, the duration at which the first Goblin general can continue to withstand the pressure that comes from using his unique skill with an unsuitable body will be shorter.
Fatigue will continue to accumulate in his body, causing him to become slower the longer he continues to use his unique skill.
His senses that he takes so much pride in will start to fail him as everything becomes all jumpled up.
The nerves in his body that allows motion become possible will eventually wear out.
When it all gets down, the first Goblin general will not be able to keep his hold over his unique skill usage and will be left with no other choice but to deactivate it if he wants to continue living.
The first Goblin general is faced with a choice of continuous usage of his unique skill until his body wears out and ends up killing him, or deactivation of his unique skill and face off against the Goblin without it.
The first Goblin general does have a choice to make, but he tore apart said choice with his unwavering decision.
His life was dedicated to the Goblin king right from the time he decided to serve him.
Just like the other Goblins serving under the king, he desires only one thing, to always make the wishes of his king come to pass.
He grew up dreaming of a position that places him beside his king, and unlike the other goblins who could only dream about it, he achieved it.
He struggled and achieved the right deserving him of the seat next to the king, now....., now he is about to lose that seat.
The first Goblin general could feel it in his body that his time was up.
His body is already starting to wear out, and he could no longer muster as much speed as he had in the beginning of the fight.
His body\'s durability has rapidly fallen, and even now he is only pushing himself, trying to reach his limits despite knowing the dangers of doing so.
The truth is, he had an inking he wasn\'t going to survive this encounter when he saw how the Goblin had obliterated the three Goblin Generals.
Still, he just couldn\'t go back empty handed to tell his king that he had failed to carry out his orders.
He couldn\'t settle for an option like that, and so he chose to die trying to.
The first Goblin general hurls lightening from his hands at the Goblin who evaded it and made his way towards the first general.
The Goblin getting to the first general, thrust his hand at the first general.
The difference between the two was now more visible as the Goblin was able to get to the first general without even putting in much effort, and the first general too slow to get out of there in time.
The first general, raised his guard to tank the Goblin\'s fist, but his two hands exploded when the Goblin\'s fist made contact with it.
It was a given that the first general\'s durability had reached its limit, and only slight touches from the Goblin was enough to cause it tremendous damage.
The Goblin retreated back to the opposite wall, and from there, he stared at the first general struggling to maintain his hold to the wall without his hands.
The first general could no longer keep up, and he fell down from the wall and into the pit of fire that had burned the other three Generals alive.
His body, broke through the vines that had covered the ground, and he continued falling down.
When he had almost gotten to the ground, the spikes below were now visible to him, as he tries to control his body to not get impaled by it, but it was inevitable.
He fell down hard and got stabbed to the stomach by the spikes.
