《The World-ruling Dungeon》Ch 42 – Promotion, camp and sneaky goblins

"What the fuck did you just say?!"
"I said: What if you don't come back?!"
"You fucking dare!"
"GAHAN!"
Gahan was grabbed by the arm by Garth, who stopped him from charging onto Poert.
"Let me go Garth! Did you hear what this fucker just said?! That's a flag! A fucking bad one at that!"
"Yeah, I did. But..."
"But what?!"
"Why the fuck are only three people here? We don't move in such small numbers with small fry, especially not Lancer."
"Oh... Right... Lancer, why the fuck are you here with only these two?"
"Look behind."
"Oh..." As Gahan looked behind for the first time, he realized the ring of fire in the tunnel behind, and the charred insects in front of it.
"How many?"
"..."
"I ASKED HOW MANY!"
"Eight... There were eight more."
"We lost eight people... May I know how?"
"Insects"
"WE LOST EIGHT PEOPLE TO INSECTS?"
"YES! THE FUCK YOU WANT ME TO DO ABOUT IT?!"
"Oh... Sorry... You're the careful one... If they died it's probably their fault. Or because they were just too weak."
"Thank you...? I guess..."
A terrifying conversation took place between Lancer and Garth. For Poert, at least, it was relieving.
"Poert your name right?!"
"YES SIR!"
"When we get out of here, Lancer's gonna train ya. Congratulations, You're promoted."
"Wha- YES SIR!"
"You lot! Let's go!"
Seeing that Garth's foot had been healed and the now crippled Lard set against a stone, sat down, Garth prompted the group to move.
"Lancer, Take us back to where we came from."
"Yes, sir!"
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Where the fuck are they?" Joe was the first to ask as soon as they arrived. The signs of their presence and the large tent used by Gahan were still there.

"The hell do I know?!" Gabe responded.
"Don't you think they got inside? Kyle stated the obvious, that nobody had thought from their impression of the cave.
"Inside? Are they stupid?" Joe gave a caustic remark... One everyone could agree was very possible...
The three men looked into the gaping cave. Only to hear a grumbling followed by a huge tremor. Joe barely managed to stay on his feet, while the others somehow managed to keep their balance for the short amount of time.
"The fuck was that!" Joe asked, but nobody answered. They all, kind of, already knew.
Followed by a waft of dust.
The cave almost looked like the mouth of a dragon, Puffing out smoke after being bothered.
"Like hell I'm getting in there!" After asking, only to be answered by the cave itself, he made a statement.
"We should wait, they'll come out eventually..." Kyle reinforced it.
"Yeah..." While Gabe, the leader, was nowhere near brave enough to defy their decision.
As such, the group started to set camp where the whole Mercenary Group previously was.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
(The following conversation was translated to human language)
"DID YOU SEE THAT SHIT?!" (Goblin 1)
"Yeah! The cave is alive!" (Goblin 7)
"No you IDIOT! It's not alive! There's someone inside, it collapsed just like ours!" (Goblin 1)
"Oh..." (Goblin 7)
"But why are they afraid of going in?" (Goblin 9)
"Huh?" (Goblin 6)
"Yeah, like, didn't you see them staring at it and then after the dust gushed out, give up?" (Goblin 9)
"If they are afraid of something inside... It's a bad idea for us to go in there." (Goblin 11)
"I agree... Let's go back and notify the king." (Goblin 2)
"Yes. We'll notify him about the fight, their fear, and the cave that shouldn't exist. Maybe we can take it over and make it ours." (Goblin 1)

"Yeah! With our Majesty it's gonna be an easy job!" (Goblin 7)
"Let's hope this is the thing we needed to get stronger!"(Goblin 1)
With this, the goblins from the Hunting Squad decided to go back, having found out about the existence of humans and the source of the tremors, they confidently moved back to their base, as quickly as possible. Inadvertently making some noise.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Kyle suddenly turned behind. The sounds from the forest and the sudden gaze prompted him to use his skills to double-check.
"What is it Kyle? Everything alright?"
"Goblins... A Large number of them... But it seems they just turned around and left."
"You say large numbers?" Gabe asked him as a confirmation... In large numbers, goblins become a real nightmare even for experienced adventurers... Unless they have a powerful Magician.
"Double the number we fought... Not that many but still... They must have followed us here."
"Heh? You mean you didn't even notice them all the way till now?" Joe interrupted the conversation, making a surprising yet disturbing point Gabe had not realized.
"Yeah... Maybe us finding those goblins was an accident and they were surprised..."
"Oh that would explain the easy fight..."
"This is a problem..." Gabe didn't like how they thought lightly of this finding.
"What's wrong my man?" Joe asked.
"If they are strong enough to hide their presence even from Kyle... Those are not normal Goblins."
"We better be careful with the forest then..." Kyle acknowledged the fact.
"So we're taking turns on lookout duty?" Joe asked.
"I think we should..." Gabe answered with a frightening tone.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Lone: The Wanderer [Dropped Version (includes original draft of the rewrite's first volume)]
Nine-to-five. The daily grind. Life. Painful years of school. Working as a slave for some undeserving corporate big-wig. The monotonous life of unemployment. We all experience this in one way or another, and we can all conclude one thing: it's dull. Such a fact rings true even for the fabled Lone Immortus, a powerful nine-tailed Golden Foxkin. However, what would you do if your monotony was suddenly ground to a halt and you were thrown out of your comfort zone along with a young girl forgotten by time? Perhaps you might have done things differently, been more organised, immediately died, gained control of the world in a matter of days, but this is Lone's tale, not yours. Watching two insecure people struggle to survive and find their place in an unfamiliar land just might be enjoyable to witness. Who knows? One thing's for certain: it won't be an easy path for them to tread, and what could possibly be more entertaining than watching people endure hardships and grow? I know of at least eight gods that would answer with, 'Absolutely nothing.' I wonder, after seeing this journey from start to finish, how would you answer? [Goal of 2 chapters per week, the only exceptions being announced breaks or emergencies] A/N: This story is in the middle of a rewrite, so please forgive any noticeable plot holes and wonky chapter numbers. I am working on it every day, so understanding would be greatly appreciated. The new cover art is a courtesy of the very kind and talented ssddx. This novel is a participant in The Writer's Pledge
