《Heart Cores have hobbies (HIATUS)》Chapter 17
Advertisement
The rescued creatures had just arrived in time for lunch, once they sat in the goblin nest, the goblin elder already had prepared several piles of slimes for everyone to satiate their hunger.
Along the way until now, the old Avian kept speaking with Robur.
"So your Boss made these slimes?" The old Crow asked Robur.
"Yes! They delicious!" The goblin punched his chest as he answered the Avian.
With the Bear, dark elves and the other Avians gathered around this pair, they listened to their conversation as they ate.
At the same time, the newcomer goblins rejoiced their reunion with their kin who were gathered around the goblin elder.
(Seems like everyone was starving, from what the old crow told me, they only ate tiny bits of meat? Now I wonder what I should do?)
There was nothing new at the enemy goblin camp, so I decided to focus on the loot and the body of my minion.
Previously, I had no idea what to do with the body of the goblin, I spoke with the elder goblin, but it was no much use as I learned that the goblins would simply hold their right fist on their chests to grieve their deceased and that they didn't even need a body to do it so.
So in the end, my Imps brought the chains, the key, the rusty sword, 8 extra wood and the dead goblin's body into my territory wich provoked some new unlocks.

I was disappointed, so many things unlocked, but most were unusable at the moment for me and in the end, I just decided to craft 10 small Stone spears.

(I am still not sure if I should try to build more of the other weapons, I hope these are enough for now...)
Fortunately, only one of the arrows was totally broken in the battle.
After Lunch time had been over, I ordered the goblin elder bring me two new goblins to received my mark, these goblins were part of the rescued group, I chose them because they were lvl3.
Goblin has reached lvl4!
Goblin has reached lvl4!
(Consume body!)
This moment, fire spirits left my eye into the direction of the dead goblin body that was in the heart core room.
Slowly the body was consumed and a new popup appeared as the spirits returned to the eye.
Body consumption complete!
Mana acquired: 100
(So it returned twice the amount that I spent on him?!?)
Upon seeing the effects, I ordered the goblin elder to immediately bring me 2 more goblins.
Goblin has reached lvl3!
Goblin has reached lvl3!
(It is too bad that the new group only had 2 lvl3's, but its better than nothing!)
The goblins then went to pick up their weapons, the lvl4 goblins wanted a spear and a shield, while the lvl3's only picked a spear as there was no more shields.
Afternoon soon passed and nightfall was near, along all this time, everything was peaceful at the goblin nest.
As timed passed again and my mana recovered, I would recruit more goblins, 6 more goblins joined my ranks, 3 female and 3 male, all of them were lvl3 after receiving my "blessing" and picked a spear as their weapon.
At the start at the night, the White Bearmen suddenly walked to the goblins that were guarding the entrance to my territory.
"Tell your Boss that I have a request for him!" The bear shouted at the goblins.
Day 3, 1st Month of the Winter Season, 600.AC

Paradigm Shift - New Beginnings
The known universe is facing an invasion from a foe that can rewrite the natural laws and that will destroy everyting we know. Derrick is ripped from his world and sent to the newest incursion point of an enemy he doesn't even know exists. He is the hail mary or kitchen sink of the universe and it will be up to him to adapt to his new world and become strong enough to survive and to save the universe. ********* Author's Note ********* This is my first published book so feedback would be appreciated. A couple of caveats. First this story is about the details, if you don't enjoy reading and finding the easter eggs or just like to speed read through the chapters you will probably not enjoy it. Second for those that do not like the Harem tag I just want to state that this is going to be a matriarchal society and the women will outnumber the men 5-1. That being the case and because of the culture that I imagine would arise from this I felt it fair to put that tag out there. However, the main character isn't going to be picking up women left and right. This is not a typical harem story. Image was googled so I have no rights to it
