Reincarnated as a goblin, but her mother is a white-haired elf?

Chapter 295 Town Crisis, Girl Who Lost Hope

Before the punitive expedition.

In a corner of the town.

Ike sat alone in the shadows, his eyes vacant, devoid of their former sharpness.

Since that defeat and losing his teammates.

He never left the town again.

Just then, a boy came into Ike's view.

His name is Bridger, he is Ike's friend, and one of the leaders of the new adventurer party.

When he entered the room and saw Ike's appearance, a strange anger welled up inside him.

He was angry at Ike's lack of ambition, feeling that Ike shouldn't give up on himself like that.

"Ike, look at yourself now!"

Bridger said loudly.

"You used to be so brave and ambitious!"

"Why have you become so颓废 (颓废 is a difficult word to translate directly, but it implies a state of listlessness, apathy, and a lack of motivation)?"

"Are you really going to give up on yourself like this?"

"you"

"Don't talk nonsense if you don't understand!!!"

Ike interrupted Bridger.

"What do you even understand?!"

Ike raised his head, a hint of confusion and pain flashing in his eyes.

He knew he was in a bad state.

"you"

Seeing this, Bridger took a deep breath and continued:

"Ekko, join my team."

However, Ike remained unmoved by Bridger's invitation.

Click!

At that moment, Lisa opened the door and walked in.

"Ah, it's Lisa."

Bridger was overjoyed to see Lisa and greeted her.

"Yeah, long time no see."

"have not seen you for a long time."

Lisa simply nodded, glanced at Ike with a hint of disappointment in her eyes, put down the food, and left the room.

"So you just let Lisa take care of you all the time?"

Bridger, sounding very dissatisfied, glanced at Ike and cursed.

"waste."

Both of them liked Lisa.

But Lisa didn't like them.

Ike then put it down.

As for why they teamed up, it was purely because of the team and family ties.

My parents agreed.

"so what?"

"I'm going to start pursuing Lisa."

Bridger looked at Ike with a serious expression.

Ike's eyes widened, he stared blankly for a moment, then forced himself to remain calm and said:

"Well, that's none of my business."

"Is that so?"

Bridger said something before he left.

"I really didn't expect you to have fallen to such a state."

boom!

The door is closed.

As time went by, it gradually became dark outside, and the originally noisy sounds gradually quieted down.

At this time, most of the adventurers in the town had gone hunting and had conquered the goblin's lair.

That's normal.

After all, there are so many rewards.

"That's really impressive!"

Ike took a sip and let out a drunken sigh.

Why are they so brave?

Ike didn't understand.

"right."

"It must be because they haven't experienced or seen hell."

After finding an excuse for himself, Ike picked up the bottle next to him and took a small sip.

call!

In a daze, he felt the surroundings brighten.

Along with this came a gradual increase in temperature.

"What's wrong?"

Ike slowly opened his drunken eyes and saw a fiery red scene outside the window. All he could hear were cries for help and insults.

"Help!"

"It's goblins! The goblins are coming!"

"What?!"

Upon hearing the word "goblin," Ike immediately opened his eyes and stuck his head out.

At this moment, everything outside was ablaze with red light, and countless fiery arrows, like shooting stars, shot towards the town, setting houses ablaze.

And from not far away, a green figure emerged, its gaping maw revealing a lewd smile.

"That, that's a goblin?!"

This horrific scene immediately triggered trauma within him.

"Oh, how scary!"

He immediately huddled in a corner of the room, covering his head and trembling.

Why?

Why are they here?

Tears streamed down his face.

"Help"

Just then, a familiar, childish voice rang out, causing Ike to look up and peek through the crack in the door at the child who had been cornered by the goblins.

Xiaoling, his neighbor's child, brings him food every day.

He wanted to save her.

But it's so scary.

"No, don't."

Xiaoling shrank back, looking fearfully at the goblin with a mouthful of fangs that slowly approached.

"Crunch, crunch!"

The goblin let out a gleeful cry just as he reached out his wicked hand to touch the girl.

I'm currently reading the error-free version! This is the first time I've published this novel.

Snapped!

A dark shadow struck, and he was sent flying.

"No,"

No.

Ike held his rusty iron sword, his hand trembling as he faced the goblin who was slowly rising to his feet.

Clearly, clearly I'm terrified.

Why did he rush out?

He wanted to run away, but he couldn't move his feet no matter what he did.

Turning around, the goblins were already upon them.

He closed his eyes, trying to swing the sword, but his hand wouldn't obey him.

brush!

A petite figure suddenly appeared and then waved.

Immediately following was the sound of a sword blade scraping against the air.

puff.

Warm blood sprayed onto Ike's body.

"It's alright now."

Hearing the clear, childish voice, Ike slowly opened his eyes, and what came into view was a headless goblin.

"what!"

He cried out and fell down along with the goblin's corpse.

"Are you alright?"

That clear, youthful voice rang out. Ike looked up and, upon seeing the person who had saved him, showed a shocked expression.

The person who saved him was a little girl who was eleven or twelve years old and a head shorter than him.

But her cold face showed no trace of the naivety and innocence that one would expect from someone so young.

"It's good that you're alright."

Xiaoyu merely glanced at him indifferently before leaving with her longsword in hand, moving so fast that even Ike could barely see her.

What kind of monster is this?

And what kind of good-for-nothing is he?

Waste that needs human protection.

"Big brother, I'm so scared!"

Just as Ike was feeling lost, Xiaoling, the girl he was protecting, hugged him from behind and cried.

"My mom and dad were killed by that green monster while trying to protect me."

"Big brother, it's me..."

"Don't be afraid."

Ike's hand, which had been hovering in the air, landed on Xiaoling's head.

"Big brother, I will protect you."

Despite his trembling hands, he felt a sense of being relied upon and protected.

The joy of finally surviving.

This compelled Ike to make a promise and agree.

He gripped the sword tightly, the sound of the world echoing in his mind.

You have attracted the attention of a star in the Milky Way above the sky.

A light rain falls as I wander through a town teeming with goblins.

Some goblins had their throats slit without even realizing it.

But this unbridled use of power always comes at a price.

Her courage cost her her self-protection.

Faced with the goblin's slashing attack, Xiaoyu dodged the attack with minimal effort to avoid wasting her strength.

But the sharp blade still left wounds on her body.

Tiny wounds kept accumulating on her body.

The once snow-white clothes were soon stained red with blood.

"What are you doing?"

At the same time, Alna, whose neck was covered in scales, finally caught Little Rain, who was running around everywhere.

"You know"

Just as Alna was about to say something, she was met with Xiaoyu's empty eyes.

"what?"

"Of course, we should kill these goblins!"

"If you continue to use this power so recklessly, you will die!"

Alna was very distressed and scolded Xiaoyu loudly, but Xiaoyu remained unmoved.

"So what?"

Blood dripped from her arm, yet Xiaoyu's cold and empty expression seemed to be telling a story.

She didn't care.

She should have died right there in that fire.

Above you, the star named "Courage" is watching you.
