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

Inside the Goblin's lair, the atmosphere was solemn and quiet.

Goblin Tooth stood to the side, a worried look on his face.

He took a deep breath and said in a low voice:

"General, news has arrived from the Goblin Empire."

Goblin General Ren raised an eyebrow, signaling him to continue.

Goblin Tooth paused, his voice trembling slightly:

"War...the war has begun."

He lowered his head, not daring to look the general in the eye.

"Are you urging me to come over?" The general's voice was calm yet firm.

"Yes...yes."

Goblin Fang looked up and saw the general's deep eyes.

The general nodded and stood up.

He looked around at his inhabitants who lived in this nest.

His gaze was filled with warmth and determination, as if an invisible force was soothing everyone's heart.

"Don't worry, the war won't reach here."

He spoke slowly, his voice loud and powerful.

"If there are any changes, I will come and inform you. You can continue to live and work in peace and prosperity here."

After saying that, he turned and walked towards the entrance of the lair.

Goblin Tooth watched his retreating figure, his heart filled with respect and reluctance.

He knew that once the general left, he didn't know when he would return.

At the entrance to the goblin's lair, the general stopped and turned around.

He looked at Goblin Fang and Ted, a gentle smile on his face.

"I'll leave this place in your care while I'm gone."

As he spoke, he stretched out his warm, large hands and gently placed them on Goblin Fang's head.

Goblin Fang raised his head and looked into the general's trusting and gentle gaze.

A warm current surged in his heart, as if an infinite power was supporting him.

He clenched his fist, his eyes gleaming with determination:

"Yes, General! I will protect our lair! I will never allow any enemy to invade our home!"

Ted stood to the side and echoed:

"Me too!"

"Um."

Goblin General Ren nodded, just as he was about to turn and head towards the Goblin Empire.

"Ren~"

A voice, gentle as a spring breeze and with a touch of coquettishness, suddenly rang out in the air.

He looked toward the source of the sound and saw a female knight standing there.

She was clad in armor, yet still possessed a graceful beauty; she was none other than Hongmei.

Are you leaving again?

Hongmei's eyes were filled with reluctance, and her words revealed a deep longing.

Goblin General Ren looked at her and nodded again. "Yes, something's up."

His voice was calm, but it concealed a subtle tenderness.

Hongmei didn't press for details. She knew Ren's personality; if he didn't want to talk about it, asking would be pointless.

So, she gently bit her lip, as if she had made up her mind, and looked up at him.

"Can I come with you?"

However, Goblin General Ren decisively shook his head.

"No, not all generals are able to accept humans."

A hint of sadness flashed in Hongmei's eyes, but she quickly concealed it.

She suppressed her disappointment and forced a smile.

"Then, can I speak with you alone?"

At this point, Hongmei's gaze unconsciously fell on Goblin Fang and Ted beside her.

Ted was speechless for a moment; he hadn't meant to be a third wheel.

At the general's signal, they wisely retreated several dozen steps until they could no longer hear any sound and could only see the man and the goblin standing there.

The woman seemed very serious, and Goblin General Ren did not urge her, but stood there quietly, waiting for the beauty to speak.

In fact, even Goblin Fang knew about it.

The female knight named Hongmei's feelings for the Goblin General.

Even within the lair, many members of the opposite sex harbor feelings of love for General Ren.

but.

In General Ren's eyes, there is only ideal.

"How envious I am, General!"

Seeing this, Ted knew the outcome and saw no need to watch any further, turning back to look at Goblin Fang.

"Aren't you leaving?"

"I'll wait."

Goblin Tooth shook his head.

"Oh"

Ted chuckled, waved, and said before leaving:

"Sometimes, I really wonder, are you a goblin or not?"

"Not all goblins are evil," Goblin Fang retorted.

"Perhaps."

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

With that, Ted's figure disappeared into the darkness at the entrance to the lair.

And the red plum blossoms not far away seemed to have made up their minds, and with great effort, they said something.

General Ren, though his expression was so gentle, spoke words that made Hongmei lower her head and walk back dejectedly.

"Why"

Goblin Fang sighed; yet another woman had been hurt by the general.

In that instant, his dissatisfaction with the female knight lessened considerably.

In fact, when the female knights arrived at the lair, he thought they had some kind of conspiracy and was on guard at every turn.

But more than a month has passed, and nothing unusual has happened.

They even help them hunt monsters in their lair, gather food, and gain the support of their companions in the lair.

He doesn't need to be on guard at all times.

"Don't be sad, General, he's just—"

Goblin Tooth had never comforted anyone before, and for a moment he didn't know how to offer comfort.

"puff"

Seeing the troubled green face, Hongmei burst out laughing.

"I'm fine."

She wiped away her tears and forced a smile:

"Actually, I already knew I would be rejected when I confessed my feelings."

"Then why say goodbye?"

Goblin Tooth was puzzled.

"We already know the result."

Even knowing the outcome, I'm still not satisfied!

Hongmei looked up at the sky, her eyes reddening.

"You know what? Before I met Jin, I always thought goblins were lewd, evil, and cunning beings."

Goblin Tooth did not refute this.

There was no way to refute it.

Low-level goblins are indeed such a thing.

Therefore, there are no low-level goblins in General Ren's lair.

"Until I met Ren, he saved me."

Hongmei looked at Goblin Fang, her previous gentleness vanished, replaced by an incomparably firm gaze.

It was a look of unwavering determination that Goblin Fang had never seen before.

It was as if Hongmei's previous confusion was all an illusion.

"In fact, I don't believe that such goblins exist."

Hongmei continued, "Goblin Tooth didn't disturb them either."

"So, when Ren saved me and invited me, I readily agreed."

"At that time, I wanted to expose that hypocritical face, to tear away that benevolent smile."

"Then," Hongmei chuckled softly.

You failed.

Goblin Fang spoke on behalf of Red Plum.

"That's right"

She held her head high, but tears still streamed down her face.

"I failed." (End of Chapter)
