Chapter 22: Chapter 22 - Oops ...

Many goblins were around me, some of them running and others behind holding small bows and preparing to shoot arrows at any moment, but because of the previous arrow, I was not worried about them.

"Okay, you first." I ran towards one of the goblins to meet him head-on, I could see his surprised look when he saw me in front of him, even goblins can be surprised, right?

One movement with my arm was enough to throw him to the ground hard enough to break several parts of his body, he stopped moving right there, for sure his organs were blown up by the impact.

Seeing this, the other goblin who was closest was wondering if he should continue his steps, so I decided to go to him, with a few steps I was in front of him and preparing a punch towards his body.

'Oops.' Before my punch hit him, two arrows came towards me at a slow speed, slow enough to make me smile. With my right hand, I held the arrow while it was in the air, and with my left hand, I held the goblin and used it as a shield to receive the second arrow.

I could hear the arrow entering the back of his body, and just after that came a scream, it was annoying and loud, so with the other arrow I was holding in my other hand, I killed him by putting it in his head, his scream stopped the same instant.

From then on, many other arrows started flying towards me, and without using magic I held them or diverted their paths using their own arrows, I was taking advantage of them to use them as a type of sword.

Just by avoiding their arrows, I was able to approach most of them and execute them with only one arrow in their heads, but using my hand.

Other goblins using batons or even rusty swords appeared, but they were so weak that they couldn't even hit me, they were all clumsy using weapons, and the level difference is huge.

"They are already running out." I looked around and realized that most of the goblins were already dead or scared enough not to attack me, and even killing a considerable amount, no levels had gone up.

Something was wrong, was it so difficult to level up? Although I had to kill a lot of bandits so that my level would rise to three.

"Whatever." I decided to speed up the battle. Holding one of the goblins' arrows, I ran as fast as I could, leaving a great trail of leaves flying, I arrived in front of one of the goblins and executed it by driving the stake through his chest.

"This is going to be useful." He was carrying a small bag with some arrows on his back, I took some of those arrows and thought of something fun, how about playing target shooting now that there are few goblins?

I held one of the locks in my hand and looked at one of the goblins who was still standing and frightened, with a gleam in my hand, the leaves around me started to rise and fly around me.

The trees were swinging more than normal.

"Take this." Holding the arrow, I used wind magic to launch it at an incredible speed, the arrow was so fast that the goblin didn't even have time to react, the arrow went through his chest leaving a huge hole because of his speed, and then it cracked when it hit a tree.

This was so satisfying to do, that I decided to finish the other goblins in the same way, seeing that I was using a spell, they started running towards me, apparently thinking that I wouldn't be able to cast several spells in a row.

But of course, I could do that.

With that glow that continued to illuminate all around me, and that strong wind that continued to swing the trees frantically, I ended them all quickly, and as soon as I killed the last one.

[You have leveled up - Current level 5]

That message appeared in my vision, making me smile. How long have I been here? It shouldn't have been too long, but I've already managed to raise a level. Even though there are a lot of goblins, it was worth it.

'Now that I'm done with this, let me have a look.' I approached one of the goblins that had been hit by my arrow, and then I looked into the hole in his chest looking for its core.

"Yes, that's it." A small transparent stone came out of his body, this was certainly the core of this goblin: "Just as I had read, it is the same as my original world, thankfully, it makes things easier." I threw the core there on the floor and decided to go home.

I didn't want to save cores yet, it's not a good time and I don't have what to do with them nowadays, besides that I'm starting to get sleepy, I can't think much now.

I left the bodies of the goblins lying there and went straight home. The houses that once had their lights on were now completely dark, it seems that they decided to go to sleep.

"Did more time go by than I think?" I opened the front door and looked inside, everyone still seemed to be asleep. I went inside and locked the door carefully to make no noise, and this time it was quiet, no noise was made.

'Okay, now I just need to go back to my room and clean these clothes.' My shoes were dirty from the forest land and there were some splashes of goblin blood on my clothes.

I went to my room walking carefully to make no noise and opened the door that was still partially open.

"Can I know where you were?"

When I opened the door, I found a girl sitting on my bed staring at me, she was very angry, I swallowed hard just to see her face.

"Lari, why aren't you sleeping at this hour? Haha .."
