The goblin surprisingly has a clear career plan.

Lina nodded in agreement.

Buwana was constantly developing near Yili Village back then.

"Later, when I was looking for a suitable place to establish a Goblin Tribe, I was quite picky about the location, and I never found the right spot, so I wandered around. By the time I realized what was happening with this task, I found myself lost and unknowingly came to a small village on the edge of the Esper Kingdom. At that time, I was starving, almost on the brink of death."

"There's a good several thousand kilometers at least between the Esper Kingdom and the Fess Kingdom, how exaggeratedly lost can one get!"

Shami started to worry.

It seemed like he almost lost his only goblin.

"Mr. Goblin, you need to change your habit of getting lost."

The white-haired girl shook her head sympathetically.

"What happened after that?"

"I was discovered by the villagers here, but they didn't chase me away; they were very calm about my appearance."

The goblin recounted how after entering the village, he took a bath at the village chief's house, ran to various villagers' homes looking for food to fill his stomach, and then slept behind a villager's wooden house, until the evening when the village alarm rang out for thieves, was he discovered by the villagers.

"They're not calm, they're numbed, no, they're blind!"

"Here, I discovered something strange."

The goblin's tone gradually became serious.

The two listened intently.

"This village has very little food, even though there are many fertile farmlands outside the village, the villagers can barely fill their stomachs."

"The internal division within the Esper Kingdom is very serious; though it's called a kingdom, the royal family only controls the surrounding and several major cities, while other cities and villages are largely in a detached state."

The goblin spoke about the history of this kingdom.

"The history of the Esper Kingdom is not long. Originally, in this impoverished kingdom, every village, town, and city was extremely poor and often suffered from the harassment of surrounding bandits, mountain thieves, and diverse biological forces.

So, at the beginning of the kingdom's establishment, the Esper Royal Family formed a very important contract with everyone in the kingdom: allowing a part of the cities, with the full support of surrounding towns and villages, to rise up first. Once they had the ability to resist outside forces, these rising cities would in turn help those smaller towns and villages that hadn't risen up."

Shami listened and nodded silently.

"That's a pretty good idea."

Buwana the goblin also nodded, his expression gradually becoming serious, his already green face growing greener.

"But later they betrayed the contract, those cities that rose first violated the agreement... Not only did they not help the small towns and villages that sacrificed food, resources, labor, and sweat to help them rise, but they also tried various ways to continue exploiting them..."

Shami's expression became serious as well.

"So, the living here are all suppressed people."

The goblin stood up.

"To thank them for their lifesaving grace at the time. I plan to try to help them out."

"Ah no, they just didn't notice their leftover food was eaten by the goblin."

While being moved, Shami still did not forget to correct.

"In the eastern Esper Kingdom, Urdo is a 'Vampire City' that drank the blood from its surroundings without spitting it out and intends to continue doing so. —That's what people around here call it. I am currently leading people from various villages and small towns in the east to resist Urdo."

Buwana's eyes looked into the distance, as if seeing that city directly.

"Within that city lies all the treasures that were once taken from them."

Shami and the white-haired girl were very moved.

They found out that in the time he hadn't noticed, the goblin was actually engaged in such a meaningful cause.

So this is the goblin, a real connection, not the same kind as portrayed in stories at all.

"But it's very obvious you're not on the same level of strength. Even if you successfully breached Urdo and entered the city, what next? Reinforcements will arrive soon, and ultimately you'll still be driven out."

Shami spoke slowly.

"I do not intend to stay long in Urdo. If I can breach Urdo, I will let the soldiers take back what belongs to them and then abandon the city. They might later become fugitives. But more people will understand through this action that Urdo is not invincible."

"Lord Shami, please allow me to stay here until the day the city falls before I leave."

"What will you do after you leave?"

"After I leave, they don't need to be sad, other 'Vampire Cities' will gradually improve their treatment, not because they suddenly found a conscience, but because they have seen the terrifying power that can destroy them."

"Are you sure you're a goblin? What's the next line after 'odd does not change, even does'?"

Shami stared blankly at the goblin.

"Lord Shami, I don't quite understand what you mean. A drop of kindness should be repaid with a fountain of gratitude. This is what I can do for the villages here within my power."

The goblin spoke slowly.

"Doing something this big just to repay a debt of gratitude?! I am already marked with the yellow Demon Slaying Order of the Esper Kingdom now!"

Shami gasped in surprise.

"Sorry, Lord Shami, for dragging you into this."

The goblin looked at Shami with guilt.

"I didn't expect that during this time, not only did I not develop according to plan, but I also got Lord Shami involved in the kingdom's wanted list."

"It's okay, just hope you don't get rid of me in the future."

Shami swallowed, he couldn't determine whether this goblin was a hero or a villain now.

Goblins aren't like this! Was there an issue during the resurrection ritual?

"How could that be? A goblin will always be loyal to its lord. Moreover, Lord Shami is not a lord with poor character. As long as the goblin's heart beats, there won't be a sunset for demon-kind. If Lord Shami can't rest assured, then I'll just kill everyone who issued the wanted order, so Lord Shami wouldn't be in any danger."

The goblin slowly knelt on one knee, making a very standard knight's salute.

The white-haired girl's eyes lit up, as if she had found a kindred spirit.

Shami widened her eyes, unable to say a word for a moment with her mouth agape.

"Buwana... weren't you saving the humans here? How come you said something as devilish as that with such calm?"

"I have a flexible moral standard. If faced with a choice that goes against the core interests of the demon-kind, I will unhesitatingly choose the latter."

Shami secretly patted the goblin.

[Name: Buwana]

[Species: Goblin]

[Loyalty: 90]

"..."

Anyway, Shami was ultimately impressed by the goblin in front of him.

In the background of having a demon king's loyalty of 90, the goblin also possessed many qualities he couldn't imagine.

Loyalty, honor, sacrifice, bravery, chivalry, friendliness, wisdom, steadiness, calmness...

Shami couldn't quite align the goblin in front of him with the stereotypical image of a goblin.

Even standing behind this goblin made him feel inexplicably reassured!

And with this goblin, putting the flat-chested blonde near him, she would probably just cry because she'll have to endure various lady-like education every day.

In short, this kind of daddy-type goblin is totally charming!

Shami held his left palm upward in front of the white-haired girl and curled his fingers.

"Lina, hand over the treasure to me."

The white-haired girl paused for a moment, as Shami's hand leaned a bit closer, and she finally understood, her cheeks a bit red but obediently placed her chest forward.

"Not this, it's the Hammer Sword!"

"Oh... oh..."

With the white-haired girl's consent, Shami briefly handed the Hammer Sword to the goblin.

"I noticed earlier that your spear seemed to have broken and you didn't have a handy weapon, try using this sword, it deals 5% extra true damage to those who have engaged in exploitative actions."

The goblin gratefully looked at Shami.

"I understand, I will definitely not let you down, and will inevitably take down Urdo."

"Ah ah ah, since I've already been wanted by this kingdom, do as you please, just take it as training."

Shami scratched his head, accepting reality.

"Mr. Buwana, you can ride a horse and do spear arts, where did you learn all that?"

"Oh, I found a Skill Book in the wild and then self-taught some small skills I found useful. These are skills that even a goblin could easily learn, surely humans would know them too."

"..."

Shami snatched the goblin's Skill Book, tossed him a few Teleportation Gates, and left with the white-haired girl.
