Chapter 60 Speechless (1/2)
”Cough, damn it!”
Sheila vomits a mouthful of blood before wiping it with her hands while cursing at herself for letting down her guard again. She had been so used to fighting the goblins that her guard naturally went down until now, she didn't even realise it until she experienced it today. The pain that she suffers from her stomach really woke her up from the reality that one shouldn't look down on other even when one had already experienced fighting against them.

She actually loses fifteen health points from that blow. Is this really goblin? She was shocked that her health went down more than she had anticipated. The last time she was hit by a goblin only amount to -3 or -5 health points, that was why she found it unbelievable at the moment. She didn't know how the goblin in front of her could blow her with such force, and the only way to find out is by defeating it. With that in mind, Sheila conjured a fireball and sent it to the goblin before rushing to it while brandishing her sword, ready to be swing.
As she had expected, the goblin avoid the fireball agilely to the side but can it defend against the sword that has already swing straight at it after it dodges the fireball?
Swoosh !
The sounds of her sword cutting the air resound to the whole surrounding, but that stopped when the goblin managed to deflect her attack right on time before pulling back. But Sheila didn't let the chance slip as she immediately conjures fire arrow. Because it was in the close range, the goblin couldn't completely dodge it.
”GAAA!”
The goblin shrieks painfully when the fire arrow embeds into its body. Sheila immediately swings her sword at it, promptly cut one of its hand, the one that was holding onto the club. To be honest, she was pondering on how in the world that a wooden club(she assumed) is deflecting her iron sword. What is it made of? That was why she cut the hand holding onto it before picking up the club on the ground while the goblin was moaning in pain at the side. She wanted to see if it's possible to view the club information. But nothing pops up in front of her when she holds it.
”Was it because it's not a dropped item from dead monster since the goblin is still currently alive?”
While she was having such thoughts, she didn't completely disregard the goblin at the side and her surrounding. Once she is sure that there's no way to find out the information about the club, she went to the goblin and beheaded it, ending the goblin from the suffering.
Although it appears strong at in first glance, that was merely due to Sheila letting her guard down. At the end of it, She was still stronger than it, which was why she could overpower it. The goblin couldn't fight back since one of its hand was cut off, and the weapon was in the hands of the enemy; it could only accept the upcoming demise.
『 You have killed the Elite Goblin Lv.10! 』
”So that was it.”
It was an Elite monster. The overall strength of such monster will usually be double than their normal ones. Sheila didn't expect to see such a monster in the Trial Tower and was more inclined to seeing new monster instead. Regardless that was merely her wishful thought. Perhaps, she might see more of goblin variant in this floor. As the dead goblin shattered into the glittering light, she looked toward the spot where she left the weapon and saw that it followed right after and disappeared into nothingness. Sheila shrugged her shoulders before picking up the gold that was dropped from it.

”That's quite a lot of gold for a goblin. Ah well, it is still an elite monster, nonetheless.”
