45 Chapter 45 (1/2)
Unknown location
Inside a large hall filled with screens either mounted to walls or drifting around, we find an assortment of different creatures walking and talking with people and floral. From dandelions talking to grasshoppers to lions chatting with trees. Each screen showing different scenes on earth, mostly battles between individuals but a few large groups mixed in as well.
In the back corner resting on a large couch with a joyful smile that could enchant most males was Artemis or as she likes to be addressed Big Sis. Watching as Hunter destroyed the little goblin hideouts one after another.
”Arty whatcha watching?”
”Oh Camila your little snakes's master is causing a fuss. At least he is entertaining, I just wish he was less stupid.”
Slowly a meter long emerald green snake with a repeating hexagon pattern along her scales climbed the back of the couch. Looking with interest as a bloody figure ripped goblins to shreds. The bloodlust radiating off him cause the surrounding goblins to try and flee. The only result that ended as was to be hunted down one at a time.
”Wow he really is different from most of the humans huh. Most are shying away from bloodshed or at least try to use their guns. Your guy has no problem getting a little dirty.”
”That's an understatement. I must say I prefer it this way, the only problem is that he and his group already cleared the majority of the goblin population. After this group the only one left is the largest and strongest.”
”That shouldn't be a problem for him should it?”
”In most cases no, it would even be great because of the overlord mission bonus. The problem with this group is its leader.”
”Now that you mention it, I remember reading about that group. So the tier 3 leader huh? Your guy won't actually try to fight that monster though right?”
”Sigh, maybe if he doesn't see what's left of that group's captives.”
”What do you mean?”
Controlling the screen on a different monitor to change the location it viewed Artemis pointed to a certain captive of the goblin group barely left breathing.
”That's not who I think it is right.”
Artemis only sighs in response to her friend's question.
”What's his odds of winning.”
”I don't know to be honest but it will be close and I'm not done using him for points yet.”
”Why not issue a quest to make him go somewhere else.”
”That would just work against me, hes the type that would feel like I'm trying to hide something.”
The two of them, one human and one snake just watch as Hunter finished off the last of the small goblin group. Sure enough he started to jog before leaping into the air, speeding off towards the last goblin hideout. The final goblin group is using one of the tallest apartment buildings as its base. Twelve floors filled with the stench of blood and despair, all the previous occupants either managed to escape or were captured. Wither or not there still alive is up for debate considering the type of captors goblins are. Even if some managed to survive that may have been more of a curse than a blessing.
