Adventures Of A Goblin

Chapter 203 Hunting With Dana

*** FOUR MONTHS LATER ***

*** LOCATION = OUTSKIRTS OF KHAMOR CTYY, CAPITAL OF BREGOGON KINGDOM ***

Staring at the short green skin monster with her sword in hand, she moved hastily in its direction, ready to swing her weapon down on it.

"you need to go even faster than you currently are".

Dexter stood behind her with his arms folded, and watched her charge at the Goblin monster with speed that he is not pleased with.

He probed her to challenge herself beyond what she thinks her limits are.

Dana took his words to heart, and put it into practice, going even faster than she currently is, but he still was not pleased with the performance.

She got to the Goblin who had nothing on it except for its tattered body, and swung down her sword on it, going after it's left arm.

Dana's sword tore through the right shoulder of the Goblin, and she traced her sword down, cutting down the whole arm.

Her sword drenched in the blood that spurted out of the Goblin's cut off arm, she moved it away from the left arm, and over to the right arm, doing the same act she had carried out on its left arm.

The Goblin with no arms to fight back with, turned around in another direction to run for its dear life.

Dana slowly walked toward the Goblin who kept falling down in its track and still moving, making attempts to run away from her, using its legs to support the body to crawl.

She got to the Goblin, and stared down at it, watching it attempt to get away from her in its pitiful state.

*SCREECH!!!!!!!*

Using her sword, Dana stabbed the Goblin by the right thighs stopping it from crawling any further.

The Goblin was unable to do anything, and could only express its agony and discomfort through its vocal cries.

Dana withdrew her sword from its right thigh and moved over to its left, doing the same thing over again.

Dexter watched from the rear as Dana inflicted pain and misery to the Goblin in the best way that she can.

When he took her away from Edevin city, he made her register as an adventurer, and since then, he has been teaching her everything she has to know about being an adventurer.

During those months, he has seen a side of her he never thought a girl of her age could have.

A cold cruel side filled with immense hate, the hate that she ends up directing to the monster kind.

Whatever monster she comes across, before she delivers the final blow to them, Dana makes certain that they go through agony and pain, only then will she relieve them of the suffering she put them through.

Dana has inflicted enough damage to the Goblin's body, leaving it in a state that has one pondering; what the hell is this.

When she was done, she delivered the final blow by cutting off its head with little flow of blood rushing out, coupled with the amount of blood it had earlier lost.

"that was still not good enough".

Dexter said, making his way toward her while slowly unfolding his arms.

"I could have done it better if I was faced against an higher level monster".

Dana's complaint is due to the fact that Dexter, does not give her the opportunity to fight against monsters that has gone above the strength of what a normal Goblin has.

During the times she has spent with him, he has only ever permitted her to hunt lower level monsters to raise her level, and also teaching her basic combat techniques.

Unknown to her, that Dexter has his own reasons for only allowing her to hunt a particular set of monsters and not expand her hunting range.

"if the only way for you to bring out your true skills is by hunting monsters with higher level than what you are currently dealing with, then we still have a long way to go to get you in perfect shape".

Over the months they have been together, he has taught her a lot of things mostly involving how to hunt monsters, and being the bright student that she is, Dana was able to easily assimilate into her, everything she has been taught.

Surely, having a bright and talented student is a good thing for the teacher as it will reduce the time they need in explaining things to them.

It is a good thing, and Dexter can testify to that, but it is not without its own downside.

The problem Dexter has with her, is that she is far too stubborn and over confident in herself.

He knows how talented she is, and how adaptive she is to what comes her way, and he also knows how much she looks down on the strength of her opponent, believing that she, is unstoppable.

Dexter is lost on how she came about such personality. With all he had taught her, he made sure to always remember her that not all monsters are the same in terms of strength, there are some stronger than the other even with the same level.

Making her believe that level is not the only thing that should be taken into consideration when against a monster.

There are all sorts of monster kind on the same level, but with different body constitution, with some stronger, bigger, or more durable than the other.

Dana however, refused to listen to Dexter's, and carried on with her belief that as long as the monster's level is within the confines of levels she has come across before, then she is certain that she can go against the monster as well.

Dexter has seen that mere words will not be enough to convince her otherwise, so he decided to go with a direct approach, letting her understand by experiencing it for herself.

Only by experiencing defeat, will she truly understand his explanations and the reasons for putting a limit on the varieties of monsters she can hunt.
