The supporting character's harem is very normal

Chapter 12 Camouflage Skill

?Time passed quickly.

At night, there were three moons in the sky. One shone yellow, another purple, and the last one had a reddish color.

Today was a waning moon, but there were three moons, so although it was evening in the forest it wasn't too dark.

At least, Lathel could still see the surrounding scenery within a radius of 50 meters.

He and Alec hid in a bush, about 30 meters from the cave entrance.

At this moment, there were still 3 Goblins guarding the entrance of the cave, however, they seemed to be too tired so they were sitting on the ground resting.

Alec took out a dagger and threw it to Lathel.

Lathel of course didn't say much as he immediately accepted the dagger. The dagger was only about 30 cm long, and the blade seemed to be made from the bone of some animal.

The dagger was a bit dull, it was like a cylindrical bone with a sharp end. The handle was wrapped with rope so it could be easily wielded.

Lathel: "…"

'What the hell is that?! Are you kidding me? Do you consider me a beggar?'

Lathel wondered if this dagger could even peel an apple, moreover how could he use this to fight Goblins?

"Thanks." Lathel thanked him with all his 'friendliness'.

"No need to thank me, I will wait for you to take out the treasure." Alec said smiling.

Lathel really wanted to say: 'Do you believe I will put this dagger in your *ss?'

However, those were just his thoughts.

"Okay… Let's act."

As soon as Alec finished speaking, he pulled out the heavy sword he carried on his back.

The sword was about a meter long, the blade was about 20cm wide, and it was ink-black. It also seemed that the entire sword was made from one solid block of metal.

Lathel who was sitting next to him also felt the coldness and murderous aura radiating from the sword.

He looked at Alec's sword, then at the so-called 'dagger' in his hand.

Lathel sighed as he silently repeated a mantra 'if you don't compare, you won't feel hurt.'

Alec held his sword and rushed out of the bushes. He then slowly walked towards the Goblins.

The Goblins were resting, and upon seeing Alec coming, they immediately used some strange language to talk to each other.

RICE!

RICE!

Immediately after that, the three Goblins screamed, they wielded their weapons and rushed towards Alec.

Alec smiled disdainfully, while muttering: "Huh! You're just Goblins, monsters at the bottom of society, you dare swing your weapons at me?"

Lathel: "…"

'Can you focus on fighting, stop flexing, okay?'

Alec held his sword and swung it forward. However, the sword was heavy, and when used, it would greatly limit his speed.

The Goblins were small and quite agile, so they avoided Alex's attack.

RICE!

A Goblin suddenly screamed and five goblins rushed out from the cave holding torches.

Seeing this, Alec frowned, he then ran into the distance. Before running away, he turned his head to look at the place where Lathel was hiding, his eyes signaling him.

Lathel: "…"

'You idiot... you're lucky goblins are stupid, if it was another monster, just looking at your eyes would be enough to know that I am hiding here.'

Lathel shook his head. He now remembered a saying: "Don't be afraid of strong enemies, just be afraid of stupid teammates."

He did not rush to act rather he hid in the bushes and watched the group of Goblins chasing Alec.

Just as Alec said, there were a total of 8 Goblins. However, how many Goblins were left inside the cave?

And was there a Goblin Shaman inside? Everything was still a mystery.

Lathel sat quietly in the bushes, as he watched the Goblins chase Alec.

10 seconds…

30 seconds…

1 minute…

Lathel remained seated.

3 minutes later, he started heading towards the cave.

…

The cave was quite dark, luckily there were a few torches placed around so he could clearly see the situation inside the cave.

The cave was not large, it was only about 20 meters long and about 3 meters high. However, inside the cave there was an extremely nauseating stench.

It was like the smell of 10 dead rats and 100 rotten eggs mixed together. Moreover inside the cave there was a strong smell of feces and urine.

Around the cave there were many animal bones, no, not just animal bones, human bones could be found too.

There were even a few sets of armor and clothes thrown away by the Goblins in the corner of the cave. It seemed that apart from adventurers, civilians also died here.

At the end of the cave, a Goblin sat next to the fire, its skin wrinkled due to old age.

It carried a stick that was about 1 meter long, a pearl was tied to the top of the stick with a rope in an extremely sketchy way.

However, although the pearl was the size of a tennis ball it radiated an extremely magical light for 5 years.

At this moment, a Goblin carrying a torch ran into the cave.

That Goblin's face showed extreme fear and haste, and it spoke to the Goblin Shaman in an incomprehensible language.

"*&^*#^%$^%hgiuy&^%"

The goblin Shaman heard that and frowned. It bared its yellow teeth. From its mouth, an extremely terrible odor could be perceived.

"&^%&$%^$&^*" Goblin Shaman said.

The other Goblin replied: "&^%*^*&&^*^"

Goblin Shaman heard that and immediately shouted angrily: "*&^&^$^(*(&(*&)

Then, it stood up with that wooden stick and slowly walked towards the cave entrance. Because it was old, its actions were also extremely slow, as it needed to hold on to a wooden stick to move.

Ptks!

The goblin Shaman opened his mouth, it felt like something had just pierced its throat from behind.

It turned its head and saw the Goblin that had just run into the cave.

Goblin Shaman opened his mouth to scream but he couldn't. A dagger had pierced its thin throat, blood spilled out, filling its mouth and throat.

No matter how hard it tried, its mouth only let out "Uc... uc..." sounds like someone drowning.

The Shaman used all his strength to swing the stick in his hand towards that Goblin.

But it was too old, and moving was difficult, so when it was seriously injured like this, it did not have enough strength to threaten the other Goblin.

That Shaman held tightly to the wooden stick, the hand holding the dagger immediately used force to pull the dagger out, then stabbed the Shaman in the head.

That dagger was extremely special, it looked like it was made from the bones of some animal.

The dagger had no blade, it just looked like a cylindrical piece of bone that was sharpened.

Although the dagger could not be used to slash something, the penetrating force it had was extremely terrifying thanks to its strange shape.

Ptks!

Once again, the dagger stabbed towards the Goblin Shaman. It didn't penetrate its neck, rather it just went right through his cheek, and lodged inside its mouth.

The daggers length was about 30cm, and since the shaman's head was quite small it easily penetrated its cheek.

"Uc… uc… uc…" The Goblin Shaman tried to scream but his throat was filled with blood, making him unable to make any sound.

He slowly fell on the ground and died. When he died, his eyes were still open, and his face showed surprise and confusion.

By the time he died, the Goblin Shaman could not understand why the Goblin killed him.

The Goblin was afraid that the Goblin Shaman was not dead, so he continued using the strange dagger to stab the Goblin Shaman's heart.

After more than a minute, the little Goblin stopped.

The Goblin then muttered in human language: "Camouflage - cancel."

Right after, something more bizarre happened. The small Goblin's outer skin slowly disappeared, revealing a young man that was over 170cm tall.

Yes, it was Lathel.

He picked up a piece of cloth from the ground and wiped the dagger that Alec gave him.

Looking at the scene inside the cave, he smiled with satisfaction.

The Goblin from before was the result of Lathel using the skill "Camouflage".

In the morning, after Alec left, Lathel tried using the skill "Camouflage". Of course, the results exceeded his expectations.

This skill could not only help Lathel disguise himself as a Goblin, but it could also help him speak the Goblin language.

Of course, after removing the camouflage status, he can no longer remember or use Goblin language.

"Rank B skills are truly powerful. It seems… I underestimated this skill."

Lathel smiled, then he began searching the cave to see if there was anything valuable.

The cave wasn't big, so it only took Lathel a few minutes to find a small chest.

In the chest there were many gold coins and silver coins. Not only that, there were also a few items inside, which seemed to belong to dead adventurers.

Lathel sat down, and examined the items inside the chest. He did not care about how many gold and silver coins were inside the chest.

What he was interested in was a small bottle the size of a Tennis ball. The outside of the jar was painted black, with a lid and a small latch on top.

He held the bottle in his hand, and it felt very heavy, as if it was made from a block of metal.

The bottle had a few images engraved on it, seemingly illustrating how to use it.

Lathel finished inspecting it and smiled happily.

"Hahaha… I was thinking of explaining how the Goblin Shaman died to Alec. However, with this, my plan will become absolutely perfect."

Lathel quickly set everything up, then he hugged the chest and ran out.

On the way out, he saw the staff in the Goblin Shaman's hand, no, more accurately, he noticed the jewel tied to the top of the staff.

[Ding! Found out that you intend to steal the Main Character - Alec's item, please take back that bad thought.]
