2025-04-10 04:50:28As the sun began to set on the victorious battle, Eryndor and his goblin entourage made their way back to the village, carrying the lifeless bodies of the orcs. The goblins chattered excitedly among themselves, their eyes gleaming with pride and accomplishment. The spoils of war would provide them with a much-needed feast, and Eryndor knew that this would boost morale and bring the tribe closer together.
Upon arriving at the village, Eryndor gathered the goblins around him. "Today, we proved our strength and resilience," he declared, his voice echoing through the ruined village. "But our work is far from over. We must rebuild and ensure our village is secure and prosperous." Eryndor's gaze fell upon Grimp, the battle-scarred goblin who had fought bravely alongside him. "Grimp, your loyalty and bravery have earned you a place by my side. From this day forward, you will serve as my second-in-command." Grimp's eyes widened in surprise, and he nodded solemnly, accepting the responsibility. Next, Eryndor's attention turned to a stout female goblin with a missing tooth and a scar above her eyebrow. "Gorsha, your culinary skills are renowned among our kin. I appoint you as our village chef. Select a few capable females to aid you in preparing meals for our tribe." Gorsha beamed with pride, her face creasing into a wide smile. "Me, Chef! Me choose best helpers! Make belly-happy food!" Eryndor chuckled, pleased with Gorsha's enthusiasm. He then turned to the burlier goblins, their muscular physiques evident even under their tattered clothing. "You, Krog, Vorg, and Throk, will form our hunting party and village guard. Your strength will protect our kin and provide for our tables." The appointed goblins grinned, flexing their muscles in excitement. With his leadership team in place, Eryndor focused on the daunting task of rebuilding the village. He surveyed the damage, his mind racing with strategies and plans. Many houses were beyond repair, reduced to smoldering ruins or splintered timber. Eryndor summoned the goblins with carpentry skills, tasking them with designing and constructing new homes using the surrounding forest's resources. He assigned others to gather materials, cut trees, and shape wooden beams. As night fell, the village transformed into a hive of activity. Goblins worked tirelessly, their torches casting flickering shadows on the ground. Eryndor moved among them, offering guidance and encouragement. To ensure efficiency, Eryndor divided the village into sections, assigning specific tasks to each group. Some goblins focused on crafting tools, while others worked on rebuilding the communal longhouse. As the days passed, the village began to take shape. New homes rose from the ashes, their wooden frames sturdy and strong. The air filled with the smell of freshly cut wood, smoke, and roasting meat – courtesy of Gorsha's culinary expertise. Eryndor's leadership and vision had ignited a sense of purpose within the goblins. They labored together, united in their determination to rebuild and thrive. One evening, as Eryndor watched the goblins gather around the fire to devour Gorsha's latest culinary masterpiece – roasted orc meat with wild herbs – he felt a deep sense of pride and belonging. The goblins had accepted him as one of their own, and he was determined to protect and guide them toward a brighter future. The village's rebirth was underway, and Eryndor stood at the forefront, ready to face the challenges and opportunities that lay ahead. Eryndor settled into his makeshift throne, crafted from the finest woods of the realm, within the skeletal framework of his future palace. The sound of hammers ringing against metal and the chatter of laborers filled the air as they worked tirelessly to complete his grandeur. With a wave of his hand, he summoned Grimp, his trusted goblin advisor. Grimp scurried into the hall, his eyes gleaming with excitement as he approached Eryndor. "My lord?" he inquired, his voice trembling with reverence. "Ah, Grimp," Eryndor began, "I've been pondering our victory over the orcs. It's time to turn our attention to your kin. Are there other goblin villages aside from the Gobrou clan?" Grimp's expression turned somber, his gaze dropping to the floor. "Yes, my lord. There are many goblin clans scattered across the realm. However, most are... aligned with the elven kingdoms." Eryndor's eyes narrowed, his mind racing with the implications. "Aligned?" "Slaves, my lord," Grimp clarified, his voice laced with bitterness. "The elves use them for menial labor, forcing them to toil in their mines and farms." A slow smile spread across Eryndor's face as he leaned forward, his elbows resting on the armrests. "Then it's time we changed that. Grimp, rally the goblin army. We march out to liberate their kin from the elven yoke." Grimp's eyes widened, and for a moment, he forgot himself, letting out a whoop of excitement. He quickly composed himself, bowing deeply. "As you command, my lord. I'll see to it immediately." As Grimp hastened to depart, Eryndor called out, "Grimp?" "My lord?" "Tell the goblins... we fight not just for freedom, but for our right to determine our own destiny." Grimp's face lit up with understanding, and with a determined nod, he vanished into the bustling corridors. With Grimp attending to his task, Eryndor focused on the next phase of his plan. He closed his eyes, and a holographic interface materialized before him – the System. "System," Eryndor said, his voice low and deliberate, "I've acquired ten thousand Chaos Points from our victory over the orcs. I wish to utilize them to acquire better armor and weapons for the goblin army." "Ding! Chaos Points Balance: 30,000 Goblin Army Equipment Upgrade Available Options Leather Armor Set. Basic: 100 Chaos Points CP each Chainmail Armor Set. Intermediate: 150 CP each Steel Plate Armor Set. Advanced: 300 CP each Short Swords. Basic: 200 CP each Long Swords. Intermediate: 400 CP each Battle-axes. Advanced: 800 CP each Please select the equipment and quantity to purchase." Eryndor's eyes scanned the options, calculating the best distribution of resources. He decided to prioritize a balance between offense and defense. "System, I'll purchase... 500 Chainmail Armor Sets, 1,000 Long Swords, and 500 Battle-axes." "Ding! Purchase Confirmed Chaos Points Balance: 2,300 Equipment Distribution: 500 Chainmail Armor Sets allocated to the goblin army 1,000 Long Swords allocated to the goblin army 500 Battle-axes allocated to the goblin army." With the goblin army's equipment upgraded, Eryndor felt a surge of confidence. His vision of a unified realm, free from oppression, was taking shape. The elves, with their slaves and pretentious grandeur, would soon face the wrath of the liberated goblins and their human champion. As the sun dipped below the horizon, casting the construction site in a warm orange glow, Eryndor leaned back in his throne, a determined smile etched on his face. The march to freedom would begin soon.

"What brought you to the Dark Forest?"Lady Commander Adara's eyes flashed defiance. "We demand release. You have no right to hold us prisoner."Eryndor frowned, his expression stern. "Release you? Be thankful I didn't have you executed for trespassing into my clan and killing two of my men."Sir Edward's face paled, while Princess Isabella's eyes widened in fear.Lady Commander Adara's jaw clenched. "We were on a mission to retrieve a rare herb. We didn't mean to trespass."Eryndor's interest piqued. "A rare herb? Which one?"The humans exchanged uneasy glances.Lady Commander Adara hesitated before speaking. "Dragon's Breath. Rumored to grow only in these woods."Eryndor's eyes narrowed.

"Each unique, each powerful."Eryndor leaned forward, intrigued."Tell me more."Grimp nodded. "The first clan is led by Shaman Korga, a powerful spiritual leader. Their clan, the Shadowhand, wields dark magic and cunning."Eryndor's eyes narrowed. "A valuable ally."Grimp continued, "The second clan is the Ironfist, led by General Gorthok. Their warriors are well armored and formidable in battle."Eryndor's interest grew. "A military force to reckon with."Grimp smiled. "And the third clan, the Paradya, is led by Archer Vexar.

"You're on the right path, elf. A few klicks from here, you'll see Kryptoria's walls. Three silver coins for verification, that's all."Eryndor nodded graciously. "Thank you for your cooperation."With a simple wave of his hand, Eryndor unleashed his feral aura.The pressure pinned the slavers to the ground, their faces contorted in terror.They succumbed to fear, all fell unconscious and were out cold.Eryndor searched their pockets and bags."Now what do we have here?"His counted the silver coins which had the engraving of a dragon, and a single gold coin which also had the engraving of a dragon."Wow!

We can't ignore the threat Eryndor poses."Duke Ravenswood sneered, "A lowly adventurer? What does he know of war and strategy?"Lord Harrington turned to Duke Ravenswood, "What do you know about war and strategy? Where was your war and strategy during the first battle against Eryndor, no don't tell me, but I would like to know where your war and strategy was when the thunderwolf pack ravaged through a village and killed of almost all it's residents. That lowly adventurer faced off against the vicious pack alone, and won. So until you do the same, I suggest you sit down and don't even speak another word."The entire throne room was silent.

The thought sent a thrill through him.As he walked, Adam's thoughts turned to the kingdom's internal affairs, soon to be within his grasp. He envisioned the downfall of Kryptoria's kingdom, a long-held ambition. Next, he would turn his attention to the Elven race, their arrogance and superiority complex infuriating him. They had treated him like trash and even sought to end his life the moment he was reincarnated into this elven body. Only he gods know what the past Eryndor had suffered in their hands.

Morning dawned, and Adam rose. He brushed his teeth, bathed, and dressed.Downstairs, the guild bustled with activity. Two soldiers, clad in royal armor, spoke with the receptionist.She caught Adam's eye and waved him over. Adam approached, curiosity growing. The receptionist had never spoken to him out of the goodness of her heart. So why exactly was she calling him."Adam Hill," the receptionist said. "The King has sent for you."Adam's heart skipped a beat. He turned to one of the soldiers. "Have I committed an offense?" Adam asked.The soldier's expression remained neutral. "I don't know, sir," he replied.Adam weighed his options. But the King's summons couldn't be ignored. If things turned bad for him, he could always escape."To think my infiltration plan ended before it even began." Adam thought to himself."I'm ready," Adam said.

Getting revenge for his mother and reuniting with his wife. But all these are things he will never have.The colossal alpha wolf, Lucius Von Blake, towered over him. Adam struggled to sit up.Lucius stepped back, giving Adam space."You're awake," Lucius growled.Adam rubbed his temples.

Chalice's face went pale.Disgust filled her eyes. "You're back?" she said, her voice dripping with hatred.Chalice recognized Adam despite his changed appearance. She had thought about him angrily many times."I'm back," Adam said calmly, meeting her gaze."How dare you come back?" Chalice shouted, her face red with anger. "Don't stand so close to me! It's Mrs. Kent to you. Didn't your mother teach you manners?"Chalice's voice was loud, and her spit flew near Adam's face.Adam's anger flared, his heart aching at the mention of his mother.He clenched his fists, reminding himself to stay calm. This woman was Evelyn's mother."Want to hit me?" Chalice sneered. "You're a curse. Why come back now? You'll ruin everything!"Just then, Evelyn's father emerged
