After giving Rou ten of my Undead necklaces I went to sleep in my small section off corner. Once I awoke and saw I had slept for another day's worth of training I went outside. After waking back up I noticed that the hobgoblin saved me a large couple of rabbits looking at the back of the room I noticed the pile of over thousand of rabbit bones.
Apparently the rabbits were very stupid and would jump on the traps after something has already died inside. Who knew that would happen? I certainly didn't. Other than that I walked outside and saw something even more gruesome. around 400 rabbit pelts were being tanned and made into clothes.
Smiling at the scene I wondered how the other hobgoblin was doing. As I walked inside the cave once more I noticed the thing started eating all of the rabbit bones and was in fact almost finished with them. "Tastes just like chicken with a bit of a rabbit after taste." With that I just turned away after using observe on him.
Looking down I noticed his strength thanks to all of this was now 84 with a Dexterity of 96. That made me wonder just how could anyone gain that much strength that fast. Until I observed the piece of bone he was eating on.
A piece of bone that has been partially absorbed by Consumption Absorption. After realizing the man was using a special skill I grew a little jealous at not having it. Shrugging it off I observed what the skill did and frankly I thought it was a plain hack. It was a power more unfair than my power that made me a video game character. And that was because he could just steal my power if I was uncareful.
This also made me realize why the man had licked his lips the first time I saw him. He thought of me as nothing more than a way to gain strength " I see the traps did well." " Yes they did wonders in facts there also reusable after sprinkling a bit of dirt in as well." Nodding I stood beside him. "Are you training the others as well," I asked in surprise at seeing how the hobgoblin was less greedy than what observe said about there species as a whole.
" That's right all though it isn't as advanced as others it had been created by us for other goblins to learn and grow." Smiling at his show of sincerity towards me I decided to watch there training for the day and give advise to the weaker goblins.
After getting done I went outside to set up a few more traps before coming back and going to sleep.

It turns out that by teaching the weaker goblins it would speed up the growth of the other goblins who listened in. As such I woman goblin evolved into a hobgoblin today. Also another interesting thing is that although they don't have chakra they all contain a small amount of energy called Mana.
After learning about it it popped up in all my observes now. Another point is that they showed my something that gave me and Idea to try once I got back home. Hardening the skin to take a set amount of damage. Another thing he noticed was that his mission was even further and almost now finished.
Time- 1 Day
Today however wouldn't be going as peaceful as the others I realized. After all I could sense a danger coming. One that could be my end if I wasn't careful. And that threat was a group of soldiers. They were only around 25 points strong in each stat on average, however there was 2 people who stood out. They each had 80 Point averages. Thankfully for me I didn't need to directly do so. Another thing I realized was that all my traps had leveled up my crafting skill to level 7.
Anyway I needed my traps to take out the small time army while only Rou could tackle both of them. However even he might feel pressured if they are able to work together. As such there was only one choice. I needed to distract a guy who was Faster, Stronger, and had more Vitality than I did. The only question was how could I do that.
