Preparation

Several days had past since I gave the command to start training the new goblins.

Titan walked them through the motions of battle and made them exert themselves everyday until they all looked extremely tough.

He taught them how to swing their swords and how to punch without hurting their hands or wrist when fighting.

They spared everyday using things like sticks and rocks, because without their first level up they couldn't select a class due to this fact they didn't have any weapons and the blacksmith was more focused on making arrows and armor as selecting a class didn't give you an infinite amount.

Because of this strenuous training they were slowly and steadily gaining experience and they were very close to their first level up.

Aside from the vigorous training of those goblins only a few things had changed, there was now a craftsman for everything they needed.

They had a blacksmith, a cook, an alchemist, a carpenter, and finally a trapper, which was something I'd wanted from the very beginning.

On this particular day the carpenter was making long tables and chairs using several mighty oak trees which I had to cut down seeing as we don't have any gatherers yet.

I walked away from his work station and outside of the cave and took a look around making note of any detail that caught my attention.

The first thing I noticed was that it was embedded inside of a mountain, the mountain itself was so large that the top of it was beyond the clouds, getting past it would be nearly impossible.

The second thing that caught my eye was the density of the trees surrounding the cave, it was incredibly difficult to see through the forest because of the pure amount of trees and buses around the cave.

I walked back inside of the cave and sat on a bench I had the carpenter make for me yesterday.

"I haven't checked my status in a while." I muttered to myself

As soon as I thought about my status a blue screen appeared in front of me.

"I need to level up those two skills before I evolve again." I spoke a bit louder this time.

While I sat there pondering on how to level up my skills, Titan approached me and spoke "It seems the new troops are about to break through, but Aven said that she saw a large group of humans on the outskirts of the forest while she was scouting."

I stood up and started walking towards the entrance of me dungeon. "Did she tell you if the humans were coming towards the dungeon or not?" I asked

Titan walked along side me for a moment before saying "They're coming in this direction but not here specifically."

"Alright start hunting them down with Aven and Mephisto tomorrow, for today you just need to level up the newbies." I replied before walking away towards the woods.

I noticed that one of the warrior goblins started following me, I pretended not to notice him because I wanted to see what he was up to.

I ran at half speed in the opposite direction of where the humans were sighted.

Once I was about a kilometer away from the cave I stopped and glanced back at the now exhausted goblin. I guess he had trouble keeping up with me.

I attempted to fly and failed.

I've had the fly skill for 2 years but before I wasn't in a place you could use it per say.

After about an hour I managed to take off and stay in the air for a moment before dropping to the ground.

I wiped the sweat off my brow and took a look at the little goblin who was still trying to hide from me, he was punching a tree repeatedly, he seemed to have gotten bored of watching me fail to fly.

I watched him for a moment before he reached forward and touched the air, after a moment he shone with a bright light.

"Fucking hell" I whispered

It seems Titan didn't tell them to wait to choose a class, this little guy looked to have chosen randomly.

When the light stopped shining he stood about a foot taller he was holding a dark staff and had a skull mask on aswell as a purple and black cloak.

"Now what in the fuck is that." I muttered

He looked at himself and then looked up at me, we made eye contact for a few seconds before his eyes widened and he try to run away.

"Nope little guy I already caught you." I said appearing in front of him.

He fell back in surprise and stuttered out "Y-Your ex-exalted gra-grace."

Now it was my turn to be surprised, I hadn't been called that in two years.

"What's your class little guy." I asked him while helping him up.

He swallowed hard and then said "I'm a cultist your liege."

It all makes sense to me now, the reason he's speaking to me so formally is because he's a worshiper of the demon king.

"When you selected your class did you learn who I was?" I asked still unsure of how he found out I was the prince.

"U-Um yes lord Azaizel." He replied

I looked him up and down before saying "Zai is fine, let's go back I need to make sure the rest of you goblin level up into warriors."

He nodded and we started running at half speed this time he was me following considerably easier.

We ran for around 2 minutes until we made it back to the cave.

When we walked out of the tree line we saw 7 fully armed warriors with their swords drawn standing in front of Titan.

At first I though the goblins might've leveled up but after a moment I realized that they were human warriors, or actually mercenaries it seemed.

Behind them stood merchants who were shaking apparently from fear of Titan, which makes sense because Titans subclass transformed him into a 7ft tall behemoth with a massive sword.

"Well gentlemen this is gonna be fun don't you think?" I said grinning....
