6. Where to go now?

David adressed all his problems which were mostly about, where they would be going, what they would be doing and so on, David thought that they would be settling down near another water source and living that way until one or both of them were strong enough, oh boy was he wrong.

After a lengthy conversation about all the countries in the planet, both in this continent and in the other continents, and when I say lengthy I mean lengthy, Benjamin started to explain what kind of policies they had when dealing with fugitives from other countries, jumped to other laws that might barely include them and then jumped to literally had nothing to do with either of them, ended up explaining most of the countries both internal and external views, and affairs. After all this was done he said this one sentence that made David almost go mentally insane.

"None of this really matters though since we will be going to the college in the middle of the continent, as that would be where you could get powerful the fastest and also make some friends or allies as I would say it. It is a long long road though, about four months worth of travel."(Benjamin)

"I was supposed to go the college of All, but doesn't the college take only people of ages between 18-24, I'm 16 and a half there is still one and a half year left before my 18th birthday, don't tell me we will be waiting for that long."(David)

"There is a talent group that accepts anyone from age 7 to 70 in the hopes that they could nurture the young people from a younger age and also to make sure they don't waste the older talented people who became aware of their talents later in life, as you know people live 250 years in average since leveling up increases lifespan, because of this even a 70 years old person can be of great help for a long time."(Benjamin)

As they kept going through the forest every once in a while they would see some animals, which david would have to kill, and there were even small low grade monsters on the way, such as goblins and whatnot. David was also able to beat those creatures too, and thus given the job to actually beat the creatures, sometimes there would be more than one up to four of these creatures, at those times Benjamin would help to keep two of them at bay while David would kill the other monsters.

They travelled and travelled for about two weeks before they got tot the city that Benjamin previously explained to David, of course they weren't stupid enough to go into a city two weeks after they killed the top brass of God Kings army. Thus they took a bit of a longer route around the city and kept moving, it was about 4 days later when they ran into another settlement.

This was a village, the shabbiest, smallest village you could find probably. Benjamin and David wondered if this place could even be called a village, they came to the agreement that this place could be called nothing else since the smallest settlement they knew of was a village. They decided there wouldn't be any problems of them going in to this village, so they went in to have an actual bed to sleep in for one day. Everyone was acting friendly, They thought that this was because they didn't get too many visitors in town, and found the only inn at the village, they rented themselves two rooms since they didn't have any rooms with 2 separate beds, after putting all their stuff down, they went out, sit at one of the three tables in the place and ordered some food.

They were eating merrily when the bartender, also the owner of the place, came towards them.

"I'm gonna skip the pleasantries, You look like a strong man, and our village has a problem that we can't solve by ourselves, would you be willing to help us out."(Bartender)

"I'll need some more details but if the pay is worthy of the job why not"(Benjamin)

"So there is an orc settlement, we don't know how many orcs there are however we know that these orcs are also breeding goblins to do the dirty work for them. We don't have much gold in this village, we gathered some money to deal with this problem, we have about 400 gold and a few silvers worth of money that we can pay you, I know that it is lower than what you would nor"(Bartender)

Benjamin cut off the Bartender and said

"We'll solve the orc problem don't worry 200 gold is enough you can give the rest back to the villagers."(Benjamin)

As Benjamin said this, the Bartender started thanking Benjamin again and again and also started crying from happiness.

After the Bartender left, Benjamin turned to David and said

"Guess who has to kill tens of orcs and maybe a hundred or two of goblins."(Benjamin)

"Oh come on you really gonna make me do all the work."(David)

"Hell yes, you need to level up, by the time you finish all these goblins and orcs you would probably be able to level up to level 50 to get your first occupation. You don't need to think, oh will I get a good occupation since occupations you can choose are custom made through your skills and all the skills that you have leveled before, and I was at level 500 something close combat when I got my first occupation and it was an epic grade occupation, you'll probably be able to get a unique occupation created just for you since your close combat skill is at level 449 and bound to level up some more over 500 and since you also have the blessing of the universe you know hot it goes, the chosen ones get better occupations, by the way this time I won't be there to babysit you you have to learn to do things on your own, just know that the head orc is at least level 65 since they even breed goblins."(Benjamin)

"Alright seems good to me, I'll be careful and not get in too much of a trouble."(David)

After saying this david checked his character sheet to regulate a plan

David than started brain storming.

So I am really fast, and one of my punches will definitely kill even the most powerful goblin. I have no idea how powerful orcs are, but considering the most powerful one is at least level 65, I can make an estimate of about an average level of 55 since there would be wimps and powerful orcs, the lowest level orcs I can fight and kill pretty easily in this case however more than 2 of them would give me a hard time. In order to cut the head of the snake I need to first whittle it down from the back then. If I get over level 45 I will be able to beat a level 65 orc I presume.

After his brainstorming he went to the way the bartender said the goblins and orcs came from, as he started walking he didn't see any orcs or goblins but it was pretty clear they had passed through here before as their footprints had basically created a road of sorts. He kept following the road-like structure and after 10 or so minutes he saw his first enemy more like first 5 enemies.

He saw that 5 goblins were talking in between themselves, they were creating noises like they were being strangled and as they talked with every few words, spit and all kinds of nasty shit came out from their mouth. David was used to goblins by now, they smelled pretty bad and they were always talking like they were about to start fighting in between themselves and they were easy to kill.

David sneaked up on them until there was less than 10 meters remaining then he started charging towards one of the goblins, before any of the goblins were able to react David managed to get one punch to connect and he used all the status effects in the off-chance the goblin lived.

Expectedly the goblin died from the punch and all the goblins realized that they were attacked by something so they draw their weapons started to swing them with fervor, they had some degree of intelligence but no much. As they swung their weapons, David was able to dodge almost all of the attacks and he kept on punching too. He got hit once by a club which did 50 damage and that was the end of five goblins, and as the fifth goblin died he leveled up and distributed his 4 stat points equally.
