Ch 12 A child

waking up from his sleep Jin-Woo looks at the rising sun on the horizon. He covered his mouth and yawn taking a small piece of meat from his inventory he places it in his mouth and chews it.

Getting off Fenrir's fur he stretches his body from top to bottom. After stretching Jin-Woo lay on the grass before doing some push-ups.

The muscles from his arms towards his torso to his back move along with him. As they showed his athletic build that could shame anyone. He begone to sweat as he quickly finishes 200 push-ups before doing Curl-ups.

Laying on his back he put his arms on his chest before lifting half of his body up the ground before starting it all over again. Finishing the curl-ups he got up from the grass before squatting.

He did 200 of each one before he looks at Fenrir and started to run towards the west. He needed to run 10 or more kilometers before finishing the quest.

He kept on running passing the trees like a ghost that quickly appear and quickly disappear. After 2 hours of constant running Jin-Woo stops his trachs as he breathes a small amount of air.

*Huff* "Haa I'm a little bit tired but not like the first time," Jin-Woo said as he claimed his rewards from the system. He got a D rank dungeon key like the last one he got a few days ago.

"Another D-rank dungeon key looks like I can't fight a C rank dungeon yet if the system isn't giving it to me" *Sigh "Well let's hurry buddy we're close to our destination, " Jin-Woo said petting Fenrir right beside him before hopping on his back.

Fenrir dash forwards as Jin-Woo was thinking to himself. 'it's got to be near here. The elves did say that it was a few hours of walk towards the goblin settlement. Meaning it was close by at the elven kingdom'

As he was thinking Fenrir smelled something in the air. Looking at him Jin-Woo pet Fenrir as his buddy dash towards its location.

At a river side a small roblin child could be seen crying as he was fought on a trap set by someone.

*Sniff* *Huff*

The child cried as he heard a sound of bushes. Slowly the goblin raises its head to be meet with a giant wolf staring at him. The child was shaking "S..Stay back" Said the child in terror.

Jin-Woo who was above Fenrir hops out of his back landing in front of the goblin. Kneling on his knee he was now eye level of the small goblin child.

"Hello there little child" He said with a smile as the goblin tense his muscles. "W...What do you want" Said the childmisunderstanding that Jin-Woo was the one who setup the trap.

Looking at the child Jin-Woo thaought of something and smiled. He grip the trap opened freeing the goblin. "There you go Im Jin-Woo little child" *Chuckles* "Don't worry Im not going to do anything" Jin-Woo said as the goblin slowly putdown its guard.

"W...why are you helping me?" The child ask

"Well I can't just leave someone trap right?" He ask with a small smile.

"Hmm" The child nodd its head as she look back down. (A/N: Goblins looks like the one in the anime "that one time i got reincarnated as a slime")

Smilling Jin-Woo stand up from the ground trying to help the child to stand only to fall again. Jin-Woo cought her before she fell down completely.

"Are you ok?" He ask

"y...yea" She said as the child look around her.

"Are you trying to find some thing?" Jin-Woo ask her as he took out some animal hide from his inventory. He wrap it around the child wound. "There better" He said with a smile before standing up.

She nod her head at him. "Y..Yes i...Im trying to find my knife" She said still looking around. Raising one of his eye brows Jin-Woo looks back at Fenrir. "Go find it buddy"

* Happy bark noise*

Fenrir bark at Jin-Woo hapilly before sniffing the ground as he sercules around them before stoping a few feet away from them. Walking forward Jin-Woo bent down saw a small knife at the ground.

He took it and walktowards the child. "Here you go little child" He said with a smile as he handed the knife at the child.

"T..Thank you" She said with a small bow.

"No problem" Jin-Woo said as he look around him before turning back to Fenrir. "Find there settlement buddy" He said as Fenrir nod his head and started to leave.

Sitting don to the ground he look at the child once again. "So little one why ar you here all alone?" He ask.

"W...Well my mother was sick and I wanted to find here some herbs" She said looking down the ground almost crying.

"Your very brave" Jin-Woo said he isn't lying going around the forest alone is brave as there is wild beast roming around the place.

"But i think your mother would be worried for you" Jin-Woo said to her as she was smiling at what he said but look down after as he said about her mother.

*Grumble*

Her stomach crumbles in hunger as her face push a little. Shaking his head Jin-Woo took out some meat from his inventory before handing it to the child. "Here you go little on eat your feel" He said with a smile.

The child took the stitch with some cook meat in it and begone to eat it not before saying thank to jin-Woo. "Thank you very much" She said not stoping or shuteringon her words.

As both of them eat Fenrir was running around the woods until he smell the same sent as the small child. He followed the sent until he saw a small village of goblins well more like just a cave. They live inside a cave.

Fenrir hides behind the bush as he look at them Fenrir desides to come back to Jin-Woo. He turned around and begone to leave them alone. No one saw him dash away from them.

As Jin-Woo look at the child who finish his what he gave him he took out another one and hand it over to her. "Heres some more if you like"

"Thank you very much" She said with a happy smile on her face as she begone to eat it hapilly like it was the last time she was eating.

Cureauty took over Jin-Woo. "I don't want to be rude but can you tell me why are you eating like it is your last" He ask her.

She look down. "Well Mr. Jin-Woo o..our goblin tribe dosent get any meat for about a week as we normally just eat what we saw and a alote of beast is in this forest so most of us dosent go 100 meters away from home" She said.

"Hmm" Jin-Woo nod his head as he turned around to meet Fenrir looking at him while wagging his taild. "Found them buddy?" He ask as Fenrir nod his head.

Jin-Woo smiled and look at the child. "Well then little one better we get you home" He said as he carried her and hop on Fenrirs back. "Go buddy" He said as the child was frighten.
