Reincarnation Sim Game-Chapter 4 – First Mission

A girl with blonde hair and small stature was bandaging a boy’s leg wound. Her tears kept flowing, and her face looked so tired. The boy had closed his eyes and didn’t move. Fortunately, he was still breathing. However, that does not mean everything is fine. The boy’s body was covered with more bandages.

“Please, please, god.” the girl lightly held the wound on her friend’s leg. There should be light coming out of her hand. She was a healer, but her mana had run out. “We need your help, oh my god. Give us safety. Give me the strength to help my friend. I beg you…”

“Shut up, Hannah!” A girl with red hair in pigtails snapped. Sitting in the corner of the room, she held a bow and carried an empty quiver. Just like the healer, the girl also had a tired face. “Your God can’t help us at a time like this! They never existed! I’m sick of hearing your moaning about them!”

“Hey, don’t be like that, Nora. Without Hannah, Grant might be dead.” A young man with brown hair sighed. He looked out through the window. “It’s getting late. Let’s hope the goblins won’t find us. We’ll spend the night here to rest, then leave in the morning.”

Nora got up from her seat and looked at the brown-haired boy. “Stop pretending to be our leader, Alex.” The girl’s tone was so cynical. “You’re the one that forced us to go to that goblin’s lair. I told you, we’re still beginners. Hell, we’re not even eighteen yet! We can’t fight them! Yeah, goblins are a weak type of monster! But they work in large numbers!”

Alex closed his eyes and rubbed his bruised face. “Please, don’t start, Nora. I know you’re frustrated, but we’re all tired. Your loud voice can also invite the goblins. Please, calm down.”

“Calm down!? You told me to calm down!? We almost died, Alex!” Instead of lowering her voice, Nora’s shouted even louder. “If those goblins find this place, then we’re done!”

Nora kept nagging, and Alex clutched his head. Hannah, the healer, tried to calm the archer, but things got even more chaotic. Nora shouted more intensely. Foul words began to come out of her mouth.

“I knew that! I was wrong!” Alex snapped. “But, weren’t you part of all this too!? Instead of running towards a populated village, you brought us to this abandoned place!”.

Nora gasped. Her eyes bulged. “Are you crazy!? The villagers don’t have good fighting skills, so they turn to people like us for help!”

“Please, don’t fight!” Hannah shouted along. Her tears were getting heavier.

The bickering almost continued, but the three teenagers were jolted by a loud thud near them.

“Ouch…” A young woman with long brown hair was lying face down in the center of the room. She got up with a grimace, cleaned her clothes, and then looked at the wooden walls and scattered dusty furniture. And lastly, she looked at the adventurers who stared back at her in confusion.

The young lady waved her hand, still grimacing. “Hello, I’m Elise…. I came here to help you…. It’s a God’s order…. I guess?”

“If you talk like that, they won’t believe you.” Raymund’s voice made Elise startled and dazed. “Ah, only you can hear me, Elise.”

“Did you also escape from those goblins?” Nora frowned.

Grimacing again, Elise answered. “Well, before I was here, I was in God’s place…. Ah, before that, I was dead…. Then God ordered me to come here… Errr…. Looks like you guys don’t believe me…. Well, of course…. Even these words that come out of my mouth sound absurd to me.”

Raymund could only sigh. The adventurers exchanged glances upon hearing Elise’s groggy laugh.

“Looks like you’re being chased by goblins too. And maybe because of fear or something, you can’t think straight.” Nora sighed too. “Unfortunately, we can’t do anything else. We’ve been too tired from fighting since morning. Our food supplies have also run out. It’s all because of this handsome guy.”

Seeing Nora pointing at him with a disdainful expression, Alex was about to snap again, but he held back when Hannah shook her head at him.

“You guys are talking about goblins. What exactly are they?” Elise asked with a still awkward gesture.

The adventurers fell silent, while Raymund just sighed for a second time.

“Poor her. Looks like she was too traumatized that she forgot what a goblin is.” Nora whispered to her friends. “There’s no way someone doesn’t know what a goblin is.”

“Hey, don’t be so loud. She can hear you.” Hannah replied.

Elise could only grimace stiffly again.

“You really don’t know what a goblin is?” Raymund asked in disbelief. “Have you never seen them in games or read about them in fantasy novels?”

“I just know it’s the title of an old television drama show…. I think?”

“Don’t reply to me in front of them, dumb*ss.” Raymund huffed in annoyance. “They’ll be even more convinced that you’re crazy.”

The adventurers gave a sympathetic look to Elise. They really thought that Elise did have a mental disorder.

“Goblins are a kind of monster that walks on two legs. Usually, their skin is green.” The God explained. “Instead of standing still and waiting for the goblins to attack, you’d better check the perimeter around you. It would be very advantageous to understand the ins and outs of that place. Maybe you will fight there later.”

“Ah.” Startled at hearing the word ‘monster,’ Elise tried to calm herself down. However, her voice still trembled. She then spoke to the adventurers, “I’ll check the surroundings.”

Elise walked towards the open window with a stiff motion, and Alex accompanied her.

“So, did something happen in this place?” Elise asked. “I don’t think it’s has been abandoned long. The dust isn’t too thick.”

“Our guess is that this place was attacked and looted by the goblins. You can see the damage to the other houses. If you look closely, this house also has a lot of bloodstains.” Alex answered.

Elise gulped, then turned her head to the inside of the house. All this time, she hadn’t noticed. Some parts of the walls and floors are decorated with blackish-red stains.

“Looks like the soldiers are busy taking care of the things in the cities. They don’t have time to help the villages. That’s why other villagers nearby pay adventurers to exterminate the goblins.” Raymund made a hypothesis.

“Errrr… Maybe this question sounds inappropriate for me to ask…” Elise stiffened even more. “Where….”

“The corpses of the villagers?” Alex chimed in before Elise continued. “Usually, the people who died would be brought by the goblins for food. Meanwhile, the villagers who could survive would flee.”

Elise covered her mouth with her hand. Something from her stomach felt like it was going up to her throat, making her want to throw up. She is an ordinary girl who just graduated from high school. It was insanity that he had to go on a mission against those dangerous monsters.

“I see.” Elise sighed, then leaned out of the window, checking out the houses far more broken than the ones she was in.

“Careful, this part of the wall is almost destroyed, maybe because of the battle…”

Alex didn’t finish his sentence when the part of the wooden wall that Elise’s arm was leaning on collapsed. The young woman fell forward, and Alex tried to catch her. However, instead of getting Elise’s body, Alex accidentally grabs the back of that woman’s pants.

Elise’s pants and her panties were pulled down as her body hit the ground with a thud.

“Ouch…” Just about to get up, Elise was stunned. She felt a colder breeze in her lower body. Not only that, but her ears could also hear the laughter from Raymund.

Elise looked down at her lower body. Her pants had fallen almost to her knees, showing her bare smooth butt in full glory. Alex, still holding the woman’s pants, could only freeze.

Elise’s face turned red in an instant.

“Kyaaa!!!” Elise screamed hard, hastily rose, and pulled her pants up.

“Sorry, I didn’t mean to do it!” Alex panicked, and his two friends came up to check what was going on.

Still adjusting her pants in a hurry, Elise was stunned again. Her gaze was fixed on a passage a few meters away from her. There was one green creature with a very short body, pointed ears, a bald head, and a wrinkled face.

A goblin.
