Chapter 85 Taking Back The Wheel
\'what is wrong with me?......\'
\'why did I shrivel up when I saw the four Goblin generals?...\'
\'fear?.....\'
\'that is what it was\',
\'that is why I crouched on the ground\',
\'but why?...\'
\'i had gotten stronger, the past me cannot even hold a candle to the current me\'.
\'i entered the gate and successfully inherited the fire guardian\'s legacy\',
\'it has made me stronger, amplified my strength to an height I could only dream off\'.
\'I have gotten really stronger...\'
\'hence....\'
\'for what reasons am I still being like this?....\'
\'do I wish to be pitied?....\'
\'i was captured and tortured so what?\'.
\'I Killed Tarja\'s mother, doesn\'t she deserve to be pitied as well?......\'
\'i do not deserve being pitied by anybody\',
\'despite having the power to change myself, I let myself be submissive to fear and trauma\'.
\'sure I have been hurt and scarred, but that alone isn\'t good enough as a reason for me to remain scared\'.
\'I worked towards inheriting the fire guardian\'s legacy, but that wasn\'t the only thing I needed\'.
\'what use is a legacy if the mind behind the wheel is weak willed?...\'
\'it doesn\'t matter how much stronger I become, so long as my mentality is fragile, I will always remain a nobody\'.
\'it doesn\'t take me being born special for me to be special, it takes me working towards being special, to make myself special\'.
\'a genius isn\'t made in a day, a genius is groomed into becoming a genius\'.
\'no matter how tiny I am in this vast universe, I should never disregard my existence\'.
\'i matter, not to anyone, but to myself\'.
\'i have been traumatized by the Goblin, but I shouldn\'t let that define who I am going to be\'.
\'i shouldn\'t let one obstacle define me as an entity\'.
\'what I should do is let the obstacle be a demonstration to how strong I am for not getting pulled down by it\'.
\'i, am strong\'.
\'Oracle...\'
[.......].
[welcome back master, you called].
\'thank you for being there for me, you can switch places with me now\'.
*** BEFORE
The first Goblin general, massaged his shoulder by spraining it forward and backward.
"alright, shall we get started".
He says as he suddenly closed the distance and appeared before the Goblin.
The Goblin, swung his fist at the first general who easily caught it with his palm wide open.
"hmmm...., you have got one hell of a punching power despite having a little body" (first general).
The first Goblin general elongated his hand and jabbed at the Goblin, with his fist covering the whole body of the tiny Goblin.
The Goblin\'s back hit the wall, and dust puffed out from the wall.
"hmm..." (first general).
The first Goblin general moved out of the way and in turn, the Goblin landed there with force causing a crater on the ground.
"first general, it seems you are losing your touch as you have yet to damage any of his limbs" (second general).
The first general despite hearing the words of the second general, completely ignored it as he had his hands full with the Goblin.
The Goblin had erected out thorns from the ground the first general is currently standing on after his evasion from the Goblin.
The Goblin had used himself as a bait by landing where the first general was standing, knowing fully well that the first general would have no trouble evading him.
The first general had evaded and in doing so, he had played into the hands of the Goblin.
He grabbed hold of the vines crawling up on his body and started tearing it all apart.
ripping it apart was no use as the vines keep on regenerating fast enough on his body and squeezing the life out of him.
The first general dawned on his poker face and remained calm the whole time.
Despite being in danger of being squeezed to death, he showed no hint of uneasiness or nervousness on the situation, if anything, he was too calm and cool about it.
"your persistence is truly commendable, Goblin" (first general).
The first general banged his leg on the ground, and roared out gallantly.
His body emitting sparks, as the grounds began to shake.
The sparks coming out from his body got thicker and thicker until it took the form of thunderclaps raveging through his body.
His muscles bulged out more and visible veins running through his thick flesh.
The vines that were wrapping itself around him, died after being exposed to the thunderclaps emitting from his body.
he touched the withered vines and crushed it into pieces, then looked at the Goblin with an alarming expression.
"now little one, let\'s have some fun with each other now, shall we" (first general).
The three generals who were at the rear, saw the changes the first general had undergone, and all went ahead to sit on the ground.
"ho, ho, ho. There he goes, there he goes. He never ceases to amaze me with that form of his" (second general).
"he isn\'t called the second Goblin general for nothing" (third general).
"guess we can just sit back now and wait for him to get the job done" (second general).
"I do have to say though, it really sucks not being able to participate, I would have loved to get my hands on the Goblin myself and slowly squeeze the life out of him" (second general).
With the words he had just uttered, the second Goblin general realized once again how he is not suited for going easy on his opponent.
"maybe if you get to learn self restraint like the first Goblin general over there, you will get to have your chance" (third general).
"that looks like too much hard work, I will pass on it. Besides, you are one to talk when you are in the same category as I when it comes to not being able to hold back" (second general).
The first general pointed his big finger at the Goblin in his front and smirked.
"come on Goblin, what\'s keeping you" (first general).
