“King… of Goblins?!!!”

  Those words struck Tian like a thunderbolt—his mind nearly short-circuited.

  The woman standing before him was the King of Goblins? That was utterly absurd.

  Seeing his reaction, the Goblin Slayer let out a soft chuckle. “Just kidding. Want to know my true identity? Let’s step into that grove over there and have a little private conversation.”

  Tian’s instincts screamed danger—this woman was terrifying, absolutely not someone to mess with!

  Go into the woods with her?

  She’d probably eat him alive—after all, she had just devoured someone right in front of him.

  “I know what you’re afraid of. Yes, I am the Goblin Slayer. I hunt powerful goblins, mate with them, and then kill them when I’m done.”

  Her eyes blazed with desire once again, like a succubus overtaken by lust.

  “But so far, none of them were worthy. You, though… you’re different. You qualify.”

  She spoke seriously, her gaze overflowing with lust.

  Tian swallowed hard. This woman was far too unpredictable and mysterious.

  Taking her home to toy with at his leisure? Maybe—but only if he could outwit her first.

  The Goblin Slayer continued, “You have the body of a low-tier goblin, but intelligence to rival a Goblin King… It’s thrilling! Please, say yes. Give yourself to me. Let me have you!”

  As she spoke, she started walking toward him, hands reaching out.

  Is this woman insane, or just toying with me?

  Tian quickly backed away—he had no intention of tangling with this dangerous woman.

  What kind of woman behaved like this?

  And to make matters worse, she was stunningly beautiful.

  Tian didn’t need a mirror to know—with his ugly goblin face, no woman would ever want him.

  The Goblin Slayer stared at him with pleading, hungry eyes. “I promise I won’t kill you. I want to stay with you. I want to see what kind of existence you’ll become! Come on, darling!”

  She chased after him while talking.

  The remaining Greater Goblins hesitated—wanting to help, but terrified of this woman.

  How embarrassing… the first time a beauty like this showed interest in him, and he was too afraid to accept!

  Tian was speechless.

  So there they were—one human woman, one goblin—chasing each other around Little Huan in a bizarre game of tag.

  “Give yourself to me! Let me have every part of you!”

  The Goblin Slayer shouted excitedly from behind.

  Her eyes seemed to turn into hearts.

  From a distance, Leah and the others came closer, totally confused. “Boss, what’s going on?”

  “What are you all waiting for? Save me! This woman is a complete lunatic!”

  Tian yelled for help.

  Leah looked awkward. “But Boss… you don’t seem to be in danger. Isn’t this human just your type? Why not give it a try?”

  At that moment, Gob Bene, Gob Kuang, and the others finally woke up.

  Seeing Leah wasn’t helping, Tian shouted, “You fools! Get over here and block this maniac!”

  “Boss! Don’t hurt my lord! Come after me instead!”

  Gob Kuang shook his head vigorously, took in the situation, and charged forward.

  Unlawfully taken from Royal Road, this story should be reported if seen on Amazon.

  Hearing that, Tian felt a strange pang—even if someone had to die, he didn’t want this fool to steal the spotlight.

  But Gob Kuang suddenly froze mid-charge.

  He stood there motionless, like a robot.

  Gob Bene and Gob Tian, who had just crawled up, did the same.

  Tian sensed something was very, very wrong. “What are you all doing? Have you lost your minds?”

  “It’s no use struggling. They’re under my control now… hehehe!”

  The Goblin Slayer even let out a classic villain’s laugh.

  Tian wanted to cry. So this was how it felt—to be the victim.

  She grabbed him in one swift motion and pulled him into her arms.

  “What do you want from me, you lunatic?!”

  Tian struggled desperately, but he was terrified she’d use the same trick on him as she had on the others—he might not survive it.

  He didn’t dare go all out.

  But as he gazed into her emerald eyes, filled with hearts, and felt her warm breath, it almost seemed as if she meant no harm.

  No—she was definitely dangerous.

  But it was the kind of danger that no man would truly fear.

  Who could complain about a gorgeous woman throwing herself at him?

  “Got you, my cute little thing.”

  The Goblin Slayer smiled triumphantly.

  The goblin she had been searching for had finally appeared—she was not about to let him go.

  As her armor came off…

  She revealed a flawless, pale body, modestly wrapped in white bandages around the necessary areas.

  Tian’s own desires were ignited, but he still asked uncertainly, “Are you serious, beautiful?”

  It was the first time he had ever hesitated in front of a woman.

  …

  Leah and the others—including Sisuel and the barely surviving adventurers—were utterly dumbfounded.

  One moment they were fighting… and now it had turned into this.

  Everyone’s jaws dropped—some even felt their upper jaws were about to fall off.

  “No way… the Goblin Slayer… why? And she’s that beautiful?!”

  From a distance, Sisuel clutched his head, absolutely stunned.

  He had seen many beauties in the capital—but none compared to the Goblin Slayer.

  This whole development was downright bizarre.

  More like a beast—no, more like a goblin.

  Desire above all else.

  Completely unburdened by human morals or restraint.

  A long while later…

  The Goblin Slayer reappeared, fully armored again.

  She picked up her helmet and sword, clearly satisfied.

  Tian couldn’t believe it—he had been completely overwhelmed by the power of the Goblin King. He hadn’t been able to resist at all.

  Even though his potential had reached its limit, his actual strength had yet to break through.

  “Boss, what happened? I’ve never seen you taken down like that before!”

  Leah was shocked and quickly helped him up.

  Faced with her question, Tian was too embarrassed to explain. “Just a miscalculation. Keep an eye on that woman—I have a lot of questions for her!”

  How was he supposed to admit something like this?

  He even considered reporting it to the authorities—victim: himself.

  What on earth was happening?!

  That damn goblin hierarchy—an authority he couldn’t resist.

  At that moment, the Goblin Slayer simply stood there, showing no intention of leaving.

  When she saw Tian come out, she smiled sweetly. “Hello, darling~”

  “You!”

  Tian’s expression twitched uncomfortably.

  He ignored her flirtatious nonsense for the moment.

  Then he barked, “Let’s move! Catch that guy who ran off earlier!”

  A series of swift movements followed.

  A few goblins rushed out and pinned Sisuel down.

  Gob Bene had recovered too. He gathered up the human kebabs and headed back toward the cave.

  This battle had been a major loss—all because of that lunatic.

  Fifty Greater Goblins dead.

  At least the Hero-tier goblins had survived.

  Outside the cave, the Goblin Slayer continued to follow him closely—showing no signs of leaving.

  Tian asked irritably, “What do you want? This is a goblin nest. If you go in, you’ll have to face the consequences yourself.”

  “I told you—I’m going to stay and watch you grow. As for consequences… you handle them.”

  As she spoke, she reached out and traced a finger across Tian’s chest.

  Leah and the others glanced over, then quickly looked away, struggling to hold back laughter.

  It was the first time they had seen Tian look so embarrassed.

  Tian snapped, “What are you all staring at? Get inside and hide—don’t expose our location!”

  Soon only he and the Goblin Slayer were left at the entrance.

  Tian realized the cave could no longer remain hidden—she almost certainly already knew its location.

  He asked coldly, “Who are you, really? What was that strange power? How can you control my subordinates… and even me?”

  He hesitated on that last part.

  If no one else was around, he’d be too ashamed to say it out loud.

  The Goblin Slayer paused, then said, “If I tell you everything… will you let me stay with you guys?”

  “Talk first!”

  Tian demanded impatiently.

  If she weren’t so valuable, he would have already gone all out and fought her to the death.

  The Goblin Slayer paused for a moment. “My identity? It’s a long story. My mother was human—captured by goblins. And not just any tribe, but one of the strongest ever.”

  “You know what happens next.”

  “But somehow… she became pregnant. And gave birth to me.”

  Tian’s eyes widened in disbelief. “You’re… a goblin’s offspring? But why do you look almost completely human?”

  “That’s the unexpected part. I was born of the Goblin King—the one who violated my mother.”

  The Goblin Slayer’s expression grew solemn.

  These memories were deeply painful for her.

  Tian was stunned. It was too bizarre—impossible to believe!

  The offspring of the Goblin King?

  Impossible.

  He had been a goblin long enough to know: the higher the tier, the more difficult it was to reproduce—which meant slower power growth.

  That was why goblins had remained bottom-tier monsters for thousands of years.

  Even Variants could barely reproduce.

  A top-tier Goblin King? The odds were slimmer than winning the lottery.

  The Goblin Slayer said solemnly, “I know you don’t believe it. Even I could hardly believe I survived.”

  “But… hehehe… I’m the one who personally killed the Goblin King! Over ten years ago, he tried to force himself on me. The moment he let his guard down, I slit his throat.”

  Her tone became dark and savage.

  Like a true goblin.

  She killed the Goblin King?

  Tian was shocked, but he could guess why: goblins had no concept of family or ethics.

  And she was immune to goblin abilities—no wonder.
