Goblin Workshop In Me Chapter 104

104.

Silence. It was the kind of perfect silence where one wouldn't even hear a breath.

The Goblins, who were wondering whether to stop Eola and Doran from fighting or go into the caves and work, looked as if they had seen a ghost.

Doran stared up with her mouth wide open. Eola just frowned.

“A human? How?”

“I'm asking, why the fuck are you doing that to her?”

“What are you saying? You sound like an animal crying.”

Eola pulled the knife he caught. However, it didn't move a single millimeter due to the difference in their strengths. She was nervous.

“Since when…? No, it doesn't make any sense. How are you like this?”

“Lord!”

“Lord!”

Doran and Gobung shouted at the same time.

'Lord!' He could understand it even if he had lost his power. Wasn't it something he had heard enough to make a scab in his ear?

When Eola heard them calling him Lord, she frowned. She hurriedly let go of the knife and pulled herself out. She then pulled up the sword that had been stuck on the floor.

“Lord? You're the one who managed this place before the king? I heard you're dead?”

“Let go of your sword.”

Ko Byeong-gap said so and made a gesture with the same meaning.

Eola understood the meaning. However, instead of letting go of the sword, she grew more nervous. She growled and spoke.

“I don't know how you're alive, but nothing changes. The king said that all Ains, except the Sarahons, were not entitled to enter the land. So I will take over his will and condemn you.”

Eola rolled her eyes. Her subordinates were nowhere to be seen since they were currently managing other places.

By the way, she sent three people to the wall. How did he break through the surveillance?

'That guy is strong. I can't confront him alone.'

After a brief agony, she shouted out of the blue.

“Everyone, be ready for battle! We're going to attack him in unison!”

Her sharp shout rang loudly.

The Goblins obeyed her orders and immediately prepared for combat.

“What are you doing? Why are you all standing around like idiots?”

“Surround him! Grab a pickaxe!”

“Hey, all of you!”

“Doran. Gobung. It's been a while. But why are you guys looking like that?”

Ko Byeong-gap said playfully, waving his hand. Doran looked like she was about to cry.

Even in her embarrassment, Eola aimed at Ko Byeong-gap's gap. She rushed in like a thunderbolt and unleashed a sharp slash at the defenseless Ko Byeong-gap.

“A spoiled bitch.”

Hit!

“Gasp!”

His arm wasn't even visible. Eola was slapped in the face by his sword and flew away. Her cheeks swelled red.

“Ugh… Ugh.”

Eola spread like a stoned frog.

“Lord! Whoo!”

Doran, whose face was filled with sorrow, came running and hugged Ko Byeong-gap. He smiled and patted her back.

On the other hand, the other Goblins weren't willing to come. They couldn't understand the situation itself.

What the hell was he? He was definitely the Lord they knew, but he was not the Lord. Different messages from their heads and their hearts worked as a sense of separation, confusing them.

“Is he really… the Lord?”

Gobung managed to say. Ko Byeong-gap only understood 'Lord.'

He didn't know it would be so uncomfortable that they couldn't communicate. He took Doran out of his arms and spoke.

“Ea.”

“What?”

“Ea. Ea. Ea, where is she?”

“Are you talking about Ea?”

“Oh, yeah, yeah. Where's Ea?”

“What's wrong with her?”

Doran tilted her head.

Ko Byeong-gap said, poking into the air with his fingers.

“Ea. Bring her here. Call me Ea.”

“What's wrong with you, Lord? I don't understand.”

“Ea! Ea! Ea! Here! Ea! Ah… This is driving me crazy.”

Suddenly, Gobung spoke as if he had noticed something.

“Doran! I think he's asking us to bring Ea.”

“Ea! Ea here? Call Ea here? Is that right?”

Doran asked, copying Ko Byeong-gap's behavior. He nodded quickly.

“Oh, yeah! Bring her here!”

“Oh, I got it! Please wait a minute!”

Doran ran quickly. Ko Byeong-gap took a cigarette in his mouth and sighed.

“Phew. It's so hard to ask a favor.”

He looked at the Goblin crowd. They looked at Ko Byeong-gap at a certain distance. They didn't try to get close, nor did they try to get any farther.

If it were before, they would've rushed all of a sudden. He laughed bitterly. He said, waving his hands.

“Hey, Gobung! Come here.”

“Uh…”

“Come here, I'm calling.”

Words didn't work, but gestures did. Gobung shrugged and approached. There was a hint of vigilance in him, like a scared puppy.

Ko Byeong-gap patted Gobung's head with a sentimental look on his face. The Goblin shrank a little, and yet he didn't shy away.

After a while, Doran returned, with Ea following behind. Ea found Ko Byeong-gap and opened her big eyes bigger. After falling to the floor, she grabbed his hand and greeted him with pleasure.

For a while, she poured out her words like an explosion. Of course, Ko Byeong-gap didn't understand a word, but he nodded his head every now and then and spoke when it was appropriate.

“Ea.”

“Oh, yes, yes!”

“Me. Words. Ah… Talking. I need your help.”

“What? What? What's wrong with you?”

“Ea. I think the Lord can't speak our language.”

“You can't talk?”

She gasped, then suddenly flicked her finger.

“Oh! So that's why you asked me for help?”

Ko Byeong-gap had been trying to convey the meaning of his words by making every move. In an instant, Ea grabbed Ko Byeong-gap's arms and nodded slowly.

“I see what you mean. I'll help you. Fortunately, I have a talent for this. My life would be shortened a bit, but… Anyway, wait a little bit.”

Ea's body glowed softly, and the light slowly moved to Ko Byeong-gap. Her ritual didn't take long. When the two regained their colors, Ea's legs relaxed and collapsed as Ko Byeong-gap felt his ears open up.

He quickly assisted Ea.

“Do you understand me now?”

Ko Byeong-gap replied with a sad smile.

“Oh. I can hear you well. Thank you, Ea.”

“Don't mention it.”

“Oh, how did you do that?”

“I broke the language barrier. It's not a very big rule, but I'm still a bit weakened. Will you let me go? I want to lie down.”

Ko Byeong-gap did as she wished.

He got up and looked back at the Goblins, who remained the same. They drew a line and didn't cross into it.

He had a lot to say. He wanted to sit around and chat about what happened and have a meeting on urgent issues. Ko Byeong-gap implied all those emotions.

“What do you see me as? Do you also no longer see me as your Lord?”

“Gobung.”

“Oh, yes!”

“How about you? Are you afraid of me? Do I feel like an enemy?”

“Well, that's…”

“Hey, you idiots!” Doran shouted and took a step forward.

“What are you mumbling about? It's the Lord! It's our Lord! You stupid idiots, you forgot about him!”

“Doran. Do you see me as your Lord?”

“Of course!”

She answered without a hint of concern. He was grateful, but on the other hand, he had doubts.

“Even though I don't have the essence of the Lord anymore?”

“What does that matter…? To be honest with you, the Lord isn't the same as he used to be, but that doesn't mean anything. Because I like Lord Ko Byeong-gap!”

Ko Byeong-gap smiled faintly and stroked Doran's head. He then slowly approached the Goblin crowd. The guys backed up very slightly.

He wasn't in a hurry. He just picked up a pile of potatoes. He muttered in a sad tone.

“Are you eating something like this? And your tools…”

“You traitors! Don't move!”

“Gah!”

Suddenly, he heard a cry out of nowhere. Everyone was surprised and looked at where the sound came from. Eola, who they thought had fainted, had brought her sword to a little boy's neck.

Ko Byeong-gap laughed a little because her cheeks were swollen blue.

“How… How dare you disobey my orders that the king has delegated? This is treason against the king! If I tell the king about this, you're dead!”

She growled in anger. The Goblins shivered with fear.

“I'll give you one last chance. Kill that man. If you do it, I'll let you off the hook for this one.”

“Oh, oh, oh…”

“What are you hesitating about? Kill him now!”

Ko Byeong-gap's eyes proved to be cold. He pointed the sharp edge of his sword at Eola. He was sick and tired of her face, but he didn't give in to her intimidation. She screamed like a thug.

Ko Byeong-gap sighed and muttered.

“The Goblins may be a bit silly, but they care so much about their kind. I liked the way you looked, but… you're haggling with your own people's lives now. Do you even think of them as your kind?”

“Shut up! What does a filthy human like you know?”

“Guys, attack me.”

He said, but the Goblins looked up at him with blank faces. When the Goblins began to mumble, Ko Byeong-gap shouted in aggression.

“What are you skulking about like idiots? Attack me!”

“Oh, no, Lord…”

“Hey. Gobung.”

“Yes…”

“Come and attack me. Do whatever you want, whether it's beating, stabbing, or scratching me. Come on!”

Gobung was about to cry. He trudged over, grabbed Ko Byeong-gap's arm, and brought it to his mouth.

“Ugh. Ugh. Ugh… I'm sorry.”

Gobung bit him with his mouth. He felt the pain delivered to his arm.

Ko Byeong-gap then pointed out several Goblins to attack him. Those who were pointed at almost cried and attacked Ko Byeong-gap.

Wounds were carved all over his body, but that was only for a while.

“I can't do this. I can't do this, Lord!”

“Please, take back the order, Lord!”

The Goblins wept and fell. Ko Byeong-gap smiled satisfactorily.

“You've worked hard. Now, look at me carefully.”

“You… You wretched things! Don't fall! Keep attacking! Kill him!”

“If it's the nature of the Sarahon to put their blade against their own, then…”

“Come on—”

In a blink of an eye… No. It happened in a short span of less than half of that. Ko Byeong-gap threw the potato in his hand and managed to hit Eola right in the eye.

Eola fell, and before she could stand up, rubbing her eyes, Ko Byeong-gap had grabbed her neck. She struggled in fear.

“Ke… Keke!”

“If that's the case, I won't let these children turn into Sarahons.”

“Keeek… What are you talking about…?”

“Everybody, listen!”

He shouted, “The world froze once again. Are you a Sarahon, who treats your people like dog food and sticks knives on the back of their Lord, or are you a benevolent Goblin?!”

“Goblin! I'm a Goblin!”

Doran answered immediately. As she hurried, the other Goblins joined in as well.

“We're Goblins!”

“Yes! We're Goblins!”

“I'm a Goblin!”

“Okay! Then, will you follow the king of Sarahons or the king of the Goblins?”

“I will follow the king of the Goblins!”

“I'll follow Lord!”

“Good! Then I'll be the Goblin Lord from now on. Who has an objection?”

“None!”

The rocky mountain looked as if it was about to tremble at the roar of the Goblins. After a while, a change happened to the Goblins. A small chunk of light came out of their chest and permeated Ko Byeong-gap in unison.

A new hologram appeared in front of Ko Byeong-gap's eyes.

[You have become the Goblin Lord.]

[The fate of the Goblin Lord…… Sook… ^&@!@#^&!]

The hologram malfunctioned. Suddenly, the text changed.

[Freed from the fate bestowed by the previous Lord…]

[The ruined Goblin kingdom of 'Ashvilam' has been opened.]

[Look over all the people as their king.]

“Save me… Please.”

Eola begged in tears, but there was no mercy for her from Ko Byeong-gap. He asked in a dry tone.

“Are you a Sarahon or a Goblin?”

“I… I…”

“I'm sorry, but there is no place for the Sarahons in Ashvilam.”

“Kkkk!”

Ko Byeong-gap cut Eola's throat without hesitation. She dropped with her dying breath.

“What kind of fuss is this…?!”

“Gasp!”

Patra and Niad, who ran in surprise of the mess, swallowed their breath at the sight in front of them. The two women almost suffocated because of his presence.

At that time, Ko Byeong-gap turned his head slowly and looked at the two.

“Are you a Sarahon or a Goblin?”

“What? That, of course, Sarah…”

“Kill them.”

“Kerreuk!”

“Kyaaaah!”

“Ah!”

Not a single one of the five Sarahons of Somnium survived that day.
