Chapter 6 - Skills
Charlus finished his burger and got up. He took out his pocket knife and ventured out. He walked towards the wild end of the lake. He was confident that if there were any goblins, they would be there.
Charlus killed three goblins before reaching his destination. He only needed to kill seven more along with a chieftain.
Charlus heard a lot of sound coming from the inner parts of the forest. He went silently to check and see if it was the goblins.
Charlus had found the entire colony. He was very excited. He first counted the number of goblins.
There were 11 goblins wandering around. The colony was basically a fire and a hut. Charlus guessed that the goblin would be inside the hut. So that meant 11 enemies at the colony. Along with an unknown number of goblins who ventured out.
Charlus checked the levels of the goblins.
[Goblin Lvl 2]
All of them were level 2. So that meant that they were the strength of the tribe and sent the weaker goblins to gather food.
Charlus wasn\'t sure about the strength of these goblins. He wanted to be sure before he attacked. So he waited for one of them to separate from the others for some reason.
Luckily for him, one goblin had gotten a nature\'s call. Charlus followed him but didn\'t get too close to him. When he saw that the goblin was urinating, he was even tempted to leave that goblin. After all, these goblins had no sense of hygiene. Who would want to even touch them after knowing that they covered their hands with urine.
However, Charlus did not want to waste this opportunity either and crept towards the goblin. He stabbed it quickly before it could even turn around.

What is with these disgusting Goblins?! Always dropping these disgusting things. Charlus was tempted to just leave this item but didn\'t. Who knew if it might be useful in the future.
Charlus decided that the goblins weren\'t that strong but it would still be reckless if he charged into the colony. So he decided to wait for the goblins to come out themselves. Like he expected, two goblins came to check why their companion hadn\'t returned yet.
Charlus sneaked behind one of the goblins and stabbed it. The other goblin noticed him but was too late. Charlus flipped the goblin to the ground and killed it. He found that the goblin was barely heavier than the Lvl 1 goblins.

Charlus was excited. He had finally received a skill. And the skill he received was the skill that would help him a lot. Charlus wasn\'t thinking about [Stab]. He was thinking about [Sneak]. He was imagining how it would be if no one heard him no matter how much noise he was making while moving. This skill was the best for running away.
Charlus was happy and didn\'t notice that a goblin had sneaked up on him. He heard a shrill noise from behind. The goblin was calling its colleagues. Or is it team mates? Similar looking things?
Anyway, Charlus quickly killed it. However, the damage was done. Goblins were going to come and Charlus needed to battle them. At this opportunistic time, Charlus saw a pleasing notification.
