Will has been locked up here for days.

Not a single goblin ever came looking for him.

Not even to talk to a single person with him.

The door to the stone house was locked all the time.

Ever since I locked myself up here. That door was never opened again.

There is only a little light every day.

When the time comes, the meal will be stuffed through the small hole under the door.

And then, and then there was no then.

Will wondered if the goblins guarding him outside would be able to hear him.

But there aren't any goblins to talk to him.

I don't even know when Izumi was there.

Will is inside.

He didn't know the time anymore.

The stone house is surrounded by airtight winds. Some have only a little bit of a gap.

He couldn't be allowed to observe the outside at all.

On the first day.

Will really thought he was going to die.

Look at the goblins below familiar or unfamiliar are so unfamiliar.

Their countenances became horrible. There they shouted and screamed that they would sacrifice themselves to the ancestral spirits.

In fact, there are many people in it who have received his favor.

If only he had helped.

Many of them will not survive to this day. Not even the first snow in the winter will pass.

Will was standing on top of it, he was genuinely scared.

For the first time, he felt that his people were so strange.

I don't know them at all.

I don't know what they want.

They are so easily angry and others provoke their own emotions.

Without the slightest judgment of one's own.

It's also that selfish.

Obviously, many of them have been helped by him. But none of the goblins stood up to speak for him at that time.

Even a sentence will do.

But no.

Not a single goblin. Some deliberately dodge their gaze below.

and he was afraid to see it and recognize it.

Actually, it's really not necessary.

Will doesn't feel like a goblin of all.

The first day he was locked in.

Listen to the angry voices of the heroes outside.

He was really scared that those people would rush in and kill him.

Really scared.

Maybe Kata deliberately instructed him or something.

Inside, he could hear the clash between the Elder Guards and the goblins.

Then there was no sound.

Only occasionally can you hear a few goblin invectives.

Right behind, I couldn't even hear the insults.

Will didn't know what Kata was going to do with him.

Or keep locking yourself up here.

No one told him.

No one told him what was going on outside.

I'm locked up here like this.

No one paid any attention to him.

Will struggled to calm himself down.

He had to think about what he would do if he were Elder Kata.

He's going to think with the idea of their older generation of goblins.

Why is this happening?

Some things aren't complicated in the first place.

Will just needs to think more about that from Kata's position.

He understood.

Elder Kata had actually been using him all along.

Use him to trade with humans to get those grains to save the tribe.

After all, what he wanted to see was a tribe that grew stronger and stronger.

And not a tribe that is about to disappear.

Will's appearance solves this problem.

So, what other reason does he have to object? For that inherent arrogance?

That kind of thing is nothing in the face of the survival of the tribe.

It's just that Kata was thinking about something else at the time.

He couldn't openly support Will.

Nor can I say anything

However, Will was really smart at that time.

He actually figured out Kata's idea.

Make a fake excuse, and you can't use fake excuses as your own reasons.

"These things are the rewards of the ancestral spirits. It was given to us by our great ancestors. ”

What Kata needs, however, is just such an excuse.

Use it as a fig leaf for yourself.

He doesn't need many goblins to believe.

However, as long as the ordinary goblins below believe it.

Will didn't think much about it at that time.

I thought that Elder Kata was worried about his own face.

That's why I didn't support myself openly.

However, there is secretly the endorsement of Elder Kata.

Will's deal with humans is also getting bigger and bigger.

The tribe is getting better and better.

Only, there is a little.

That is, the relationship between their tribe and other tribes is getting worse and worse.

There have even been goblins from other tribes openly robbing them of their food.

Will didn't care at first.

After all, their tribe does not have the ability to restrain other tribes.

He even simply thought it was a situation where other tribes were jealous of their own tribe's development.

Looking at things now, the truth is not what I think.

Elder Kata may have been trying to get the tribe back into that tribal council.

He really underestimated others.

Well, he won't necessarily kill himself.

Because he is a back road for him Kata.

At a time when the tribe could not continue to hold on.

Make yourself trading with humans. In exchange for all the materials that will allow the tribe to live.

If that's the case.

Will suddenly thought of the weapons he had built with Linus.

Those things will definitely be put to good use by Kata.

Will slammed the stone beneath him.

He said why the tribe needed so many weapons this time.

The man sent by Elder Kata actually told him that he was going to use it to guard against the goblins of other tribes.

Those things were clearly used against humans.

This "siege" has not yet begun.

Kata trapped himself here at this time. It must be that he wants the tribe to participate in this "siege".

Maybe they'll also take advantage of their connections in the Elwyn Line.

That's for sure.

Among his subordinates, there must have been someone who betrayed him.

Otherwise, Kata wouldn't have gotten the weapons he had built at Linus.

They're going to have that goblin retrieve the weapons on their behalf.

Who the hell is it?

Will couldn't help but feel angry.

He has always been kind to his men. But he didn't expect that there would be a goblin inside who would betray him.

No, he can't stay here. Find a way to get out.

Go inside the Elwyn Line.

Get there and be safe on your own.

Even Kata, its hand can't reach into it.

Otherwise, if those of their own people appear in the "siege" with their own weapons.

I can't tell how many mouths I have.

When that time comes, no one will believe in themselves anymore.

How do you get out?

Will looked at the small window that appeared next to him.

There's no way to climb out of the goblin at all.

Only the cat demon can get out of there.

But he is simply impossible.

For the first time, Will felt why he was so fat.

If only I was losing a little weight.

There may be a little bit of hope, but not even now.

Gotta think of a way. I have to stop this from happening.

Will walks around the dark stone house.
