Once upon a time, when there was far less starlight than now, the gods of light, order, and fate, and the gods of darkness, chaos, and chance, rolled the dice to determine the power that ruled the world. Again and again, the gods rolled the dice into the dark. However, there are always winners and losers, no matter how long the competition takes, there is no difference between victory and defeat. Soon, the gods got tired of rolling the dice.

So they created all sorts of living creatures and the worlds they inhabited as pawns and chessboards. Mortals, forest people, miners, nursery people, lizardmen, goblins, trolls, demons. They go on adventures, sometimes winning, sometimes losing, sometimes finding treasures, sometimes finding happiness, and dying one by one. The gods watched these processes and followed them with joy, sorrow, laughter, and weeping. Once upon a time, the gods began to look forward to the activity of the chess pieces and loved the world from the bottom of their hearts.

And Goblin Slayer...... Talent, quality, background, equipment, everything has nothing special to speak of. Whatever god liked him very much, but did not expect much from him. Because he can't save the world, he can't change anything, and after all, he's just a pawn that can be seen everywhere.

“…… I'm in the cave. Nobita looked around and found himself teleported into a dark cave, the roof of which was not very tall but was covered with spiky rocks. It's also a little distance from the entrance of the cave, and there is hardly any light to pass through, and the occasional murky droplet of water dripping on the rock wall makes a loud noise.

But for some reason, Nobita can see his surroundings clearly.

"What's going on?"

"The host...... After fusing with Godzilla, your body organs have been modified by G cells, and now you just look like a human. Yu Feiyan said on the side, "According to the results of my scan of your body, you already have the ability to see at night, and the light sensing system is also far beyond the maximum value of the human race. Theoretically, your myopia has already healed. ”

"Really?" Nobita took off his disc glasses with some joy, and found that everything in front of him had really become a lot clearer, "It seems that I don't need to wear glasses anymore in the future...... That's a great thing! Swallow, you know what? I don't wear glasses and I wear glasses, it's just two people......"

"Master." Yu Feiyan interrupted him in a calm tone, "At nine o'clock, two suspected human beings are approaching, their movement speed is very slow, one of them has extremely weak vital signs, and part of the heart and lung function is failing; Another person is secreting more than average adrenal hormones and the brain is in a state of extreme tension. Out of humanitarianism, we should go to the rescue. ”

"Hmm...... Actually, I heard it too. Nobita smiled helplessly, turned around, and began to take steps towards the other side of the cave, "After all, this place is so wide, and the sound doesn't spread out when it travels, and I don't know why my ears are not good now." ”

In this long and narrow cave, Nobita smelled an inexplicably disgusting smell...... It's not some tangible "taste", it's something relatively abstract. Even if he didn't see a drop of blood, Nobita at this time dared to guarantee that in this dirty, dark cave, there were many people who died in despair, and these huge negative emotions accumulated and were finally "felt" by the upgraded Nobita with a certain organ.

Just three minutes after landing, Nobita felt that the world was filled with a strange sense of morality...... He had a hunch that it wouldn't be long before something very disgusting would pop out and wash his three views......

No why, it's just a feeling.

……

"Hah...... Yes...... Ha...... Please, please hold on a little longer, we'll be there soon......"

A crisp and beautiful female voice came from the other end of the cavern, mixed with a gasp of exhaustion, as if she was about to fall to the ground from exhaustion. After hearing the girl's wheezing, Nobita's nerves began to get excited inexplicably - since he was in junior high school, this guy has been in a state of autism, and basically hasn't spoken much to girls. (Actually, there are no boys)

In his expectant eyes, two young girls finally appeared in the field of vision.

The girl on the left looks very young, probably no more than fifteen, with long blond hair. Her outfit was somewhat similar to that of Metophis on the Aratlam, making Nobita instantly recognizable as a clergyman...... On his shoulders was a blue and white robe, lined with a gold-trimmed robe, a white skullcap, and white boots on the lower half of his body, which reached his knees. In her left hand, the girl held a heavy tin cane with a series of brass rings hanging from it, which "jingled" as she walked.

And the other girl...... It's not so good.

She had short purple hair, her body was languishing, her eyes were misty, she was almost unable to move, and she was completely dragged by the little priest. Nobita could clearly see a shocking pool of blood on her abdomen, which seemed to be the result of a sharp object inserted, but for some reason, there was no blood dripping from her body.

……

"Wow!" The little priest suddenly saw that there was a person standing not far in front of him, and he was immediately frightened out of his body, and he sat on the ground with a "plop". She didn't have Nobita's ability to see things clearly in the dark, and the sudden appearance of a person under this kind of visibility was enough to scare her into temporarily losing her ability to speak......

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry!"

She kept saying this sentence in her mouth, as if she was apologizing to the girl she had been supporting. However, the other girl's situation was even worse than expected - she was thrown to the hard stone floor, but she didn't even react, just instinctively coughed up a few drops of blood, and her pupils dilated, like a broken puppet.

......The girl's sky-blue eyes were filled with tears, and her fair face was stained with black mud and scarlet blood. Although the blood stains had dried up, Nobita could still guess what was going on from her reaction.

"Is there something chasing you from behind?" Nobita asked in round-hearted Japanese.

“…… Huh? The girl who had been burying her head snorted softly, and raised her head with tears in her eyes, only to find that there was a real human standing in front of her! Like a victim in the desert who had finally found water, she took a deep breath and shouted, "Please help me!" Over here...... Someone here has been stabbed by a goblin! I've already used 'Little Healing' on her, but it doesn't work at all......"

"Goblins?" Nobita doesn't have much exposure to fantasy-style games, and when he first heard the term, he couldn't help but wonder, "What's that?" ”

"Don't you know about goblins?"

Only then did the little priest dare to raise his head and observe the appearance of the person who came-his hair and eyes were dark black, his height was 1.73 meters, he was not tall, he was lean, he was wearing clothes of cloth as thin as himself, and the materials were relatively high-quality. Nobita doesn't look like a warrior by her standards, but he doesn't wear a magician's ring or silver belt...... So, is it just an ordinary person who comes to explore the caves?

The hope that had just been ignited was extinguished again, but the little priest didn't distinguish anything, just grabbed Nobita's trouser leg and said vigorously, "In that case, please run away quickly...... If you can, please take my companion out as well, maybe she'll be saved......"

"Whoosh——!!"

Halfway through his words, Nobita suddenly heard a strange sound in the distance—it was the sound of the bowstring being pulled apart. The training with Bruce came to mind at once, and he stretched out his left hand to press the pink back of the little priest's neck, and pressed down so hard that her whole body threw herself into his arms, just dodging the sharp arrow that flew over. At the same time, Nobita's right hand pincer out like lightning, holding the flying arrow firmly in his hand in the darkness.

“…… Huh? How did you ......?"

"Once you get used to it, it's easy." Nobita tried to make his smile look as kind as possible, so that he could better reassure the frightened little girl, "no matter what happened before...... Don't worry, I'm here. ”

"So everything will be fine."

He said this in a tone of affirmation, pulling a prop from his pocket.

[Artificial Little Sun: It is essentially a miniature nuclear fusion reactor, and together with miniature rain clouds, it is made into a weather control system in the agricultural encyclopedia.] The user can remotely control an artificial sun about the size of a soldier ball, and its light is enough to illuminate all the spaces within the field of view of a normally enclosed environment, making it suitable for detecting unknown dark environments. 】

"It's so dark in here...... You're scared of that, right? Nobita said in a childlike tone, "It's fine if it's a little brighter." ”

With that, he threw the small artificial sun in his hand upward, and with a soft "boom", a thousand rays of light burst out in an instant, shaking this narrow cave as if it were day. At this moment, Nobita regretfully found that he really no longer belonged to human beings - suddenly his eyes were stimulated by the bright light, and he didn't even feel any discomfort, not even a little pupil contraction.

"Ahh The little priest screamed in surprise and instinctively covered his eyes with his hands. After a while, her eyes began to gradually adjust to this light, so she took her hand down little by little, and was surprised to see that the cave that was still dark in the dark of Blon suddenly became as bright as day, and the power of this light source was so strong and endless, even the magic of the teachers of the Earth Mother Temple, the "Great Holy Light", seemed to be incomparable......

"Who the hell are you?" She asked in an incredulous tone.

“…… As you can see, I'm a nomadic black mage, so I can use some forbidden spells and power-ups...... That's pretty much what you see. Nobita made up a name for himself and looked into the depths of the cave. Thanks to the artificial sun, everything here is illuminated clearly, and those monsters hidden in the darkness naturally have nothing to hide. Two small green monsters emerged from a corner of the cave, their faces extremely hideous and sinister, with human-like limbs and heads, one of which had a bow and arrow in his hand.

When these ugly monsters saw the little priest and the girl lying on the ground, the corners of their mouths opened in an abominable arc, just enough to see the sallow fangs in them. Saliva dripped from their mouths, like a long-hungry glutton finally seeing the delicious food in front of them.

"Gaga...... Ah......h

But their footsteps soon stopped.

Behind the little priest who was trembling slightly...... Nobita's eyes had changed from dark black to turquoise, a symbol of the color he had received from Godzilla. What kind of chasm there is between the king of monsters and these filthy creatures, even if I don't write about it, you must be able to intuitively feel it...... And at this moment, Nobita is trying to spread deterrence to these inferior animals, so that they can recognize their status.

It worked, and the goblins ran away with their heads in their hands.

“…… It's also a creature that starts with G.,It's so spineless.。 Nobita said disdainfully, then turned into a gentle smile again, and began to comfort the girl, "These animals have lived in caves for a long time, and their eyes are not adapted to the light, so they must have been scared away by the light. ”

"That's it......" The little priest breathed a sigh of relief inexplicably, but it didn't take long for her to remember something more important, and she got up from the ground with some reluctance, and said to Nobita with great anxiety, "Since you are a magician, then...... You should know what can be done to save her, right? My companion was stabbed by a goblin and has not been able to ...... until now"

"Shh~~......" Nobita's expression suddenly changed, and he gently touched the little priest's lips with a finger, and said in a low voice, "Someone is coming." ”

On the other side of the cave, a series of heavy footsteps were heard.
