182 Destra No More 2

"...I'll better start heading back"

having made his decision Terry began making his way out of the forest by following his footsteps, he didn't want to risk getting lost by taking another route out of the forest, even though he knew he was unlikely to find anymore wild herbs or plants by taking the same route back he didn't know the forest well enough yet that he wanted to test his luck, plus his harvest for today was rather good. On the way back Terry pa.s.sed tough a clearing and suddenly herd a cry from his back and turned around, there stood a short green skinned figure with a primitive spear in its hands

"s.h.i.+t a goblin!"

Terry quickly took his bow off his back and readied an arrow, meanwhile the goblin closed in on him with its spear pointed toward him, when it was about 15 meters away Terry let loose his first arrow which missed by a wide margin

"s.h.i.+t!"

Terry quickly pulled out another arrow and drew the string again before he let loose arrow number two which struck the goblin in the stomach causing it to let out an enraged roar as it continued closing the distance

"f.u.c.k!"

Terry drew out his last arrow and put it on the arrow rest as he drew back the string of the bow, just before he let loose the arrow he felt his head clear, then he let loose the arrow which flew through the air for less than a second before it struck the goblin right in its left eye as it fell over backwards and twitched a few times before it laid silent, Terry felt the strength in his legs leave him as he sat down on the spot as cold sweat dripped down his forehead and he tried to catch his breath for a few moments before he suddenly stood up again

'I need to leave fast, goblins are pack magic beasts!'

Terry quickly fetched his arrows including the one he had missed with first before he pulled out the two that still sat in the goblin before he pulled out a dagger which he had received from Brian and cut off the long goblin ears before he stabbed the goblin in the chest and cut it open and retrieved a small magic beast core

"I'm rich!"

then he dried off most of the blood on his hands on the gra.s.s before he got on his feet and quickly left behind the clearing behind...

Back at the guild Terry pushed his way through the crowds again and walked up to one of the empty reception desks where a bored looking guild employee sat on a chair and messed with her nails, Terry walked all the way up to the desk and spoke up

"excuse me"

the guild employee looked up and gave a slight frown when she saw Terry's face, Terry however ignored it and put his pouch up on the desk as he spoke

"I would like to sell some stuff"

"sure let me have a look..."

the guild employee pulled out the things from Terry's pouch and counted them

"herbs and plants for a total of 160 cel, a whole rabbit 350 cel and finely a goblin set of ears and magic beast core 400 cel, for a grand total of 910 cel"

the guild employee then took out 9 silver coins and a single copper coin and handed it over to Terry

"here you are"

"t-thanks"

Terry took the cel with slightly trembling hands before he stuffed them down in his coin pouch and made his way out of the guild and made his way back to the inn where he was staying and extended his stay by another week by paying 500 cel before he walked up the stairs to his room and collapsed into his bed and soon fell asleep...

the following week Terry went to the forest every day and grew his fortune to about 3000 cel, which was considered excellent for a newly started hunter, he used that cel to buy an additional 3 iron headed arrows from Brian for 200 cel as well as a short sword for 500 cel as a bonus form Brian he also received a whetstone and a cleaning cloth in his purchase for free which he was grateful for, he also purchased a set of light leather armor which cost him 800 cel so he no longer needed to go into the forest with his usual clothes which speared him some embarra.s.sment, plus the light leather armor was more likely to stop a primitive spear than his usual clothes. The time right now was early morning and Terry was in the process of inspecting his equipment for damage, he went over each arrow with matriculate care and attention before he carefully but them into his quiver, when he was done he gave a nod

"good"

next was his bow, he studied the string for damages and the grip for nicks, after finding it in tip top from he went over his light leather armor and his new, yet to be used short sword, there was not much to be seen on the blade of his short sword since he had yet to use it. Finished inspecting his equipment he wore his light leather armor and fastened the sheath of his short sword to his hip were he could easily draw it then he fastened his quiver to the other side of his hip and swung his bow over his shoulder and gave a nod

"well then let's do my best again today"
