Rise of the Blood Sovereign-Chapter 37: [ Bonus Chapter ] Inside the Goblin Cave

"Haaaaaa." Lyle exhaled as he went to get the bodies.

He had spent a bit more mana than expected in order to make his blood explode, it was still, however, less of an amount compared to before when his bloodline hadn't evolved.

Lyle could feel his mana as well had grown. He couldn't be completely certain, but he could almost swear that he didn't have this much mana before. But, there was still something missing, Lyle could sense that something deep inside him was still somehow shackled, he just didn't know what it was.

He gathered the bodies quickly before hiding them up the trees.

Lyle had no idea if more goblins or hobgoblins would be returning, and he didn't want them to sound an alarm after seeing all the corpses on the ground in front of their hideout.

Upon doing all of that, Lyle glanced around and looked at the monsters that were caged up.

The monsters were all silent right now. They could sense great danger coming from Lyle who was simply passing by their cages, completely uninterested when it came to them.

Lyle entered the cave.

The inside of the cave was actually quite narrow, but it led further inside.

Lyle made his way in, the screaming from the humans that were inside could still be heard.

It was only a couple of seconds later that Lyle constricted his eyes and jumped up before using his daggers to stab into the hard rock of the tunnel and stick to the walls above.

Two hobgoblins were passing by.

The two were talking about something, but Lyle of course didn't understand their language so he simply waited until they were right below him to drop down from the wall and kill the two.

His daggers were truly showing their power here. The daggers were created for being used against much stronger opponents and those like hobgoblins would have no way to even block the sharp daggers.

Lyle did the same with the two hobgoblins as he did before. He used a thin thread to hang them on the wall of the tunnel before continuing deeper inside. They were not perfectly hidden and perhaps enemies could notice them after entering the tunnel, but Lyle wasn't about to constantly go out to hide the bodies before returning inside the cave. 𝒃𝒆𝙙𝙣𝒐𝒗𝒆𝒍.𝙘𝙤𝙢

Suddenly the cave became wider, and not just a bit, but a lot wider.

The ceiling also became higher compared to before in the tunnel and Lyle could even see some primitive buildings that the monsters had built from rocks and sticks in the large underground hideout he had entered.

The area was about the size of a football pitch ( Author: I'm European, so when I say football, I don't mean the American one, no hate for that though, do like watching it. ).

The primitive buildings that the monsters had created had two purposes. Some were for sleeping, and the others were for holding the prisoners and breeding. That was it, there was nothing else that the buildings were used for or any other purpose they had.

The screams of girls and guys echoed inside the large cave while the laughter and moans of the goblins and hobgoblins were mixed in them.

Lyle quickly went to work.

There were about 10 goblins and 5 hobgoblins that were currently outside, while there were definitely even more that were currently partaking in different activities inside the buildings.

A couple of the shacks that the monsters had created were incredibly close to Lyle who went to them first.

He arrived at one before opening the door, or to be more exact, he pushed the door to the side as it was just a large plank that wasn't even connected to the building.

A hobgoblin and two goblins were inside the small shack while a girl was pinned down beneath the hobgoblin. The two small goblins held her hands which were bleeding thanks to their nails that were digging inside her flesh.

The hobgoblin was enjoying himself as he moved his hips and indulged in ravaging the girl who was barely even able to scream or produce any sound anymore.

Blood could be seen going down her legs, signifying that this was how she had her first time.

Lyle quickly threw two of his throwing knives at the goblins before grabbing the hobgoblin from behind.

He didn't kill him right away.

He didn't know why, but he didn't want to give the monster that swift of a death.

He pulled the hobgoblin back before using his dagger to cut off the thing between his legs. The hobgoblin tried to scream, only for his throat to be almost crushed by Lyle who had grabbed it with full force before stabbing through it with his other dagger.

Lyle then pushed the hobgoblin against a wall and stabbed through his heart, ending his life.

He looked at the girl who was simply staring at him.

"You're safe, but don't move, I need to take care of the other monsters, just stay here, alright?" Lyle asked the girl as the latter's lips trembled before she simply nodded her head meekly.

Lyle proceeded to spend the following 10 minutes slowly moving around the hideout and getting rid of the hobgoblins and goblins that were indulging themselves in carnal pleasure. There were about 2 shacks left, but he wouldn't be able to get to them since they were in the center of the cave where the other goblins and hobgoblins were located at.

'That's it for being stealthy I guess.' Lyle said as he prepared himself for battle. The shacks at the center of the cave were larger compared to the others and there were definitely more monsters inside.

There were even a couple of cages that he saw inside the hideout that had people inside of them. In total, he had come across about 10 people that were in shacks and 3 that were in cages.

He had no way of taking out the remaining monsters without alerting them.

Well, there were some things he could do to not alert them and get rid of a couple of them, but it was simply too time-consuming and his mana would drop down to dangerous levels after that, simply going head-on against the rest was the better tactic this time around.

Right before Lyle was about to move and attack the monsters, he stopped as he felt a mana fluctuation coming from one of the big shacks in the center.

He wasn't the only one as even the hobgoblins stared at the shack before it suddenly exploded.

Two hobgoblins and 3 goblins were blasted out from the shack as a man walked out from the debris that was falling around. A girl could be seen lying on a makeshift bed that was made out of wood and leaves.

Tears could be seen falling down her face as her clothes were ripped apart.

The man on the other hand had a big cut across his chest and a lot of blood was flowing out from it.

Lyle could guess that he had struggled fiercely inside the shack which led to the hobgoblins getting annoyed by him and cutting him down in an attempt to kill him.

'These two, they were amongst the five that I saw getting dragged inside previously.' Lyle thought as he stared at the 2 before the door of another shack was opened and more goblins and hobgoblins came out.

From the open door of the large shack, Lyle could see two girls that were lying on a bed while the body of a man was next to them.

All three were alive, but it was obvious what had taken place inside the other shack.

'And those would be the other 3 that were in the same group.'

'But this guy, he was able to use mana?' Lyle asked himself as he stared at the young man who was drawing mana to him.

The man saw the inside of the shack and his eyes turned bloodshot as he lifted his hand and pointed at the shack before a concentrated blast of mana went at the hobgoblins that had come out.

The hobgoblins were blasted away, but that was the only thing that happened. It would take much to kill them.

The goblins on the other hand were either seriously injured or dead after being blasted away like that.

The young man suddenly started panting heavily before falling down on his knees. He had already suffered a grave injury, and the exhaustion that using mana at his level was incredible.

The monsters all shouted before charging at him, only for the hobgoblins that were closest to the man to be penetrated by a spear that stabbed down on the ground beneath him.

The monsters all stopped moving.

The spear and the dead body of the hobgoblin made them nervous suddenly.

The young man that was barely keeping consciousness suddenly looked up as a person appeared in front of him.

"Hey, just do your best to not lose consciousness, I'll take care of these guys," Lyle said as he glanced back at the young man who was staring at him in confusion and shock.
