—————

First, I accepted in becoming a dungeon keeper. Now, I'm surrounded by goblins. Could this be any worse?

"You! Fake dungeon keeper."

Oh, he can talk. Most goblins just grunt.

"What do you mean. Nozomi told me that I am the dungeon keeper."

"She would give it to anyone. She.. nice."

It seems that the goblins are particularly close with her.

Maybe the goblins will heel to me like they did with her, but how?

I doubt being nice will work on them. Given the situation it looks like there is only one option and I would like to avoid that.

"Is there any other way for us to-"

"No!"

........

It looks like there is no choice.

"Ack is true dungeon keeper. Ack and his army will tear you to pieces and take all of fake dungeon keeper's items."

It's not like I have anything to begin with.

"Attack!"

The goblins then charged at me, all at once.

"Tch, I don't even have a weapon."

I raised my palms and stared at the mob rushing towards me.

"Rragh!!!!"

The screams of the goblins echoed through the dungeon.

...............

"I-Impossible."

Ack says in shock as he stares down on his fallen goblin comrades.

It seems like I just knocked out 157 goblins. But about to be 158.

Goblins are not such dangerous foes. Sure they're fast but incredibly dumb. You just have to outsmart them, which should be easy since they have a brain the size of a chicken's. 

"You ready to give up?"

"N-no, Ack will avenge friends."

He raises his dagger and charges towards me

He first tried to slash my legs.

Backstep.

He was only as tall as my waist, making his attacks pretty predictable. Usually aiming for my lower half.
