Gi Ga felt impatient as he watched the chief fight a difficult battle right before his eyes.

But at the same time, he had to do the job he was ordered to do.

Gi Ga turned to glance at the human woman. And there she was, her face as expressionless as usual, watching the chief fight.

Gi Ga was ordered to protect this woman.

But at the rate the fight is going, if he doesn't jump out now, then the chief will be devoured by the orcs.

The chief prefers to be alone.

Whenever there is danger, the one who goes is he. The chief never lets his subordinates do something reckless.

To Gi Ga, this kind of conduct was abnormal.

When Gi Ga was only a goblin, the leader of his horde then had red skin like he does now.

Each day that leader would order the goblins to hunt for food. And the older goblins would take for themselves the best of the spoils.

——Power is everything.

That was true even for the goblins.

Gi Ga never thought it to be strange.

When he reaches the top, he too would do the same. But of course, there was dissatisfaction. And what was most unsatisfying was the matter regarding the females. The boss of the horde monopolized the females, keeping coitus with the females all to himself. The whole horde was unsatisfied.

But even so, for Gi Ga who was only a goblin, rebelling was not possible.

But then one day, a goblin who would leave that horde appeared. Gi Ga followed that goblin. Gi Ga followed him since it seems like he'll allocate the females, and since the food was better compared to what it was then.

There were many young goblins following that goblin.

Young goblins that had circumstances similar to Gi Ga.

Eventually they found a place they could settle down in. But then, the orcs also came.

The new leader said he would drive those orcs away. And so he gathered the thirty goblins that were with him, and he told them to surround the three orcs. But it failed.

By the time Gi Ga noticed it, the encirclement was broken, and Gi Ga was sent flying, knocked unconscious.

By the time he woke up, the leader was an unknown red goblin.

Little by little, the horde acknowledge that goblin as their leader.

——Well, history will just repeat itself.

This forest is just too harsh of an environment for goblins to live in.

Like that Gi Ga followed after the new chief with his heart partly resigned.

That leader taught Gi Ga and the other goblins a new method to catch preys. A method that used traps to disable the preys.

Gi Ga doubted his eyes as he stared at the leader who thought this up, completely dumbfounded.
