A scream filled with pain rang in my ears.
I saw a young man with blood on his face, propped up by his hands behind him, grimacing as he lay on the ground.
His left knee looked to be broken from a heavy blow.
In front of him was an excited goblin covered in sores.
"Jamie!"
The boy was filled with adrenaline.
Although lacking the combat ability of an adult due to his inexperience, when the blood rushed to his head, his courage never faltered.
On the battlefield, he appeared even braver than many seasoned soldiers, though the casualty rate always reached a staggering level.
Jamie, a country boy, was facing goblins for the first time.
Fear gripped his heart, as the terrifying tales of these demons, recounted by his parents and elders, had long warned him.
At this moment, however, he found himself left alone on the field instead of fleeing to the cellar with the others.
A surging emotion rose within him.
He had to protect his family!
