Chapter 17 A Pool Of His Own Blood It’s a strange thought. Even being a kobold I’ve seen so much more goblin blood than that of any other. Pooling on the stone floors of the castle, sinking into the soil of the forest, and each in a failed effort to defend their home and clans. I’ve had a lot of my own blood spilled though, too. So, does that count as seeing more kobold blood? No, I’ve still seen too much blood from the dead… The three goblins that formed Nik’s entire force of guards stood at the center of the pit facing him. Each of them was equipped and ready to show their new leader what they had to offer in combat. Kath had a sword in each hand, Worik held a two-handed sword, and Stics had the head of a sledgehammer resting over his shoulder. “You weren’t joking when you said that you use different weapons with separate styles, and none of you use a shield. I guess that puts you as a more attack focused group. So I’ll have each of you spar with me one at a time, and see what there might be for me to teach you or to learn from you. We’ll go in order from my left to right. Kath, then Worik, and Stics last.” They each stood aside waiting their turns and watching as Nik tested the others. Kath and Nik traded a few simple blows, just getting a feel for facing one another. He kept it to simple combat with no abilities, which was made easier by the fact that the three of them had none. She swung at him with one sword followed swiftly by the other, with each attack after that being a fluid motion of twinned attacks. Never did one sword move without the other as he blocked each of the strikes with his shield or spear. Sparring with Worik and Stics went similarly, with both of them knowing how to wield their weapons, but not being able to land a blow against their Burrow Lord. The truth had hit him like a black brick from the tower had fallen on his little teal-feathered head. If this clan is going to survive then I am going to need to train them. These warriors have a little training, but much less combat experience than they will need. “Okay, so… I won’t lie, you all seem to know how to wield your weapons well, but I also thought you would all be more experienced than this. I don’t have the same weapon skills that you use, but I will need to find a way to teach you to fight more effectively.” A bell rang out in his head, and his spear nearly slipped from his hands. At least I didn’t scream or drop anything this time, he thought as he looked to what the system had for him. Mentor System Unlocked Congratulations! Maybe you can get some points across. Student Slots Assigned 0 of 5 Students receive 35% increase to skill growth. You can teach your skills of level 3 or higher to your students. Student Slots cannot be unassigned once filled. Nik’s mind was racing from the new information. What in the tower? Does this mean I could pass on the wind, shield, and spear skills? Nik’s voice had an almost questioning upturned lilt as he called out, “Pearl? You’re gonna wanna know about this! I just got a new series of messages from the system and they might change everything for our little group of warriors.” Pearl fluttered over with haste. “What is the big thing that I need to know about?” “I just unlocked a Mentor system that allows me to teach some of my skills to students. Maybe in a way, like how you taught me, but I’ve never seen the system have an effect on others.” “This system always has another surprise waiting for us to discover. I am not one to use weapons, and I have not seen any lying around that are small enough for me to wield, regardless. I will not request one of your slots, but it is very interesting to see this new part of the system. We should make use of every advantage that it offers to you.” “Well, lowerguards, what do you say to becoming students of the spear and wind skills?” Kath spoke up first, as seemed to be usual. “Maybe the Stormclaws will be known for usin’ elemental skills someday. It would be fittin’ of our n
