Ainz - MORE GOBLINS

“You won’t get away!”

—a familiar voice sounded from right next to Barbro, and he felt for the first time that his life was in danger.

As his escorts drew their swords and scanned the area, figures dressed all in black slipped out of the shadows. Their faces were masked, but their sharp eyes glittered.

“We are the Goblin Assassin Squad under General Enri! This will surely be the last time we who lurk in shadows come into the light.”

And there was one more.

He appeared, as if he couldn’t help himself, in a red hat, iron shoes, and a scythe, like a god of death.

“I am one of the Goblin Guards—the Thirteen Redcaps serving under General Enri. Well, I guess there’s not really a reason for me to be here, but…”

“Guard His Highness! Sound the gong for withdrawal!”

“Not so fast!”

A shadow moved. At least, that was all Barbro could make out.

One of the knights vanished from the neck up, and his blood spurted out like a fountain.

When his brain comprehended what he was looking at, Barbro spurred his horse into a gallop. He was no longer at leisure to fret about who would flee first. He was standing on the razor’s edge between life and death.
