Chapter 24
Hobgoblin Battle – Part 2

The annoying numbness in my hand was almost gone, and I examined the hobgoblin as I moved my fingers to check them.
The hobgoblin found me in hiding. So, I assumed he had the [Night Vision] or [Detection] skill… but he didn’t notice me when I was in the tree, so perhaps it was the former.
It could also be the smell of blood, but since hobgoblin was covered in blood as well, I would consider that possibility unlikely. …But then, if they had night vision, they would have found me even if I had level 1 stealth.

If he were human, the wound on his neck would be fatal, but the bleeding has already stopped. However, since the wound was quite deep, its physical strength was cut in half, and its overall combat power was reduced due to its left eye being crushed.
Even so, its fighting strength was more than twice that of mine. Normally, I wouldn’t be able to beat him in a head-to-head fight, but there would be no more opportunities for a strong opponent to be handcuffed and unaccustomed to one eye.
“…Phew.”
I breathe in slowly and exhale to dispel the slightest bit of fear.
