Chapter 11: Loading up

Name:Should Have Let Me Die Author:Magic_
'What the fuck did I just do?'

'Ya, Didn't see that coming!' -Gripton.

The Goblin-man/mini green giant was just as stunned as we were. He stared down at his now massive looking hands and then to his ripped body. I honestly thought his eyes would fall right out of his head, then it spoke.

"How can this be? I was just a stupid little green monster with barely a mind! Now I am a work of perfection!"

"Woah there, bro! How's it going? I'm Hyde," I stuck my right hand out to him while using as friendly as I could manage tone and painted on smile. This shit was really fucked up. I just turn that little green monster into…THIS!

'I hold the same feeling. I will be gone for a bit.' -Gripton.

'What to do mean gone? Right now? Of all times?'

*silence*

"It is a pleasure to make your acquaintance, Great Master Hyde!" The fucker almost broke my hand and shook my arm from its socket.

The handshake left my hand numb, and my arm feeling overly stretched. I scowled at the goblin, but he wasn't even paying attention to me. No, I followed that green fuckers line of sight to the flower he was staring at.

I was about to take off my left glove when two soft hands touched my arm. I stopped and turned to see Alexcoria beside me, shaking her head no. She had a mischievous look on her face. Alexcoria leans in, pressing her chest into me while using all four hands to cup my ear.

"He's harmless but strong and loyal like us, right?" Alexcoria whispered.

It almost echoed in the tunnel her hands made, but Alexcoria was right. I was starting to get really hot, so I tried to move away, but then Kyra was on my other side, using the same tactic. Pressed into pillow jail, my mind scrambled on what I should be thinking or feeling.

"Imagine if it works with the spiders and the rest of the goblins? Think of your army then?"

I dropped down and rolled backward out of the girl's reach. Kalita was there to give me a hand up, and I took it, getting up and looking for the green man. I found him looking at a tree and walked over with the girls following.

"What's your name, Buddy?"

The Goblin man turns to me and says, "Buddy? Is that my name? I had not a mind before, so names had no meaning for me."

"What do you wanna be called then?"

"Buddy."

"Meh, not bad. Alright, Buddy, how many goblins in your tribe?"

"Just me. A dragon ate the rest. I have run for three entire days and nights to stumble onto you, Great Master!"

See? Whatever, Grip is off a pervert or something. Of course, he would be the only one left! At least he knows where a dragon is—future goals.

"Well, let's get back to camp and get ready to leave. Buddy, you're with me."

I had Buddy walk beside me, and the other girls hug back. Maybe I would have to get a big tent and an extra cot for him to keep the damn girls out. When we got back to the camp, I was blown away.

All these homeless-looking mother fuckers in sack clothes were now replaced with healthy elves wearing bright clothes and singing while loading strange wagons that look to be grown from sapling trees, all woven together. Somehow the boxes they packed carried more fruits and vegetables than personal belongings.

The beautiful older, and now very well endowed Tescelle rushed over upon seeing us return from our little walk. As she ran over, Tescelle's heaving chest earned me a hand chop from one of my wives as she caught up to Buddy and me. I got another one when she stopped in front of me, but they didn't.

"Preparations are almost complete, Great Master Hyde! We all will be ready to leave in fifteen minutes!" Tescelle grabbed the hem on her dress and did a deep bow, but I already hand my hand above my head, but that earned me a slap.

I turned on the girls, and they all were turned away, looking at their nails. I thanked Tescelle and wave her off, telling her that we would be all ready to go. Tescelle handed me a map before leaving, and after taking it and putting it away, I turned to Buddy.

"You like looking at things, ey Buddy?"

"It's all new to me, so that would be logical to assume."

"Do you want to see the world?" That drew his attention, and he turned from the people to look at me.

"More than anything."

"Then will you fight for me? Because I want to take the entire world by storm!"

"Storm? You're my Master, so it really doesn't matter what path you follow. I will follow you. I will also protect you."

"Oh? And when do you plan on starting to do that?"

"What happened? Were you injured?" Buddy look genuinely worried, so I just shook my head and told him not to worry.

I turned around to abusive fiancées and glared at them. They all came and swarmed me, and I could hardly be mad, but I pushed away from them started to walk through the loading camp.

The Kalita and Kadence walked with me as we looked at all the wagons. Like giant mice or some shit pulled each one. Three feet tall by six long, they kind of looked like big ole pig mice.

I look at Kalita, and I was about to ask her about them when she saw someone and ran off up ahead. I turned to Kadence and asked her, but she had no idea. She also had cozied up to me, now that the rest were gone. Part of me wanted to pull away from the awkwardness, but when I looked down, she looked so damn cute, I just let it be.

I kind of zombied through the crowd, with Kadence on at my side, and soon we reached the front. Kalita was standing over by a Dark skinned elf I remembered was just a thin-looking middle-aged man turning into this bronze giant. A large pair of giant armored bugs pulled a wagon three times the size of any other.

It was equipped with a party patio on the back with railings, umbrellas, and tables with chairs. There also seemed to be a lower 2 level enclosed section below. The thing was like a house on wheels. Kalita waved us over and excitedly introduced me to her father, who gave me a deep and longbow.

"Stand up, man. You're making me feel embarrassed." I scratched my head, but then he stood up straight.

"Thank you for saving my daughter and all of our lives!" He to this knee's this time and smashed his head on the ground.

I just gripped my forehead in my hand while shaking my head. Kalita finally slapped her father and forced him to get back up and to stop thanking me. Soon, Markeye was back on his feet and rubbing the dirt and tears from his face.

"Well, Boss, Do you think we can get up here and check it out? How did you even make this thing."

"I could make things like arrows and bows before, and now I can make 20 a second, but now I can create this house and all the frames for the other carts in less than a day. Greckcain is responsible for the wheels and shocks, and canopy. I'm sure he might have been able to make it all, but this was faster."

"Crazy! I can't wait to see inside."

"Follow me, and I will give you a tour! I would be my greatest honor, Great Master!"

"Woah! That's way too fucking weird to have you calling me Great Master. Kalita told you I proposed to her, right?" Now that felt ever fucking weirder, and he just nodded, smiling at me.

"Call me, Hyde."
