Life Before Becoming an Omniverse Entity-Chapter 99: Die

But then, Renan spoke again. "I think they might be dead if we take any longer."

Elaris, realizing the urgency of the situation, quickly pulled away from his embrace and stood firmly on her feet. "Yes, let's go, dear," she said determinedly.

And with that, both of them disappeared from their spot, vanishing simultaneously as they used space elements.

And soon they materialized not far from the place where the sound was coming.

"Hmm," Renan materialized at besides a tree and looked at the place where the fight was taking place.

*CLANK*

Two swords clashed against each other ringing a loud sound that vibrated through the forest,

One was a man and the other was a goblin which slightly smaller than the man but not much and more goblins standing at the sideline looking at the fight while slightly sneering.

"Keke iethead," one goblin raised his hand and pointing his finger at the man spoke something which no one understood but from the way of his body and face it definitely looked like he was mocking the man.

The other goblins who also stood with that one nodded their heads in agreement, "keke."

The man and the goblin continued to fight but from their clashes of swords, it was clear that the man was losing.

"Huu.. haa," the man took breath greedily like it was his last breath, his eyes slowly looking over his shoulder behind him. There he saw a woman with an average face crouched down with a boy in her arms, hugging him tightly, trying to protect him from the world or most likely from the goblins, and beside them was a small carriage enough to carry three to four people but now destroyed, the horse also killed.

His eyes went back to the woman and child once more taking in their features, both of them crying. The woman cried silently, her eyes closed, while the child cried loudly, a few words spilling out of his mouth between sobs, "wahh dad, daddy," the child continued to cry like that.

'Forgive your father, Cian, your father was not able to protect you and your mother,' the man thought and looked back at the goblin in front of him. His blood boiled as he saw the small smirk on the goblin's face, and suddenly.

He roared, his blood boiled as he swung the sword at the goblin's head with newfound strength, "AHHHHHHH," the goblin who underestimated the man was surprised at first by the man's last effort, but still, he was able to bring his sword in front of him in time. But the moment their swords clashed, the goblin was once again surprised by the man's strength. Before he could hold the sword properly to protect himself, it was too late as the man brought the sword back and swung it down,

"AHHHHHH," his sword cutting through the air till it also cut through the goblin's head in one fell swoop.

*SLASH*

*THUD*

The goblin's head fell to the ground, but not a single goblin moved from their place. Instead, "wooo," they were surprised by the man's win, and suddenly, "clap, clap," they clapped like it was some kind of show and the one killed was not their brethren who they spent their days with, but an unknown who just died. Their actions proving that it was entertainment to them rather than a battle.

"Ke ieme tqun," one goblin spoke and stepped ahead, his eyes briefly staying on the woman and the child before a smirk appeared on his ugly face, making it even uglier than it already was.

The man who stood there breathless couldn't help but smile in bitterness as he understood what they were doing and why they were not attacking him together outright. "Huh," a bitter smile appeared on his face, 'they are fighting me one by one to decide who would take my wife and the winner would take her,' he thought, but there was no anger as he knew, "it's useless," he spoke and turned around to look at his wife and child, 'what a useless father am I,' he thought.

The wife who was crying silently while hugging the child suddenly heard something dropping in front of her.

*CLANK*

And she slowly opened her eyes in fright, thinking that a goblin was here, but when she opened her eyes, she saw no goblin around her, only a knife lying on the ground in front of her. She slowly looked up from the knife to her husband and saw him standing there looking at her with a defeated smile. The wife who saw this immediately understood her husband's intentions, and slowly she stretched her hand outward toward the knife, trembling, barely picking it up with her quivering fingers. She once more looked at her husband and saw him saying something.

"I'm sorry, Saina," he spoke those words, and the wife couldn't help but cry even more as she understood that if she didn't do this, then the fate awaiting her would be even worse than death, and her child's fate would also not be much different. So she needed to do this while her husband stalled the goblins from stopping her.

And just as expected, the moment the goblins saw the knife in her hand, they straightened up and started running in her direction frantically.

"Ke,"

"Keeeeeee," the goblin screamed and ran in her direction with full speed.

But before the goblin could reach her, the man suddenly came between them, bringing his sword down with renewed strength.

"Ahhhh," he swung his sword frantically, keeping the goblins away.

"HURRY UP, SAINA," the man screamed while fighting.

The wife hesitated slightly before she suddenly made up her mind and brought her child out of her hug. In between her silent cries, she said, "forgive mommy, Cian," the wife said as she brought the knife close to the child's neck.

The child, who was just three or four years old, didn't understand what was happening but continued to cry even louder. But before the knife could reach the child's throat, a voice was heard which reverberated throughout the forest.

"I Think I have seen enough," a voice was heard by everyone, making them stop in their tracks—the goblins, the mother who was driven by the fear of goblins and was about to kill her own child for his safety, all of them stopped in their tracks.

And soon a rustling of bushes was heard before a man walked out of it.

And all of their gazes were attracted to him, their eyes glued to his face, even the goblins were staring at him.

It was none other than Renan, who had been watching for a while before deciding it was enough.

His eyes momentarily landed on the child, who stared at him with wide eyes, no longer crying.

Renan slightly smiled back at the child before turning his eyes back to the goblins. His face, which before had a slight smile, turned extremely cold and distant, and one word came out of his mouth that made the spine of the goblins shake with fear.

"DIE,"
