Background / History

The future Goblin King began as a starving, weak Goblin in a brutal tribe where food was reserved for the strong. Resentful of both its treatment by fellow Goblins and the equipment possessed by human adventurers, it began using traps to ambush humans and steal food, weapons, and knowledge. It deliberately distributed resources to weak and young Goblins not out of affection, but to secure lifelong loyalty. 30

Its growing notoriety led to a human hunting expedition that nearly killed it and shattered one of its arms. Unable to return to its tribe safely, it hid in an abandoned Orochi nest, where it discovered a mysterious stone containing a red gemstone. After swallowing the relic, it received ancient Goblin knowledge and awakened the Imperial Bloodline within itself. 30

Empowered by the relic, it returned to overthrow its chieftain, unified Goblin tribes through force, and expanded their technology and military training. It later found the inheritance of the Ancient Goblin Emperor and declared itself the true Goblin Emperor II. 30

Appearance

In its dominant combat body, the Goblin King was an unusually imposing Goblin nearly two meters tall—towering over Elite Goblins—and wore human-style armor while carrying a thick black staff. Its green face retained distinct Goblin features, including a long nose and pointed ears. 31

• Nearly two meters tall in its armored body 31
• Emerald-green face, long nose, and pointed ears 27 31
• Wore armor resembling Seka Mens’s equipment, though less polished 31
• Wielded the purple-quality Flame-Forged Longstaff 36
• Its true body was frail, bloodied, and missing an arm after the stronghold explosion 37

Personality

The Goblin King was intelligent, patient, and ruthlessly pragmatic. Its experience of hunger and social exclusion convinced it that ordinary Goblins were little more than beasts, while its apparent generosity toward weaker Goblins was a calculated method of building obedience. 30

It valued absolute control over independent thought. The King intentionally kept its army ignorant because it believed intelligent subordinates would be harder to command; this created an army willing to die on command but unable to adapt when its plans failed. 34

Despite recognizing that stronger forces existed beyond the forest, it remained deeply arrogant about its own strategy. Yang Yu’s deception and the Rescue Corps’ flexible coordination shattered its confidence, driving it from calculated leadership into rage, reckless transformation, and finally mutual destruction. 34 36

Abilities & Skills

• Developed Goblin technology, military organization, and specialized troops 30
• Modified the Goblin Assassin Corps with the gemstone’s power 30

Hybrid Melee Magic

Recorded while confronting the Rescue Corps 31.

• Infused its staff and fists with magical flames to add magical force to physical attacks 32
• Fought the higher-level Andeno evenly, then gradually gained the advantage after his buffs faded 33 34
• Corroded and severely injured Andeno during their duel 34

Surveillance and Trap Warfare

The King controlled the forest through long-term preparation rather than open battle alone.

• Spent six years installing magical surveillance eyes throughout Goblin Forest 30
• Used crystal-ball feeds to monitor adventurers and respond to their movements 27
• Prepared boulder traps, tunnel ambushes, observation zones, and guarded routes into the stronghold 20 27 29
• Lost much of its awareness after the Rescue Corps discovered and destroyed its surveillance network 23 27

Goblin Assassin Corps

The King commanded Elite Assassin Goblins: specially modified fighters selected from the tribe’s strongest warriors.

• Only the top fifty Goblin warriors could receive the King’s “baptism” and become Elite Assassin Goblins 28
• Assassins possessed extreme attack power and speed but exceptionally low health 28
• Used Deathly Dart, stealth, tree-based movement, and coordinated ambush formations 27 28
• Their unquestioning loyalty and pride caused them to abandon caution after Yang Yu survived their opening assassination attempt 28

Attribute Reallocation and False Body

When defeat became likely, the Goblin King attempted to abandon tactical combat and reshape its attributes into raw physical power.

• Began transferring Intelligence into Strength and Speed, causing its body to enlarge 36
• Required time to complete the transformation and was vulnerable to interruption 36
• Stopped the process under concentrated magical bombardment, suffering backlash and losing its weapon 36
• Detonated its constructed armored body as a last resort; the blast did not kill its frail true body 36 37

Equipment / Resources

• Flame-Forged Longstaff — purple-quality staff used to channel its flame-enhanced hybrid attacks; stolen by Yang Yu during the final battle 36
• Red gemstone relic — Ancient Goblin Empire relic swallowed by the King; awakened its Imperial Bloodline and supplied ancient knowledge 30
• Crystal-ball surveillance network — magical observation system planted across the forest over six years 27 30
• Artificial armored body — a constructed vessel that allowed it to wear high-quality human armor and serve as the source of its apparent self-destruction 37

Relationships

• Yang Yu — primary enemy; Yang Yu exposed the surveillance network, outmaneuvered the King’s army, stole its staff, and arranged the cave ambush that ended its escape 27 36 38.
• Andeno — opposing commander and direct combatant; the two fought a prolonged duel, during which Andeno identified the King’s dictatorship as a strategic weakness 33 34.
• Elite Assassin Goblin Captain and Assassin Corps — elite subordinates modified and deployed by the King; they revered its judgment absolutely 27 28.
• Goblin tribes and army — subjects unified through strength, resources, training, and enforced obedience 30 34.
• Bai Jin — helped prevent its recovery at the cave with [Healing Taboo], but illness prevented her from casting the finishing spell 38.
• He Meng — killed the King with an ultimate attack after Bai Jin became incapacitated 38.

Story Role / Major Arcs

Goblin Forest Conspiracy

The Goblin King orchestrated village attacks, sacrificial bait operations, traps, and Goblin raids to lure adventurers into Goblin Forest. It intended to capture and sacrifice humans while creating the impression that the Goblin threat was newly revived but still vulnerable. 30

When the Rescue Corps survived the boulder trap and destroyed its surveillance eyes, the King concluded that Yang Yu had likely uncovered its plan. It responded by deploying its Elite Assassin Goblins and redirecting its forces into a pincer attack. 27

Battle for the Goblin Stronghold

The King personally appeared at the Goblin village, revealing itself as a level-30 opponent with overwhelming physical and magical capabilities. It engaged Andeno directly while directing its army against the Rescue Corps. 31 33

Its battle plan unraveled when Yang Yu used feigned exhaustion to lure and eliminate the hidden assassins. The King then discovered that its larger army was being defeated by the Rescue Corps’ coordinated rotations, healing, magic, and adaptable command structure. 33 34

Defeat and Death

After Andeno was severely injured, the King tried to kill Yang Yu and restore control of the battle. Yang Yu instead evaded its repeated attacks, provoked it into abandoning strategy, and stalled until the Rescue Corps secured the wider battlefield. 35

The King attempted an attribute-reallocation transformation, but Yang Yu ordered an immediate magical bombardment, stole the Flame-Forged Longstaff, and struck it with [Shield Counter]. Its artificial body exploded in a failed attempt to take the Rescue Corps with it. 36

Though its true body survived and fled toward a cave it considered safe, Yang Yu had already stationed Bai Jin and He Meng there. Bai Jin blocked its recovery, and He Meng killed it, ending the Goblin King’s plan to rebuild the Goblin Empire. 37 38

Notable Quotes

“All of you, heed my command. Enter the highest state of combat readiness. I will personally lead the expedition.” 30

“I admit that you're strong. This time, let's perish together!” 36

Trivia

• Yang Yu’s system renders the meaningful name “Jane Raji Cide” as “Picking Up Trash to Eat,” a machine-translation result that Yang Yu finds difficult not to laugh at. 32
• Cide is the surname of the Ancient Goblin Emperor, while Raji was the name of the first human the Goblin King hunted. 32
• The Goblin King’s initial self-destruction was not a true suicide attack: its constructed armored body exploded while its original body escaped. 37
