The entire place was covered in smoke and Rio who was now in his domain started to absorb the attack rapidly until his body was all covered in a much dark flame as he neutralized it.
[Absorption reached Level 03]
With everyone thinking he was dead and the Goblin chief had died, the smoke started to clear as laughter was heard leaving the Goblin chief shock as Rio stood at the same spot untouched and Rio asked "Is that all you got, Goblin Chief?!" walking to his direction.
Not knowing what to do again, the Goblin Chief was about to run but a strong force pulled him to Rio and his neck was grab as he said "Any last words". Before the Goblin chief could say anything, he appeared at the gate of hell as Rio had stab him in the chest and Rio absorb his spirit light.
[You have reached, Level – 09]
[You gained 140pts]
[Absorption reached Level 03]
[You have acquired the map to Hobgoblin-King Village]
[You have acquired Rank 2 mana crystal]
Rio who was delighted to have gotten something good quickly place them away and turn to people in the cage with a cold look on his face, which he approaches them and opened the cage asking "Where are rest of humans in this domain?". Chris who noticed Rio quickly replied in fear "We don't know where the rest are but we meet some few who betrayed us and used us as prey to escape the goblins, which we were captured and were about to become food for them" and bowed asking for him to help them escape the monsters.
At first glance, Rio refused saying "Why should I help you when you are useless and would just end up backstabbing me like back in school?" and Chris bitterly watch him but knew the goblins were not finished.
Seeing that Rio would never help them to leave the place, he pleaded for mercy as they would die and Rio seeing the rest doing same. He said coldly "I might help you if only you have some useful items and good surviving skills since everyone has their own system that I don't have" and watch them as they quickly replied "We have spent our points on getting good skills and levels, but we only have gold left since we can only use it in the mortal realm".
Rio who counted them said "You are seven in number and I can only take those that meet the requirement as the rest would only fend for yourselves, as I also need five people on my journey and so I will give you time to set the requirement" as he open the cage and climb a three to rest.
They were all at a lost as everyone started to watch each other thinking of how to settle the matter as Rio watch knowing there would be blood flow, which a guy who seems to look like he was in his twenties said "The two ladies should be the one to leave and not anyone else as they lack the fighting skills and only warriors can survive" pointing at the two black hair ladies. At first, they wanted to denial but Chris also agreed with another lady and a bald head guy, which the rest two guys also agreed since majority carries the vote and the two ladies quietly went out heading away.
Rio immediately stopped them and asked them of their skills which they replied "Healing and fire magic" as he quickly asked them to give him half of their gold coins as he jumps down. They immediately did as Rio said "Now you are under my protection for a month and the rest of you must show yourself worth by fighting the incoming Goblins" and told the two to stand beside him.
The rest were angered by what Rio did started complaining but Rio who had been waiting to see how far they would go; he climbs up the tree along with the two ladies and watch the goblins approach in anger. Chris with the rest got out of the cage charging to fight as he said "If he could kill them easily without the system, then they are just not all strong and we could even kill them if we work together" and Rio asked "Which level are you guys and I can give you a clue on how to kill them".
Looking at the smile on his face and how sinister he looks, they said "We are at the Mid stage of Commoner (Mid-commoner)" and Rio who was now more interested replied "Nice, the weak point is at their head and waist".
They all smirk showing how stupid Rio was to give them an information and even the two ladies wondered why he decided to help them all of a sudden but Rio who seems to smile wider watch closely. Sword clash was heard as the goblins attack the group of five and without any chance to escape, the two group exchange attacks as Rio watch their every move and letting them go all out but the goblins still had the upper hand.
Rio stretch his hand at the dead goblins far away and absorb as he continued to watch, which in a long battle, two people went down before the it ended and the rest were injured as Rio got down with the two ladies. Walking to the three survivors and looking at them coldly as they watch him in anger, Rio asked "Now, you must give me half of your gold if you want to leave this domain or you either die here. How do you see it?" as the three hesitated and disagree saying "We will work on our own and you should hand over the Healer as she is useful to our team or we take her by force".
With a sinister smile on his face and hand spinning the rusted swords, Rio said "Why should I hand over someone I am in contract with for a month? And before I can let her go, she must decide herself but the gold coins in not refund" as he turns to the two ladies waiting for their reply.
They both said "We are not working with you after sending us off and would be fine by his side" point to Rio as their leader and the bald man angrily said "Since you chose the hard way, we grant it to you as it's a three-on-three dual" with Chris also nodding.
Rio laughed saying "Finally, I can get my hands on you three and teach you a good lesson. I will fight you three alone and the ladies would be watching as they are what you want" as he told the ladies to step back.

Rio wondered if they really wanted had a trump card as look all too bold makes him feel suspicious of them and just as he was thinking, Chris said "Rio, consider yourself dead as I will show you the true power the system bestowed on us" as a red aura surrounded him and the two also released their aura in yellow and green.
Just as they showed off their power, the two ladies said "They have reached level 15 all of a sudden and have unlock their class passive skill!" as Rio watch in seriousness and ready himself for a battle.
The all attack together almost cutting Rio's neck but he dodged and jump back but they didn't even give him the chance to rest as they clashed their blades at Rio who barely blocked, which he was thrown away as he didn't bother about it as he continued to block their attacks and receiving minor injuries.
The bald guy: Hahaha! So, you can only block and not even put up a good fight to even save yourself.
Chris: You really disgust me for trying to pick what doesn't belong to you and if not, we were injured by John family, we could have finished these goblins up before you even showed up.
Third guy: How about you hand over your gold coins and we will make your death less painful
Chris: Yeah. Hand over all your gold coins and mana crystal as we would end this quickly.
Rio: Such a pity.
The bald guy: Who do you pity? You are rather the one we pity and you should give up.
Rio: Give up? Do you think this little attack can kill me? Or just because I wanted to test you out that you think I'm weak? You sure didn't notice that I block all your and lower my guard just to make you feel superior. Now, its my turn to show you what a Commoner level can do.
Chris: You still arrogant just because you are at Commoner level.
The bald guy: Guys, let kill this low-level guy as he is wasting our time!
They dashed to attack Rio with all their strength but before they could realize, they were been froze by fear as Rio used his Domain Ruler and trap them in it. Two big eyes were watching them as they wondered what it was but before they could realize, Rio stab them in the chest and killing them as they appeared at the Gate of Hell not knowing how they died.
Even the two ladies didn't know how it happened as Rio stood behind the three guys who fell to the ground with blood running and he stretch his had absorbing them with the other two that died in the goblin battle, as their body turn to ashes and Rio fell to one knee holding his chest like he was been stab but it was just the immediate use of trait, abilities and skills for a one chance.
Rio looked at the two and said with a smile "They are gone now and can I get to be healed, please" as the two ladies rush to him, which the healer helped him regain his health even though he could recover over time and Rio thanked them.
Just as he up to his feet and was thinking about what to do next, the ladies quickly said "Hmm please, we haven't introduced ourselves yet" and Rio agreed as he asked them to go first.
The Healer: I'm Nat Kashi but you can call me Kashi and I'm 24years, but currently my family got killed by the goblins and nice to meet you.
Rio: Kashi? That will do with me and what about you?
Fire Mage: I'm Nat Nami and also 24years, as Natash is my nephew and it is nice to meet you.
Rio: Nami and Kashi? That seems to be Japanese name and nice to meet you two.
Nami: Yes, we are.
Kashi: Sure.
Rio: You can me Rio and I'm a Japanese
Kashi: Mr. Rio with no surname?
Nami: You are a Japanese and what about your age?
Rio: Just Rio and my surname is kind of personal for now with my age as I don't really
Kashi: Sorry about that, Rio.
Nami: My apologies, Rio.
Rio: Never mind, we would be resting here for the night and continue tomorrow.
Kashi and Nami nodded as they went into the room that Rio entered, which he sat on the rock throne as the ladies slept on the long wide rock. He pondered over how the two behave like twin when they are just nephews and with their looks, one could tell they are related as some might even mistake them for another.
