Villain Is on Vacation



[E-Class Dungeon, Goblin's Nest] 

The Goblin's nest was a dark and damp labyrinthine of tunnels and chambers, dug deep into the earth.

The walls were rough and uneven, coated in a layer of slime and grime.

The air was thick with the stench of rotting food and goblin filth.

Currently, a group of adventures was exploring this dungeon. 

They crept through the narrow tunnel, weapons at the ready.

They could hear the goblins ahead, chattering and laughing amongst themselves.

Sir Cedric, the leader of group gestured for the others to spread out, and they fanned out, ready to attack.

As they rounded a corner, they were met with a group of goblins, armed with crude spears and knives.

The goblins snarled and leapt forward, and the adventurers charged to meet them.

Sir Cedric stepped forward, his shield raised, and engaged the goblins head-on.

Lila darted around the edges of the battle, using her short sword to strike from behind.

Thorgrim stood back, his holy symbol glowing, and chanted a prayer to turn the goblins away.

Elenor unleashed a burst of magical energy, sending several goblins flying.

Grimgor charged into the fray, bellowing a battle cry, his great axe cleaving through goblins left and right.

The goblins fought back fiercely, but the adventurers were well-trained and well-armed, and slowly pushed them back.

As the last of the goblins fell, the adventurers paused to catch their breath.

They had won the day, but they knew that there were more dangers ahead.

With weapons still at the ready, they continued deeper into the goblin's nest, ready to face whatever lay ahead.

While they were moving they noticed a man wearing a Concealment robe wandering around. 

"This man looks shady I should stay away from whatever he would be doing." Cedric thought inwardly.

After going a little far from that man, he contacted the hunter association and reported about the man. 

As Cedric was one of the hunters associated with the hunter association, a team was dispatched. 

After a few moments, the hunter team arrived at the dungeon. 

As they moved cautiously with Cedric's team. 

After conversing a bit, Cedric led them to where he spotted that man. 

However, they didn't find that man there. 

Rather they saw corpses of goblins. 

"Maybe these goblins were hunted by that man?" Lila commented. 

"Maybe, let's follow the trail," Cedric spoke. 

As they followed the trail, they found more and more corpses of goblins. 

Eventually, they arrived at the location of the boss monster: Hob-goblin. 

However, when they entered the boss's room, they were shocked. 

The Hob-goblin was already killed. Around his dead body, many corpses of goblins were lying. 

But the more surprising thing was, that man wasn't there.

It was like he disappeared into the air.

[Some time ago] 

After leaving his home, Rain journeyed to the Goblin Nest, which was not far from Karoon City.

He needed to escape from everything, and this was his chance.

"Sometimes, in certain areas, a mysteriously one-time-use teleportation portal will open, and you will be transported somewhere," Rain thought to himself.

However, this was a side effect of dimension collision; the main root behind every problem.

This was explained by the author, and as an example, he gave the name of one gate. 

Coincidentally, that gate was in the goblin's nest. 

Rain had learned about a hidden passage in the Goblin Nest that led to the portal.

Once he used the portal, it would disappear, and he would be transported to an inhabited island.

[This information was given by the author in a Q&A session.]

"So even if people check where I am, they will think my last location was the Goblin Nest." Rain chuckled, thinking about the reactions of everyone.

While he was thinking, he saw a group of adventures. Somehow the leader of that group looked at him warily. 

"Why does he look at me like that? Does society discriminate against the villains?" Rain wondered. 

As known the route beforehand, he didn't take much time before arriving at the hidden passage. 

He only had to take care of a few small goblins and a large, fearsome goblin.

Since the materials from the goblins were not important, Rain did not bother to take them.

He didn't want to be noticed by the adventurers who might be lurking in the area because things might get troublesome if anyone else noticed him. 

As he walked into the hidden passage in the boss room, he finally reached where the portal was.

After defeating the large goblin, Rain searched the room and noticed a loose stone in the wall.

"Here is the cliche hidden room." 

He pushed on the stone and it revealed a small opening.

"The author should have used some creativity." He clicked his tongue. 

Cautiously, he entered the passage and walked through the narrow, winding tunnel. The walls were covered in moss and the air was damp and musty.

After a few minutes of walking, he emerged in a small room where the teleportation portal was located.

It was hidden behind a large stone statue and was almost invisible to the untrained eye.

Rain carefully approached the portal and studied it for a moment.

He remembered what the author had said during the Q&A session and stepped confidently into the portal, knowing that it was his only chance to escape from everything.

"This is my key to escape," Rain said to himself. 

As he stepped through the portal, he felt a sudden rush of energy as he was transported to another dimension. 

The air crackled with electricity, and his senses were overloaded with a barrage of strange sights and sounds.

On the other side, that portal vanished without a trace. 

When Rain opened his eyes, he found himself on a vast and unfamiliar island, surrounded by a dense jungle.

The air was thick with humidity, and he could feel beads of sweat forming on his forehead.

Rain took a moment to survey his surroundings.

The island was expansive, featuring dense forests and towering mountains that rose to kiss the sky.

The sun was shining brightly, casting a warm and inviting glow over the landscape.

The weather was perfect for relaxation, with the sun's rays providing just the right amount of warmth without being too hot.

Rain wasted no time in getting to work, setting up the portable mansion that he had purchased from the black market.

The mansion was a lightweight, foldable structure that could be assembled easily, but also had sturdy and durable materials that could withstand the harsh elements of the wild.

It had a simple design with white walls, a blue roof, and a wooden door.

As he set up the various components of the house, Rain thought about his decision to come to this island.

He had been feeling overwhelmed and exhausted after a "long" journey, and he needed a break from everything.

The mansion would be his sanctuary, a place to rest and recharge his batteries.

After finishing the setup, Rain sat down on the beach, taking in the sights and sounds of his new surroundings.

He felt the warm sand beneath his feet, and the cool ocean breeze blowing through his hair.

The waves gently lapped at the shore, creating a soothing rhythm that was both peaceful and calming.

"Now my birthday party would have started. Maybe there would be all the main characters." He mused over as he thought about the birthday party. 

"Still, who cares not like I would have gained anything after meeting them. Let's send them a message."

He clicked his tongue and sent them a message saying he won't come to the party. 

And he also set a timer for the next message in the morning. 

"May their morning be good." Rain "wished" honestly. 

As he looked out at the vast expanse of the sea, Rain felt a sense of relief and tranquility wash over him.

He knew that he had made the right choice in coming to this island.

"Things are just starting. I am looking forward to it." He was expecting many things from his plan.

Things are just starting. I am looking forward to it." He was expecting many things from his plan.

He was looking forward to exploring the island and discovering all of its hidden secrets, from the lush forests to the rugged mountain peaks.

The fresh sea air was invigorating, and the salty scent of the ocean was refreshing.

As he thought about his plans, Rain knew that this was just the beginning.

He was expecting many things from his time on the island, and he couldn't wait to see what the future held.
