Goblin Reincarnation in Another World (Anime/Manga)

"It's nothing, we didn't come here for tourism anyway."

"Oh? Does Master still have the right to make such grand pronouncements? His performance last night certainly didn't show that."

As expected, upon hearing Niu Zida's boastful words, Misato Shizuku could no longer contain herself and retorted, essentially revealing everything Niu Zida and Shokuhou Misaki had done that night. Shokuhou Misaki covered her mouth and laughed, seemingly unconcerned, while Yangyang lowered her head in shame, as if she had done something wrong.

Just as Niu Zida was about to start another verbal sparring session with Sanxiang Shizuku, the sound of guards' footsteps suddenly came from outside. Everyone wondered what was so urgent so early in the morning. The guard who entered was panting heavily and said in a flustered manner:

"Yang...Lady Yangyang...a new victim...has appeared..."

Chapter 278 Investigating a Mysterious Case 1

Chapter 278.

"What? A new victim?"

Upon hearing the news from the guard, Yangyang stood up in shock, her beautiful eyes fixed on the guard, even her elegant lips twitched slightly, and her pupils contracted.

Where were the victims found? How many were there?

Niu Zida remained calm and directly inquired about the situation at the scene from the guards. The nervous guards quickly swallowed and replied:

"In the village at the northernmost part of the castle, there were two dead people, a man and a woman, a hunting couple."

"Let's go take a look."

Following Niu Zida's orders, the guards led a group of people out of the castle and to the village to the north. Sure enough, there were two corpses lying by the village warehouse. The rest of the villagers were too frightened to come out of their rooms. The guards only brought the person who first discovered the corpses to be questioned.

When did you discover the body?

"This morning, I was supposed to come and buy furs today, but when I got here, it was quiet. When I went inside, I found that the couple had died."

"Are you a fur trader?"

"Yes, I am a fur trader named Lato. I regularly come to this trading area, Hetherlink Port, to sell my goods. I also bring some back to sell on my return trip. Because of my long-term business dealings, I am quite familiar with the hunters here."

"Don't these hunters have any enemies?"

"This territory is relatively peaceful, with few conflicts. Besides, it's sparsely populated, so people rarely see each other. How could there be any conflicts?"

"Yangyang, is that really true?"

"Yes, most of the people here are very friendly, and I haven't heard of any conflicts."

Niu Zida pondered for a while and then went to look at the two corpses again. Just as Yangyang had said, the corpses were indeed covered in water droplets and soaked through, clearly showing signs of being soaked. However, there was no water source nearby. There was a stream two or three kilometers away, but the stream was very shallow, and even if a person lay in it, they could not achieve such a soaking effect.

"Are these two corpses in the same condition as before?"

"Well, yes..."

"You discovered the body yesterday when you came here? How often do you come here?"

"Well, I come here about once a month. This time I only came because it was the agreed-upon day to collect the fur. Otherwise, I wouldn't come to such a remote mountain forest."

"Then can you be sure that you discovered them immediately after they died?"

"I don't know about that..."

"Yangyang, approximately how long after the previous body was discovered?"

"It's summer now, and the weather is so hot, yet the body is still so well preserved. It looks like the person died not long ago, right?"

Yangyang shared her opinion, and Niu Zida circled the corpse again, observing it carefully without saying a word, before continuing to ask:

"Were all the previous victims hunters in the forest? Who could have seen them on ordinary days?"

“This area is a forest, and I’m afraid there’s really no one there except hunters and woodcutters. Actually, this area was originally the lord’s direct territory. I opened this part to the people to come in and hunt. When Bozeman came before, he advised me not to develop this forest area to ordinary people, saying that if the lord’s land is given to the people to use for free, over time these people will wantonly encroach on it.”

Hearing Yangyang's words, Niu Zida pondered for a while. At this moment, he was being held by Shokuhou Misaki. While thinking about the problem, he subconsciously pinched and kneaded Shokuhou Misaki's large breasts. Because he was too engrossed in thinking, the way his fingers pinched and kneaded the breasts was a little rough, and Shokuhou Misaki couldn't help but let out a sweet moan.

"Master...ah...your hand..."

Hearing his beautiful white-stockinged mare's complaints, Niu Zida realized his actions and quickly withdrew his hand, only to find his large breasts already covered in bright red finger marks. And because of Misaki Shokuhou's moans, even Yangyang next to him...

Chapter 368

Blushing and unsure what to say, Niu Zida realized that Yangyang seemed to be a very shy girl.

"Are there any other hunters around here? Let's go ask them."

Yangyang had previously mentioned that she had inquired with nearby hunters and hadn't heard of them seeing any suspicious people in the area. Niu Zida's insistence on asking again piqued Yangyang's curiosity; she wondered if there was anything she hadn't asked. However, since it was Niu Zida's order, Yangyang had no choice but to lead him to find the nearest hunter. From there, they would have to cross a mountain and walk at least seven or eight kilometers along a mountain path.

"There are only about a hundred hunters here, scattered across a mountainous area of ​​about seven or eight square kilometers."

A population of around 100 people living in a mountainous area of ​​50 to 60 square kilometers, with perhaps less than two people per square kilometer, is even less dense than the Amazon rainforest. No wonder they rarely see each other. In such a place, the probability of encountering a ghost is probably higher than encountering a person. Trying to investigate a case through witness testimony would be as difficult as climbing to the sky.

The mountain road was difficult to traverse, so the group had no choice but to walk for two hours before reaching a nearby hunter's family. It was a family of three who happened to be having lunch. At first, they were startled by the sudden appearance of such a large group of people, especially when they saw goblins among them. However, when they saw that it was Yangyang and that she had explained Niu Zida's background, they lowered their guard.

"This is the closest house in the neighborhood. The hunter's house was also near the last murder case, but it's actually an hour's walk from here."

"Are you here to investigate old Demaille? Last month really gave me a fright... I didn't see him come out for a week to drink with me, and when I went to look for him, I found he was already dead... Sigh, besides the Sothos couple, old Demaille was the only other person around here. Sothos didn't even like to drink, and now that old Demaille is dead, I don't even have anyone to drink with..."

The head of the household was a tall, middle-aged man with a scar on his face named Seifer. After hearing Yangyang's introduction and saying that he wanted to learn more about the previous case, Seifer briefly explained the case to Niu Zida again:

“That day I went to find old Demaier and found him lying on the ground, completely soaked and pale. At first I thought he had drunk too much, but when I checked his breathing, I found he had already passed away and his body was stiff. I was so frightened that I ran for a whole day before I arrived at the territory to report to Lord Yangyang…”

It only takes a day to run from here to the castle. This Seifer is really good at stamina. No wonder he can survive in this desolate forest with his wife and children.

Do you know this Lato?

"Oh, of course I know him. He comes here regularly to buy furs. But he can't hold his liquor. He gets along pretty well with the Sothos family next door."

Hearing Severn's words, Niu Zida pointed to Lato beside him. Severn recognized him accurately; just as Lato had said, he was indeed a fur trader. The place Severn referred to as "next door" was about a two-hour walk from the forest area.

"Lato, why do you look so upset?"

"The Sothos family is dead..."

"What? They're both dead?"

Upon hearing Lato's words, Seifer's eyes widened in surprise. Just then, Seifer's youngest son started crying, and Seifer's wife quickly took the child and left.

"Sorry, did we scare the child?"

"No, no, it has nothing to do with that. This child has been crying incessantly lately. He's already nine years old, but he's very weak and cries at the drop of a hat. He's also been catching colds and fevers frequently lately. It's really strange... He was perfectly healthy when we moved here two years ago... Speaking of which, my wife and I haven't been feeling well since we came here either. The environment here is quite nice. Is it because we're working too hard?"

"Why did you move here when life is so hard here?"

"Because we have no land, only Master Yangyang is willing to open up the forest area for us to live in, and the taxes collected each year are very small. Rather than saying we like this place, it's more accurate to say that this is the only place for poor people like us to go. What is a remote and impoverished place for others is paradise for us..."

Chapter 279 Camping in the Wild

Chapter 279.

Despite the heartbreaking words spoken by Severus, Scarface still managed an ugly smile. Niu Zida sighed inwardly, realizing that even in another world, the poor still suffered greatly.

Putting aside his sympathy, Niu Zida then inquired about things around Saiful, such as whether there were any other families besides theirs, and how he got along with other hunters. Saiful honestly answered, telling Niu Zida that there were a few hunter families beyond the mountains, and some part-hunters and part-woodcutters deeper in the mountains. Although the forest area around the mountain wasn't particularly large, the high slopes divided the area, so the hunters and woodcutters on the south and north sides rarely interacted. The southern part of the mountain was sparsely populated; most of the residents actually lived in the northern part, with seven or eight families living together—essentially the only village in the vicinity. Most of the population of the entire forest area was concentrated there.

"However, if you're going from here to there, it might take you until nightfall to get there."

Sever looked at the beautiful woman behind Niu Zida

Chapter 369

"Yu's harem," he couldn't help but say. Actually, he had doubts from the beginning. Could he really solve the case by bringing all these beautifully dressed women? Of course, what surprised him most was that even a goblin could now become a noble; times had truly changed.

After checking the weather, Niu Zida decided to rest here for a while. As for the bodies of the Sothos couple, he had already had the castle guards arrange for their burial after he had finished examining them.

Fortunately, he had brought his entourage and some tents with him, so the group set up camp near Seifer's house. Niu Zida also specially arranged for someone to give Seifer some wheat, grain, and brand-new axe, bow and arrow, cloth and other living supplies. In this deep mountain forest, these things were actually more useful to him than money.

"I see your child is always crying and fussing. What could be the reason? Is he sick?"

"I don't know either. Everything was fine the first year we moved here, but this year my child's health has been really bad... It's always like this..."

After a simple campsite and dinner, the group had a quick meal. Summer nights are long, and the sun didn't truly set until around 8 pm. Before dinner, while it was still slightly dark, Haruyuki Arita conducted some reconnaissance in the sky. After dinner, Ushikoda, seeing Seifer starting to cry again, couldn't help but ask him a question. Seifer could only reply with a wry smile.

This time, I only brought my battle maids, Joel, Shizuku Misato, Kuroyukihime, and Asuna. I didn't bring Shinkai, who can heal, or Kanzaki Keine, especially since Kanzaki Keine is currently with the Duke in Heatherlink. If she were here, she could probably diagnose Severn's child's condition much faster.

"Is this child a girl? Is she not used to the environment here?"

Sever scratched his head and sighed. His words were full of sorrow. Niu Zida also knew that if his family left here and went elsewhere, they would not have enough to eat. Staying here was supposed to be their choice, but in fact, they had no choice at all.

"Master, there's something strange I'd like to tell you..."

Niu Zida was still chatting when Kuroyukihime suddenly leaned over and whispered something. Niu Zida was puzzled and had Shokuhou Misaki pull him over. Kuroyukihime, holding the sample of the sculpted object made from the floating eukaryotes she had previously entrusted to her, said:

"Master, look, this thing seems to be glowing now..."

Niu Zida leaned closer to take a look and discovered that the sculpture was glowing blue and felt warm to the touch. Joel, noticing the unusual feature, exclaimed in surprise:

“Master, it seems that this place is filled with imaginary energy.”

"Hey, how did you know?"

"When I was summoned to this world by Lord Illusion, I was taught basic knowledge of imaginary energy..."

Niu Zida only realized after hearing what Joel said that Joel had come to his side because Huanlong had given her to him. About two years had passed, and he had almost forgotten about it.

Niu Zida took the sculpture and felt it. Sure enough, he could feel the overflow of energy. In essence, the driving force of the contract is to control the contract by manipulating imaginary energy to infect the mind of an individual. Although Niu Zida cannot yet control imaginary energy, he can perceive it without any problem.

"Sure enough, the imaginary energy here has reached its limit, and this day has come..."

Niu Zida sensed the energy slowly overflowing from the sculpture and suddenly realized something. However, more evidence was still needed to be collected. Even if this could solve some of the mysteries, the key issue of the murder case remained unsolved.

When it was time to sleep at night, Niu Zida had Misaki Shokuhou hold him while he slept. The rest of the people were in another tent, while the coachman, servants, maids, and Haruyuki Arita stayed in another tent. However, Yoel insisted on staying with Niu Zida, since Misaki Shokuhou's ability was mind control. If Niu Zida couldn't handle a sudden attack, he could easily be in danger. Niu Zida also knew that Yoel wasn't the type to be jealous, and that her insistence on staying with him was simply because she was worried that he wasn't vying for his favor. So, Niu Zida agreed to Yoel's suggestion.

That night, Niu Zida lay on top of Misaki Shokuhou's delicate body, parted her white-stockinged thighs, and thrust himself into her hard. Misaki Shokuhou covered her red, tender mouth, using her white stockings to wrap around Niu Zida's short body. With each of Niu Zida's powerful thrusts, Misaki Shokuhou quickly begged for mercy:

"Master... don't use so much force... otherwise if you shout again... everyone will notice..."

"What's wrong with me? Do I have to care about what other people think when I'm riding my own mare?"

"But...oh...people will look at me strangely..."

"What's wrong with that? You're my mare, it's only natural for me to ride you."

Niu Zida didn't care about any of that. He reached out and grabbed Misaki Shokuhou's breasts tightly. Using that as leverage, he swung his waist muscles and thrust hard into Misaki Shokuhou's beautiful vulva. Misaki Shokuhou was exhausted again. In the end, even covering her mouth, she failed completely. By the time Niu Zida had ejaculated into her uterus, Misaki Shokuhou was completely wrapped around Niu Zida's body like an octopus, almost swallowing his short body with her slender limbs...

The next morning, after getting up, Niu Zida was carried out of the tent by Misaki Shokuhou for breakfast. He immediately rolled his eyes at Shizuku Misato, looking sullen. Kuroyukihime and Asuna were also somewhat embarrassed, while Yangyang, standing to the side, bit her lip in embarrassment, unsure what to say. She didn't even have the courage to look Niu Zida in the eye.

Chapter 370

.

Have.

"Did everyone get a good night's rest last night? It's so quiet in the forest, hahaha..."

"Yes, it's just that there are too many random noises that are affecting my sleep."

"Really? I didn't hear that."

Of course, Misato Shizuku was mocking her and Ushiko Tatsu for being too loud during their encounter last night. However, Misato simply stroked her long blonde hair and smiled nonchalantly. It wasn't that she didn't know how to be shy, but the queen-like Misato would never show any cowardice in front of her rival. Even if she was shy, it was only when she was in bed and acting cute with her master.

"What's that strange sound? Did you hear it again? Yangyang, did you hear it?"

"Um... I... I didn't notice..."

When Niu Zida suddenly steered the conversation toward her, Yangyang quickly blushed, lowered her head, and shook her head in denial, as if she were the one who made the strange noise.

Asuna was busy cooking porridge and didn't want to participate in the conversation at all. Kuroyukihime wanted to help but Asuna stopped her. It wasn't that she didn't trust her friend, but that Kuroyukihime's cooking skills were really too bad, probably only at the level of a ramen noodle lover. After trying a few times, Asuna really didn't feel comfortable entrusting such an important task as cooking to Kuroyukihime.

Just as the group was busily preparing breakfast around the campfire, making a lot of noise, Seifer suddenly ran over and said to Yangyang in a panic:

"No...nothing's wrong...my son...my son...is missing..."

Chapter 280 Investigating the Mysterious Case 2

Chapter 280.

"Calm down, what did you say?"

"My son is missing this morning."

"How could this be? Didn't we sleep together last night?"

"Well... last night... we slept together, but after the strange noise, the child started crying all night. My wife spent half the night trying to soothe him, and it took her a long time to finally fall asleep. When we woke up this morning, we were still groggy. It wasn't until we realized something was wrong and my wife and I looked around that we found he was gone."

Upon hearing what Seifer said, Misato Shizuku rolled her eyes at Niu Zida. Niu Zida was now embarrassed. He hadn't expected that the sounds of him and Misaki Shokuhou making love last night had traveled so far. It seemed that the whole camp knew about it.

In the distance, Seifer's wife was weeping and wailing. The pain of losing a child is unbearable for a mother. Niu Zida knew it was best not to comfort her at this time, otherwise it might cause her to lose control of her emotions. After all, it was because he and Misaki Shokuhou had been doing things last night that the child cried and made a fuss until midnight, causing them to be exhausted and unable to keep an eye on the child. Although this logic was a bit far-fetched, it would be troublesome if she thought of him as a dog slave. It was better for him to avoid causing trouble at this time.
