[CHAPTER 7 : I'M TIRED]

Thili arrived at the riverside, where he drank water from the river and checked what was inside the bag given by Nenek Yuna. The bag contained several coins called "Dukats," which could be exchanged for food, clothing, or goods. It also had a small knife and some snacks. Thili began eating and drinking from the river water.

Thili saved some water as a refill for his supplies and continued his journey through the forest. After a while, Thili heard a noise. He thought it might be a village, but it turned out to be a young adventurer girl being attacked by a group of goblins, including one large, fat goblin.

Thili watched the fight from behind the bushes. The young adventurer fought fiercely and managed to defeat one giant goblin and several others. However, the girl lost the battle, severely wounded and losing a lot of blood. The goblins retreated. Thili approached the girl only to find her lifeless body. Her sword was cracked, and there were only a few bottles of liquid and some herbs/medicine.

Thili quickly took all the girl's equipment and Dukats she had with her. Suddenly, rustling sounds came from nearby bushes. Thili swiftly searched for a hiding spot and discovered a small opening beneath the body of the giant goblin.

Thili entered the opening, covered in blood with a foul stench. Peeking through a small gap, Thili saw the girl's body being repeatedly beaten with a wooden club. The goblins urinated on her and mocked her. Thili controlled his breath and movements, trying not to be detected by the goblins. The goblins stood and jumped on the giant goblin, as if celebrating its death. Then they all left the area, and rain began to fall.

Thili crawled out and saw the girl's lifeless body. Nothing remained of her. Her face was crushed, her legs severed, and her entire body turned purple. Thili continued his journey. He arrived at a town but stopped when he sensed a bad atmosphere emanating from it. Thili turned back into the forest and continued his journey to the next town.
