Story transcript

Ubel: So this is Golbin Slayer? ...What is that smell?!

Goblin Slayer: Goblin guts. Put it on to cover your smell, and keep us hidden from goblins smelling us.

Aligorna the Black-Knight: Less talking. More stinking. Dawn's burning.

Ubel: This feels unnecessary. And if this sticks, I will slice you two in revenge.

Goblin Slayer: Save that for the goblins. There are at least fifty.

Aligorna the Black-Knight: First time's always bile-worthy. Keeps you alive.

Ubel: Alive works.

Goblin Slayer: I will take point, Aligorna. Lead the flank with Mage.

Ubel: Bet I can kill more than the legendary Goblin Slayer.

Aligorna the Black-Knight: Dont over exert yourself. Please watch my back, so we can get in, kill the goblins, and save the girls being used.

Goblin Slayer: Keep score if you want. Just don't die.

Ubel: Likewise, Goblin Slayer.

Aligorna the Black-Knight: This is not a competiton Ubel. Lives are on the line.

Ubel: Try not to slip on all the goblins I'll drop!

Goblin Slayer: I'm going in. You two, follow from behind.

Ubel: Then let's follow the Goblin Slayer, black knight. We got goblins to slay.

Aligorna the Black-Knight: Indeed.

Goblin Slayer: One left. North corridor.

Aligorna the Black-Knight: Mine.

Ubel: I am NOT spending one more second smelling like goblin intestines!

Goblin Slayer: Wait—

Ubel: The only good goblin is a—

Ubel: —dead goblin?!

Aligorna the Black-Knight: Idiot mage!

Ubel: Of course. Of course there's a trash trap.

Aligorna the Black-Knight: None of you green little beasts will lay a hand on the mage!

Goblin Slayer: She's bait now. Use it.

Ubel: I HEARD THAT!

Ubel: I am NEVER living this down, am I?

Aligorna the Black-Knight: Next time, maybe listen when the professionals say 'wait.'

Goblin Slayer: Found coin. You still owe me for the bathhouse.

Ubel: I'll pay double if we find hot water that actually removes the smell of my humiliation.
