"This thing sure is hard... It takes so long to mine with a gold Pickaxe even with mining potions..."

Inside the corruption underground, Aspen continued mining without minding the occasional Eater of souls that would try to attack him. He was, after all, too focused on getting all the Demonite possible in the shortest amount of time possible. After all, who knew if the Eater of Worlds was lurking around or not...

If he was not wrong, there should be some Shadow orbs below where he was right now. However, besides giving him some new weapons, these things weren't much of interest for Aspen, as breaking three of them would mean to call the Eater of Worlds and ask himself to get killed

He was fast, agile, and super strong compared to other humans. However, in a small cave-like this, against a giant Worm who can shoot acidic spit from his whole body repeatedly, he didn't think there was that much chance of surviving.

Thus, all he cared now was about the Demonite in front of him. Maybe, if he learned enough about smithing, he would be able to produce his own armor without the need of the shadow scales that one would receive from the Eater of Worlds after killing it... However, for the time being he just needed to care about hurrying up before anything bad can happen.

It was then, during one of his usual inspections to his surroundings just in case there was any kind of new enemy or a horde too difficult for him to handle, that he noticed a certain figure watching him from afar.

The figure had a bluish-green tone on its skin, and it had the same sharp ending ears of Elf and Goblins... All in all, it looked pretty much like a Goblin.

It was wearing some dirty and mistreated robes all over its body, so it had some kind of fugitive feeling around it. However, for Aspen none of this mattered, a goblin was, after all, a goblin.

In just the split of a second, he channeled an enormous amount of mana and heat on the tip of his finger and then pointed it towards the Goblin hiding behind one of the walls of the cave.

Without hesitation, Aspen released the highly condensed heat-ray from his finger and shot towards the spot where the Golbin was hiding, aiming specifically for his head.

Surprisingly, as if sensing danger, the Goblin rapidly threw himself to the ground and dodged the death-ray of Aspen by just a few centimeters. Making Aspen widen his eyes in surprise, as he didn't think that a Goblin could actually have reflexes like those, because as far as he has understood, Goblins lacked a lot in the mental, reflexive, and speed departments... 

"He does look a bit different now that I think about it..."

Soon, the Goblin got up rapidly from the ground and turned to look at Aspen with a hostile expression in his eyes. It didn't utter a single word, however, it soon took out two spiky balls attached to chains that he started swinging around in an intimidating manner, and then took a battle pose while looking at Aspen with an expression full of readiness to die.

Taking out his BloodButcherer, Aspen also prepared himself to fight a new type of Goblin he had not seen before. However, in order to make sure that he knew what kind of enemy he was dealing with, he decided to check up his status and see if it had some weird status related to chaos or something else, after all, chaos seems to be the thing that always causes him problems... Be it the Chaos God, the Lunatic cultist being a chaos human, the Eye of Cthulhu... and so on...
