A Goblin's Leveling System

Another Day, Another Leveling Up

He sounds like some powerful being who had overcome and defeated many strong ones.

He might rival the demon king in terms of strength but I doubt this old dragon can defeat the whole demon race. That must be the reason why he remains dormant and always sleep as nothing has ever happened.

"I have come to find a worthy opponent for myself and also to hone my magic spells. I have defeated a lot of dragons in this mountain and none of them is a worthy opponent so I seek this mighty one's for requesting a duel with you!", I answer the dragon king's question while not wavering at his domineering presence.

I activate half of my power to show the dragon king that I can defeat anyone in this mountain.

"What an interesting fellow who hasn't wavered in my presence but instead shows his power in front of this old one. I must have been sleeping for a long time and this generation's youngsters are quite interesting.", The dragon king says to me.

He doesn't mind that someone disturbs his slumber but instead shows fascination and interest towards me.

He must have deemed me as a worthy opponent and not just someone who is courting death.

"I do admit that I'm surprised that I stumbled upon your cave and if I had known that you lived here then I wouldn't have dared to enter your cave and disturb your slumber. It must be fate that allowed me to encounter you.", I humbly say to the dragon king.

Unlike the beastman king I had met in Eldion, this dragon king is someone worthy of my respect and admiration so I remain humble in his presence.

The dragon king's body starts to shrink until his size is just a bit taller than me and it seems that he transformed into his human form.

"I will request something from you and as compensation, I will reward you.", The dragon king says to me.

"I'm listening for your request.", I reply to the dragon king.

"I want you to prove to me that you are worthy of my daughter's hand in marriage. If you are a powerful being then you might pass my test.", The dragon king says to me.

"Eh?! I didn't come here to request your daughter's hand in marriage and not to mention that I already have a fiancee. She will kill me if I am cheating on her.", I say to the king while showing that I'm confused by his request.

"Having two girlfriends is normal for a handsome and powerful young man like you and some even have six of them.", The dragon king says.

"I don't plan on making a harem and I am loyal towards my fiancee so it will be impossible for me to accept your request.", I answer the dragon king.

"What are you here for then? Most beings who come to me are testing their luck if they appease me and allows me to accept their son as my son in law.", The dragon king says.

"I have no idea about that... I only came here to find a powerful being who will be my sparring partner since I encountered most of the dragons in here and none of them rival me.", I honestly reply to the dragon king.

The dragon king seems to be in deep thinking right now since the pause for a while and starts thinking about what to do next.

I don't want a harem and that's my honest opinion. It's troublesome to take care of a lot of wives and that's the reason why I still don't have a girlfriend when I was on Earth.

I'm also picky when it comes to choosing my wife but after seeing Aerin, I thought of her as someone who is similar to me in terms of personalities and she seems to be loyal and honest so I agreed to accept her as my fiancee and not to mention that she has good looks as I have.

"Are you here just to spar with me? I am quite disappointed that someone powerful like you won't be my daughter's boyfriend but I am still happy that you said your honest opinion. I don't want to force you anyway.", The dragon king says.

I start to gather a lot of black fireballs in my left hand and say, "Shall we get started?"

"Ready when you are!", The dragon king says while preparing some magic spells of his own.

I throw [Explosive Fireball] towards the dragon king and it explodes after making contact with his body.

I wasn't surprised that he left unscathed since my arrival in his cave will be useless if he will be defeated by a simple explosive fireball.

"I gotta say that despite using a low ranking spell, you made it destructive and powerful but it won't be enough to wound me!", The dragon king says and he dashes towards me with astonishing speed but my eyes can still see him despite his quick movement.

"[Shadow Domain]!", I chant and the cave suddenly turns dark.

"[Shadow Monarch's Bind]!", I chant and a thousand shadow clones start to hold the dragon king and restrain him from moving.

The dragon king struggles to break free but to no avail, he didn't break free from my magic spell.

"I am impressed that you can bind me with this magic spell despite me using 20% of my strength.", The dragon king says to me while being bind by my magic spell.

"Looks like you have weakened from the slumber you have. I only used 50% of my strength and I still haven't used my strength-enhancing skill and also my strongest spell.", I say to the dragon king.

The dragon king's power starts to rise and he eventually breaks free from my bind.

"Shall we use all of our power?", The dragon king asks me.

"I thought you will never ask!", I answer the dragon king while releasing all of my strength and activating [Limit Break].
