The Goblin Riders ｢狼鬼兵軍団, goburin raidā, lit. "Wolf Oni Squad"｣ are the elites of Tempest's military. They are in charge of patrolling the Rimuru City. Thanks to their speed, they have been ensuring the safety of the area.
Appearance[]
As the name implies, this unit consists of hobgoblins riding star wolves. When Fusion is activated, Goblin Riders look a lot like the top half of hobgoblins has their torso fused with the bottom half of a wolf.
History[]
After the battle of the goblin village, Rimuru ordered the goblins and wolves to become pairs and live together.
Before the evolution, the goblins, survived by gathering fruit, edible grass, and hunting edible monsters and creatures. Thanks to coordinating with the Tempest Wolves, their habitat remarkably widened. The shocking thing was when they became a pair they were able to use Thought Communication.
Over the course of time, the wolves increased to 100, hence, 100 riders. Amongst them, captain Rigur and vice captain Gobta, have an overwhelming presence over the others.
As if they were a skilled team, even their breathing is synchronized. This suggests a high level of proficiency.
The Goblin Riders and the Star Wolves acquired the rare extra skill Fusion, as a result of the Harvest Festival Gift. They become as if one being, able to move quickly on all fours and get a boost of strength. Their strength puts them at about rank A- (A in Volume 12). Even the worst among them would dominate the B ranked. Surprisingly, all one hundred have this skill.
They would eventually join the Green Numbers as Tempest's First Corps under Gobta ahead of the Nasca Namrium Ulmeria United Eastern Empire's invasion of the Great Jura Forest.
