In a world plagued by the constant threat of goblins, creatures known for their cruelty, cunning and rapid reproduction, a brave priestess as young as 15 embarks on her first challenge as an adventurer. Although experienced adventurers often undervalue goblin-related quests in favor of those offering greater rewards, these beings are a real plague terrorizing the most vulnerable communities, kidnapping women of different species to perpetuate their lineage and wreaking havoc wherever they appear.
The fate of the priestess is intertwined with that of a group of novice adventurers, who, full of optimism and courage, have decided to eradicate a goblin tribe accused of the disappearance of several women in a nearby village. However, their inexperience and lack of preparation lead them into an ambush deep inside a goblin cave, where they find themselves in grave danger. When all hope seems lost, an unexpected savior emerges: the dreaded “Goblin Slayer”.
The Goblin Slayer, a Silver-ranked warrior whose name instills equal parts respect and fear, not only saves the priestess from an impending doom, but also eradicates the entire goblin colony with impressive efficiency. Inviting the young priestess to be part of his mission to wipe out the goblin plague, the Goblin Slayer embarks on a relentless crusade to aid the Adventurer’s Guild in all matters concerning these monsters.
Along with a crew of diverse companions, including a high elf, a dwarf and a lizard man, this unyielding warrior will not stop until the last of these creatures are exterminated from the borderlands. In this tale of bravery and perseverance, the “Goblin Slayer” and his team will face all manner of obstacles in their never-ending fight against the goblin menace.
