Also , one thing iam really afraid of is her befriending the goblins , which might happen from what i can tell from the synopsis of the story.

And i feel she is gonna cook them food. I dunno.

Chess. She plays chess.

It wasn’t just that they were killed. Most likely, if Relc had told Erin that he had killed the two goblins, she wouldn’t care all that much.

No, it’s the fact that he brought her two severed heads like a trophy.

Most people can’t even hold themselves composed when seeing a dead body, let alone one that had been gruesomely murdered. Being presented with two freshly severed heads? 99.99% of people would act almost exactly like Erin did.

Go read some accounts of EMTs or police on their first (or second, or even third/fourth/fifth/etc) instances of stuff like that. People that are trained and expecting it often still react very badly.

Why wouldn’t Erin respond that way? She clearly has lived her entire life without any real first-hand violence. She’s going to be absolutely horrified by severed heads in any situation presented to her.
And yes, the goblins have harassed her. Yes, she’s been hurt by them. However, not only has she learned that they gain levels (which makes them… more real/anthropomorphized?), she’s learned that they have tribes. Families. They make baskets and hunter-gather. The little goblin was even more clever than Erin when learning about how to differentiate when blue fruits were bad.
They’re still people, and Erin just saw how easily they were brutalized and expected to celebrate over it.

Yeah your right, imagined someone who hunts you or trying to kill you, while you run shouting and screaming on the first encounter, with near to death instances fighting with them, then you see your them again dead and you gone shock like you’ve lost a love one. Like what!!??

With all due respect, it makes perfect sense. Erin quite obviously has never been confronted with Death before, at least not in this sense. Maybe she has gotten away with few to no deaths in her family, which is quite possible at the age of 20. Furthermore, the way Relc nonchalantly presented her with the 2 severed heads as gifts added to this. I would like to see how you would react to 2 severed heads of humans served to you on a platter. I at least can quite reasonably explain to myself her pacifist views…

Why is she so afflicted that the goblins were killed? Why would she care? They tried killing her several times, the less of them the better, from all she knows they are just animals. And then she goes looking for the bodies to bury them… WHY? Why spend time and energy looking for them, digging (breaking tools, hurting herself in the process, getting exposed to another goblin to attack) when she could spend all that time and energy on other things that actually matter to her survival.

I really like the idea of this book and how it’s written, but the more and more aggravating things like this happen the more I want to stop reading.
