== Plot == After being murdered at the hands of a lustful woman, Tomokui Kanata is reincarnated in another world among a tribe of goblins. Although goblins are among the weakest of monsters, Tomokui, named Gobrou by the clan elder, has retained the memories of his human past, as well as his extrasensory power: Absorption. Thanks to this ability, which allows him to absorb the powers of anything he eats, he becomes the strongest of his tribe and the leader of a legendary mercenary group, Parabellum.
