However, upon meeting the priestess and forming a party, he becomes more human again and has a lot of suppressed trauma, which we see in season 2 as he breaks down emotionally at the end of the second episode.

He sees himself in the Wizard Boy and feels guilty for creating another version of him.

However, there’s a silver lining: the Goblin Slayer is there to guide the boy and help him become a better version.

This will be the happy ending we are all looking forward to, the Goblin Slayer will overcome his trauma by going on various quests with his party and help everyone grow.

As such, he might even grow more as a person and end up with someone, as of now, he doesn’t have any love interests, but that could change in the future.

There is a ray of hope as even the know-it-all archetype, the rookie Wizard Boy, underwent some change after jumping head-first into the trap set by goblins and the troll in episode 2.

He realized his mistake and even apologized to the Priestess, he had severely underestimated.

The priestess still has a long way to go as she faltered during the quest to the mausoleum.

However, she has done well in facing her emotional turmoil and is ready to help people with her spells.
