The Evolution Of A Goblin To The Peak

Chapter 381 - Vs. Ten Thousand

"Here they are."

Souta, Lydia, Isabella, and Yuko were on the top of the walls looking at the figures coming out of the woods.

Figures that were wearing black armor that covered their entire body came out of the woods. Their numbers reached ten thousand and for the Riverpool City, this army was their doom. The strength and numbers surpassed everything that they could offer.

The figures looked the same with their black armor. It felt like they were an army from hell.

"This is just a part of the entire army that arrived in this world," Lydia said to Souta while looking at the enemies with a grave expression.

"It’s fine," Souta said as he was quite excited to harvest the soul of these people. He hasn’t harvested a large amount of souls for a long time ever since he came to this world.

"They are nervous..." Isabella said while looking at the city.

Right now, all the civilians left the city. Only the soldiers and volunteers were left here to buy some time for them.

The city gate was closed. Yes, it’s closed. They entirely shut down the whole city like a turtle hiding in its shell. They placed traps outside the walls to defeat some of the enemies but they doubted that their traps could even eliminate some of the invaders.

The soldiers were all quiet staying inside the city while holding their weapons. Comparing the soldiers of the enemy and the soldiers of the Riverpool City, Souta could see that the enemy really had an advantage. Simply by looking at their equipment one could see that the enemy already has the upper hands.

Souta glanced at the city lord and said, "We’re going to attack now. Just prepare yourself for the worse."

"Thank you..." Dino didn’t have anything to say except for thanking him. He was really glad and grateful for Souta that he help the city. He wouldn’t forget this in his entire life.

Souta then glanced at Lydia and asked, "Are you going to fight, too?"

"Nope, I won’t show myself this time. It’s not the time for them to know that I’m in this world." Lydia shook her head. She then added, "I’m a wanted person so if they knew that I’m here, the forces that appeared in this world will increase."

"Okay, it means more enemies," Souta said as a smile appeared on his face as he grabbed Lydia’s armor and jumped in the air.

’More enemies means more souls. A harvest of souls without worrying about god-level finding about it.’

He pulled his hand and threw Lydia near the army of the Great Astley Empire.

"W-Wait! W-WHAT ARE YOU DOING?!" Lydia shouted as she flew towards the army. She didn’t know what Souta was thinking throwing her at the enemies.

Bang!

She crashed on the ground near the enemies causing the smoke and dust to shot up in the air.

Thud!

Souta landed on the ground as he looked at the enemies with a wide grin on his face. He slowly pulled out the vajra sword and coated it with his mana.

The captain of the army narrowed his brows as he saw two figures. One crashed on the ground and was covered in smoke while the other one was looking at them with a wide grin.

"Is this person had a death wish? Confronting us alone with our numbers. Really, people from this world are ignorant about how things work."

The captain mumbled to himself. He then glanced at his subordinates and said, "Quickly kill that man and invade the city."

The soldiers of the Great Astley Empire rushed towards the Lydia and Souta’s direction. Their battle cry sounded in the whole field.

"Let’s kill them all!!"

"Let’s plunder everything!!"

...

"Are they going to be fine?"

Isabella looked at Lydia and Souta with a worried face.

She knew that Souta was strong and she saw how he defeated the Master-class Knights of the Gyunar Republic. But fighting this many enemies at the same time will be hard.

Dino and his right-hand men got on the walls. They were watching the fight to know what’s going to happen. Their role was to defeat the enemies that Souta missed.

"The fight is going to start."

One of his subordinates said in a gloomy voice.

"I hope that we survive to see tomorrow."

Dino mumbled to himself.

...

"Now for the first attack..."

Souta said as he stepped forward and the ground turned black. His mana seeped out of his body slowly creating a black mist.

[Shadow Bind]!

Hundreds of tentacles rose from the ground surprising the enemies. No one of them has reached the Master-class Knight Level or B-rank so they wouldn’t be able to easily handle his [Shadow Bind] spell.

"W-What’s that?!"

The captain of the army was confused when he saw rows of black tentacles blocked his army.

The tentacles stretched out towards his army with astonishing speed.

The black tentacles strangled the enemies in the front and tried to crash their bodies. It was fast but the numbers of the black tentacles weren’t enough to stop ten thousand people at the same time.

"It’s not enough. Then, how about this..."

Souta muttered and he activated the [Night Overlord’s Aura] and [Shadow Cloak] to increase the spell power of his dark attribute spell.

The increase in dark attribute spell power easily crushed the bones of the people on the black tentacles. The black tentacles quickly went to the nearest people as its target.

"Argh!!"

"Ugh!"

"Shit! Help!"

"What’s this?!!"

The screams of the enemies echoed in the field as the black tentacles crushed them one by one.

"I think I’ve killed about two hundred people. There are still nine thousand eight hundred people left."

Souta mumbled as the army continued to advance without caring about the casualties that they’ve suffered.

Behind him were the traps that the soldiers of the Riverpool City made and in front of him were thousands of enemies that were trying to kill him.

The army was only a hundred meters away from him. They were going to arrive at any moment so he should prepare himself.

Ten black balls appeared and floated around Souta’s back.

[Gravitational Ball]!

"I guess I will turn serious this time."

The smile on his face grew wider and black mist spread out and covered everything within 1,500 meters in diameter with him as the center.

The black mist swallowed the people that were advancing towards Souta. They were shocked to find themselves inside the black mist. It lowered their senses, speed, and power while it increases the user’s ability.

What a great skill the [Dark Cloud Hunting] is...

The range of this spell was many times larger than it was in the Great World Imperium. It was because the mana density in the air was lower so the spell could freely move without being bothered by the natural energy in the atmosphere.

Inside the black mist, Souta was the hunter and all the enemies were his preys.

Dark energy covered the vajra sword as he activated several skills to boost his abilities.

[Triple Muscle Strengthening]!

[Cat’s Speed]!

[Agility Boost]!

[Strength Boost]!

"Now then, let’s go!"

Souta said as he disappeared from his position and arrived in front of the army. Red energy seeped out of his sword and it mixed with the dark energy. He then swung it towards the army.

Swoosh!

A large crescent energy shot from his sword. The size was enormous as it has a length of fifty meters. The red and dark energy blade cut everything in front of Souta into two.

In just a few seconds the ground was turned into blood-red color. The blood of the enemies created a crimson color pool.

"What the hell is happening?!"

The captain of the army couldn’t believe it. The black mist was blocking his vision but he could hear the loud scream of his subordinates.

Their screams rang inside the head of all people. Slowly, fear seeped inside their hearts. How could they fight an enemy that they couldn’t see and possessed so much power?

"Damn! I was close to conquering that city yet that man appeared out of nowhere! Just what sorcery did he use to create this large black mist!"

He cursed as he gritted his teeth in anger.

"If that’s the case then I will take him personally..."

He tightly gripped the sword in his hand and gathered his mana around his body. But then, he heard a voice beside his ear.

"Oh? So you’re going to fight me... Is this the real strength of your army?"

The captain widened his eyes as he quickly turned around while slashing his sword. But the ones that he slashed were his subordinates, not the enemy.

"What the hell?! Show yourself! You coward!!"

He taunted Souta to come out. He wanted to smash that man’s face but this block mist prevented him from finding the Souta.

"Thousand D-ranks and hundred C-rank aren’t going to protect. None of you reach B-rank yet you think that you could fight me."

He once again heard Souta’s voice and he quickly turned around only to find several giant energy blades flying at him.

"Just go down and let me devour your souls along with the souls of your subordinate."
