The Evolution Of A Goblin To The Peak

Souta's figure flashed and he instantly appeared on the ground, avoiding the vicious cold winds that hurled at him.

He glanced at the person that attack him with a puzzled look.

Isn't this man one of the City Lords?

Why attack him?

"You're better than I imagined. You actually avoided my surprise attack. You have top-notch reflexes." A short man with sharp eyes and fur on his arms said with bloodlust flowing from his eyes.

"Oh, that?" Souta scratched his cheeks feeling the bloodlust coming from this guy.

If he wasn't wrong, this guy was called Voser.

"Tell what other things the Governor told you after I left!" Voser said as he stood in his position while letting out the intense energy from his body.

"Nothing much. It's pretty much the same as what you heard. The Dragon Council is trying to help each other in strengthening the Mine Valley to resist the people outside the land." Souta opened his arms widely.

"No way that's true! Then, why did you agree with his condition?! There is no benefit at all!" Voser didn't believe Souta's words.

"It's because it is quite interesting don't you think?" Souta grinned. "Governor Ray didn't force any of you. You can decline or join on your will. Those who wanted to protect the Mine Valley have bonded together. If he proposed benefits quickly, then I'm sure that some of the City Lords will join. But that's no good. Governor Ray only wanted people that have the same goal as him."

"And that goal is to protect the Mine Valley?" Voser's frown grew deeper.

"That's right." Souta clapped.

"You! That's ridiculous!" Voser roared as he launched himself forward.

In just an instant, he arrived in front of Souta and threw a punch in his stomach.

Bang!

Souta's body bent backward as he flew away like a cannonball. His opponent chased after him and kicked him below.

The cold energy seeped out as if it was trying to turn his entire body into ice.

"You know why he didn't force you? I'm sure you understand right? It is hard to work together with people that have different goals. Especially, if he didn't know your personality or attitude. He would be wary all the time."

Souta said before he received a punch in the chest. His figure turned into a stream of light and crashed on the ground causing the earth to shake.

"Profits? It's already there from the beginning. If the Dragon Council took over the entire Mine Valley, all of its resources will be divided by us. We would also be able to exchange supplies such as grains, ores, and other little things easily since we are allies. As for you, what if the outsider offers you a larger profit? Then, you would betray us."

Beams of blueish energy hurled down causing a series of explosions. All the things within a radius of two hundred meters were frozen.

But Souta didn't stop talking at all.

"The contract is too loose. Governor Ray only used it as assurance but people from Dragon Council could still indirectly harm the Mine Valley since there's a loophole. But I don't understand why he wanted cooperation. If it is me, I'm going to force every single one of you to do my bidding. I will utterly lock you down without anyone of you noticing it."

At this time, Souta received hundreds of attacks from Voser. He was lying in the middle of a ten-meter-deep crater with his hand inside his pockets.

Suddenly, he stopped and turned his head to the side. It was clear that he didn't put Voser in his eyes.

"Oh? It seems that I need to finish this too."

With his [Crimson Perception] and [Galaxy Eyes], he instantly knew what was happening in the other part of the battlefield.

The enemy's forces were getting eliminated one by one. The soldiers of Bland City had finished evacuating the citizens and the elite soldiers had arrived. They swiftly killed the attackers. Although the enemy's side had Solidifying Realm experts, the elite soldiers killed them with little effort.

Even at the same level, the elite soldiers had great timing, skills, reflexes, equipment, and experience. All of these were going to decide the battle if both experts were on the same level.

That's what he wanted to see. The capabilities of the Dragon Council. Even though it was just Governor Ray's elite soldiers, it was worth the wait. His perception could see a person's power level but he couldn't see through their timing, skills, reflexes, and experience just by looking at them.

He could feel it but it was different than seeing it. It was more accurate if he judged them in a battle.

"Hu~ Your massage felt good. I didn't expect that you had great massage skills. I almost wanted to hire you."

Souta stood up and patted his clothes.

"You! What are you?! How?!" Voser looked at him in horror. He did everything he could but he didn't even injure this person.

He subconsciously stepped back. Right now, the atmosphere around Souta was different than before. It's giving him an eerie vibe.

"If I want it. I could finish this faster but I wanted to see Governor Ray if he is worth my cooperation. Now, I'm sure that he could help me." Souta fixed his clothes as he stared at Voser.

"I did everything!! Why aren't you down?" Voser was scared when he saw the smile on Souta's face.

"Oh, that?" Souta raised his eyebrows and looked at his right hand. "Here, you scratch me in this place. "

He covered it with his left hand. When he removed his left hand, the scratch on his right hand was gone.

"Now, it's gone."

Voser started sweating as he felt a chin run down on his spine. The more looked at Souta, the more he felt terrified. He couldn't describe it but this guy was dangerous.

"Oh, your senses are quite good. Trust it. Sometimes your senses will save you from dangers." Souta pointed his finger at Voser. "But not this time."

Voser wanted to turn around but his body didn't move. He felt that once he turned his back on this guy, he would instantly die.

"Argh!!"

He could only watch as webs came out of Souta's finger and enveloped his body. He tried to resist with all of his strength but he felt the gravity around him tighten and black tentacles rose beneath his feet. Then, black mist seeped out as the webs tried to envelop him.

"Fuck!! You fucking!!"

He roared as the gravity tightened once again. It was as if it was trying to crush his entire body into meat paste. Before his vision turned black, he heard Souta's voice once more.

"I will not kill you. You still have some uses. Tell me the reason why you attack this place."

Souta patted his hands. He paused and looked to the side, only to find three people looking at him in horror.

"Oh, there's more! Too bad, I got one here so I don't need you guys."

He grinned and swung his hand. Hundreds of web strings flew out from his fingers. It crossed the distance in the blink of an eye before it tore the three people into countless tiny pieces.

BAM!!

Blood and meat scattered across the land, and it quickly emitted a thick nasty stench.

He didn't need a Solidifying Realm with him. He had a One Shackle Realm here so this guy knows something more than the other fodder.

"My work here is done."

Souta muttered as he turned his head in the direction where the elite soldiers were fighting.

"How is it? Where is Franklin?" He asked.

Amanda appeared as she glanced at the dead bodies before she answered, "Franklin is still fighting out there. He's fighting a City Lord and from my guess, that one knew something about this event."

"What about the rest of the City Lords?"

"I don't have any idea about their current situation. It feels like they just vanished in this city. I tried to find them but there was no use." Amanda replied.

"They are gone?!" Souta was flabbergasted.

It seems that they weren't on the same side as this Voser.

Some of the City Lords vanished and some of them attacked this city.

"Then, this guy..." He pointed at Voser who was covered in webs.

"Yes, he probably knew where those City Lords went. But not everyone vanished, some of them are still in this city leisurely observing the situation." Amanda said.

"Hah..." Souta pinched the bridge of his nose. Three sides. The City Lords who were watching probably had no idea about the real situation behind this incident.

"Bring this guy. We'll interrogate him later." Souta pointed at Voser.

"I understand." Amanda nodded.

Souta looked in the direction where he felt the familiar mana fluctuations. He slowly opened his mouth and said, "Franklin, finish this and bring him here."

His voice traveled through the air and it caused Franklin to stop for a moment.

Hmm?

Franklin looked up before he stared at Amune. "I wanted to enjoy this fight longer before I kill you but it seems that my boss wanted you alive."

"Boss? Who are you?!" Amune narrowed his eyes. This guy was already strong and to think that there was a man backing this ridiculous guy.

He was curious and wary at the same time.

"Ehe~ you will know it once I've captured you." Franklin flashed an evil smile before he dashed forward.
