The Evolution Of A Goblin To The Peak

Chapter 120 - Itʼs because he is Souta Ieshi

Souta used [Light Heal] spell on Yukoʼs wound.

While he was cleaning Yukoʼs wounds, Souta heard footsteps coming from behind. He didnʼt need to turn around to know who is it.

Souta opened his mouth and asked, ”What is it?”

”The one you beat is the son of an influential man in other city,” Lumilia said. ”The news already spread out and everyone knew that a man with a Red Fur Bear was the one who did it.”

”I donʼt care about whoʼs that man. Even if heʼs a king, I still beat the shit out of them. All of them are the same to me.” Souta replied to her.

”Theyʼll come back you know,” Lumilia said to him.

”Tell them Iʼm looking forward to it. Yeah, I canʼt wait for it.” Souta grinned as there was a chance that it could trigger a quest. Heʼs truly looking forward to them coming back to him.

”That man is my fiance...” Lumilia revealed some information to him.

”I see...” Souta replied without turning around to look at her. On the surface, he looks calm but deep inside Souta was shocked by what he heard.

That man was her fiance? Too much coincidence was happening recently.

Lumilia just looked at Soutaʼs back. She couldnʼt guess what was on his mind.

Suddenly, a knight approach them and said, ”Young miss, the lord wanted you to come and meet him.”

Lumilia looked at the knight and said, ”Understood, go tell my father that I will go there.”

”Yes, young miss.” The knight bowed before her before he left to tell Lumiliaʼs father what she said.

Lumilia looked at the knight before she shifted her attention to Souta. She opened her mouth and said, ”Iʼll go now. I still have something I need to do.”

Souta turned his head and looked at her. He asked, ”Do you want me to escort you?”

”No, just continue cleaning Yukoʼs wound. Iʼll just ask Brianna and the rest.” Lumilia shook her head and said to him.

”Are you sure? You know, Iʼm currently one of your guards.” Souta asked her just to be sure. Lumilia hired him, so he thought that he should do something for her.

”Hm. Iʼm sure.” Lumilia smiled before she turned around and walked away.

Souta stood up and looked at her back. The corner of his mouth curved into a grin.

This pattern... The fiance, the father, and the nobles. Souta was starting to understand whatʼs happening in this mansion. All of them were connected to each other but thereʼs still some unknown piece to complete the puzzle.

In other words, Lumilia came back here to meet her fiance. But why? This timing... Is it about the incident in the Ladros City? Have they already finished the investigation and identified the corpses of those assassins.

If thatʼs the case then Lumiliaʼs father already knew that she was the target of a certain noble from the country of Melosa.

If Lumiliaʼs father really knew about it then itʼs natural that he called Lumilia back to the mansion.

But... Why is the fiance coming here at this time? Is it a coincidence? No, at the very least Souta didnʼt think that it was a coincidence.

Then, thereʼs a possibility that the other nobles were moving as well. From the information Souta had, he knew that a lot of noble was going to visit Asvares Mansion because of some unknown reason, and that reason was Souta wanted to know.

Nevertheless, they were going to stripped Lumiliaʼs freedom out of her. Thatʼs what Souta could guess and she will not be able to go back to Ladro Institute.

ʼIf I could trigger a quest then I will surely...ʼ Souta thought and another idea comes into his mind. From Lumiliaʼs action before, Souta guessed that she doesnʼt want to get married to that noble. If she loves him then she would be concerned about his well being.

”Okay, I will talk to her later,” Souta said with a smile. ”Hahaha, there will be a lot of drama in this quest of mine. Well, that doesnʼt matter as I will get skill points.”

...

Lumilia was wearing a blue dress while walking in a huge hall inside the mansion. In front of her was Jusmin who was guiding her and behind her was Brianna and Jane who was guarding her.

Soon, they arrived in front of a huge door. The door wasnʼt an ordinary one. It was made from rare materials and the design was carved by famous sculptors. A mere tier 1 spell wouldnʼt leave a scratch to this door.

Jusmin stepped forward and gently knocked on the side of the door.

”My lord, young miss has arrived,” Jusmin said in a polite tone through the door.

No one said anything. Everything was silent at this time.

After a few moments, a metallic sound echoed in the door as it slowly opened.

Lumilia turned her head and looked at Brianna and Jane. She said, ”Wait for me, Iʼll talk to my father.”

”Understood.” Brianna and Jane said at the same time.

Jusmin took a glance at Lumilia with a worried expression. Lumilia smiled at her in response before Lumilia went inside the room.

Inside the room, Lumilia saw two people sitting in the chair from the opposite side of the table.

The man on the left side was a middle-aged man with long blue hair and blue eyes. He was Lumiliaʼs father, Ursus Von Asvares.

While the man on the right side was a chubby middle-aged man with short blonde hair and yellow color eyes. He was exuding a fearful aura around him. He was none other than the head of the Vidrato Family, one of the influential families in the neighboring city of Gripin.

The two men turned their heads when Lumilia entered the room. The two of them observed her for a while before Ursus, Lumiliaʼs father, opened his mouth and said, ”This is Gregory Vidrato, the head of the Vidrato Family. Also, heʼs the father of your fiance, Lumilia.”

”Good day, father and lord Vidrato.” Lumilia greeted them in a polite tone.

”Nn.” Gregory nodded his head while looking at Lumilia.

”Currently, your fiance couldnʼt come here because of some accident,” Ursus said.

”Yeah, some pretentious adventurer dared to harm the next heir of the Vidrato family,” Gregory said in annoyance as he tapped his finger on top of the table. ”Really, those adventurers are like that of the barbarian race. All of them are bold enough not knowing who they are offending.”

Lumilia just looked at them and didnʼt say anything. She knew the one who did that to the heir of Vidrato family.

Just then...

Ursus looked at Lumilia and said, ”Lumilia, Iʼve heard that one of the adventurers that you hired fit the description of the man who assaulted your fiance.”

Lumilia subconsciously gulped when she heard her father mention it.

”Really?!” Gregory stood up when heard it. He looked at Lumilia as if he was eager to know if it was true or not.

Lumilia tried to think of a way to hide the truth but then she understood that she couldnʼt hide it anymore. The knights were patrolling around the mansion from time to time and itʼs natural that they will saw Souta and the Gale Group.

ʼIf he pushed me to the corner, then I have no choice but to reveal it.ʼ

She took a deep breath and nodded her head.

”Thatʼs right. Heʼs a tamer of the Red Fur Bear but I know that the one who started it was Ostar.” Lumilia said to them.

Ostar was the name of Lumiliaʼs fiance, the heir of the Vidrato family.

”Bring him to me immediately, Iʼve got to teach that pretentious adventurer some lesson!” Gregoryʼs aura exploded when he heard Lumilia confirmed it. His aura shook the entire room.

Lumilia felt being pressured just by standing in front of the lord of Vidrato family. Although Gregory looked like a fat merchant he was still a powerful man that was currently leading the whole Vidrato family.

”You canʼt...” Lumilia said while gritting her teeth.

”Why?!” Gregory shouted and it shook the whole room once again. The mana that he was releasing was reaching its limit.

”Calm down, thatʼs my daughter youʼre talking to.” Ursus looked at Gregory and said. He slightly released his own mana to counter the mana Gregory was releasing.

Gregory looked at Ursus before he sat down. He said, ”Iʼm sorry for the sudden outburst. Itʼs just that man harm my son.”

”Yeah, I understand it.” Ursus nodded his head in understanding. He then looked at his daughter and asked, ”So can you tell us the reason why you said that words?”

Lumilia took a deep breath while she closed her eyes. After a few moments, she opened her eyes and look at them with a serious expression.

Lumilia slowly opened her mouth and said, ”Itʼs because he is Souta Ieshi from Mage Class 1-B.”
