The Evolution Of A Goblin To The Peak

Chapter 143 - Chain Quest: Souta vs. Gregory 5

Souta pointed his finger at Gregory and a large collection of red energy began to gather at the tip of his finger. It continued to grow, collecting more and more energy from Souta body each passing second.

The colossal amount of energy engulfed the air around Souta and began to whip around uncontrollably, the force behind it rivaled that of Gregoryʼs tier 3 spell.

The [Red Striking Shot] spell was a powerful inner spell of Gregory. He always used this to sure kill a monster with a monster orb in the past. Itʼs a fire attribute spell that has a temperature that was close to a planetʼs core.

The debris of rocks around Gregory began to melt and the air was producing a powerful heatwave that could turn ordinary people into dust in just a second. Even if the rocks were strengthened by the mana in the air, it nonetheless melts because of how close it was to Gregory.

”Just go down!!” Gregory shouted and he launched a powerful flame beam towards Souta.

Swoosh!!

Souta stood on the ground as he prepared himself. He never took his eyes off the flame beam that was heading at his direction.

The massive gathering of best feram on the tip of his finger reached its critical point. A moment later, it shot towards Gregoryʼs spell without any delay. The blast was so powerful that the rocks disintegrated in its path and the wind whipped outwards at high speed.

Souta poured all of the best feram in his body and shot the condense energy. This attack was called [Bestrou], a unique powerful attack of the monsters that brought terror to humans and demis.

BOOM!!!

The two beams collided and it resulted in a powerful explosion that shook the entire city. The ground and the air produced ripples and it distorted everything that made contact with it.

...

ʼMaster, you in danger!ʼ

Randolf heard a voice inside his head. He replied by saying ”I know” before he took a distance away with Yujin.

He and Yujin stood side by side and created a barrier around them. Randolf created a powerful barrier but he knew that it still wasnʼt enough to protect them from the shockwaves.

”Alophy...” Yujin muttered in a low voice and a palm-size girl materialized on his shoulder.

The girl was wearing a simple knee-length green dress. She has shoulder-length blonde hair and around her were sparks of white lights. She was Alophy, the spirit of Yujin.

ʼThere it is... The spirit...ʼ Randolf glanced at the spirit on Yujinʼs shoulder with an amused expression.

”Alophy, letʼs do this...” Yujin said and he raised both of his hands.

”Yes, Yujin!” Alophy replied to him and her powers spiked up.

[Spirit Aerial Three Layered Barrier]!

They created a powerful three-layered wind barrier to protect them from any harm. A three-layered barrier formed around Yujin and Randolf.

”Fuse...” Yujin said and the barrier that he erected fused to the barrier that Randolf created making it more powerful.

”Still...” Randolf then looked at Souta. ”I didnʼt think that Souta could use [Bestrou] even though itʼs only a borrowed power from the potion.”

...

Ursus and Bargan who was watching the fight from the distance were startled when they saw this scene.

Bargan stood up and he patted his clothes. He opened his mouth and said, ”These two are going to destroy the city. They didnʼt care about their surrounding at all, they just wanted to defeat the opponent in front of them.”

”The city lord will be forced to make a move if this continued.” Ursus nodded and said.

”I will minimize the aftershock of their attacks. I need to clean the mess that my students made.” Bargan said before he vanished into thin air.

”One of the most powerful people of the Hebrei Kingdom...” Ursus muttered as he turned his head and looked at the huge explosion. ”Still... How did that Souta use [Bestrou]? Even though he has the best feram in his body, it still hard to use it. Thereʼs no record of that in the past era.”

...

The whole city turned bright and the darkness disappeared. Even the dark sky lit up because of the explosion.

Alice and the rest stopped when the ground shook heavily. It was followed by a very loud booming sound. Then, the whole area turned bright as if a sun shone on the sky.

Even though itʼs night, the whole city was as bright as noon.

Boom!!

Alice and the rest turned their head and saw the unbelievable scene in front of them.

”How could Souta fought on that scale?!” Joshua muttered in disbelief. The scale of the battle was several times higher than theirs.

”Souta...” Lumilia whispered Soutaʼs name with a concerned look on her face.

She wasnʼt stunned at the scale of battles because she witnessed the power of the commandments. She saw how a single spell destroyed the Desolate Woods and the villages near it. Even that unknown power that took the life force of every living creature in the Desolate Woods was terrifying.

Thereʼs a saying that if a person saw the power of the Bringer of Calamity, their point of view in power scale will greatly change. They would understand that there were people that reached the level where they could obliterate a country on their own.

Alice glanced at Lumilia before she turned her head at the huge explosion.

”I see...”

...

Bargan appeared close to the explosion. He looked at the bright explosion and he squinted his eyes.

The heat waves were of high temperature and the ground continued to tremble nonstop. Everything was being obliterated by the powerful explosion.

”Really, to think that Souta would manage to match a noble head using the power he couldnʼt properly control...” Bargan smiled wryly before he opened his arms widely.

”Well, letʼs stop this.”

He circulated his magical power inside his body.

Swoosh!!

He made a grabbing motion and the explosion was blocked by something. It didnʼt pass through Bargan as it was contained by his energy.

It didnʼt damage anything outside of the battlefield.

”This level of heat is nothing to me. Iʼm not called Flame Master for nothing.” Bargan muttered as he easily contained this level of explosion.

Back in the war against the Melosa Country, he was the man who burned down everything in the outskirts of the Desolate Woods. He literally brought down a small sun at city size and obliterated most of the Melosa Army.

His power was close to God.

”Hmm...?” Bargan then noticed something. He turned his head and smiled. ”I see... How loyal...” He said then he aimed his hand at it.

...

After a few moments, the explosion stopped and the whole area was filled with smoke and dust.

The entire ground was wiped out as it became a desolate place. Thereʼs no building left after the explosion as all the buildings here were obliterated. Even the rocks and concrete roads turned into a piled of ash.

Cough! Cough!

”Are you okay, Yujin?” Randolf coughed and asked. He couldnʼt clearly see because of the thick smoke and dust in the surrounding.

”Somehow...” Yujin replied and he created a wind around him to blow the smoke and dust.

”Iʼm sorry, Yujin.” Alophy flew around and apologized to him.

The barrier that they erected before was destroyed. It was shattered by the powerful explosion. The explosion was stronger than they imagined. It was because Bargan contained all of the explosion in this place.

Randolf was forced to asked his guard to assist him. His guard casted a secret barrier around them that lessen the force of the impact when their barrier shattered. They still havenʼt escaped unscathed from the impact. They received a few bruises on their bodies.

ʼThanks, you save me there.ʼ Randolf said in his head.

ʼItʼs nothing, master.ʼ A voice replied to him in his head.

”Who won?” Randolf looked up and asked.

Yujin heard Randolfʼs words so he looked up to see who won the battle. He was also curious about who won the battle.

They waited for a few moments before the wind dispersed the smoke and dust.

The saw Souta who was standing alone on the battlefield. His figure was covered in wounds and both of his arms were burned. He was breathing heavily and thereʼs no bloodstain on his body. He wasnʼt even sweating.

His sweat and the blood on his body evaporated because of the high temperature. Itʼs also thanks to the high temperature that all of his injuries closed.

”Huff... Huff... Huff...” Souta was gasping and he slowly placed the Vajra sword on its sheath. He reached his limit and he depleted his stamina.

The best feram inside his body was gone. Thereʼs nothing left inside him even mana. He drained all the energy he has in this fight.

”I won... Until I leave this city, I will not go down.” Souta muttered as gritted his teeth. He gulped and he felt thirsty. His throat was dry.

ʼYou donʼt have to worry about your body. If you leave it to me, Iʼll follow your classmates.ʼ A feminine voice sounded inside his mind.
