The Evolution Of A Goblin To The Peak

Chapter 191 - Hunting

Everyone from Mage class 1-B decided to follow Lumiliaʼs plan after they heard Randolfʼs words. It opened their eyes and they realized that they were like children in front of Souta, Bryan, and the rest of the people who had a life and death battle.

Well, Souta could understand them. When he just arrived here in this world, Souta afraid at that time. He was afraid to fight and was afraid of this terrifying world. But Souta didnʼt want to die, thatʼs why he fought and tried everything that heʼs got in every quest that he got. Heʼs always trying his best.

Thatʼs really simple. If his classmates didnʼt want to die, then they have to fight for it. They have to earn it in their own power.

Randolf just smiled as he took a glance at Souta and Lumilia. He never thought that Souta would take Lumilia under his wings after that battle in the Gripin city. Souta became her caretaker, thatʼs what Randolf feel about them.

But never did he except that Lumilia would show this much improvement. What he didnʼt know that Lumilia was doing everything sheʼs got to get her fatherʼs approval. She went to Desolate Woods with her butler and maid to get the Mystical Light Cherry.

She personally experienced the calamity that happened in that place. The place that became a forbidden place after that calamity, the Desolate Woods. The True Godʼs Holy Kingdom forbids any people from visiting that place.

...

They went traveled through that wilderness and found a village after three hours of walking. The village was quite large as it has a population of five thousand people.

They didnʼt immediately go to the village. They did a scout first and found that some class beat them to it. The group decided to leave since they donʼt have any plan to compete with each other.

Randolf looked back at the village and saw that the other classes took the same tactics like them. They were also moving in class not team. The other class was talking to the village chief.

He then looked at Lumilia and asked, ”Class rep, why donʼt we stop and wait for them to leave?”

”Itʼs better if we leave cause I donʼt want to get involved with other classes in this outdoor training. Weʼll train ourselves and for people who want to increase their points they could just do the task that the institute gives.” Lumilia shook her head and said.

”I see... You really wanted to train and not to show off like other students.” Randolf said as he smirked and looked at the village one more time.

”But... The institute didnʼt give us any task at all. I wanted to do it soon.” Bryan said with a disappointed expression.

Everyone was surprised when they heard his words. Not that Bryan mentioned it, they donʼt have any idea about the task. Teacher Alex didnʼt tell them about it.

Lumilia sighed and pointed at the device on her wrist. ”Have you forgotten about this thing? I think the institute will give us the task and challenges through this device.”

This device was given to them by the institute for free. They could check their points and initiated a ranking battle with other students. They could also check the top rankers in this device.

”Right, teacher Alex said that the institute will give a challenge every day throughout the whole outdoor training,” Randolf said. ”So letʼs wait before doing some big move.”

”We should find a place to stay for tonight. If the institute gave the challenge later at night then we would suffer.” Lumilia said to them.

”Well, we should find another village and hunt monsters as well,” Souta said and he looked at the rest of the classmates, ”Iʼm going to hunt monsters for my team, not for all of you. Weʼre moving as a class but that doesnʼt mean that we would provide you everything. Weʼll only give you information and thatʼs all, you can do the labor work on your own.”

...

Lumilia memorized some part of the map that teacher Alex showed. She couldnʼt memorize all of it so she only memorized a part that she decided as their base.

After walking for another hour, they arrived on the outskirts of the Night Light Forest. They decided to hunt monsters first before they went to the nearest village.

She said to her classmates that they will meet at this place after they hunted monsters. This was going to become the money to pay for the inn.

Lumilia, Souta, Lynn, Alice, and Yujin strode inside the Night Light Forest cautiously.

”We shouldnʼt go deep in this forest. Itʼs too dangerous.” Souta said to his group. Everyone knew it and he explained the danger of it to his classmates before departing.

Night Light Forest was a huge forest between the Hebrei Kingdom and Mali country. The monsters that inhabited this place were powerful and dangerous. The third evolution and fourth evolution monsters can be found here in this place. In the Adventurers Guild records, there were five fourth evolution monsters in sight. Two black dotted spiders and three flood poisonous serpents.

ʼThis place is too dangerous for students. Their power level is too low to fight the high-level monsters here.ʼ Alice thought as she looked around but then she recalled that teacher Alex was observing them.

She thought that not only Alex was watching them. The other staff of the institute must be here to prevent the death of the students. They will only show themselves if the student was on the brink of death. After all, they were not babysitters.

...

They walked for a few minutes and they immediately five orcs. Four of these orcs were high earth orcs, the second evolution of orcs. While the remaining one was a black orc, another second evolution of orc, but this evolution path was different from the high orcs. It was much stronger as it was a rare evolution of orcs.

Lumiliaʼs group hid in the bushes as they observed the five orcs.

Souta frowned as he saw that these orcs were organized. The black orcs were issuing orders to the other orcs.

ʼI couldnʼt understand them. After all, I only knew the Goblinʼs language among the other languages of monster.ʼ Souta thought as he heard the orcs saying something. He would learn their language in the future after his evolution.

He looked at his team and asked in a low voice, ”Letʼs hunt them.”

”T-They look strong...” Lynn said.

”Donʼt worry, with our team we could handle it,” Souta assured her. He then looked at Lumilia, Alice, and Yujin, ”You ready to go?”

”Anytime. Leave the black one to me.” Yujin said to him as he took a swift glance at the black orc.

”Iʼll handle the normal one,” Alice said to them.

”Okay, Iʼll help you with it.” Souta paused for a moment before he added, ”Lumilia, Lynn, stay here and look out to see if there are monster heading here.”

”I understand.” Lumilia and Lynn nodded at him. Lynn had high sensory ability so he could leave it to her.

...

Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!

Alice, Souta, and Yujin jumped out of the bushes and they immediately rushed towards the orcs.

Souta dashed towards one of the orcs and he imbued his mana in his fist. He then threw it towards the stomach of the orc.

Bang!

The orc flew but several tentacles like shadows burst out of the ground and grabbed the orc. The tentacles pinned down the orc on the ground.

He could pin down everything every orc here as his [Shadow Bind] skill could even hold a third evolution monster for a few seconds. But he didnʼt do it because he wanted to see Yujin and Aliceʼs strength.

Souta walked towards the orc and he stepped on its head. He then looked at Alice and Yujinʼs fight.

Swoosh!

Alice took out a pipe in her pocket and it transformed into a spear. This was her orange grade weapon.

The three orcs looked at her with an angry expression. The orcs were armed with a huge butcher knife. Two of these orcs dashed towards her and it swung the huge knives in their hands.

Swoosh!

Alice lifted her feet and kicked the two huge knives.

[Repulsion Kick]!

[Repulsion Kick]!

Her feet deflected the knives easily. She then moved her body forward as she gripped her spear tightly.

[Swift Strike]!

Her spear pierced through the arms of the two orcs. It skewered their arms as their weapons fell on the ground causing a loud metallic sound to rung out.

Then, a shadow covered her body. She looked up and saw the huge body of the orc heading towards her.

She quickly pulled out her spear and jumped away.

Bang!

The orc crashed on the ground and it resulted in a small crater on the ground.

ʼIʼm going to fight three orcs? Then, Souta is fighting one orc. I thought that he would divide these four orcs to the two of us.ʼ Alice thought while looking at the three orcs. ʼThat man scammed me...ʼ
