The Evolution Of A Goblin To The Peak

Chapter 233 - Impress me! Show me what you learned in human and demi country!

”...You donʼt know...?” Raeshka frowned while looking at him. After a while, a smile appeared on her face and she said, ”Tell me what you experience in human and demi country? I want to hear stories about them.”

Souta breathed a sigh of relief after he found that Raeshkaʼs attitude was still the same just like in the game. He knew what he should do to leave this place. He just needed to be careful of his next move. After all, he doesnʼt want to die in this place.

He slowly narrated what he experienced to Raeshka. From the part where he met Jimmy up to the time when he arrived in the Eternal Empire. Souta patiently told her what he experienced. He only left a few things such as his system from his story.

”Oh...” Raeshka listened to his story with interest in her eyes. The story about a monster living in human kingdoms was pretty interesting. Souta was the first monster that she knew who was living among humans and demis without being found out as monsters.

Well, Soutaʼs appearance was a big factor in why the humans and demis didnʼt think of him as monsters. His facial structures resembled a human more than a goblin. His appearance will not matter once he evolved into the third evolution. He wouldnʼt be able to hide his best feram forever. Powerful and sensitive humans would be able to detect it once he had best feram in his body.

It took more than two hours before Souta finished his storytelling. He even told the details of his adventure to Raeshka. He told her everything in his journey.

”Oh? So youʼre saying you are strong but I donʼt see it.” Raeshka asked while looking at Souta. She slightly tilted her head as she was confused. She couldnʼt understand why Souta said that he was strong even though she couldnʼt feel anything from him.

”Of course, for you Iʼm weak,” Souta said as he shrugged his shoulders with a helpless expression.

No matter how powerful a second evolution, it was still weak compared to a monster lord. Even if Souta was at the fourth evolution stage, he was still an insect in front of Raeshka. Thereʼs not much difference between the second evolution and the fourth evolution for her. She could easily squash all of them.

”But... Among the second evolution monster in this place, I think no one would be able to defeat me.” Souta said confidently as he glanced at her reaction.

”Oh? Youʼre that confident. If what you told me is true then you really possessed some skills. You have the body of a monster that could evolve and you also have the skills and abilities of humans and demis.” Raeshka said as a faint smile appeared on her face. She rested her chin on her hand before she added, ”Let me see how strong is a monster that is living with humans and demis. From what I could see those monsters are all weaklings.”

She was talking about the monsters that submit to tamers. No tamer got to own a monster lord in history so for her, those monsters were all weak. Everything was weak below monster lord. Even the divine tamer in the game didnʼt own any monster lord. The divine tamer only possessed several fifth evolution monsters.

Well, the nine-headed hydra that Souta had in the game was also a fifth evolution monster. It was just a fourth evolution monster at first but hydra evolved throughout their journey.

ʼWhat if I tamed a monster lord this time?ʼ A question entered Soutaʼs mind while looking at Raeshka. Maybe, he could let Yuko evolve into a monster lord but the problem was that he doesnʼt have much knowledge about tamer. At least, he had experience in evolving his pet into the fifth evolution stage in the game.

He shook his head and put those thoughts in the back of his mind. Thereʼs no point in thinking about things that he wouldnʼt be able to achieve with his current strength.

”Iʼm extremely confident in my fighting skills and experience,” Souta said to her. He was confident that he could easily defeat a normal second evolution monster but for those rare and powerful second evolution monsters, Souta wasnʼt sure if he could win without taking injuries.

Thereʼs a huge risk in fighting the monster of this place. Their body was enhanced to the limit using the resources of this place so they were far stronger than the monsters on the surface.

”I see that youʼre confident in your strength. Humans and demis are confident and arrogant. They influenced you for you to have the same kind of attitude.” Raeshka spoke slowly as she removed her eyes from Souta and glanced at the monsters behind him. ”Call all the strongest second evolution stage monster. I will create some fighting feast to liven up our boring lives.”

A fourth evolution monster bowed and nodded at her words.

Souta took a deep breath as he knew that he had to satisfy Raeshkaʼs curiosity. He looked around and said, ”Okay, Iʼll fight anyone but I donʼt think Iʼll be able to show you my true strength with my current condition.”

”Oh, right? From your story, you damaged your mana pool by taking a monster potion.” Raeshka exclaimed as she recalled his story. ”Thatʼs what you get from borrowing the power of best feram when your body shouldnʼt have that kind of power. You know that itʼs too early for a second evolution monster to have the best feram so why take it when you already know its effect?”

”Well, due to certain circ.u.mstances I was forced to take it. I told you before that I donʼt want to die. So this is just a small price for me to survive that calamity.” Souta replied to her with a serious expression.

He wasnʼt lying to her every time he told her his experience.

”Hahaha, what a funny guy we have here!!” Raeshka suddenly laughed loudly while holding her stomach. ”Donʼt lie to me. You got attached to those humans and demis. You fought to protect them not to protect yourself. From your story, I could feel that you are close to them. You can easily escape but you didnʼt. You know deep inside yourself why you fought those people.”

Souta tilted his head in confusion when he heard her words. He could indeed avoid those fights but he didnʼt do so.

He fought and took the risk because of the quest rewards. Thatʼs what he thought all along but it seems that he was growing attached to his life in Ladros city. He didnʼt understand it at first but he felt glad when he found that his classmates were fine after that fierce battle.

Souta looked down at his palm and thought, ʼDid I really fought to protect them? Protect? Iʼm not suited for this kind of thing. I still prefer to demolish the people that got in my way.ʼ

”Accept it already, a monster like you wanted to live together with humans and demis. Deep inside yourself, you must want to become a human or demi like them so that no problem will occur regarding your true identity.” Raeshka said with a faint smile on her face while looking at Soutaʼs expression.

”Nope, I just felt it was quite inconvenient living as a monster in human and demiʼs country. You know, I needed to mind my movements every time so that no one would be able to discover that Iʼm a monster.” Souta nodded as he shrugged his shoulder and opened his palm. He still rejected the thoughts that he fought for the sake of other people.

”I see that you couldnʼt accept it...” Raeshka said in a deep tone as she looked straight at his eyes. She then shook her head and said, ”Well, it doesnʼt matter as you will understand what Iʼm saying someday in the future.”

”I will understand it someday...?” Souta muttered in a low voice as he slightly turned his head and glanced at Yuko who was staying silent behind him. It seems that sheʼs following his words.

The door behind him opened and a fourth evolution monster entered the room. The monster bowed its head and said, ”My Lord, I already called all the second evolution stage monster. They are the strongest monster in this place.”

”I see... Good job.” Raeshka smiled and she stood up after she heard the report of her subject. She looked at Souta and said, ”They are here! Iʼll give you a chance to showcase yourself in front of a monster lord! Impress me! Show me what you learned in human and demi country!”

Her voice couldnʼt hide the excitement in her tone. She really wanted to see some action coming from an unknown variable like Souta.

”Letʼs go! Itʼs time to watch some interesting things after a long time!”

Raeshka then walked past Souta and left the room leaving those words.

Souta looked at her back and sighed. He then took a deep breath and muttered, ”I guess I have no choice but to demolish the monster in this place. Iʼll let them see the power of a battle mage. Iʼm counting on you, Yuko.”
