The Evolution Of A Goblin To The Peak

Chapter 496 - Fate Of Eidin Sub-World

The natural defense of an A-rank was high so the parasitic essence eater wouldnʼt be able to enter the body of an A-rank. If an A-rank used mana then that expert could expel the parasite before it could fuse in the body.

The parasite didnʼt have a power level and their basic strength was even lower than normal people. Their ability was just to boost their hostʼs strength.

Black and red flesh struck Amandaʼs face after she lowered her defenses.

Amanda groaned in pain as the parasite started to fuse in her body. It went into every part of her body and consumed a large amount of her stamina. If she was below B-rank then she wouldʼve died.

After a while, the parasite has completely fused in her body.

Souta removed his hand on her cheeks and he opened his arms widely.

”Welcome to our group, Amanda Brune!” He smiled and added, ”Donʼt worry about your problem. Itʼs not yours alone. Everyone in this group will help you solve your problem so donʼt hesitate to ask for everyoneʼs help.”

”I...”

Amanda felt the changes in her body. The strength that she has had been boosted by several times but thereʼs a certain unfamiliar sensation.

Well, she just received her parasite so she wasnʼt used to it. She will be uncomfortable for a few days until she got used to the parasite.

”Alice will help you arrange your task and she will introduce the others to you. Also, Iʼm Souta Ieshi, the leader of this group and I formally welcome you in this group.” Souta said with a smile. He saw that Amanda didnʼt know what to say as she was still confused.

He could understand it so better leave her for now to digest all the information.

With that in his mind, he turned to Alice and said, ”Iʼll leave her to you.”

”Okay...” Alice nodded.

After Amanda and Alice left the coffee shop, Souta sat down on his chair and looked at the system.

*Ding!*

[Youʼve triggered a Chain Quest!]

[Amanda]: Amanda is the sole survivor of this planetʼs witch race. On this planet, sheʼs the only witch alive as all of the other witches were massacred decades ago.

[Clues] Quest 1: Ask Amanda about the massacre that happened in her clan.

Reward: 10,000 exp

The reward of this quest wasnʼt that but the quest was simple too. He could easily ask Amanda about this so that he could gather more information about why the witch race was massacred on this planet.

Souta rested his chin on his palm and looked at the window.

The witches on this planet were on the verge of extinction. Itʼs not easy to massacre a whole race especially if that race possessed unique ability like a witch.

Well, a quest like this was open for him as he needed more skill points and free attribute points to buy back the legacy that was stored in the system store.

He would conquer this continent and gather talents to produce an army with parasitic essence eater. He already had a plan to use half of the parasites that were hiding in his body.

Those people with parasites couldnʼt betray him because he has the queen. Their lives will be in his hands the moment he transplanted the parasites.

After that, he will go to the central continent. Since this world was connected to the Council of High-World, he could find a teleportation spell in the central continent that was connected to Imperium.

But first completing this new chain quest was his goal.

He had an idea about what happened to the witches on this planet. Thereʼs no way that the people who could massacre an entire clan of witches werenʼt in the central continent. In his opinion, only people from that place had the power to exterminate witches.

The people in this southern continent didnʼt have that power at all. S-rank expert was the most powerful here so it wouldnʼt be enough. Well, thereʼs a possibility that some of the organizations here contacted people from the central continent to annihilate the witches.

About their reason... It was still a mystery even for him.

Maybe some sort of personal grudge.

He closed his eyes and decided to leave this place to Alice. He will go straight to the central continent while the rest was preparing here in the southern continent.

Council of High-World...

While thinking about this organization, he couldnʼt help but narrow his brows. In the game, before Beelzebub ultimately destroyed them, he clashed with them a few times.

The reason why they clashed was because of [Solid Hunter State Boots] and [Ying and Yang Bracelet]. A dark grade and universal grade artifact respectively.

He didnʼt have a powerful country like Mechanic Country behind him at this moment. Also, he wasnʼt Athenaʼs Hero so he couldnʼt use their forces to prevent the Council of Hero from retaliating.

Well, he guessed that he will try to become Athenaʼs Hero once again after he settled everything so that he could have a good backer behind him.

”Itʼs good...”

Souta smiled as he opened his eyes. He stood up and exited his room.

Time had passed quickly and the influence of their group which they called Astros penetrated deep in the southern continent.

Franklinʼs Noxious Group successfully influenced the neighboring human and demi countries. This organization becomes one of the most powerful assassin organizations in the entire southern continent.

Their appearance alarmed countless organizations across the whole land but Franklin didnʼt care about them. In fact, he would personally eliminate those people that wanted to make a move against them.

The forces of the Noxious Assassin Group became huge and the top organizations couldnʼt tolerate them anymore. They didnʼt want to see any organization grow to their level. It wouldnʼt only break the balance in their forces.

The five countries started to launch an investigation. They wanted to meet the so-called leader of Noxious.

About the development of the Clautus Group, Alice was the one who handled it instead of Torkez. This group became a huge organization that could influence five big cities in Numan Country. If itʼs not for Noxious Assassin Group gathering the attention of top-tier people, the Clautus Group would face some pressure.

All this time, Amanda had been practicing her control over parasite in the Guardian Fortress. Most of the people knew that she was dead, they didnʼt even know that she became one of the members of a group that was plotting against this entire southern continent.

Just a little bit more and they would be able to initiate their plan...

...

On the Eidin World, Isabellaʼs homeworld...

After a huge earthquake a month ago, most of the people here have recovered and they started to renovate the fallen structures.

It was peaceful in this world and every country was trying to recover from the damage that they took from Great Astley Empire. Ever since they learned about the existence of other worlds, most of the countries formed an alliance in case something like the Great Astley Empire attack them once again.

A new era has risen on this small planet.

But then something terrifying once again occurred.

The sky darkened and a vast energy enclosed the whole planet like it was trying to devour everything. It was much more terrifying than the last incident.

Ordinary people below C-rank directly fainted and only a handful of people on the whole planet could barely endure the pressure in the atmosphere. They didnʼt have an idea whatʼs happening but they were sure that this was the end.

Their instinct wasnʼt telling them to run away. Instead, it was telling them to give up and accept their fate. They felt like they had to prostrate and submit to the being that will appear before them.

A God which was way above their league was going to appear.

Ohm!!

A vortex of energy formed above the Buckshawn State like a whirlpool. It was distorting the entire space and the whole ground was trembling.

Crack!

The space above the Buckshawn State cracked and then a hand covered in black aura shattered the entire space.

Boom!!

A man wearing a black furry cloak and a white shirt underneath it emerged from the shattered space. His short black hair was fluttering as he looked down at the world with cold eyes.

He raised his hand and combed his hair. There was a fierce lion tattoo on the back of his palm.

This man was one of the Zodiacs symbolizing Leo.

”I could feel the essence of the last zodiac in this planet but the root has disappeared. It felt like it was sealed once again.”

Leo muttered as he slowly descended on the ground. The moment that he stepped on the ground everything around him trembled. It was natural for him as he visited sub-worlds in the past and this always happened.

He knew that every living creature here have fainted because of his aura and this world will fall too. A sub-world with a low mana density like this one couldnʼt handle the natural pressure of a powerful god like him.

”Oh, it seems that the little goblin has been here before...”

A faint smile formed on his face as he turned his head on the destroyed living labyrinth.

”This is interesting....”
