The Evolution of a Goblin to the Peak

Chapter 562: Shocked!



Chapter 562: Shocked!

Souta was called by Amanda after he finished talking to Gragas and Eilish. She said that she had something to discuss with him and Souta already guess that it was about the current situation of the Witch Clan. He knew that it would sprout some problem if he took Amanda with him considering Rowan passed his Clan Leader’s position to her before his death.

“What is it, Amanda?” Souta asked.

“I-I’m the Clan Leader of the Witch Clan so…”

Souta stopped her before she could even finish her words.

“I’m not going to change my decision. I helped you find your clan and even solve some of the problems here. So you can’t stay here as you’re going to come with me.” Souta said to her.

“No, no, no, it’s not about that.” Amanda shook her head.

“Then, what is it?” Souta raised his eyebrows.

“No, I’m just thinking if I can convince my clan to travel with me,” Amanda said.

“Wait, what? You want the entire Witch Clan to come with you?” Souta opened his eyes widely.

“Yes, I just want to ask for your consent if they could ride this ship with me.” Amanda nodded.

“Hmm… That’s pretty troublesome. I don’t know if I could let your tribesmen ride my fortress. I know it’s rude but I don’t trust any of your tribesmen.” Souta slowly explained to her. “Have you told them that you’re my subordinates? The witches wouldn’t let their Clan Leader become a subordinate of a person weaker than them? And I’m currently weaker than the two elders… They are like a ticking bomb if I let them in on my fortress.”

“No, I haven’t told anyone about it yet.”

“Then, it’s really a problem. We are going to leave this place tomorrow so be sure to tell them about it. I already gave my permission to Eilish and adding another person at shackled realm would be too much. It’s fine if you could convince them to become my subordinates but I doubt that will happen. Their pride is huge and it would be humiliating for them to become a subordinate of a monster.”

“That…”

“See… We’ve been together for more than a month now so you must guess some of the things that I like and not. If they became my subordinates then it’s basically the same as my slaves. With parasites in my people’s bodies, I can control their life and death with a flick of my finger. Have you forgotten our deal when you decided to join my group?”

“Ah,”

Amanda looked down. She had forgotten about it. She’s basically Souta’s slave and she ignored it because of how serious he is in helping her find the Witch Clan. How could she forget it? She became too occupied with the matters of her clan.

She even forgot the horrible things that she did in the past just to find some clues about her clan. She’s no different from the person that controlled the Witch Clan.

“Huff…”

She took a deep breath and close her eyes only to open them after a few seconds. She regained her posture and natural demeanor before. Remembering her past made her feel different but that doesn’t matter now.

“I’m sorry about it. I forgot my position. I shouldn’t have focused on my clan. Please forgive my insolence, I will find a way to strengthen our organization. I will convince the Witch Clan to join us.” Amanda’s tone had changed. She’s back to being the cruel leader of the organization that she formed before, the Red Witch.

“Even with parasites…”

“Yes, I will persuade them to agree to plant the parasite in their bodies. The Witch Clan will be useful to you.” Amanda said in a serious tone.

“Oh, good. Then, I’m looking forward to it.” Souta saw that she wasn’t lying at all. His [Galaxy Eyes] was telling him that there’s no lie in her words.

“Thank you for your time. I’ll go now.” Amanda said as she slightly bowed before she turned around and left.

Souta looked at her back before he shook his head. Even though Amanda was the Clan Leader of the Witch Clan, the possibility of her convincing the other witches was less than fifty percent. Especially, since her power level was too low.

Just like Eilish who didn’t want to submit to him, the two elders were the same. If he was stronger than them the chance would increase.

That doesn’t matter to him, he still has Isabella with him. Although her current power level was low, she was guaranteed to reach godhood in the future. He just needed to protect and cultivate her well.

Speaking of Isabella, she was a freak. She already became A-rank while he was away for a short amount of time. From a mere ordinary person to A-rank was just simply too fast.

“That’s my Isabella for you…”

Souta smiled as he entered the control room. He sat down on the vacant seat and glanced at the projection on the screen.

“Alice, come with me.”

He called Alice and the two of them went to another fortress. He didn’t have energy in his body so he couldn’t fly. Alice carried him to the other fortresses where monsters were situated.

The two landed on the deck and they were greeted by Doranjan and Yuko. The injured Red Dragon was also here. Doranjan and the Red Dragon fought before in the southern continent. Of course, the one who won the battle was Doranjan. In terms of battle strength, he was already at the top tier of the third evolution stage, just below Souta and slightly stronger than Yuko.

He didn’t kill the red dragon. Instead, he recommended the red dragon to join the group if he wanted to gain strength. That’s why the red dragon was submissive towards Souta.

Souta and Alice didn’t last long in the fortress. The only thing that he did was plant parasitic essence eater towards the monsters that reach B-rank in terms of strength. Even if their energy level was low as long as their body was strong then it would be enough to handle the parasite. That’s the same for Yenxa, her energy level was low and even her speed only rivaled C-rank yet he planted the parasite in her body.

There were eighty-one monsters here not including Souta, Yuko, Doranjan, and the red dragon. And Souta used thirty-three parasitic essence eaters to them. He was quite disappointed that not even half of them reach the power of B-rank but it was currently enough for him as the parasites in his body were limited.

He went out of the fortress with Alice as Doranjan and the rest were going to depart soon. They were going to fetch Yenxa’s tribesmen.

“Hu~”

Souta breath a sigh of relief. He was in the control room with Alice. He was glad that he didn’t need to move anymore. Since the battle, he hasn’t had enough time to relax his body. Now that he finished his duty as the leader, he could probably relax unless an accident occur.

“I’ll just plant parasites on humans and demis on our way. Becoming a leader is really a tiring thing…” Souta turned to Alice and said, “How about you take it over for me?”

Alice simply smiled and shook her head before she opened her mouth, “I have some knowledge but I don’t have experience like you nor I could do it like Mila.”

“Ugh, that’s unfortunate… In times like this, I really hope that Lumilia is with me. Every time we had finished our expeditions or battles I don’t have to do anything. She will simply provide all sorts of report files that I needed to look at.” Souta leaned back as he looked at the ceiling.

Alice fiddled with her fingers and slowly asked, “So aren’t you going to ask me about my identity?”

“Oh, nervous are you?” Souta raised his eyebrows with interest.

“Well, yeah. I don’t personally like talking about my background.” Alice slowly nodded.

“Then, I will not ask about it. If you want to say something then my ears are here. I will listen to you.” Souta looked away from her as raised his hands and placed them on the back of his head.

Alice stared at him for a while before she turned her eyes away. She flicked her fingers and a barrier that could isolate sounds.

“My true name is Alicia Remeri Lucifer.”

Souta was shaken as he turned his head towards Alice with wide eyes.

Alice continued, “You may not know it but I’m the third princess of one of the three Great Demon Emperors, Lucifer. I’m a noble demon from Demon’s Land.”

Of course, Souta knew Lucifer. Lucifer was one of the top god-level powerhouses in the entire Imperium. The only gods that could rival him were the Crimson Emperor, Pope of the True God, Zeus of Olympus, etc…

Ordinary gods were no match for him.

But what surprised him the most was that he couldn’t remember the third princess named Alicia in his memories. He could recall the first and second princess but not the third princess.
