The Evolution Of A Goblin To The Peak-Novel

Chapter 594: Another Clue?

Somewhere, inside a dark area, a man was sitting comfortably on a chair while resting his chin on his palm, behind him stood a man with pink color hair.

Both of them were watching several projections in front of them.

"Hmm... So he finally arrived on God's Continent..." The man on the chair mumbled.

"Yeah, his progress is good. That land will be enveloped in chaos soon. It will become a battlefield for gods soon." The man with pink color hair replied.

"Everything is according to plan. I'll arrange it so that he could fight the person behind the incident sooner." The man on the chair said in a deep tone.

"But it's not enough if you want him to continue getting stronger." The man behind said.

"That's why the background of that person is important. It will become an all-out battle against him. Of course, it will not be an immediate battle as I know that he will lose. I will slowly arrange the scenario for him like I always do." The man on the chair paused for a moment before he said, "Then, I'll use the demons. Tragedy is the best way to make him stronger."

"What about the Bringers of Calamity?"

"Oh, those people? They are certainly strong but don't worry. They are also moving according to my plan. I have the perfect scenario in my head. It will become an epic scene."

"Then, you'll let him go back to Giza Continent?"

"Yes, it will be one of the epic scenarios. I will arrange the final battle with his teacher before he ascends to the rank of monster lord."

"You're really good at setting up things." The man behind said with a sigh.

"What can I do? I've been here for eleven cycles and I can't even get out of this place. So I could only watch and set up the things outside but I guess this will be the last cycle. If it failed then..." The man on the chair said with a shrug.

The man with pink color hair turned silent. He had been here for one cycle and it's not comparable to the man before him. The cycle that the man said was the extermination every twenty thousand years.

It means that he came from the era twenty thousand years ago and the man before him came from the era two hundred twenty thousand years ago.

"The end will start soon. Do you think that you could stop it?" He asked the man before him.

"You're the only variable in the last cycle but the cycle this time is different. There are dozens of variables that could change the tide and I'm arranging things for them so that they could reach the limit." The man said with a small smile.

"If we could only move out of this place." The man with pink hair said. ɴᴇᴡ ɴᴏᴠᴇʟ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀʀᴇ ᴘᴜʙʟɪsʜᴇᴅ ᴏɴ _Fire

"We could. But not now. The cycle this time will be much worse than the previous cycles and it will be the time to do things that I haven't done before." The smile on the man's face grew wider.

They were sealed. Sealed in a place where no one could reach.

The Blankness. A place where there's no concept of creation. Only nothingness.

...

Early in the morning...

Souta was walking in the streets near the district of the nobles. He was observing if some of the nobles were connected to the incident. After learning something about the incident twenty-seven years ago, he guesses that the chances that he would find the culprit within the nobles were low.

'I should find the underground place where they said they found the cursed artifact.' He said inwardly.

Hmm?

He slightly turned his head. His gaze pierced through the crowd and in the corner of the alley, a group of people was beating a man.

This incident always occurred in every city and it's not his problem so he didn't need to involve himself. He would be exhausted if he tried to help everyone.

He wasn't a Saint nor a Hero. He was just a man that was training hard so that he don't experience the same thing.

"Oh?"

A shop caught his attention.

He moved his body and entered the shop. He closed his eyes and smell the aroma in the air.

"Good."

He smiled and sat on the chair.

This shop was a coffee shop. Since he liked coffee, he wouldn't let this chance not to taste the coffee of this place.

After a few minutes, his order had arrived. He looked at the cup of coffee and held it in his hand.

"The temperature is good and the fragrance is nice. What about the taste? Let's find out."

Souta brought the cup near his face and took a sip.

"Ahhh... It's good. The ingredients are normal but the taste is perfect. I really like it."

He smiled comfortably as he placed down the cup on the table. He glanced sideways and asked the waitress, "Can you call the master for me?"

"Do you have a problem, sir?" The waitress asked politely.

"No, I found this coffee to my liking so I just want to meet the master that brews this perfect coffee." Souta smiled.

"Sir, we have other customers so he still brewing coffee for other people." The waitress replied.

"Oh," Souta raised his eyebrows before he looked around.

Just like what the waitress said, he wasn't the only customer of this coffee shop. There were seven other customers.

Well, he could wait.

'Do you think you should drink coffee comfortably here in this place?' Saya asked him.

'It's not bad to relax once in a while. Plus, I'm investigating the case since yesterday night so no one will complain if I try to relax for a few minutes. It will not harm me anyway also it could help me clear my mind.' Souta shrugged his shoulder and continued to drink his coffee.

After a while, he noticed that the waitress wasn't serving anyone anymore, and also no customer had entered the shop. The staffs were free and it was the time.

Souta stood up and he walked towards the waitress. He paid his bill and called the master.

"Is the master free? I really want to see him."

The master was an old man with slick back white hair. His movement was elegant and it seems that he had trained before.

'B-rank...' Souta gazed at the master and it seems that the master really trained before. He has a decent power level for a person that brews a coffee.

If it was before B-rank was a big deal for him but now, B-rank wouldn't even be able to scratch him. Only people at the Shackled Realm could give him a beating. Unless people broke their mortal bindings, Souta was sure that he would be able to defeat anyone.

That's how confident he is in his strength.

Although he was invincible in the realm of S-rank and the third evolution monster, the realm of shackle was really hard to catch up with his current evolution. He guess that unless he got two pieces of equipment of his in the game he wouldn't be able to battle a shackle realm in a one on one battle.

Souta slightly bowed down and said, "I'm Souta Ieshi, I'm honored that I could meet someone who could brew a delicious coffee like this one."

The master only had a power level of B-rank but he was an elder and most of all he could brew delicious coffee. That's why Souta had to show his respect.

"Oho, a young man that likes coffee. No need to now down, brewing coffee is just my hobby. It's rare for young people like you to drink coffee these days. Most of the young people wanted to taste those drinks that have a good effect on their bodies." The old man said. "But I haven't seen you before. Are you new to this place?"

"Yes, master. I just arrived on this dukedom the other day. I didn't expect that I would taste a delicious coffee here." Souta said politely. He then looked around and asked, "Master, I have a question."

"What is it, young man?" The old man asked with interest.

"Do you want to move out of this place? If you want you can work for me. Don't worry, master. The work is still the same as you only have to brew coffee." Souta said straightforwardly.

The old man smiled and shook his head. "I'm sorry, young man, but this is my hometown. I want to live in this place peacefully."

Souta turned silent as he looked down. He slowly opened his mouth and said, "But I think that there will be turmoil in this place later."

"Oh, you're talking about the recent incident."

Souta raised his head with a surprised expression.

The old man smiled and said, "Don't be surprised. I've been living in this place for a long time so I have an idea about the recent incident."

"Then, can you..." Before Souta could finish his question, the old man continued, "The case this time is the same as before but it's much worse. If you don't want to get involved with it, you can leave the dukedom as soon as possible. Several organizations are moving behind the scene."

Souta narrowed his eyes.
