The Evolution Of A Goblin To The Peak-Novel

"I'll kill you... You take Yenxa from me then I'll have to take your life."

Souta said in a frosty tone. His killing intent shot through the sky shaking everyone in the whole area.

"This...!" Draymond flinched.

Souta's killing intent spread out like a tsunami swallowing everything. It was filled with rage and pure savageness. It could be felt throughout the entire area around the Mountain of Demise.

It was too strong.

Eztein, Torkez, Franklin, and the thousands of people around the foot of the mountain couldn't help but stopped what they were doing. They stood on the spot as they stared at the mountain before their eyes.

The intensity of the killing intent made the weaker-willed people lose their minds.

"Argh!! No!!"

"ARGHHH!!!"

"Kill them all!!"

The people with low resistance collapsed on the ground. The killing intent was too strong and it attacked everyone's mind. Some people started to hallucinate while some of them directly fainted as they couldn't handle the pressure brought into their minds.

"Oh, no, our boss is angry! Shit! This is bad!" Eztein said while staring at the top of the mountain.

"This is the first time that I've felt Souta this angry..." Torkez muttered.

"I don't like this feeling. If Souta is like this then something serious must have happened." Franklin narrowed his eyes.

On the other side of the mountain...

Isabella was staring at top of the mountain with a worried look.

"Souta..." She muttered to herself.

Inside the mysterious passage...Follow current ɴᴏᴠᴇʟs on NoᴠelFɪre.net

Alice stopped in her tracks as she felt the killing intent. She remembered this feeling before. It was the same as that time when the Deadly Sin's officers attacked them.

Aside from that time, Souta never showed this type of killing intent in the other people that they've fought before. Even when fighting in the Sub-world or in the Dukedom where they fought the curse user.

This was the second time.

This made her worry. Alice wanted to go back to check Souta but she had to see what lies in this passage. She gritted her teeth and continued to move forward. She just hoped that there was nothing dangerous here.

Souta was like a demon king that awakened from his slumber. He was full of rage that caused the atmosphere to quickly turned cold.

Draymond stopped at his track as he felt a chill on his spine. He widened his eyes as he stared at Souta. He could feel the intense killing intent that was oozing out of Souta's body. It was uncontrollable and it made his hairs stand on its end.

In his vision, he could see a manifestation of a giant predator behind Souta's back.

Gulp!

Draymond subconsciously took a step back. It was his first time seeing a killing intent manifestation like this. It was like he was hallucinating. It was a frightening feeling.

"Eh~ it's not like you haven't taken someone's life before. This killing intent is the proof of how many people you've killed before. Surely, you haven't thought that you could lose the people beside you." Draymond forced a smile on his face.

"I'm a hypocrite. I don't care about what you think of me." Souta said in a cold tone. He tightened his grip around the handle of the vajra sword before he dashed forward.

Swoosh!!

"I forgot that you're a monster!" Draymond laughed and he faced Souta head-on.

Both of their figures collided causing a huge shockwave. They fought fiercely shattering everything in their paths. Their speed was extreme and no ordinary experts could perceive their movements. They were too fast to the point that they could escape the senses of low Shackled Realm experts.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

Souta and Draymond retreated a hundred meters away from each other.

Draymond wasn't as easygoing just like their fight in Heiro Kingdom's capital. In the short amount of time that they've gone, Souta has grown stronger. A fourth stage monster that could fight a Four Shackles Realm expert like him was simply unbelievable.

He should've killed Souta before but the appearance of the Mountain of Demise was unexpected that's why he quickly left to initiate the ritual. And he didn't take Souta as a real threat before. The only dangerous thing about Souta was that he was the master of Nine-Headed Hydra. Draymond focused his attention on the hydra and sent some people to seal it using the precious energy that they'd gathered for several years through Blood Sacrifice.

Draymond also knew the history of Hall Plains. He knew that the gods of Olympus wouldn't really step into this land by sending more powerful experts. After all, almost every god in Imperium knew the No God Emperor. There were lots of consequences once they tried to pry their nose into the land that the Five Commandments decimated in the past.

Right now, no big factions wanted to antagonize the Ten Commandments or any of the Bringers of Calamity. They were currently busy dealing with the demons so they didn't want to add more enemies for the time being. What if while they were fighting the demons the Ten Commandments appeared and helped the demons? Even if it was a slim chance of angering the Ten Commandments, they still didn't want to risk it since the consequences would be dire and it would greatly change the whole state of God's Continent.

Draymond took a deep breath. He smiled and said, "You're unbelievable. You managed to step close to my realm in just a short amount of time but it's not enough to defeat me."

If he gave Souta another month or so, Draymond was sure that Souta would be able to fight him toe to toe. Maybe, even defeat him.

"Well, it's enough..." Souta said calmly but deep inside his rage was getting out of control.

The reason why he grew stronger was that he trained his body to the limit while waiting for the cooldown time of his equipment skills. Also, he became level 68 now after the day when Imperium cried. Then, he used three Level-up cards to increase his level to 71 before this battle. Although using the Level-up cards that he was saving was a waste here, he had to do it if he wanted to defeat Draymond.

Then, he earned 8 skill points by completing the Quest 3 of the Chain Quest. So he had a total of 33 skill points.

He used 30 points to upgrade level 6 [Shadow Damager] to level 10. It earned his requirement to promote his class.

Before fighting Draymond, he did all of this so that he could battle this Four Shackles guy and give him an opportunity to end this battle once and for all.

So he was a Rank 3 Great Battle Mage the moment he started fighting Draymond.

"You think you could defeat me," Draymond said.

"Yeah." Souta nodded calmly.

"Let's see the full extent of your strength!" Draymond raised his voice as his aura flared up. His energy burst like a bomb that swoops everything around him.

Fire and water particles spread out covering an entire area within a radius of two kilometers. He finally used his [Dual Element Drive: Fire and Water Force].

Draymond bent his knees and in the blink of an eye, he arrived in front of Souta. His energy was like a tsunami that was going to swallow his opponent in just a second. It was a terrifying sight.

"Die!!" Draymond said as he swung his fist.

"You think you're the only one who has two elements!"

Draymond heard Souta's voice before he saw a flash of brilliant light shot into the sky. The light twisted around the darkness as if they were giving each other strength.

[Dual Element Drive: Dark and Light Integration]!!

Souta's light element was not as strong as his dark element but it already reached the stage of Integration. He managed to speed up his training speed thanks to the [Divine Light Circulation] technique. He knew that his elemental ability was nothing compared to Alexander's but Souta was still proud of his success.

"This...?! Two elements at Integration!!" Draymond was stunned at this sight.

Souta didn't let this opportunity pass by. He swiftly swung the vajra sword in his hand. Light and darkness swirled around the red energy blade as it blasted Draymond away.

Bang!!

Ugh! Draymond groaned in pain. His orange-grade clothes suffered heavy damage from that one slash.

"I'm not done yet!!" Souta repeatedly swung the vajra sword. At the same time, the four spider limbs on his back shoot several [Bestrou].

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Draymond took everything. He was forced back but he quickly regained his posture. The difference in their elemental realm shortened the power gap between him and Souta.

It was to the point that Souta could literally threaten him.

Draymond gritted his teeth and punched the incoming [Bestrou]. The explosion shook the entire mountain causing huge fragments of rocks to fly out everywhere.

He then charged forward and clashed with Souta hundreds of times in midair. Souta tried to use all sorts of tricks to counter Draymond who was coming at him with killing intent.
