The Evolution Of A Goblin To The Peak

Chapter 127 - Chain Quest: Killing the knights from Vidrato Family

Souta decided to not wait for the knights to attack them. He will be the one to initiate it.

Souta grinned and several tentacle-like shadows emerged from the ground.

All the people in the area noticed the spike of his mana including Lumilia, Brianna, John, and Jane.

They opened the window and looked outside. They saw Souta on top of the Adventurers Guild with a grin on his face while looking down on the masses. Around him were several shadows that were moving slowly.

"What the hell is he doing?!" Brianna shouted and she looked around only to find that the knights were focused on Souta.

She frowned and turned to Lumilia. "Miss Asvares, we’re going to help Souta so stay here for a while." She then looked at John and Jane. "Let’s go, you two."

Brianna then jumped through the window and the two followed her.

Lumilia sighed and looked at around the room. The unconscious man that Souta took was still here. She decided that she’ll guard this man until Souta and the rest finished what they were doing.

...

Yuko who was hiding in the bushes lifted up her head when she felt her owner’s magic power. She wouldn’t forget this magical signature. It was from the one and only master of hers.

"Mu...?"

She thought that it was the signal to come to where her owner is. She slowly moved her limbs and went out of the bushes.

She then looked at the direction where she felt Souta’s magic power before she ran towards it at full speed.

...

Souta gathered the attention of every people in the area including those knights from the two noble families. Of course, they recognized Souta’s face and looks.

He was one of the adventurers that Lumilia hired.

"What the hell is that boy doing up there?"

"Is there some show here?"

"I don’t know, but I heard he mention festival starting today."

"I don’t know but he looks suspicious."

"Yeah, and the thing is he’s standing on top of the Adventurers Guild."

The people started murmuring to each other about Souta. They talked about all kinds of things they could think of regarding Souta.

...

Souta slowly opened his mouth and said, "Go, we’ll create a party right now."

Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!

The shadows around him flew straight towards every knight in the area.

Everyone was shocked when they saw Souta launched an attack against several people.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

The knights managed to repelled his shadows using their sword but some of the knights got caught up.

"Break!" Souta said as he closed his palm and the shadows around the knights tightened. It crushed the bones in their arms and legs.

Crack!

A bone-cracking sound echoed in the whole area.

The whole area was silent as the people were shocked when they saw what did Souta do to those knights that he caught.

After a few seconds, a woman screamed and ran away from the scene while holding her head.

"Ah! Help!"

Her scream became the trigger that snapped everyone out of their daze. They started to panic as everyone ran in all directions with hurried footsteps.

"These are just ordinary knights. Where are the elite knights?" Souta muttered while looking at the knights below him. The thing was that these knights were from the Asvares family. That’s why he couldn’t kill them.

He didn’t have any plan to kill a knight from Lumilia’s family. He would only knock them out or injured them to the point that they wouldn’t be able to fight him again. Well, either way, the wounds that he gave them could be healed using a tier 2 healing spell.

Souta bent his knees and flew towards the west using [Air Walk]. He was absolutely calm right now as he got carried away and started a fight before the Adventurers Guild.

He didn’t want to bother those folks in case the branch Guild Master appeared. As long as he didn’t bother the Adventurers Guild, it would be fine even if he rampaged throughout the city. He didn’t want to be demoted to E-rank.

Also, he was sure that the Gripin City’s Adventurers already knew him because he was quite a famous adventurer right at the moment.

A demi with red fur bear.

So he thought that they would give him some space while doing a quest here in this city. By giving him space means that they wouldn’t bother him.

"He’s trying to escape!" One of the knights shouted while looking at Souta.

"Follow him! Don’t let him escape!" The knights followed Souta but some of them stay in this place to help their fallen comrades.

Souta glanced at them and he didn’t increase his speed so that they could catch up to him. He continued ran until he was five hundred meters away from the inn that he rented. On his way, the knights that were following him increased in numbers.

Right now, more than thirty knights were following him. Twelve of these knights were from Asvares family while the rest came from Vidrato family. He could differentiate them because of the difference in armor design and the crest.

Suddenly, Souta stopped moving and he just stood straight in one of the rooftops of the houses in this area.

There were still those ignorant people that were watching the knights and Souta from the sideline.

Souta looked down at the knights and said, "Let’s stop playing tags. From now on let’s fight seriously."

Several shadows emerged from the ground and it flew towards the direction of the knights at high speed.

Swoosh!! Swoosh!! Swoosh!!

The knights knew this spell so they easily repelled the shadows but none of them managed to cut it in half.

Souta then stomped his feet on the roof and casted [Shadow Spike]. The spike burst out of the roof and it continued to spread until it reached the position of the knights.

"Jump!" One of the knights shouted while looking at the spikes that were rising up from the ground.

The knights didn’t have a choice but to jump in the air to avoid the spikes on the ground.

Suddenly, they saw Souta in front of them in the mid-air.

"W-What?"

They were surprised to see him appeared in front of them in an instant.

"Vidrato family? I will annihilate you..." The corner of Souta’s mouth stretched out into a smirk. He grabbed his sword and used the [Crimson Moon] skill.

Swoosh!!

The three knights from Vidrato family were sliced in half. They were the ones closest to Souta so they couldn’t react in time when Souta activated his skill.

The knights on the back barely blocked his attack. They received wounds on their bodies as they couldn’t completely block that attack.

These knights were just normal knights. They didn’t have enough power to compete to the C-rank adventurers.

Souta and the knights landed on the ground. He canceled his spell as he didn’t want to waste any more mana. Although he has mana potions in his pocket, he still wanted to save it for the upcoming battles with the elite knights.

Souta looked at the knights and said, "Come, I will take all of you."

The knights looked at Souta and they raised their sharp swords. They were wary of him as they saw him killed three knights easily.

"If you’re not going to come then I will..." Souta said as he charged towards the nearest knight on his left side.

Swoosh!!

In just a second, he appeared in front of the Vidrato family knight.

The knight was slightly surprised at this but he quickly regained his composure and slashed his sword towards Souta.

Souta shifted his body sideways and the sword passed beside him before he grabbed the wrist of the knight. He then stabbed the Vajra sword in the knight’s chest.

"I’m sorry if you want to blame someone then blame that lord of yours for trying to kill Yuko," Souta said before he waved his sword and the knight was sliced into two.

"Ah!"

Souta heard a shouted behind him. He quickly turned his head and saw three knights charged at him in unison. He looked at the crest in the chest part of their armor and saw that they were from the Asvares family.

"[Cat’s Speed] and [Triple Muscle Strengthening]" Souta activated the combat arts that could temporarily increase his power and speed.

The three knights arrived in front of him and immediately slashed their swords.

Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!

Souta simply blocked all of their attacks with his sword. He moved swiftly as he appeared behind the three knights and threw a powerful punch in the face of one of the knights.

He then lifted up his feet and swept them all using his feet.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

The threw knights flew and crashed on the ground.

Souta chased after them as he wouldn’t give them a chance to recover. He knocked them out one by one using his fist.

He wouldn’t kill the people from Lumilia’s family, only have one target this time. It was to decrease the force of the Vidrato family by killing all the knights that they sent after him.

"Let’s see, if you’re going to make a move after I kill all of your subordinates," Souta muttered with a smirk on his face while looking at the rest of the knights around him.
