The Evolution Of A Goblin To The Peak Chapter 144 - Chain Quest: Declaration

Chapter 144 - Chain Quest: Declaration

"I can't... move my body..." Souta said as he tried to move his body with all of his got but unfortunately, he just fell on the ground.
With a loud "thud" sound his body hit the ground causing him to groan in pain.
"Ah... Damn!" Souta cursed and he heard a familiar sound in his mind.
*Ding!*
[Congratulations on completing Lumilia's special quest!]
[You've received 50,000 exp, 15 free attribute points, and 10 skill points!]
'It's worth it.' Souta said inwardly when he saw the rewards that he received from fighting Gregory.
The battle was so hard that he had to use all of his trump cards. He only had one monster potion so the next time he fought someone he couldn't handle, he wouldn't be able to use it once again. He would only depend on his dark grade weapon.
Since he didn't hear a notification indicating that he killed Gregory only means one thing. And that's Gregory was still alive. But Souta was sure that Gregory was like him- exhausted, tired, and full of injuries.
'My level is quite lacking to take the other [Soul Blood Earring]. But I benefited a lot in this quest, so my power will increase after this. I will provide a time to take it next time.' Souta thought that he had to get the other earring to increase his power.
Right now, he could only use the [Harvester of the Soul] skill of the earring. He couldn't use its second skill because he needed the other pair to use it. To reach the level of universal equipment, he needed the complete pair of earrings.
'Okay, I have received fifteen free attribute points.' Souta thought to use this to increase his vitality attribute. If he increased his vitality attribute, his health will grow, and also he would gain stamina.
These two were connected to the vitality attribute after all. He would gain strength to leave this city.
That's it, he was going to allocate his fifteen free attribute points to vitality.
When he was about to use his free attribute points, Souta heard something.
...
"I miscalculated the power of the explosion..." Yujin said as he checked his body and found some wounds.
"I'll heal you, Yujin," Alophy said as she flew around him and casted a healing spell on Yujin.
Randolf looked at it and asked, "What about me? I need healing too."
"Hmph! I only heal Yujin. I can see that you're not gravely injured, so you can move without healing." Alophy snorted as she glanced at Randolf on the corner of her eyes. She then went back to healing Yujin's small wounds.
"What a bratty spirit..." Randolf commented when he saw her attitude towards him.
"I can hear you, you know?!" Alophy said in a loud voice.
"Haha, tell how old are you?" Randolf laughed and asked. He was curious about the age of this spirit.
If he wasn't wrong the spirit race, secluded themselves in the Dark Forest thousand years ago. Since then, no humans and demis saw them. They also didn't show themselves to humans and demis after that.
"You know, it's rude to ask that question to a lady?" Alophy said as she looked at Randolf.
"Lady? From what I can see you're just a brat." Randolf said to her as a matter of fact.
Alophy was about to say something when Yujin stopped her. Yujin sighed and said, "She's ten years old now. I've found her when she's still a newborn spirit."
"I see..." Randolf nodded his head and understood why she wasn't that powerful compare to the spirit that he read from the books.
If this spirit grew from the Dark Forest alongside the other spirit, then she knew the special power of spirit and she would be able to use it better. Because the other spirit there will teach her how to use spirit power. Right now, she couldn't properly use it.
Alophy hasn't met a single of her brethren ever since she was young.
"Yujin! Why are you telling him my age?!" Alophy complained to Yujin.
"Let's forget about it." Yujin shook his head and he looked at Souta who was lying on the ground.
"You should go and help him," Randolf said from the side.
Yujin glanced at Randolf and when he was about to walk towards Souta, Randolf grabbed his wrist. He turned to Randolf and asked, "What?"
"Shh!" Randolf placed his finger in front of his mouth. Then, he pointed at something and said, "Look over there."
"Hmm...?" Yujin followed Randolf's finger and saw a huge bear with red fur.
The bear was approaching Souta with unsteady steps. There were burned marks in some part of the body of the bear as its fur was also burned. It seems that this bear took some heavy damage.
"What's that bear?" Yujin asked when he saw the bear.
"A red fur bear," Randolf answered Yujin's question.
"I know that. I mean what is that bear doing here in this place, in the middle of a city." Yujin said as he rephrased his words.
"Look... The bear is in front of Souta. I wonder what it's going to do?" Randolf said.
"Maybe it's going to eat him," Alophy said while watching the scene on Yujin's shoulder.
"Isn't that bad?" Randolf looked at them and asked.
"Yeah, let's help him." Yujin nodded and said.
The red fur bear arrived in front of Souta. The bear sniffed Souta before she opened her mouth and gently bit his tottered clothes.
Of course, this red fur bear was Yuko, Souta's beast companion, but they were oblivious to it. They don't even know that Souta have a beast companion.
"The bear bit him! Yujin, the bear bit him!" Alophy shouted when she saw it.
"I know, I saw it, " Yujin said to his spirit.
"Wait, take a closer look. It's not biting him." Randolf said to the two.
Yujin and Alophy stopped talking as both of them focused their attention on the bear. They saw the bear raised up its head and placed Souta on it back.
Alophy was shocked when she saw this scene. Her eyes and mouth turned into an "O" shape. Then, she looked at Yujin and shouted, "Yujin! The bear is taking your classmate as food reserve!" She said those words while throwing her small fists on Yujin's face.
Randolf looked at Alophy and said, "Is that kind of thing always comes in your mind or not?"
"You! Are you mocking me or not?!" Alophy said in an angry tone as she pointed her finger at Randolf.
"I'm just asking you..." Randolf replied to her with a plain expression.
'"Stop! The bear is leaving with Souta in its back!" Yujin stopped the two from arguing as he pointed at the bear who was walking away with Souta.
Randolf and Alophy turned their heads and found that the bear was leaving with Souta.
Swoosh!
Alophy flew up in the air and looked at Yujin. She opened her mouth and said, "Come! Let's follow the bear Yujin! If we follow it there's a chance that we find its other victims!"
After saying that, she flew to follow the bear.
Yujin sighed while looking at her figure. He had no other choice but to follow her.
"Haha, let's go." Randolf laughed and said.
...
Souta sighed when he saw that Yuko was fine. He didn't have to worry about her and himself. Since she was here, Souta was sure that Yuko would protect him from any harm.
'You're lucky that you have a loyal pet.' Saya's voice sounded in Souta's head.
"Yeah, I am." Souta nodded at her words. He then closed his eyes and waited for Yuko to bring him out of the city.
'I'm wondering where did learn my name?' Saya's question sounded in his head.
"Where did you become so talkative?" Souta avoided her question by asking something.
'Ufufu, your so good at changing the topic. Actually, I have a lot of questions for you and I makes me interested in you. That's why I let you use my power.' Saya laughed in his mind.
"You will eventually know it in the future if you continue to follow me," Souta replied to her.
Suddenly, a loud voice of a man sounded in the whole city.
"I'm Ursus Von Asvares..."
...
Souta heard the loud voice so he perked up his ears and waited for Ursus' next words.
'What the hell is this man trying to do right now?' Souta thought as he tried to think if Ursus has some backup plan if Gregory lose.
"I apologized for what happened here in the city. It's all because my daughter did something unfavorable..." Ursus announced.
...
The students of the Mage Class 1-B stopped in their tracks when they heard the loud voice.
"Father..." Lumilia muttered as she looked up in the sky.
"Asvares?"
"That's class rep's father!"
"The most influential man of the Gripin city!"
Alice, Nayo, and the rest knew that the voice came from Lumilia's father because of his name. They weren't familiar with Lumilia's father but they knew his name because her father was somewhat famous.
Ursus's voice sounded in the whole city as he declared, "From now on, I'm expelling my daughter, Lumilia Von Asvares, from the household of Asvares Family. From now on, she has nothing to do with this family. I'm cutting all of her ties in this family."
Everyone heard Ursus's announcement. This announcement shocked everyone in the city.
...
'Ufufu, He knew that if his daughter left the city, she will be targeted by people that are after the Crystal Flame Honey, so he cut all her ties with him.' Says chuckled.
"I know," Souta said to her. "But there's something more to it."
