The Evolution Of A Goblin To The Peak Chapter 152 - Me too

Chapter 152 - Me too

This news was foreshadowing the rise of the Mechanic Country. A powerful country that will soon reach the level of the Three Great Countries.
The Mechanic Country will soon become a powerhouse in the Giza Continent and it will contribute a lot in the war against the demon.
But first... Before the Rise of the Mechanic Country event, the Demon Invasion will come first before everything. This was also the start of the chaotic era and the version 2 of the game.
Before the version 2 started, the demon will start to appear in the southern part of the continent. The Listen Wastes will experience it first before any country in this world. And when the version 2 started, the demon will surge the countries in the southern part of the continent and it will spread up until the Hebrei Kingdom.
Souta frowned since he knew that he only had four months left before the start of version 2.
"Four months is enough for me to rank up my class but evolution... " Souta muttered as he closed the newspaper. He smiled and went inside his house. "Well, let's see if there's some unexpected factor that will happen in these four months."
All the points he earned in the Gripin city could be used to level up one of his spells, but to reach level 10 and promote to Rank 3 Mage? It still wasn't enough.
If he triggered another quest like that once again, Souta wouldn't hesitate to use his lifespan. Although, it was a pity if his lifespan decrease. It was still worth it if he survived the version 2.
What would he do to his lifespan if he was weak and he could die at any moment in the version? It's better to increase his power right now than to save his lifespan as he knew that once he reached his third evolution or battle mage class, his chances of surviving the Demon Invasion event will increase.
He also knew that his lifespan would greatly increase once he evolved because a monster with a monster orb was completely different than those lower-level monsters. Their overall stats were higher than ordinary and their lifespan was many times higher than normal monsters.
These monsters brought fear and anxiety to the whole city of humans and demis. Their existence alone was capable of that.
Souta closed the door and he went back to sleep so that he could go to class tomorrow.
...
Souta woke up early in the morning when he felt a wet feeling on his face. Then, a soft wet thing passed on top of his face.
"Ah, what's that?" Souta opened his eyes and quickly pushed himself into a seated position. He looked around and found that it was only Yuko.
Yuko looked at him and she opened her mouth widely. Then, she gently bit his clothes and pulled him.
"You're hungry..." Souta muttered as he stood up and followed Yuko. He recalled that Yuko was sleeping when he, Bryan, and the rest ate the food that Lynn cooked.
He followed Yuko inside her house. There, she pointed her mouth towards the closed storage room. It seems that he was right when he guessed that Yuko was hungry.
"Okay, I'll open it." Souta sighed and he walked towards the door. But he found that the key that was hanging on top of the door was gone.
"Where is it?"
He looked around and found the key beside his feet.
"This...?" Souta squatted down and picked up the key. He turned his head and glanced at Yuko. "Did you try to open the door with this key?"
"Nn." Yuko whimpered in a very small voice. It seems that she understood Souta's words.
"Don't worry, I won't hurt you. I'm just surprised that you managed to learn it." Souta smiled gently at her. He then shrugged his shoulder and said, "Well, with your limbs. It looks like you can't put it inside the keyhole."
"Mu." Yuko tilted her head while looking at him.
Souta laughed and he turned around. He then opened the door.
"Stay here for a while. Let me prepare it for you."
...
After he finished preparing Yuko's meal, Souta went inside his room and wore his uniform.
He then hung the [Vajra Sword Saya] on his waist like he always does.
"Okay, I'm ready to go."
He guessed that it will take more than a week before the monster potion that Jimmy promised to him will arrive. After all, the monster potion was a very rare potion that can only be found in unexplored ruins and dungeons. It's not surprising that Jimmy will have a hard time finding it even with the help of his connections.
Souta shook his head and put those things in the back of his mind. It's not his problem how Jimmy acquired the monster potion for him. The only thing he cared about was that Jimmy kept his promise to him.
'You really integrated yourself in the city of humans and demis without getting yourself found out that you're a monster.' Saya chuckled while Souta was looking at his reflection in the mirror.
"It's not that hard as long as you know their culture but..." Souta paused for a moment before he added, "Once I've formed my monster orb, the difficulty in hiding my identity as a monster will increase."
'I know. I'm sure you realize it that those people from the Ladro Institute will be able to sense the best feram.' Saya said in his head before she laughed like she always does. 'Ufufu, I'm waiting for it.'
Even if Souta evolved to his next evolution he wouldn't be able to hide his best feram from those powerful teachers in the Ladros Institute. At the very least, he needed to reach their level before he could hide it from them.
"Well, it doesn't matter to me. I will leave this place and head to the God's Continent after I've evolved." Souta muttered while looking at his face in the mirror.
'Ufufu, that's a good decision as there are monsters there that are treated as gods by the people living there. Just like the four sacred beasts; the Azure Dragon, the Vermillion Bird, the White Tiger, and the Black Tortoise. Those four are like gods in that continent.' Saya praised him for his decision to go there in the God's Continent.
Souta already had a plan to go there, after he settled all the things here in the Giza continent. Because he had to free the Nine-headed Hydra, which was his pet back in the game.
It will be a huge help to him as the Nine-headed Hydra was a monster that undergo the fifth evolution. In other words, its level was above level 80.
'Ufufu, listening to you. It feels like you're sure that you will evolve into a higher species of a goblin.' Saya laughed in his head. 'You are truly a confident goblin.'
Goblin? Right now, Souta didn't understand what he is or why did he have a system in the real world.
Souta shooked his head and went downstairs.
He bid farewell to Yuko before he went to the Ladro Institute.
...
Souta arrived inside the Ladro Institute and found that every class was busy preparing for the upcoming cultural festival.
After walking for a few minutes, Souta arrived in the cafeteria. He bought a cup of coffee and found that a lot of students were glancing at him from time to time.
"That's Souta..."
"Really?"
"The one who fought Lord Gregory and defeated him."
"Damn! How could a student be that powerful?!"
"If I'm not wrong there are only ten students in the Institute that could fight those at the level of Lord Gregory?"
"Yeah, you're right about that. They are the top 10 students in the power ranking of the Ladro Institute."
"So you're telling me that Souta, a first-year student is at that level!"
"No, haven't you heard the news at all. Souta used the monster potion to fight Lord Gregory."
The students started to murmur to each other while glancing at Souta. They didn't dare to look at his eyes as they were afraid that they will tick him off.
"I truly become a famous person just from that incident," Souta muttered as he smiled to himself. He ignored those students and left the cafeteria.
...
He arrived inside his classroom and his classmates greeted him.
"Good morning, Souta!"
"We heard from Bryan that you're fine now!"
Souta smiled at them and greeted them back. The Mage class 1-B was preparing for the upcoming cultural festival.
He sat on his seat after he placed down his bag. He turned his head to his side and looked at Alice. He opened his mouth and said, "What you did there was out of my expectation."
Alice looked at him and smiled beautifully before she replied, "Me too."
Souta was stunned when he saw her face.
"What the-" Before he could finish what he was going to say, Saya interrupted him.
'Stop, I know what you are thinking. I bet you are thinking about visiting the red light district before.
'Ufufu, what a naughty goblin you are. No, I think that all goblins are naughty.'
