The Evolution Of A Goblin To The Peak Chapter 275 - I'm happy

Chapter 275 - I'm happy

Yujin was holding swords in both of his hands. He was standing alone in the middle of the ruined building. Smoke and flames were coming out of the debris of rocks and woods.
"Too easy." He muttered as he looked in the sky. He then heard someone called him from behind.
"Deputy Yujin, we finished our job here."
Yujin nodded and said, "Let's go back now. Gather everyone and retreat."
Yujin, Bryan, Lynn, Brando, and Alice were all deputies of the Dark Oculus Legion. Their ranks were below Lumilia who was the vice-commander of the legion.
All the members of the legion had to follow the orders of higher-ranking officers.
"The timing is right, we've crippled most of our enemies. In just two or three days we could win this fight." He muttered before he left with his subordinates.
The Dark Oculus Legion divided themselves and launched an attack on the nobles that declared war on Souta. Actually, they were already waiting at their enemy's headquarters. They just waited for Souta's signal to attack.
And the moment that Souta accepted all the war challenges, they quickly launched an attack on several bases of the nobles.
Yujin's group, Alice's group, and the fan club simultaneously stormed the enemy's HQ according to Lumilia's instruction. It was so sudden that the enemy didn't have a time to defend themselves. They could only watch as the group destroyed their building.
Lumilia was watching everything from the sideline. She was listening to the reports of her subordinates.
"Vice-commander, Deputy Yujin and the fan-club retreated."
"What about Alice?" Lumilia asked.
"Deputy Alice is facing the enemies B-rank." Her subordinates said with a gloomy look.
"I see... Send one party to help Alice. No, tell Yujin and his group to help Alice eliminate the enemies B-rank." Lumilia instructed her subordinates. She then turned her head to the horizon with a concerned look. Currently, the double-edged sword of the Dark Oculus Legion was rampaging in that direction.
...
"Ufufu, it's been a while since I've managed to release my power." A heterochromia girl laughed while looking down at the group of adventurers.
She was floating in the mid-air above the building. Her powerful aura was leaking out of her body.
Boom!
The group of adventurers on the ground gritted their teeth. The power of this girl was beyond their imagination. She was too strong for them.
"Let me enjoy this moment of destruction," Yanagi said with a faint smile on her face. She shoots a powerful beam towards the huge building below her.
The beam flew towards the building at high speed and the adventurers quickly jumped away to avoid getting caught in the explosion.
BOOM!!
The ground trembled as a giant mushroom of smoke rose in the sky. Everyone in the vicinity of the city felt the shockwaves of the explosion.
...
Clang! Clang! Clang!
Two figures collided repeatedly causing a gust of winds in the surrounding area. Sparks flew every time their weapon collided.
Clang! Clang!
After colliding several times, the two figures took a distance from each other.
"Huff... Huff..." Alice was breathing heavily as she tightened her grip on her spear. Her opponent this time was a strong B-rank adventurer.
But... She was different now. She was much several times stronger than she was in the past weeks.
"It's time to get serious," Alice said as she gathered her mana on the tip of her spear.
At the same time, the atmosphere around her changed. Her opponent could feel the changes in Alice.
[Sonic Thrust]!
Her opponent opened his eyes widely as Alice instantly appeared in front of him.
Swoosh!
Alice was so fast that an ordinary B-rank couldn't follow her speed when she used this combat art.
In just a second, she created a hole in the body of a B-rank adventurer.
This combat arts was a powerful combat arts from her homeland. She was trying to learn it a long time ago but she only succeeded a few days ago in Saya's inner consciousness. It increases her attack power by tenfold and her speed by twelvefold. The only downside was that she couldn't change the trajectory of her attack.
"I'm as strong as a veteran soldier in my homeland," Alice muttered as she smiled. The spear in her hands turned into a small pole before she placed it in her pocket.
This was the [Compression] ability of her spear.
"Deputy Alice, we received a message from Vice-Commander."
"Continue," Alice said as she turned to her subordinate.
"The message said that Deputy Yujin was heading in our direction ten minutes ago. Meet up with him and continue the plan."
...
In the Venreita's mansion...
Everyone was looking at Souta with a surprised looked. They understood the meaning of his words. To think that his forces were ready to attack.
He planned everything. He expected that Jagron and the others would challenge him in this party so he set up his army in advance and when the war started they quickly launched an attack.
Souta was terrifying. He was taunting everyone and used his mana fruits as baits so that they would challenge him. He already calculated what will happen to this party and their reaction to his mana fruits.
The rumors about Yanagi joining the group and this party prevented the nobles from acting. They prepared themselves for the party. At the same time, they hesitated when they heard Yanagi's name. They couldn't easily attack without preparation if Yanagi really joined the Dark Oculus Legion.
So, Souta set up everything in advance so that the war would start today and he will have a great advantage.
About the innocent citizens? There's no need to worry about them. The Guildmaster was the one who will handle it and Souta was prepared to pay for everything that they demolished. Of course, the property of his enemies was excluded in this.
"It's not my fault, you know? You're the one who challenges me to a legion war. Also, you should blame yourself and your family. You picked a fight with me and underestimate me." Souta's expression turned serious as he looked at the mad nobles in front of him with chilly eyes. "You should face the consequences. Tell your subordinates to tightened their guards in the next few days. I will personally launch an attack."
Jagron and the other nobles' complexion were pale. After hearing Souta words, they realized that Souta set them up. They could imagine what was happening to the legion under their family.
If Souta won the legion war then he will take everything they have including their mansion and money. His parents would get angry at him and will punish him. The worst-case scenario was that he will lose his position as heir of their family.
They looked around and saw that the other nobles were watching Souta humiliated them. They gritted their teeth in anger and their mana spiked up.
Swoosh!!
The audience took a step back as they saw that Jagron and the rest would resort to violence.
"You!! I'll defeat you right here and take back my honor!"
"Eh...?" Souta tilted his head. From their words, it felt that Souta was the villain here when he was supposed to be the victim.
He then raised his finger and warned the nobles.
"You should know that this place is the mansion of the duke and yet you're flaunting your weak mana like that. That's a sign of disrespect towards the duke."
Jagron and the others paused. They quickly hid their mana inside their body. They almost lose themself in front of the duke.
"But if you really want to fight me, you can ask Lord Franz to give his permission." Souta smiled as he spoke to Jagron and the rest. "Let me warn you. I'm strong and from my estimation, you wouldn't last a minute against me."
"Tsk! You'll pay for this!!" Jagron clicked his tongue before he turned around and left. The other nobles followed him.
Souta looked at their back with a cold tone. If he wasn't inside the duke's mansion, he would have already sliced the head of those brats.
"Let's go, Lynn." He looked at Lynn and said.
They went to the side and he picked a glass of wine.
Bryan and Silvia approached them. Leila also walked towards them. She managed to calm down thanks to Souta's show.
"I thought that a fight would break out." Bryan looked disappointed as he said those words. It seems that he wanted those people to attack so that he would be able to fight back.
"They will not do that. They are afraid of Lady Silvia's family." Souta said as he glanced at Silvia.
"You! Is this the reason why you come to this party?" Leila asked Souta in a loud voice.
"Hmm... I will leave it to your imagination. You see, I'm quite happy that everything went according to my plan." Souta smiled as he raised the glass of wine in his hand before he drunk it.
