The Evolution of a Goblin to the Peak
chapter-371

Six Knight Levels plus the vice-leader who was clearly stronger than them. It's not that bad but their power level was equal to C-rank in the Great World Imperium.

'Also, their fighting style is refined, unlike those C-ranks... They are much more stronger.' Alice thought as she appeared behind the two Knight Levels. One was a woman and one was a man.

She opened her arms and grabbed both of their heads before they could react. She then smashed their heads into each other before she lifted up her feet and kicked them away.

Boom!

Both of them crashed into several trees before they stopped.

Swoosh!

Hunts, the vice-leader, appeared behind Alice.

"Hmm?" Alice looked at the figure that appeared behind her at the corner of her eyes.

"Why are you attacking us?" Hunts asked as he slashed down the sword in his hand at Alice.

"I already said why don't you ask your member..." Alice swiftly turned around while using her elbow to hit her opponent on the stomach.

Bang!

She then faced him and pulled back both of her arms.

Bang! Bang!

She punched him in the stomach and the face causing a dent in his armor before she kicked him away. Hunts flew like a meteor and crashed on the building.

Boom!

Alice looked at Hunts and she titled her head as a knife passed beside her cheeks. She turned around to look at the remaining Knight Levels.

As soon as she turned around, Alice saw a wave of knives flying at incredible speed. She raised her hand and coated it with her mana.

Swoosh!

She tightened her muscles and swung her hand at the knives that were flying at her.

Clang! Clang! Clang!

She deflected all the knives easily but she noticed something. She saw a man below heading at her with a sharp dagger.

The man launched himself at Alice while thrusting the dagger in his hand. At the same time, she felt another Knight Level behind her.

Swoosh!

Alice raised her hand and shattered the dagger of the man in front of him. She then clad her side with her mana as she noticed that the sword of the Knight Level behind her was already at her side.

Boom!

Alice flew away and crashed into the closest building. Dust and smoke shot up filling up a certain part of the field.

"Damn! She's strong..." The Knight Level said while breathing heavily.

The other two nodded at his words. Judging from that exchange, they knew that this girl was stronger than them. The only one who could fight them at the same time was their leader, Synny.

"She... She's strong!!"

Isabella was amazed by what she saw. Souta said that girl was his comrade. To think that she could fight several Knight Levels alone was unbelievable.

"Yeah, Alice is strong... Her current strength is at the top of B-rank fighters."

Souta said to her with a smile on his face. It will take more than fifty C-rank powerhouses if they wanted to take down Alice and ninety percent of those C-ranks would die if she got serious.

"Are you that strong, Sir, no, S-Souta?"

Isabella asked him as she looked at him with bright eyes.

"Who knows..."

Souta replied to her as he shrugged his shoulder. He didn't say yes nor deny it. It's up to her to decide it. If she will going to join the group then she will see his strength sooner or later.

...

Hunts and the other Knights stood up. They went beside the three Knights and looked at the smoke. They saw a silhouette standing in the smoke while walking slowly.

Thud! Thud!

Another seven Knights arrived at the scene and stood beside Hunts and the rest. Fourteen Knights including Hunts were present and this was all the Knights that Dopheos Guild could provide.

"Is that all the Knights have got in this guild? Aren't you one of the strongest guilds, right? So why don't you show me your strength?"

Alice's voice resounded as she slowly walked out of the smoke. There's not even a scratch on her body even though the sword of one of the Knights landed a direct hit on her.

"Empowering your weapons with mana, that's all you could do. Really, a C-rank at best."

She said as a large amount of mana burst out of her body.

Boom!

Her mana swept out in the surrounding area and it placed a pressure on the body of all the Knights that was present.

"Fourteen C-ranks isn't that bad..."

The Knights of the Dopheos Guild felt like someone placed a boulder of rock on their shoulder. They could only grit their teeth as they looked at Alice who was releasing the pressure. Beads of sweat started to form on their forehead.

They couldn't believe it at all. They felt like they were standing in front of a powerful monster. They haven't met someone who could release this much mana.

This was the first time that they've felt it. Their hearts started to waver and their knees trembled subconsciously.

After a few seconds, Alice stopped pressuring them using her magic power.

She looked at them and said, "What's wrong? I thought that you're a great Knight..."

Maybe there were hundreds of C-ranks in the whole city. Still, it wasn't that bad considering it rivaled the might of those small village like Ibish Village. Without the guild master of the Adventurers Guild, only C-ranks possessed the greatest might.

"What do you want in Dopheos Guild?" Hunts said while gritting his teeth. He asked his normal subordinates to find the reason why this girl was attacking them. Up until now, that subordinate hasn't reported back to him yet.

"Just a few moments..."

Alice said and in an instant, she appeared beside Hunts. She then threw a punch at his face.

Swoosh!

Hunts quickly raised his sword to block her punch.

Bang!

Alice's fist smashed the sword and even though Hunts blocked it, he still flew away because of the immense force of her punch.

He felt his hands getting numb and cracks formed on the blade of his sword. He couldn't believe it. This girl was stronger than his leader, Synny. In fact, he could see that the girl was simply playing with them. If she wanted to end this battle, then she could easily end it.

"Fine... I'm done testing your strength... I will end this quickly..."

Alice muttered before she dashed at them.

Everything that happened next was so fast. She fought all fourteen Knights of the Dopheos Guild and defeated them easily. The fight was one-sided and it was hard to call it a battle anymore.

It was simply bullying.

After a few minutes, all the Knights were lying on the ground. They were full of injuries and broken bones. They could hardly fight back at all.

Alice was standing at the center of the field. Her presence was fearsome and it was terrifying to see how she beat the Knights alone.

She looked at them with cold eyes. She fulfilled her role. She finally has an idea about how strong was a Knight Level of this world. It's impossible for Knights to be the strongest here. If there were hundreds of C-ranks in a city like this then there's a possibility that a country has one or two B-rank powerhouses which was above C-rank.

'Yeah, it's really possible... Maybe there's even an A-rank.' She thought as she turned around.

"Just how strong she is... She easily defeated those Knights."

Isabella muttered with an amazed expression.

"We've completed one of our goals here..." Souta suddenly said.

"Goals...?" Isabella looked at him with a confused expression.

"Yes, one is to know how powerful a Knight is. The second is the freed you." Souta replied to her. He could forcefully remove the collar on her neck but he decided that he will just let the Dopheos Guild do it.

Taking a slave of a large guild and make them turned a blind eye on it while wrecking everything was something only strong people could do. There's a possibility that they will become the enemy of the whole city but since the Dopheos Guild lockdown the territory no one knew what's happening inside it.

Only the member of the guild knew that something terrible was happening in this place.

If there's really someone above Knights then the leader of the guild must know about it. Well, he was sure about it but the ordinary folks didn't know what it was called.

There's a rumor that the guild leader Synny was stronger than Knight.

"I see..." Isabella nodded with a dazed expression.

"Don't worry about it. Nothing bad will happen to you." Souta said to her. He then turned his head as he noticed someone heading towards Alice.

Alice turned around and was about to walk away when she heard a voice behind her.

"Excuse me, young miss."

She turned her head and saw a tall and muscular woman wearing formal clothes. She tilted her head and simply observed this woman. The mana emanating from this woman was stronger than the Knights that she had just fought.

The muscular woman placed her hand on her chest and kneeled down while saying, "I, Synny Dopheos, Leader of the Dopheos Guild, am honored to meet a Master-Class Knight."
