The Evolution of a Goblin to the Peak

chapter-412
"I don't have a time to explain it to you..." Travksy then glanced at Isabella. "You're my successor. You will inherit my skills and knowledge. I hope that it will help you in your journey to the top."
Isabella nodded meekly.
"Still, your group is pretty strange. A blood goblin, a dead vajra deity, and a human." Travksy said with a smile and then his expression turned serious. "I'm going to warn you. Prepare yourself. Gather powerful allies and prevent gods from dying. I know that it's hard to do it as your power level is too low but the calamity is coming."
He already saw that Saya was dead. She was just a consciousness like him that was stuck in an object. Nothing escape from the senses of a powerful god of hunt.
"Is that about the Great War that happened twenty thousand years ago?" Souta asked.Travsky raised his eyebrows as he glanced at Souta. He slowly opened his mouth and said, "So you know about it?"
"Yes, somehow. I've discovered some things about what happened in the past. Can you tell us what's the status of the opponents that you've fought?" Souta asked.
"I couldn't tell you even though I want to say it to everyone. A powerful curse is currently active that let everyone from that era shut their mouth about the great war. Luckily, I already inscribed some words in the stone tablet before that curse was activated." Travksy said in a deep tone.
"So you're saying that you couldn't tell anyone about it as the curse is preventing you? I understand." Souta nodded as he narrowed his eyes.
Just how powerful is their opponent to cast a curse that stopped everyone in that era to say anything about that event?
"That curse prevented us from telling everyone about it. It also prevented us from writing down words about it. If you're wondering about the words on the stone tablet then worry not. I've already written it before the curse was activated so nothing happened to me. I'm not the only one who left hints about the event. Just roam around the Imperium and you will find it. If you pieced it together then you will understand what really happened back then..." Travksy said to them.
Souta didn't say anything as he just kept looking at the god of hunt. He already had an idea and he still wanted to ask some questions but he knew that Travksy couldn't answer him because of that powerful curse.Travksy recalled something and he asked, "You said that twenty thousand years had passed?"
"Yeah," Souta answered him. He waited for a while but the god of hunt just kept looking at him. He frowned and asked, "Are they coming?"
The god of hunt just kept looking at him seriously and Souta understood that he was right. The invaders were coming to the Imperium.
After a few moments, Travksy opened his mouth and said, "This is it. I'm going to disappear now. You have an idea about the event so don't forget my words. Prepare yourself and gather powerful allies..."
His body slowly turned transparent and he disappeared into thin air.
Swoosh!
The next moment, Souta and Isabella found themselves in front of the stone tablet with a blank expression.
"Accept this gift of mine. It will help you in your journey before you reached godhood..."
Travksy's faint voice lingered in their ears and Souta heard a notification in his head.
*Ding!*
[You've received the blessing of the God of Hunt!]
[God of Hunt Blessing] A blessing from a powerful God of Hunt. It will provide the user's great boost in his overall abilities.
Upon activation, the user will gain the following boost...
->The user's perception will increase by 200% percent.
->The strength, intelligence, and vitality attribute will increase by 40%, and the agility and dexterity attribute will increase by 80%.
->It will also give the user an ability called [Watching Prey].
--->[Watching Prey] it will increase the damage to a lock prey by 100%. Can only be used at one target.
The blessing can only be used for 1 hour per week.
Note: The God of Hunt is dead so the blessing isn't as powerful as the blessing of a living god.
"I received a blessing...?" Souta muttered when he saw the system notification. So the god of hunt wasn't stingy at all.
He turned to Isabella and saw her blank expression. It seems that she already received the legacy of the god of hunt and her mind was processing it.
Coming to this world was the right choice after all. He didn't expect that he would find a god's legacy in this place. Although he didn't get it, at least Isabella managed to get it. If it was other people then, Souta would feel that it was a waste.
A blessing from a god was worth it. The only problem was that the god of hunt was dead and its blessing wasn't as strong as the other blessings. He also could only use it once a week, unlike Yuko's blessing which she could use once a day.
"I've gained another ace..." Souta couldn't help smile when he thought about the blessing. But thinking about the great war, he couldn't help but narrow his brows.
The war against the invaders wasn't included in the game events. He wouldn't have an advantage against those invaders. He didn't know anything about them so he would be cautious if he were to meet them in the future.
Travksy, the god of hunt, said that we should prevent other gods from dying as it will weaken the overall strength of the Great World Imperium.
The problem was how could he prevent it.
The demon invasion and the attack of the bringers of calamity. Hundreds of god-level powerhouses will perish in these two events. It was hard to stop it as he didn't have enough power. Also, the three great countries will not compromise with the three bringers of calamity. Even the forces of God's Continent will not accept it as in the attack of the Gluttony, dozens of gods will perish in their forces.
For now, the only thing that he could do was to increase his strength as fast as possible and solidify his foundation.
...
Isabella finished organizing her thoughts. She turned to Souta and asked, "What is really happening, Souta?"
Souta shook his head and said, "Actually, I really didn't know about it. I just know that a great war occurred twenty thousand years ago. The scale of a great war isn't limited to one world. It shrouded everything in this universe."
He explained to her what he knows about the great war. He also introduced Saya to her. Since Isabella saw Saya, he couldn't hide Saya anymore. Even Lumilia, Alice, and the rest didn't even know Saya.
Isabella was the only one who knew her aside from Souta.
"So in other words, the whole universe is in danger..." Isabella said and Souta nodded his head.
"That's the gist of it but don't think much about it. With our current strength, we wouldn't be able to do anything. We should just keep our focus on increasing our strength." Souta said and asked, "Did you also received the blessing of the god of hunt?"
"Yes, knowledge about it was directly poured inside my head. It's a strange feeling." Isabella said while looking down at her body.
"Mmm..." Souta nodded and he didn't ask about the legacy of the god of hunt. He was sure that Isabella still hasn't understood the essence of it. She just got it so she will have a time to familiarize herself about the benefits of the legacy.
Still, he couldn't help but become curious about the god of hunt's legacy. What sort of ability or skill that she received?
"Don't tell anyone about this, Isabella," Souta said to her with a grave expression.
"Yes." Isabella nodded her head.
"God's legacy isn't something that everyone should know. People would bother you if they learned about it. The worse scenario is that they will kidnap you just to know what sort of things you received from a god." Souta said to her.
"Isabella...?"
He then noticed that something was wrong with Isabella. Her body was swaying left and right. It seems that she was going to fall at any moment.
He immediately supported her body and asked, "Isabella, is there something wrong?"
"Souta... I feel dizzy... I don't..." Isabella hadn't even managed to complete her sentence before she fainted.
"Isabella! Isabella!"
Souta placed his palm on her forehead and felt heat coming from her body. Her temperature was higher than normal. He didn't know what's happening to her.
'It must be the side effect of the blessing and legacy... Her power level is too low and it couldn't perfectly handle the power of a god so this happened. It's normal and not everyone could receive the blessing of a god. I'm surprised that you took it like it's nothing.' Saya's voice sounded in his mind.
