The Evolution of a Goblin to the Peak
chapter-599

The chains on the monster's huge body fell to the ground causing a loud metallic sound.

Boom!

In the next moment, the monster roared as a powerful wave of best feram swept out in the entire colosseum.

The audience was shocked as no one expected that the organizer of the colosseum would send out a third evolution monster.

"For the final touch! Our main character here will fight a powerful monster called Grim Rock! Will they entertain us or not? Everyone place your bet!!"

The organizer said in a loud voice while opening his arms widely.

"OHHHHH!!!"

The audience shouted in excitement.

Eztein was wounded and exhausted so it would be a good match for a third evolution monster. This match should be entertaining for them.

Eztein simply watched them with a blank expression. Everyone was underestimating him. Even though he was injured and cursed, the mastermind behind this really thought that he couldn't fight a third evolution monster.

"Wrong..."

He muttered in a low voice and under everyone's eyes, his body inflated as several layers of flesh covered him like an armor.

"Ah, it feels good. It's been six days since I've used the ability of my parasite so I feel refreshed."

He smiled as he turned his eyes on the monster in front of him.

Eztein was suppressing his parasite's ability so that his wounds wouldn't recover. It was all to fool everyone so that they think that he didn't have that kind of ability.

A week ago, he was sure that no one saw him when he recovered his severed arm.

It's not that he didn't use the power of parasite. He just limited the power of parasites in the past week or else he would collapse from the torture and the curse in his body.

Especially, the curse. It was hard to suppress it with his mana alone. He wouldn't last if he didn't have the parasite. The curse was slowly corrupting him while the parasite was regenerating the corrupted parts bit by bit.

"Are you surprised everyone?"

Eztein asked as his mana slowly covered his body. He tightened his fist and quickly charged at Grim Rock.

Boom!

Souta smiled when he saw this. Defeating Grim Rock wouldn't be a problem for Eztein anymore.

Grim Rock was already insane and its intelligence became low because of the constant torture its experience in the past. It was like a human with a mental problem.

"Just what did they do to that Grim Rock?"

Souta muttered as he could feel boundless hatred from that monster. He would become like that if he couldn't control his emotion.

"Souta," Alice called his name.

Souta turned his head and his brows quickly narrowed down.

"Have you felt it?" Alice asked.

Souta nodded as he turned his head from the side. He could feel several fluctuations of curses around them.

What they didn't know was that hundreds of people already died from the curse while they were watching the battle on the colosseum.

People were already panicking across the entire dukedom.

"It seems that something is happening while we are busy here," Alice said.

"I will go out. You will stay here, Alice." Souta said before he stood up and left.

Alice watched his back before she turned his attention on Eztein's battle.

The battle was already in Eztein's favor and a lot of people didn't like what they were seeing.

Hmm?

Alice quickly looked up and saw a barrier enveloping the whole colosseum.

"They are going to move...!!"

The audience had no idea about what was happening. They were too focused on the battle before their eyes.

Alice quickly flew up leaving words, "Eztein, I'll leave everything to you here!"

Eztein paused when he heard Alice's voice. He looked up and said, "Fine, I'm always doing the hard work. I'm used to it."

The audience also heard Alice's voice and it was at this moment that they noticed the barrier enclosing above them.

"What's that?!"

"Is that a barrier?!"

"What for?!"

...

Souta was standing on top of a five-storey building looking down at a corpse of a young girl on the ground.

"The curse spread today and the culprit didn't even try to suppress it."

He muttered as he could feel that even he was affected by the curse.

Dozens of people were collapsing every minute because of the mysterious curse and the entire dukedom was in chaos.

At this point, no one could save them until he took out the culprit behind these curses.

'You should carefully observe the things around you and you will find a clue. I know you are capable of that.' Saya's voice sounded in his mind.

Souta nodded before his eyes adjusted. His perception was heightened to the limit. It let him see the line between curses letting him see who's going to collapse next.

But it wasn't enough...

Slowly, he couldn't hear anything. He couldn't even smell anything. He closed all of his senses except for his eyes. The limit of his eyes reached a new height.

"This is..."

He marveled scenery before him but he quickly returned.

"I found it..."

The corners of his mouth slowly curved upwards. Suddenly, he looked at the sky above him.

"Alice... What she's doing there? Did she leave Eztein alone?"

Souta tilted his head as he wondered. His energy burst from his body as he launched himself at her like a rocket.

Swoosh!!

Alice's eyes were widely opened as she stared at the entire dukedom in shock from above.

Who would have thought that this was going to happen? At this rate, if no one stopped this, every people would die from the curse. It would leave nothing alive and it would even affect people with higher power levels like her.

Hmm...?

She moved her eyes as she felt someone flying towards her. When she saw that it was Souta, she lowered her guard.

She didn't think that it was fake as she knew that no one could perfectly copy Souta. Even if they copy his appearance, no humans or demis could use best feram like monsters.

"What are you doing here?" Souta asked.

"I decided to leave because the culprits are moving. They enclosed the colosseum with a barrier and I made a quick decision that if both of me and Eztein were locked inside, it would be hard to move in the city." Alice explained.

"I see... I know that you realize that we are dealing with an organization. The culprit isn't alone so do you think Eztein can handle the colosseum alone?"

"Yeah, I think the colosseum is just a trap to lock the three of us. It would be better if one of us stayed there while the two of us deal with the happenings in the city."

"Good," Souta smirked.

"Forget about that for now. How about you look at the city in our current position?" Alice pointed down with her index finger.

"I already...?" A shocked expression appeared on Souta's face after he look down. "This is... A giant magic circle is active in the entire dukedom!"

It's true that Souta knew a lot of spells but he didn't know every spell in the whole world. The only person who was capable of that was the Grimoire of Spell.

"There are several people on each corner of the spell. I think they are supplying energy to the spell to keep it active." Alice looked at him and asked, "Should we go and eliminate them?"

"No, I already knew the source of it. I'll just go and find it. Your job is to distract them." Souta said.

"That fast?! You already found the source..."

"Yeah, it's nothing." Souta shrugged his shoulder.

"Fine, I'll go now and eliminate them." Alice sighed at Souta's efficiency.

"Good, then let's go now."

Souta launched himself downward at high speed.

Swoosh!!

At the same time, dozens of people wearing dark green cloaks appeared around him. Souta didn't have a choice but to stop and looked at these people.

These people had a blank expressions on their faces and they were muttering strange language. It seems that they weren't here to communicate with him.

"As expected... They are watching my movements." He muttered to himself. He couldn't help but glance at Alice who was still above him.

Alice saw his glance. She already knew what he was asking for her.

"Okay, fine, I'll deal with them."

A powerful wave of mana burst from her body as she launched herself towards the group of people.

Boom!!!

A huge explosion occurred in the sky causing the citizens to pause and look up. This explosion only added fear to them as they don't have any idea what was really happening in their city.

Souta came out of the smoke as he continued heading to the ground. When he was closed on the ground he pulled out the vajra sword from its sheath.

Ohm!

A huge amount of best feram gathered on its blade.

He slashed it splitting the entire land in half.

...

Souta landed on the tomb of the Creep Lord once again. It was his second time coming here.

"Really nice, why I haven't discovered at that time that the source of the curse is in this place?"

The cursed energy in this place was several times higher than last time. He could even feel that the curse that he suppressed in his body using his best feram was pulsating. It was as if it was trying to devour him desperately.

"Know your place! Lower energy!"

Souta narrowed his eyes as his best feram blooded the entire tomb causing it to shake several times.

"It's no use, using only curse energy towards me, a monster, wouldn't let you devour me. So why don't you show yourself?"
