The Evolution of a Goblin to the Peak
chapter-754

"This... As expected there's a strong organization backing him." Franklin smirked as he pushed himself out of the ground.

Then he dashed through the field as various spells were launched. Explosions erupted but Franklin swiftly avoided the spells from his enemy.

He waved his hand and powerful blade energy was fired at his enemies. When it was about to land, a golden palm appeared once again and crushed the energy blade effortlessly.

Franklin could defeat Golden Palm in a one-on-one battle but if Golden Palm had various helpers then it would be a different matter. He wasn't confident that he could capture that guy plus there was an even stronger person here.

The one above. That person was standing in the middle of the clouds looking down at the masses as if they were ants.

'That guy is giving me goosebumps! I want to fight him but I have to report this to Souta!' Franklin said inwardly. He couldn't help but glance at the person who was suspended on the clouds.

A triangle with a finger and a dragon coiling around it.

He could see that tattoo on the palm of that person. A different organization? He fought the Golden Palm guy several times and he hasn't seen that tattoo. Maybe, a personal tattoo. At the very least it was a clue.

Now that he had a clue, he should get out of this place as soon as possible.

Suddenly, a huge pressure bore down pressing Franklin to the ground.

"Shit!" Franklin widened his eyes.

BAM!!

...

Mince Hand was located at Beinu City in Spring Land. Spring Land, Mine Valley, and Earthen Woods. These three regions formed a triangular shape with Mine Valley at the back and the other two at the front of the central region.

At this time, the disciples of the Mince Hand were running back and forth. The commotion caused Souta to pause his training.

"What's happening?"

Souta walked outside and saw the seriousness on the face of his fellow disciple. He could feel the tense atmosphere and some of the faces that he saw were pale.

The nervousness was high.

Souta grabbed the shoulders of one of the disciples. He didn't know what was happening but he had an idea judging from the seriousness on their faces.

"You don't know?! The Hundred Face Alliance is going to war with two overlords at the same time!!" The disciple said and quickly left.

"What?!" Souta was rooted in his position. He was quite stunned at this sudden event but after a careful thought, this should be within his expectations.

Various organizations were recruiting to strengthen their military might to fight each other. Even the Heiro Kingdom, the strongest in Spring Land, lost several cities to different organizations.

The entire Spring Land was chaotic. Souta didn't notice it because he was always training in his residence or in the library researching the founding of Mince Hand.

Nevertheless, it was a fact that the alliance the Mince Hand was part of was going to fight two overlords. The organization that controlled an entire city was called Overlord. Ekatoe City had various organizations but Astros was the overlord organization.

Even the members of the Dragon Council were the leaders of an overlord organization in their respective cities.

The only difference was that some of the overlords were strong and some were weak. The overlord of White Line City was an example of it as it needed to depend on the power of the Wingless Crow.

Third Head's army was strong and even Souta wouldn't underestimate the people under her wings. That sleepy girl was strong. He could see that she was holding back when she was fighting the leader of Wingless Crow. No, she was probably too lazy to fight using her full power.

"So I'm going to fight, huh?"

Souta looked over. He could sense that the school had tightened its security. Well, it's just the beginning phase of war so the scale shouldn't be high. It would probably start from the D-rank and C-rank.

Souta shook his head and smiled. He placed both of his hands in his pocket before he strode forward.

"This should relieve my boredom. My emotion is getting harder and harder to control so I should vent out my urges to kill in the upcoming battle."

He arrived at the area of the inner disciples. He saw that most of them were in front of their teachers, waiting for the commands. These disciples were mostly at initial B-rank. A few of them were at intermediate and high levels.

If they were going to fight an overlord organization, the Mince Hand was going to lose for sure. Even the Shimpan Family, who controlled the Ekatoe City before the Astros, had three S-ranks and several dozens of A-ranks. Surely, the Mince Hand would suffer a devastating loss if they were alone.

Souta saw a familiar figure in the corner of his eye. He walked over and called the person. "Senior Sister!"

Heili turned her head when she heard a familiar voice. She saw Souta approaching her leisurely. Leisure? In this time of crisis. She couldn't help but smile wryly at her Junior Brother's attitude.

"Junior Brother, aren't you nervous? We're going to fight an overlord." sighed Heili.

"Don't be mistaken. I'm nervous, Senior Sister. It's just that I'm an expert in hiding this type of emotion." Souta flashed a bright smile.

Heili sighed once again. She pinched the bridge of her nose and didn't know what advice she could give to her junior.

"Oh, you've improved once again, senior." Souta appraised as he noticed the fluctuations of Heili's aura.

She had grown stronger. Her body and energy level would reach the prerequisite level to liquefy the mana soon. She advanced to intermediate B-rank.

"You can tell?!" Heili was surprised that he could see through her strength.

"Yeah." Souta nodded.

"Junior Sister." A manly voice sounded.

Souta and Heili turned their heads and saw a white-haired youth wearing a black vest. A pair of swords were hanging on his waist.

"Oh, Senior Brother Neiso!" Heili greeted the white-haired youth politely.

"This..." Souta raised his eyebrows with interest. He didn't expect that he would find a peak B-rank student in this place.

"Junior Brother, this is Senior Brother Neiso, one of the Core Disciple of our school." Heili introduced the youth to Souta.

Neiso just glance at Souta before he turned back his attention to Heili.

Souta pursed his lips seeing Neiso's reaction. This guy was a Core Disciple and to become a Core Disciple, Souta had to challenge and defeat one of them. After he reached the Fifth Stage, he would take down this proud guy.

'I wonder what will be his reaction at that time...'

Souta grinned inwardly.

He shook his head and didn't bother them anymore. He walked to the front and listened to the words of the teachers.

Their opponent this time was the Green Vine Pavilion from Ardous City and the Lifeless Hall from Eilu City.

Souta realized that these two overlords were the scapegoat of the Murder Society after they attack the Hundred Face Alliance. Well, Souta was there and eliminated the Murder Society, but he let them continue their plan to blame the two overlords.

'It doesn't even matter. I just want to calm down my urges...' Souta's eyes turned frosty. He was having a hard time focusing on training when he had emotional instability.

Mince Hand was going to lend a helping hand to fight these two overlords. Of course, all the members of the alliance were going to send their forces.

The teachers chose several groups of disciples. Two Core Disciples, fifty Inner Disciples, and one hundred Outer Disciples. Souta volunteered himself as he wanted to let off some steam.

At his current level, this scale of battle was a child play in front of his eyes.

On the next day, the group departed. They went straight to the Ardous City where the Green Vine Pavilion resides. It took them six hours of travel before they arrived at the ground base five kilometers away from the city.

The battle had started already. The soldiers of Green Vine Pavilion were confronting anyone who approached the city wall. They simply attacked without saying anything.

It was madness.

In return, the Hundred Face Alliance, sent hundreds of C-rank to advance forward. Various battles in different directions were currently ongoing.

Souta, with his [Crimson Perception], could feel that there was a total of one thousand seven hundred ninety nine people in the woods right now. They were either enemies or part of the Hundred Face Alliance.

Hmm... This is better than I had imagined. Souta raised his eyebrows in delight. He waved his hand and gathered the lingering souls in the surroundings.

He shook his head and turned around. The leader of his group was going to give them some words. It's better for him to listen before he rushed to the battlefield. It's less suspicious that way.

Good.
