[201-400] THE EVOLUTION OF A GOBLIN TO THE PEAK

Chapter 378 - Crisis

Souta could easily overpower B-rank powerhouse on his own. It wasn't a problem to him with his current strength. All his training paid off. Also, it was thanks to the skill [Monster Force] that he got from the Underground King that his stats rose highly.

The entire training ground was silent while watching Souta placed back his sword in its sheath. He defeated all the Master-class Knight of the Gyunar Republic just like that.

For them, he was like a walking disaster that could destroy kingdoms. If words of this got out, different countries would watch his movements. They will try to bring him on their side and if they can't they will be forced to eliminate him.

Countries will work together just to bring him down so that they could sleep peacefully.

"This is..." Janford didn't know what to say anymore. The things that happened today was outside of his expectation.

No, the scale of this grew larger. Souta was an unknown variable which was extremely dangerous.

They had to think about their next move. A meeting about how would they handle people with this much power.

Souta smiled as he walked towards Alice and the rest.

Gyun's party was still in daze. They just couldn't believe what they saw at all. Even Isabella was shocked as her mouth was agape.

"I thought that you're going to make it easy for them," Alice said to him.

"Nope, against three B-rank powerhouses I need to be cautious. If I lowered my guard they would be able to injure me." Souta replied to her as he shrugged his shoulder.

He was right, any B-rank powerhouse had the power to kill him if he lowered his guard. His flesh wasn't that tough to endure a direct hit from a B-rank.

Janford called the other officials. They talked with Alice and Souta before they left the area. They were going to have an emergency meeting and Souta could guess it.

It's wasn't that much, since he defeated the strongest fighters of this country they had to talked about him. What will they do? Or how will they treat him?

There's a chance that they will offer him some high position or benefits. Also, they could assassinate him but that's the least that they would do. They saw his strength so assassins wouldn't be able to do any against him.

Souta, Alice, Isabella, and the Gyun's party went back to their room leaving the four Master-class Knights having a treatment in the training ground. The medicals of the palace were checking their condition.

In their room, Souta looked at Alice and said, "Accept their proposal. You'll become a duchess of this country."

Alice turned to him and asked, "Why?"

"You already know about it. If you become a duchess you'll slowly form connections here and find the things that we wanted." He said to her.

"I see..." Alice nodded at his words. The information about this world and if there's a chance that they could go back to Imperium. She then asked, "Then, what are you going to do? I'm sure that you're not going to leave everything to me, right?"

"Me? I'm going to bring Isabella and Yuko with me. I found something interesting that could entertain me. Also, if you failed to find the information, I could probably find it." Souta replied to her as he glanced at Isabella.

"I-I'm going with you...?" Isabella looked at Souta with a confused expression.

"Yes, you're going with me. Then," He nodded and glanced at the Gyun's party before he said, "You guys decided to follow us, right? I need you to stay here and become Alice's retainer. She could also teach you some skills to boost your strength. At the moment, you guys can't do anything."
