Chapter 235 - How about letting me fight all of them?

Alea was looking at the monster tide with a frown on her face. She was thinking if the monster before was connected to this monster tide.

She met Bryan and the rest when dozens of second evolution stage monsters were attacking them. She didn't hesitate and help them fend off those monsters. That's how they met.

At that time, she didn't think much about it but now that a monster tide appeared she couldn't help but connect the two incidents.

Their empire detected a clash of two fifth evolution stage monsters. A clash of two powerful monsters shook a part of the forest. That's why the weaker monsters fled away in hurry.

'I still think that there's more to it.' Alea thought as she turned around and entered the palace. Her butler followed her without saying anything.

She will try to investigate what really happened.

...

Souta felt mana flow through his body from his mana pool. It feels good knowing that he had mana flowing in his body.

"Ah~ this feeling... It feels nostalgic." He groaned as he opened and closed his palms enjoying the feeling of mana. More than two weeks had passed ever since he damaged his mana pool. It was frustrating when he couldn't even use his spells.

He already expected this to happen. For Raeshka, fixing his mana pool was a simple thing and it's not worth mentioning. She only fixed his mana pool so that she could watch an entertaining show.

There's no need to get work out and be dramatic in fixing his mana. It was a simple thing to her. She didn't even need his thanks. A goblin corruptor that could use mana was still nothing to the level of the monster lord.

If she didn't fix his mana pool then how could she watch the full power of a monster that knew human and demi skills?

'A simple thing for her but a great thing for me. She didn't even care that she fixed my mana pool.' Souta couldn't help but sigh. "Hays~ what a great disparity..."

There's no need to be dramatic or big fight just for him to restore his mana pool. Raeshka's whim fixed his mana pool. As simple as that.

He then shook his head and focused his attention on the task in front of him. He was about to say something when he heard a familiar sound in his mind.

*Ding!*

[Quest Triggered!]

[Battle of the Second Evolution]: Defeat all the second evolution monsters and become victorious. Show the world that you're the strongest second evolution monster. Unrivaled at your level.

Rewards: 10,000 exp, 6 skill points, and 10 free attribute points

'What a good timing...?' A smile formed on Souta's face. It was already in his plan to show off but to think that he would receive a quest at this moment. This gives him more reason to trash all of his opponents.

Plus, this was the first time he's going to use his newly gained strength. He wasn't going to lie by saying that he wasn't excited to test his strength. In fact, he was eager to test his strength at this moment more than anything. He already upgraded his class before but he didn't have a chance to test his test. This leaves his frustrated before.

'These monsters only worth 6 skill points...? Too bad, that's quite disappointing considering that they are the strongest second evolution stage monsters in this place.' Souta thought as the grin on his face grew wider.

"Who wants to go first and fight this goblin?" Raeshka asked as she glanced at her subordinates.

The higher rank monsters were also present. They were curious about the second evolution stage goblin that piqued the attention of their lord. All of them have the same question in their mind. How did this lower rank creature gain the interest of their lord? They wanted to find the answer to this question.

"I will go first." A three-meter tall black orc stepped forward. The black orc was holding a massive butcher knife. He was one of the strongest second evolution orcs in this place.

"Fine. If you defeat him I'll fulfill one of your wishes." Raeshka nodded and said to the black orc in a plain tone. She then turned her head and looked at one of her higher rank subordinates. "Don't let anyone die in my watch."

A fourth evolution monster called Elder Treant bowed at her. Elder Treant was a powerful monster that has the characteristics of a tree. The only difference was that a treant could bleed with crimson color blood like any other monster.

The treant of this world shook the knowledge of the players of the treant. They bashed the developer for not staying true to their knowledge of treant and created their own treant. What they didn't know was that the treant they knew was just fake.

Souta just glanced at the Elder Treant. With this level of monster guarding the battle, he knew that even if he tried to kill his opponents he would still fail because of this Elder Treant.

The Black Orc entered the stage and stood in front of Souta. He tightly gripped the massive butcher knife in his hand. Pressure started the leak out of his body.

'This one is a strong monster... If I didn't have a mana I would have a problem dealing with this one using my physical strength.' Souta thought while observing the black orc ten meters away from him.

"You can start fighting... I'm getting bored here." Raeshka said with a bored expression.

Boom!

A fierce aura suddenly burst out of the black orc's body. He dashed towards Souta at high speed. He was excited to defeat Souta and get the favor of his lord.

Swoosh!

He arrived in front of Souta and swung the butcher knife in front of Souta.

The Elder Treant who was watching the battle heightened his senses. If Souta couldn't block the attack then he would save Souta. For him, a fourth evolution monster, the movement of a lower existence was too slow in his eyes.

Souta shifted his body to the side as the butcher knife passed beside him. He avoided it at hair's length before clenching his fist and he gathered his mana in his fist.

Bang!

He threw a punch on the side of the black orc and it disrupted the form of the orc. This punch was stronger than his normal punch as he added his mana in his fist.

"Ah~ I missed this feeling. Punching someone with mana coating my fist." Souta muttered with a grin on his face.

Roar!

The black orc roared and his muscles bulge out of his body. He used his trait skill [Dominant Body] that strengthened his muscles by three-fold.

"It will not work against me," Souta muttered as the ground turned black and tentacles rose from the ground.

Swoosh!

The tentacles moved quickly and it strangled the body of the black orc. The black orc didn't expect this at all. He tried to break free from the tentacles around his body but no matter how much he tried he couldn't break away.

Souta's [Shadow Bind] spell could even bind a third evolution monster for a few seconds so how could a second evolution monster break free from this spell easily.

"You lose," Souta said as the tentacles around the black orc tightened. He then walked forward and stopped in front of the black orc on the ground.

He raised one of his feet and stomped the head of the black orc. He knocked out the black orc and looked at every second evolution stage monster.

"Oh!? That's not a trait skill or trait of a goblin corruptor. That's a spell of the humans and demis." Raeshka said after she saw the black tentacles around the body of the black orc.

Monsters fought using their traits and trait skills but Souta was different from them. He was a monster that was using the spells and skills of the humans and demi-humans.

'If Souta continued to evolve and become a higher existence while practicing the spells and skills of humans... Then... In the future, he would become a terrifying existence much worse than a monster lord.' Raeshka thought while looking at Souta with a deep gaze.

There were humans and demi who become powerful with the use of spells and skills. If Souta managed to reach their level while evolving then in the future he would become a powerful existence.

There's a possibility that he would become stronger than her.

Souta turned his head to Raeshka and asked, "You want me to show my full potential, right? Then, how about letting me fight all of them at the same time? I think that you'll like my performance."

"Oh? Are you sure about it?" A smile appeared on Raeshka's face as she asked Souta. She didn't expect that Souta would request to fight all the second evolution monster at the same time. Well, she wouldn't decline him as she found his suggestion an interesting one. It would make this battle more entertaining.

"Of course, I also wanted to test my strength against them," Souta said to the second evolution monsters as he rested his feet on the body of the black orc. He glanced at Raeshka and added, "One more thing. I'll add Yuko into my group. I want her to experience fighting the monsters in this place."

"Sure, fight them to your heart's content. As long as it would entertain me then it's good." Raeshka said as she leaned her back on her chair. Things were getting interesting.
