[1-200] THE EVOLUTION OF A GOBLIN TO THE PEAK

Chapter 143 - Chain Quest: Souta vs. Gregory (5)

"The city lord will be forced to make a move if this continued." Ursus nodded and said.

"I will minimize the aftershock of their attacks. I need to clean the mess that my students made." Bargan said before he vanished into thin air.

"One of the most powerful people of the Hebrei Kingdom..." Ursus muttered as he turned his head and looked at the huge explosion. "Still... How did that Souta use [Bestrou]? Even though he has the beast feram in his body, it still hard to use it. There's no record of that in the past era."

...

The whole city turned bright and the darkness disappeared. Even the dark sky lit up because of the explosion.

Alice and the rest stopped when the ground shook heavily. It was followed by a very loud booming sound. Then, the whole area turned bright as if a sun shone on the sky.

Even though it's night, the whole city was as bright as noon.

Boom!!

Alice and the rest turned their head and saw the unbelievable scene in front of them.

"How could Souta fought on that scale?!" Joshua muttered in disbelief. The scale of the battle was several times higher than theirs.

"Souta..." Lumilia whispered Souta's name with a concerned look on her face.

She wasn't stunned at the scale of battles because she witnessed the power of the commandments. She saw how a single spell destroyed the Desolate Woods and the villages near it. Even that unknown power that took the life force of every living creature in the Desolate Woods was terrifying.

There's a saying that if a person saw the power of the Bringer of Calamity, their point of view in power scale will greatly change. They would understand that there were people that reached the level where they could obliterate a country on their own.

Alice glanced at Lumilia before she turned her head at the huge explosion.

"I see..."

...

Bargan appeared close to the explosion. He looked at the bright explosion and he squinted his eyes.

The heat waves were of high temperature and the ground continued to tremble nonstop. Everything was being obliterated by the powerful explosion.

"Really, to think that Souta would manage to match a noble head using the power he couldn't properly control..." Bargan smiled wryly before he opened his arms widely.

"Well, let's stop this."

He circulated his magical power inside his body.

Swoosh!!

He made a grabbing motion and the explosion was blocked by something. It didn't pass through Bargan as it was contained by his energy.

It didn't damage anything outside of the battlefield.

"This level of heat is nothing to me. I'm not called Flame Master for nothing." Bargan muttered as he easily contained this level of explosion.

Back in the war against the Melosa Country, he was the man who burned down everything in the outskirts of the Desolate Woods. He literally brought down a small sun at city size and obliterated most of the Melosa Army.

His power was close to God.

"Hmm...?" Bargan then noticed something. He turned his head and smiled. "I see... How loyal..." He said then he aimed his hand at it.

...

After a few moments, the explosion stopped and the whole area was filled with smoke and dust.

The entire ground was wiped out as it became a desolate place. There's no building left after the explosion as all the buildings here were obliterated. Even the rocks and concrete roads turned into a piled of ash.

Cough! Cough!

"Are you okay, Yujin?" Randolf coughed and asked. He couldn't clearly see because of the thick smoke and dust in the surrounding.

"Somehow..." Yujin replied and he created a wind around him to blow the smoke and dust.

"I'm sorry, Yujin." Alophy flew around and apologized to him.

The barrier that they erected before was destroyed. It was shattered by the powerful explosion. The explosion was stronger than they imagined. It was because Bargan contained all of the explosion in this place.

Randolf was forced to asked his guard to assist him. His guard casted a secret barrier around them that lessen the force of the impact when their barrier shattered. They still haven't escaped unscathed from the impact. They received a few bruises on their bodies.

'Thanks, you save me there.' Randolf said in his head.

'It's nothing, master.' A voice replied to him in his head.

"Who won?" Randolf looked up and asked.

Yujin heard Randolf's words so he looked up to see who won the battle. He was also curious about who won the battle.

They waited for a few moments before the wind dispersed the smoke and dust.

The saw Souta who was standing alone on the battlefield. His figure was covered in wounds and both of his arms were burned. He was breathing heavily and there's no bloodstain on his body. He wasn't even sweating.

His sweat and the blood on his body evaporated because of the high temperature. It's also thanks to the high temperature that all of his injuries closed.

"Huff... Huff... Huff..." Souta was gasping and he slowly placed the Vajra sword on its sheath. He reached his limit and he depleted his stamina.

The beast feram inside his body was gone. There's nothing left inside him even mana. He drained all the energy he has in this fight.

"I won... Until I leave this city, I will not go down." Souta muttered as gritted his teeth. He gulped and he felt thirsty. His throat was dry.

'You don't have to worry about your body. If you leave it to me, I'll follow your classmates.' A feminine voice sounded inside his mind.
