The Evolution of a Goblin to the Peak

The God's Continent descended into chaos in just a week. News of the events unfolding across the continents spread like wildfire.

The Ruler of Gluttony launched an attack on Fengdu Land. After establishing a fort there, he vanished, and no one knew his current whereabouts. The forces of Fengdu Land clashed with the Gluttony Army that Esquin had brought with him.

Meanwhile, the entire three theaters collapsed when an ancient Monster Lord emerged. Several Gods arrived to fight the Monster Lord, but nearly ninety percent of the warriors present in the theaters perished in the battle.

The death toll was staggering.

This was only the beginning of the chaotic situation.

On the third day, various small terrorist organizations launched attacks, destroying tens of thousands of cities in the process. This action spread fear throughout the continent.

By the fourth day, many individuals had made a name for themselves by stopping the experts attempting to seize control of cities and countries.

On the fifth day, large organizations with the backing of Gods made their move, destroying several of the major countries. These organizations were on the same level as the Black Blood Cult, which had previously tried to destroy the theaters, but its Cult Leader had been slain by the God of the Sea, Amanikable.

On the sixth day, tensions between the Angel Faction and the Fallen Angel Faction reached a boiling point. While there were small skirmishes, the conflict had yet to escalate to a God- level confrontation. It was also on this day that the Gluttony appeared. He surfaced in a Large Country on the eastern edge of the continent, eliminating the Gods of that country before vanishing once more.

"So, that's what happened..." Souta murmured, massaging his temples.

He had just woken up from a long slumber following the tragedy in Ekatoe City. To his surprise, he found himself in a room at Athen's Champion, within the Champion's Den.

He frowned as he looked outside.

Eilish was dead.

It was real.

He hadn't been able to save her.

Souta clenched his fists tightly, blood dripping onto the floor.

The door creaked open, and a familiar figure entered the room. It was Grain Leader Carmel. Carmel smiled as he took a seat in the vacant chair. "How are you?" he asked.

"I'm fine. It's just... there's a lot on my mind," Souta replied.

"I've heard about what happened," Carmel said, his expression turning serious. "You're lucky you managed to wake up. Otherwise, you'd be completely subjugated. I heard about how you lost control and almost triggered a monster tide. The higher-ups have already put you on the watchlist. If you lose control again and cause a monster tide, then, as the source of it, the warriors will deal with you without mercy."

"I know... It's better to kill me if that happens. I don't want to kill my people again," Souta sighed.

"The situation with the Gluttony Army is even worse now. Three Heroes of Lord Ares have perished on the battlefield. Also, in the three theaters, I've heard that Lord Odin is preparing to unleash the World Wolf Fenrir to confront the ancient Monster Lord," Carmel said in a low voice.

"Once that happens, it'll be a dead zone for mortals. The warriors have been ordered to evacuate everyone near the three theaters. No mortals will survive that battle."

"And what happened to my city?" Souta asked, glancing at Carmel.

"Some low-rank warriors were dispatched to assist your people in rebuilding the city. It's only been a week, so I doubt it's anywhere near its previous state," Carmel replied.

"I understand," Souta nodded.

Two days passed in the blink of an eye.

Souta stayed in the room, not leaving at all. It was only now that he was allowed to step out. He had been locked up because the higher-ups weren't sure if he had fully regained his right state of mind. They had observed him for the past two days to ensure his mind had returned to normal without any issues.

Since Souta had remained calm and caused no trouble while locked up, he was finally allowed to leave.

Meanwhile, the outside world remained embroiled in chaotic battles.

What Grain Leader Carmel had mentioned earlier had come to pass: the World Wolf Fenrir was unleashed in the three theaters to confront the ancient Monster Lord.

Souta stretched his arms as he walked out of his room. To his surprise, he found someone waiting for him outside.

"You're here," he said.

"Yeah," came the reply.

The person waiting for him was Alice. Upon hearing that he had woken up, she rushed over, but she had been told not to disturb him until he was allowed to leave. So, she had simply waited outside without bothering him.

Souta walked beside Alice and glanced at her face. In a low voice, he said, "Thank you..." Alice shook her head, dismissing his gratitude. "It's nothing. I just did what I had to do." She glanced at him, then took the sword hanging at her waist and handed it to him. "Here, take this. She's the one who helped me."

Souta raised an eyebrow as he accepted the vajra sword.

The two of them left the Champion's Den. Alice didn't bring up his past or any heavy topics. She knew he had just woken up and needed some time to rest. Even though he was back at full strength, his mentality was another matter entirely.

Soon, the two of them arrived in the ruined Ekatoe City.

Souta saw that the city was beginning to recover, but it was still a long way from its former state. Tens of thousands had died in the attack, and many facilities had been destroyed in the

Battle.

The first thing Souta did after returning was visit Eilish's grave. To his surprise, Eilan was already there, staring at the tombstone with a blank expression on his face.

Souta stood beside him and stared at the stone as well. After a long silence, he finally asked,

"Have you fully recovered your memory?"

Eilan shook his head.

Souta glanced at him from the side.

Eilan continued staring at the tombstone. After a few moments, he spoke softly, "I only knew her for a short time, but... it feels heavy, seeing her cold body. I can't stop it. I know she's my sister, but I can't remember the time I spent with her."

"You're confused," Souta said quietly. "You don't have memories of the time you spent with her, yet you stand here, grieving in front of her grave. All you need to do is hold onto that feeling and use it."

It was ironic, those words coming from him-after all, he had lost himself when he watched her take her last breath.

Souta shook his head, then turned and left Eilan alone.

The next day, Souta went to check on the monsters' condition. He had heard that they were the most affected when he lost control and nearly triggered a monster tide.

Kessa was fine now. Because she had been affected, Arden had managed to escape; otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to leave the city.

Doranjan and the others were doing well, too. Some monsters had been consumed and started attacking their own allies, but those monsters were already slain. The same fate would have

Befallen Souta if Alice hadn't managed to pull him out.

"I'm fine now..." Souta murmured, patting Yuko's head.

Alice appeared and approached them, her gaze shifting to Yuko as she asked, "How are they?"

"They're fine. It seems there are no side effects for now," Souta replied.

"Then that's good."

Souta then asked, "How are things in Hall Plains? Any news from the Dragon Council?"

"They've divided their forces and quelled the unrest in the land. Although there have been some casualties, the situation didn't escalate further. The Dragon Council still maintains control over the land. If we fail to defeat the invaders soon, Hall Plains will descend into chaos. But, overall, the Dragon Council is doing well."

Alice slowly explained to him what had happened in Hall Plains while he was unconscious. The Dragon Council had been strengthening their forces. The Flaem Clan had taken control of a significant portion of land in the southern area of Hall Plains. The Dragon Council did not interfere, recognizing the Flaem Clan's powerful military might.

The former clan leader, Erkigal, was a powerhouse at the Hero rank, and the current clan

Leader was at the peak of SSS rank. Hono was on the verge of reaching the coveted Hero rank. She just needed a small push and would achieve it in no time, especially since she had already

Been at the Sixth Shackle for quite a while.

"However, there's a problem," Alice said.

Souta raised an eyebrow, glancing at her with a questioning look.

"I mean, there's no immediate problem in Hall Plains, but one is approaching," Alice

Explained.

"What is it?" Souta asked.

"The Obsidian Desert. All the top forces there have collapsed. We can't contact the Palleo Kingdom, and the statuses of Princess Iris and Prince Servon are unknown."
