The Evolution of a Goblin to the Peak

Hummmmmm!

The sound of the horn echoed throughout the whole of District 3. This signal meant that the enemies were coming.

The archers poured their mana into their arrows before shooting it towards the area outside district three.

Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!

The officers of the Seven Deadly Sins saw this and created a barrier around them to block the arrows.

Countless arrows rained down on the field, and the fighters watched this with a grave expression. They knew that they were going to fight these people after they passed through the arrows and spells.

Yujin and Alice were observing this while preparing themselves for the fight. The other fighters were hiding in the houses, waiting for the enemies to come.

"Two hundred meters..." Yujin muttered as he silently channeled his mana into his sword.

B-rank powerhouses like him and Alice were on the frontlines. Their strength was needed to hold back this powerful organization.

Alice glanced at him and asked, "Yuko is going to help us, right?"

"Yes, Lumilia said that she would let Yuko help us under Souta's order." Yujin nodded.

After that, the mages charged their mana and launched countless spells. Various spells rained down on the Seven Deadly Sins, and it caused several explosions that shook the entire area.

Boom! Boom!

Smoke covered the field, but the mages and archers didn't stop at all. They continued to launch their arrows and spells. They were bombarding everyone.

After a few moments, several people came out of the smoke. They were emitting a heavy aura around them as they charged towards District 3. They were the four- and five-circle officers of the Seven Deadly Sins.

One hundred meters...

It was then that the defensive mechanism activated. An array of spells appeared above the outskirts of district three.

Lightning crackled around, and it tried to kill the officers of the Seven Deadly Sins. It was followed by a sea of flames and hailstorms.

Boom!

Several figures flashed towards the defensive mechanism and pierced it. It was so fast that the mechanism didn't have a chance to launch an attack on these people.

"They are here..." Lumilia said while watching the seven people enter District Three with a gloomy look.

These seven were the six circle officers of the Seven Deadly Sins. They were at the level of people who attacked the Ibish village.

The real challenge starts here... Everything will start at this moment. If they could hold these people down, they could win; if not, then all of them will die.

The six-circle officers were releasing an aura that scared low-ranking fighters on the frontlines. They were trembling as they knew that those people in the sky could easily end them.

They pushed themselves and drank potions that could temporarily increase their overall stats.

After a few moments, all the B-rank fighters burst out of the houses and charged towards the six-circle officers.

Boom! Boom!

"Use our number to fight these people," Lumilia said to her subordinate at the side. "Ten people at one enemy and use wheel formation so that we could last longer. Also, tell the support to buff our ally, and healers should cast healing spells on the B-rank fighter without stopping."

The subordinate bowed before she left to pass her orders.

The fierce battle started in the sky. Shockwaves were sweeping out every second.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Five-circle and below officers arrived at district three after a few minutes. All the fighters below B-rank charged and clashed with the forces of the Seven Deadly Sins.

...

"If you didn't use that form, then you would be dead by now," Randolf said while looking down at Souta.

Huff... Huff...

Souta has a large cut on his chest. Blood was flowing out of him nonstop. He realized that Randolf was much stronger than he had shown in the past. No wonder he could keep Gregory all by himself for a few minutes.

'Thanks, Saya...' He said it inwardly. If Saya didn't possess his body at that time, he wouldn't be standing in this place.

'Don't underestimate this man. He's several times stronger than you,' Saya said to him in a serious tone.

[Possession] was activated as Saya forcefully used it to save him. So his current stats are stronger than before. He wouldn't be able to fight Randolf in his base form, so he didn't need to cancel the [Possession] skill.

He had to use everything that he got to defeat this man in front of him, starting with his basic skills.

[Cat's Speed]!

[Triple Muscle Strengthening]!

[Agility Boost]!

[Strength Boost]!

Souta felt his power getting stronger every second. He pulled out his sword and poured his mana into it.

'I'll try my best to support you. Just leave your body open to me so that I can control you in dangerous situations,' Saya said to him.

'I understand.' He replied to her while looking at Randolf.

"Are you finished preparing? I want to fight you in your strongest form, so use all of your skills." Randolf said as a faint smile appeared on his face.

Souta frowned before he stepped forward, and the ground turned black. Several black tentacles rose, and it pointed at Randolf. Then, a black cloak formed around Souta along with the ten gravitational balls.

[Shadow Bind]!

[Shadow Cloak]!

[Gravitational Ball]!

He took another step, and a black aura oozed out of his body. It mixed with the red aura of Saya, forming a stronger aura.

[Night Overlord's Aura]!

All his darkness-attribute spells and combat arts' effectiveness will increase by fifteen percent. Also, his stats will increase by twenty percent if it is nighttime. Unfortunately, it was noon, so he couldn't use the full strength of this skill.

Then, the black mist started to spread out in the surrounding area.

[Dark Cloud Hunting]!

He knew that blocking Randolf's vision wouldn't work, but the effect that he wanted from this spell was to decrease Randolf's speed and power. Also, the added stats for him.

He was at his peak form at this level.

"Hahaha, let's start the battle." Randolf laughed and pounced on Souta. He slashed the blade of mana in his hands towards Souta.

Swoosh!

Souta's eyes constricted as he found that Randolf was already in front of him. He quickly moved his hand and parried the blade using the Vajra sword.

Clang!

...

Bryan was standing in front of Cluster while looking at the huge man wearing a red robe.

The man was Kin, the comrade of Kan, who fought Brando in the red light district.

Kin smiled and removed his mask. He revealed his face to Bryan and Cluster while saying, "Give that little girl to me, and I wouldn't harm you."

"No, I will not give her to you. I will protect Cluster." Bryan replied as he stepped back, blocking Kin's vision of Cluster.

"I really don't want to fight because of my class, but I guess I have no choice." Kin sighed, and he walked forward. His pace was increasing every second.

Bryan gritted his teeth, and he gathered his mana in his fist. He wanted to enjoy fighting this guy, but his priority right now was Cluster. Protecting her comes first before his enjoyment.

Swoosh!

Kin arrived in front of him and threw his left fist at his face.

Bryan pushed Cluster away from him before shifting his body to the side to avoid his opponent's punch.

Swoosh!

Kin's punch was so sharp that it cut his cheeks, even though it only grazed him.

"Hehe~ you're quite something, brat!" Kin laughed lightly before he threw several punches.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

Bryan quickly moved his hand to block the punches, but some of it still managed to slip in and land on his body and face.

Flames appeared around his fist, and he threw it at Kin's stomach.

[Blazing Strike]!

Kin flew and crashed into the building.

Bang!

He glanced at Cluster and said, "Run away, go to the building, and tell everyone what happened here. I'm sure that Souta and the rest will protect you."

He knew that his attack didn't have that much effect on his opponent's tough body.

"Brother Bryan..." Cluster looked at Bryan with a pale expression. She understood what was happening. These people finally found her in this city.

She had to go and leave, but she couldn't move her body. No, her body wouldn't listen to her. It wanted to stay and help Bryan even knowing that it was futile.

Boom!

The front of the building exploded, and Kin walked out of the smoke. He still had that smile on his face. In fact, his smile only grew wider.

"Go, Cluster!" Bryan shouted as he focused his eyes on the opponent's movements. He was worried that Cluster might get caught up in the aftershocks of their battle.

"What about you, Brother Bryan?" Cluster asked while trembling. She was holding the stuffed toy that Brando bought for her.

"It's no use. You wouldn't be able to escape against me." Kin spoke as he stepped forward. "After all. I'm an A-rank Berserker, and you are only a B-rank. There's no way that you could fight against me."

At the same time, liquefied mana burst out of his body, flooding the entire area.
