The Evolution Of A Goblin To The Peak
Chapter 550 - Witch Clan: Alices Form

The ordinary witches have already evacuated to the edge of the land. They all looked up as they saw several mushrooms of smoke reaching the clouds. The powerful explosions made the children tremble in fear as their parents soothe them saying that everything would be fine.

For them, who were living in peace for so land, a fight of this scale was a horrifying sight to them. They couldn't control their fear and most of them have a pale expressions. They could only pray that after this battle nothing would happen to them or their clan.

The old witches were simply watching the battle with a calm look. They experienced a lot of things in their life and they weren't afraid to die. Their only wish was for their descendants to live tomorrow.

"Is it true that the Clan Leader is trying to kill Lady Amanda?"

"I don't know but I heard Clan Leader say that Lady Amanda's comrades attacked him."

"Clan Leader or Lady Amanda... Each side is fighting and I don't know who's going to win in the end."

"Elder Guan had sided with Lady Amanda while Elder Hanmi's motivation is unknown. It seems that he's not helping Clan Leader's forces directly."

"Oh, god. What is happening to our clan?"

...

The power of the Mana Convergent Bomb was unleashed on the witches above A-rank. They didn't hold back at all in launching a bomb that could wipe out the entire land.

It was a total destruction in the whole forest. The tribes that were living in the forest got caught up in the battle. The fearsome aura of the powerful beings made them retreat. It was shocking for them as no one expected that there would be a large-scale battle in this place.

Thirteen S-rank witches had been knocked down from the Clan Leader's forces. There were only eighteen S-rank witches left to deal with and all of them were injured tanking the bombs.

Aside from the S-rank witches, Clan Leader's forces still had a lot of A-rank and B-rank. All the C-rank witches were gone because of Yenxa's poison. Although their number was fewer, they still had an advantage in terms of individual strength.

Souta's forces managed to keep up with Rowan's forces. He had a total of seven hundred people with different power levels and Yuko and Doranjan brought a total of one hundred twenty monsters with them. Using their numbers and technology, they brought down powerful witches one by one.

They also suffered casualties. More than a hundred people and twenty monsters had already died in the battle.

"Am I already late?"

Amanda had arrived on the battlefield with a tired look on her face. She just came from the battlefield on the other side and was greeted her was worse.

It really became a war.

She knew that Souta had an army. When they were still in the southern continent, she heard Alice say that they were planning on conquering the whole continent in the dark and established a force on this planet.

Also, Souta had already told her that they weren't natives of this planet. They came from a far stronger world with countless powerful beings.

"I already remembered everything... I need to replace them."

She said before she continued to move on the battlefield.

...

"The Divine World really hated monsters with huge potential. Did you come from Demon's Land? I guess not as you wouldn't escape that land with your current power. The demons will take you as their slaves and will kill you once they realized that you had the potential to become a monster lord. Ruin Desolate Land is also a brutal place for monsters. If you've managed to leave the Divine World then you're from Giza Continent or either Vulcan's Ring Continent, Frozen Continent, and Mars Archipelago." Rowan said while ignoring Souta's question.

"How did you know a lot of things from Imperium?" Souta narrowed his eyes.

"People from sub-world are interested in Divine World. Once they've heard of it, they will try to acquire more information regarding it. They couldn't help themselves but want to live in that world." Rowan paused for a moment before he continued, "Did you come here to play a king? Is it because no one can accept you in your homeworld? Did you become tired because you're always a prey in your world? Humans and demis will hunt you so you came here to play a king."

Doranjan, Yuko, and the red dragon listened to his words.

Souta simply narrowed his eyes and said, "I didn't come here intentionally. I just arrived here on an accident."

"Is that so? Then, how do feel about the life here? It's pretty different from Divine World, right? Although people are afraid of monsters, it was still nothing compared to the Divine World where they will massacre monsters. You see the Monster Dungeon in this world. The other organizations didn't care about it as long as they didn't hunt people in large numbers or they didn't interfere in the top organizations' affairs."

"But they are in a war..."

"Yes, and it's because of you, right? Two S-rank agents of the Union Peace had died in the incident in Paultry City. It will settle soon as they will realize that the Monster Dungeon did nothing. I replace it strange that the Monster Dungeon kept saying that they didn't know about it but after I've witnessed your fighting power, I became sure that you're the one that caused the incident. Union Peace is an organization several times larger and stronger than Witch Clan. They had enough power to thoroughly crush you. More than twenty Extinction Realm masters will put their eyes on you."

Rowan looked at Souta's army fighting the other witches.

"This army of yours could only fight the Witch Clan because the two elders aren't helping me. So how could you handle the Union Peace? Also, not only the Union Peace is going to look for you, the Night Watch and Monster Dungeon will hunt you down. Their influence will make the other top organizations move to owe each other. In the end, all the people in this world will hunt you down once again. No one will accept you even your fellow monsters in the Monster Dungeon will kill you. What a pitiful life to live in?"

...

Far away from Rowan, Eilish who was observing the battle heard Rowan's words. She was surprised, "S-So, all of you are from Divine World?! It's a reasonable explanation as no country could produce this technology..."

"Not me, Souta and Alice are the only ones from Imperium. I don't know their story but they wanted to go back there and that's our goal." Torkez, who was beside her, corrected her words. "Also, this technology didn't come from their world. It came from an empire we defeated in the past."

"I-I see... Still, people from Divine World?" Eilish stared at Souta and Alice's figure. Who knows what she was thinking right now.

...

At this moment, Amanda arrived several hundred meters away from Souta and the rest. She saw that everyone was there facing Clan Leader. She needed to talk with them and tell everyone the truth behind this.

"You are wro-" Souta couldn't finish his sentence as Alice interrupted him.

"Shut up!!!" Alice said in a loud voice as she glared at Rowan.

'Eh...?' Souta was stunned as he didn't know why she was angry. He stared at her figure wanting to know the reason.

"Even if no one can accept Souta in Imperium, I'm sure that our friends will accept him. At the very least, I'm one of the people that will accept him." Alice said strongly as she slowly raised her spear and pointed it at Rowan. "Souta, I'm sorry I hid it from you for a long time. I will show you what I am today."

Her aura rose exponentially and the temperature in the atmosphere had decreased. The chilly wind blew in every direction as Alice started to emit a black aura.

She grabbed her wrist and removed her bracelet. After she removed it, her energy level rose once again and it gushed out like a tsunami.

"This is my true form... Limit break!!"

She said as black energy exploded and blocked everyone's vision. The energy was so dense that it felt like they were in the depth of the ocean.

Boom!!

After a few moments, the black energy dissipated and Alice's figure had changed. Her skin turned pure white as if she didn't have blood in her veins. The upper part of her arms up to her hands gradually changed into black. Her nails grew longer and it resembles the claws of violent creatures. There were black fur things on her wrist fluttering like a dancing flame. There was a pair of horns on her head and a blue flame on the center of her forehead. On her back, there was a pair of black wings and a black tail with a sharp tip.

'Demon? And a Heavenly Demon at that...' Saya's voice sounded in Souta's mind. She had reached godhood before but she failed to see through Alice's disguise. What sort of techniques did she use?

'I know that she was hiding her true form ever since she gave me the artifact for changing appearance but I didn't expect that she is a demon..' Souta said inwardly.
