The Evolution Of A Goblin To The Peak Chapter 931 Battle at the Selnes Country: Meeting

Chapter 931 Battle at the Selnes Country: Meeting

Red Mist landed gracefully on the ground, her expression still retaining that faint smile. The surrounding area was engulfed in the relentless blaze. Jaymi and Lou Yi had been reduced to kneeling forms, their bodies marked with burn injuries, realizing the futility of challenging Red Mist as a team.

Observing them with a condescending look, Red Mist addressed Jaymi, "Against Boulder Jack, your chances would have been much better." She then s.h.i.+fted her gaze to Lou Yi, "But for you, the odds wouldn't be so favorable due to your over-reliance on your three elemental affinities. Boulder Jack has a spell that effectively suppresses elemental energy, making him a challenging opponent. Given what you've displayed, I'd say you have a seventy percent chance of defeating him."

With a casual shrug of her shoulders, Red Mist continued, "But don't worry. You won't have to face him because Blood Lightning Monster has already taken care of him."

"W-What are you talking about?" Jaymi stammered, her voice strained.

"I'm just clarifying some things," Red Mist responded. She glanced at the two, who were on the brink of collapse, and said, "Now, can you tell me about your background? If necessary, I don't want to kill either of you."

She turned her head and pointed her finger at the fire spirit, Fiamma. "My partner here is a good spirit. She doesn't want to witness any more deaths."

"Hmph! What are you saying? I'm not a kid!" Fiamma snorted, turning her head to the side, still indignant but perhaps slightly less so.

"Fine, fine," Red Mist sighed, taking into account Fiamma's protest. She turned back to Jaymi and Lou Yi. "So, what's your decision?"

Lou Yi grinned as she locked eyes with Red Mist. "You're ignorant. You don't know anything, and even your G.o.d, Gluttony, was in the dark."

"My G.o.d? No, no, no, I didn't wors.h.i.+p anyone. I joined the Deadly Sins for protection and because it's convenient to work under their banner," Red Mist explained. "It's the same for most of us. Only those within the Order of Sins are true devotees, like Ice Death. I joined to survive the onslaught of the major factions."

She slowly walked towards the two. Suddenly, she paused and turned her head to the side.

Bang!

A figure burst out of the ground.

"Oh," Red Mist raised her eyebrows with interest in her eyes. "They really did have a comrade..."

"Eldian?!" Jaymi and Lou Yi exclaimed upon seeing the person who arrived.

The man who was named Eldian glanced at his two comrades before he turned his attention to Red Mist. He raised his hand, and a crimson-colored sphere floated above his palm.

"This is what you want, right? Take it," Eldian said.

Red Mist didn't say anything. Instead, she kept her eyes on the man. She could feel a sense of danger emanating from this unknown man, suggesting that he might be able to force her to use everything she had or even potentially defeat her.

"If you're not going to take it, then I'll destroy it," Eldian said before he threw the sphere in the air. Then, he fired a small energy ball towards it.

Swoos.h.!.+

Red Mist moved instantly. She quickly appeared in front of the crimson-colored sphere and slapped the energy ball away. Then, she took the crimson sphere and landed on the ground.

She looked around and found that the three had already vanished.

"Oh, he tricked me..."

Red Mist mused. She glanced in a certain direction. She could still feel their energy fluctuations, indicating they hadn't gone too far. She could still catch up if she moved now.

"Like I'm going to do that," she said as she stretched her body. She looked at the crimson sphere in her hand. "I've already completed my job here, so there's no point in following those guys. I'm going to rest and take my time until the battle is over. I thought I'd have to push myself in this mission, but it seems luck is on my side today."

Red Mist sat down in a corner and gazed at the sky. She was still wondering about the affiliation of those three. They had displayed impressive skills for their levels, especially the man.

"Probably at Thousand Earth's level or maybe even stronger... He could give me a good fight. I'm not really fond of fighting, though, since I always get carried away. Fiamma also doesn't like it when I'm in that state."

...

Souta floated above, staring into the eye of the storm. The pitch darkness and strange fluctuations warned him that entering this place would lead him to another dimension.

Beneath him, there was a sea of blood from all the people of the Deadly Sins that he had killed. It seemed to move as if it had a life of its own.

Hundreds of people on the ground watched him. They were from the alliance army, so Souta didn't need to kill them. It was a one-sided battle the moment Souta joined the fight. He wasn't exhausted to his limit, so they couldn't take him down. There was a chance for the Deadly Sins' experts to defeat him if he fought another top expert and exhausted himself. Unfortunately for them, that didn't happen, so they all perished.

Souta exhaled as he turned his attention to the floating island, covered in huge, gigantic trees. The smallest tree was twenty meters tall, while the tallest reached fifty meters.

His attention was drawn to a small house at the center of the floating island. He had seen it recently.

Whoos.h.!.+

Souta descended onto the land, and all the blood followed his movements.

A figure stood in front of the small house, a look of concern on her face.

"What are you doing here, Gilaine?" Souta asked as he walked towards the young girl.

The girl was indeed Gilaine Botano, the hidden child of Paente Botani. Her eyes lit up when she saw Souta. "Sir William!"

Souta paused for a moment, recalling that he had introduced himself to her as William and hadn't revealed his real name. He shook his head and asked again, "Do you know what happened?"

Gilaine lowered her head and said, "I don't know. I was tending a powerful fruit, and when it bloomed, the world changed. Except for the house, I don't recognize this place at all. I'm trying to find the location where the fruit is."

"Wait..." Souta raised his hand to signal a pause and processed what she had just told him. After a moment, he looked at her and said, "Fruit? So you're the one tending a mythical-grade fruit, and from what you're saying, you know its location."

Gilaine tilted her head in confusion. "Mythical-grade fruit?"

gauge the fruit's power based on the energy it emitted.

"The fruit you're tending to is a mythical-grade; that's why I referred to it as a mythical-grade fruit," Souta explained with a gentle smile.

"Oh, I see..." Gilaine nodded in comprehension.

Souta continued, "Could you tell me where you sensed the fruit?" He spoke gently to the young girl.

Gilaine looked up and pointed at the pitch-black hole in the sky. "There. I can sense the fruit there, but it's not there. It's beyond that place."

Souta nodded in understanding. "I see... So there's another layer of dimensions beyond that opening."

"I want to go there, but I can't fly," Gilaine said with a touch of disappointment in her voice.

"Don't worry, I'll bring you with me," Souta a.s.sured Gilaine. He then observed her closely, sensing that she was weak yet she didn't seem affected by his energy. He wasn't intentionally releasing his energy, but he wasn't suppressing it either, remaining in his normal state.

Saya spoke to Souta, expressing her concerns about the situation. 'She said that she's the one tending the fruit and she can sense it. Souta, something isn't right with this little girl. I don't think my previous guess works anymore. She's more than that.'

Souta agreed with Saya's a.s.sessment. He gazed at the patch of swirling darkness in the sky, recognizing that the s.p.a.ce structure in the area was mostly stable, except for this unsettling darkness. It vibrated incessantly, emitting powerful energy and resembling someone banging on a door. There was also a strong and eerie energy seeping from it.

'It appears that another top expert is fighting on the other side,' Saya commented.

Souta took a deep breath, mentally preparing himself for the potential battle with another top expert. He hoped to secure the Tears of Divine Might before having to face another powerful opponent.

With determination in his eyes, he turned to Gilaine and raised his finger, signaling her to get ready. Gilaine's feet were encased in hardened blood, which lifted her and Souta into the air.

Swoos.h.!.+

They began their journey towards the swirling darkness in the sky, ready to face whatever challenges lay on the other side.
