The Evolution of a Goblin to the Peak

ry immediately put this thought out of his mind.

He knew that Ursus was a powerful man that could go against a monster that undergo fourth evolution.
The city lord of the Gripin city wasn ’t Ursus match in one on one battle.

In the circle of nobles, Ursus was a powerful one among them.
If Gregory ’s power was at the middle tier, then Ursus was at the top tier.

Then, he remembered Souta ’s identity.

”The Ladro Institute?! ” Gregory exclaimed.
He recalled that Souta was the top 1 first year of the Ladro Institute.

”They secretly send someone to protect him.
T-They knew that Souta could me alone so they didn ’t bother stopping but they knew that it was too early for him to fight someone at Ursus level so they prevented Ursus from interfering in his fight. ” Gregory muttered as he understood what was happening.

”Damn! That Ladro Institute! They used me to sharpen their top student! I will remember this! Souta Ieshi! I will take my revenge soon and no one will be able to stop me! ” Gregory cursed under his breath.

He lost a lot this time.
A lot of his knights died including his direct subordinates, also his face.
He would become a laughing stock in the circle of nobles of they knew that a first-year student beat him in a battle.

Suddenly, he felt extreme pain burst on his chest.

”Argh! W-What?! ” He looked down and saw a blade passed through his chest from his behind.

”Ugh! ”

He spat a mouthful of blood and he tried to turned his head to look at the culprit behind him.

The culprit pulled back the blade and he fell on the ground with a loud ”thud ” sound.

”Argh! ” Gregory groaned in pain and he turned over.
He saw the appearance of the one who stabbed him.

He saw a beautiful girl with long lilac-colored hair that was tied in a ponytail.
She ’s heterochromia, a person with different eye colors.
Her left eye was blue while her right eye was color red.

”You!! ” Gregory was surprised when he saw the appearance of the girl in front of him.

”Ufufu, I was about to let you go but I heard you mention my dearest Souta ’s name. ” The girl chuckled as she lifted her hand and covered her mouth.
She then waved the blade in her hand and the blood on the blade splattered on the ground.

”Y-You ’re- ” Gregory looked at the girl with wide-open eyes.

He knew the girl in front of him.
Who didn ’t know her in this kingdom? She was the only person who dared to beat the prince of this kingdom.
The most famous student of the Ladro Institute, Yanagi Shina.

”Shh! Please be quiet… ” Yanagi placed her finger in front of her lips and gesture him to keep quiet.

”No! I will not… ” Gregory shouted and was backing down but Yanagi stopped her.

Yanagi moved her body forward and swiftly stabbed her blade on Gregory ’s throat.

”Argh! ” Gregory felt intense pain as Yanagi twisted the blade.
His vision was blurring and his consciousness was seeping out of his body.

If he wasn ’t gravely injured then he would be able to fight Yanagi Shina.
Unfortunately for him, he experienced a fierce battle before.

He was full of regret as he didn ’t expect that this would happen.
Dying like wasn ’t in his plan.
He only came to this city to strengthen the engagement of his son and Lumilia.

”I…
don ’t want…
to die like…
this… ” Gregory forced out these words out of his mouth.
He lifted up both of his hands and grabbed the blade.

”You deserve to die like this after doing that to my Souta~ Ah, I ’ll kill you, no, I ’ll torture you first~, ” Yanagi said as she breathed frantically.
Her chest heaved up and down.

Suddenly, her expression turned serious.
She was looking at Gregory as if she was looking at trash.
She slowly opened her mouth and said, ”Well, I ’ll kill you now. ”

Followed by those words, she swung the blade in her hand.

Putchi!

Gregory ’s head flew in the mid-air before it landed on the ground while splashing blood on it.

”Ah~ I wanted to torture you but I need to move now, so count yourself lucky, ” Yanagi said to him before she placed her palm on Gregory ’s body.

Her magic power slight rose and flames appeared on Gregory ’s body.

”Goodbye to you~ ” Yanagi leave these words as she vanished into thin air.
