[1-200] THE EVOLUTION OF A GOBLIN TO THE PEAK

Chapter 183 - Harvesting the souls

Souta sat down on the corner to rest for a few minutes. He leaned his back on the rocks and sighed.

This was a bad yet good day for him. Bad, because he underestimated his opponent and almost died. Lucky, because he got a lot of exp, free attribute points, and skill points. It was really good that he took this quest back in the Ladros city.

Lumilia walked to his side and casted a healing spell towards him to heal the bruises in his body.

[Heal]!

Souta glanced at her and thanked her.

Lumilia just smiled and shook her head in response. This was the only thing she could do for her. She didn't know how Souta fought that monster on his own.

Souta closed his eyes as he let Lumilia heal the bruises in his body. He recalled the fight today and started to reflect on the mistake that he did. He started to simulate in his mind how he fought Ranny and the dark vine stinger.

He also recalled how Saya controlled his body and injured the dark vine stinger. Those powerful spells that she used were still in his mind. The only problem was that he couldn't cast it. The magic circle of the spell [Quicksilver] and [Damage Absorption Shield] was too complicated for Souta.

His spell was only a tier 1 and he was trying to jump to tier 3 without learning the tier 2. He still needed to master the structure of tier 1 and tier 2 spells before he went to tier 3 spells. That's the reason why Souta enrolled in the Ladro Institute, to learn the basic and advanced way of casting spells.

Right now, Souta was too dependent on his system. He wanted to cast a spell without the help of his system. He wanted to manually learn it as he was currently casting a spell without knowing its structure.

Bryan looked at the corpse of the dark vine stinger and asked, "What should we do with its corpse?"

"I don't know. Let's wait for Souta's instruction." Brando said as he glanced at Souta who was resting in the corner.

"Damn! Souta is really awesome, right? How could he fight this monster on his own?" Bryan said with a grin on his face. He could imagine in his mind how fierce Souta and this monster's battle based on the shockwaves from before.

"Yeah, even though it was severely injured and was close to death. We still have difficulty in killing it." Brando couldn't help but nod at Bryan's words.

If the dark vine stinger was in its peak condition then Brando wouldn't be able to block a single attack from it. Maybe, the pressure was all it needed to suppressed Brando.

'I still need to toughen my defense so that I could block an attack from this level of monster.' Brando thought as he clenched his fists.

After a while, Souta opened his eyes and used the [Summoning] skill to summon Yuko.

Yuko appeared beside him with a tired expression. Souta borrowed all of her energy before so it was natural that she felt exhausted.

Souta looked at Lumilia and said, "You can stop healing me."

"I understand." Lumilia nodded at him and she looked at the corpse of the dark vine stinger. She then asked, "Do we have to bring its whole body or not?"

"Yes, we'll bring its whole body. I'm sure that some of the people in this dukedom will let us borrow some caravan." Souta said as he stood up. He looked at Yuko and patted her head.

"You did a good job today. Just rest for a while." He said to her.

He then walked towards the corpse of the dark vine stinger and looked at it. The monster orb of this monster was shattered but it was still valuable. The fragments of it contained a little bit of best feram.
