Souta followed Raeshka with Yuko behind him. He didn't have a mana so he will count on Yuko's mana. He had [Pet Resonance] skill so he could borrow Yuko's mana and her senses. It was a skill of a tamer that could let him combine his and her strength.
If Souta level up this skill then he would be able to borrow her stats and add it to his own after a certain point.
Even though Yuko's mana pool wasn't large as his it was still enough to cast a few dozen spells.
Souta and Yuko went outside and saw Raeshka standing in front of countless different monsters.
'There are more than a million monsters under Raeshka's rule.' Souta thought as he recalled how her force fought back the demons that invade this place.
This force was enough to invade a huge country like Hebrei kingdom. Every army of a monster lord could rival those of a huge country and this was one of the reasons why no one dared to provoke a monster lord.
But the problem was that the most powerful monster didn't live in the Forest of Eternal and instead, they could be found in the infamous Dark Forest, the largest forest on the entire continent. Also one of the forbidden areas on the continent.
Powerful and vicious monsters live in Dark Forest. According to the founder of the Adventurers Guild, the number of the monster lord in that place exceeded the number of the monster lord in the Forest of Eternal Light. Third and fourth evolution stage monster could be found anywhere in that place. If one didn't possess the power of an S-rank, then they wouldn't be able to last that long in that place full of monsters.
Of course, this information wasn't made to the public.
In the past, countless human and demi countries tried to force their way to that forest but no one managed to own it. Those countries were annihilated in a single night by an unknown monster.
"I'll set up an arena where you will fight the goblin corruptor here!" Raeshka said to her subjects as she pointed at Souta who just got out of the castle. "I'll reward anyone who managed to defeat him so try your best to show him your powers! Try your best to impress me and I'll fulfill one of your wishes to the limit of my powers!"
All the monsters in the view looked at Souta. They observed this unknown goblin corruptor. This was the first time they saw him in this place so they were unfamiliar with him. Also, this unknown goblin corruptor went out of the castle of their lord. It seems that their lord was close to this goblin.
"Am I included in that?" Souta asked as he pointed at his nose.
Raeshka turned her gaze at him and nodded, "Yes, you are included. If you successfully defeat all the challengers then I'll fulfill one of your wishes."
"Then, do you have a plan to let me go?" Souta asked her.
"No," Raeshka said without hesitation.
"I see..." Souta nodded and he turned his head to the monsters before he said, "Then, my wish is to leave this place. I want you to let me go and safely leave this place after I defeated all the challenges."
"Are you sure you want to leave this place? This is a paradise for monsters. No humans or demis would be able to hunt monsters in this place. All the monsters under my protection are safe in this place." Raeshka said to him in a deep tone. "You must know that your human and demi friends will someday found your true identity. You will be hunted by their country. You can forget them and stay in this place."
"Hays... I think you wouldn't be able to understand it even if I tell you. I told you before that I'm doing it for my survival but that's not all. I'm doing it to strengthen myself. I don't want to stay in this place where my safety is guaranteed. I wouldn't grow stronger and I want to experience the true nature of this world in my own two hands. That's all and one day I'll become a monster lord like you." Souta said as he looked at his own two hands. It's true that this place was safe but that's only until version 1 ends.
