Chapter 564: Orina I

"You see... My mother said that my father could sense my location if I release my limiter. I thought that releasing my limiter is one of the best choices there to fight the Clan Leader. I don\'t think I could help you with my normal demon powers." Alice explained to him.

"Don\'t worry about it. We\'ll leave this place soon. We just needed to make sure to clean our traces on this planet." Souta said.

"Speaking of traces... Back in the southern continent, the people there attempted to start the Demon Summoning Ritual. I don\'t want another demon to appear in this place as there is a chance that they will discover me. So I used my knowledge and decided to interfere with it. I forcefully let them summon me and complete the contract. Luckily, they are ignorant and know little of the contract. It\'s easy to trick them." Alice slowly recounted to him the things that occurred in the southern continent while he was busy running his coffee shop.

"Oh," Souta raised his eyebrows as he realized something. "So that\'s how you met Amanda. And also, you\'re saying that the traces of the Demon Summoning Ritual will confuse the demons that will arrive here."

"Yeah, they will think I got summoned here and after I completed the contract, I returned to where I\'ve been before." Alice paused for a moment before she continued, "They will still find the truth if they\'ve investigated well but it\'s enough to buy us some time."

"Yeah, it\'s enough." Souta nodded. He felt tired and wanted to rest but since the system warned him, he should follow it. He couldn\'t underestimate the top gods of Imperium.

...

"What about you, Souta? How did you come to live with humans and demis?" Alice asked as she glanced at him. She finished her story so she was a little bit curious about his story.

How come a monster like him lives along with humans and demis? Does he not afraid of the danger that other people will subjugate him?

Souta didn\'t know how to say it. His physical body was monster but his mind and soul were still that of the Souta Ieshi of earth. He didn\'t enjoy what other monsters enjoyed so he was a bit different from them. His preference and taste were still the same when he was on earth.

The only difference was that his physical body had changed.

"Well, um... It\'s hard to explain but I just found myself going towards the human kingdom. I decided to live in the kingdom and learned various things. I don\'t have a complicated background." Souta shrugged his shoulder.

"Hmm... Then, what kind of monster are you?" Alice asked with a curious expression. No matter how much she looked at him, he looked like a demi. One wouldn\'t doubt him until they saw his monster orb release form.

"A goblin," Souta replied to her.

"A goblin?!" Alice opened her eyes widely as she looked at him from head to toe.

"Well, yeah... There\'s no doubt that I\'m a goblin." Souta nodded with a helpless expression. Even he found his appearance more on the demi side. He looked like his past self except for his skin tone and slightly pointed ears.

It must be because he still had feelings about his past. That\'s why every time he undergoes evolution, his appearance change to suit his past.

Well, it\'s better this way. He pretty much like his previous appearance than some random goblin face.

"O-Okay..." Alice stuttered while observing his appearance. She thought that he was some kind of rare monster so she didn\'t expect that he was a common monster in Giza Continent.

Souta looked at the Great Quest. This was the most unexpected thing that happened today. Alice was Lucifer\'s daughter and he had no idea about it.

The Great Quest was like a pyramid quest. Every time a scenario had changed it will trigger a sub-quest that could let him get closer to completing the Great Quest. It was like a chain quest but this one had different choices.

If three sub-quests appeared then he could only choose one of these quests. After he finished choosing a quest, the other two quests will disappear. He had to wait again until another sub-quest appeared.

He opened the Great Quest to see if there were choices but he found nothing. He glanced at Alice beside him and asked, "Do you have allies in Demon\'s Land?"

"I don\'t think so..." Alice shook her head. "I\'m still a child at that time and didn\'t have any demons sworn their allegiance to me. Also, most of the demons in Heavenly Demon Palace used their oath to my father."

"I see... According to Lumilia, the demons are invading the Giza Continent. Listen Wastes and Heretic Dynasty had fallen to demon\'s hands. That\'s two large countries and each one probably had two or five god-level powerhouses guarding the country but they had somehow fallen..." Souta paused as he looked at her.

Alice continued his words, "It means that my father dispatched Demon Pillars. Without Demon Pillars, the demon army would have a hard time conquering two large countries."

"Yeah, we should know the position of the demons so that you could avoid making a contact with them. Who knows if there are demons out there that could see through your disguise." Souta said to her. Yeah, currently his [Galaxy Eyes] could see through Alice\'s disguise.

"I understand," Alice noticed that he was exhausted so she suggested, "I\'m gonna leave for now. You should rest for a while. You look tired."

"Hahaha, who needs rest! I don\'t need it!" Souta laughed as he scratched the back of his head. He was actually dying to sleep now but he couldn\'t do so after seeing the warning. He was afraid that Lucifer would find his dream and kill him on the spot.

"But you look-"

"Who needs it? I don\'t see anyone that needed to sleep here." Souta slightly raised his voice. He sighed and clapped his hands, "Anyway, I think you need more rest than I, Alice. I\'m going to check the others for now."

With that, Souta stood up and left the room with unsteady steps.

"What\'s wrong with him?" Alice stared at his back with a confused expression.

...

Souta went to Franklin. At this moment, Franklin had finished counting all the remaining people that reached B-rank and above. It was time for Souta to do his job to plant parasites to these people. Planting parasites was important as it will increase the overall combat prowess of his people.

Although their power level was low, they will gain an advantage to the people of the same level using parasites.

Souta entered a huge spacious room. Inside there were hundreds of people laying on stretchers. Most of the people here were heavily injured to the point that they couldn\'t even walk on their own.

It was a pitiful sight. Among seven hundred thirty nine people only five hundred eighteen had survived and more than four hundred are heavily injured.

\'They did great considering that they fought the Clan Leader\'s forces which were several times stronger than them.\' Saya\'s voice sounded in his mind.

\'Yeah, I know.\' Souta swept his eyes across the room.

The people were quiet as Souta observed them. It was their first time meeting the leader of the organization that they joined so they were quite nervous. They heard from Franklin, Isabella, and Torkez that their leader was strong and they just witnessed his battle prowess from the battle just now.

It was just that they didn\'t expect him to be a monster. It was outside of their expectations and it made them more nervous.

"Quiet! The Lord is here! I don\'t care if you are injured or not just keep quiet or else I will kill you!" Franklin said in a loud voice as his body emitted a strong bloodlust.

Some of the people here weren\'t from the assassin group that Franklin formed but he didn\'t care about it. Those who disobeyed his words will suffer death.

Franklin turned his head and looked at the woman with long black hair and pointed ears.

"Oi, Remina! Give Lord Souta the report!"

He said to her. This woman was the woman that Torkez helped back in the southern continent. She actually wanted to stay back in the south to slowly expand the organization but her curiosity about Torkez\'s lord overcome her.

"Hmm..."

Souta received paper files and slowly read the continent in his mind. According to the content of the paper, one hundred sixty one people were qualified to receive parasites.

Among the five hundred eighteen survivors, only eighty-nine have the power level of B-rank. The remaining seventy two people only had strong bodies that could endure the backlash of taking parasites so they were qualified.

"Good, then let\'s start right away," Souta said as he turned his head at Remina. "You will be the first. Forcefully remove the natural energy protecting your body and relax your muscles. It will be over in a minute."

"Eh..." Remina was surprised as she didn\'t think that he would start with her.. Soon, her forehead was grabbed by Souta.
