Chapter 232 - Monster Lord of Destruction

[You've entered a Great Labyrinth, the House of a Monster Lord!]

A familiar sound rang inside Souta's head.

Countless different monster could be seen around the place. Some of the monsters here were rare species that could hardly found on the surface.

Souta and Yuko didn't stop moving as both of them continued to follow the goblin executioner.

Rare plants and trees also stood around the place. If humans and demis got to know a place like this then they would try to get their hands on these resources. Special fruits and herbs that could sell for dozen platinum coins were here just like a normal plant.

These fruits or herbs could increase a person's energy capacity, strength, or agility. Every plant has its own use. Some plants could help a person's healing ability while some were poison.

This place was rich in energy. That's why some of the rare plants sprouted here.

If Souta wasn't used to seeing a treasure stove like this then his greed would consume him and create a trouble in this place. Other people wouldn't be able to control their l.u.s.t and desire but Souta was different. This level of treasure was nothing to him. His equipment set was still unrivaled.

The treasure of the number one player of the game wasn't a joke at all. His total possession surpassed those from large kingdoms and countries.

Well, Souta would be lying if he said that he's not tempted at the things that he saw here in this place. Those things could increase his strength so he wanted to get his hands on those fruits and plants.

He and Yuko would benefit greatly if they could freely eat those things just like other monsters in this place.

The monsters around stopped what they were doing as they glanced in Souta's direction. They were talking to each other but Souta couldn't understand them. [Goblin Language] was the only language that he knew. He didn't grow up in this place so he was ignorant of the world of monsters.

Souta shook his head and remove those unnecessary thoughts in his mind. He was going to meet a monster lord so he should prepare himself. If he angered the monster lord then he should bid goodbye to his life.

This place was so huge that it took them another twenty minutes of walking before they arrived in a huge castle-like place.

"We're here! You're going to meet our Lord!" The goblin executioner said in a warning tone.

Gulp!

Souta gulped as he nodded his head. He stretched out his hand and patted Yuko telling her not to worry.

'I won't let you die here in this place...'

Souta and Yuko entered the castle-like structure. They were standing in front of a huge exquisite golden-colored door. The door opened on its own and the two entered the room after they heard someone said, "come in".

Those two words were flawless. It contained some sort of power that calm him down. Souta and Yuko naturally move their feet and stepped inside the room as if they were used to entering this room. No, some strange power was pushing them inside the room.

Souta opened his eyes and faced everything. The ceiling that came into his view was very high and very broad. The walls were predominantly white with golden decorations and highlights. The red carpet ran down the center of the room. Around it was powerful monsters above third evolution.

At the throne at the center of the room was a figure. It was a figure of a small girl with long chestnut color hair that was tied in twintails. Her two reptilian eyes were observing Souta's movements. There's a faint smile on her face that showed her sharp fangs.

A blue-colored gem was embedded on the center of her forehead. At the side of the blue-colored gem was a pair of black small horns. The ears of the small girl were like the ears of a fox. One could see scales below her eyes. The small girl wasn't an ordinary person. Her figures showed that she was a demi but her features showed otherwise. Especially, the gem on her forehead and at the center of her chest.

The gem was none other than the famed monster orb of monsters.

The small girl was wearing revealing armor that covered her private parts. Black with silver decoration armor that looks like a dragon covered her body parts.

Souta opened his eyes widely when he saw the appearance of the small girl that was sitting on the throne. Memories of the game flooded his entire mind. He recalled the events that happened in the game that was related to the character in front of him.

One of the most famous monster lords. The most active and distinguished monster lord in the game was this small girl.

Raeshka, the monster lord of destruction, the destruction queen. One of the most powerful monster lords in the entire forest of eternal light. There were ten monster lords in the forest of eternal light and Raeshka was in the top 3 in terms of fighting ability of all the monster lords in this place.

A monster lord rarely involved themselves in the affairs of humans and demis. But Raeshka was different from other monster lords. At chaotic times, she brought out her force and fought the demons to a standstill. She even fought one of the ten commandments of the God's Will.

Souta could clearly remember when she fought a commandment in a one on one battle. That battle shook the entire continent as the humans and demis once again understood the power of the fearsome monster lord. But even then, she still couldn't defeat the commandments of the God's Will.

The monster lords were gods and deities of monsters. They were at the same level. They were the counterpart of gods and deities in this world.

And the commandments were at the level of gods and deities.

The battle between one of the commandments and Raeshka was so fierce that it burned down several countries on this continent. It was one of the memorable fights in the entire game history.

Souta wouldn't be able to forget that scene. Even his full power back then wasn't sure if he could fight her on equal ground.

"You really looked like a demi-human!" Raeshka exclaimed as soon as she saw his face. "Your facial structure didn't resemble any goblin corruptor like you."

Of course, Souta's face looked like the one he got in the past when he was still a human. It was different from the goblin in this place. The only difference was that the color of his skin was dark green. If he changed his skin tone, then Souta would even doubt that he was a goblin.

Raeshka stood up and she floated towards him. She stopped in front of him as she looked straight at his eyes. "You may be able to fool the humans and demis but you will never be able to fool higher level of a monster like me. I could sense the bloodline that's flowing in your veins. The bloodline of a goblin. You will never be able to hide it."

A higher level of monster was sensitive to other monsters. They could easily guess the level of evolution of other monsters and types of species with just a single look.

"..." Souta didn't say anything as he let the other party do whatever she wanted. It's still not the time to negotiate with her.

"Ever since you enter this forest you already piqued my interest. I saw a monster living with humans and demis as if he was one of them. I have a lot of time so I busied myself observing that certain monster." Raeshka said as she went back to her throne. "You know what I found...? That monster is really living with humans and demis as one of them. The people around him didn't have an idea that he's a monster. What a freak!?"

Souta knew that she was talking about him. There's no monster that was living in the humans and demis as one of them except for him. He even knew the language of humans and demis.

"I'm curious why would a goblin like you live with humans and demis? I want to know what's in your mind. Can you satisfy my curiosity?" Raeshka smiled as she asked Souta in a tone that she wouldn't let him leave this place if she wasn't satisfied by his answer.

"...I don't know... I just live with them. The other goblins in my tribe died so I went with humans and demis. I tried to learn their language so that I could converse with them. Everything is for me to survive." Souta replied to her with a serious expression. Of course, he was lying to her. He wouldn't say that he was a human in his past life that's why he tried to live with them. He wouldn't say that he learned the language of humans and demis with the help of the system.
