Chapter 852 Report
Chapter 852 Report
?
A week had passed in the blink of an eye.
Souta was extremely busy this week since he almost turned the entire Hall Plains upside down. His name resounded in the entire region and everyone learned why he was called the Lord of Hall Plains.
He fought nonstop every day, chasing all the warriors from other factions.
He even mobilized a lot of people just to find their clues. It became a little bit chaotic but it returned to normal after Souta chased them away.
In the end, he became the most feared being in the Hall Plains.
The name Blood Lightning Monster spread out as Souta chased all the warriors from other factions in this land.
Souta was in his office reading the recent reports.
"Hmm... This isn't bad."
He muttered. He placed the paper in his hand on the table before he stared at the window.
Alice and the others haven't returned yet. Well, he could understand it since he knew that those dungeons were hard to conquer with their current strength.
Souta breathed and said, "Amanda, come here..."
His voice wasn't loud but it traveled throughout the entire Astros.
Amanda, who heard his voice, immediately went to Souta's office room.
"Do you need me to do something for you?" Amanda asked.
"Yeah," Souta nodded before he opened the drawer and took out a piece of paper.
He threw the paper and Amanda caught it without any problem. She then took a look at it, only to find that it was a map.
Before she could even ask anything about it, she heard Souta's voice.
"I've encircled a few places in that map. I want you to go there and verify something for me." Souta said.
"What is it?" Amanda asked.
"Check if the leader of those places hasn't changed at all. Also, those red circles are dungeons that are suitable for your current strength. Bring a few people with you and clear it." Souta paused before he added, "Before you clear those dungeons just finish the task that I gave to you."
"I understand." Amanda nodded as she stared at the map.
"Good." Souta nodded with a satisfied look. He knew that Amanda wanted to increase her strength more than before after she learned about Elder Guan's death.
Amanda bid farewell before she left the room.
Souta was going to start his plan now. The military might of the Astros was enough to complete a few things in his mind. He didn't need to go and personally do it.
"I needed Torkez to complete the cultivation of King Parasite."
Souta closed his eyes as he crossed his arms in front of his chest.
After a few seconds, he stood up and vanished from his position.
Swoosh!
He reappeared in front of a small tombstone.
This was Yenxa's grave.
"Yenxa, I'm gonna go now. If you ever reincarnate into this world, I will find you. If you're not, then I'm gonna invade the soul realm after I gain enough strength. I'm gonna bring you back."
Souta said with a serious look on his face.
The soul realm was one of the mysterious places of the Imperium. It was a realm where all souls go and undergo reincarnation. It has a huge impact on maintaining the balance of the world.
Without it, souls wouldn't have any place to go. They would be stuck in the material world and even potentially erased their existence because of the gods.
Only souls could enter this realm.
It was a rule since the beginning of the Imperium.
Most of the knowledge regarding the soul realm has vanished. Only the Soul Tribe has interacted with that realm that even gods wouldn't dare to do.
According to the gods, the soul realm had powerful restrictions that ignore all concepts and it prevented gods from entering such place.
"Don't worry, I will find you."
Souta said before he turned around from the grave. He returned to his office and prepared himself to depart.
He was going to return to Champion's Den.
He already delayed it for a week so he couldn't delay it anymore. He had to report back to the headquarters.
Souta already finished the quest after chasing all the warriors. It's time for him to know the opinion of those people sitting above.
Souta went to Eilish's room.
"Eilish, are you busy? Do you want to come with me to Champion's Den?" He asked.
"O-Okay, I'll follow you," Eilish answered.
"Good, then we'll go now. I'll wait for you in the portal." Souta said.
...
Souta was in the portal talking to the other warriors of Athen's Champion while waiting for Eilish.
"Do you have any news about the current situation?" Souta asked.
"The only thing I heard before I was dispatched here two weeks ago was that there's a huge battle in the Ruin Battlefield." The warrior pinched the bridge of his nose trying to recall something. "Oh, there's also several battles involving several small organizations."
"Hmm... I see." Souta nodded.
Several small organizations... Probably those organizations at the level of the Red Matter Association.
And then, the Ruin Battlefield... It was the largest battlefield in the entire continent. There were a total of three Ruin Battlefields and Olympus only occupied a small region in one of those three lands.
That place was a total warzone. Most of the high-level experts were fighting in that land, trying to gain a piece of that huge cake. The resources in that place were high to the point that it became a battlefield where different factions such as Olympus and Asgard fought each other.
Soon, Eilish arrived and they both entered the portal. The portal didn't directly lead them to the Champion's Den, but they were already inside the territory of Olympus.
Souta didn't have enough funds to build such portal.
After a few days, Souta and Eilish arrived at the Champion's Den, one of the most highly guarded cities in the entire territory of Olympus.
The two entered the gate and they quickly noticed the warriors all over the place.
It seems that everyone was busy and something big must have happened.
The two didn't waste any more time before they went to the headquarters of Athen's Champion in this city.
"I'll go and report to Grain Leader Carmel. You can stay here and check the achievement points that you earned." Souta said to Eilish.
Eilish nodded.
...
"You did a great job in stopping the unsealing of No God Emperor," Carmel said with a smile on his face.
"I just did what I had to do," Souta answered calmly.
"Still, I didn't expect that such a problem would occur in that small region. I didn't even know No God Emperor nor the fact that there was a Large Country in the past in that land." Carmel said with a sigh.
"Me too... It was already too late when I found out about his existence." Souta replied.
"We're lucky that we sent a few of our warriors in that land or else No God Emperor will be freed," Carmel said.
"Speaking of that, what's the reaction of other countries? I fought several warriors from other factions a week ago."
"You did great in not killing them. It prevented us from having a war with them. I still don't know the plan but the higher-ups are talking to them. The Holy Lands will probably back down from the Hall Plains. The only problem is the Large Country near that land."
"The Large Countries... They didn't touch the Hall Plains for hundreds of years since it served as a border that separated them. Now that we've touched it, they will be afraid that their land will be next." Souta said.
"Yeah, around in each Holy Land, there are untouched regions. Those pieces of land are like Hall Plains. They aren't under the Holy Lands or Large Countries. They are borders as the Large Countries didn't want to get close to any of the Holy Lands." Carmel explained.
If the Holy Land decided to invade and dispatched a god. It would be too late. The land of those Large Countries would become a battlefield and even if they could kill that god, the casualties on their side would be astronomical since it would be a battle between two gods.
At the very least, with a border like Hall Plains, the Large Countries would be able to know if an army was marching toward them. Although it was full of holes, this gives them some sort of relief.
"Well, since there are demons in the south, we should expect that there wouldn't be a total war among us Holy Lands and Large Countries," Carmel said.
"I see... Total war will not happen but skirmishes between the factions will still occur." Souta said.
"It's unavoidable. That's what is currently happening. No big battle will occur between us." Carmel sighed.
"Big battle... Are you talking about gods only? Or maybe a few higher levels of a mortal are included with it?" Souta asked.
"Gods, Demigods, and Freedom Realm are the only thing that is considered big. In monster, that is what you called the peak fifth stage. If any of them fight, the effect of it will be tremendously disastrous." Carmel said with a serious expression.
Souta recalled the incident in Ladros City. If not for the barrier, Teacher Bargan's fight against the Deadly Sins officers would destroy the whole city. Luckily, it was a border city that was built to withstand an invasion from another country before the reinforcement arrived.
