The Evolution Of A Goblin To The Peak-Novel

Chapter 505 - Secrets Of Archetype

Souta and Amanda were looking at the window when they heard a knock on the door.

Knock! Knock!

Souta turned his head and asked, "Who is it?"

"I'm a servant of Lady Eilish. Lady Eilish is hoping that she could see you tomorrow." A low feminine voice sounded behind the door.

"I understand. You can go now." Souta said while looking at the door.

Eilish was a shackled realm expert. She was too powerful and Souta had to be cautious when dealing with her. He knew that he couldn't stop her if she wanted to move against him, and Eilish understood it. That's why she gave him a time to prepare and didn't immediately ask for his presence.

"Who is this Lady Eilish?" Amanda asked with a curious expression.

"An expert... An expert at Extinction Realm." Souta replied to her.

"E-Extinction Realm?!!" Amanda was shocked when she heard his words. This level was only a legend in the southern continent yet this land really houses people at Extinction Realm.

"She's the one that gave me the information about the hidden base," Souta added.

"I-I see... T-Then, are we going to deal with Extinction Realm?" Amanda asked as her lips trembled.

If they could only get the information about Witch Clan from an Extinction Realm then there's a high possibility that the one responsible for her clan's massacre was an Extinction Realm too.

"I don't know but you don't have to worry about it. If dealing with Extinction Realm is what it takes to fulfill your wish then I will do it. You just need to follow my arrangement." Souta assured her when he saw her downcast look.

"I understand." Amanda lowered her head as she clenched her fists tightly.

Souta smiled and thought that it was time. He glanced at Yenxa who was staying silent behind him.

"Come here, Yenxa."

"Yes, My Lord."

Yenxa stepped forward.

"Let me show you something, Amanda."

Souta said as he waved his hand and set up several layers of field around the room. Then, he pulled the vajra sword out of its sheath.

Swoosh!

Before Amanda could react, she found that she was in a different place. A mystical place that she hasn't encountered in her whole life unless there's a god-level powerhouse in her clan. But that's unlikely as the Witch Clan of this world wouldn't fall if they had a god.

"There's still some time left so we'll train in this place. Remember that the time in this place is different than time in reality."

Souta said before he proceed to explain what he's capable of doing. She's now a member of his group so she had to know these benefits.

This was to prepare themselves for the next day when they raided the hidden base once again. By raiding that place, Souta hoped that he could complete the Quest 2 of the Chain Quest.

By the time he completed this chain quest, he would have enough points to unlock one of the abilities of Ophiuchus. One of the abilities that he was excited to unlock was the Cosmic Authority.

The ability that made the Zodiacs' members a force to reckon at the top rank gods in the entire universe.

In the game, he recalled when Leo used the [Cosmic Authority: Leo] to confront the combined forces of the Three Great Countries. That scene was absolute and it forced the Three Great Countries to use their secret weapons like Thousand Spell Cluster.

Souta, Amanda, and Yenxa trained inside Saya's inner consciousness for a few days. They didn't need to worry as five days here was equal to one day outside.

Souta's eyes were closed as he kept swinging the energy blade in his hand gently. He kept changing his form every minute while maintaining the rhythm of his breathing and energy flowing in his body.

Amanda and Yenxa already stopped practicing as they watched Souta's movements from afar.

Although Souta's swing was gentle, the force behind it contained enough power to annihilate them.

Crackle!

Black lightning was forming around him. It was the opposite of his gentle form and swing as the lightning were wild and violent.

Suddenly, the black lightning flowed through his body and when he swung the energy blade in his hand, a wave of black lightning surged out of the blade like a thunderstorm.

"I understand now!"

Souta opened his eyes as he tightened his muscle and swung the energy blade once again.

[Archetype: Vajra Extremity]!

[Form One: Mahayana Tribulation]!

An ear-piercing sound echoed and it was followed by a series of black lightning encompassing the entire area. The black lightning was like a spider web connected to each other as it brings fort destruction everywhere.

Amanda and Yenxa were forced to retreat. They understood that the range and power of the attack were beyond their expectations.

After a while, the rage of the black lightning disappeared.

Souta looked at his hand and smiled, "Finally, I've learned it."

'Congratulations, you've learned my race's Archetype Skill! Your future will be higher with this skill!' Saya's voice sounded and it feels like she was excited for real this time.

"Without your guidance, I wouldn't be able to learn this skill alone."

Souta muttered as he loosened his grip and the energy blade slowly disappeared into thin air.

What's shocking was that he received a lot of system prompts after he learned the technique. He looked at it and was surprised when he saw the messages.

[You've comprehended an Archetype Skill]!

Souta shivered while looking at the messages in his vision. He didn't think that he would receive this much benefit from learning this one skill. It's definitely worthwhile that he invests his time in trying to learn this skill.

'Now that you've learned this skill. Let me tell you one thing, Archetype Skill is a foundation to reach godhood. Without it, you would fail the ascension.' Saya said to him.

"Foundation?"

'The ascension of a mortal's body is a sensitive matter. The chances of a mortal achieving god realm are less than five percent. Archetype is created to increase the chances of breaking through the mortal's body.'

Souta frowned when he heard this. This was important information yet he hasn't heard anything about it in the game.

His question was answered by Saya.

'Archetype is a secret technique that can only be passed down through legacy. This is a powerful skill so there are restrictions.

'A mortal would automatically forget anything related to Archetype. That's why most of the gods, deities, demon gods, spirit gods, and monster lords used the legacy method or the skill dividing. Then, why is Isabella didn't know anything about Archetype even if she got the legacy of a god? The answer is that she knew it but instantly forgot it once she acquired it. She will remember it once she broke five shackles which is the boundary between mortal and immortal. In your case, the fifth evolution is the boundary for monsters.

'Skill dividing is a skill that only a god-level powerhouse can use. It's similar to blessing but a god who used skill dividing will experience a weakened state and they are vulnerable at this time. Even mortal could kill them in this weakened state.'

Souta deepened his frown after he heard Saya's explanation. It means that in the game he had Archetype Skills too, but he would only be able to see it after reaching a certain level.

Then the reason why Saya could teach this skill to him was because Saya was dead long ago and passing this skill to him was treated as god's legacy.

Only a few mortals could ascend without depending on the Archetype Skill.

After learning the truth, the ascension became a complicated matter to him. It's different than what he expected but he was could comprehend this skill even though he was only a third evolution monster. Also, he could see the Archetype Skill that he received from legacy in his System Store.

He wondered why...

'I can't explain it to you but it seems that you're not bound by this restriction. It seems that you lose something in the past in exchange for this.' Saya said.

Lost something? Could it be my life as a human on the earth? By it's not an equivalent exchange.. The restriction is greater than my past life.
