From Goblin to Goblin God - Chapter 292

Chapter 292: A Boring Game, A Fatal Weakness

TL: Sungmin

“Hmph, you will soon pay for everything you’ve done!” the One-Eyed Owl sneered, eyes brimming with murderous intent.

A torrent of killing intent surged forth!

Behind her, Alice had finished charging up her attack. “Ultimate Sword Technique · Holy Light Judgment!”

Though it was a skill she’d learned during her time with the Church—not quite world-class—in this moment, it was her only option.

Using her final, world-class “Sword Song of the End” would risk harming her allies as well.

Anyway, holy light skills inherently held a restraining effect against all monsters.

The Ominous Blade elongated, transforming into a gleaming, golden magical longsword.

Its sharp edge aimed at Hir and sliced forward!

However—

Hir remained calm, continuing to release her fury.

“Boom!”

A terrifying blast distorted the space around her, as though she were a Saiyan!

In techniques to amplify power, this was generally the standard approach.

After all, true Saiyans also stacked rage with relentless howls.

The white aura around her shifted into a faint red hue.

The range expanded, the pressure intensified.

She extended her hand to the side, blocking the giant sword bare-handed!

“Buzz!”

Alice’s massive sword was stopped, held back by Hir’s hand.

Watching from the treetops, Lin Tian looked on in surprise. “Just a moment ago, her power was at seventeen thousand—now it’s nearing twenty thousand? That means she has at least one more phase of fury.”

The strength of a Demon King couldn’t be limited to this alone.

“Secret Sword Art · Swallow Reversal!”

Alice canceled her Judgment strike and charged forward!

She moved with blinding speed, vanishing only to reappear, slashing Hir’s back, leaving blood streaming down her flesh!

Then she disappeared, retreating once more.

The One-Eyed Owl also began to show her strength. Her left fist gathered energy, his aura gradually shifting to red.

She unleashed a punch!

“Boom!”

Hir was blasted into the castle courtyard, shattering a statue.

In the rubble, everything seemed to fall silent.

Then, suddenly!

A red-tinged aura exploded, scattering rubble like shrapnel in every direction!

Stones flew, tearing through trees and walls—a truly terrifying scene.

Hir, filled with rage, bared her demonic fangs and claws, growling, “Since you came looking for death, then die!”

She lunged at the One-Eyed Owl with savage speed.

Thankfully, her Boiling Blood Armor protected her wrist from being bitten through.

“Bang! Bang! Bang!”

A series of punches landed, forcing Hir to spit greenish fluid from her mouth.

Saliva splattered everywhere!

The sickening sound of muscle tearing and bones breaking was clear.

But this kind of attack, though not instantly lethal, only stoked Hir’s rage, intensifying her strength further.

Alice wasted no time; she activated Swallow Reversal again!

This time, she aimed for the heart!

“Thud!”

The sword struck true, piercing its target. But Alice didn’t retreat to her original spot.

Instead, she coldly commanded, “Sylph! Use Wind Piercing Kill!”

“Swish, swish, swish!”

The blade embedded in Hir’s body unleashed a surge of sword energy, driven by the power of the Wind Spirit, tearing through her insides.

Her organs were instantly shredded.

Her skin split open in numerous places, blood seeping through.

In mere moments, her entire body was reduced to a sieve.

Alice had developed this deadly strike through extensive study; if it hit the target, death was nearly certain.

But—

Hir’s mythic magic had one powerful attribute.

Each time her rage reached a new level, her body instantly regenerated, her attributes doubled.

Her defense, attack power, and health all surged dramatically!

This time!

The red-tinged fury transformed into pure red!

It enveloped the entire area surrounding the castle, shaking the forest with its fierce, overwhelming energy.

Seeing this, the One-Eyed Owl couldn’t help but gasp, “How can this be? Is she unkillable?!”

“I hadn’t wanted to fight you all, and Lady Nana never even took you seriously. Goblins, you could have kept living your lives in peace—why did you insist on courting death? Fine, I’ll grant you your wish!”

Hir’s voice rumbled like a beast’s roar, each word growled out with ferocity.

She gripped Alice’s sword firmly, attempting to snap it in half, but found it surprisingly resilient.

Under normal circumstances, with her red fury, she should’ve been able to destroy any world-class magical weapon bare-handed.

Suddenly, she sensed something within it. “Darkspawn? I didn’t expect such a filthy, wretched race to still exist. But no matter!”

She flung Alice backward.

But Alice floated like a butterfly, landing gracefully.

Sylph controlled the air currents, keeping her steady.

“Alice, find her weak spot and take her head! I’ll keep her occupied!”

The One-Eyed Owl flexed her wrist, eyes alight with fighting spirit.

She’d been longing for a powerful opponent who could actually go toe-to-toe with her. And here was the perfect match.

With a forceful step, she shattered a large section of ground beneath him!

In an instant, she had closed the distance, leaving afterimages in his wake.

“Bang!”

Though fast, Hir managed to throw a punch in time to block her.

Their fists collided, shattering the ground in a radius of several dozen meters around them!

The two of them brawled madly, a brutal, skill-less clash of raw power!

The sounds of their blows were deeply unsettling.

Alice watched from the side, waiting for an opportunity to land a fatal strike.

But the two were tangled so closely that her powerful sword risked harming the One-Eyed Owl as well.

She didn’t dare to make a reckless move.

This was exactly Hir’s strategy—fighting and constantly shifting position to prevent any ambush.

In this state, Alice had no options. Large-area attacks were entirely out of the question.

“Hmph, this kind of battle only makes me stronger!” Hir taunted.

Though clearly under pressure from the One-Eyed Owl, she remained unfazed, her excitement only growing!

Similarly, the One-Eyed Owl’s adrenaline spiked with each blow, her Boiling Blood Armor fueling her to grow stronger with every strike.

On a rooftop of the castle, Lin Tian observed, his expression cold. “Since that’s the case, I’ll make sure she doesn’t dare to feel anger again.”

Dealing with someone like this was easy.

This seemingly difficult trick had a simple solution.

So, he remained completely unfazed.

He broke through the roof and dropped into the palace.

“Who—who are you?” a small demon asked in terror, clinging tightly to an old demon beside him.

The old demon was frail, incapable of even walking and completely devoid of fighting strength.

Before he could speak, Lin Tian impaled him with a blood spear, pinning him to the palace wall.

Then Lin Tian turned to the two demons, sneering. “Can’t you tell? We’re the same, after all~”

Same kind—demon.

Though he wasn’t referring to their race.

“Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!”

Outside the palace, the brawl between the One-Eyed Owl and Hir grew more ferocious!

Both their eyes were blank white, their auras a deep red!

However, it seemed this was the One-Eyed Owl’s limit.

Hir, meanwhile, was gradually shifting to a blue rage!

“I’m going to turn the tables! You’re doomed!” she spat.

“Boom!”

Just then—

The palace cracked open from within.

It was accompanied by the pained cries of two small demons!

Lin Tian’s sinister grin widened. “Heh, heh, heh. As for who’ll win or lose, that’s still up in the air.”

Hearing this, Hir’s gaze snapped back to clarity. She spoke anxiously, “Let them go! You despicable goblin! Why are you doing this?”

“Despicable? Are you joking? Who was it who conspired with other demons to lay that vile curse on me?”

Lin Tian held the two small demons firmly in his grip.

Hir was about to respond when her gaze fell upon the wall deep inside the palace, where her grandfather hung, pinned and lifeless.

In an instant—

Her fury fully shifted into blue, surging like a raging ocean!

Everyone nearby felt a suffocating pressure, as though they were drowning!

“Crack!”

The sound of bone breaking echoed!

Lin Tian taunted in a mocking tone, “Oops, seems I got a little rough. You don’t mind, do you?”

“I’m going to kill you!” Hir’s rage flared even more wildly. Seeing the small demons writhing in agony, she prepared to charge Lin Tian and kill him instantly.

But the One-Eyed Owl and Alice stepped in to block her.

Lin Tian sneered, “Do you think you’ll kill me first? Or will I kill them first? In life, one should be a little more civil. If you keep letting that rage consume you, things could get… difficult.”

A bloodthirsty glint flashed in his eyes.

Just as he expected.

Hir’s blue aura began to falter. “I… I…”

She struggled desperately to suppress her anger, no longer daring to unleash it.

Seeing her hesitation, Lin Tian smiled with contempt. Handling someone like this was laughably simple.

Her weakness was utterly fatal.

It was almost a boring game.
