The Evolution of a Goblin to the Peak

I'm Alice Fambell, a student of Mage Class 1-B at Ladro Institute. People call me Alice.

I'm pretty much average in school. I didn't plan to get attention and simply live a normal here in this country, the Hebrei Kingdom.

The Hebrei Kingdom is a large country that houses at least one god-level powerhouse. The level of country in this land is divided into three ranks. The small country, large country, and the great country.

Small country is the weakest of all. There are countless small countries in this land and their population built up more than fifty percent of all the people here. But then, they aren't included in the map of the Giza Continent. Why? Because a small country could be destroyed at any time so they didn't bother putting them on the map. Only a detailed map of that part of land included them.

Large country is one what they called a country that stood for more than a century that raised a god-level powerhouse. A god-level powerhouse is an indication that one country becomes a large country. There are instances that the said "god" didn't stay in their country. They would roam around and only stay in the place that they wanted.

One could say the basis of these ranks is all about how many god-level powerhouses a country has. No matter a strong a military power of a country, as long as a god appeared it could wipe it out.

That's the reason why I decided to stay in a large country. A small country is prone to danger while a great country has dozens of gods which could sense me. And I don't want that to happen so the only choice is a large country.

Well, I'm really glad that I've chosen the Hebrei Kingdom among the other large countries in the world.

In this place, I've met Souta, Bryan, Lumilia, Lynn, Yujin, Cluster, Yuko, and Brando which I could call my friends.

Friends? That's a pleasant thing to hear.

At first, I give them a cold look but then I realized that they are quite nice to get along with. I started to talk to them and slightly work with them.

What surprises me is that everyone in class went to the Gripin City when they heard that class rep, Lumilia, have a problem.

I found that the rigid class rep is worried. She's not worried about herself but her classmate. So the class rep who always lectured her classmate can have that look. I thought that she is just a spoiled aristocrat but my impression of her changed.

She's desperately fighting to change her fate and everyone is helping her.

Aside from her, I also noticed Souta. This one demi, who should be weaker than me but kept improving himself. At that time, I can't believe that he risked and fought a powerful nobleman for his classmates. He drunk a monster potion that placed him in a coma for a few weeks.

The outcome of that battle is that everyone managed to take class rep back with the cost of her father expelling her from the household.

After that, I kept watching the small group that they've formed. They always look happy and having fun every time I see them in class. I never got bored of it.

Well, I'm slightly jealous of them. I want to that and this too... Because I never got to have fun like that when I'm in my homeland.

I wanted to join them but I'm different from them. I'm hiding a huge secret.

Then, another special test had come... This time it's a practical fighting in the wilderness. We're going to live in a land without any money and we're going to hunt for our food.

I'm quite experienced with this but what about the other people... Well, they did great and everyone worked under class rep's command. Should I say, Souta? Everyone knows that class rep is the leader but Souta is the one who's commanding her.

Oho? What is he? A shadow leader of the class? It fits his element perfectly.

But then, a problem occurred.

A bunch of people appeared and tried to kill everyone. Souta and the rest tried everything but the opponents this time were simply too powerful.

Everyone almost died and Souta got angry at that time. He released intense bloodlust. It felt like he killed millions of people with his own hands. That's the feeling I've got when I saw it.

It was fearsome. I felt I was standing in front of a war army leader of our homeland.

In the end, Teacher Bargan arrived and saved everyone's life. A lot of people are grateful to Souta for buying time.

It was at that time that I joined their little group. Later on, we named our group the Dark Oculus Legion. Well, I'm quite happy that they invited me.

The rise of the Dark Oculus Legion is simply amazing but it brought us some trouble.

The nobles.

We wage a legion war to the opposing nobles and guess what? Of course, we won. It's simply amazing to see a small group growing into an organization that could rival those nobles.

Not just the legion, everyone in the legion is simply amazing. Their growth is unbelievable. Their power level reached B-ranks and it kept growing stronger.

I need to train harder and keep up with everyone.

Most of this could be credited to our leader, Souta. He's a man with a good battle sense and had a lot of experience. His movements in battle are unpredictable. He had a lot of weird combinations of spells and combat arts that put a lot of people in shame. Also, he knows a lot of things.

Spells and combat arts. I've got to say that he knew hundreds of this.

I've got to say that he's the most talented person that I've ever seen. Even those genius in my homeland isn't Souta's match at all in terms of growth speed.

Hu...!! He will be able to match my true form if this keeps up.

Speaking of my true form. Yeah, I'm actually a demon from the Demon's Land. My true name is Alicia Remeri Lucifer. I'm the third daughter of the Great Demon Emperor Lucifer.

Feel shocked? Well, yeah. I'm a princess of one of the most powerful countries of the Demon's Land. I've got to say that my country can rival one of the great countries in this land.

While I'm proud of it, I'm feeling concerned at the same time. My father is a very ambitious person. So when the barrier opened up, I'm sure that he will not sit idly.

Let me explain the state of the Demon Land's first. The Demon's Land is a land that is so large that it houses more than three billion demons. There are three Demon Emperors and six Demon Kings on this land. My father is one of the Demon Emperors.

My father resides in the place called Heavenly Demon Palace. His forces are so large that it could easily wipe out one of the large countries in this land.

Under his rule, there are a total of seventy armies. Each army is commanded by a Demon Pillar. Demon Pillar? I've got to say that a demon who ascended is called a demon pillar. In the words of humans and demis, it means that they reached godhood.

A total of seventy god-level powerhouses. That's why I said that a large country couldn't rival my country at all.

I'm a demon and I'm hiding it pretty well. I know that I've got to tell my friends about it before it became too late. The demon is only a legend in Giza Continent. But the problem is that all the books about a demon are telling that they are pure evil.

They are wrong about that. Just like humans and demis, there are good demons and bad demons. Well, it all depends on how people see it. It's impossible for a single race to be entirely bad. Each one is unique and they possessed different personalities. Some want money and some aren't. Some are criminals and some aren't. Some want a normal life and some want a luxurious life. Everyone is different and have their own preference.

But then they are all loyal to the one they decided to serve. A swear or an oath power that they've had. A people from ancient times called this a Demon's Contract. I still haven't had my oath, swear, demon's contract, or whatever they called it.

I just hope that my friends accept me for what I am. I will find an opportunity to tell them about it.
