The brief respite during the war was a valuable time. Thanks to it I was able to return to the western region after fortifying the borders.

After all the battles we’ve been through, it wouldn’t have been strange if I evolved, but nothing happened.

Maybe it’s the class limit, but I don’t know. After all, none of my subordinates have gotten this far in their evolution.

Hence, there’s really no point in thinking about it. If there was a known way around it, that would be another story, but alas… It’s

better to just put it off for now, at least until after I’ve dealt with the more pressing mountain of problems before me.

We just defeated Elrain Kingdom’s army the other day, but that victory was already discussed at Sanktfall, the meeting of the feudal lords, where the continued cooperation between us and the feudal lords was confirmed, as well as the benefits of our cooperation.

Zaurosh, who was now truly our ally, reported to me the contents of their meeting, and I nodded in response. Actually, I really need to find out just how much the small feudal lords can be trusted since they aren’t like the goblins who follow me absolutely. Of course, if they try to collude with the enemies and revolt against me, then I’ll have to deal with them more harshly.

“Your Majesty, it is time,” Gi Za said.

“Very well,” I replied.

When Gi Za called out to me, I remembered that I still had to perform our usual practice of giving names, which I have been doing these past few days. Of course, I also mustn’t forget to check the classes of the goblins while at it.

Speaking of which, Gi Za himself has also evolved and now looks different.

Race: Goblin

Level: 5

Class: Wizard; Subleader

Possessed Skills:

Flowing Magic Control; Three-Verse Chant; Five Arias; Chant Cancel; Guidance of the Goddess of Knowledge; Wind Guard; Adherent of the King; Wind Control; Ether Transference; Trickery

Divine Protection: Wind God

Attributes: Wind

Abnormal Status: Haunted/Possessed

Five Arias

With the addition of the Five Arias, it is now possible to control even greater ether.

Trickery

Incur the hate of those of the light elements. (WEAK)

As your knowledge increases, it will eventually be possible to speak multiple languages.

Considering his new skills, he seems suited to be a staff officer. The humans won’t like him very much, but he should be among goblins.

Still, I have to say. His looks are really starting to resemble that of humans or elves. Pale countenance, a pair of razer-sharp eyes, and long gray hair tied together that probably functions as a place to store ether.

Why did he end up looking like this? I wonder.

He looks so much like a human that it makes one wonder whether he’s truly a goblin.

Slender and yet strong.

Of course, there were certainly some very curious parts, but I purposely refrained from saying anything.

That damned vixen, Altesia!

Gi Ji is always at the battlefield, so it comes to no surprise that he evolved. Maybe it’s because he’s a goblin inclined to scouting that he gained the night god’s divine protection. His attribute is darkness too. It doesn’t look like he’s being influenced by his divine protection, though, at least based on his normal behavior.

Is that because he’s a duke class? Or is Gi Ji’s self control just that good? Regardless, this is a good development since it means that as

one evolves, the less influence the divine protection will have on one’s psyche.

Until now I’ve been ignoring it, but considering how difficult the coming battles are, it might be time to start looking for a way to gain divine protections.
