[801-1000] THE EVOLUTION OF A GOBLIN TO THE PEAK

Chapter 847 Tribe Leaders

The girl knew that the man that was looking at her was dangerous. She couldn't help but tremble as her instinct screamed at her.

"Can you tell us why these guys are chasing you?" Souta asked as he pointed his fingers at the Four-Arm men on the ground. "If you tell us, then we aren't gonna harm you."

"I..." The girl was about to say something when Souta interrupted her.

"Oops, I forgot to tell you that I have the ability to detect lies so once you lie to me you should know what will happen to you," Souta said as he slowly put his thumbs on his neck and gestured to slit her if she made a wrong decision.

The girl gulped. Her forehead was full of sweat and her hands were trembling nonstop. She slowly opened her mouth and said, "I... I am Emina, daughter of Rigoru, the Chief of the Goat Tribe. These people are from the Four-Arm Tribe. They wanted to capture me so that they could control my father. They wanted the whole Goat Tribe to submit to them."

Souta raised his hand to stop the girl from continuing. He looked at Elder Hanmi and motioned him to start asking questions.

The girl didn't tell a single lie. She was really the daughter of the Goat Tribe.

Elder Hanmi stepped forward and asked, "Tell us the status of your Goat Tribe. If these guys wanted your tribe to submit to them then it must be powerful."

"Y-Yes... Earthen Woods housed hundreds of different tribes. Among those tribes, ten tribes stood among the rest. Our tribe is one of those ten. My father, Rigoru, is one of the few Two Shackles Realm of the Earthen Woods." Emina said.

"So basically you're a princess. I thought that the tribe in this land is unified so what happened to them?" Elder Hanmi asked another question.

Emina slowly answered, "A few months ago, the hidden Tanuki Tribe had appeared. They unified all the tribes in the Earthen Woods in the blink of an eye."

'Tanuki Tribe...' Souta rubbed his chin.

If he wasn't wrong, most of the tanukis were living around the territory of Takamagahara. Amatsukami, the abode of the Heavenly Gods such as Amaterasu and Susanoo.

Takamagahara was far from Olympus. There were several Holy Lands and Large Countries between them.

So there was a tribe of tanukis in this land too.

It's not surprising since he could find various races in different lands. The same for monsters, there were goblins here and there were also goblins in other lands.

Emina continued, "The Tanuki Tribe decided to expand. They brought out tons of resources as they tried to strengthen the overall might of the Earthen Woods. While everyone was preparing, chaos occurred. A battle broke out and it destroyed several dozens of villages across the land. The culprit was two outlanders. People dubbed them as Golden Fist and Face Changing Demon. In the end, the tribe leader of the Hawk Tribe had to personally appear just to stop the two outlanders.

"It brought rage as hundreds of innocent people died in that event. Since various tribes experienced a boost in their strength thanks to the resources provided by the Tanuki Tribe, they decided to take revenge. They wanted to expand the territory of the Earthen Woods. A war occurred as they fought the outlanders. Various tribes sent their forces yet the Tanuki Tribe didn't even send a single one of their expert. You should probably know the outcome of the war. We are defeated."

The unified tribe lost a huge part of its military prowess. They lost several Shackles Realm experts and hundreds of Solidifying Realm experts. It was a huge blow to all of the tribes in the Earthen Woods. They pulled back their forces after the chaotic event on the battleground.
