Chapter 141: I just need to become...

"Does that mean I would have to waste time?" Dawn said.

Dawn didn't want to waste time anymore. After all, he wanted everything right now.

Dawn even wanted to storm the Five Great Clans to make those goblins his!

That was why Dawn was currently focusing on making himself stronger.

That was why Dawn was currently making efforts to make the village rise again.

That was why Dawn ordered Karkas to focus on things that matter, such as reproduction and information.

After all, Dawn wanted this day to be the day when he would get the Five Great Clans and learn everything.

Of course, that was due to his rage, and Dawn knew that what he wanted was impossible to achieve.

Either way, Dawn didn't like wasting time, and that was why he asked once more.

"Is there any way to master Aura even though I am at Count rank right now?"

Dawn wanted to master Aura right now so that when he becomes Duke rank, he would be able to use Presence right away.

That way, he would save time, and he would be able to become stronger, even if a little bit.

That would also mean that he would be able to find the mystery of the Duke rank faster since he doesn't have anything to do with Aura anymore.

What's more, Dawn would also be able to step into the realm of Presence and learn it.

However, it seems that Moris couldn't do anything, even if it were for his king.

"No...unfortunately, even with my knowledge, there is no way for you to master Aura as of now."

"The only thing that you could do is to familiarize yourself with Aura so that when you become Duke, you would be able to finish mastering it faster."

And when he heard that, Dawn immediately started thinking.

After all, there was something that doesn't make sense.

And that was Moris could just teach him since Moris seems to know how to use Presence.

"Don't you know Presence? That must mean you have mastered Aura, right? Can't you just tell me how to master Aura so that I can master it now?"

This seems to be reasonable, and this seems to be even the best possible solution to this problem.

After all, Moris already knew, and he just had to give the answers to Dawn.

It's not like there's a law in the goblin world or goblin mind that one couldn't share the secrets of the strong.

What's more, the one who would be taught is the king! Dawn isn't just any other goblin but is the king of goblins. That was why it just doesn't make sense if Moris doesn't teach him.

However, it seems that was not the reason, as Moris proved it.

"That is not the reason why I can't teach you how to master the Aura, Your Highness."

"It is something more...unreasonable than that."

"It is because...the body of a Count is something that just cannot learn the secrets of Aura."

"The Count is a rank where goblins learn various techniques of Aura."

Moris then put up two fingers in his hand as he continued speaking.

One of them lit up with a bright light. It was something similar to the Aura that Dawn uses.

After all, it is Aura.

"This is Aura. There are many ways to use Aura, and the rank where you learn it more efficiently is Count."

The second finger then lit up! However, it isn't as bright as how Aura is.

The second light looked comparably weaker than Aura, but that was not the case.

This was the Presence, which Moris used to kill a Warmen before and is one of the most deadly weapons that goblins have in their arsenal.

"This is Presence. Presence is a power where you could apply what you know of Aura. Of course, it is much more powerful than Aura."

"And because it is more powerful, there is a proper process in learning it."

"One must know everything there is to know about Aura before jumping to the Presence."

"To simplify it, your body right now cannot master the Aura as it is just for learning."

The light in Moris' fingers disappeared as the wind blew. He finished his explanation, and he put down his hand.

Moris knew how unreasonable what he said. The reason why Dawn couldn't master Aura is that his body right now was just for learning.

If that isn't unreasonable, then Moris don't know what is.

What's more, the way Moris talked about it seems like it was something inevitable.

Well, it was really inevitable.

Goblins only have their bodies to rely on, and this is something that Dawn even admits himself.

However, what would happen if you put limits on the goblin's body?

It would be pandemonium. However, it's not like there's no hope in this situation.

There was something that could be considered a straightforward answer.

In fact, it was much better than forcing to learn or master the Aura in this stage.

And that was...

"I just need to become Duke, right?"

Right, Dawn just needs to become a Duke, and the problems that they have right now would be gone like a pop.

After all, if Dawn were a Duke, he would be able to master Aura, and then he would be able to jump to Presence right after.

Of course, Dawn knew that he just became Count a few days ago, but Dawn didn't care about that.

After all, it's not like there's a law saying that one can not evolve again right after evolving.

Of course, when Dawn mentioned it, Moris also thought of it.

That was why he had his eyes wide open right now as he murmured.

"Y-yes, Your Highness..."

After all, Moris couldn't believe that there was a simple solution to this problem.

No, he just never tried to think of it that way. After all, goblins try to adjust to their bodies after evolving.

From what Moris observed in the past night, he knew that Dawn just evolved.

After all, he wasn't used to his powers at all, and that was why Moris never thought of Dawn evolving again.

It was almost like an iron rule to the goblins that one must adjust and train first before evolving.

Of course, Dawn was not an exception to that. However, in this situation, even Dawn would not be picky.

Even if Dawn has not learned anything related to Aura or mastered his body right now, Dawn would bypass that rule.

Dawn would do anything just to gain new power. He would do anything to make himself stronger than anybody.

He would even go to the heavens itself if there were something that could make him powerful there!

Something like evolving again even though he hasn't adjusted to his body is nothing.

That was why Dawn spoke once more with conviction.

"How strong are you, Moris?"

And when Moris heard that, he became confused. After all, he didn't expect that Dawn would ask this.

If a goblin has submitted to the king, there is no way to turn that back.

That was why there was no need to learn Moris' strength.

At least, that's Moris' thoughts on the matter.

"I'm pretty strong, Your Highness..."

"If I may be so rude, I believe I am stronger than you."

"Well, that's obvious." Dawn said as he interrupted Moris.

After all, it was obvious that Moris would be stronger than Dawn.

Moris could use Presence, and it could be said that he already mastered Aura.

There's no way Dawn, who was just starting to learn about Aura, would be stronger than Moris, who was leagues above him.

"What I'm trying to ask is that...you're confident in yourself, right?"

"You're confident in beating any monster in this forest."

As Moris was strong, he could beat any monster in this forest. However, if Moris weren't confident in doing so, that would mean nothing.

After all, if one were a coward and facing a blade, there's no way the coward would win.

That was why Dawn was trying to ascertain things so that his plan would go smoothly.

"Yes, Your Highness. As long as the monsters we are talking about are the ones in the north, I believe I could wipe out anything."

Although Moris wasn't confident about the monsters that are located in the south, he was confident when it comes to monsters in the north.

After all, those monsters would be weaker compared to Moris overall.

"Good answer." Dawn said as he turned his body.

Although there were still many things to do in the village, this would take priority.

After all, this was connected to his strength. And Dawn's strength is also the village's strength.

That was why Dawn once more spoke as he ordered Moris.

"You will come with me."

"Yes?" Moris said as he couldn't understand the situation.

However, Dawn didn't care about that as he continued speaking.

"You will defeat the monsters for me and help me become Duke."

Kuhahahaha! Dawn laughed as he thought of how easy it would be.

How easy it would be for him to achieve evolution once more.
