‘Swoosh’
Leo continued to run towards the Emberfields, which he assumed to be the safest place for him to survive for the remaining days in the Beastnet.
‘Should I enter the territory directly?’
It took twenty minutes for Leo to reach the Emberfields; however, he didn’t enter the territory directly.
‘Even though the Emberfields is a the safest place for me to survive from the three bestial rulers, I don’t want to place my full trust on those flaming lions that were arrogant and prideful.’
Leo found a well-hidden place nearby and decided to hide for a while.
‘I just need to wait for 15 minutes for my level 9 skills to come out of the cooldown. Moreover, I am very close to the Emberfields. So, no one from the other races would bother me.’
Leo remained in the Heavenly Flaming Lion form as he hid.
‘Earlier I receive a Beast Soul Stone, I wonder which beast soul is stored in it.’
Leo received a system reward when he was teleported to the Marsh Lands for killing all the level 2 spider captains. It was a Beast Soul Stone, and he was curious about the Beast soul stored in it.
‘Ding,
Item Name: Beast Soul Stone.
Soul Stored: Lightning Cat.
Even when Leo was in the Flaming Lion form, he could use all the system features without any problem.-.
Hence, when he thought about the beast’s soul stored in the Beast Soul Stone, the system showed its information.
‘Lightning Cat? Looks like it can not only awaken the soul of a weapon or artifact but it will also increase the attacking power.’
Among the elements, the Lightning element is known for its high damage power. Therefore, Leo concluded that by using the soul stone, his weapon would gain additional damage.
‘Even though I have the rank 9 Battle-axe, I don’t want to use the soul stone on it as my chances of using that weapon are less.’
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtLeo didn’t bother to use the Beast Soul Stone on the rank 9 Battle-axe because he had a quasi-supreme rank Battle-axe.
However, he could not use the Beast Soul Stone on the quasi-supreme rank Battle-axe because of the limitations of the stone.
‘Using it on the [Arcane Silver] is useful as it would not increase its rank higher than rank 9 anyway. I will just wait until I get a good artifact.’
After thinking for some time, Leo decided to think about this Beast Soul Stone when he got his hands on a good artifact.
“Who is there?”
After 10 minutes, Leo’s hiding place was discovered by a rank 9 Flaming Lion on patrolling duty.
“Huh?”
However, it became serious when that rank 9 Flaming Lion saw that the beast hiding in the bushes was none other than one of their own.
“How did you come out of the training ground before reachin the rank 9?”
Unlike the Flaming Lion King, who could tell that Leo was not one of their own, the rank 9 flaming lion could not tell the difference.
It misunderstood Leo as one of the rank 6 flaming lions from their territory and asked how it escaped its training.
All four bestial races in the Beastnet were not allowed to leave their territory until they became rank 9 beast heroes. It was for the sake of the beastlings that might get prematurely killed by the other bestial races of the wild monsters from the wilderness.
Nevertheless, these beastlings were given strict training in ‘How to hunt alone and in groups’, ‘How to use the awakened talents and skills, and many other lessons.
“I…I don’t know.”
Leo acted a little bit anxious and shook his head.
“Since the territory is busy, you might have escaped when your instructor was called by his majesty. Before you get caught, slowly follow behind me.”
That rank 9 flaming lion asked Leo to silently follow behind him to escape the punishment imposed on the beastlings that escaped from their training.
‘Huh? Training? Instructor? Getting caught?’
Even though Leo didn’t understand everything the rank 9 flaming lion said, he understood one thing, ‘I am being mistaken as one of their own.’
‘Good. I will just play along with them for 15 minutes and I will reveal my identity.’
With that thought in mind, Leo silently followed behind the rank 9 flaming lion.
They didn’t enter the Emberfields directly; instead, they walked on the edge of the territory.
Leo didn’t think much about it and silently followed the flaming lion as he thought, ‘If he tries anything funny, I don’t mind transforming back into human to kill it.’
“Skye, did you find another escaped beastling?”
As they walked for a few minutes, they encountered another rank 9 flaming lion who asked the rank 9 flaming lion he was following.
“Keep quiet. If that b*stard Miles finds out, he would make a scene over nothing and make this little one suffer until he becomes a rank 9 beast hero.”
Skye shook his head and asked the other rank 9 flaming lion to remain silent.
“Well…well. How many times did I tell you to report me whenever there is an escaped Beastling?”
From a distance, a level 1 supreme-ranked flaming lion walked towards them and asked Skye.
“Miles, there is no need to punish the beastling. The training is already ….”
“Shut up. I am no longer a mere patrolling guard. I am the leader of the patrolling guards. So, stand aside and let me punish this beastling for escaping from the training grounds.”
Before Skye could finish his words, Miles scoffed at him and looked at Leo with eyes full of lust.
‘Damn it…why am I having a bad premonition in my heart?’
Leo felt uncomfortable looking at the supreme-ranked flaming lion that was walking toward him.
“Wait a second. I am not an escaped Beastling or whatsoever.”
‘Swoosh’
Without wasting any time, Leo canceled his talent [Heavenly Flaming Lion Transformation] and said, “I came here with the Heir.”
At the same time, he summoned the lion cub out of the Beast Storage Device.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“Prince Lionel.”
When they saw the lion cub, the three flaming lions were shocked before becoming excited.
“Uncle Skye, I am back.”
The lion cub rushed towards Skye with great excitement, and Skye patted the cub’s head.
“Prince Lionel, are you alright? You must have suffered a lot in the wilderness.”
Miles hurriedly pushed Skye aside and said, “His Majesty is currently looking for you. Why don’t we go and meet minister Ren?”
“Sure. Let’s go and meet uncle Ren.”
Ren was his uncle by blood. So, Lionel was excited to meet him, who could communicate with his father over long distances.
“As for you two, go back and continue your patrol.”
Miles hurriedly sent the rank 9 flaming lions away.
“Benefactor, let’s go.”
Miles looked at Leo, who was transformed into a human and asked him to follow.
“Let’s go, Brother Leo.”
Lion cub jumped into Leo’s arms and excitedly said, “Watch how I repay you with so many invaluable treasures.”
‘…’
Leo remained silent and followed behind the supreme-ranked flaming lion named Miles.
For some reason, the bad premonition in his heart still didn’t disappear, making him remain alert.
“Minister Ren, I brought the Heir.”
Soon, they were guided to a den, and as soon as they entered, Miles excitedly informed the huge flaming lion inside the den.
“Good. Now, kill the human.”
A majestic voice resounded from the depths of the den, ordering Miles to kill Leo.
