However, the moment Leo steps his feet away from the mess that he had created, an explosion suddenly sounded behind him.

He quickly turned his head around to look back. Immediately after, he became shock from the sudden appearance of a Heavy Armored Knight.

This Heavy Armored Knight wasn't with them before. No! To be exact, the Knight wasn't a part of those escorting soldiers, but one of the men of the Black Bees.

With a few swings from the Heavy Armored Knight's greatsword, he had swiftly eliminated all the Magical Beast around. After saving the five soldiers from their death, the Heavy Armored Knight suddenly stared at Leo's direction, full of killing intent in his eyes. Obviously, he had already noticed Leo's existence from the very beginning.

Being stared at by such a powerful Knight, Leo didn't panic at all. He just stood still on his spot while responding wity a cold stare towards the Heavy Armored Knight's direction.

”Found you!” The Heavy Armored Knight silently murmured to himself before charging towards Leo's direction, following behind him were the five soldiers.

Looking at them charging towards him, Leo didn't hesitate for any second as he quickly slips away from his place. Although he could fight the five soldiers from before, the Heavy Armored Knight was a totally different story.

After observing the Heavy Armored Knight, he was certain that the Knight was what they called as, Magical Knights.

At that time the Heavy Armored Knight arrived, Leo could see from his location the fiery flames along with the Knight's every slash to the Magical Beast. Base in his memory, only Magical Knights were capable of doing such a feat.

He had long heard before that it wasn't only Mages that were fighting in the battlefield of the War of Races, but also other types of warriors, such as the Magical Knight currently chasing after him.

Base on the information that he had learned about the Magical Knights, such Knights were unique. They are capable of manipulating Mana the same as the Mages, hence being able to execute powerful techniques and some sort of Magic spells.

However, the Magical Knight could only be granted such power through the Mages that they had sworn loyalty. Moreover, Magical Knights, although not being a Mage, was actually much more powerful than Mages. The reason was simple, such type of Knights needed the nurturing of Mages to become stronger, so making them much more powerful than the Mages is a logical thing to do in order to better protect the Mages from any possible danger that they will encounter along their path.

Moreover, the most important thing about this unique Magical Knights is that the moment an ordinary Knight becomes a Magical Knight, all their attributes would also be enhanced beyond ordinary. Not only could they execute a powerful technique and cast Magic spells, but they also have the strength akin to One Star Magical Beast or higher ranking Magical Beast, base on the Mage that they swore loyalty.

That was the exact reason why Leo was frantically running back to their cave at this moment. After all, fighting the Magical Knight was a stupid thing to do, especially with his capability. Even with the use of his Earth Elementals, it would still be impossible to fight with the Magical Knight. He might have killed the One Star Magical Beast Sewer Lizard from before, but that was only because it was seriously injured at that time. The Lizard was close to death. Hence, it doesn't have anymore energy to defend itself from any danger and was only waiting to die.

Also, Leo doesn't know the level of the Magical Knight chasing after him. So, it's indeed really stupid of him to think of fighting the Magical Knight.

While running, Leo purposely passed through the traps he had set up a while ago. Although, he was aware that it was next to impossible to kill the Magical Knight with the traps he had set, delaying the Magical Knight was still possible. Time was the most important thing right now for him.

Why?

The sooner he arrives to Cassandra and the others, the higher the chances they would be able to successfully escape.
