Chapter 228: The Void Eater’s sudden appearance (1/2)

”That was such a dangerous situation!” Charlotte's voice out behind Leo.

”Trust me, we would face another situation like that as we continue on this journey. So, prepare yourself to save everyone.” Leo replied.

In the past, when it was still his first time entering the Hundred Hills, he had nearly experienced such a dangerous situation for nearly 5 times before he finally arrived at the headquarters of the Mischievous Lion organization. However, in their case right now, they would be continuing their travel to Heart city after arriving at the Mischievous Lion organization's Headquarters, so they should be experiencing such a dangerous situation for 8 to 10 times until they finally arrived at Heart city.

Though there is actually nothing to worry about, since if he could successfully ask for Sagittarius Sandra's help, the Mountain Gorillas would most likely be coming along with them in the journey, bringing its own army of Stone Monkeys and Stone Apes.

Suddenly, Charlotte raised her hand, immediately making Leo and the others stop in their tracks.

”I sense a Magical Beast with an unknown power slowly approaching us...” Charlotte warned as she quickly took out her Twin Glorious Daggers.

Leo and the others quickly followed after. It would definitely be a powerful Magical Beast if it's capable of causing a 9 Star Battle Mage like Charlotte to become cautious.

*Rustle! *Rustle!

*Whooosh!

”Leooooo!”

Out of nowhere, a small black flying Magical Beast came out of the bush while screaming out Leo's name.

”Prepare yourself!” Charlotte firmly holds his Twin Glorious Daggers.

”Quickly stop, that's Levi, my Beast Companion!” Leo quickly put his hand on Charlotte's shoulder to stop her, but Charlotte didn't react and her eyes were also not looking at Levi but instead something behind Levi.

Obviously, with Charlotte's years of experience, she was long aware of the existence of Beast Companions, even talking Beast Companions. And hearing the small flying Magical Beast screaming for Leo's name in obvious fear, it was pretty easy for her to guess that the Magical Beast is Leo's Beast Companion. The thing she was cautious about wasn't that, but the Magical Beast currently chasing after Leo's Beast Companion.

Arriving beside Leo, Levi quickly hid behind while his body was shaking out of fear.

*Whooosh!

Moments later, another black Magical Beast with the same size as Levi and also a black-colored wing came out shooting straight towards Levi.

”Voi... Void Eater!” Ahmed, who saw the small black Magical Beast, suddenly exclaimed in horror. This was the same Magical Beast who had attacked him when he was still young, the one that had caused his cultivation to have trouble in improving.

Hearing Ahmed's exclamation, Leo's face turned solemn as he quickly warned everyone about the Void Eater, ”Watch out, the Void Eater likes to eat Magic Power and it would then cause problems in your cultivation afterward!”

Charlotte, Princess Elaine, Jeffrey, Matt, Venice, and Number 1 to Number 10 quickly prepared themselves to fight against the so-called Void Eater.

”Leo quickly beat that fatty. It bullied me when I was trying to get stronger back at Twilight Forest, huhuhu...” Levi cried out behind Leo.

The reason why Levi hasn't appeared in this past few days was simply because he decided to stay back in Twilight Forest to develop himself to become stronger. Hence, Leo became surprised the moment he saw the little one out of nowhere.

”Bullied?” Leo dubiously asked.

”Yes! It tried to steal my food, followed me everywhere, and even annoy me all day, so please stop that fatty!” Levi replied.

”So, it didn't attack you or have any intention of killing you?” Leo quickly became curious.

”Of course not, that fatty was only pestering me because of a smell!” Levi rolled his eyes.

”What smell?”

”I don't know...”

Looking at the Void Eater, Leo then noticed that its eyes seemingly looked like it lit up brightly before it then dives straight towards Ahmed. It just unexpectedly ignored Charlotte and the others, seemingly like it doesn't give any sort of care to them.

”Ahhhh!” Ahmed quickly started running away to escape from the Void Eater.

However, the Void Eater seemingly doesn't want to let Ahmed escape as it relentlessly pursued behind him.

”Leo, help me!” Ahmed quickly runs towards Leo.

Seeing this, Charlotte immediately blocked in front of Leo.

”Go behind me!” Charlotte said.

Ahmed quickly followed after as he dashed to the left of Charlotte.

The Void Eater quickly wanted to follow, but it was suddenly blocked by Charlotte's attack.

*Whoosh!

The Void Eater dodged, but a dagger then suddenly appeared in front of it, making it dodge once again.

Charlotte kept on attacking the Void Eater, and the Void Eater kept on dodging Charlotte's attack.

Soon after, seemingly realizing that Charlotte has become so annoying and that it doesn't have any time to play around with her, the Void Eater then disappeared and instantaneously appeared right beside Ahmed.

Ahmed who has just calmed himself frantically blocked with his shield before he swiftly swings his sword, aiming towards the Void Eater.

Unexpectedly though, the Void Eater actually didn't mind it. In fact, it just stopped mid-air, seemingly showing a smirking face, and waiting for the sword to hit it.

*Bang!

Contrary to everyone's expectations, Ahmed's sword was actually repelled away by some kind of Magical Barrier.
