Chapter 363: Suitability (1/2)
”Leonel! Leonel!”
No matter how they shouted Leonel's name, it didn't seem to matter in the slightest. The one who attacked him must have wanted him dead, there was no other explanation.
The appearance of a Third Dimensional Emperor was too conspicuous. The number who wanted to take advantage of Leonel's weakness was likely not few. It was simply too easy for those Fourth Dimensional monsters to kill Leonel secretly without any of them being any wiser.
It couldn't be said that these three would live and die with Leonel. How could they? They had only just met.
Jerach was practically Leonel's slave now while the two women only had a small bit of budding feelings. It wasn't to the point of risking their lives.
Yet, all three of them still uncontrollably ran to Leonel's side when they saw his current state. It was clear they all had a good impression of him.
The little mink scrambled from Leonel's head, landing on his face and nudging him continuously.
The energy continued to rampage throughout Leonel's mind. But, it seemed to notice that it couldn't shatter the barriers of Leonel's Ethereal Glabella after a few attempts.
How could it? After awakening his Wisdom Branch, Leonel's mind had already become capable of housing Fifth Dimensional Soul Force. Even though he had yet to come in contact with Fifth Dimensional Force, it didn't change this fact. When comparing the sturdiness of one's Ethereal Glabella, Leonel was unmatched on Terrain and Earth.
Seemingly realizing this, the energy changed its target, aiming for the Embryos that hung vulnerably within the hidden world.
By now, Leonel had already formed many Embryos.
A transparent spear stood for his Spear Embryo. A Twelve Pointed Star silently whirred for his Snowy Star Owl Lineage Factor. A bronze-violet halo represented his Metal Synergy Lineage Factor…
Among them, the one that took up the most space was a bow. Harsh and violent cold winds surged around it, making it difficult even to approach. It seemed ready to tear anything that did apart.
It was this group that the energy surged toward, ready to tear it apart.
Without hesitation, it targeted Leonel's Twelve Pointed Star first. It could sense that its healing characteristic could become a problem should it be allowed to continue. So, how could it not target it first?
But, it was at the very moment it made contact that things suddenly changed.
A hidden scarlet energy was stirred. It had hidden itself deeply within the Twelve Pointed Star. No, it was more accurate to say that they had completely fused.
The instant the energy came into contact with this scarlet Force, it collapsed. There was no suspense, no hard fought battle, no teetering on the edge of life and death…
Just like that, it was snuffed out.
The moment this energy was destroyed, Leonel's eyes shot open, his heart beating heavily as though trying to escape his chest.
He sat up, catching Little Blackstar before he fell to the ground.
Leonel smiled, a sight that looked a bit gruesome considering the blood running down his nose and ears.
”It's alright, I'm fine, I'm fine.” Leonel comforted the little mink.
