Malevolent Warlock: Sin Of Eternity

Chapter 25: Unexpected

Chapter 25: Unexpected

Leon breaking through to level 1 was bad. Very bad. At first, she believed Leon to be a formidable opponent with unparalleled talent, but as time went on, and she saw him fail to break through to level 1 time and time again.

This made her feel at ease. So what, that he was talented in battle and could use the legendary fu shu energy? Without talents in magic, he was just a waste of space. But oh was she feeling a bulk load of regret right now for that sentiment.

Leon had broken through. Their fight before was because she was severely injured, and could easily defeat him now, but if she let him continue his improvement, she didn't know what might happen.

(I have to kill him, but how?)

Arian thought in her mind.

Meanwhile, Leon was still in shock from his sudden breakthrough. From what he could infer, there was no reason at all for his breakthrough right now. He at least needed to do the same thing successfully 3 more times before he succeeded from his estimate.

"So how? " Leon said quietly.

There had to be a special variable. Things don't just happen, there was no such thing as luck.

—wissss

All of a sudden, Leon felt a fleshy mass wrap around his pinky finger and crawled into a ring.

(Where did you come from?)

Leon frowned. A small white snake had wrapped around his pinky finger like a child would cuddle up to its mother. It was strange, in this world creatures were usually hostile to other races except for certain circumstances.....

"The monster egg???" Leon reached into his robe and to his surprise...it had hatched.

(The unseen variable.....)

Leon mused. The Snake was the only variable he could think of, it conveniently hatched when he was breaking through? What other hints did he need?

"Still doesn't make sense, isn't it supposed to be a salamander type egg?"

He had gotten this monster egg from the kid who was fated to be the dragon rider. Fine, the possibility of it actually being the actual dragon salamander was quite low. But this wasn't even related.

This was a wimpy snake, the size of and oversized worm.

(Maybe it's special in its own way. I mean, it did help me breakthrough....)

Leon thought in his mind.

The egg wasn't the legendary dragon. That was disappointing, but it seemed to be special if it was able to help him breakthrough.

"Hm?"

While Leon was musing over what had just happened. He felt a gaze behind him threatening to tear a whole through his head.

He turned back, immediately met the vicious gaze of Arian.

—puuuu

For a brief few seconds, they stared at each other awkwardly...

"What? Is there something between my teeth?"

Leon asked with a sly smile on his face.

,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

In a luxurious tent made with the finest cloths on the opposite side of the hunter's camp. About six young men, with bruises of different degrees, could be seen seated around treating their injuries.

"Ouch!!! That hurt" one of the young men complained while he was being treated, by a nurse.

"Shut the hell up, and don't complain you piece of trash!!" from a bed in the middle of the tent a voice sounded as a youth with eyes akin to that of a supernova could be seen visibly boiling with anger.

His men had been brutalized in the most humiliating fashion he could think about. Leon made them feel like they were the ones doing the chasing, meanwhile he subtly created situations that caused them great harm.

"Sorry boss" Seeing the anger in the Eyes of Anan, the young man shut his mouth and stopped complaining. What happened, was truly humiliating, they had their assess handed to them by a filthy warlock.

—Whoop

As the young man apologized, the curtain to the tent swung open and a brutish man in metal amour entered the tent.

"You called for me sire?"

Immediately after the brutish warrior entered the tent, he fell on one knee in the direction of Anan.

"Yes, I did" Anan nodded his head meanwhile maintaining his look of annoyance. Normally acts like these would cause him to be very satisfied, but he was in an absolutely foul mood at this time.

"Then I am here to serve" raising his head to look at Anan the face of the brute was revealed. It was a man in his mid-twenties. He had a bit of black and gray hair hanging from his scalp, but what was most revealing about him was a massive gash on across his face.

It was an eyesore.

"You and that Arian b*tch have a past, right? " Anan asked the brutish man, Unknowingly striking a string in his heart. Immediately after hearing Arian's name, his mouth grew sour, and his face became ugly.

"Hmm!!" Among everyone in the hunter's camp, he was the most confident and handsome among them, he could never find someone that matched his grace and beauty, so he remained aloof half of the time.

At least, that was until he set his eyes on Arian for the first time. He couldn't control himself. He went straight to her and started to court her.

This proved to be a big mistake as on a random occasion while he was teasing her, she suddenly lashed out and entirely ruined his beauty. Ever since then, his life has taken a drastic turn for the worse.

"How long do you think you can hold her down for?" Anan said while looking intensely into the brutish man's eyes.

"I am not called Tamlins number one tanker for no reason, sire. Just give me the go ahead, and I'll hold her down as long as you like"

With an ugly smile on his face, the brutish man Affirmed to Anan that he was capable of doing his bidding. He just needed the go ahead.

"Good, then I want you to stay by my side for the next few days. I have something special in stall for that b*tch and that filthy Warlock."
