After searching for tens or so of minutes, Leo finally found a small box inside the drawer of Boss Nuwyuse's study table, which is located opposite side from where Boss Nuwyuse was right now.
Without wasting any more time, Leo immediately ordered one of the Wind Elementals to check what's inside the small box.
Soon, the Wind Elemental reported to him the good news.
"Bingo!" Leo slowly formed a mischievous smile on his face.
Inside the small box were the 150 pieces of Storage Rings. To be more exact, there were only 120 pieces of Storage Rings there, while the other 30 pieces were put inside a separate corner of the small box, most likely to differentiate the two.
"The only problem left now is how to kill Boss Nuwyuse without causing any commotion that will attract the attention of the nearby Bandits," Leo thought to himself as he began pondering hard about a plan on his mind.
Crossing Boss Nuwyuse's effective range would definitely cause his presence to get noticed. Although it still doesn't mean that he would immediately be able to guess that he's actually his enemy, but it's still much better to be cautious about such a variable.
"Wait," Leo suddenly thought of something as he tried to send his Magic power below the ground to try if it's possible to search over there.
The reason that he thought about doing this was because he suddenly remembered back then when they were traveling on a boat towards the territory of the Blue Fin Kingdom. At that time, teacher Homer was able to effectively notice any Magical Beast in the boat.
"Just like what I've expected..."
Indeed, just like what Leo has expected, unlike the effective range when a Mage was on the ocean which was a perfect sphere shape, the effective range when inland was only a half-sphere shape, meaning Boss Nuwyuse wouldn't be able to effectively notice anything below the ground.
What does this imply? Well...
Whooosh!
Whooosh!
Whooosh!
Whooosh!
Whooosh!
Quickly, Leo summoned 5 Earth Elementals and made them turned into a toy soldier form. Right after, he sent out an order to make them dig down and slowly make their way under Boss Nuwyuse's feet.
"Assassinating someone just became even more convenient now that I can summon Elementals," Leo thought inwardly.
As soon as they received Leo's order, the 5 Earth Elementals quickly made 5 tiny holes on the ground as they swiftly began making a small tunnel enough for them to travel inside straight towards the direction of Boss Nuwyuse.
With how fast the Earth Elementals' speed in digging was, also adding the fact that there were 5 of them, it only took less than 5 minutes to arrive unnoticed below Boss Nuwyuse's feet.
When that was done, Leo then quickly sent out 2 Nature Elementals to go through the tunnel.
As soon as the 2 Nature Elementals arrived, Leo then quickly made the Earth Elementals dig another tunnel to Boss Nuwyuse's left and right, where each of the 2 Nature Elementals positioned themselves as they slowly planted some plants to prepare for his planned assassination.
On the other hand, the 5 Earth Elementals then slowly positioned themselves on a location following the star shape as they soon after dug out tiny holes.
Whooosh.....
From the small plant came tiny vines that slowly traveled inside the tunnels as they prepared themselves under the tiny holes.
"Let's check first just how focus exactly is Boss Nuwyuse right now," Leo thought to himself as he sent out an order to one of the Wind Elementals to drop a pen from Boss Nuwyuse's study table.
Tong...
The moment the pen dropped to the ground, the Wind Elemental immediately made its head turned to look at Boss Nuwyuse, only to see that he was still focusing on investigating the suspected Golden Thunderstorm Python's eggs.
For Boss Nuwyuse to still not notice some movement despite being inside his effective range and not to mention just a few meters behind him, it only meant that he was fully focused on the suspected Golden Thunderstorm Python's egg right now.
Leo mischievously smiled on his face before he made the Nature Elementals control the vines to slowly come out of the tiny holes.
Just like what Leo had expected, Boss Nuwyuse was still oblivious about the vines despite them already in the most closest area of his effective range.
"It seems like Boss Nuwyuse is extremely serious with what he's currently doing right now, to the point that he doesn't even notice that vines are already slowly moving around inches away from his body." Leo can't help himself from commenting.
Actually, aside from that he's completely focused on investigating the suspected Golden Thunderstorm Python's eggs, the other reason why Boss Nuwyuse wasn't still able to notice the vines was also because its body was very tiny, even more, tiny compared to the body of a toothpick. So, even when it has already started spreading and spreading inches away from his body, he still remained oblivious about it.
"Now let's try the combination of Nature Elementals and Earth Elementals in terms of combat," Leo thought to himself before ordering the 5 Earth Elementals to touch the tiny vines and begin combining their Earth Mana within it.
As the tiny vines spread out inches away from Boss Nuwyuse's body, tinny tiny pebbles were slowly appearing around its body. No, rather than calling them pebbles, it was more appropriate to call them tiny pieces of dirt.
Meanwhile, while Boss Nuwyuse was moving his head around the suspected Golden Thunderstorm Python's eggs, behind him were tens or so of tiny vines reaching similar to his height.
"Now begin," Leo smiled mischievously as he sent out the second to the last order.
Whooosh...
Whooosh...
Whooosh...
The tiny vine's body immediately began falling to Boss Nuwyuse's back, immediately making him stop on his work as he noticed from his peripheral vision some tiny vines on his shoulder.
"Now!" Leo exclaimed in his mind.
Whooosh!
Whooosh!
Whooosh!
The tiny pieces of dirt around the vine's body suddenly turned into spikes, immediately stabbing all over Boss Nuwyuse's body.
"What's this- "Even before Boss Nuwyuse could finish his words, his body was already covered with earth spikes that went from the inside of his body straight to the outside. He wasn't even able to make any sound before he suddenly died.
As soon as a report from the Wind Elemental was sent to him telling him that Boss Nuwyuse has died, without wasting any time, Leo immediately went inside the tent.
Arriving inside the tent, Leo soon after saw the gruesome sight of Boss Nuwyuse's body.
At this moment, Boss Nuwyuse was just standing still beside the table with the suspected Golden Thunderstorm Python's egg on top. His head was slightly turned towards his right shoulder while his eyes were starring widely, obviously expressing his shock before suddenly dying. And his body right now has turned into something akin to a porcupine, with tens or so of earth spikes seemingly acting as the thorns coming out from his body, as the blood slowly oozes out and dropping to the ground, tainting the dirt with the color of blood.
Any person that looked at the sight of Boss Nuwyuse's body right now would definitely want to vomit. No, they would certainly start vomiting, especially those with weaker minds.
It was many folds more gruesome compared to a body that was turned into something akin to a meat paste. At least the situation with a meat paste body was somewhat indistinguishable, which means they could console themselves by saying, "This could have been just a Magical Beast!"
As for Boss Nuwyuse's body that was turned into a porcupine, it was a clear sight to see that this was a person. No, to be more precise, this was a Human.
"I think that what I just did was a bit cruel..."
Even Leo who has killed tens or so of thousands of people can't help feeling the cruelty of his action.
To be honest, to describe it as gruesome was an underestimation. It was more appropriate to call his action as inhumane...
Despite saying those words though, Leo only sympathized for a few seconds as he turned serious once again.
Truth be told, everything was fair in a fight, especially against their enemies or people that threaten their very own interest. Whatever methods they choose to use weren't any different as the only thing that matters in the end was either it was successful or not and whether did they win or lose.
Soon, Leo arrived before Boss Nuwyuse's study table and opened the drawer. Without any hesitation, he grabbed the small box and opened it, finally confirming that the items inside were indeed the 150 pieces of Storage Rings.
Not caring about anything else, Leo opened the first 30 pieces of Storage Rings to check if there were exactly 3,000 pieces of Yellow Skinned Anaconda's eggs. No, right now there were only 2,999 pieces of Yellow Skinned Anaconda's eggs since one of them was on the table.
After confirming that, he then quickly put all the Storage Rings inside his Storage Ring. Of course, he didn't forget to separate the 30 pieces of Storage Rings with Yellow Skinned Anaconda's eggs inside from the empty 120 pieces of Storage Rings.
When he was finally done with that, he then turned around to look at the suspected Golden Thunderstorm Python's egg on top of the table.
Since Boss Nuwyuse wasn't able to confirm whether it was really a Golden Thunderstorm Python's egg before dying, then the only way for him to find out about that was for him to look for a Magical Beast Tamer after establishing his Guild and asked them about it himself.
"Now that I have all the Storage Rings, it's time to begin harvesting the Yellow Skinned Anaconda's eggs I can have inside the Yellow Skinned Anaconda's nest," Leo said to himself as he put the suspected Golden Thunderstorm Python's egg inside his Storage Ring before turning around towards the exit of the tent.
