Talent Swallowing Hero

Chapter 157 There is no such place called ‘Safe Haven’



‘A new mission? Let’s see what the mission’s objective and reward is.’

With a curious look, Leo clicked and opened the system notification.

‘Ding,

Mission Name: Spider Queen’s Wrath.

Information: Since the host has angered the spider queen and stole its precious egg, it would use its full power to hunt you down. It even got the support from the Terra Bull Tyrant and Zephyr Gaint Eagle, who sent their subordinates to search for you.

Mission Objective: Survive until you leave the Beastnet.

Note: The host will be hunted down by the three bestial races and along with the wild monsters of the Beastnet.

Mission Reward: A new system ability.

‘Huh? So, I will be hunted by the three bestial races?’

Leo was not surprised that the other two bestial races were helping the Spider Queen.

‘It looks like they were anxious because I have the Heir.’-.

Leo silently muttered to himself, looking at the lion cub in his arms.

Earlier, the system informed him through the mission [Spider Killer] that Spider Queen and the two other bestial races were invading the Flaming Lion King’s territory.

Connecting the dots, Leo could tell that the lion cub was their bargaining chip to escape from the Flaming Lion King if things went south.

Even though Leo didn’t know about the oaths made by the four bestial rulers, he knew the three bestial rulers were desperate to catch him, not because of the spider queen’s request; instead, it was for their own survival.

‘Damn that Spider Queen, she completely fooled me with her acting.’

Thinking about the scene where Leo threatened the spider queen that he would kill the lion cub; however, she acted nonchalantly as though she didn’t care about the lion cub’s life.

‘As long as I safely return the lion cub to his home, his father will protect me.’

It was not new for Leo to be hunted by others; however, unlike his world, this world was more powerful, and the beast heroes were also more powerful.

Even though Leo was able to kill more than a dozen supreme-ranked water spiders, it was because of his title [Spider Killer]. So if he encounters a group of supreme-ranked beast heroes from the other races, it could be over for him.

‘Moreover, I can’t use [Space Manipulation] and [Mighty Combustion] for an hour. So, I should be careful.’

Leo always kept an eye around his surroundings as they rushed toward the orange-coloured hue in the sky.

….

‘Screech’

Soon, Leo heard an eagle screech in the sky, making Leo anxious.

‘Little one, rest in the beast storage device.’

In the next second, Leo sent the lion cub into the device and hid in the marsh to avoid the sharp eyesight of the Zephyr eagles by using one of his skills [Spectre].

“How did our king fall for the spider witch?”

“There is a rumour that the spider queen is using [Hypnosis] on our king.”

“That’s just a rumour. Did you forget our king is immune to such talents and skill?”

Just as Leo hid in the marsh, two zephyr eagles landed on a boulder close to Leo’s place and started discussing their king.

“Anyway, do you think we can find the wild human who was able to escape from the spider queen’s territory?”

“Even though it is hard, it is not impossible. Moreover, I heard the three bestial rulers had place a bounty on him and circulated in the wilderness.”

“What? They placed a bounty on him?”

“Yes. The reward is a special favour from the three bestial rulers. If they join the hunt, finding the wild human and the Heir is not a problem.”

The two eagles continued discussing one thing after another as Leo listened patiently to their words.

‘Interesting. So, the entrie Beastnet is hunting me now.’

For some reason, Leo didn’t feel any fear; instead, he was excited. The more beasts hunt me, the more talents and skills I can awaken.

Even though he might lose his life in the process, Leo didn’t mind risking his life to become more powerful.

‘There is no such place called ‘Safe Haven’ in this world. You might lose your life at any moment in this crazy world.’

Lying in the marsh, Leo silently thought to himself.

‘For now, I will let these two rank 9 eagles live. Once I can use my [Space Manipulation], I can start the massacre.’

Even though Leo could kill the two eagles with a simple slash, he continued to hide in the marsh because of the cooldown of his talents.

Nevertheless, Leo learned a few more things from the two zephyr eagles’ conversation.

‘Screech’

“What the hell are you doing here? Stop slacking and start searching for the wild human.”

As the two zephyr eagles were slacking their duties, an angry screech followed by an angry voice came from the sky.

‘Swoosh’

Soon, a huge zephyr eagle landed behind the two rank 9 eagles, making them anxious.

‘It is definitely a supreme-ranked beast hero.’

Not only the rank 9 eagle, but even Leo was also anxious because, in his current state, he won’t be able to escape from a supreme-ranked beast hero.

“Sorry, Captain. We thought we saw a human in the marsh.”

“Yes, Captain. That’s why we landed here and searched for him.”

As though the ones who slacked could come up with great excuses, the two rank 9 eagles randomly pointed at the place in the marsh and informed the supreme-ranked eagle.

‘What the hell? Did they know I was here?’

Coincidentally, where Leo was currently hiding was the place the rank 9 eagles pointed.

‘Looks like I need to have a life and death battle with this surpeme-ranked zephy eagle.’

Since the eagles had found his hiding place, Leo decided to fight without holding back.

Even a cat would fight to the death when it was cornered, whereas Leo was a human, and he could do more than what a cat could do.

Therefore, he decided to fight to the death.

‘Screech’

However, before he could leave his hiding place, more and more supreme-ranked zephyr eagles landed in the marsh, making Leo completely hopeless.
