Talent Swallowing Hero

Chapter 244 New Followers



‘Now, who wants to become my followers?’

Leo didn’t agree directly as he checked who wanted to follow him.

‘Ding,

1) Skye, the rank 9 flaming lion.

2) Arlo, the level 2 supreme-ranked hero and a level 3 supreme-ranked starlight cultivator.

‘Huh? I understand why Skye wants to follow me; however, what’s with this brat? He wants to follow me?’

Since the rank 9 flaming lion was his guide for one of his farming sessions in the wilderness and even witnessed his ability to help others in awakening their talents or skills, Leo was not surprised that Skye wanted to become his follower.

However, he raised his brows to see Arlo’s name on his want-to-be follower’s list.

‘I think it must have something to do with Aurora. Did she see another [Prophecy] related to me?’

Without much thinking, Leo concluded that Aurora must be the reason why Arlo wants to become his follower.

“Since I need a follower from three different lion tribes, I should just accept Skye.”

Even though he spent less time with Skye, that rank 9 flaming lion left quite an impression on Leo..

Moreover, one of the requirements to upgrade his [Heavenly Flaming Lion King Transformation] was to gain at least one lion follower from three different lion tribes. So, he thought to accept him.

However, looking at the second name on the holographic screen, Leo was not sure whether to accept him as his follower or not.

‘His cultivation and hero strength is good. I think I should accept him as he would be quite useful during the world assessment.’

However, the longer he thought about Arlo, Leo felt it was okay to accept him.

“Sir Leo.”

Soon, Leo heard two voices calling him from two directions, making him mutter, ‘Looks like they are here already.’

From one direction, a rank 9 flaming lion and Aurora and Arlo walked towards him in another direction.

“Sir Leo, I want to become your follower. Can you please let me follow you to your world?”

As soon as they walked close to Leo, Skye was the one first to request Leo to become his follower. Soon after, Arlo said the same words.

“Give me a good reason why you want to follow me, and why should I let you follow me?”

Leo didn’t reject them because he found both of them useful; however, at the same time, he didn’t accept them as he wanted to know their true objectives in becoming his follower.

“As long as I follow Sir Leo, I will become a powerful beast hero without a doubt.”

Skye had already prepared well enough to convince Leo.

Therefore, when he heard Leo’s question, Skye didn’t hesitate and said his true objective, making Leo nod.

“Even though I am only a rank 9 beast hero, I can scout the dangerous areas with my special talent [Explorer].”

At the same time, Skye politely replied to Leo about what he was best at and how useful he could be.

“Selected.”

Leo had long decided to accept Skye to meet the requirements for his talent upgradation; however, he didn’t expect Skye to have a good scouting-type talent.

Since there were many [Uncleared Lands] in the human world, Leo felt Skye could become his scout.

“What about you?”

Next, Leo looked at Arlo and asked in a calm tone.

“I always wanted to visit a human world. Since I can’t go to Starlight World, I wanted to visit your human world. So, I am willing to become a follower of the ‘Chosen one’ to enter the human world.”

Arlo looked at his sister for a moment and continued, “Also, I heard that your world would have the World Assessment. So, I don’t think I need to show my strength to you, right?”

‘He is right! I could use someone like him, a supreme-ranked cultivator and a hero for world assessment.’

Leo had already thought about it and nodded, “If you become my follower, you need to follow my orders. You know that, right?”

If a follower can’t follow his orders, then why should he need a follower? So, Leo gave one last chance to Arlo to think about his decision.

“As long as they are not unreasonable, I will follow them without any hesitation.”

However, Arlo didn’t think much as he replied with a deep bow.

“It looks like you have already made up your mind.”

Leo nodded at Arlo before looking at Aurora and asked, “Do you have anything to say to me?”

“The World Assessment for your world is going to be difficult. You need to increase your strength as much as possible.”

Aurora thought for a moment before saying, “Also, don’t forget to increase your cultivation and please take care of my brother.”

“Okay.”

Leo shook his head, sure that Aurora had seen something about him.

‘Even if she didn’t ask me to increase my strength, I will be doing that.’

He had already planned to increase his strength as much as possible and, at the same time, focus on cultivation after unlocking his new system ability.

“Let’s go.”

Soon, a portal to the human world appeared before them.

Leo was not worried that he could not bring Skye and his other followers to his world because the system had already informed him that he could bring his followers without any problem.

As for Lionel, he was the sworn brother of Leo now, and the system naturally allowed him to enter the portal.

Without wasting any time, Leo, Lionel, Sutin, Arlo and Skye entered the portal that leads to the human world.

…..

In some unknown city, the Human world.

“What? How did they become free?”

Jayden woke up from sleep when he sensed the special seals he laid on the starlight tribe’s people in the Beastnet.

“I can’t even feel the connection with the little bear and the tribe leader of the Starlight Tribe.”

He became more and more furious when he thought about losing an entire tribe full of enslaved beings.

“Damn it…the world assessment is coming closer day by day, and I just lost a strong cultivator tribe from my grasp. It looks like someone from the higher grade world must have freed them.”

That was the only possibility Jayden could come to after thinking for a moment because only someone from a higher grade world could free the entire tribe without losing a single cultivator.

‘If someone from a higher grade world entered the Beastnet, it is better for me to give up on the Beastnet and focus on my other two worlds and this world.’

After cursing his luck for some time, Jayden accepted his loss, decided to give up on the Beastnet and focused on fully conquering the other two worlds in which he had already gained a good foothold.

“Also, City leader Theodore must have finished his research on the stabilized portal in the Solitary Forest with the help of the Gorilla. I need to conquer that world and enslave everything in it.”

When he thought about the stabilized portal close to Phirie City, Jayden’s anger decreased a little as he communicated with someone through voice transmission.

‘Gorilla, forget about the Spectre’s killer. It is finally time to enter that portal.’

‘Yes…just focus on your safety and collect as much information as possible on that world before coming back. If we can conquer it, you will be the King of that World.’

After finishing his communication with his enslaved follower, Jayden muttered, ‘It’s time I break through to the Supreme Rank.’
