“Stop being arrogant. Do you really think we can win against the Flaming Lions just by teaming up with the other two races?”
However, the 21 water spiders were rebuked by their Mother, the ruler of ‘The Abandoned Sea’.
Even though it was said that the four races rule the Beastnet, it was a lie because the Flaming Lions suppress the three other races. These Flaming Lions were known for their fire damage.
Most importantly, their leader, the Flaming Lion King, had the highest rank among the four bestial rulers, making the other three rulers constantly wary of him.
“According to the information we have on the Flaming Lion race, they have more than 50 elders who had the equivalent strength of our race’s captains and generals. So, we need to work together with the other two races in erasing the Flaming Lion race.”
The ‘Mother of the Water Spiders’ asked everyone, “I don’t want you to fight with the other two races because our goal this time is the Flaming Lion. Do you understand?”
“Yes, Mother.”
“Also, someone needs to stay back in this region, in case the wild monsters enter our territory.”
‘Rumble’
Amidst her words, the meeting den shook a little as a colossal spider leg came from the outside, “You. Stay back, and you know what to do if the wild monsters enter our territory, right?”
Pointing at the Purple striped water spider, the spider queen gave him the task.-.
“Yes, Mother. I will turn them into delicious food for the mother to consume.”
The Purple striped water spider was excited to be chosen by the spider queen to look after the territory as it hurriedly nodded.
“I know you prepare the best meals for your mother. That’s why I have chosen you.”
The spider queen’s voice resounded in the den as she retracted her leg.
“As for the remaining children, are you ready to go?”
“Yes, mother.”
“Good. let’s go.”
As soon as the ‘Mothe of the Water Spiders’ finished her words, the 20 supreme-ranked spiders disappeared from their place.
“Child, Protect the territory and Lion’s Heir. In case we fail in taking down the Flaming Lions, that Heir is the ticket for us to get out alive from there.”
Her voice resounded in the meeting den before the entire sea was filled with huge waves, and a huge blackish red-coloured water spider with wings flew out of the sea.
‘Is that the Queen?’
There was a golden crown on that huge water spider’s head. Looking at it, Leo unconsciously muttered those words.
‘Swoosh’
Leo was still shocked at how huge that water spider was; he saw it fly off into the distance at an incredible speed.
‘Ding,
Beast Name: Winged Water Spider Queen (Mother of the Water Spiders).
Error…Error…Error.
Before the spider queen could fly away, Leo was able to appraise it; however, nothing was visible other than the name of the beast.
‘If the lion cub’s father is the strongest one then this spider queen’s strength should be level 7 or level 6 supreme rank, right?’
Even though he was shocked at the spider queen’s appearance, Leo knew it was not the strongest beast in the world.
‘I wonder how majestic the Flaming Lion King would be. If such a powerful beast could owe me a favour for saving his son, then my revenge on the city leader and the master enslaver will be a piece of cake for me.’
Leo clenched his fists as he finally got to see how powerful a grade 1 world could be.
…
‘Huh? What was that feeling earlier?’
On the other hand, the spider queen sensed something when it left its home.
‘Is it because we are finally going against the flaming lions that I am having a bad premonition? I should be confident; otherwise, those two b*stards will make me the scapegoat in front of the falming lions.’
However, she didn’t think much and tried to look confident in front of the other two rulers before attacking the Flaming Lion King.
….
‘Anyway, I think the spider queen leaving this region is a good thing for me.’
Leo stopped thinking about the power level of the rulers of this world and started thinking of going all out and devouring more water spiders.
‘But, there might be other supreme-ranked water spiders. I think it is better for me to save the lion cub and leave this region.’
It was common sense that there must be some supreme-ranked water spiders to guard the territory in the absence of the spider queen. Therefore, Leo didn’t want to raise the commotion and save the lion cub first before leaving the ‘Abandoned sea’.
[Fire Claw]
‘Slash’
Once he decided what to do, Leo didn’t waste any time as he assassinated five rank 9 water spiders before throwing them into the secret dimension space.
‘Looks like it must have been scared when I left it in the water.’
Soon, he freed the lion cub from the cage; however, it was asleep while occasionally shivering, making him think about the time when he had to hide in the secret dimensional space while leaving the lion cub in the water.
The flaming lions hate water because they cannot release their true firepower. A flaming lion cub fears the water because they cannot collect any fire energy in the environment to release the flames.
[Fireball]
Leo felt a little guilty for leaving it in the water. Nevertheless, he created a small fireball using his [Mighty Combustion] to keep it warm.
He didn’t rush out of the cave; instead, he waited until the lion cub no longer shivered.
‘Since it is recovering, it is time to leave this region.’
Leo had killed around 80 water spiders and wanted to kill a few more on his way out of this region.
With that thought in his mind, Leo walked out of the den, and he was ready to teleport to the faraway black rock in the distance.
‘Ding,
A new system mission has been generated. Please check it.
However, a system notification rang in his head, which stopped him in his tracks.
‘Another mission?’
Leo was surprised for a moment and checked it.
‘Haha…it is time for a massacre.’
After reading the contents of the mission, Leo changed his plans from silently leaving the territory to massacring the water spiders.
