[Even without him, these natives were fighting so well. If it was a regular world assessment, then they would have achieved a clearance rating of at least an 'A' grade]
Looking at the natives in the human world, the Ancient God silently muttered while heaving a sigh of relief.
Compared to the regular grade 1 worlds, this human world without any grade was faring much better than the Ancient God excepted.
However, with his underhanded tricks and the loopholes in the rules, the Ancient God was confident that the natives of the human world won't last much longer under the combined difficulty of stages 1 and 2 of the World Assessment.
For stage 1, the natives have to survive for a specific time; for stage 2, they have to kill one million supreme-ranked monsters.
If they were level 1 or 2 supreme-ranked monsters, it would have been a piece of cake for the natives because there were hundreds of supreme-ranked heroes under Leo.
However, the Ancient God had sent level 5 and higher-ranked supreme-ranked monsters for stage 2.
What's more, most of these monsters were monster kings with powerful skills.
Just when Leo thought the world assessment was not going as he had planned, Leo saw a familiar silhouette fly out of the Golden Hawk city.
It was a young lady in a white dress with huge white wings and covered in a bright halo around her.
In short, she looked like an angel descended from the heavens to save the natives from the world from the invading monsters.
Every time she flapped her wings, shining white particles would be released that would fall on the warriors that were fighting on the ground.
'Swoosh'
'Swiish'
The moment that shining particles touched the natives, all the injuries on their bodies would be miraculously healed at an incredible pace.
"My injuries…they are healing."
"Not only my injuries…I no longer feel tired anymore."
"Same here."
"It's the Holy Angel from the Order of the Healing Angels."
"Not only is she a Holy Angel, but she is also Boss's fiancee."
"Even though the boss is currently not here, with the help of the Holy Angel, we can complete the world assessment with ease."
"I am going to show the boss that his nurturing of me is totally worth it by killing at least ten thousand supreme-ranked monsters."
.

One after another Leo's followers who were defending the Golden Hawk City shouted out loud and started fighting the monsters in front of them with great excitement.
Thanks to Ashely, the Holy Angel, not only everyone's injuries were healed but even their tiredness also disappeared.
In a world, all the exhausted fighters have returned to their peak state after absorbing the white light particles released by Ashley.
'Swoosh'
'Die…you monster.'
'Leave this world alone and go somewhere else…..aargh.'
Soon, the tides of the battle changed as Leo's followers gained the upper hand against the monsters.
Not only the Golden Hawk City, but all the cities in the human world also have members of the 'Order of the Healing Angels'.
Even though their healing abilities were not as effective as Ashley, they were enough to greatly boost the morale of the warriors fighting the monsters.
'Ashley, I am counting on you.'
Seeing the sudden turn of events, a slight smile appeared on Leo's face.
From beginning to end, Ashley didn't say a single word; however, as the saying goes 'Actions speak louder than words', and her abilities completely changed the tide of the battle.
He muttered, 'As long as this b*stard didn't send a Legend Grade monster in the final stage, the human world will complete the world assessment even without my help.'
Even though Leo would be missing the rewards for not participating in the world assessment, he didn't mind it.
For Leo, the rewards from the grade 1 world assessment didn't appease him anymore.
Of course, that doesn't mean he won't be invading the grade 1 worlds anymore, it's just that…he was happy that his family, friends and followers were capable enough to protect themselves by relying on one another.
'Even without me, they could survive in the future assessments as long as they were given enough time.'
Previously, Leo thought that staying in the world and protecting it would be enough.
However, only after learning and experiencing things in the various worlds, Leo came to a realization that he had to become more powerful and change things like prior notice to the natives regarding the Pre-World Assessment, righteous Ancient Gods to host the World Assessment and a few other things.
Most importantly, Leo knew it won't be safe for him to stay in the human world because it won't be long before all the gods start hunting him.
Previously, when Leo was in the Grade 2 Void Dragon World, the remnant spirit of the Dragon God informed the main body about Leo's identity of being the apostle of a god that was hated by all the gods.
At the same time, the system also informed him that he would soon be hunted by the Gods as the Dragon God would most likely spread the information about his identity.
'But still…there is a problem.'
Leo looked into the endless space as he thought of a problem.
Even if Leo leaves the human world, it won't be a difficult thing for the gods to figure out about his native world.
Leo was confident in his skills that he would survive even if he was hunted down by the gods; however, Leo knew that once the Gods realize his survival skills, they would use underhanded tricks to get him which would be using his family, friends and followers.
Therefore, Leo wanted to erase the last connecting dot that connects him with the human world while looking into the endless space.
'Only if I can get him close to me, I can erase the last connecting dot.'
Leo muttered to himself as he rapidly used his brain to get a suitable plan to take care of the Ancient God that wants to fail the human world.
'Wait a second….I got it…I can use it.'
It didn't take long for Leo to come up with a plan and the reason why he was able to come up with that plan was all thanks to his ability to hear the thoughts of the Gods.
