........

He immediately looked into the matter and knew that a ' Tremor Scorpion' was on their trail. This is a ferocious beast with strength rivaling that of a peak Rank 1 magus.

Right now, Leylin is still weakened from the aftermath so he immediately set off, deciding to play it safe. He killed the captives to get rid of the trouble of carrying them and gave Lancy an ultimatum.

...

From the pitch black darkness of the night to a fully risen sun, almost half a day had passed while on the run.

"If I could get my hands on one or two Vengeful spirits, it would have been amazing. I could start on creating the Tears of Mary. "

Leylin's eyes betrayed a glimpse of regret, but was still not bothered much. He got to reap their 'sentient force' so, he didn't really lose anything.

Magi are very unpredictable, Leylin doesn't wants to be in a precarious position, especially now since he is in a weak state. With the depravity in their ability even Leylin thinks he is quite paranoid to think like this, but better be safe than sorry.

"Shall we rest? If we do not meditate and recuperate our spiritual force" Lancey's voice was heard from the back of the party. She travelled together with Anna on the Seated Lupin Wolf.

All Magi make use of the both their spiritual force and magic power to perform miraculous magic. Due to the Golden Giant incident, her injuries and the constant travelling she was exhausted, even though Leylin gave her some medical potions, there is only so much a potion can do.

Leylin looked at everyone, looks of exhaustion were spread across their faces.

"No need for that, we are yet to be out of the danger zone, the Tremor Scorpion might catch up to us anytime soon"

After hearing Leylin reply, the party sank into a solemn silence and carried on with their hasty escape.

*Whoosh Whoosh!*

A gale carried up the sand, bringing about a glittering gold color. This chapter is updated by nov(e)(l)biin.com

Lancey finished her explanation and placed the gem in her hands. She dripped a few drops of water from her water pouch onto it and chanted a few incantations.

A beam of light blue light was emitted from the gem. The light warped and stretched until it looked like a mirror's surface.

On the mirror like surface, a beautiful lake could be seen. Green shrubbery and coconut trees grew around it. Occasionally, large red birds could be seen ascending and descending from the forest.

The vision on the mirror surface continued to pan in. Leylin could see the true appearance of the Kary Vultures.

The Kary Vulture's wingspan spanned 5 metres and was covered in scarlet feathers. Its talons looked cold and sharp. The pink bald patches on its head were a disgusting sight. A tumor-like muscle bulged on its curved and completely bald head.

There were more than a hundred of these Kary Vultures in the oasis. If they were all fully grown and under the leadership of an official Magus-like Kary Vulture King, the band of Magi stood no chance.

"More than a hundred huh. Fair enough we will trim their number as we rest."

"Shall I try to look for the Kary Vultures King?" Lancey was uncertain but continued to pan the mirror in the direction of the flock of Kary Vultures.

Over yonder, there stood a gigantic tree with a peculiar hollow that looked like a den. Hidden in it was an incomparably massive Kary Vulture.

While Lancey was going to zoom in the mirror to get a closer look, Leylin stopped her.

"No need, it's weak little beast hardly worth the effort" Although Leylin said that he knows that this action of her will be a unfruitful endeavor and the Vulture King will be spooked.

"hmm" Lancey nodded with a look of reverence on her face. How many people can actually totally discard the presence of Vulture King like he can.

...

Below the ground, in a temporary hut crafted using magic, all of them rested. This continuous journey has left all of them tired.

"A hundred Kary Vultures with power levels similar to level 2 or level 3 acolytes, plus a Vulture King"

Leylin licked his lips while thinking and closed his eyes, sitting on a meditated pose to rest.....
