Chapter 114: Got You Motherfuckers
Leo woke up the following morning as the wind whistled outside the tent. He sat up and shook his head while climbing out of the tent as he noticed the barrier still holding back the storm.
’I can feel the mana draining, yet it seems my body is drawing in more than I’m using,’ he mused, his gaze fixed on the swaying trees that danced in the gentle breeze.
Following that, he scanned the camp only to see the adventurers training while the other guards sat around chatting. Leo noticed the merchants were arguing about something as the green-haired young woman was watching him.
He winked at her before pulling out a Griffin Thigh Feast and sat down while eating as his stomach rumbled. The weather was booming overhead as a rainstorm lashed against his barrier.
While sitting there, a loud screech echoed across the landscape. This made the guards and adventurers jump up in panic, but Leo kept eating his Griffin meat, which was delicious. He stood up as a massive bird passed over.
As he watched the sky, the green-haired young woman appeared beside him. She revealed in a sweet voice, ’’That’s a famous Northern Roc, a friendly Titan, but can become enraged if attacked.’’
Leo glanced to his right and noticed the young woman looked excited, causing him to question with a curious expression, ’’You like monsters?’’
She nodded with a big smile while pulling out a book before speaking. ’’Yes. I’ve been studying them since I was a little girl, but Father thinks it’s useless.’’
’’Interesting,’’ he muttered. ’’Can you show me some creatures we’ll encounter on the way to the fortress?’’
When the young woman heard this, her amber eyes gleamed with excitement as she introduced herself. ’’I’m Mariana Holgate, third daughter of the Holgate Merchant Family.’’
’’I’m Leo Anderson,’’ he replied as the duo sat down.
