Chapter 119: What Happened Here
Leo felt all the girls entering the Domain as an explosion breached the portal before he could close it. Once they were safe, he turned to the Silent Watchers, who circled him while holding their weapons up.
Just after that, he lost his temper and started attacking the soldiers. Booms launched the warriors into the air. After that, he quickly took to the sky while heading north to get away from the Duskwood empire.
He had barely covered a few miles when explosions erupted around him, shaking the ground and filling the air with smoke and debris. Leo glanced over his shoulder, his heart racing as he spotted three shadowy figures in pursuit.
Without waiting, he started casting dozens of Thunderbolts and Fireballs at the enemies. The explosion surprised one of them as it engulfed him. When seeing this, Leo sped up, causing a sonic boom to echo across the landscape.
Thanks to his mana, he lost the attackers as he vanished across the border into the Elven Empire. Leo quickly dived under the treetops so nothing could find him and soon he appeared in a primal-looking jungle.
He came to a stop while scanning his surroundings, only to notice a few monsters rushing into the underbrush. Following that, Leo traveled through the humid air while ignoring the surrounding noises.
Towering trees draped with thick vines and the air was heavy with the scent of damp soil and vegetation. Shafts of sunlight pierced through the canopy, casting patterns of light and shadow on the forest floor as he made his way through the maze of greenery.
The sound of his footsteps beneath him blended with the distant calls of exotic birds and the occasional rustle of unseen creatures. Leo’s senses stayed sharp, his eyes scanning for any threats hidden within the dense undergrowth.
Everything around him seemed alive, a pulsing entity that both welcomed and warned him of its danger. Hours passed, the light above dimming as the sunset. The vibrant greens of the jungle deepened into darker shades.
