Chapter 569: 569: The Forest

Lyon smirked as he looked at the rustling bushes. His hands stayed crossed and his feet were firm on the ground. His breathing was more peaceful than the luscious forest whilst his eyes were as serene as the air surrounding him.

His eyebrows rose. "A pair of antlers?"

A pair of antlers peek out from the bushes before a magnificent beast appeared before his very eyes. Its eyes were pitch black and its four legs were lean and long. The towering beast paid no heed to the human in front of it.

Lyon looked at the majestic reindeer with his arms still crossed. "It seems like you are lost?"

The reindeer didn't answer as it looked around. Its cute ears were ever twitching. It walked away.

"Hmm... that's weird," muttered Lyon. as he watched the magnificent beast walk away.

"Hmph," He shrugged before turning around. 

Lyon's eyes suddenly opened wide as he felt a cold shiver. His eyes felt so enormously heavy as he turned around.

The reindeer's ears twitched before it raised its hind legs to accelerate.

*Roar

(Two?!) thought Lyon as he saw two huge boar-like beings suddenly break out from the bushes on the side of the road. The pincher attack immediately shredded the reindeer before it spun in mid-air with its blood splattering all over.

The two beasts immediately governed the dead reindeer before gnawed it down. The flesh-tearing was vivid to one's ears but the gory scene didn't even make the young man flinch.

"I see, so this is what they call Hellboar, I thought they mistake the tusk for a horn but I guess I was wrong."

The Hellboar beast that roamed heaven's wilderness. The beast was black in color and its hide was thicker than a boulder. An ordinary sword won't be able to graze it. A pair of eyes like the wild boar on earth but it didn't have a tusk, instead, it was a white horn on top of its forehead. The horn was the size of a dragon's teeth and as sharp as one. Its massive calves could make a sudden burst of acceleration that made reindeers speed a joke. The one-horned Hellboars in front of him were as tall as his waist.

"They are intelligent though," said Lyon as he observed how they pincher the reindeer. "Not to mention even with the sensitivity of the magnificent beast, it couldn't detect the two boars. Heh, that's amazing."

*Growl!

"Oh, looks like they noticed me."

The pair of beasts didn't finish their meal before turning against the young man. The glaring eyes were like a hunter seeing the pray of the day. The pair showed their bloody teeth with their furthest right leg kicking the dirty away repeatedly.

"I see," said Lyon. "Then come at me, I'm right," His eyes glowed a golden glow. "Here."

The wild boar accepted the taunt before they launched at concerning speed. The wind broke as one could vividly see the aerial line of its resistance. 

The massive body of the pair of Hellboars rammed against Lyon's pair of hands who caught them by the horns. He was pushed back several meters with his heels dragging the soil up before it stopped.

"Heh," Lyon smirked toward the Hellboars.

The pair didn't prepare for the former to have survived their combined attacks. They immediately dug their hoofs to the ground to pull themselves out of his grasp. 

"You think that will work?" Lyon was grabbing them by their horns. 

The might of the Devil Ape easily surpassed their natural-born strength.

The hellboars immediately squealed as they knew their entire strength was not enough for them to get out of the dire situation. 

"Calling for help, huh. It's—" his eyes opened wide before he smirked. "You guys are everywhere."

Lyon let go of the pair before he quickly turned around then kicked the snout of the incoming hellboar. 

The incoming hellboar didn't fly away but instead took a few steps back.

"Two horns... you're massive," said Lyon as he looked at the third hellboar had two horns and the size was like that of a full-grown human adult.

The massive hellboar huffed at him with its bloody snout. 

"If two is as massive as you, what is the size of the six-horned hellboars then," said Lyon before he slapped the first pair of the hellboars with his golden tails. The celestial tails immediately broke their skull effortlessly. The pair didn't even squeal.

Seeing its brethren got killed so easily the hellboar growled before ramming its head against him. 

Lyon snorted before he leaped over the beast with his arms crossed in mid-air. 

The massive two-horned boar nimbly turned around in two steps before bursting its acceleration once more. The back of the youth was in sight, wide opened for it to rammed its two horns and shred it to pieces.

Lyon smirked as one of his ethereal golden tails swooped to the ground before slapping the hellboar's chin at the right moment and sending it flying over him. 

The massive body was slammed to the ground before Lyon quickly moved forward and end the hellboar's life by crushing its skull with a single fist. 

"It is the most humane possible," muttered Lyon before he reverted back to his normal form.

His eyebrows slightly furrowed as he looked at the pair of horns sliding out of the hellboar carcasses.

"Oh, that's REALLY convenient," said Lyon. "It's like you are made to die... sorry."

Lyon took the pair of horns before he squinted his eyes as he tried to figure out how to put the horn inside the small pouch. He pondered for a while before slamming the point of the horn at the mouth of the pouch. The pouch suddenly enlarged and swallow the entire thing whole.

His eyes blinked in disbelief. "I guess, that's how?"

"Now then," Lyon yawned as he stood up before looking at the other two carcasses, only to see two people collecting them instead.
