"Wild human, it's time for you to die."

As soon as Miles received the order from Minister Ren, he chuckled a little before slashing a fire claw at Leo.

'Swoosh'

Leo had a bad premonition in his heart from the moment he met Miles. So, he was always alert and kept his eye on the surroundings.

Therefore, when Miles attacked him, Leo casually dodged aside while taking the Lion Cub as his hostage.

'Even though I didn't like taking the lion cub hostage, I don't have any other choice but to survive this situation.'

Leo silently thought and looked at the huge flaming lion that ordered Miles to kill him.

"Uncle Ren, what are you doing? You are repaying kindness with evil."

Compared to Leo, the lion cub was more shocked as he asked his uncle Ren with a fit of slight anger and worry.

As for becoming Leo's hostage, the lion cub didn't think much because he didn't find any fault in Leo's actions.

Instead, he was disappointed at his Uncle Ren, who wanted to kill Leo for bringing him back home.

"Repaying evil with kindness? You learned your lessons so well that you even started using those quotes in real life."

Uncle Ren scoffed at the lion cub and started, "Who said he is a Benefactor? He is the disruptor of my plans. The punishment for disrupting my plans is death."

By saying that, Ren stood up and slowly walked toward Leo.

"Do you think I will let you kill me so easily? If you want to kill me, you must catch me first."

Even though Leo was standing in front of a level 5 or level 6 supreme-ranked flaming lion, he was not worried much.

It was because Leo's level 9 talents had already come out of the cool down.

'Even if I can't enter the secret dimensional space, I can teleport 10 kilometers away from here with a single thought.'

Despite feeling the bad premonition in his heart, Leo followed Miles without any worry because of his [Space Manipulation].

"By the way, I forgot to tell you that I have already activated a supreme-grade formation for my den. So, don't even think of escaping from here with your talent."

However, Leo's expression became grim the next second when he heard Ren's words.

'Ding,

Even though there is a barrier, it is not powerful enough to stop the host from using the ultimate effect of the [Space Manipulation] to escape from the den without any problem.

'And I actually believed that b*stard when he said it was a supreme-ranked barrier.'

With the sudden system notification, Leo's grim expression disappeared as he looked at Ren.

'But, how did he know I have the [Space Manipulation] talent? Did he receive the information from the Spider Queen?'

'Wait a second…it is him. He intentionally helped the lion cub to leave the territory and asked the water spiders to kidnap him.'

From the time he learned about the Flaming Lion King's power, Leo felt there was a mastermind who planned the kidnap.

Finally, he learned who was the mastermind behind the entire conspiracy behind the kidnap.

'But why? Also, even if I didn't spoil his plans, it only worked in the favour of the three bestial races. What was his true motive?'

Even though he could tell Minister Ren was the mastermind behind the Lion cub's kidnap, he didn't understand the motive.

Because, from what he had seen and learned, the plan was only useful for the three bestial races as they could live for another 100 years without worrying about the Flaming Lions' invasion.

As for what Minister Ren would gain from all these, Leo was unable to figure it out as there was not enough information for him to deduce the true motive.

"Uncle"

On the other hand, Lionel angrily shouted at his Uncle Ren and said, "Let's wait until my father returns. Until then, I can't let you kill him."

The flaming lions were arrogant and prideful.

Since Lionel had promised Leo to reward generously after safely reaching home, his pride would be hurt if he didn't keep his promise.

Moreover, instead of rewarding Leo, his uncle was planning to kill him, which was a shameless act in Lionel's perspective.

"I am sick of you calling me 'Uncle'. I will use this opportunity to kill you with that wild human."

Ren's eyes which were kind and generous all the time, looked very angry now.

Looking at those eyes, Lionel could not help but get scared.

"W-what are you saying, Uncle Ren? You are scaring me."

Even though Lionel was scared, he mustered his courage and asked Minister Ren.

"What am I saying? I said I would kill you and put the blame on that wild human before killing him…Keke."

Ren was not worried that Leo would escape because he had already activated the barrier as he chuckled.

"But why? What did I do? Aren't we a family?"

Lionel was sad as his usually kind uncle wanted him dead and didn't know why.

"You ask me why? Your birth is sin. If you are not been born, my son Begal would have been the Heir of this flaming lion race."

When he heard Lionel ask why Ren wanted him dead, Ren became furious and roared at him as he explained.

"In my generation, your father stole my fame, and now you are stealing my son's fame. Do you want me to sit on the sidelines and watch my son become a servant to you just like how I became a servant to your father?"

As he walked closer to Leo and Lionel, flames shot out of Ren's body, "As long as I kill you, my son will become the next generation's leader. Now die."

Ren shot a flamethrower at them as soon as he finished his words.
