Chapter 37: Manticore's territory

Manticores were one of the humanoid monsters that appeared in the early stages of the apocalypse and had a steady foothold compared to the other monsters.

As for their appearance, they have the head of a lion and a scorpion tail that contains a deadly poison.

Maybe, it was in their blood, or for whatever reason; they liked to dominate the entire world and learned to make slave seals.

With the help of the slave seals, they became influential among the intelligent monsters.

Intending to dominate the entire human world, they spread their existence to every corner of the world.

"Nasr, let's go to Manticore territory to get your revenge."

With a calm look, Leo mounted Nasr as they flew into the depths of the Uncleared land.

'Brother Leo, please be safe.'

Looking at the back view of Leo, Julia silently muttered to herself before playing with the little gryphlings.

Even though Leo didn't say anything about where he was going to Julia, she could guess that it would be dangerous to bring her with him.

Otherwise, Leo would have taken her along with him.

…..

'Screech'

While flying in the air, Nasr let out a few screeches from time to time as though he was warning Leo about Manticore territory.

"Don't worry. I know about Manticores very well as we have a long history between us."

Leo revealed a cold smile as he said those words.

'Screech'

Hearing those words, Nasr shivered a little as he stopped asking more questions.

….

In an underground chamber, Manticore territory,

"What? You didn't find that Griffin?"

A manticore wearing the golden armour shouted at a group of manticores angrily.

'...'

No one replied anything as they remained silent with their shivering legs.

Each of them had the strength of rank 7 and 8; however, they were still very fearful in front of that Manticore who was shouting at them.

"I will give you two days, if you don't find Griffin before she dies, I am going to kill you to accompany my son."

The leader of the manticore tribe gave them a deadline to find the rank 7 Griffin that escaped after killing his son.

"Yes, Leader."

All the manticores nodded their heads in unison with serious faces.

"Leader…leader."

Just as all the manticores were about to leave the underground chamber, a rank 6 manticore rushed into the underground room with an anxious look.

"What is it?"

Yarzer, the Manticore's territory leader, asked with a frown.

Around every city in this world, there would be an uncleared land with a name, and the name of this uncleared land was Solitary forest.

Yarzer was a manticore dispatched to establish a manticore territory in the 'Solitary forest' region.

"A rank 5 Griffin is flying above our territory. I think this Griffin might be related to the Griffin that killed the Young tribe leader."

The servant didn't waste any time as he directly informed Yarzer about the Griffin.

"Really?"

Yarzer was excited as he clenched his fists, "Let's catch it and find out the whereabouts of that rank 7 Griffin."

Without wasting any time, Yarzer and the elite team of his territory walked out of the underground chamber.

"Huh? A human?"

After coming out of the underground chamber, Yarzer saw Leo and raised his brows.

...

"I thought it would be powerful when you said it was a territory. But, for me, it looks like a small tribe."

Leo looked down from the sky as he shook his head with disappointment.

"Looks like it will not even take five minutes to erase this territory."

Leo had seen the manticore territories in the past. They were huge, and they didn't even bother to live in the underground tunnels.

The manticore territory in front of him was not even worth comparing to those powerful manticore territories which could even make a supreme hero hesitate to enter.

'...'

Hearing his comments about the manticore territory, Nasr was speechless.

The manticore territory in front of him was enough to scare all the rank 7 and rank 8 beasts and monsters away because once the manticores caught them, they would become enslaved forever.

'I wonder if the leader of this territory knows the whereabouts of that b*stard?'

Leo focused his gaze on the Manticore, who was wearing golden armour, and silently thought about it.

'Anyway, it is better to ask rather than not asking.'

After making up his mind, Leo didn't bother wasting his time as he still had to go back to Phirie city to attend the premium auction.

"Nasr, stay here. I will be back in five minutes."

'Swoosh'

After saying that, Leo disappeared from Nasr's back and re-appeared in front of the group of manticores.

"Who are you?"

Yarzer didn't order his men to attack Leo; instead, he asked Leo a question while figuring out his origins.

"Are you from Phirie city?"

Before Leo could say something, Yarzer asked whether he was from Phirie city.

"Yes. So what?"

Leo was not surprised that Yarzer knew about Phirie city because the goal of the manticore territories was to conquer the nearby cities.

The only city near this 'Solitary forest' region was Phirie city.

"I was planning to kidnap someone from the Phirie city but you saved me the trouble of leaving this Solitary forest."

Yarzer revealed a slight smile as he ordered, "Catch him andthe Griffin in the air. Release the slaves that can fly."

"Yes, leader."

Since Manticores couldn't fly, they could only rely on their enslaved mutated beasts that could fly.

"Come out and catch that Griffin alive."

Soon, a manticore shouted out loud as a colossal rank 7 black-coloured eagle flew towards them from a distance.

"Haha…as expected of Manticores, they are too full of themselves."

Leo shook his head as he didn't even bother to glance at the rank 7 eagle coming from the distance.

Instead, he looked at Yarzer and said, "Before I erase your tribe, let me ask you a question."

"It's not a tribe. It is a territory, you b*stard."

Yarzer became furious when he heard Leo call his territory a 'Tribe' as he shouted, "What are you waiting for while he was speaking non-sense? Capture him and cut his tongue. A slave don't need to have a tongue."

"Yes, leader."

The manticores were also furious with Leo's words as they rushed toward him.

"Whether it is a tribe or a territory, since I decided to erase it today, I will erase it."

Leo walked towards the incoming manticores as he muttered, 'Silver, if you finish eating, let's do some exercise.'

As soon as Leo finished his words, a silver light flashed in his hand as his weapon 'Arcane Silver' appeared.
