When the assassin that came to assassinate Leo saw the dragon soul that blocked his dagger, he was only surprised for a moment before recovering from it.
As the son of the family head of the Stormrider family and grandson of the family head of the Moonshadow family, it would be impossible not to have such protective items on him.
Nevertheless, it only made things interesting for the assassin who always liked challenges.
'Everyone, come out and take care of this dragon soul.'
In the next second, three black-coloured beasts appeared in Leo's room.
Since the dragon soul was able to block his attack, he could tell that it had a gold-grade strength. Therefore, he didn't hesitate to use all his contracted beasts to take care of the dragon soul.
"Uncle Grey, help me."
On the other hand, Leo had already woken up when the dragon soul appeared to block the assassin's dagger and was in shock.
Nevertheless, when he saw the three black-coloured beasts, Leo knew his first danger in this world had finally appeared.
Hence, he mustered all his strength in his throat and shouted out loud so that his Uncle Grey or someone other family members might rush to protect him.
"There is no use in shouting because this entire courtyard is covered by my talent."
The masked assassin was not worried too much about Leo's shouting as he was confident in his talent.
"Dark Hound, defeat the dragon son. Darkling Bat and Twilight Spider, assist it."
Soon, the assassin gave orders to the contracted beasts he summoned before slowly walking towards Leo.
'Baaw'
'Kli…kli'
'Ptr…ptr'
Among the three contracted beasts, only Dark Hound was a Gold Grade beast whereas the remaining two were Silver Grade.
Hence, the assassin was confident that his contracted beasts could take care of the Dragon Soul in no time and he could finish his mission of assassinating Leo.
'Is this how I will die in this world?'
Leo was not worried too much about his death because if he died in this world, he would wake up in his real body.
'However, that doesn't mean I will die just like that.'
If Leo died now, his ascending mission would fail and he would have to pay some penalty for failing the mission.
Hence, Leo remained calm and decided to think of a plan.
'Even if I die today, I should at least die by giving my best…only then, I won't have any regrets.'
Leo clenched his fists as many thoughts flashed in Leo's head while looking at the incoming Assassin.
'First, let's hide inside the Hidden Nest.'
Even though Leo could hide inside the Hidden Nest, it was only a temporary solution. Nevertheless, Leo wanted to have a safe place where he could plan something.
"Brat, die."
As an assassin who had completed many missions, he had already turned cold-hearted.
'Whether the target was a weak woman or a child or a frail old man, kill them without showing any mercy.'
This was one of the main things the assassin had learned from his past experience and directly slashed his dagger at Leo.
'Slash'
'Swoosh'
However, just when the dagger was about to come into contact with Leo's neck, he disappeared without a trace, giving the masked assassin another surprise.
"It looks like your Uncle has given you some good protective items; however, too bad, you encountered me."
The masked assassin quickly recovered from his surprise as he ordered, "Darkling Bat, use [Supersensory] and find where he is hiding."
'Kli…kli'
The black-coloured bat flew towards the masked assassin and rapidly released its wings.
'Kli…kli'
After a few seconds, it moved to the place where Leo disappeared and circled around that place.
"So, you are hiding here. Let's see how long you can hide in there."
The assassin sat on the bed as he watched his three contracted beasts fight the dragon soul.
"It looks like I have to join the fight to finish it soon."
Even though the assassin was not lacking time, he wanted to destroy the dragon soul.
The dragon soul's strength was around level 5 Gold Grade whereas the Assassin's Dark Hound was only a level 3 Gold Grade beast and the Twilight Spider was a level 6 Silver Grade beast.
As for the Darkling Bat, it was the latest beast that he formed a contract with after becoming a Gold Grad Beast Tamer. Hence, its strength was only at level 5 Bronze Grade.
Therefore, the assassin wanted to take care of the dragon soul by the time Leo comes out of his hiding space because he knew there would be a time limit for the effects of the items.
Soon, the assassin and his three contracted beasts worked together to fight the dragon soul and slowly they started gaining an advantage against the Dragon Soul.
'No…if this continues, the Dragon Soul will dissipate without even killing a single beast. I have to do something to help it.'
Leo was observing the fight and knew things were not going well and in no time, the dragon's soul would disappear and at the same time, he would come out of the Hidden Nest.
Hence, he started racking his brain to come up with a plan to do something.
'There is not much I can do in my current state and the only thing I can use now is my talent [Quasi Divine Knowledge].'
After calming himself down, Leo started planning something with his talent.
'Swoosh'
At the same time, Leo saw his Dream Butterfly slowly fly towards the ceiling of the room and sprinkled tiny powder particles on the Darkling Bat.
'Is it trying to put the Darkling Bat to sleep? Will it work?'
Since the assassin seemed very powerful, Leo believed all his contracted beasts were powerful. So, he didn't think that his Dream Butterfly would do anything in the current situation.
'Thud'
However, in the next second, the Darkling Bat fell to the ground with a thud sound, which shocked both Leo and the masked assassin.
"What happened?"
"How is this possible?"
