"However, I won't take it for free. I will give you something in return."
Whether it was a beast or a human, Leo doesn't want to owe something to others. If he owes others, he would try his best in repaying it as soon as possible.
Hence, even though the black snake gave the Vitality Stone to Leo for free, he wanted to have a fair exchange with it.
'Hiss~'
The black snake shook its head as though he was reply that there was no need for it.
"I noticed that you have three eggs in the pool. Why don't I help you hatch into high-level snakelings?"
After saying that, Leo dived into the crystal clear pool and reached the bottom in no time.
'Hiss~'
For a second, the black snake became anxious when it saw Leo holding its eggs; however, other than hissing at Leo, it could not do anything because it was worried that Leo might break them by mistake.
"Don't worry. I will help you hatch your babies into high-level beasts."
Leo had already seen the brief information about the snake and he knew the details about it.
…
Beast Name: Black Water Snake (Mid-Level).
Strength: Level 6 Gold Grade.
…
Since it is a mid-level snake, the snakelings that come out of its eggs would mostly like to be mid-level unless in some rare conditions.
Moreover, it would take a lot of time for the snakeling to come out of the eggs on their own.
Hence, Leo said that he would not help the Black Water Snake in instantly hatching its eggs but he would make sure those snakelings would be high-level beastlings.
'Hiss~'
However, the Black Water Snake still worried that Leo might destroy its eggs with his experiments.
'I should do it quickly and prove that I know what I am doing.'
Seeing that the still worried Black Water Snake, Leo decided to quickly start the process of hatching the eggs with his God Energy.
'Swoosh'
Without wasting any time, Leo quickly started injecting the God Energy into two eggs.
'Kacha'
After injecting one unit of God Energy each into the two eggs, Leo stopped injecting and soon, a crack appeared on the eggs.
'Kacha'
'Kacha'
The cracks grew bigger as pitch-black-coloured long but thin snakelings came out of the two eggs.
'Hiss'
The moment they came out of the eggs, they looked at Leo and hissed at him in a low voice before jumping into the water.
'Swoosh'
Soon, they swam towards the black water snake and swam around it excitedly.
'Hiss~'
On the other hand, the black water snake hissed in excitement to see its babies and started playing with them without even bothering about their levels.
For a mother, seeing its baby's health was more important than seeing its level.
'Let's check their information.'
However, Leo was not like that.
Since Leo promised that he would hatch them into a high-level snakeling, Leo wanted to check it to make sure it had fulfilled his promise.
By chance, if he failed in doing so, Leo planned to inject more units of God Energy into the last egg and make sure it came out as a high-level beastling.
[Quasi Divine Knowledge]
….
Beast Name: Abyssal Leviathan (Snakeling) (Earth-level)
Strength: Level 1 Gold Grade.
Skill: Water Control, Water tsunami, Water Healing.
Abyssal Leviathan: A legendary Water-type snake that resides in the darkest depths of the ocean. It is colossal in size, with a long and coiled body. Abyssal Leviathans have the power to summon powerful storms, control massive waves, and even create tsunamis with a single flick of their tail.
….
Soon, Leo received the information about the two snakelings with a slight pain in his head.
'What? Earth-level? Gold Grade? A legendary snake?'
Each word about the snakelings, their strength, skills, made Leo thoroughly shocked because it was his first time seeing such powerful beastlings just after they came out of the eggs.
"How is it possible? How can such powerful snakelings come out of the eggs belonging to a mid-level beast?"
Leo looked at the Black Water Snake with a question mark on his face.
The moment the snakelings were born, they were already gold grade and with some resources and time, they would surpass their mother and become her protectors.
'Wait a second.'
However, in the next second, Leo thought of something as he muttered, 'Does their father is a high-level snake?'
That's the only possible that Leo could think of because as far as he knows on hatching the eggs, it won't be possible to hatching the beastlings two levels higher than then their parent's levels.
What's more, he only injected one unit of God Energy and not even 10 units of God Energy.
If it was 10 units of God Energy, even though it was still hard to believe, Leo would have accepted that as a rare case.
Hence, Leo thought that the only possibility behind the level of the snakelings was their father.
'Screech'
Just as Leo thought of the possibility of why the snakelings that came out of the eggs were so powerful with such a high-level, Leo heard a screeching sound from the sky.
'Thud'
In the next second, a pitch-black-coloured huge eagle landed beside the pool and looked at Leo wiith its black-coloured eyes.
'Th..this is…'
Looking at the huge eagle, Leo unconsciously stepped backward because the aura emitted by the huge eagle was so powerful that he felt his body would melt if he didn't step back from the eagle.
'Hiss~'
Seeing that the huge eagle was releasing its aura at Leo, the black-coloured snake hurriedly hissed at the eagle.
'Swoosh'
In the next second, the huge black eagle stopped releasing its aura at Leo and asked him, "Why are you holding my baby?"
The huge eagle looked at Leo with a piercing gaze while asking about the egg in his hands.
"Your baby? But this egg belongs to…."
Suddenly, Leo stopped speaking as he realized something and asked the huge eagle, "Are you the Father of this egg?"
"Yes…I am the father."
'Swoosh'
As soon as it replied to Leo, it flew into the air and transformed into a pitch-black-coloured snake and landed on the ground.
