Chapter 227: Chance
Time flew by, and one more hour passed. Since Aakesh was using the third-person view, he had lost six energy units, but since the energy restoring rate was 100 units per hour, so he could use the skill as long as he wanted without thinking of energy waste.
Since Aakesh still wasn't sure about where the red-haired man would get his chance, he had to silently follow him. Finally, after thirty more minutes, Aakesh got an idea of what the man had in his future.
Three yojanas from where Aakesh was, a colony of Lion lived there. The leader of the colony was a Level 10 Lion, who still needed to evolve. Since it was the area of wolf king, a Level 50 creature, the Lions were the subject of the silver wolves.
After getting the gist of the man's journey, Aakesh stopped following him and rushed in the direction of the colony. It only took him a few minutes to reach the area where the settlement of the Lions lived.
He jumped up on the tree from where he could see the scenes of the colony. After a few seconds, he finally realized what the red-haired man's lucky chance was.
There were only a few minutes left before the lioness gave birth to the children of the leader.
Since the leader was a Level 10 creature and had the chance to evolve, its children would also have the chance to evolve to an ordinary lifeform from an inferior lifeform. In the town of Wolfden, having a pet who could use energy from birth was a great deal. The red-haired man would make a fortune if he sold the cubs instead of making them his pet.
Since the man was only a level 7, he must've intended to steal the cub. But since the leader was a Level 10, that's why there were so many black lines.
Since Aakesh had already decided to make a move, he would kill the colony of the lions except for the newborn cubs, and then when the red-haired man arrived, he could take them.
Aakesh didn't make a move right now since he wanted the lioness to naturally give birth to her litters. He didn't want to take the newborn after cutting her stomach.
Time flew by. Seconds passed and then combined to turn into minutes, and then minutes passed by. Aakesh patiently waited for the lioness to give birth.
He could still see the red-haired man since he hadn't stopped the skill for even a second. He was still quite a distance away from the settlement and it would take him around an hour to reach here.
Suddenly, a painful roar rang in the surroundings. Aakesh knew it was time for the lioness to give birth to her cubs.
The next moment, another roar echoed in the area. It contained a hint of majesty, and it belonged to the leader of the settlement. Soon, another roar rang in the area in response to the first roar.
"Eh!" Aakesh couldn't help but feel surprised, hearing the roar. Since he knew almost all the languages that had been born in the Multiverse until now, he could understand what the roar meant.
The first roar asked whether the wolves had arrived, and in the response, the roar said, no.
"Are these cubs tributes to the wolves?" He muttered as he couldn't think of any other answer for why would the leader ask for the wolves.
There can also be another reason that wolves didn't like leaders having children, but the roar of the leader didn't contain any hint of fear, so Aakesh removed the conjecture from the head.
"Well, whatever, even if they're the tribute, what has that got to do with me?" He thought and waited for the lioness to give birth.
After gaining Level 30, he wasn't afraid of creatures below Level 40. He also didn't think that wolves above Level 40 would come for the child of a Level 10 Lion.
Time flew by, and several minutes passed. The surroundings had become silent, which got broken by a roar the next moment. The next moment, continuous roars rang in response to it.
It belonged to the leader lion, and the roar announced that the lioness had given birth to a single cub, and it would be the hope of their clan.
After getting the confirmation, Aakesh didn't wait and made his move. Like the wind, he moved, and when he passed the lions who were waiting for their prince, their heads began bursting one by one.
Not a single drop of blood touched Aakesh. It had only been three seconds, and he had already killed all the lions in the settlement except the father, mother, and the newborn.
The leader hearing the sudden silence, came out of the room, and the next moment his blood ran cold, seeing the blood dying the ground red and the headless corpses.
The difference between the leader and Aakesh wasn't only twenty levels, but it was also the difference in the lifeform. Aakesh was a rare lifeform, while it was only an inferior lifeform.
It was only thinking about what just happened when it suddenly lost its consciousness. "Thud!" With a crashing sound, its corpse crashed on the ground.
The lioness knew something had gone awry when she heard a crashing sound right after her husband left, but giving birth had cost a lot of energy, and she didn't even have enough energy even to stand. She looked at the cub crying for milk, and a gentle look appeared in her eyes.
It was the last thing she saw as the next moment, she had lost her consciousness, and her blood and brain matter spread on the ground. Aakesh didn't let a single drop touch him or the newborn cub.
He expressionlessly took a look at the newborn, and the next moment, it stopped crying and fell asleep. It had only taken birth, but it was already a Level 2 creature. If Aakesh were to have the same level of power he had in the real world, he would have enhanced the bloodline of the cub, making the chance for the red-haired man even bigger than it was.
Aakesh still didn't leave the area and returned to the tree. He was waiting if the wolves came.. He couldn't let the cub be taken by someone other than the red-haired man after his slaughter.
