Protagonist? Antagonist? I Reject Both

A chilly air blew over the walls.

In the midst of soldiers guarding the walls, a woman stood there holding a binoculars to observe the distant land.

"Milady, did you spot him?"A servant asked who stood beside her.

"He is gone!" She muttered.

Her tone sounded emotionless and cold.

"Are you sad?"

Elena lowered her binoculars and handed it over to the servant.

"It’s good that he is gone.I found his presence disgusting."

"It didn’t look like it when you were sticking close to Sir Leon, "The servant girl muttered, rolling her lips.

"Yuna, you talk too much.."

"Ah..Forgive me..."

.....

Meanwhile, Leon suddenly found in a precarious situation.

The black worms’ bodies suddenly started glowing with a reddish-brown color. SSSHHHH!

A sizzling sound echoed and the temperature of the surroundings started increasing rapidly.

The faint smell of something burning arose around the periphery.

Leon’s first thought was to engage the second black cum now turned red worm that was closest to him, but upon feeling the intense wave of heat that permeated the environment, he changed his mind.

He initially thought it would be nothing serious since there were only about twenty black worms in the vicinity, but now he realized just how wrong he was.

His upper black clothes were burned off instantly. Thankfully, he wore special fiber heat resistance cloth inside otherwise he would have to move around fully naked.

The environment became so hot and dry that Leon felt ten hotness as if he was thrown in- between smoldering flames.

He immediately turned around to head towards the west side of the place. He felt stinging burn pains already across his body while escaping the large-scale attack.

His skin had already turned beet red.

Squeeee! Squeeee! Squeeee! Squeeee!

The worms chased after him crazily from behind but were unable to catch up.

Some were slightly faster than others, so Leon wasn’t able to shake them off, but the slower ones got left in the dust.

’What’s with this incomplete information I keep getting?’ Leon had the urge to facepalm while running within the dense woods.

The information on the black worms that he sourced stated a particular amount of temperature that each worm emits.

He calculated the rise of the temperature in the surroundings based on the combined temperature of the twenty-plus black worms and concluded that he would still be okay if they were to activate the power. But to his surprise, the temperature was way higher than that.

He wondered how it would have felt if there were more black worms in the vicinity.

The trees and other things that could be found in the environment were unaffected because they had adapted to this habitat.

The current state of the black worms served to further enrich them.Also, some of the black worms had speeds that were higher than dash, unlike the information he saw on the web.

.

Leon reckoned that this wasn’t the first time such a thing was happening. He still wondered why the information given wasn’t up to standard and decided that next time, he would source information on mixed-breeds from a more secure place.

For example directly infliritate the General room and hack into his computer.

Leon got to a particular part of the forest and leaped upwards.

Thoom!

He grabbed onto a tree branch, which bent a little due to his weight before catapulting him further up.

The worms beneath paused in their tracks and slightly raised the upper part of their body to stare upwards.

They could see Leon ascending the tree at a rapid pace.

Squeeee!

The worms immediately darted towards the tree.

To Leon’s surprise, they started climbing upwards with speed. This was another piece of information that wasn’t added, and Leon thought it would be impossible for them to climb a tree since most of these creatures can’t retain a lot of the properties that existed in the animals they originated from.

Just like the black worms were originally worms and a worm would be able to climb up a tree while a mixed-breed that seemed to have originated from that wouldn’t have those basic

Properties.

At this moment, only about seven black worms had caught up with him while the rest were still far behind.

The temperature had reduced to a bearable amount now.

He kept jumping upwards, heading from lower branches to higher branches.

This tree was about fifty-seven meters tall, and each black worm was around three meters in length, so they weren’t too big to climb it.

Leon got to a height of over fifty meters and stared at the worms climbing up with intensity.

When they were close to getting to the branch he was currently squatting on, he jumped down.

Swoosh!

His body traveled downwards with speed for about five seconds before he landed on the

Ground.

Bam!

Leon landed and looked around him. Only about six worms were in the vicinity, five had climbed up the tree while around nine of them were still behind, trying to catch up.

Swooosh!

Leon dashed forward with intense speed and swung out his sword, which was coated in a

Whitish glow.

Swahili!

The side of the worm was cut open with hot blood spilling out.

Leon dashed backward to dodge the hot blood that was jetted out.

This was the reason he didn’t want to engage with them, otherwise he could kill them with

One punch but which guy in right mind would touch such slimy things.

Secondly, it was hard to access their strength. All he saw was preveloved 0.5..0.5

But what was this level of power compared to his Martial Realm.

Another worm had leaped towards Leon when he attacked the first one, so when he leaped

Backward, he was leaping towards the worm.

He extended both his arms in separate directions while in mid-air and slashed down in an ’X’ format. The black worm was completely severed into four different parts.

Splush!

Blood blasted in all directions and some of them fell on Leon’s chest.

Shhhhh!

Some thumb-sized holes were burned through his flesh and penetrated deep into his body.

"Ugh!" Leon landed on the ground and dashed towards the side while holding his chest.

The hole in his chest showed his blood vessels.

"Damn, I should be more careful," Leon muttered and then used his draconic transformation.

Thick scales grew and covered his body.

Although the blood really hurt and did damage when it fell on his body, his draconic

Regenerative ability kicked in, so his chest was starting to close up at a fairly rapid pace.

Twoosh!

One of the worms on the left spat out a silver-colored liquid towards Leon.

Swooosh!

Leon dodged it by a hair’s length and dashed towards the creature while brandishing his

Claws.

Slash! Slash! Slash! Slash!

[You have gained 50 experience points.]

[You have gained 50 experience points.]

And this notification screen also annoyed him.

None of these worms as to say were below Martial Grandmaster in terms of speed yet the

Experience points they give was so pitiful.

He hacked at the black worm several times, turning its body into shredded pieces of meat. The liquid shot out earlier had eradicated some fallen trees in the surroundings.

It had a powerful corroding ability, but it also released a kind of gas into the atmosphere that

Puts the human senses to sleep.

So even though Leon was not hit, it was slowly starting to affect him. Leon knew about this, but he still had to deal with the black worms in the surroundings so

There would only be a few left when the ones on the tree and behind caught up with him. He moved from place to place, slashing at the black worms.
