Looking at the sky, Chief Lago suddenly said, "I need to take care of the village related stuff. I'll see you again tomorrow."

"Thank you!" Leo waved his hand to bid farewell to the walking Chief Lago. Turning his head, he then noticed Levi circling around Ahmed and Brad at the side of a tree near the training ground.

"Is he okay?"

"I think so... Piero only steps over him, so it should be alright," Brad replied.

"I'm just tired..." Piero said, "This little one here really pushed me till exhaustion."

"That wasn't even exhausting, see..." Levi said as he went tens of circles up above them, "Still not tired, at all!"

Leo just simply rolled his eyes after hearing Levi's words. This little one lives and hunts in the sea, not to mention he is also a Leviathan, a Magical Beast with the potential to become much more powerful than Holy Magical Beast, so his energy is definitely on a whole different level from Humans. Moreover, Chief Lago had just said a while ago that something was wrong with Ahmed's cultivation, so it might be because of that why he easily runs out of energy. Or maybe it's just because the same as what Ahmed had said, Levi pushed him to the limit of his exhaustion.

"Let's go to a much more comfortable place," Leo suggested as he motioned for Brad to help him assist Ahmed back to the latter's house.

After a while, Leo along with Levi laying comfortably on his shoulder, and Brad assisting him in carrying Ahmed finally arrived at Ahmed's house.

Unlike everyone else's huts, Ahmed's house actually looked so small. It was just a square hut estimated to have 5 meters on all sides.

"You actually live here?" Leo can't help but ask. The hut was just too small, or it's more appropriate to call it tiny, to be considered as a home. Even if Ahmed doesn't have any family in here, since he was washed ashore, he should have at least have a much more comfortable home.

Getting inside, the only thing that Leo could see was a small bed and a basket with some dirty clothes inside.

Leo and Brad slowly and carefully put Ahmed's body on his bed, making him feel comfortable.

"I'll go back and get the fishes!" Brad suddenly volunteered.

Leo and Ahmed just nodded their heads as they watched Brad running off to bring the bucket of fishes in Ahmed's house.

"I don't mean to be rude, but where do you even put your food?" Leo curiously asked.

"Under the bed or just give it to either the neighbors or Brad," Ahmed replied without feeling embarrassed about it.

Of course, Leo was quick to understand what Ahmed meant about. Ahmed doesn't have any storage with ice, so fishes would just go bad if he left them lying around for a day. So, it's indeed much better to just give it to someone else. Although Ahmed could actually just dry the fish under the heat of the sun, and eat dried fish, maybe he just doesn't prefer such food, since he didn't see him having any around his house.

"I have heard from Chief Lago that the coming of age competition is coming this week. How does this competition work?" Leo curiously asked. Although Chief Lago had said that the coming of age competition was coming, he didn't tell him how it works. Maybe it was a one-on-one fight, or something else, he doesn't know.

"Oh, it's actually pretty simple. We just need to hunt for Magical Beast, and whoever has the most Magical Beast that they have hunted would win." Ahmed explained.

"Then what do you think would be your result?"

"Maybe I'll be able to hunt 5 to 10 Magical Beast only..." Ahmed shook his head helplessly, "Due to the condition of my body, my energy would easily run out. Moreover, the Magic spell I have integrated with me is the plain and simple Water Shield spell."

"Oh, you have already successfully completed a Magic Integration?" Leo can't help but be astonished.

"Yeah... A situation actually forced me to." Ahmed said before he suddenly looked up at the ceiling, "I heard Chief Lago telling you about my past back when I was still a kid. It actually happened back then. When I and some of the village kids were simply playing nearby the Twilight Forest, a black colored Magical Beast suddenly attacked us. The Magical Beast was supposedly going to attack the nearby girl, but I was fast enough to push her away. The Magical Beast didn't really do anything bad to me, aside from it devoured some of my Magic power. Ever since then, my cultivation could only improve by a meager amount."

"Can you still described how this Magical Beast looked like?" Leo suddenly asked. He had read many books about Magical Beast before, and there were only a few Magical Beast that eat Magic power, maybe one of them was the Magical Beast that had attacked Ahmed. Therefore, they might be able to know if there is a cure for it and if it does how they will get it.

"It was full black in color. It has a galaxy looking eyes, and it stands in 4 paws with some tiny little wings attached to its back. Oh, and also, when it opened its mouth to eat my Magic power, it looked like I was staring at the night sky without any stars, just plain and empty void."

After hearing Ahmed's description, Leo's eyes immediately lit up brightly, "There is only one Magical Beast that fits your description. And I have only read a few books about it, which also mentioned that this kind of Magical Beast is almost non-existing due to them being extremely rare. They are called Void Eater, a kind of Magical Beast that was said to live upon the stars."

"Oh, so my cultivation would remain like this forever, right?" Ahmed said as he understood something in his mind. Basing on what Leo had just said, it was pretty much easy to understand that the Void Eaters are powerful Magical Beast. Therefore, his problem is also something that can't easily be fixed, or maybe it really can't be fixed.

"That's not true, right...?"

Suddenly, a girl's voice sounded outside of Ahmed's hut.

Turning his head, Leo immediately saw a beautiful girl with a seemingly similar level of beauty with Anna, specifically Alfred's girlfriend. She has blue hair and blue eyes that really reflect the beauty of the ocean. However, looking closely at her eyes, he soon saw tears trying to escape out from it.

"Jasmine, what are you doing here?" Ahmed said in shock.

"Tell me that it's not true, please..." The girl with the name Jasmine asked while looking at Leo with hopeful eyes.

"I can't say that I'm 100% sure, but basing on Ahmed's description, I can only say that it should be the Void Eater that had attacked him," Leo replied.

"It's all my fault..." Jasmine tearfully said, "I shouldn't have called out for your help back then." After finishing her words, she quickly runs out of the hut.

Brad suddenly rushed inside, "What was that?"

"She heard our conversation..." Ahmed heaved a sigh of helplessness.

.....

"Oh, so it's a Void Eater that had attacked Ahmed back then." Brad finally understands everything, "But why did she cry?"

"Maybe she felt guilty about it," Ahmed replied.

"That was my fault... If only I looked around first before saying anything, we could have definitely avoided that." Leo said. But in his mind, he actually lied. To be honest, as an assassin trained by the number one assassin of Silver Kingdom, he obviously already felt the presence of Jasmine outside of the hut. She arrived exactly the moment Brad left. He just didn't mention it and had even purposely talked about the past in order for him to create such a scene. And the next thing was to set up the final piece in order to bring Ahmed to his side.

"It's okay..." Ahmed just shook his head, "She will eventually find out about it, anyway. And besides, isn't it much better this way? At least, she doesn't need to keep on thinking every night what's wrong with me."

"You stalk her?" Brad shockingly reacted. He really didn't expect that his best-friend Ahmed would actually stalk Jasmine in her house, specifically the house of the village Chief Lago, since she is the grandfather of Jasmine.

"At first, I only passed by at her house and saw her wearing a sad look in her eyes while talking with herself and walking around in a circle repeatedly. It was too different from how we always see her every time, since she always seems to be full of happiness, hence I silently approached the window of her room hoping to listen to her problem. And it was right then that I discovered it was actually because of her guilt about what had happened in the past. Ever since then, I keep on secretly watching her in the dark, and I always see the same thing over and over again. At least for now. She doesn't need to worry about my problem anymore. In my opinion, she would definitely try to work harder first in order for her to catch that so-called Void Eater, which is obviously impossible since after that day we haven't seen that Magical Beast anymore."

"Indeed!" Leo can't help but be astonished by Ahmed's thinking. This person is really smart.

"I hope that's the case, though..." Brad said with doubt in his voice. In his opinion, Jasmine might just run away from her house today to hunt for that Void Eater.

"Actually, I can help you become strong without relying on Magic. Although I can't really assure whether you can hunt 1 Star Magical Beast, but hunting the No Star Magical Beast should be easy for you." Leo said as he smiled mischievously.. Now was the perfect time to lure in the bait.
