"I sll human in this area." A 3-star Lion spoke abruptly.
The Lion was two ters tall with a scar on its face.
Its skin was golden, and a pair of wings could be seen on its body.
The Winged Lion was thrilled when he slled human because it had been five months since the last ti he killed a human.
'The sll is coming from this direction.'
The Winged Lion walked happily as he followed the sll of humans.
At the sa ti, Ren was sitting on a big stone and checking his system, protecting Evelyn, who was taking a bath in the lake.
He still had not noticed the presence of the Winged Lion because the distance between them was around one hundred ters.
[Host, the system suggests you look for magical beasts with light affinity and kill them because having a Health Potion is like having two lives.]
'I also want to do that, but I need to protect Evelyn for now.'
He would have looked for magical beasts if he were alone because he also wanted to level up his system.
'A magical beast?'
He rose to his feet and looked in the direction where the Winged Lion was.
Ren ordered his system to keep using Scan Feature, so he could notice the presence of the Winged Lion because the distance between them was only forty ters now.
[Host, the aura of this magical beast is strong. It seems like this magical beast is already at 3-star.]
Ren looked at Evelyn for two seconds before finally using the Lightning Movent skill to check the magical beast.
'That magical beast should be in this place soon.'
Ren, who was standing on a tree branch, skimd his surroundings.
At the sa ti, the 3-star Winged Lion ca out of the bushes.
"The sll is getting strong. It seems like I'm already close to my prey." The Winged Lion sped up his steps because it could not wait to kill humans.
[Host, it's a 3-star Winged Lion. We need to leave this place imdiately.]
Ren turned around and used the Lightning Movent skill to return to the lake.
"Human?" the Winged Lion noticed Ren. "Human, stop!"
"Tch!' Ren clicked his tongue in annoyance.
'This is annoying.'
He hated to admit it, but he was no match for the Winged Lion, so they could only run away from it.
Right after reaching the lake, Ren took Evelyn's clothes and approached her.
Evelyn, who was taking a bath behind a big stone, was shocked and imdiately hid in water, causing him to only see her head.
"Ren, what are you doing?" he had never peeked at her before, so his actions stunned her.
'Why is he holding my clothes too? Is he going to do sothing to ? But he had never done this before. What's wrong with him?'
Countless questions popped up in her mind.
When he was about to answer her question, the Winged Lion's roar reverberated in the entire area.
[It's already too late, Host. The Winged Lion is already here.]
'Should I just lure the Winged Lion to leave this lake?'
It was already too late to take Evelyn out of the lake, so he suddenly had the idea of luring the Winged Lion into leaving the lake.
'Yes. I think it's a better idea.'
He had promised to protect her, so he would not put her in danger.
Ren imdiately threw her clothes at her and said in a low voice. "Don't make a sound and hide in the water."
Right after she grabbed her clothes, the Winged Lion's voice rang out.
"Human, are you done playing hide and seek now? Why don't you run away from again? I will play with you before killing you." the Winged Lion did not attack Ren imdiately; instead, he walked toward Ren leisurely as if Ren's life was already in his hands.
Evelyn, who was hiding behind a big stone, finally knew everything.
Ren had no intention of peeking at her.
He wanted to protect her from the Winged Lion!
'The Lion can speak human language. It should be at least 3-star.'
She could not use magic now, so she could not tell how strong the Winged Lion was.
"Kitty, I stopped running because you were too slow. It would not be fun if you lost sight of imdiately." Ren insulted the Winged Lion on purpose because, with this, the Winged Lion's full attention would be directed at him.
"Kitty? You dare call this king kitty?!" the Winged Lion was enraged because calling him kitty was the sa as insulting him.
Sure, the Lion and the cat were from the sa family, but they were completely different beings.
Lions roared while cats purred.
Lions were born as kings, while cats were born as weak beasts.
Lions had strong bodies, while cats had weak bodies.
The difference between them was like heaven and earth so the Winged Lion felt insulted when Ren put him on the sa level as cats.
Ren was pleased when he got the Winged Lion's full attention. "Why are you mad at ? Aren't you guys the sa? After all, you are also a cat. You only have a bigger body, nothing more than that."
"Human, you have successfully made angry." the Winged Lion could not suppress its anger so it opened its mouth and created a red sphere of fla.
The orb of fla grew in size quickly, and the temperature in the lake suddenly beca hot.
Ren jumped into a tree because he did not want Evelyn to be hit by the Winged Lion's powerful attack.
When the Winged Lion shot the fireball toward him, Ren used the Lightning Movent skill to avoid it.
Like before, Ren insulted the Winged Lion again.
Every ti he avoided the Winged Lion's attack, he would insult and mock it because he wanted the Winged Lion to keep paying attention to him.
"Hey, kitty. Co and get if you can." Ren used the Lightning Movent skill to leave the lake.
"Human, I will tear your body into pieces." Right after saying that, the Winged Lion spread its wings and chased him.
After they disappeared into the distance, Evelyn ca out of the water.
'Ren...'
A sign of worry could be seen on her face.
Ren's Warrior class was at Elite rank, and his Mage class was only at 1-star, so she knew Ren was no match for the Winged Lion.
But despite that, he still protected her.
He even lured the Winged Lion to chase him as if her life was more important than his life.
"We should leave this place imdiately."
"Yes. This place is no longer safe."
Two Rens ca out from her right side.
"Ren?" Evelyn was startled when she saw two Rens.
"We are only clones." One of the clones responded, "The real us could not protect you because he needed to lure the Winged Lion to leave this place, so he created us to protect you until tomorrow."
Today was the last day she could not use magic, so their task was to protect her until tomorrow morning.
"Let's leave this place now." After she put on her clothes, one of the clones carried her and used the Lightning Movent skill to leave the lake.
The other clone guarded them from the front, protecting them from magical beasts and evil awakeners.
Evelyn turned her head toward the lake.
'Ren, please stay alive until tomorrow.'
