....

Around the huge forest covered by thick and gigantic trees, weird plants and wild beast grew and roamed. Here wildlife seems to flourish with little to no disturbance from outside interference.

A small group of three traveller were roaming around this vary forest and seemed to be searching for something.

Their presence seems to be contrasting with the current place and they looked out of place. They seem to have a map of the area and which directed than away from any dangerous zones and avoiding confrontation with fearsome existence.

"Young Miss, please slow down! You will get hurt." A huge man middle-aged man exclaimed as he tries to advice a teenage looking girl for her own safety. He seem to be way more worried about the girl falling down and get injured than any interception by a wild beast.

"Yes Miss. Gill is right. There is no need to be so excited" Another one said in a calm voice, He looked to be a teenager himself but a heroic aura oozed from his presence.

"Gill, Eta. How can I be calm? I am finally getting my beast. In the future, maybe I will be able to become strong like daddy. This has always been my lifelong dream! " The teenager girl turned around as she shouted while she was skipping around. She was a extremely pretty girl with childish cuteness very apparent on her face. She wore a sky colored dress and her dress seems to indicate her noble prestige.

Both of her companion had wry smile on their face. The guys were wearing similar outfit to each other, which looked like a Knight's armor. They were presumably Guards to this Noble girl.

"It's not like anything wrong will happen to me, with you guys here! " The girl spoke excitedly, presumably very confident and sure about the abilities of her guards.

"Even the-" The huge man was about to advice her but the other young knight cut her off.

"Miss is right. With us here, nothing could go wrong. Master was sure of our strength that is why he left your safety in our hand." The Young Knight said as he looked at the teenager girl with a warm gaze. There was tenderness and love in his gaze.

The middle aged man saw this but choose to keep mum and shook his head. He knows that this Young Knight named Eta had a childhood crush on young miss. Even though he is a extremely talented and bright individual reaching strength equivalent to his own's at a very young age, it's all for naught. The gap between their status is just too much.

"See? Eta said so, in these parts there is nothing to worry abo-" The girl stopped midway through her sentence as her gaze fall on a peculiar scene which took her attention away. She kept staring straight through the trees and into a slightly open space.

A little far from the group, there on a huge patch of land, there were beast's bones scattered and littered around everywhere.

Bones in wilderness is a common occurrence but the sheer amount of it was just ridiculous and the presence was suffocating.

Both the Knights caught on to her change in behavior and immediately came over to the scene to look at it. There was a ridiculous amount of dead beasts laying there dead and decaying. There were lots of crushed bones and some beast's were without whole body. The scene didn't looked like a dwelling for a gluttonous beast rather a site of a massacre. The pungent smell of decomposing meat permeated throughout the area.

"What is this?" Eta spoked as he looked at his companion. The little girl was also shocked and looked at Gill to see if he knows anything. Gill was a veteran Knight and has been serving her family for an extremely long time, his experience is rich and he has been to the wilderness on many occasions. If one were to ask who is the strongest in her family after her father then it's definitely Gill.

Gill face was grim as he looked at the scene, "There must be an extremely dangerous beast residing here. Although this is my first time seeing such a scene, looking at the beast corpses many of them are of high level, some are far stronger than me. For something to be able to kill so many of them, it's definitely very dangerous. We must vacate the premises right now! "

Eta nodded, still horrified by gazing at this scene. Even though he is a genius Knight with great potential and has reached Gill's level in strength, he is still too green. He lacks the humongous amount of experience and knowledge that Gill has. So he didn't even try to say otherwise after Gill made his decision.

Everyone unanimously agreed to leave immediately, and they fled away from the scene. As they retraced their path, they found trials of a few beast gathering around the area and had to change route.

After half an hour of rushing their attention was focused on a strange scene there. They came across a small hill covered with white colored flowers, these are called ozanama, an ornamental flower with calming scent.

What took their attention was not these flowers but a strange figure laying there on the flower bed.

He had his legs crossed and slightly raised in the air, as he slept on his arms folded behind his head used as a pillow, It seems as though he is resting there right in the middle of nowhere.

The figure was of a man and he looked extremely imposing, his black hair were open and unrestrained like waterfall looking even more charming with the white flowers on the background. His skin was glowing with a beautiful pale radiance.

He raised his head and had a smile on his face, his eyes were flaming red and his face was mesmerizing. His skin looked a little sickly but that didn't reduce his charm one bit.

This figure was obviously - Leylin.

Three months have passed since Leylin has crashed here. All this time he has rested recuperating and trying to minimize the suppression of this world meanwhile his 'Sheshnaag' hunted for various wild animals and killing them right before Leylin's underground base, enabling him to absorb the sentient force from them.

All this time various beast were hunted, and slaughter by it in Leylin's base as he tried to speed up his recovery.

Sheshnaag also roamed around the forest for surveillance against dangerous and odd events as he marked numerous 'Hotspots'. Just yesterday, he got information about the first sighting of humans in all this time. So Leylin exited his seclusion and came out.

'I have recovered a good amount, It should be enough for me to explore for now and I am also very eager to get the general understanding of this world's level and power distribution. ' Leylin thought as he looked at the Noble lady and her entourage, he could feel slight resemblance of Knight's Strength from this two individual guarding her. There is no one who is more familiar with Knight's Path than Leylin himself, so even with their strange difference from the usual power level and aura, he could sense the general outline of their power levels.

The teenage girl on the other hand gave him a weird feeling. After checking her through the scan from A.I. Chip, Leylin concluded her strength to be equivalent of a Level 1 Acolytes but strangely enough Leylin didn't feel spiritual force from her but instead something else...
