The Cold-Blooded Sword Expert
Dark shadows

The villain leader, Mateo understood that he made too much of a light source. Thus, making a shadow of the ability of his opponent is created. Obviously, it would hurt him.

So he put out a wall of fire of his own, which made no light source at all. Because what? Because the shadow itself is created when the light source is produced, that's Mateo's thought about a shadow talent, or shadow magic belongs to Leo. And that's why, Leo carries a torch at night which in fact is his own weapon.

It was clear that the atmosphere had darkened, there was not a single speck of light. There is no moon because it is in a new moon. Only stellar trinkets have absolutely no effect on lighting.

Leo was behind the darkness while holding tightly to his sword, this would be such a serious matter if he were in the darkness. And sure enough, he felt a mound of earth rising up which made him have to retreat backwards.

“Magic mounds of earth? They were able to guess where I was.” Leo's mind is quite soft.

He knew exactly, that sight was completely useless. Instincts that need to be used in a fight like this. In his analysis, the two subordinates of the thug leader, they looked completely useless as they possessed ordinary elemental magic. While Mateo's property is not just an elemental.

The point is like the property of old man Gin who in general should be Wind Magic, but what he has is Shizen no Kaze.

“Feel this!” One of the men shouted that indicated that an attack was about to be launched.

This makes Leo follow where the voice comes from. Only, he also had to be on full alert on various sides since not only one person was here. He also positioned his sword vertically to resist a sword slash.

The sound of the sword pounding, giving a spark that gave a little lighting. Leo opened his eyes wide when he saw the pitch-black tiger behind the person as if it was about to pounce on him.

Who would have thought that Leo had no fear or panic at all, obviously he only immediately retreated because the fight had started when a scream and skin was torn so brutally that made Leo a little bit sick.

“What happened?” Said one of the people with a panicked face. Likewise with Mateo who feels this is impossible to light a fire because it will make the shadow of Leo created.

“You assume that my talent requires an entity of light? That's a big mistake!” Shouted Leo in response to Mateo's subordinate who should have asked himself.

Although, Leo himself also gritted his teeth, as well as gritting his teeth firmly about the shadow tiger attacking Mateo's subordinates. Moreover, Leo had heard a second time that signified that Mateo's subordinates had been torn to shreds.

Is it not without reason that the shadow tiger is a big deal? Carrying a torch did not mean he needed a light source, it was not entirely wrong. However, the light itself will weaken the shadow objects, especially wild animals made shadows by Leo.

And it is precisely when there is no light, the shadow animal will be very strong, large, and more savage. The situation would also be very difficult to control, and it could be a weapon to eat master for Lei himself.

Loe calls this Dark Shadow, which is evolution due to certain circumstances of a shadow object, especially a shadow animal.

This kind of problem that old man Gin obviously knows about. In the past, Leo had been locked in a cave in conditions with shadow beasts. This will be an exercise for Leo on how to control it. It could kill itself, because the beast of the shadow can tear Leo apart.

And until now Leo himself will also have difficulty controlling Dark Shadow as if moving with the abilities of the animal itself. However, it was simply impossible to tame it.

“What! What happened?” The Mateo instantly became panicked when he heard the sound of shouts and ripped sounds from wild animals.

So there's no other way for him but to get the fireball out of his hand to see what's going on?

Simultaneously, he could see her a shadow tiger tail that was three times the size of the previous one was jumping towards Mateo which made her really very surprised.

Mateo will reflexively issue defensive fire to dispel the uncontrollable shadow tiger. However, it turns out that the tiger did not disappear after penetrating the wall of fire that the thugs created.

"Defensive fire spear!"

Not wanting to give up, he made another wall in front of him, which was the wall of fire that was used for defense. Merely, the wall had dozens of fire spears, so that the one approaching was not only burnt, but heavily injured. It should be very easy to cast a shadow.

Two dark shadow tigers actually have minds like humans. Utilizing the natural agility that the tiger possesses, the two shadow animals instead take a detour to surrender the thug leader.

Thus, the fire spear shot belonging to the thug leader seemed so futile.

"No, wait!”

He could only scream because he did not know how. However, along with that too, Leo appeared as fast as a shadow which then strangled one of his shadow tigers and slammed him on the ground. 

So, the impact made the shadow tiger disappear. While the other shadow tiger after seeing his partner die, he immediately moved towards Leo to make an attack.

It was very natural, because the tiger shadow after experiencing dark shadow would not be controlled. However, it would definitely be able to be tamed just like Leo tamed a wild animal as usual.

Leo jumped at the tiger without any fear. All he did was ride the shadow tiger until the animal would bow down and calm down. Although it was not easy like Leo had to feel the shock and anger of his own shadow tiger.

Actually it was not long at all and only lasted a few minutes. Before, the shadow tiger with Leo riding it moved towards the villain leader in a slightly horrified state.

"Before, did you understand about the assassin with the symbol of the dancing leaves?" 

"I don't know at all! I'm just here to be told. Well, we became petty criminals not without reason, as if we were working under pressure and slavery. Because if there's no deposit, maybe we'll be beaten with a lump of wood to bruise." Said the man with fear.

On the other hand, he also did not believe that he would become so humiliating. How not? He who was at the initial '4' level seemed to have to endure the defeat disrespectfully at the hands of someone with an intermediate '3' level. Obviously it would be bad news for him if anyone else saw it.

"Slavery?”
