Prime Originator

Leon hopped on the back of the three-tailed silver wolf and patted, "Let's go, Silver. To the forest!"

"Arf, arf."

Knowing where Leon wanted to go, the three-tailed silver wolf barked twice before charging straight into the burning forest.

Regular fires might be feared by low-level Wingrats, but it was like summer temperature for a Transcendent-level beast like the three-tailed silver wolf.

Nevertheless, Silver did not get to showcase its resilience to fire as Leon waved his hands and parted the smothering flames of the Great Forest ahead of them, along with the blackened vine walls that crumbled apart like broken charcoal.

Swoosh~!

They immediately brushed past the divided flames and scattered black ashes in an instance with lightning-fast speed, carrying a trailing rush of wind along that blew apart the divided flames and scattered black ashes further!

Leon was surprised by the three-tailed silver wolf's alarming speed, but he managed to grab hold of its fur before he was swept off its back by the wind pressure.

"Quite the fast one, aren't you?" Leon rubbed its back with his spare hand before asking, "But how fast can you really go?"

"Arf, Arf!'

The three-tailed silver wolf suddenly paused in tracks before lowering its hind legs like it was recoiling springs. At the same time, its three tails pressed against the ground like they were another set of three legs.

"Awooo!" Silver issued a mighty howl before bolting forward immediately with more incredible speed than previously shown!

"Hahaha! Nice, Silver! Keep it up!" Leon laughed with praise, enjoying the thrill of the ride as they raced back to the elven tribe.

His jubilant mood also infected Silver, causing it to become excited and want to test the limits of its speed by pushing itself.

As Silver's speed steadily increased, Leon silently calculated with surprise, 'At this rate, I will be able to return to Elvengarde in no time.'

He honestly did not expect the Transcendent-level silver wolf to possess such incredible speed. It was far from what it had shown during its battles with the rat.

If it had raced at this sort of velocity from the start, it would easily bulldoze its way through the rat tide with ease and crush all rats to death upon impact with its body.

Leon forgot to account for the fact that the three-tailed silver wolf had become stronger after shrinking its size and consuming the supreme-grade spirit stone he fed it.

Sometime later, Silver arrived at the southern outskirts of Elvengarde with Leon on its back.

Leon's hair had all been blown back by the strong wind, giving him a fresh look despite being covered in dried up saliva and blood.

"Ahhh! There's a beast in the tribe! What is it doing here?!"

"Ahh, noo! It's a three-tailed silver wolf! Everyone, run!"

Silver's sudden appearance in the tribe quickly frightened the nearby elves into fleeing from the area with all their strength.

The matter blew up and quickly drew the Supreme Elder's attention, along with thousands of elven warriors rushing over.

"Huh? Isn't that the Skysilver Beast King? How did it get into the forest?" an elven warrior exclaimed with wide eyes upon arriving at the scene.

However, another elven warrior quickly refuted, "The Skysilver Beast King? How can the Skysilver Beast King be so small?"

"Is this the Skysilver Beast King's offspring? Why is it here without its father?"

"Nonsense, the Skysilver Beast King doesn't have any offspring."

Another group of elven warriors guessed Silver's identity before it was also quickly refuted by another group of elven warriors.

When Silver saw so many elves looking at it warily with defensive stances, it also became guarded and howled mightily to exert its dominance, "Awooo!"

"Ahh!" Some elves began to cover their ears from the three-tailed silver wolf's mighty howl and retreated several steps, intimidated by its strong presence.

"Transcendent-level beast!"

Some of the elven warriors quickly determined before one of them spoke, "There's only one Transcendent-level three-tailed silver wolf around here, and it is none other than the Skysilver Beast King itself!"

"Oh my god, how did the Skysilver Beast King become so small? Wait, there's someone on its back!" Another elven warrior shouted in discovery.

At the same time, Leon calmed the three-tailed silver wolf down with a few pats, "Easy, Silver. Everything is going to be okay."

"Arf, arf!" Silver barked in response, indicating that it understood and no longer prepared to attack the elven warriors.

Nevertheless, it still growled at them, "Grrr!"

Eeek!

Few elves were successfully intimidated before the three-tailed silver wolf raised its head pompously, satisfied with the elves' reactions.

"Quit it."

Leon gave it a quick nudge before hopping off Silver's back, landing on the ground with a thud.

Shortly after, Supreme Elder Haldir and Aria arrived as they descended from the sky, landing not far from Leon.

"Young prince."

"Leon, you're back."

They both welcomed him back before Supreme Elder Haldir turned his attention to Silver behind Leon and asked uncertainly, "This is…?"

"The Skysilver Beast King." Leon smiled before adding, "Well, it's my tamed beast, Silver now."

"How is that possible?" Supreme Elder Haldir widened his eyes in surprise.

He thought he had seen many things, but nothing was surprising like this since the World Tree's appearance.

"Never mind that." Leon shortly shook his head and said while gazing up at the sky, "You taught the elven warriors well."

Thousands of elven warriors could be seen flapping their wings in the sky, while there were also those standing on the ground with their own pair of wings.

"Not really. There were just quick learners." Supreme Elder Haldir shook his head, not intending to take credit for the elven warrior's efforts.

Leon nodded before asking Aria, "Did you pass the exploding pill bottles to Marquis Haldir?"

"About that, I asked Miss Aria to continue holding onto for the time being. It's far too dangerous to have those things lying around." Supreme Elder Haldir quickly interjected wryly before Aria could answer.

"True." Leon nodded in agreement.

The exploding pills were made for their survival, but they must be careful not to be burned by their own chief weapon against the rat tide.

A single mistake would cause a greater tragedy than what the rat tide could bring them.
