Chapter 403: An Arrogant Leopard


    The march was quite for a moment here, as it seemed after conquering the tigers pack the other monsters were terrified. However, just after we marched for an hour, another big group of monsters appeared,ing from far, heading directly towards here.


    "Do you live in territories?" I asked as this was something that jumped off my mind.


    "Yes, master, and we just trespassed the territory of the leopards."


    "Leopards, interesting," I softly chuckled as I wanted to gain this fast and strong leopard under my army. "Attack and kill them all," I didn''t forget to give the demons my orders or else they wouldn''t attack even if they were injured!


    The next moment a brutal fight started, where we had the upper hand no matter how many monsters appeareding at us!


    And soon, the leader of this territory appeared, as a group of a hundred dark blue leopards appeared, with ferocious looking faces and small indentations in their heads like horns.


    "Great, another cat has appeared," I chuckled, as I raised my spear, pointed it towards the biggest leopard of them all, standing on the distance, observing the ongoing fight with his pack. "You will be the next to serve me," I dered, and the next moment the leopard, which I knew understood my words perfectly, roared a very long roar.


    "He is pissed," Lilly said but that made me evenugh. "Let him be, at the end of the day he either will be nice and wise, or cold and dead," I said before throwing off my spear to hunt down one of his leopards which started to dart rapidly towards me.


    "Snap!" I called my spear before throwing it again, then a snap and a throw, and I kept going on like this for minutes before the remaining slightly more than half of them reached my demons and tigress.


    And the real massacre started!


    It didn''t take even ten minutes to kill them all, and at the end I nced at the rear and soundly safe leopard as I said with a smile over my face:


    "C''mon be nice and surrender. Be my pet and serve under my banner, and I won''t mistreat you."


    As I didn''t even finish my words, the leopard showed a sign of defiance, and I knew he nned to escape even before I finished my words. how rude was that out of him?


    And the next moment I threw my spear to hit the ground at the ce which he nned to run at! He was fast, I give him that, but not ever faster than my spear or my reflexes.


    "Surrender and don''t test my patience here," I threatened as it seemed he didn''t intend on lowering his head to me even after throwing a couple more spears towards him.


    And just as I was about to give up on him, throw my final spear to kill him, he stopped in ce as Lily roared, said something to him in their monster tongue.


    This thing made this stubborn arrogant leopard stop, nced at me for a moment before roaring faintly as he lowered his head to me.


    "Ding Dong! The leopard prince is giving you his allegiance. Congrattions you gained a pet."


    "A prince?!" I muttered with some doubt, as I recalled what the system called upon Lilly when I imed her; a queen. "Isn''t there a king here?" I asked, with shining eyes.


    "Ding Dong! You didn''t give them the chance to evolve and fight among each other to elicit a king!"


    "Humph, no need for them to do that; I will be the alpha here with no equal!" I said with an arrogant tone as I turned to nce at the leopard, which could now speak with me in human tongue, and asked:


    "I''m curious, what made you surrender to me? what did she say to make you lower your stubborn head of yours?"


    The face of the leopard showed some annoyed expression, but I didn''t care. He was now my pet, and even my pets weren''t safe from my spear.


    "She said you promised to help her evolve with something you called the pearls," he said, before boldly raising his head as he added, "is this true?"


    "Swoosh!"


    The next moment he faced me with my spear inserted instantly in the ground in front of him, just inches away from his arrogant face. I red and said nothing, before snapping my fingers and taking the aim; this time I aimed for his life!


    "Sorry, m- master," he said, in a tone that seemed forced, while lowering his head. "Humph," I harrumphed while putting my spear to the side as I said:


    "I do have these pearls that can evolve you, but only the brave and most trusted ones of you will gain it. until you have a name I know of, you aren''t even qualified to be considered part of my trusted circle."


    I said, dering my clear stance towards him, and he just faintly roared, a short one, before saying:


    "Master, I have a name."


    "I have no need for it now, keep it to your arrogant high self," I said, before totally ignoring him as I said to the stupefied Lilly:


    "Lead the way to anotherir."


    "S- Sure master," she stuttered, surprised and scared of my other firm side that she never expected. In each army there would be some brave and really talented soldiers, but they usually are arrogant and defy rules.


    Going soft on them aiming for their contribution and rare talents wouldn''t let them be satisfied, instead they would go further and cause more troubles than their value.


    One must be firm with this kind of person. I didn''t know why, but I felt my personality had grown since I woke up here. "Follow here, and you just don''t be left out or you won''t get any credit for this fight," I said while ncing at my grown up body as I muttered:


    ''Did I also grow in mind and personality during my sleep in these years? Fascinating!''
