Chapter 47: Unlocking the shop!
Unhurriedly opening his eyes, Leo immediately saw the group eating in the distance while beside him was Roy who was playing with his little dragon and white cat.
"Brother you're finally awake?" Roy suddenly raised his innocent brown eyes before continuing to play with the white snake on his palm, tickling it with his pointed finger.
Hiss... Hisssss. (The snake twisted its body as it released a hissing sound.)
"Hehehehe, aren't you naughty earlier?"
Smiling lightly upon seeing the smile on the child's face, Leo took a deep breath as he took a water bottle from his inventory.
As he was unhurriedly drinking and eating the bread that Roy gave him, Leo saw Kristine in the distance curiously glancing at him a couple of times before hesitantly approaching.
"Hehe, Leo I heard from Jake that you were quite careless earlier."
"Hmm... What?" Leo stared at Kristine in surprise before glancing at Jake's guilty expression in the distance.
His mouth... I didn't notice that he was gossipy... Sigh.
Sighing deeply Leo nodded awkwardly toward Kristine as he took a bite from the bread in his hand.
"Yes, fortunately, I have "Guardian Shield" casted on me that time."
"You have... Guardian Shield?" Kristine paused for a while as the corner of her lips suddenly twitched, on her forehead, a little vein could be seen throbbing.
"I see, I should not have believed that liar." She said as she took a long deep breath, forcefully calming her nerves.
"Liar?" Leo asked confusedly.
"Hmpp, yes, Jake said that you fought a Mid-Foundation feline on your own without any help... He even spread that you only barely killed the beasts while your body was covered with severe injuries."
That... That was clearly a b*llsh*t!
Leo couldn't help but curse inside his head as his eye twitched, fighting the impulse to show an ugly expression.
Gazing toward Jake, Leo saw the latter's back facing him, clearly acting like nothing happened. He even heard a weak whistle from Jake's location.
Sigh. Forget it.
Leo silently thought as he continued conversing with Kristine.
...
After minutes of conversation with Kristine, seeing that Kristine finally was walking away, approaching toward Jake's direction.
Leo finally let out a sigh of relief as he excitedly took out the blue scroll that he got on the corpse of the feline earlier.

"I see, following the flow of air and becoming light as a feather... Silently appearing and silently vanishing like a wind..." Leo mumbled under his breath. Looking at his feet, his eyes couldn't help but reveal a glint of light.
If he wanted to, he would be able to move without releasing a bit of sound right now. He also noticed that the skill could slightly hide his aura.
"It's a perfect combination with my invisibility skill!"
Although no one could see him after becoming invisible, the sound he produced when he moved under the skill is not silent and could possibly reveal his location... It could be said that the fight earlier is one of the proofs of this.
If not for his "Mist of Illusion" skill that could weaken the senses, his invisibility skill probably would have been useless in the fight with the feline earlier!
"The Rare skill is already great, then how about the epic one?"
Under his anticipated look, Leo excitedly took out the epic scroll in his inventory, instantly attracting the attention of the group in the distance.
However, surprisingly, after looking at the scroll in the hand of Leo, the group weakly shook their head as they continued what they were doing.
"He was too lucky to gain an epic scroll, even I haven't gained one."
"What can we do? He already joined our group and besides that, his strength is also could be considered our strength..."
"Sigh, I'm quite curious what kind of epic skill is that... I remembered that Roland's also has an epic protection skill."
"Hmmpp... He needed to treat us later for making us worry... Besides that, Jake really knows how to speak nonsense."
Under the gaze of the group, Leo remained unaffected as he stared at the description of the Epic scroll in front of him in a daze.

The...
Leo stared at the description of the Epic Scroll in shock. It's not because he found the skill strong but on the contrary, he found it quite lacking.
"Fortunately, it was quite similar to the white cat and dragon in the distance. They both have individual thoughts!
"The only problem is that I needed to wait for them to grow up in able to help him."
