As A Cardinal, I Don't Do Overtime Chapter 161
Advertisement
San Lorenzo, in the easternmost jungle.
The chirping of birds surrounded the forest.
The sound of the river was like nature's music, relaxing.
But such a beautiful place could not be taken.
The night feline monster subconsciously licked her little hand.
She was going towards the west.
Anyway, she couldn't leave this city.
Once she left this city, she had to return to the elf forest.
Because only the magical beasts there could fill her belly every day.
Next was the human city.
But the nearest city was the place she was currently at.
This was also the reason why she didn't want to leave.
Once she had left this place, those people would definitely come looking for her.
If she stayed in a human city, they would rather not.
San Lorenzo was actually her protective umbrella.
Right now, she was at the easternmost part of the city.
If she were to change her location, she would have to go to a place far away from here; the westernmost part.
The way out might have been guarded by someone.
So there was only one way,
Breaking through.
The night feline's eyes were firm.
At the same time, her heart was filled with confidence in her speed.
She believed that in this world, other than those who belonged to the night feline monster clan like her, there was absolutely no one who was faster than her.
She was very confident!
Crack!
At that moment, the sound of a tree branch being crushed suddenly rang in her ear.
The night feline monster's hair stood on end, as if it was burnt.
She could not help but let out an animal-like growl,
Which was as if it came from the depths of her throat.
Although the sound was very soft, Monn and the others still heard the beast-like sound.

Ace instantly pulled out the Holy Sword at her waist and prepared for battle.
Monn narrowed his eyes.
He looked at the place where the sound came from.
"It's on the tree."
Monn's said softly.
Ace's eyes locked onto him. The next moment, a purple figure quickly came out.
Clang!
The sound of metal colliding was heard.
Ace and the purple figure retreated at the same time.
Ace's eyes focused. She didn't expect the night feline monster's claws to be so hard.
The night feline monster was also shocked.
Although she had only wanted to defend against this human, she didn't have much strength.
No matter what, she had the strength of Intermediate-Level Holy Rank.
But this woman was able to block her claws so easily.
This was something she didn't expect.
In addition, the man who had been standing behind her seemed to be observing her every move.
It gave her a sense of danger.
Monn didn't attack immediately.
He carefully observed the night feline monster first.
Just as Ace said, it wasn't a monster.
Just by removing the two cat ears on her head and the swinging tail behind her, she looked like a normal human.
This made Monn very interested in the races of this world.
Should he look at a collection of alien races one day?
Of course, this was just a random thought.
Another reason was that Monn could feel that Ace's fighting spirit was very strong.
It just so happened that Ace had a breakthrough after eating the Holy Maiden Fruit, so they were fighting with equal strength.
It was right to just battle with the night feline monster.
Monn was not in a hurry to go up and subdue her.
Of course, he still had to have some tricks up his sleeve.
Otherwise, with the night feline monster's speed, if she were to focus on escaping, no one would be able to catch up to her.

Looking at the two beautiful figures intersecting with each other,
Monn silently condensed a white crystal in his hand.
It was the exact space coordinates that Monn needed for his spacewalk.
If the night feline monster tried to escape, Monn could just throw the white crystal over.
This was a move that he had thought of after seeing an anime in his previous life.
Monn tried it out on a whim, and it worked pretty well.
So Monn recorded this method in his spell library.
It was the right time to use it.
It could prevent extremely fast people from running away.
Monn had already thought of this problem.
No matter how strong he was,
There were still some things that he was not good at.
Especially in terms of speed, Monn did not have any spells to aid him in this area.
Only a spacewalk could be considered a movement spell.
But without space coordinates, Monn could not go anywhere.
That was why he thought of this method.
Just as Monn was thinking, there was a sudden pull behind him.
Monn turned his head to look.
It was Heidi and Asher who seemed to have been so frightened by something that they clutched Monn's clothes tightly.
Seeing this, Monn was speechless.
Sure enough, this was the problem he had been worried about.
Not only would these two women not help him in any way, but they would even delay the success of Monn's mission.
This was the reason why Monn didn't want to bring the two of them.
They were truly useless and would only delay his progress.
At this moment, the sound of a golden spear came from the front.
The two girls were scared stiff.
Ace and the night feline monster separated again.
The two of them were leisurely panting.
But it seemed that neither of them had admitted defeat.
They looked at each other with determined eyes.
The night feline monster sighed. This woman had indeed exceeded her expectations.
I never thought that a Holy Rank powerhouse would be able to fight me so well.
She snapped out of her daydream at the time. Her pair of cat eyes looked at the man standing quietly behind the woman.
Before this man made a move, she was already entangled by this woman.
If that man joined the battle, wouldn't she be unable to escape?
Absolutely not!
Instead of being caught by those guys outside, she would end up in the hands of a human?
This was not the way she wanted it to go down!
After thinking it through, the night feline monster was no longer entangled with this woman.
At first, she had only wanted to defend herself from her so that she could have an exit to escape.
But now, since she got hurt.
She had to try it with this woman.
But now it was different.
Her goal was to escape.
It wasn't to prove anything.
Especially with that man here, she couldn't stay any longer.
After thinking it through, the night feline monster showed a fierce look, as if she was about to attack Monn and the others.
As expected, Ace had a serious look on her face. She thought that the night feline monster was about to unleash something powerful.
However, just as Ace was about to face it head-on, the night feline monster suddenly turned around and leapt into the sky.

Steps of the Immortal Tree
Evan stood on a hill, staring calmly at the gate of his former clan. A crowd waited behind him, some eyeing the clan in an unresigned manner, others looking at their spiritual support. Some of the young children shivered at the gnawing cold. Wind howled in his ears, seemingly deploring his fate. A silvery cloud drifted over the mountains surrounding the compound. The roar of a river could be heard from underneath its frozen surface. He had reincarnated many years ago. Hailed as a prodigy from his youngest age, Evan had seemingly tread on a path to invincibility. He had gotten married with his childhood sweetheart and had cultivated with a group of friends, forming a considerable power of his own. Yet now, here he was, devoid of any path to move forward, with his energy locus destroyed. His wife was dead and his branch had been kicked out of the clan. He looked at his progeny that had been entrusted to him. The baby seemed content in his father’s strong arms, too young to understand anything but the warmth of the father’s beating heart. Signaling to the people behind him, he turned around and the procession gradually disappeared in the distance, as the sun gradually set and the stars acted as a guide. --- Author-san here.
