"We're here!" (Leo)

Leo said with excitement.

"Hoho. So this is your village." It's kinda poor, isn't it?" (Yue Feng)

"Well, we really are poor. Anyways, you two. Stay here first, if the villagers see you, I'm sure everyone will panic." (Leo)

After Leo instructed the two magical beasts, he walked towards the village with Yue Feng.

When they approached the village. He noticed his father, Ark, and other villagers gathered in the entrance. They were fully equipped.

On the side, he could see his mother and the other villagers with a worried look. He could see some children around his current age too.

When Leo and Yue Feng got near the entrance, Ark naturally noticed them.

When Leo and Ark met each other's eyes. Ark suddenly rushed towards Leo to slap him.

[Eh? Slap me?! Why?!]

Slap!

Couldn't understand why his father wants to slap him. He failed to react and got slapped by Ark.

"Eh?" (Leo)

"Where the hell have you been!" (Ark)

Leo could see how angry Ark was because he literally had a vein bulging on his head.

Still confused, Leo answered.

"Evil... Forest?" (Leo)

Ark, then gripped Leo's shoulders and shouted at him.

[Why the hell I'm always being gripped in my shoulder! Is there something wrong with my shoulders?!]

"Don't you know how dangerous the Evil Forest is?! Especially at night?! You fucking stay there for 3 days!" (Ark)

Leo couldn't reply to Ark because he knew he was wrong this time, and made his family worried.

At this time, Nelia and the others arrive.

Nelia rushed to Leo and hugged him tight while asking a barrage of questions.

"Leo! Are you okay?! Where have you been?!" (Nelia)

Leo looked at his parents, and to the other villagers who had relief on their faces seeing him safe and sound. Then he apologized.

"I'm okay, mother. Everyone, I'm sorry for making you worry." (Leo)

"You better give a good explanation why you go to the evil forest without coming home!" (Ark)

Ark was still obviously angry at Leo. While Nelia was just happy to see her son after 3 days.

The children around Leo's age too, approached him and asked him a barrage of questions.

Suddenly the village chief, who's just standing in the side, steps forward and asks Leo with a beautiful smile.

"Before that Ark. It seems Leo has a visitor. Won't you introduce us first to this handsome guy, Leo?" (Village chief)

""....."" (Leo, Ark, Nelia, and Villagers)

When everyone saw the Village Chief putting her best smile and acting like a maiden, they couldn't help but stop. They look at the Village Chief dumbfounded.

As for Yue Feng, he just looked at the Village Chief. Doing nothing.

"Leo?" (Village Chief)

Hearing the Village Chief calling him again. Leo managed to snap out of reality.

"Eh?! Ah! I-its! Ah, everyone! This old man, uh, mister. This man is Yue Feng. Well, he is my teacher now. I met him inside of the evil forest!" (Leo)

"Hoho. Hello everyone. I am Yue Feng." (Yue Feng)

""Eh?! Teacher?!"" (Nelia, Ark, Everyone)

Everyone looked at Leo and Yue Feng. Then they turned their gaze from Yue Feng, to the Village Chief who was still blushing, and back to Yue Feng.

"Alright alright. Let's go back inside first. Let's not let our visitor stand outside the village." (Village Chief)

The Village Chief instructed all of them, then turned around to give a wink to Yue Feng.

""Eh?"" (Leo, Nelia, Ark, Everyone)

As for Yue Feng? He's just standing there, looking at the Village Chief with curiosity.

[What's wrong with this old man?! Can't he feel the dangerous aura the village chief's releasing??]

"Ah. Before that. Teacher has 2 pets waiting inside the forest. I'm going to call them but please. Don't attack them or run in panic." (Leo)

Leo suddenly whistled. Then everyone saw something incredible. Two beasts run toward them while dragging many magical beasts corpses.

They couldn't process what was happening and they couldn't move because of fear.

[I thought so.]

----

Leos' house.

Leo and Yue Feng explained why Leo didn't come back home for 3 days. But of course, they just made up a story.

"So that's what happened." (Ark)

"Yes. I just sheltered him in the rain and it's already dark at that time. But the reason he couldn't come home is my fault. So please don't blame your son. I'm the one who insisted him to become my disciple and teach him what I know." (Yue Feng)

Ark looked at Leo at his side then flicked his head, enough to hurt Leo.

"But you're still in the wrong. I Know you can hunt now but didn't I tell you to be mindful of the time? Inside the forest, you can't even see the sky because of those freaking big trees." (Ark)

"I'm sorry father." (Leo)

Leo apologized again.

"Hey, handsome. Why did you want Leo as a disciple?" (Village Chief)

The Village Chief suddenly interjected and asked Yue Feng.

[Fuck! What the hell?! The Village Chief is aggressive!]

"Hoho. It's just, I'm already dying you know. And I don't even have children to pass down my arts. But the main reason is I saw Leo's potential!" (Yue Feng)

"But old man. Are you sure you could teach my son? Besides, I'm already good enough to teach my son!" (Ark)

Slap!

Nelia slapped Ark's head.

"As if you could tame dangerous two huge magical beasts and kill many of them! If you can, then go! Don't come back here until you tame one!" (Nelia)

"Ow! I'm just kidding! It's just a joke my love! Mister old man! I'll leave my son to you!" (Ark)

"Ahem. Hey, handsome. Can I have a request for you?" (Village Chief)

The Village Chief winked at Yue Feng.

Seeing the village chief winked at Yue Feng again. Ark and Leo got goosebumps. As for Nelia, she really supports the village chief for her love.

[Scary! This witch is in love!]

"Hoho. What is it, village chief? As long as I can do it. Then I'll do it." (Yue Feng)

"Hihi. It's not that much. But can I request you to teach the other children too in our village?" (Village Chief)

[Amazing. Even though she wants to hook up with the old man. She still prioritizes the village's future!]

"Hoho. That's no problem at all. In fact, I can teach all of you here if you want me too. As I can see, even Leo's father, Ark, is strong. It's not the same for the others, right? With my teachings, I can make everyone strong. But I can only teach you some basic techniques to improve your bodies. The only one who can receive my personal technique is my disciple." (Yue Feng)

"Hihi. You have my thanks. I think it's time for me to go. I still need to tell the others about the training. I hope you could visit my house as well, handsome." (Village Chief)

Village Chief winked again to Yue Feng before leaving.

"Father. I think it's not safe to stay here anymore." (Leo)

"You are right son. With the old hag acting like that? Maybe the end of the world is near? It's giving me goosebumps!" (Ark)

"Shut up you two! The Village Chief is just in love!" (Nelia)

"Yep. It's near. The end of the world." (Ark)

"Yep. I agree with that." (Leo)

"Hohoho. What an interesting family!" (Yue Feng)

"You act like this doesn't concern you, old man." (Leo)

"Isn't it fine? Maybe it's really time for me to settle down here, having the young maiden accompany me." (Yue Feng)

"""Young maiden?!""" (Leo, Ark, Nelia)

Leo, Ark, and even Nelia couldn't help but gasp on what they heard. Yue Feng called the village chief a young woman!

"Bluegh!" (Leo)

Leo wanted to vomit but couldn't.

"Leo! What's wrong with this old man!" (Ark)

Ark couldn't believe Yue Feng. He even wants to smash Yue Feng's head to wake him up.

"Yep. Elderly should be really old. Let's just not think about it." (Nelia)

Nelia just accepted Yue Feng as a very old guy.

"Hoho. That's right. I'm really, really old, you know? For me, the village chief is just a young woman. Hohoho!" (Yue Feng)

After hearing that, Leo's family including himself decided to ignore Yue Feng and talked to themselves.
