1701. Chance
The sudden event shocked the trio. Noah and the others were returning to their army, but a rank 9 magical beast had flown relatively near them.
The lion didn't move, but the team's instincts only felt danger at that sight. The creature had yet to awake, but the trio couldn't understand how injured it was.
Noah, the Foolery, and Wilfred were hybrids. Having rank 9 materials in their reach was the greatest temptation of their life. The lion's condition also seemed quite awful, so they wouldn't get another chance to obtain such a powerful body anytime soon.
Still, the three hybrids weren't stupid. They knew how dangerous magical beasts could be, especially when it came to one in the ninth rank. Even their joint efforts might not allow them to defeat the injured creature. Actually, their instincts were telling them that they had no chance to win.
