Reborn Into The Seven Deadly Sins World

One must say, five years are a lot of time, in five years a person can do a lot of things, so Leo did.

Finally arrived in the woods, Leo 'called' his 'underlngs' he succeeded to 'take'. Rats, squirrels, wolves, boars and even an eagle and a bear. Even though these are completely different animals of completely different races, there's one thing in common with each other, that is, the stench of rotting, the empty, lifeless, almost hypnotizing gaze of all these animals,

In fact, all of them are puppets, complete slaves that leo has 'created' by suċkɨnġ the blood to all these animals, it took almost 2 years to enslave them, because of their fantastic smell, or animal instincts, they could sense Leo from afar, thus attacking him or running away.

Once Leo had been bitten by a wolf, it took half a day to regenerate the almost deadly wound, and after that day, he began to understand that he must never underestimate his opponents, no matter how pitful they loo-

"Mmhh? Someone is missing, more than half of you guys are gone? Also, what's with this smell of blood? This is different from animal's blood, it's the sweet tone of the human blood, and it's fresh...no, this is different even from the normal human's blood, it's full of vitality, perhaps a knight or something?'

'I must be careful, but I'm curious, in Edinburgh I can't use my ability because someone might notice, but here we are, in the woods...'

"Guys, let's go, you, big wolf, carry me and lend me to the smeel of blood, with your nose it wouldn't be too hard to find it, also all you guys follow me from behind but not too close, I don't want trouble."

As Leo approached, he could hear the noises of something hitting flesh and the sounds of a scream, a terrifying scream, one in which you know it's not because someone has found a spider that is screaming.

Arrived at the spot, he found a short but muscular middle-aged man, without an arm and a leg, a decent armor and a broken sword, sorrounded by his undead corpses and a LOT of blood.

"Who's here?" The man stood even without a leg, with the blood of his recently tore limbs and looked at the direction of Leo, his face of a maniac, almost overjoyed, not caring his wounds.

'Did he found me? Shit, I must run, this is beyond my power now, this man is not a knight, this is an apprentice holy knight! Shit!'

"YOho? A moster? I'm the apprentice holy knight, Bruse-Sama! KkkKkk-I'm here for the indication of undead in this Forest, I can see you are controlling them? I knew it! I knew it monsters exist in this world! I saw a fairy when I was young, nobody would believe me back then, they said races different from humans are just fairy tales! HAahahAhah-Koff-Koff!' The man spit a lot of blood and then started smiling like a kid with a new toy.

'This man is clearly at an unstable state of mind, maybe I can take him down, before my reincarnation I probably couldn't even kill a kitty, heh, it's funny how even my mentality is changed...'

"Monster! Bow before me, you pitful existence, before my TREMENDOUS magic power, [Jump]! It allows me to jump beyond human limits, here I goKk-kkk!"

*Swish!* *Boom*

The man suddenly disappeared from his spot and then...jumped rowards Leo, swinging his broken sword but missing him, due to the length of the broken blade, otherwise, his head would be an ice cream now.

"Kk-kkk-You!! I missed? Bastard! Don't make fun of me!!"

'Shit! I underestimated him! I must run, NOW!' "Eagle, RUUN!! UPP!!

When Leo first saw the man was an apprentice holy knight, he silently called all of his suburdinates to approach him fast.

When he jumped in the eagle's back, the big bird started flying the fastest it can.

"Are you running from me? Insolence!" In the crucial moment, Leo forgot about the man ability, jump, and instead of running away, he told the eagle to fly upwards.

*Ton* the man, Bruse, created a small crater when jumping and appeared before Leo, caugh on him with a bear hug and started falling from the sky.

"Aahhnhnn!!! It HURTS!!! Free mee!! AaHhn!" Leo screamed from the immense pain.

"K-akk my back must be broken, but I'm gonna take you with meeh ahahahKaka-Cough Cough!"

'...I'm gonna die here? Is this my fate? NO! I promised Mary and the old man I will be alright! I.WILL.NOT.DIE!'

Silently, an unknown, dark power, began to arise in his body.
