However, the moment Leo steps his feet away from the mess that he had created, an explosion suddenly sounded behind him.

He quickly turned his head around to look back. Immediately after, he became shocked by the sudden appearance of a Heavy Armored Knight.

This Heavy Armored Knight wasn\'t with them before. No! To be exact, the Knight wasn\'t a part of those escorting soldiers, but one of the men of the Black Bees.

With a few swings from the Heavy Armored Knight\'s greatsword, he had swiftly eliminated all the Magical Beast around. After saving the five soldiers from their death, the Heavy Armored Knight suddenly stared in Leo\'s direction, full of killing intent in his eyes. Obviously, he had already noticed Leo\'s existence from the very beginning.

Being stared at by such a powerful Knight, Leo didn\'t panic at all. He just stood still on his spot while responding with a cold stare towards the Heavy Armored Knight\'s direction.

"Found you!" The Heavy Armored Knight silently murmured to himself before charging towards Leo\'s direction. Following behind him were the five soldiers.

Looking at them charging towards him, Leo didn\'t hesitate for any second as he quickly slips away from his place. Although he could fight the five soldiers from before, the Heavy Armored Knight was a totally different story.

After observing the Heavy Armored Knight, he was certain that the Knight was what they called as, Magical Knights.

At that time the Heavy Armored Knight arrived, Leo could see from his location the fiery flames along with the Knight\'s every slash to the Magical Beast. Base on his memory, only Magical Knights were capable of doing such a feat.

He had long heard before that it wasn\'t only Mages that were fighting on the battlefield of the War of Races, but also other types of warriors, such as the Magical Knight currently chasing after him.

Base on the information that he had learned about the Magical Knights, such Knights were unique. They are capable of manipulating Mana the same as the Mages, hence being able to execute powerful techniques and some sort of magic spells.

However, the Magical Knight could only be granted such power through the Mages that they had sworn loyalty. Moreover, Magical Knights, although not being a Mage, was actually much more powerful than Mages. The reason was simple, such types of Knights needed the nurturing of Mages to become stronger, so making them much more powerful than the Mages is a logical thing to do in order to better protect the Mages from any possible danger that they will encounter along their path.

Moreover, the most important thing about these unique Magical Knights is that the moment an ordinary Knight becomes a Magical Knight, all their attributes would also be enhanced beyond the ordinary. Not only could they execute a powerful technique and cast Magic spells, but they also have the strength akin to One Star Magical Beast or higher ranking Magical Beast, base on the Mage that they swore loyalty to.

That was the exact reason why Leo was frantically running back to their cave at this moment. After all, fighting the Magical Knight was a stupid thing to do, especially with his capability. Even with the use of his Earth Elementals, it would still be impossible to fight with the Magical Knight. He might have killed the One Star Magical Beast Sewer Lizard from before, but that was only because it was seriously injured at that time. The Lizard was close to death. Hence, it doesn\'t have any more energy to defend itself from any danger and was only waiting to die.

Also, Leo doesn\'t know the level of the Magical Knight chasing after him. So, it\'s indeed really stupid of him to think of fighting the Magical Knight.

While running, Leo purposely passed through the traps he had set up a while ago. Although, he was aware that it was next to impossible to kill the Magical Knight with the traps he had set, delaying the Magical Knight was still possible. Time was the most important thing right now for him.

Why?

The sooner he arrives at Cassandra and the others, the higher the chances they would be able to successfully escape.

Although he could just choose to run away from an opposite direction, hence leading the Magical Knight far from the others. But doing so was still of no use since he had already set up many traps within the diameter of 20 meters from their cave. The other soldiers would eventually find out about his arrangement, hence still being able to find the cave that Cassandra and the others were hiding.

Fortunately, the moment Leo arrived nearby the cave, Cassandra and the others were standing outside, obviously looking for him. While still being 10 or so meters away from the cave, Leo quickly sent out a warning towards them.

"All of you run away from this place, I\'ll distract these people chasing after me!" Leo exclaimed towards them before he turned towards the direction leading towards the deep part of the Yellow Forest.

Leo purposely didn\'t stop as he warned them. He was afraid that the Magical Knight chasing after him would realize that the others were nearby since he had stopped while sending out a warning. After all, from the very beginning their target was Veronica, so chasing after him would be useless the moment they found out about her whereabouts.

Hearing Leo\'s warning, Cassandra and the others didn\'t ask for any more questions as they quickly took another direction from Leo before those people that he had warned them about could spot them.

"Sir, the others are nearby!" The leader from before exclaimed.

"I know that, but what can we do?" The Magical Knight replied solemnly. Indeed, what could they possibly do even if they knew that the others are nearby? The person they are chasing might have yelled out in order to warn the others, but they didn\'t even see any silhouette!

"Spread out, sir!" The leader suggested.

"Stupid, you guys would just die if I allow you to spread out!" The Magical Knight quickly disagrees with the idea.

"But, sir..."

"Enough! Let\'s just catch him and ask him about where the others are going afterwards. No need to waste unnecessary lives!"

Just like what Leo had expected, the Magical Knight along with the five soldiers didn\'t notice Cassandra and the other\'s existence as they didn\'t change direction and still on kept on chasing after him.

"Pweh!" Leo can\'t help but to breathe a sigh of relief while running deeper into the Yellow Forest after knowing that his plan worked. It was really fortunate that the Magical Knight didn\'t see where Cassandra and the others were; he was sure that it would really be big trouble if ever they were found out.

While moving deeper to the Yellow Forest, Leo was also absorbing Wind Mana around his surrounding at the same time. Every time a Wind Elemental is formed in his consciousness, he will quickly summon it and order it to intercept the Magical Knights and the other\'s path.

Of course, Leo naturally didn\'t forget to turn his Wind Elemental into something like a Magical Beast to disguise their real form. Although he was in danger, keeping his ability a secret was still an important thing to do.

As time ticks on, with the help of the Wind Elemental that he had summoned along the way, Leo was finally able to successfully escape from the Magical Knight and his group\'s pursuit.

However, Leo had also realized that he was now currently facing a much bigger problem after finally being able to escape from those people. He was now situated in the inner part of the Yellow Forest, maybe around the dark green or red zone, one of most dangerous parts of the Yellow forest.

Moreover, while running away, he had also made plenty of twists and turns, so he had already forgotten where is the way to the outer part of the Yellow Forest.

"F*ck!" Leo can\'t help but curse inwardly. He doesn\'t dare to curse loudly since he was deep in the Yellow Forest. His voice might attract the attention of some One-Star Magical Beast. Such a thing would be really troublesome for him.

Looking around his surrounding, Leo tried to trace back his step. He was hoping that he might be able to find back his way using such a method.. Unfortunately though, with just dozens of steps, he then realized that he had just made his situation much worst.
