Suddenly Zeno's stomach immediately sounded indicating he was very hungry. Indeed, since this afternoon he had not touched any food at all. He also muttered by himself. "Damn, I haven't eaten at all."
But Kiba understood that his master was currently starving, he immediately ran towards the elemental beast forest. Kiba's strange behavior also makes Zeno confused, even though Zeno does not know what Kiba will do.
"Hoy Kiba stops, where are you going." Zeno ran after Kiba who entered the elemental beast forest, because Zeno also worried about Kiba if there was anything.
Moreover, in Zeno's mind, Kiba is a small and immature animal, so it will be more threatened when meeting animals larger than him.
But his thoughts were very wrong, he had been hiding from behind the bushes while looking at Kiba who was flying, even though it was late at night, but Kiba's movements were still very clear.
In front of Kiba, he was fighting an eagle which was also a wind elemental beast. Zeno was really surprised, Kiba who was a child was also able to fight fellow elemental beasts, even Kiba could also fly.
"So it's true what Dewi Luna said that Kiba's soul has matured." Mumbled Lirih Zeno while looking at Kiba's fight.
But before long, Kiba managed to kill the eagle, he then bit his neck and brought it back to Zeno's place. But Kiba was immediately excited when he saw Zeno who was watching him.
He also approached Zeno with the eagle, Zeno could only shake his head to see Kiba's behavior.
"Haha actually I'm very tired of meat, but I really appreciate you Kiba, you must really want the essence of elemental beast is not." Zeno.
Zeno then returned to the campfire place earlier followed by Kiba. Arriving there, Zeno also dissected the eagle using a katana that he often used to practice data with Fang Yoshi.
Actually Fang Yoshi had also given the katana to Zeno, even he also gave Zeno a sleeve to carry everywhere.
Until he found the white crystal-shaped element core right on the Eagle's head, Zeno then threw it to Kiba who was sitting waiting for his master to dissect the eagles.
Reflexing, Kiba instantly opened his mouth and caught the core of that element. Zeno instantly observed what happened when an elemental beast ate the core of the elemental beast.
But Kiba had only undergone a slight change, his body only grew bigger than before. Seeing that, Zeno smiled and went back to cooking the eagle, although he was very tired of meat, because for five years he only ate meat, but he appreciated it because it was a hunt from Kiba.
In addition to providing the elemental beast core, Zeno also gave a piece of eagle meat to Kiba. Since the beasts would also need a meal to satiate their stomachs, whereas the elemental beast core would only add strength instantly, and not fill their bellies.
Due to the satiety, Zeno began to sleep and leaned himself against a large enough tree, he also turned off the bonfire in front of him to prevent wild animals from coming here. Since he had only slept for the first time in an elemental beast forest, Zeno had greatly increased his vigilance. In addition, Zeno also asked Kiba to be on guard when there was something threatening
And in the end Zeno had fallen asleep, while Kiba, he too, fell asleep. But while asleep, Kiba still uses a very good sense of smell and hearing, so if there are signs of danger approaching, he can detect the enemy that is coming soon.
This really happened, while Kiba was still asleep, he could hear an approaching elemental Beast move. Instantly, Kiba woke up and immediately searched for the elemental beast using his sense of smell.
Until he actually found a snake rather large than himself. But Kiba did not hesitate one bit when faced with the snake.
"Hey little animal, I smell a human scent near here. So go and don't get in my way." Say the Snake.
Kiba growls when he finds out that the snake wants to prey on his master, Zeno. Although he was very small, but his canine teeth came out very sharp.
Fortunately Kiba managed to jump and dodge, so he was not exposed to the effects of the tail blows from the snake.
The blow was repeated several times by the snake, but Kiba only dodged and did not fight back in the least. This infuriated the Snake, and he created several fireballs around him.
Kiba was not the slightest bit frightened, even though he was the owner of the wind elemental, he did not care about the slightest fire. Even if he fought against the strongest fire elemental Beast in this forest, he might be able to kill it.
One by one fireballs were thrown at Kiba who was heading towards the Snake. But Kiba also managed to dodge very nimble over the attack of several fireballs.
When close to the snake beast, Kiba swung his hand like he was clawing, but what he clawed was not the Snake's body, but the empty space in front of him.
This made the Snake laugh, because he thought Kiba could not do anything. But it managed to silence the snake's mouth, because the snake felt pain after seeing Kiba clawing at a vacuum.
When Kiba landed on the ground, he looked at the area of the snake's body before him earlier, forming a scratch with a deep enough wound, so that the blood came out quite profusely.
The technique used by Kiba is the same as the technique possessed by Zeno, which is an invisible wind slash, but the difference is, Kiba does not use a sword slash, but a claw.
"Damn it, it seems I underestimated you too little animal." The serpent said with a soft laugh.
"It seems so, you underestimated me too much." Kiba let out his words.
The snake was shocked because an animal as small as Kiba could speak. Whereas normally elemental beasts would be able to speak when they were adults. In addition, Kiba's voice is also big as if that Kiba is really an adult.
"How is it possible, you're just an immature animal." The snake's eyes grew as if it still could not believe it.
"Why don't you believe it? Do I need to introduce myself?" Kiba.
"No need, because you're gonna be dead soon." The snake again threw its tail at Kiba.
"Basic." Mumbled Kiba while dodging the snake's tail blows again.
Blows repeatedly made the ground around him vibrate, making Kiba want to finish his game because he did not want to make his master wake up.
The gentle wind had blown towards the snake, but behind the softness, it was a very deadly wind. The wind when inhaled makes it weak for a while, even making someone who inhales it experience death, except for users.
Kiba immediately landed on the head of the snake which also began to weaken, the snake's consciousness also began to disappear due to breathing the wind.
"I am Byakko, but someone calls me Kiba." Kiba told the snake.
"Your majesty? Truly forgive me for not knowing that you are one of the guardians of the cardinal directions." The last words that came out of the snake's mouth, the snake then collapsed to the ground and exhaled.
