The next day, after saying goodbye to everyone, Leon embarked on a journey alone.
However, Leon forgot one important thing.
He was a person with no sense of direction who could not even tell which way was north.
Half a month later, Leon looked at the familiar markings in front of him and gave a bitter smile.
“How many times have I returned to this place now?” [“It seems to be the fifth time, Leon.
When will you ever find the way?”] “Soon, soon.
I have a feeling we will be out of this damn forest immediately.” Even as he said it, not even Leon believed it himself.
[“I’m getting sick of eating roasted meat.
Let’s get out of here quickly.”] “I’ve been sick of it for a long time, but there is no help for it.
I cannot even find a single vegetable in this forest.” Just like that, after another week, Leon finally escaped from the forest.
He did not walk out on his own.
He was brought out by someone else.
One only had to look at the Black Bulls uniform Leon was wearing to know who it was.
That was right.
It was none other than the captain of the Black Bulls, Yami Sukehiro, who brought him out.
Speaking of this, Leon could not help but get angry.
When Yami learned about Leon’s situation at the time, he only gave him two choices.
“Option one, join the Black Bulls and then I will take you out.
Option two, do not join and you can continue to fend for yourself here.” Although there were two options, in Leon’s eyes there was only the choice to join the Black Bulls.
If he had been able to walk out on his own, he would not have spent more than half a month in this forest.
Finally, under Yami’s leadership, Leon successfully arrived at the Black Bulls’ hideout.
Upon arriving at the hideout, although Leon had long known that the Black Bulls were full of problem children, experiencing it firsthand still gave him a headache.
Just after entering the hideout, he was asked by the battle-hungry Luck if he wanted to fight.
Knowing Luck’s personality, Leon naturally refused without hesitation.
Then he was asked by Vanessa, who was wearing revealing clothes, if he wanted to have a drink together.
Knowing that Vanessa had a bottomless capacity for alcohol, Leon flatly refused.
There was also Charmy Pappitson, who kept feeding him, the troublemaker Magna Swing, the super narcissistic Finral Roulacase, Gauche Adlai who was showing off his sister, and Gordon Agrippa who spoke with an incredibly quiet voice.
At the first sight of Gordon, Leon desperately wanted to ask him to teach Asta how to lower his volume.
Although Leon felt this was impossible.
After all, the Roaring Emperor was the Roaring Emperor.
However, there were still two people in the Black Bulls he was interested in.
One was Charmy Pappitson, and the other was Grey.
The former was because Erha wanted to taste Charmy’s food, and the latter was because Leon was very curious about Grey’s magic.
Just like that, half a month passed.
With the hundreds of recipes from Leon’s past life, he soon reached a consensus with Charmy.
But the situation with Grey became a bit complicated.
At first he tried to approach Grey with various excuses, but under Grey’s hulking appearance he still got cold feet.
After all, he could not just expose Grey’s disguise.
If he were to say directly that Grey’s current appearance was fake and that her real self was an extremely cute girl, not to mention anything else, if he had not read the original work even he himself would not believe that Grey’s true form was a super cute and shy girl.
So in the end he just had to take it one step at a time.
Finally, after another half a month of effort, Leon successfully gained over ten pounds.
If you ask how he gained weight, it was of course through Charmy’s constant daily feeding and Erha’s urging.
As for Charmy and Erha, the former gained the joy of cooking and the latter gained the joy of gourmet food.
Only Leon, who was stuck in the middle, became like a tool.
Because he could not accept a decadent weight-gaining life, Leon casually accepted a mission and fled the Black Bulls’ hideout.
However, he forgot one very important thing.
“I remember it was right here on the map.
Why haven’t I seen the mission target yet?” [“Leon is a fool!
A fool who can get lost while flying in the sky!”] Leon, who was constantly checking the map, did not refute Erha after hearing these words.
Because he was indeed lost.
Previously he thought that as long as he was not in a forest he would not get lost, so he directly used Metal Creation Magic to build a mana-driven flying device, the same kind as the Green Goblin’s.
But what he never expected was that this sense of direction effect was actually conceptual.
That is to say, no matter where he was or by what means, he could not reach his destination on his own.
Perhaps this was the price of being a natural-born devil.
While being granted devil powers, he was also granted the trait of having no sense of direction.
Just like that, Leon had to change his destination from the mission location to the nearest village.
Then from the nearest village he changed it to a place with signs of human activity.
Finally he changed the target to just finding anyone at all.
As a result, after Leon drifted around, he actually saw a somewhat dilapidated wooden cabin in the forest.
However, the moment he saw the wooden cabin, tears of excitement streamed from Leon’s eyes.
“I finally found it!” Leon maneuvered the flying device to plummet rapidly toward the wooden cabin as he shouted excitedly.
At this moment, the person training with a sword beside the cabin could not help but look up at the sky upon hearing Leon’s voice.
Then he saw a flying device falling rapidly.
“Eh?
Eh!!!” “Thud!” After landing steadily, Leon looked around curiously.
“I seemed to hear someone’s voice just now.
Why is it gone after I came down?” After jumping off the flying device, Leon dispelled the magic maintaining it.
Just like that, because it lacked Leon’s magic support, the flying device gradually disappeared on the spot.
At the same time, it revealed the figure of the person who had been crushed underneath.
The instant he saw someone, Leon’s eyes widened and several thoughts flashed through his mind.
“No wonder I only heard a voice earlier but did not see anyone.
They were actually crushed into the ground by my landing.
Should I just bury him like this?” Just as Leon was thinking about whether to destroy the evidence, the person whose half-body was embedded in the ground moved their fingers slightly.
Then, using force with both hands, they suddenly lifted their head.
“Ah!
I almost thought I was going to die!” Leon, who had already decided on a burial, instantly turned back to look when he heard this familiar roaring voice.
“Holy crap, Asta??”
