Looking at the black-coloured eagle in front of him, Leo's thoughts about the snakelings become clear.
"Now, tell me why are you holding my egg?"
After replying to Leo's question, the eagle that transformed into a snake asked Leo with its piercing gaze on him.
Unlike the other beasts that Leo encountered so far, this creature was able to speak in perfect human speech.
Of course, Leo had seen so many speaking beasts before entering Eldoria; however, it was the first speaking beast in Eldoria.
"I have an ability to instantly hatch the eggs and even make sure those hatchlings would be at least one grade higher than their parents."
Leo felt a sense of danger from Father Snake as he hurriedly explained his ability and then looked at Mother Snake to back his words.
Even though the beasts in the Beast Sanctuary should not attack the beast tamers that enter to pick their contracted beasts unless the beast tamers attack first.
However, Leo felt that those rules were not applied to the beast in front of him.
"Hiss~"
From the side, Mother Snake hurriedly nodded and hissed at Father Snake to let him know that Leo was speaking the truth.
'Swoosh'
At the same time, she pushed the two snakelings towards the Father Snake and hissed as though it was explaining everything that happened.
'...'
On the other hand, Leo didn't understand what Mother Snake was saying as he stood there without moving from his place.
'Just show me the name, level and strength of this beast that could transform between a snake and an eagle. Also, some brief information on its species.'
Since he had nothing better to do, Leo decided to check out some information about Father Snake.
[Quasi Divine Knowledge]
….
Beast Name: Shadowmorph (High-level).
Strength: Level 10 Purple Grade.
Basic Information: The Shadowmorph is a creature born from the realm of shadows, granting it the ability to transform into a living shadow. It can stretch and contort its form, merging with darkness and slipping through the tiniest gaps. Its transformations give it an advantage in stealth and surprise attacks.
….
Soon, the brief information about Father Snake appeared in Leo's head, giving another shock to Leo.
'It is a peak Purple Grade Beast? No wonder it can speak.'
Among all the beasts he had seen so far in this world, this was the most powerful beast.
In this world, the strength of a beast is classified into five grades: Bronze, Silver, Gold, Purple and Diamond. And, each grade is further classified into 10 levels.
Right now, the beast in front of Leo was only one step away from the fifth grade which was assumed to be the top grade in Eldoria.
'So, this beast can transform into other living beasts. I was still wondering how it worked between a Snake and an Eagle since they were assumed to be arch enemies.'
Finally, another doubt got cleared in Leo's head.
"What? T-they are….Earth-Level?"
Suddenly, Father Snake shouted out in surprise, making Leo come out of his thoughts.
With a single look, Father Snake could tell what level his newly hatched snakelings were and was thoroughly shocked just like how Leo was shocked earlier.
"Yes, they are Earth-level and these snakelings were called Abyssal Leviathan, an ancient legendary water-type snake."
Just a few moments back, Leo also had a similar reaction when he checked the information on the snakelings. So, he could relate with Father Snake and explained all the information he gained from [Quasi Divine Knowledge].
"An Ancient Legendary Beast? And my two snakelings are legendary beasts from ancient times?"
Father Snake was already happy when he realized the level and strength of his two children and after learning they could become very powerful in the future, he was over the moon.
"What about that egg? Can you help it also become an Earth-level beast just like these two?"
Looking at the two snakelings that had already started playing with his tail despite not showing fear, Father Snake was happy as he asked Leo about the third egg.
No matter how good he was at suppressing his beast aura, some tiny wisps of his aura would be still leaking out of his body which was suffocating even the low-level Gold Grade Beasts
However, his newly born children were easily able to endure those wisps of his aura and played with his tail.
So, of course, he was happy.
Moreover, unlike the mother, as a father, he cared about the level and strength of his children.
He knew that without strength, it would be harder for his children to survive in this world once they leave the Beast Sanctuary.
On the other hand, Leo noticed that his first contracted beast was unconsciously shaking with fear from the moment the Shadowmorph had landed on the ground in its eagle form.
'It must be because of the aura that Shadowmorph had released earlier.'
Even Leo felt like he was dying earlier. So, Leo assumed that the Moon Hound Puppy was still afraid of the Shadowmorph.
"It's alright! Don't worry. I will make you more powerful than him in the future."
Leo didn't answer Father Snake's question; instead, he picked up the Moon Hound Puppy into his arms and tried to help it shake off its fear towards the Shadowmorph.
'Boww'
'Boow'
However, the puppy became even more afraid when Leo picked it up and hurriedly jumped out of his arms and ran away in the direction of its mother.
'It is so unlike itself after witnessing the Shadowmorph.'
Earlier, it even barked at the Black Water Snake which was a level 6 Gold Grade Beast that tried to attack Leo without showing any hesitation; however, it was still afraid of the Shadowmorph even when it was not showing any bestial nature.
Thinking of this, Leo is confused.
"Don't worry. It was just scared of me and ran to its mother."
Seeing the confused look on Leo's face, Shadowmorph explained with a pained look on his face, "Sigh…it seems as a father, I was quite harsh on it when it was born."
"Father?"
