By instinct, Edward's body forcefully and strangely twisted in midair before landing on the ground. His body rolled a couple of times on the gra.s.s, much like a hedgehog rolling down the mountain, before entering a small bush close to him which was only a few meters wide. He suddenly lifted his head and studied the blue sky. His eyes shrunk abruptly.

At this moment, there were five enormous eagle type Magical Beasts in the vast sky, slowly circling above. What caused Edward's expression to change slightly was the few human figures who were on the backs of the five flying Magical Beast.

"Dammit. It is really unexpected that the a.s.sa.s.sin actually had flying beasts at such a large scale!" Edward clenched his teeth and softly cursed. If it wasn't because of the great increase in his strength which also provided him with a lot more agility, he would really have received some injuries from the sneak attack earlier.
