Chapter 18 - Eagle Child.

"Shit, why now?" Virgo can only gulp with an almost stiff body.

When compared to the winged leopard, the aura of the giant red snake was more terrifying and seemed to contain the illusion of death.

"Arrrgh".

Just as Virgo was thinking of running away, the leopard's voice could be heard clearly behind him, he turned his head spontaneously, and the leopard did the same.

"It's over, I really will become the food of these giant beasts". Virgo muttered weakly, in front of him was a giant red snake then behind him was a winged leopard.

"Wussst".

The giant red snake immediately attacked Virgo quickly regardless of the winged leopard that was there, its attack was very strong and fast.

Luckily Virgo was still able to dodge, and the ground where Virgo was standing before immediately left a one-meter deep hole, Virgo could only sigh with his back already drenched in sweat from fear, if he was a little late the giant red snake's attack would instantly destroy him.

Seeing its prey being attacked by another beast, the leopard suddenly roared and jumped at the giant red snake that was already preparing to attack Virgo.

"Bamm...Bamm".

Now the two giant beasts were fighting fiercely making the ground begin to shake violently, the same thing happened to the giant eagle and the other red snake.

Virgo was dumbfounded and he knew very well how terrible the battle of the giant beasts was, but it gave him an opportunity, he quickly retreated tens of meters and hid behind a tree while watching the fight of the giant beasts.

About 1 hour later the result of the battle was determined, the 2 giant red snakes had died while the golden lightning eagle was dying from being bitten by its opponent's poison, while the giant leopard was still able to move and just walk away.

Virgo could tell that even if the winged leopard didn't look like he was dying, he would soon die from the many wounds on his body, and he couldn't even fly.

After making sure that everything ended Virgo could calm down, then he immediately approached the giant red snake that had died, hoping to get something useful from his body.

"Hmm, the horns would be very useful but unfortunately I don't have anything to cut them, even if using a spear or stone it would take a long time," Virgo thought with a weak sigh.

He looked back up at the cliff and saw a golden lightning eagle that was dying while trying to protect its nest, seeing that Virgo narrowed his eyes hoping there was something special about the eagle.

But after pondering for a while, he didn't want to cause trouble and decided to leave.

"Oaaax... Oaaack".

A shrill voice suddenly sounded near the giant lightning eagle, Virgo was silent for a moment and looked back at it.

"Is it possible?"

Virgo thought quickly, without thinking he jumped up the cliff wall to head towards the giant eagle, after arriving there the giant lightning eagle was dead, and he also understood what really happened.

In front of him, he saw 4 golden lightning eagle chicks in a half-meter wide nest, but unfortunately, only 1 survived, the other 3 only half the body left.

Virgo also fully understood the voice that was heard earlier was the child's voice of the surviving golden lightning eagle.

The golden lightning eagle cub screamed when it saw Virgo, it flapped its newly grown wings and couldn't leave the nest let alone fly, Virgo was very sure the eagle cub would die because it couldn't get any more food.

"Never mind, I better not have to think about anything else and focus on my journey". Murmured Virgo who immediately walked away.

But the giant eagle cub continued to scream as if it was very sad because it had lost its mother and brother, Virgo who heard that could only sigh and feel unbearable.

He finally came back and stared intently at the golden lightning eagle cub who kept shouting at him, "Hmm, okay fine, I'll take you with me". Virgo said who seemed to understand the meaning of the eagle child.

The eagle cub looks cute, but the reason Virgo wants to take him is pure because he wants to save him, of course, he understands how painful it is to lose a parent because it has happened to him too.

The golden lightning eagle cub was about the size of a normal adult eagle, and Virgo would not have been surprised to have gotten used to the giant beast, so he put it on his shoulder.

What made him a little surprised was that the falcon cub had the same lightning effect as the color of his newly grown feathers, at the same time Virgo also felt compatibility with the eagle cub.

Virgo realized that if it was someone else holding the eagle's cub, it might be injured because the effect of the lightning it gave off was very strong, but because Virgo also has the power of lightning so he is not affected in the slightest, and quite the opposite.

Besides that, the golden lightning eagle child seems to feel the same way, he is very docile as if he thinks Virgo is his new parent.

During the trip Virgo caught some normal size wild animals to feed their pet birds.

"He has a high appetite, he didn't even spare a bit of the food I gave him, are all giant beasts like this?" Virgo thought as he looked at the eagle chicks eating voraciously.

"Looks like I have to give him a name too? Hmm, what do you think would be appropriate?". Virgo sighed as he thought hard to find a name for the falcon in front of him.

"Golden lightning? Aiden, yes Aiden! How? Do you like it?". Virgo asked excitedly.

"Oaaax... Oaaack".

The golden bird screamed between likes and dislikes, "You like it? Well, I've decided from now on your name is Aiden, we will always be together and I will take care of you to the best of my ability, yeah... Even though I don't have much," Virgo said nodded confidently and happily.

They continued their journey until the sun began to set, now Virgo has managed to get through the mysterious canyon with difficulty, that's because the canyon is filled with giant beasts and now he has arrived at the foot of a towering mountain that is quite high.

Virgo looked at the mountain sharply, even though it was evening he still decided to climb the mountain and intended to rest at the top.

But Aiden on his shoulder screamed as if he didn't want to climb the mountain, "Aiden, calm down, we'll be fine". Virgo said to his pet bird.

He immediately continued his journey up the mountain quickly, about 5 hours of climbing so that they made it to the top at midnight.

Virgo saw a large crater that formed a lake at the top of the mountain, then in the middle of the lake there was a small hill with thick smoke seen very clearly, the moonlight enhanced the beauty of the mountain peak.
