SWNOVELXO Chapter 347: You Were Not Expecting This.
Deep within the heart of the Beast King Middle Region, a pride of lions lay resting after a successful hunt, their tranquillity shattered by the thunderous roar of their leader.
The favourite lioness laying gazed up at him from her position on a massive rock, her eyes meeting his as he stood above, peering into the distance, as if searching for answers within the secrets of the land.
She slowly made her way towards him, her graceful movements betraying her concern.
"What troubles you, my king?" the lioness asked, her voice filled with curiosity and admiration as she took a moment to appreciate the beauty of the leader lion's beautiful and flowing white mane.
He turned to face her, his gaze ice cold, a rarity for a leader who possessed the magnificent coat of a white lion, he is a breed both scarce and revered among the lion prides of the middle region.
"Notify the rest of the cubs and hunting lionesses to exercise caution during their next hunt, The hyenas may be plotting an attack,"
The white lion leader commanded, his voice low and resonant, infusing those who listened with a soothing yet vigilant energy.
"The hyenas?!" his favourite lioness exclaimed, her surprise evident.
"Those conniving creatures are no match for us, They have grown feeble since their last queen perished, and under Scar's leadership, we have ensured they dare not trespass into our hunting grounds, Why should we be concerned about such weak opponents?, If you give the word, even your sons would eagerly lead their teams to hunt them down."
The lioness expressed her disdain for the hyenas with undisguised scorn.
"Appearances can be deceiving, While we may possess greater strength on average, the hyenas still outnumber us, The only thing they lack is a worthy leader," the white lion leader explained.
"And, my dear, I have felt a strange surge in power emanating from the lower region of the Beast Forest. It seems a new Tier 4 Hyena Demonic Beast is about to enter our middle region ,"
He continued, but his favourite lioness interjected with determination in her voice.

"So what? Let a new challenger arrive, We lions are not cowards. Even if the hyenas have five of their offspring in the lower region breakthrough at the same time, we will not cower, We shall prevail!"
"In the unlikely event of a sudden breakthrough, we remain more than capable of eliminating any threat,"
The white lion leader shook his head at his favourite lioness fast forward attitude again, and he pushed her towards the ground and mounts her from behind
" You should listen to me more often, you would watch out for the hyenas because I said so, this new Hyena could be dangerous if not cut off do you get me! "
The lion leader asked as he thrust into her from behind while gently biting the lioness in the neck region, she could only yelp and nod her head in response as he kept on thrusting into her on the stand
As all the other lions peeked at there leader violating the leading lioness in front of every one, the female lioness were all arouse and shy
While some of the male lions look with envy, the rest just wish one day they would be able to own there own pride and mate with any lioness of there choice.

In another part of the Beast King forest, a red-furred Demonic Beast leopard could be seen, his gaze fixated on the lower regions.
His face contorted into a frown as he sensed a rising aura in the air, However, he quickly composed himself and returned to his meal, trying to ignore the sensation that had just washed over him.
Curiosity got the better of another leopard that had been observing him
"What is it?" the second leopard asked, intrigued by the Red-Furred Leopard's reaction.
"It's trouble," the Red-furred leopard replied, his voice filled with unease, He turned away, leaving the remains of his prey for the other leopard to scavenge.
As he glanced back at the second leopard, he shook his head in disappointment.
"I've told you before, stop following me, We are solitary demonic beast by nature, but sometimes I still doubt if you truly belong to the demonic leopard bloodline,"
He remarked, his voice tinged with frustration, With those words, he vanished into the thick underbrush, leaving the second leopard behind.

Meanwhile, a similar phenomenon was occurring throughout the middle region of the Beast King forest, capturing the attention of various demonic beast groups that were enemies of the Hyena Packs.
They all directed their gaze towards the lower region, sensing the Hyena Matriarch's breakthrough into the Mid Rank Realms.
And there was only two reasons why they were so interested and one was because It was common knowledge that the Hyenas had offended many demonic beast groups and rogue demonic beasts.
They would often steal kills, prey, and even provoke unnecessary conflicts due to their numerical advantage.
As a result, they had amassed a long list of enemies who were always alert to anything involving the Hyenas.
So, when these enemies felt the aura of a Hyena breaking through into the Mid rank, they immediately turned their attention in that direction.
They were certain that another formidable mid-ranked Hyena was about to join the hyena packs of the middle region, further increasing their strength.
This was something that the other demonic beast groups and powerhouses wished to avoid at all costs.
The second reason they were so captivated by this energy was because of the sheer amount of power the new Tier 4 hyena seemed to possess, although they couldn't be entirely certain.
This combination of factors intensified their interest in the unfolding situation, keeping them on alert and ready to act.
They were just certain it would spell trouble, if such an Hyena survived The amount of energy it emitted surpassed that of a typical Tier 4 demonic beast.
In fact, the energy radiating from it rivalled that of a high-tier Tier 4 lifeform, a level of that type of power after a breakthrough that could make the Matriarch being considered as a once-in-a-millennium genius.
While the other demonic beasts who had conflicts with the Hyenas observed the situation with concern, the Savannah Hyena pack revelled in the outcome.
Scar, the leader of the hyenas, a spotted hyena with a scar across his left eye, emerged from his resting cave with deliberate strides.
His large body and deep tawny fur hinted at the immense strength he sought to conceal.
Releasing his Tier 5 aura to its fullest extent, Scar surveyed the outer region with a sense of triumph before bursting into an uncontrollable laugh, with the rest of the pack joined him, their joy echoing through the air.
"Send the hunters to retrieve our newly breakthrough member. We must ensure the safety of this hyena," Scar declared, his voice tinged with authority, before retreating back into the cave.
Scar led the savannah pack in the middle region of the Beast King forest after the death of the last Hyena's last female leader, and his position as a male hyena leader spoke volumes about the challenges he had overcome to gain such respect.
His strength compelled the typically arrogant female hyenas to bow to him instead of attempting to overthrow him, as he had protected them against all other demonic beast with his intellectual knowledge despite just being a Tier 5 Hyena .
Now, his priority was to escort this exceptional hyena back safely to their rightful place before other demonic beasts decided to make a move on the newcomers hoping to kill.
