He arrived at the border during the afternoon and calmly waited on one of the branches of the trees for the night to come.
The Night panthers came out of their hideouts only during the night, as the name suggested.
They were fast beasts with the ability to become momentarily immaterial.
It wasn't exactly the strongest beast to choose when creating another blood companion but what piqued Noah's interest were their body parts.
Due to their innate ability to enter an ethereal state, their bones and skin were highly adaptable to multiple treatments.
They were the perfect material for Noah's needs at the moment.
'Well, darkness beasts are not so common in this environment, I can always change it for a stronger one later.'
As the night arrived, the fauna changed and the nocturnal beasts came out of their lairs.
Noah waited until he found what he was looking for.
Thirty or so black panthers three meters tall slowly came out of the terrain.
'To think that they actually sleep in the ground during the day, there are sure peculiarities in this world.'
The Night panthers used the hours under the daylight to sleep but they never chose a fixed spot to create a den, they directly turned in their immaterial form and immerged in the terrain.
'Blood drain should be enough, I also want to see if I manage to learn more about the strengthening process.'
He had trained in his new spells so he was quite sure of their actual power.
His mental energy was expended and both his hands morphed into demonic claws.
His wings spread in the night and he jumped from his branch to fly over the pack.
The panthers were moving fast, looking for some prey, they were completely unaware that they were hunted themselves.
'Only two peak rank 3, they really seem weak though.'
Noah shook his head internally and dove on the pack.
His two claws stuck one panther each and immediately drained them of the blood in their bodies.
Noah felt a wave of warmth coming from his hands and accumulating on his back, right below his acupoints.

The other panthers finally noticed the intruder and pounced at him but Noah simply flew back in the air to avoid the assault.
He dove again as soon as he found an opening in their formation but, when he was about to stab his claw on the beast, it became ethereal and his arm hit nothing but air.
'I need to take them by surprise or expend their "Breath"'
Noah flew again and dove in another part of the pack.
That time though, a small black cloud formed over the heads of two of them, momentarily blocking their vision.
'Blind!'
Since the panthers could not see when the attack would arrive, Noah could easily finish them off.
The battle continued for a few minutes with Noah expending almost no "Breath" or mental energy.
At some point, when only five specimens remained, the leader of the pack roared to make them retreat.
Looking at the panthers running away, Noah nodded in understanding.
'So, it's true that it takes a lot for them to sink in the ground, it's not something immediate.'
Black flames covered him and, when he exited them, he was right in front of the escaping creatures.
