Leo used crunch and bit into the flesh before ripping it out and throwing it away. That last attack was a critical one, Percy could see the sudden drop in the zombie's health;
Legion Zombie, HP: 8,400/15,200
Leo had him half beat.
The half hellhound then bent back down into the neck opening it had made with it's last attack and bite into the monster's spine. Percy saw Leo shack his head trying to dig in deeper into the flesh. It then bite into the spine and ripped it out. Pulling the nerves out slowly, painfully.
"ARGH!" The zombie roared out in pain. But neither Percy nor Leo cared.
Legion Zombie, HP: 4,500/15,200
Percy opened Leo's status and there it was, the new skill that Leo was sure to have created due to that last attack;
Critical strike, Lv- 1 (3%)
A precise strike that cause 300% more damage to the target
Chance of success- (Luc+Dex)%
The Legion zombie then slowly got up and began shaking its body trying to throw off Leo. The dog jumped off and landed safely on the ground. However it wasn't done. Leo bent down low, and then jumped up as high as it could closing its jaws around the Legion zombie's neck.
It's fangs glowed purple as it bit into it's neck drawing blood. Leo lifted his entire body up and pressed his legs on the zombie's throat. He then pushed with all his might and spun around in mid air landing on his feet.
In his mouth was the bloody remains of the Legion zombie's neck;
Legion Zombie, HP: 3,200/15,200
"It's not over Leo," Percy told his dog. Leo spat out the piece of flesh and turned around just in time to see the Legion zombie's hand coming to squash him flat. Leo moved and avoided the giant hand. He then jumped on top of the hand and dug his claws into the zombies skin.
He ripped across the zombies arm and got up on it's back. The zombie tired to shake Leo off, but couldn't, Leo's claws were in too deep. Leo launched himself at the zombie's neck and latched onto the part of the spine that Leo had pulled out before.
Leo jaws closed on it tightly and his forward momentum caused the price of the spine he was hanging on to to be ripped out causing the zombie to fall down in pain.
Legion Zombie, HP: 1,900/15,200
Leo landed on the ground hard and rolled across the terrain. But he wasn't hurt to badly. He got up immediately and charged the Legion zombie again. Leo aimed for it's neck again. This time he got a much larger bite as he tore a larger chunk of the neck out.
The Legion zombie fell down in pain. Percy then watched as the zombie slowly lost more and more health.
Legion Zombie, HP: 600/15,200
Legion Zombie, HP: 0/15,200
It slowly disappeared into nothing and Leo stood proud and tall over the dead monster's body. It's snout and limbs were covered in blood, but Leo didn't seem to notice any of that. The monster turned into dust and a feeling of victory came over Leo.
The dog put his head up into the sky and for the first time, howled.
"Ahoooo!" Leo's voice was strong. Percy could feel his power. The demigod smiled. He had finally managed to convert his companion from a weak house dog to a powerful ally worthy to be called his companion.
Ping!

Percy smiled at the progress Leo had made. Already the dog was have as strong as Percy usually was, guess that just spoke about the natural superiority of strength Hellhounds have when compared to humans.
Percy approached Leo and looked down to see what Loot he had gotten. There was another low grad potion that Percy pocketed. 500$ and a fruit that looked like an apple in the shape of a peach.
Fruit of happiness,
Any person who is feed this fruit will feel happy to the person who gave it to them.
+10% bonus to health for the next hour.
Percy was surprised, a fruit like this was certainly a surprise to have. He took it and pocketed the fruit for later use. Maybe he could give it to Katie Gardner, the daughter of Demeter, maybe she could somehow make this fruit into a tree. Then they would have more of the fruits.
"That was fun master!" Leo practically bounced up and down, "I feel great!"
Percy smiled, "that's because you leveled up twice Leo. I have to say I am very impressed by the way you handled yourself. I'm proud of you."
Percy scratched Leo behind the ear and the dog, no, wolf sighed in happiness. Percy then began to allot points for Leo.
He put 5 points in Vit, 3 int Int and the remaining two in Wis;

Percy then closed the box and looked down at Leo, "ready to go home boy?"
"Sure mast-"
Just then an aura of power appeared overhead. Percy turned and saw a ball of shadow forming a few feet in front of them. Percy clicked his teeth, 'right, this guy.'
The ball broke open and a Knight of the Damned stepped out. He looked at Percy and leveled his large blade against him.
"I'll take him down!" Leo shouted as he charged at the Knight.
"Leo wait!" Percy tried to say but the wolf had given into his base desire to fight. He got a taste of power, and now he wanted more.
Leo charged right for the Knight and the monster almost cut Leo in half. Luckily the hybrid wolf jumped away in time. Leo then pounced on the Knight dropping him to the ground, he then used Crunchy to bite into the Knight's armour ripping it out.
Leo went to bite into the soft flesh underneath, but stopped, there was nothing inside except shadow. Leo was startled and the Knight smashed his blade into Leo side sending the wolf tumbling away.
"Leo!" Percy shouted as he zoomed to Leo's side holding his pet close.
Leo's HP: 150/1,450
Leo was barely holding on. 'Stupid dog,' Percy cursed as he used his blood control to draw a healing rune on Leo's body. He then used his own HP and 200 Mp to restore Leo to full health.
While this was going on the Knight of the Damned slowly approached Percy and Leo. He charged ahead and looked like he was about to cut them both down when Percy lifted his head and shot a paralysing glare at the Knight.
The monster stood still for a second, and that second was all that was need for Percy to destroy it.
Several spike of Ice erupted from Percy piercing the Knight all over. Then the shadows below the Knight exploded outwards wrapping the Knight up and immobilizing him. Percy then formed a giant water hammer out of the moisture in the air and brought it down on the monster hard destroying it into a million pieces of broken armour.
Ping!
Your companion: Leo, has leveled up three times!

Percy stopped the healing process as suddenly Leo was alright again. The wolf got up on it's feet and looked around, "where did the monster go?"
"Don't worry, I took care of it," Percy assured him before he became angry, "what the hell were you thinking?!"
The wolf yelped in fear, "m-master?"
"I told you not to fight! And even if your don't hear me, you are never supposed to just charge in and attack an unknown enemy Leo! That's not a smart thing to do!"
The wolf lowered its ears in sadness, "I'm sorry I failed you master. I promise I won't lose again."
Percy rubbed his temples, "it's not about losing or winning Leo. It's about the fact that you carelessly risked your life endangering yourself," Percy calmed down and looked down at the scared wolf. He felt guilty making Leo feel this why and sighed.
"Look Leo, I don't' ever want you doing something like this again, got it? I don't want you risking your life."
The wolf nodded, "understood master."
Percy nodded and scratched behind Leo's ear, "now let's go home." The wolf barked in agreement as Percy grabbed him and broke the ID.
