Looking at Venice and Matt currently wearing a really solemn face, Leo really wanted to laugh instead of feeling serious about it. In his mind, excitement was the only emotion he is currently feeling right now. He can prove his innocence pretty quickly, just by showing them that he's a human and not even a slave of any other race, especially the Vampire race. But, at the same time, he also wanted to see for himself just how capable was the so-called 5 Divisions, more specifically the Eagle Division.
If they're really as capable as what Ahmed and Brad had said before, then he will not hesitate to offer the entire Eclipse village a shelter in Heart city. No one will attack them, no one will hate them, no one will treat them as mere slaves, and they can freely do anything they want as long as it's within the rules and laws of Heart city and Silver Kingdom. They will no longer live in a place with the potential threat of Vampires and Magical Beast, and they will also no longer be required to walk their everyday lives seemingly like walking on a sharp edge of a dagger.
Think about it, the thing that Eclipse village really needs right now is a place they can call home. Although their current location right now could also be called a home, it's definitely not going to be a permanent one, since a day will surely come where either the Vampires or the Magical Beast or even other Foreign races decide to invade or destroy their Eclipse village. So, rather than staying in this Danger zone for their entire life, if someone like him offers them a safe sanctuary, then they will definitely consider that offer.
Moreover, Eclipse village would be a really great add on to his power, especially the 5 Divisions and that person who had thought about the 1 stone 6 birds plan. That person is definitely suited to become a Commander of his army.
"Answer us kiddo, if you really want to keep your life intact!" Matt solemnly said.
"My name is Leo Heart. I don't have any purpose for knowing about your confidential information, and I also don't work for anyone." Leo replied.
"Lies!" Venice exclaimed.
"Oh, then how about you cast that Magic spell which can see through lies?" Leo said with a mischievous smile on his face.
"Oh... That's a great idea!" Matt nodded his head repeatedly, "O great Mana that revolves around the entire Celestial World, allow this meager being to see through lies, Mana of Truth!"
*Whooosh!
The side of Matt's eyes suddenly lit up of blue colored lining.
"Okay, now repeat your answer once again!" Venice said.
"My name is Leo Heart. I don't have any purpose of knowing about your confidential information, nor do I work for someone that can post a threat to your Eclipse village." Leo said, seemingly sounding nonchalant.
Matt's eyes immediately widen after hearing Leo's answer. There were unexpectedly no lies at all. No, there was one, but it's about offering them sanctuary rather than what they have thought about as something that can threaten the safety of Eclipse village.
"He... he isn't lying..." Matt revealed.
"How? No, I don't believe that! You restrict him and I'll ask the question!" Venice quickly proposes. He really doesn't believe that Leo is telling the truth, because if that's really the case, then why would he bother about knowing their confidential information.
"Yes, it should be the other way around." Leo can't help agreeing, "I can't help but feel threatened with her breast more than her dagger around my neck!"
Hearing Leo's words, Venice curiously looked at her breast, which then made her noticed that her two peeks have been seemingly rubbing Leo's back this entire time.
Venice's face turned burning red as she quickly pushed Leo towards Matt as she yelled out in annoyance, "Pervert!"
Matt doesn't know whether he should laugh or not as soon as he received and restricted Leo's body. Should he laugh because Venice didn't notice that her breast has been stimulating Leo's man instincts, or should he not and just act like he didn't see that?
Venice shoots a deadly glare at Matt as she moved her mouth to form the words, "You didn't see anything, or else I'll kill you!"
Matt simply nodded his head as he didn't bother thinking about it anymore. Anyway, it wasn't his problem, so why should he bother about it. It's not like it's his dignity who was stepped on just now.
Venice shook her head and slap her face a few times to forget about that embarrassing scene a moment ago. After doing that, she closed her eyes and chanted, "O great Mana that revolves around the entire Celestial World, allow this meager being to see through lies, Mana of Truth!"
*Whoooosh!
Venice cat-like eyes lit up in the same way as Matt's as the scene in front of her soon after changed.
"Now, answer my question." Venice said, "How did you know our confidential information?"
"I decipher it!" Leo replied, seemingly stating the obvious.
Contrary to Venice's thoughts, Leo's answer wasn't actually a lie.
"How did you decipher our confidential information?"
"Can I call my Beast Companion?" Leo can't help asking. He could only answer Venice's question if Levi was here. That guy had unknowingly flown away once again the moment he took off his attention from him for a few seconds.
"You have a Beast Companion?!" Matt asked in astonishment. Base on his experience and the knowledge he had learned so far, only powerful or rich people can get Beast Companion. So, he can't help feeling astonished that this kiddo actually has one.
Leo didn't bother answering as he simply sounded a whistle using both his hands.
After a while, Levi, who seemingly blended his body completely in the darkness in front of them, suddenly appeared as he then landed on Leo's shoulder.
"Are you going to ask me a question again? Make it fast, I'm busy eating a feast in one of the Twilight Bear's cave!" Levi quickly said.
Matt and Venice completely became dumbfounded the moment they heard Levi's voice. If it was only an ordinary Beast Companion, then they wouldn't feel shocked about it. However, a talking Beast Companion was completely a different story. They have only heard about such a thing from their leader, they still haven't personally met an actual talking Magical Beast yet, but they know the fact that talking Magical Beast aren't something that ordinary people could have.
Seeing Levi landing comfortably on his shoulder, Leo then continued, "Levi told me a while ago that the Twilight Bears are hibernating, which then made me thought that this is the best time to plot against the Twilight Bears. If you can successfully steal the Magical resources, the Twilight Bears have prepared for their hibernation, then they will become weak the moment they wake up. After that, you will kill all of them, which would allow the Eclipse village territory to expand in this place, use the Magical resources you've stolen to strengthen the villagers of Eclipse village, use this place to have a safe passage that will connect to somewhere in the west, which I assume is the Silver Kingdom, and then lastly, you will finally have the chance to fight against the Vampires!"
Matt and Venice's eyes just keep on widening and widening the more they listen to Leo's explanation. All of the things he had said were the truth. Not a single lie at all. What's even more shocking, he had actually discovered all of that just after hearing that the Twilight Bears are in hibernation. Just how smart was this young man?!
"Where did you come from?" Venice can't help but ask.
"I'm a 1st-year student of Silver Mage Academy, a Mage Academy of Silver Kingdom to be exact, the territory that I assume you want to establish a trade connection with," Leo said without bothering about hiding his identity anymore. He was now 100% sure that the villagers of Eclipse village aren't a member of the Black organization or any evil organization. They are simply people who are seeking for a place they can call home.
"Take me to your leader, I have a more interesting proposal that he or she will definitely be glad to hearing about!" Leo said, "In fact, this deal, once agreed, would give the entire villagers of Eclipse village a safe sanctuary. You will no longer be living the same dangerous life anymore."
Ahmed, Brad, Matt, and Venice were immediately shocked after they heard Leo's words.
"Can you really give us that...?" Brad can't help but ask.
"If you can really give the entire Eclipse village a safe sanctuary, then I will give you my entire life in return!" Ahmed said with determination, implying that he was serious with his words.
Meanwhile, on the other hand, Matt and Venice were sent into deep contemplation rather than deciding to agree with what Leo had said immediately. They were members of the 5 Divisions, and the purpose of the establishment of the 5 Divisions was to give the villagers living in the Eclipse village a safe sanctuary. So, what Leo had proposed to them just now was very tempting. However, they honestly still don't believe Leo, even if they can see clearly that Leo isn't lying.
Matt decided to let go of Leo as he said, "Venice, go and report to our leader about Leo. We cannot decide anything, so let's just let her decide for us! Don't worry about us, with me here, no one would be endangered!"
"Okay!" Venice was quickly able to understand the importance of their current situation, so she didn't bother asking why and just immediately agree to go to their leader and report about this.
*Whoosh!
"Kiddo, if what you're proposing is indeed a safe sanctuary, even if it's not completely safe, as long as we can live somewhere else not in Twilight Forest, then you can count on me to help you persuade everyone!" Matt firmly said.
Hearing Matt's words, Leo can't help smiling gratefully. The more help he has, the easier he can persuade them, and hence he would finally have the entire Eclipse village to himself.
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
