Leo talked with Ethan and Edward about the topic of leaving Silver Kingdom for half an hour before he finally left in a good mood.
Ethan and Edward agreed to join his Guild, but on the part of fighting against the Gods, they both said they'll wait and see. It was normal for them to react in such a way because unlike Cassandra and the others, both of them have only spent a week or two with Leo. No, it was only Ethan who spent that much time with Leo. As for Edward, he hasn't even spent a few days' worths of time with Leo.
The moment Leo left the temporary clinic, he quickly went to find the 12 Zodiacs.
He wasn't intending to invite anyone from the 12 Zodiacs, of course excluding Libra and Virgo since the two of them were Leaders of the Smiling Lion group, hence it's possible to invite them, but rather he just want to know the damage of the entire Silver City and the current status of Silver Kingdom right this moment. From there, he would estimate how much time it would take to rebuild the entire territory, thus he would have set a timer for himself.
As for the reason why he wants to have a set timer for himself, it's because the moment the Silver Kingdom recovers, he would then return to join hands with Queen Olivia to establish a small sect.
Aside from that, the set timer would also allow him to know how much time he has left for him to finish on his part of the plan.
Actually, it wasn't really necessary for him to have a set timer for himself. He could of course just use all the time he has in his lifetime to prepare himself in fighting against the Gods. But the question is, would his life be worth it that way?
Although he wants to fight against the Gods, he wasn't intending to trouble himself by spending his entire life doing only that. After all, his own Fate that was rewritten by the Fate Cube was forced upon his hand. This wasn't what he really wanted to do from the start, nor was it what he desires to do deep inside his heart, but rather because of being chosen by the Fate Cube he doesn't have any choice anymore but to accept such Fate.
However, that doesn't mean he can't end this Fate!
Every road has its own end, including his Fate right now.
He will accept this Fate to fight against the Gods willingly, but he would finish it as quickly as possible because he desires to spend the remaining half of his life doing something that he really wants to do, something that he can say for sure is worth it to be called, "a life well spent"
Soon, Leo arrived at the place where the 12 Zodiacs were staying at.
There were a total of 10 tents around this location, specifically 9 tents surrounding one tent in the middle.
Just by basing on these arrangements alone, it was clear to see that the 9 tents were the living quarters while the single tent in the middle was where they held their meetings and similar stuff.
It didn't take that long for Leo to find George and Charles. He found both of them together, sitting at a circle table while talking about which territory of Silver Kingdom should they choose now that they have won the war.
"Unfortunately, although the Blacksmoke City was destroyed by the Black organization's hidden trap, once it fully recovers, it would still belong to the Blacksmoke Noble Household and the other few Noble Households who used to live in that city." Charles expresses his regret that he can't choose Blacksmoke City, specifically a perfect location for an industrial city.
"Why don't you just choose the Southwest Fortress, then? Isn't it just the same? Although it's a bit far from the Blacksmoke Canyon, you can simply just create a road connecting the two and then in between, you will create a town to act as the outpost for storing the materials you have mined." George suggested.
"Just forget about it George, do you really expect Charles would do something that cost a lot of money? For him, every money spent means fewer girls to play, hahaha!" Leo suddenly butted in their conversation with a chuckle.
"Leo!" George greeted Leo with a smile on his face. "Glad to see that you've finally woke up. I really thought that something bad had happened to you, but turns out there was only an internal fight that happened between our side and Queen Maria and Madam Silva's side, causing the both of them to stop you and Master Olivia from doing something really stupid."
"You were supposedly the smartest between the three of us, but why did you still support our Master's decision? Oh, wait... I really almost forgot! It was actually because that Elder Rain guy was your supposedly dead older brother. Damn, now I'm the only one who doesn't have any family remaining..." Charles freely expressed his thoughts.
"Let's skip the formalities and get straight to the point. How's the situation of Silver City and the entire Silver Kingdom? How much time would it take for this entire territory to recover? And lastly, what's the both of you planning to do with your own territory?" Leo didn't bother beating around the bush as he went straight to his intention of visiting them.
"Hahahaha, why so serious junior brother, are you scared that we will threaten your position as the next President of Mischievous Lion organization?" George said while smirking and crossing his arms together in front of him.
"Should I change my choice of territory now and corner your Heart City with George instead? Block the harbor and block the south, forcing you to travel longs ways to reach both destinations, hence causing you to spend more money, which would, in turn, slow down the development speed of your territory?" Charles added while showing a provocative look on his face.
Seeing this, Leo simply shook his head before replying, "I don't plan to continue competing with the both of you on who will become the next President of Mischievous Lion organization anymore. In fact, I'm already thinking of giving all of my support to Gretchen instead. Both of you can now kiss goodbye in advance to that position because the situation now has tilted into 2 for Gretchen, 1 for George, 1 for Charles, and a proud zero for me, hahahaha!"
"You...!" Both George and Charles were immediately dumbfounded the moment they heard Leo mentioning that he has now supported Gretchen.
"Hey, we were only just joking with you!" George immediately put his arms around Leo's shoulder to try and remedy the situation.
"Indeed, I'll just stay cope up at the corner of Southwest Fortress." Charles added with a begging look on his face.
"So, how about answering my questions now?" Leo said before pushing George's hand away and walking forward to sit on the nearby chair. He then placed his right hand on top of the table, balled it into a fist, before resting the side of his head on top of it. His right leg was crossed on his left leg to show how calm he was. He then continued, "Maybe when you answer my questions one of you would be able to satisfy me, thus earning all of my support."
"Wait, wait, wait, are you really thinking of backing out from becoming the next president of the Mischievous Lion organization? Why???" George can't help himself from asking, as he was still doubtful of Leo's decision.
"Don't tell me you're planning to retire and spend the rest of your life surrounded by all of your beautiful women? Damn! That's indeed a really good decision. Even if I was in your shoes right now, I would also choose to do that! I'm so jealousssss!" Charles exclaimed his jealousy of Leo's blissful life.
"I think you didn't clearly understand my words, so I'll repeat it in a way that even the stupidest person in the entire Celestial World would be able to understand. I'm no longer still thinking of taking a step back; I-have-already-taken-a-step-back." Leo slowly explained word by word. "So, when are you answering my questions?"
What he's saying right now was indeed something he had already done, not still thinking of whether he would really do it or not.
This was a necessary step in his plan.
To be honest, the position of the next President of the Mischievous Lion organization was already long been determined, which is him. The process happening right now was only a show to make it look like to the outsiders that the Mischievous Lion organization is fair and just that even the position of the President is being competed by every capable member fairly.
The main reason for giving him this position was because he's the brother-in-law of Queen Olivia, hence giving the control of Mischievous Lion organization to him simply means that the Mischievous Lion organization would still remain in their Heart Noble Household's control and not someone else.
Although George and Charles were Queen Olivia's disciple, and not someone else, that still doesn't change the fact that they are not part of the Heart Noble Household. Therefore, once the Mischievous Lion organization falls in their hands, then the Heart Noble Household doesn't have any sort of control over the organization anymore, that is aside from Queen Olivia.
The Mischievous Lion organization was a hard work of Queen Olivia, and since she's now recognized by everyone the moment she revealed her identity as Reinhart's wife, then the Mischievous Lion organization naturally belongs to the Heart Noble Household now.
The other reason for choosing him as the President of the Mischievous Lion organization was because Queen Maria, the actual Ruler of Blue Fin Kingdom, has chosen him to marry one of her daughters to tie both the Silver Kingdom and Blue Fin Kingdom together. So, to prove that her daughter has married an 'actual' Prince of the new Silver Kingdom, giving him such a position needs to be done.
However, the moment he accepts becoming the President of the Mischievous Lion organization, he would then be tied with the Silver Kingdom. Meaning, all of his actions should be beneficial to the Silver Kingdom, and not someone else or something else.
It was already a fact that the Mischievous Lion organization is going to be the vassal of the new Silver Kingdom. So it's expected that the organization, although said to be an independent organization and ruled by another person, is, in reality, a sword of the new Silver Kingdom. Or to be more precise, Queen Olivia's sword.
Such a thing was not in line with his plan to fight against the Gods, so he could only choose to refuse such a good position.
