"That's why we will test him," Leo smiled in response.
"Test him?" Ethan curiously asked.
"Test me?" Elvis doubtfully asked.
Elaine, who was remaining silent, finally spoke as she said, "Don't tell me the both of you didn't actually notice?"
"Notice what?" Ethan and Elvis asked in unison.
"Idiots, think about the Emerald Event and the Emerald Elven Battle Competition!" Elaine replied as she rolled her eyes to mock them.
Hearing Elaine's reply, a sudden realization immediately hit both Ethan and Elvis' minds. They quickly looked at each other as they both finally understood how Leo would test Elvis, whether he is really capable enough to be responsible for creating the Intelligence Department of the Mischievous Lion Guild or not.
"During the Emerald Event, Elvis would be given the responsibility to lead Lex, Virgil, and the members from the Smiling Lion group to gather as many information possible for our Mischievous Lion Guild. Their main responsibility would be to locate the location of the Magical Beast tribes that can provide us with a lot of points and a detailed report of our possible competitors for the Emerald Event," Leo said as he took out a pen and a paper from his Storage Ring and wrote two words, 'Emerald Event' and 'Emerald Elven Battle Competition'. He then encircled the 'Emerald Event' as he continued, "As long as we get one of the top 100 spots for the Emerald Event, it would mean that Elvis has half of the needed capability for him to become the Leader of our Intelligence Department."
After saying that, Leo then created a line to connect the word 'Emerald Event,' to the 'Emerald Elven Battle Competition' before encircling the latter word and explaining, "During the Emerald Elven Battle Competition, Elvis together with the others would then again gather information of our opponents. They will be responsible in providing a detailed report about the capability of our opponents, including their strengths, weaknesses, and other necessary information."
"The placing we would then get at the end of the Emerald Elven Battle Competition would prove to us whether Elvis is really capable enough to become the Leader of the Intelligence Department or not." Leo finished explaining. He turned to look at Ethan, Elaine, and Elvis as he asked, "If you have any suggestions, feel free to speak,"
"To be honest, I'm amazed to the point that I don't see any problems with your plan," Ethan expressed how he feels about Leo's plan. He explained, "If we could indeed get one of the top 100 spots for the Emerald Event and also get one of the top 10 placing, or best even become the champion, at the end of the Emerald Elven Battle Competition through the information that Elvis provided to us during both competitions. Then I don't see any reason why Elvis shouldn't become the Leader for the Intelligence Department of the Mischievous Lion Guild. In fact, it would be regretful for us if such a responsibility is not given to him."
At the side, Elvis nodded his head repeatedly before saying, "Honestly speaking, if I could really achieve those things you wanted me to achieve, then I will no longer have a problem with having the responsibility of creating and leading the Intelligence Department of the Mischievous Lion Guild. Instead, I will feel honor for your trust to me in giving me such a big responsibility,"
Hearing Ethan and Elvis' response, Leo laughed before saying, "It's decided then!"
"I will quickly call Lex and Virgil here to introduce Elvis to them and to further discuss about their plans," Ethan said as he quickly stood up from his seat, "So if you excuse me... I mean us,"
Ethan and Elaine quickly left to look for Lex and Virgil as both of them were needed here to finalize their current discussion. Aside from that, he also wanted to check about the current progress of the needed materials to complete the construction of the Smiling Lion Village. If there is a need to buy some more materials and other necessary stuff for the Smiling Lion Village, then it's much better to know about it now while they are still having a discussion to give a solution to such problems together with their discussion about the preparation for the Emerald Event and Emerald Elven Battle Competition. In such a way, there is no need to bring up those problems anymore during the time that they are focusing on both competitions, thus allowing them to not get distracted.
Leo can't help becoming curious after seeing Ethan and Elaine leave, but since it was already too late to stop them and that they will be returning soon after finding Lex and Virgil, he decided to take a break and talk about something else until they return.
"By the way, can you tell me more about the Emerald Event and the Emerald Elven Battle Competition," Leo asked as he turned to look at Elvis?
"I know almost everything about those two events, so you can ask me anything," Elvis replied.
"Okay," Leo nodded his head, and continued, "First tell me about the rules and regulations,"
"To be honest, the Emerald Event and Emerald Elven Battle Competition basically only have a few rules and regulations," Elvis paused and thought for a bit. After a few seconds, he then continued, "First; do not involve those that didn't participate in the event. Like, for example, ordinary civilians or those people that just wanted to watch the events. This also included the territories of the Emerald Tree Kingdom, because obviously, they don't want their territory to be destroyed due to both events."
"Of course, there is an extremely strict limit set for those people that want to try to abuse this rule for their advantage. Like for example, if a non-participant in the Emerald Event tries to cause trouble to the participants by means of causing them to lost points or stopping them from earning points, then they would then automatically be deemed as temporary participants of the Emerald Event, even without any proof, allowing the official participants to hurt them or do whatever they deemed fit, including capturing them, injuring them, both mildly or seriously, or worst, simply killing them."
"This rule practically discourages any negative methods of abusing the only rule of the Emerald Event," Leo nodded his head in approval. He turned to look at Elvis and motioned his hand for him to continue, "Go on,"
"Second; both the solo and group participants aren't in any way separated. In other words, both kinds of participants belong to the same category, hence the rankings for the points they have gathered would be tallied together."
"But, it doesn't mean that solo participants are at a disadvantage when gathering points. If one is a solo participant, then every Magical Beast that they have exchanged for points will earn them twice the amount of points compared to those that participated as groups. Though that doesn't really help that much because groups could basically have as many people as they can."
"Unfortunately, the main disadvantage of solo participants would be seen when the Elven Battle Competition finally begins. During the event, solo participants would only be able to invite a total of two people to form a team. It is really disadvantageous because those that claimed one of the top 100 in the Emerald Event as groups could have a total of 10 people out of their entire group to form a team during the Emerald Elven Battle Competition, specifically 6 main players while 4 are reserve players."
"Third; any participants could sell the points that they have gathered to other participants, with no price limitations or the likes. In other words, depending on their agreement,"
"This means that any participants that don't feel confident on both the Emerald Event and the Emerald Elven Battle Competition could choose to sell all of their points to other participants."
"In this way, those participants that had earned points but weren't able to place in the top 100 of the Emerald Event haven't wasted their efforts as they still have a chance to get something out of the Emerald Event. This rule would also allow those strong participants but wasn't able to get enough points to earn a place in the top 100."
"However, selling and buying of points would end once the top 100 of the Emerald Event is announced. The participants also could not sell their spot in the top 100 once the Emerald Event is over, and could only completely resign if they don't want to participate."
"And lastly; any tools, items, and whatsoever means possible to earn points is completely allowed in the Emerald Event, but not in the Emerald Elven Battle Competition. In the former, one could use both legal and illegal means, but in the latter, only legal means is allowed, and most are even banned to implement fairness in the competition."
"Once a participant is caught and is proven guilty, they are immediately executed in the spot, even if they have a powerful backer."
"To assure this fairness, before the start of the Emerald Elven Battle Competition, all the participants are required to sign a contract that states that they have agreed in the rules and regulations, and the respective consequences of the event without being forced by anyone."
"The powerful backers behind them, if ever there is indeed any, are also informed and should also sign a contract that they have agreed about the rules, regulations, and consequences of the event before those participants would be allowed to participate. If they don't respond before the competition starts, then those participants would have their placings voluntarily given up."
"This is how serious and fair the Emerald Tree Kingdom is for their events. Anyone that dares to break it, would be made to pay for the consequences by the Mana of the Celestial World itself." Elvis finished explaining.
"Is such fairness proven, though?" Leo can't help asking. Even though a contract was said to be signed, it is in fact still not a sure guarantee of the so-called fairness in the competition since as long as one is powerful enough such fairness could easily be broken. To prove the fairness, an example of someone paying the consequences of breaking the rules is needed, much preferably someone more powerful than the Emerald Tree Kingdom itself.
"Of course! To tell you the truth, there are already a few examples in the past competitions. One of those that had paid the price for breaking the contract was even a Goblin Empire. The moment they broke the rules of the Emerald Elven Battle Competition, that Goblin Empire was right after completely erased by the Mana of the Celestial World itself, seemingly in just a blink of an eye. It's like they never existed at all," Elvis shook his head in pity.
Hearing Elvis' reply, Leo finally believed the truthfulness of the so-called fairness in the competition of the Emerald Tree Kingdom. Even an Empire wasn't spared, an example of existence much more powerful than the Emerald Tree Kingdom, so not to mention the others.
Well, to begin with, the contract that they have signed wasn't just any ordinary contract. It was a Magic contract similar to the contracts that he always uses to avoid anyone from breaking the agreement. Like, for example, the Slave Contract that he had signed with Cassandra, the Member Contract that Ethan had signed, or the Employment Contract that Eilajah had signed.
This kind of contract is basically created by the Mana of the Celestial World itself, so it's indeed impossible to escape from the consequences once one breaks it, even the Gods of the Celestial World aren't an exception to that rule.
