"One of my enemies, huh?" Leo muttered silently as he looked at the brown-haired butler. 

As far as he was concerned, he had never had any other enemies aside from the Gods of the Celestial World. Even Captain Timon and his little brother Timor were also both considered as related to the Gods of the Celestial World since they are following the commands of a member of the Naughty Elves organization. 

In the past when he was still so active as an assassin, all of his enemies had also already died on his hand. So, it's highly impossible for this brown-haired butler to actually be related to them. Not to mention, his enemies were all Humans, none of them were Elves. 

Speaking about Elves, since this brown-haired butler is also an Elf, then there is a very high chance for him to be related to the Naughty Elves organization. That is if he turns out to really be his enemy in the present. 

Although Leo's voice was silent, both Elvis and Brother Elmont close to his side were still able to hear it. 

"What do you mean?" Elvis quickly asked Leo. 

While on the other hand, Brother Elmont simply perked his ears to listen closely. 

Since both of them were able to hear it, Leo thoughts that there is no use to hiding it anymore. Anyways, he was also planning something that would need both Elvis and one of Uncle Elfin's family's cooperation, so there is no problem telling Elvis and Brother Elmont about what he's planning to do. 

"See that brown-haired butler over there," Leo pointed at the brown-haired butler that is on his way to pour the drinks for Queen Tina.

Both Elvis and Brother Elmont immediately turned to look at that brown-haired butler. 

Leo continued, "Elvis, I want you to investigate that brown-haired butler. And Brother Elmont, a small request from me, is it alright for you to provide the information of that brown-haired butler to Elvis?"

"Is there something wrong with that brown-haired butler?" Brother Elmont can't help asking. 

"Yes, I'm suspecting that he's related to the Naughty Elves organization," Leo silently replied. 

"What?!" Brother Elmont immediately exclaimed in surprise after hearing Leo's answer. 

After that, everyone in the dining room immediately turned to look at Brother Elmont.

"Sorry, I was just surprised at what Brother Leo had just said," Brother Elmont quickly said apologetically to everyone. After saying that, he then turned to look at Leo as he pretended to asked, "So it is really true that there is a Galaxy Mage in the Mischievous Lion Guild?"

Hearing that question, everyone's attention immediately turned to look at Leo.

Leo immediately caught on to what Brother Elmont was doing, so he quickly replied, "Yes, his name is Ethan,"

"Ethan, ha? Leo, if it's okay to ask, where did you and this person named Ethan meet?" Uncle Elfin asked before he put a steak to hit the mouth. 

"He's the son of one of my father's friends," Leo replied, though he didn't dare reveal that Ethan is one of the sons of Erskine Silver. The butler is still in the room, so it wouldn't be wise to do that. 

"Hmmm," Uncle Elfin nodded his head as he didn't bother continuing the topic anymore. From Leo's reply alone, he could already understand that he clearly doesn't want him to know about Ethan. It's alright though since everyone has a secret or two that they don't want others to know about. In fact, in spite of how close he is treating Leo right now, there are still certain things about the Evergreen royal family that he will certainly not let him know about as well unless of course, it's necessary for him to know, like for example; about his father, Red Heart.

Brother Elfin and Brother Elmore also understood this point, so they turned to their food and began eating. They would also talk with each other about some topic related to the Emerald Tree Kingdom from time to time.

Unbeknownst to everyone though, one of the princesses, specifically Princess Tifa immediately became interested in Ethan after hearing this. While on the other hand, Princess Tila became even more interested in Leo as she realized that only someone really capable would be able to successfully invite a Galaxy Mage to join their Guild, especially considering that Leo is merely a 1 Star Mage. 

As for Aunt Tina, she busied herself again grabbing different dishes and putting it on her husband's plate. What a meticulously and sweet wife...

The maids and butlers continued serving food and beverages to everyone as they didn't bothered with Leo anymore, especially that brown-haired butler who Leo, Elvis, and Brother Elmont had secretly noticed was paying the most attention to Leo.

"Let's continue talking later," Leo said to Brother Elmont. 

Hearing Leo's words, Brother Elmont said, "Sorry..." 

"It's okay. I was also not planning on talking about it while we are eating, see," Leo said as he pointed towards the brown-haired butler again who is now pouring drinks to Nightingale, specifically only two seats away from them. If they really choose to continue with the conversation, then they would definitely risk revealing what they are planning to do. He suggested, "Let's go somewhere else later and continue talking about it,"

Both Elvis and Brother Elmont nodded their heads in understanding. 

Everyone continued eating their lunch while at the same time talking about casual topics from time to time. Mostly the topics were about the Emerald Event.

Soon, everyone finally finished eating their lunch. Afterwards, everyone quickly decided to leave, explaining that they still have something else to do. 

"Leo, I still have something important to do, so I'll be leaving you with my seventh son, Elmont," Uncle Elfin said before bidding farewell to Leo. 

In the next moment, Princess Tifa and Princess Tila unexpectedly walked towards Leo as they then asked, "Leo, can we take Angel with us?" 

Hearing that question, Leo quickly turned to look for Angel to ask for an answer. 

Noticing Leo's gaze, Angel replied, "I'll take care of myself," 

Since it was fine, Leo nodded his head, "Okay, be sure to not cause trouble to them," or me...

He decided not to say those two words as it might cause Angel to be angry at him. Better not cause any more trouble to himself.

After seeing Angel, Princess Tifa, and Princess Tila leaving, Leo along with Elvis, Iasiah, and Nightingale quickly went somewhere else following the lead of Brother Elmont. 

After a few minutes of walking, Leo and the others finally arrived at the place where Brother Elmont was taking them to in order to talk about something important. 

"Are you serious?" Elvis asked doubtfully while looking at the place in front of him. 

Iasiah and Nightingale were also feeling dumbfounded. 

Even Leo was showing a face that displays he's speechless about it while looking at Brother Elmont.

The place wasn't really something that they could say was unexpected, especially after knowing a few things about Brother Elmont. Though, they still can't help but feel a bit unsure and curious about it as they didn't expect him to actually bring them to such a place. After all, they are going to talk about something really important. With such a topic of conversation alone, even if Brother Elmont likes such a place, he should at least still think of the importance of the matter and bring them to somewhere else more hidden and secured.

Where exactly did Brother Elmont bring them? 

Well, if Brother Elmont wasn't going to take them to the arena, then he would definitely be taking them to the training ground...

"Don't worry, this is my personal training ground. No one else could get inside here aside from me and a few other people that I trust. But as of today, those people are busy doing something important, you know, that secret operation that I can't say anything about. So, there is definitely no one in this training ground right no-" 

Before Brother Elmont could finish his words, he immediately shut up and ate his words. 

"Hi... Selina..." Elmont waved his hands shyly while his face was showing a bit of red. 

Leo and the others immediately turned to look at the only person currently training in Brother Elmont's personal training ground. To be more precise, this person was an extremely beautiful woman.

Elvis, Iasiah, and Nightingale were immediately attracted by this woman named Selina due to her beauty, while as for Leo, he remained calm and composed. 

Selina soon started walking towards Leo and the others. 

"They are?" Selina asked Brother Elmont. 

"They are-" Brother Elmont wanted to personally introduce everyone, but his sentence was immediately interrupted. 

"Hello, beautiful!" Elvis quickly greeted without feeling any sense of shame. 

"Miss Selina, you can call me Iasiah. I don't know if I'm crazy or not, but I think our meeting is due to Fate," Iasiah introduced himself while he also used Leo's line during his conversation with King Elfin the Fourth in the garden before as a pick-up line.

Unlike Elvis and Iasiah though, Nightingale introduced himself in a simple and cool manner, "Hi, I'm Nightingale,"

Last to introduced himself was naturally no one else but Leo, "I am Leo,"

There's no other simplest form of introduction aside from Leo. His introduction was simply as lifeless as a dead person. 

Unbeknownst to everyone though, Leo had actually done his introduction this way on purpose as he was exactly aiming to have a bad impression from Selina. 

It isn't because he doesn't like Selina. In fact, her beauty alone is already on a similar level to Cassandra and the others. So, it's next to impossible for him to immediately dislike such a woman, especially considering that they have just met. Not to mention, just like Uncle Elfin and his family, Selina also has a green-colored String of Fate connected to him, which means to say that she's an ally. 

One of the reasons why he wanted to have a bad impression from Selina is simply because he really doesn't want to have any trouble. 

Base on his previous experiences with women, especially with beautiful women in the same level as Cassandra and the others, not a single one of them would not cause him any trouble. It's even safe to say that as long as they are women, beautiful or not, they would definitely cause him trouble; if not today, then definitely the next. 

Simply put, women are the epitome of trouble in his life. 

Cassandra and the others alone are already enough for him to have a lot of trouble to face, so it's much better for him to stay as far away as possible from Selina, even if there is no red-colored String of Fate connecting them.

Aside from that he doesn't want any trouble, he also doesn't want to affect the Fate of two people, specifically Brother Elmont and Selina. 

He had already noticed that there is an obvious red-colored String of Fate between Brother Elmont and Selina, which means to say that they are destined to be in love with each other.

As someone who can directly or indirectly affect people's Fate, he doesn't want to accidentally cause a change to that. Therefore, choosing to stay away from Selina right from the very beginning is the best decision. 

Of course, staying away from Selina would just be temporary. As one of his potential allies, he would definitely be needing her help one day. But, he'd only consider building a relationship with her once she and Brother Elmont are finally in a romantic relationship. In such a way, it would just be similar to Ethan and Elaine.

At this very point of time, it doesn't need someone with a high emotional quotient to know that Brother Elmont is still shy in facing Selina, while Selina, on the other hand, is still treating Brother Elmont as a friend or someone close to her.

Love, what a complicated and hard to explain word...
