The Southern Boss nodded in agreement. "Yeah, that has to be the case! How lucky can he be to obtain a tressure in the Semi-Saint State?" He learned that Leon had a defensive tool in the Intermediate Almighty State from the battle earlier and that there was no limit to its usage. Tressures were scarce, especially the ones that contained great power, so the Southern Boss was displeased that Leon had a defensive tool in the Intermediate Almighty State and a tressure in the Semi-Saint State. "Forget about him! I need to ask you something. How did the Poisonwielder, Asmodeus, and the Scarlet Thief die?" Hades changed the subject. "I'm not sure, but I think Leon was the one who killed the Scarlet Thief," The Southern Boss explained thoughtfully. He did not know what happened with the Poisonwielder and Asmodeus, but the circumstances were different for the Scarlet Thief, who was ordered by the Southern Boss to assassinate Leon, only to die suddenly. The Southern Boss was baffled
"Please calm down, Hades! Though Leon's resourceful, he's far too young and is probably at the Initial Almighty State at best, so it'd take him at least a year to accumulate enough energy to force that Potential Energy Force. I gathered that the Potential Energy Force he wielded was probably the only one he had, or he wouldn't have let us go without attacking!" The Southern Boss said. He fought Leon many times and could tell that Leon was in the Initial Almighty State at best. Leon was far from reaching the Semi-Saint State, so it would require great energy and time to produce an attack at the level of the Semi-Saint State; with that in mind, he assumed that Leon only had one Potential Energy Force in his possession. "Hm, that might be true!" Hades was convinced, as he countered Leon's poisonous daggers and nearly killed Leon; if Leon truly possessed another Potential Energy Force, he could have used it right there and then to prevent the Southern Boss from escaping. "Hades, no
"But," Reluctant to give up, the Southern Boss tried to argue, only to be interrupted by Hades. "End of discussion! Tressures may be tempting, but my life matters most! If you want to manipulate me into retaliating against Leon on your behalf, you should just give up now!" Hades sneered. He was no fool and could tell the Southern Boss wanted to use him. The Scarlet Thief and the Demon Lord were used by the Southern Boss and both ended up killed by Leon. Considering what happened, Hades had no intention of repeating their mistakes. "Hades, I have no intention of using you. I'm telling the truth. I can assure you that Leon ran out of Potential Energy Forces and with his injuries now, this is the best time to take him out. If you miss this chance, he will recover and might even obtain another Potential Energy Force. If that happens, he'll be a great threat to you," The Southern Boss assured. He conflicted with Leon numerous times in the past and had a general understanding of th
Confused, the Southern Boss asked, "Why would we look for Brahma?" "The Demon Lord, the Scarlet Thief, and the others were all killed by Leon! I need to inform Brahma and get him to help take Leon out! If he is willing to help, that brat is doomed!" Hades said viciously. The eight criminals on the list were all killed except for Hades and Brahma, and it was unsettling to know that Leon was still alive. Brahma ranked first on the criminal list and reached the Semi-Saint State. On top of that, he possessed a powerful treasure at the Saint State; so long as Brahma was willing to act, they could easily eliminate Leon. Once Leon was taken out, Hades could pay Brahma to obtain the treasure Leon possessed without having to risk his own life-fighting Leon. "That's great! With Brahma's help, Leon's going to die!" The Southern Boss said in excitement. Through the earlier fight, he witnessed how resourceful Leon was and realized that Leon was far more challenging to deal with compared
"Southern Boss, are you done deciding? Are you coming to the central region with me, or are you staying here?" Hades asked, setting aside his plan to take Leon out. "Well," The Southern Boss muttered thoughtfully and decided. "Never mind. I'm heading to the western region! The Western Boss is a friend of mine and I will seek refuge with him. Once I get better, I'll go to the central region," the Southern Boss said. He was wanted for working with Hades and the Demon Lord, so Alfred and the Dragon Guards would not show him any mercy. Therefore, it would only be possible for him to remain in the southern region. However, he knew no one in the central region, so it seemed pointless to head there either. The Dragon Guards in the central region were far more powerful, including martial artists in the Peak Almighty State and even the Semi-Saint State. The Southern Boss was only at the Advanced Almighty State and was badly injured; if he ran into the Dragon Guards in the central region
"The Potential Energy Forces were given to me by a great martial artist and he gave me a total of three. Unfortunately, I've used them all up," Leon said regretfully. He proceeded to briefly explain everything without exposing Master Haslewood's identity as he was related to the Dragon Corps. "You used it all up?" The women were all slightly disappointed. They all witnessed the power of the Potential Energy Force and knew that no one in the entire Sky County could harm Leon if he possessed more Potential Energy Forces. They all wished that he could obtain more so that they did not have to worry about him anymore, but reality proved that it was merely their wishful thinking as Leon used the only three Potential Energy Forces he possessed. "Leon, where's this martial artist? Can't you talk to him and ask for more?" Cynthia asked. Iris and Cynthia knew Leon for the longest time and as the president of Cynthion Group, Cynthia knew that the company had great potential; if it conti
"Yeah, Iris is right!" "You've defeated the Southern Boss and taken down the Spears and Hiltons!" "No one would ever dare to come looking for troubles!" ... Cynthia, Snow, and Ruth all beamed and decided that they worried too much. Indeed, with Leon reaching the invincible state of Intermediate Almighty State, no one other than Arthur could rival him. Even without the Potential Energy Forces, no one could harm him. "I hope so," Leon sighed, clearly not as optimistic as the others. Though he eliminated the Spears and the Hiltons, the Southern Boss escaped alive. Considering the grudges between him and the Southern Boss, he knew that the Southern Boss would return, seeking revenge. So long as the Southern Boss was still alive, he could not rest. Just as he was absorbed in his thoughts, footsteps approached and Mason hurried inside. "Mister Wolf, Mister Glasby from the Dragon Corps is here to see you," Mason reported respectfully. "Oh, let him in," Leon said. He
"Pleasure, Mister Wolf! What a surprise that someone your age manages to become a Platinum Dragon Guard! How impressive!" Zach said and studied Leon calmly. As soon as Zach arrived in the southern region, he received news from Alfred and learned that Hades showed himself. Zach hurried to the scene and joined forces with Alfred's group, before collaborating to search for Hades. Unfortunately, Hades was one step ahead of them and left the southern region. After two hours of searching, neither Zach nor Alfred could locate Hades, and they had to give up in the end. Afterward, Alfred brought Zach to the Heavenly Waters Estate to meet with Leon. Zach did not know why Alfred made such an arrangement, but as a second-level Platinum Dragon Guard, he had little to no regard for a young man like Leon. Hence, he merely exchanged a few pleasantries with Leon out of respect for Alfred. Following a brief conversation, Leon asked worriedly, "Mister Glasby, how'd it go? Did you manage to
