"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
"Indeed!" Alfred nodded and turned to look at Leon, "Leon, where's the Demon Lord's body? I came to take his body back for a DNA test." Though he already checked the body and identified the body, he needed to act according to the rules of the Dragon Corps and take the body to the National Security Department for proper verification. This was the main reason he came to Leon. On top of that, the Demon Lord came from the central region, so he planned to hand the body over to Zach once the test was completed. "Oh, I had my men watch over the body," Leon said. He knew about the required procedures in the Dragon Corps, so when he ordered Chandler, Mason, and the others to clean the area, he arranged for Spencer and Stephen to store the Demon Lord's body elsewhere. He called Spencer and ordered him to bring the Demon Lord's body over. Shortly after, footsteps approach. Spencer and Stephen arrived carrying a stretcher; on top of the stretcher was the Demon Lord's body, covered by
"Mister Jubert, you are too kind. I just got lucky," Leon said with a smile. "Lucky? Leon, you're being far too modest! You killed four out of the eight criminals on the list. Luck alone won't accomplish that!" Alfred said. "Mister Glasbey, what did you just say? Mister Wolf killed four out of the eight criminals on the list? Am- Am I hearing you correctly?" Zach froze in shock. The others from the central region stared at Alfred in bewilderment as well. "You heard right! Mister Jubert, apart from the Demon Lord, Leon also killed the Poisonwielder, Asmodeus, and the Scarlet Thief," Alfred explained and briefly recounted the previous events. "What?! I see!" Despite their shock, realization dawned on them. The Dragon Corp in the central region made a few announcements, praising their counterpart in the southern region effort, upon receiving news about the deaths of the Poisonwielder, Asmodeus, and the Scarlet Thief. They all thought that this was accomplished by the Dragon
"No problem!" Leon smiled. According to the current paths for Cynthion Group and Elegante Group, their businesses would eventually extend into the market in the central region. Since Zach was a second-level Platinum Dragon Guard with great influence in the central region, impressing him would only benefit Leon. "Leon, there's something else that I'd like to discuss with you. Focus on healing and once you are better, please come to the Dragon Corps to see me. We'll talk then," Alfred added. "Sure," Leon said. With that, Alfred, Zach, and the others left with the Demon Lord's body. ... In the following days, Leon stayed home to heal. Though he suffered great injuries, he was a skilled doctor and healed faster than normal people, so he was practically whole again in just a week. During this time, the Hiltons sold everything in their possession and left the southern region. Hiltons Corporation was once the biggest competitor for Elegante Group, and most of its businesse
"Here's the thing. The Spears have disbanded and the Southern Boss fled. Without them, the underground community has started to cause trouble in recent days. I summoned you here to discuss what we should do about this." Alfred cut to the chase. The Southern Boss was once the ruler of the underground community with great influence and power. The Dragon Guards only left the Southern Boss alone for so long because of that. Once the Southern Boss fell, the other parties in the community would fight for power, leading to large-scale crossfire and casualties, which would affect the society as a whole. This was not something that the Dragon Corps wished to see. However, since Leon defeated the Southern Boss who worked with the Demon Lord and Hades, there was no way that the Dragon Corps could spare the Southern Boss any longer. The Southern Boss’s downfall and death were merely a matter of time. As the person in charge of the southern region branch of Dragon Corps, Alfred needed t
"Um," Leon was rendered speechless. He was close with the Thompsons and knew them better than Alfred did. Indeed, as the head of all families in the southern region, the Thompsons valued their reputation and would not be willing to get involved in the conflicts of the underground community. The Thompsons became the ruler of the southern region in every sense, so even if every member of the underground community were to combine their forces, they would not pose a threat to the Thompsons. With that said, the Thompsons had no reason to get involved. "Leon, I'll just give it to you straight! I want you to replace the Southern Boss and keep the underground community on your leash! Based on the kind of man I know you are, this will only benefit the Dragon Corps!" Alfred said seriously. The Dragon Corps was a unique organization and could not possibly take control of the underground community, but Leon was different. Though Leon worked for the Dragon Corps, he was considered an
"That's the end of the discussion! If you don't want to get involved with the underground community, you can select someone else to do it for you as well." Alfred compromised. He knew that for someone as accomplished and young as Leon who was talented in martial art and business, his future was bright and Alfred did not wish for him to be bound to the southern region either. Since Leon was reluctant to take after the Southern Boss, Alfred would only make him if Leon could find someone appropriate for the role. "Um, alright! I'll try my best," Leon said thoughtfully. He was not interested in the role, but since Alfred was only asking for his help to search for an appropriate candidate, he could consider it. "Alright, I'll leave it to you. I trust you! Now that that's done, let's discuss something more private," Alfred said with a smile. "Private? About what?" Leon asked in confusion. "Well, you asked me to look for herbs that contain light energy like the Fairy Fruit? I fo
