Hearing his second son Edson's words, King Erskine can't help blinking his eyes a few tis, seemingly wanting to know whether his second son was really the Edson he knew ever since young.
"Why is that?" King Erskine asked curiously as he finally turned serious.
"It's very simple; instead of fighting for a comfortable chair situated at the very top of the castle and also seemingly overlooking but at the sa ti looking down at everything that the Silver royal family owns, I would rather want to go into an adventure and experience many wonderful things outside of Silver Kingdom."
"Father, do you know, I went into a tavern one ti, and I heard a few young people saying how wonderful and glorious the Horizon Empire was and that have they ever went to see the powerful yet magnificent Flyingboats and Flyingships of the Aurora Empire. They also said that unlike other Human Kingdoms, Silver Kingdom is actually ranked at the very bottom, aning we are the weakest out of all Human territory. Of course, as a mber of the Silver royal family, I beca enraged and defended our honor. But unexpectedly, those young people, who were only older than by a year, actually have the cultivation of a 3rd Galaxy Mage."
"Tell , father, is it really worthy for to stay in this territory and fight with my brothers just for a comfortable throne and a golden King's crown to mark that I'm the owner of the entire Silver Kingdom? Truth be told, I can actually buy a throne for myself and buy a King's crown and not to even feel afraid of walking in the middle of the street while proclaiming myself as the new King of Silver Kingdom if I really want to because I'm now much more powerful than you, father. So, if you were , would you really choose to spend your days in this garbage territory instead of traveling around the Celestial World? Discovering new things and the likes, experiencing different new kinds of stuff, further increasing your cultivation, and many more."
Hearing his second son Edson's words, King Erskine didn't beco mad and instead smile, and eventually, he started laughing.
"HAHAHAHAHA, you're indeed my son. This choice of yours, I'll support it with everything I have. Even if the entire Silver royal family is against it, I'll block their way so that you can achieve your dream!" King Erskine stood up as he raised his wine cup to the air.
Everyone also quickly followed after, but hesitation was clearly obvious to see on Edson's three brothers' faces. After hearing Edson's words, they can't help reconsidering whether they really want to be a King of Silver Kingdom or not, considering that the Silver Kingdom is actually classified as garbage. Obviously, no one wants to rule a trashcan, right?
*Cling!

"Oh, so you also want to be like the Second Prince?" Leo finally understood why Fourth Prince Ethan wants to join the Mischievous Lion organization. It's exactly because the mont the Mischievous Lion organization replaced the Silver royal family on the throne of Silver Kingdom, his future destiny to beco a replacent for his older brother Crown Prince Edward wouldn't beco possible anymore. After all, the mont the Silver royal family doesn't own the Silver Kingdom anymore, there is no throne and golden King's crown to be passed to another generation within the Silver royal family. In short, there is nothing that would hold them back.
"Also, that's not the only reason why I desire to join the Mischievous Lion organization." Fourth Prince Ethan continued, "I heard that your Master Olivia is a 7th Galaxy Mage, so this Mischievous Lion organization must be powerful, right?"
Hearing those words from the Fourth Prince Ethan, Leo can't help rolling his eyes. What powerful, the Mischievous Lion organization might be powerful but it's actually only because of his Master Olivia and the 24 Elders who have cultivation ranging from 9 Star to 2nd Galaxy level, aside from them, other mbers could barely even reach the 5 Star level, unless of course if they are the 12 Zodiacs.
Look at him for example, he might be one of the people with a lot of power in the Mischievous Lion organization, not only because he's a disciple of his Master Olivia, but it's also because he leads 1/4 of the 12 Zodiacs, but looking at himself individually, he's actually not that powerful. In fact, he's just starting to improve his cultivation even further right now because he realized that even with brains as long as he doesn't have any sort of personal power himself, he would definitely be easy to defeat, or worst, even killed.
Even his two senior brothers already understood this point ahead of him, that's why they trained themselves in both the Southwest Fortress and Southern Fortress in order to beco powerful.
"Maybe..." Leo didn't dare tell the truth, as it might just discourage Fourth Prince Ethan.
"There is no need to hide. I have already personally seen your two senior brothers back then at Blue Coral city. Gemini Dagger George and Claw of Cancer Charles, right? Those two people were already at the 7 Star Mage level, and that George is obviously at the peak of 7 Star level already. So, your Mischievous Lion organization is definitely powerful. Hence, if I can join it, my path to becoming even powerful than now wouldn't be that hard anymore!" Fourth Prince Ethan punched to the air despite his both hands being bounded as his eyes lit up brightly and expectations evident inside.
Hearing Fourth Prince Ethan's information about his two senior brothers, Leo's face imdiately turned solemn as he thought, "I can't believe those two are already aiming to reach the Galaxy level while I'm still trying to break through to the 1 Star level..."
"Oh, I also have more information with . Do you know, the Snow Noble Household is actually a part of a clan located behind the mountains of the Frozen Tundra, which ans they're even much more powerful than Noble Households. In fact, both the Honoris Noble Household and Crystal Skull Noble Household has already decided to join Snow Noble Household in order for them to join that clan because the Snow Noble Household has announced already that they would leave the Silver Kingdom after this war is over and return to their clan." Fourth Prince Ethan revealed, "Even they themselves are already aiming their best to beco much more powerful, so not to ntion , right?"
"Right..." Leo just nodded his head nonchalantly. At this mont, his thoughts were imdiately preoccupied with worry about his fiancée, Elizabeth Snow. Although he had unknowingly forgotten of any kind of mories with her in the past, his heart is actually constantly telling him to go believe and trust her. To be honest, that's also the reason why he didn't really bother stopping Elizabeth in her desire to live in the sa villa as him. And after living with each other and being together for a few weeks or so, he can't hold himself back anymore from wanting to know what exactly was their past. Just what did he do to make such a beautiful girl love him, he's really curious about it.
However, now that he knows Elizabeth belongs to a clan, and that the Snow Noble Household is leaving Silver Kingdom to return to that clan, his heart really seems like it unknowingly and confusingly shattered into pieces.
"Why...?"
.....
"Hey, Leo..." Ash waved her hand in front of Leo.
"Oh, yes?" Leo quickly snapped out of his thoughts as he turned to look at Ash, "Why?"
"You were spacing out for more than an hour now. Look..." Ash pointed at Fourth Prince Ethan already drinking tea with both Charlotte and Chief Lago while laughing from ti to ti, "Even they've already decided to drink tea because they noticed you were in deep thoughts."
"He didn��t do anything fishy while I was thinking?"
"Nope, he only asked if they can drink tea to wait until you finish thinking. Both Charlotte and Chief Lago agreed because it seems like Fourth Prince Ethan doesn't really have any bad intention to you." Ash explained.
"That's indeed what I also felt..."
"So you will let the Fourth Prince Ethan join us?"
"That's no longer a question, I definitely need him to join ." Leo said with his eyes turning serious. After hearing that both his senior brothers were now nearing the Galaxy level, he quickly understood that it would no longer be possible for him to fight them personally.
However, with Fourth Prince Ethan, a 1st Galaxy Mage, joining him, he can easily reverse his current situation.
Moreover, right this mont, he doesn't only want to beco the President of the Mischievous Lion organization, he now needs to beco the President of Mischievous Lion organization. Elizabeth belongs to a powerful clan and they're going to return to that clan after this war was over, so for him to have a chance to reach her and know why his heart confusingly and unknowingly shattered monts ago, he would need more power, sothing that he can use to contend against clans.
Clans aren't just any ordinary group of people, they are so powerful that their level is only below the level of sects, aning they're above the level of Empires. They're made up of hundreds of Noble Households, or even thousands, so their reputation isn't without any justifying reason. In fact, most clans control an Empire, and that they even have mbers of other Foreign races aside from their own.
"Fourth Prince Ethan!" Leo called out, making Fourth Prince Ethan turn his head to look at him.
"Oh, you're done thinking?" Fourth Prince Ethan curiously asked, "By the way, please stop calling Fourth Prince Ethan, call Ethan instead."
"Okay, I'll call you Ethan, starting now. And yes, I've already decided, but I have one condition, so I hope you don't mind!" Leo said with a mischievous smile on his face.
"Conditions are also fine with . So what kind of condition is this?" Ethan stood up from his seat and looked at Leo.
"I'll allow you to join the Mischievous Lion organization, but only if you're going to be loyal to . You see, every mber of the Mischievous Lion organization needs to choose who they will be loyal to amongst the 12 Zodiacs, and since you proposed the desire to join the Mischievous Lion organization to , one of the 12 Zodiacs, then you need to be loyal to if you want to join!" Leo said as he crossed his leg while looking at Ethan.
"Mischievous Lion organization is indeed really great, even their mbers are arranged in order!" Contrary to Leo's thoughts about Ethan considering it for a few days or weeks, the latter's eyes actually seed excited as he continued, "Okay, I'll be loyal to you. To be honest, that's actually also within my expectations, because I need to cling to soone else's fat legs, you know what I an, in order to not start from the very bottom of the Mischievous Lion organization. So, are we going to sign so sort of contract or just a verbal agreent? Oh, I know, do you perhaps want to swear an Oath?"
"You're so talkative, but I like it!" Leo smiled, "And yes, you need to swear an Oath so that you won't betray or the Mischievous Lion organization."
"Okay!" Ethan nodded without any hesitation.
