Chapter 359 Planning to leave Silver Kingdom part 1
Author: M_W Cancer
Proofreader: M_W Miss Fierce
To be honest, Leo might have the Fate Cube that allows him to summon a lot of powerful Elentals, but that is still not enough to fight against all the Gods. His unique capability was indeed powerful enough to threaten the Gods, and can also defeat them, but it was clearly impossible to defeat all of them together.
The God of Fate has already lost once in the past when he tried to fight one against many. So he obviously wouldn't want Leo to repeat such a mistake again.
This ti, the first goal was to gather people capable enough to stand by Leo's side and fight against the Gods. And a few of those candidates are already standing in front of Leo right now.
"Didn't expect that all of them will have red strings connected to ..." Leo thought inwardly. In the past, he was unable to know how a person feels about him, but right now, after his mories about the Fate Cube was unsealed, he doesn't need to worry about such a complicated matter anymore. As long as he activates the Fate Cube's ability to see the Fate Strings, he would imdiately be able to know how exactly they feel about him.
At this mont, Cassandra, Elizabeth, Angel, Veronica, Ash, and Charlotte were all in deep thoughts as they ponder within themselves on what decision they should choose. Should they stay and join Leo to fight against the Gods? Or should they just leave him and refuse such a suicidal choice?
If it was other people in Cassandra's and the other's shoes, then they would definitely not hesitate to refuse. But for them, it was a complicated matter.
They want to be with Leo, but at the sa ti, they also don't want to die.
Wait... Isn't this very similar to the situation they have just experienced back then when they have abandoned the civilians?
No, this is absolutely not the sa... or was it?
"I'm really curious about this, but why exactly do we need to fight against the Gods?" Cassandra can't help herself from asking. She was debating with herself monts ago whether to stay with Leo and fight against the Gods or not, but then she realized sothing very crucial; why would they even need to fight against the Gods?
"Indeed..." Elizabeth and the others nodded their heads to express that they were also very curious.
For Leo, who they have long known that hates troubleso things to say that he wants to fight against the Gods, he definitely has a very big reason for that.
Hearing Cassandra's question, Leo smiled as he can't help himself rembering that ti when he first talked about fighting the Gods with Commander Ava. At that ti, his mories about the Fate Cube were still sealed inside his consciousness, so when she brought up the topic that if he indeed chooses to make Levi his Beast Companion, he would then be pulled into a troubleso situation where he would have to fight against the Gods of the Celestial World. Because of that, he decided to put such thoughts to the back of his mind and choose to adapt the, "Let's wait and see plan". For him, fighting against the Gods is extrely troubleso. That's why until this present mont Levi hasn't yet beco his Beast Companion, despite that Sagittarius Sandra is already just nearby him, even right now.
However, right now, he finally knows what answer he should choose.
Fight against the Gods? Bring-it-on!
"All of you knew about the War of Races, right?"
"Yes, what about it?"
"But do you know why exactly the War of Races exists?"
Elizabeth rolled her eyes and replied seemingly like stating the obvious, "Isn't it obvious? It's because every race wants to beco the ruler..."
Seemingly like sothing suddenly ca up inside her mind, Elizabeth stopped mid-sentence as her eyes widen in shock.
"It seems like you've already guessed it correctly." Leo smiled before continuing, "All of the Gods wanted to beco the only God and rule the entire Celestial World. But, all of the Gods are immortals, that's why no matter what they do they are incapable of killing one another. Thus, they slowly manipulate their own race to start the battlefield for the War of Races. Because once their own race won the war-"
Angel suddenly interrupted Leo to finish his words, "Their goal to beco the only God of the Celestial World will also beco a reality because their own race will only view one God and no one else."
Turning to look at Angel, Leo nodded his head, "Yes, despite still having a lot of Gods, for the people of that race who won the War of Races, those Gods are nothing compared to their own God."
"This..." Cassandra, Elizabeth, Angel, Veronica, Ash, and Charlotte beca even more dumbfounded after finding out the truth.
"I know that you're still doubting my words. But a living example actually exists in front of us right now."
"Who?" Cassandra quickly asked.
"Who do you think won this war?"
"The Black organization...?" Elizabeth replied.
Leo shook his head and said, "Who do you think is the one behind the Black organization?"
"The Dark God!" Angel exclaid as she finally understood what Leo ant. The Black organization has indeed won this war, but now that Leo has brought up this topic, she quickly realized that the Black organization was an organization made up of Humans, which is what the Dark God wanted to destroy. Hence, logically saying, the Black organization didn't really win this war, but rather it has lost, and that the real winner was the Dark God.
What Angel has thought about was exactly what Reinhart ant. Neither the black side nor the white side won this war, but rather the Gods who control the chessboard.
"Yes, it's the Gods that won this war, neither us nor the Black organization, because, at the end of the day, we are both Humans. The only difference is we are fighting different sides of the board." Leo nodded his head. He then returned back to his question, "Now that you know about this, would you join or not? Don't worry, even if you refuse, no one will bla you. To care about your own life is not a mistake, the mistake is you being weak and incapable of saving others."
Leo purposely ntioned, 'Being weak and incapable of saving others', because he wants to trigger up their emotion inside of them. He already knows what happened yesterday when they abandoned the civilians from Elizabeth as they were talking about that topic prior to arriving here, so he wants to use that to trigger them. For him, he believes that it's only when soone's emotion is being triggered by sothing important for them would they really be able to bring out the real thoughts inside their minds.
As for why he wants to bring out the real thoughts inside their minds, it's simply because he doesn't want anyone to join him only to end up leaving because they suddenly changed their minds, maybe due to being scared and similar kinds of emotions. It's much better to cut such variables while it's still early, rather than cut it when they are already in the crucial tis. He doesn't want for such a variable to exist, as it might just affect his goals negatively one day.
"Leo, how about you let us know first whether you are really confident about this choice you've made or not? It's not that we are against you doing this or we are feeling fearful, but rather I just believe that since they didn't knock on our doors yet, we should not knock on theirs first, right?" Veronica, who chooses to remain silent till now, expressed her thoughts.
"Indeed, we should not try courting death." Ash agreed with Veronica.
"How about this, we will talk about this when the situation finally cos on our way?" Charlotte suggested.
Cassandra, Elizabeth, and Angel wanted to say sothing, but they imdiately saw Leo shaking his head, "They already know that I'm here. Don't forget, Barbara has escaped. Think about it, a Vice-president of the Black organization was actually sent out to co to a territory deed as a backward place. Her appearance here only ans there is sothing really important in this place that requires such a high-ranking person to co and look. And what do you think can Silver Kingdom offer to make the Black organization make such a move? No need for any argunt, it's obvious that they ca for . So, I'm planning to leave Silver Kingdom first before they decide to send more people to co here and kill . I wouldn't want to bring trouble to this place and end up affecting everyone I care about."
Hearing Leo's words, Cassandra stepped forward and asked, "What would you do after that?"
Leo smiled mischievously and replied, "I will spread my na outside of Silver Kingdom to attract their attention away from this place. In turn, it will allow Master Olivia to safely develop this territory."
"No, that ans you will be in great danger." Elizabeth quickly refused.
Hearing Elizabeth's refusal, Leo chuckled and said, "You care about my safety, yet you didn't even answer my question yet. So, what exactly is your choice? Will you join or not?"
"I will join!" Cassandra said in determination, "You still owe a promise to return to what was rightfully mine. So if I decide to back out now, who would I look for help?"
Elizabeth crossed her arms before letting out a cold harrumph and saying, "Hmph! You already told to give you a chance, and I agreed, so why would I not join now?"
Angel smiled and said, "I need your help to save soone. But right now you are still incapable of doing that. So I will need to stick by your side to protect you until then."
"Sir Leo, aren't you misunderstanding sothing here? We already agreed to beco your woman, so wherever our man goes, we also follow!" Veronica said while hugging a pillow.
"We have already agreed before. You provide us a safe sanctuary, and we, in return, provide you with safety." Ash reminded Leo of their deal back in the Twilight Forest.
"So it's my turn now? Well, do I even have a choice right now? I'm his slave, so wherever the Master goes, the slave will also follow." Charlotte pretended to sigh out of helplessness, but deep in her mind right now, she also wants to follow Leo, wherever he goes...
Hearing Cassandra and the other's response, Leo can't help himself from smiling. The first group of people that will help him was finally ford. Oh, wait, he had forgotten that there are still more...
