"Let's go," Leo said to Cassandra and the others who were currently training with their weapons at the side while showing expression of boredom and irritation to who else but him... Next ti, he'd definitely bring them to sowhere less dangerous, so that they can continue training even without anyone protecting them.
Charlotte and the others had already defeated the Beast Lord Storm Sparrow, so it's now ti to leave since they would eventually be bringing it back with them along with the five remaining alive 8 Star Storm Sparrows.
Honestly, he really can't believe that Charlotte had just killed three 8 Star Storm Sparrows. Does she not know that they are also worth a lot, especially if they are alive? Fortunately, she didn't turn those three 8 Star Storm Sparrows into ashes, hence they can still make use of them.
And there were also those two seriously injured 8 Star Storm Sparrows. He really hopes that they won't die along the way back to the Erald Tree Kingdom, that would be so frustrating if it really happens.
"The Storm Sparrows are finally retreating back to their Storm Sparrow Tree," Elvis said as he noticed the Storm Sparrows flying back to the Storm Sparrow Tree.
The reason for these Storm Sparrows retreating back to the Storm Sparrow Tree was because they already realized that they can't win this battle anymore as their Leader, specifically the Beast Lord Storm Sparrow, was now captured by Charlotte and the others. Aside from that, they also knew that it's much better to conserve their strength, especially with the still ongoing battle against the Treasure Beetle tribe.
.....
In the evening, all the Flyingboats of both the Mischievous Lion Guild and Elves Secret organization swiftly began taking off one by one and began traveling back to the Erald Tree Kingdom.
The reason for their quick leave this ti is exactly because they don't really want to waste any more ti as they still want to capture more Galaxy-level Magical Beast before the Erald Event is over.
They will bring this Beast Lord Storm Sparrow back to the Erald City and exchange it for so benefits from the Evergreen royal family, and then after that, they would then leave again to catch another Galaxy-level Magical Beast.
Ti is quickly running out, and more ti wasted ans less Galaxy-level Magical Beast captured.
The caged Beast Lord Storm Sparrow is currently dangling below as it was chained to the bottom of four Flyingboats just like last ti with the Beast Lord Treasure Beetle. The 8 Star Storm Sparrows, a total of five of them, were also in the sa situation as well, their cages attached to the other Flyingboats.
They were really just so huge to be on-board in the Flyingboats, that's why they can only be dangled below. Anyways, Charlotte, Elvis, Elaine, Edward, Sele, Chief Lago, and the other people with 5 Star level cultivation from both the Mischievous Lion Guild and Elves Secret Organization were assigned with different schedules to protect the cages from daring Magical Beasts.
At this mont, Leo and all the Executives of the Mischievous Lion Guild were gathered inside the eting room.
"Guild Leader Loki, here's my report about our investigation to Captain Timon," Elvis handed Leo a detailed report about Captain Timon. He added, "And this is a bit of our findings to Timor and his Night Ear Guild,"
Leo received both reports as he quickly began reading them.
His face can't help turning solemn after reading the first report about Captain Timon.
Just like what they have expected, Captain Timon is a really abusive person. Apparently, none of Captain Timon's n had been spared from his punishnt. And the majority of them had even received no less than twenty tis of punishnt after all of these years being one of Captain Timon's n. In fact, so had even died as Captain Timon wasn't able to hold back his strength. Of course, there are also many other reasons as well, like for example, they were forced to go on a mission with a very high chance of dying.
It wasn't only that, abusing his power was only considered as one of the many cris that Captain Timon had committed after all of these years of him being one of the Captains of the Elves Secret organization. He had also sold many items from the Elves Secret organization without any knowledge of Madam Flores or any higher-ups of the Elves Secret organization to so clients he had acquainted with, involving himself with a lot of illegal activities such as corruption, accepting bribery, slave trafficking, and had even attacked rchant caravans using the n of the Elves Secret organization.
Actually, it would have been alright if only Captain Timon was ordered to do all of these by the Elves Secret organization. However, that was clearly not the case. He had repeatedly committed all of these cris without any consent from the Elves Secret organization.
It's really a serious problem to find out about this because after all of those cris that Captain Timon had committed, he actually still hasn't broken the contract he had signed with the Elves Secret organization yet.
"Is there actually so kind of thod to trick the contract so that it wouldn't punish the person who broke the conditions written on it?" Leo asked everyone.
"Base on my knowledge, such a thing doesn't exist," Ethan replied. He had signed many similar contracts in the past, especially related to the military, but he had never discovered any secret thod for soone to trick the contract so that they will not be punished once they broke the conditions written on it. Unless of course if the other person who had signed the contract has voluntarily voided the contract or has already died, which should not be the case of the Elves Secret organization.
"Yeah, I've been an Information Dealer for so long, but I've yet to discover such a thing as well," Elvis supported Ethan's claim.
"Actually," Ash suddenly raised her hand.
"Yes, Ash?" Leo looked at Ash.
"There is actually a way to do that," Ash replied.
"Go on," Leo motioned his hand for Ash to continue speaking.
"If Captain Timon made another person commit all of those cris for him, then it's very possible for him not to be punished by the contract at all," Ash explained, she continued, "It's like this, words alone is not sothing the contract would instantly recognize as breaking the condition, unless of course if he reveals so secrets of the Elves Secret organization that shouldn't be revealed to anyone, which is considered as betrayal,"
"Everyone could say whatever they wanted to say, even if they say that they are going to kill Madam Flores or even the President of the entire Elves Secret organization. But words alone don't kill anyone, right?"
"In the end, the final decision to commit that cri or not completely depends on the person. So, if Captain Timon tells soone to steal items from the Elves Secret organization for him and they really choose to do it, then Captain Timon wouldn't be the one to be punished, but rather it is that person who had committed the cri as he had chosen the decision to commit the cri despite also having the choice not to do it," Ash finished explaining.
"What? You could actually do sothing like that?!" Edward said, really surprised about the secret to trick the contract.
It wasn't only Edward who was shocked, Cassandra, Elizabeth, Angel, Veronica, Charlotte, Ethan, Elaine, Chief Lago, Sele, and Elvis were also surprised as well to find out about such information.
In the past, Ash had done sothing similar to this. It's really such a selfish and cruel act, but in her current situation at that ti... No, the current situation of all the Hybrids who were slaves, choosing to do sothing wrong to make things right was sothing that they sotis have to do.
"Then this ans that those people who committed cris for Captain Timon were forced to commit those cris, right?" Ethan quickly realized sothing.
"Most likely," Leo nodded his head. He added, "Captain Timon should have sothing against those people that's why they were left with no other choice but to commit the cri for him,"
"Just how selfish and cruel is this Captain Timon?!" Cassandra exclaid furiously. Even the Commander who drove her away from the Crimson Rose Kingdom in the past wasn't as cruel as this, he at least treats all of his n depending on the contributions they have made to him. If a person contributes a lot to him, then he will take good care of that person, and if they don't, then only would he punish that person.
"This... even the mbers of the Black organization we have fought against in the past feels much kinder than Captain Timon," Elizabeth said.
"I agree," Angel agreed.
"I'll definitely recomnd Captain Timon to the Black organization if ever we et one of their mbers in the future," Veronica jokingly said.
"Nah, those mbers of the Black organization we have encountered back then in the Lionheart Kingdom were the lowest rank, that's why they weren't that corrupted yet," Ash shook her head in disagreent.
"Then we are really fortunate at that ti since we haven't t mbers of the Black organization similar to Captain Timon," Charlotte can't help saying.
"Anyways, what about Captain Timon's little brother Timor?" Cassandra asked while looking at Leo.
"Ummm..." Leo massages his chin while reading the contents of the report about Timor.
"Timor is much better than his older brother Timon, at least that is what is written in this report," Leo said. He continued, "He treats his people well, and gives them a corresponding amount of resources depending on their contributions to the Night Ear Guild. Also, he takes them to different places to train and experience more, which should be exactly what he did this ti, and he doesn't force anyone unless absolutely necessary. Though there were nurous rumors circulating about him from the n of Captain Timon that says he is a very perverted person, every beautiful woman that catches his sight would not be spared to be brought to his bed,"
Leo turned to look at Cassandra and the others as he said, "You know what that ans, right?"
"Yeah..." Cassandra and the others quickly nodded their heads in understanding. This ans that they can never reveal their appearance to Timor lest he would cause Leo so trouble.
"No worries though, because Timor is not soone that is considered as dangerous, so far... Well, we also do sothing like he does, at least not the perverted part," Leo said as he put the report about Timor on the table, he continued, "Nevertheless, we should still not let our guard down to both Captain Timon and his little brother Timor,"
Leo turned to look at Elvis as he handed to him the report about Captain Timon before saying, "Once we returned back to the Erald City, gave this report to Madam Flores. But, tell her that she shouldn't do sothing to Captain Timon yet, because we still need him for sothing, understood?"
"Yes, Guild Leader Leo," Elvis nodded his head.
"That's all for today's eting, everyone dismissed," Leo said before he turned to look at Sele who was currently sitting beside Edward, "Sele, stay for a bit, I want to hear what you have discovered,"
