(Author's note: Chapter 70 and 71 are purposely released late due to having many plot holes. Sorry for the late update and have a HAPPY READING!)

Leo and the others finally left the Silver Bee palace after a while of talking. Finally, leaving the royal palace, he immediately went back to his home to take a rest.

It was already dusk when Leo and the other's conversation finished, and since there was nothing to do any more today, he decided to go just back home and go to sleep earlier than his usual time of sleep.

A lot of things had happened today. Aside from the ambush that had happened and discovering of the Black organization, Leo had also learned another really important piece of information. The thing that he had discovered in the past was actually incomplete, or might not really be correct.

Unknown to others though, Leo had actually seen Elizabeth's reaction awhile ago. That was what made him quickly felt that something might really be wrong with what he had concluded on his investigation. Something really important was definitely missing in his investigation. Something that will reveal the truth about what had really caused the death of his brother.

Thinking back on the information that Princess Tiana had given to him, he could already deduce some key things.

"8 years ago, the Snow Noble Household, along with their only daughter Elizabeth Snow, had willingly traveled from Snow city to Silver city to comply with the predestined marriage that was long been agreed between my parents and Elizabeth's parents. But, they were blocked by the Crystal Skull Noble Household, which had also coincidentally happened when I was filing the case at Silver city, hmmm...." Leo silently murmured to himself, seemingly thinking of something,

Suddenly, Leo stood up from his bed as he finally thought of a conclusion, "If that was the case, did I perhaps just hated the wrong person from the very beginning?"

"Ayst, I'll just leave it to Fate!" Leo said before resting back on his bed.

He had realized that thinking about such a thing without any clear evidence would be stupid since he will be arriving at nothing, no matter how much he tries to think about it. Even if he indeed arrives at a seemingly reasonable conclusion, it will still be useless because he will not believe in something without any clear investigation and evidence.

This was the rule that he had lived within those 10 years of time. No matter what sort of thing it was, he will always investigate about it before finally doing action.

.....

The next day, Leo woke up really early. The moment the sun touches its light to the tallest building in Silver city, he had also opened his eyes.

Standing up from his bed, Leo quickly went to the bathroom to take a bath. After doing all of his morning routines, he then went downstairs to eat his breakfast.

Coincidentally, the moment Leo arrived in the kitchen, Elizabeth was currently eating her breakfast all alone.

After the last night's thoughts, Leo didn't know anymore how he will treat Elizabeth. Even though the hatred was still clouding his judgment until this very moment, he was still calm enough to be able to think that she might not really be the mastermind behind his brother's death. No! She was definitely not the mastermind behind it!

However, that is still not concluded, yet...

There is still a huge chance that Elizabeth was really the mastermind behind the death of Leo's brother. After all, all the leads that they had found out had led them to her.

After eating his breakfast, Leo went to Sword and Magic to choose another mission again. The escorting mission from Lady Veronica would not reward him any points this week, so he needs to look for another mission to earn points.

This time, Leo didn't bring the girls with him. Doing so would only decrease the points that he will earn. Moreover, he would most likely be completing the mission using his Elementals, too. Hence, bringing Cassandra and Angel was fine, but bringing Elizabeth would be a bad idea since that would only reveal his secret to her, which he doesn't even know whether she would report it to her family or use it to threaten him. Whichever case she would choose, it's definitely not a good thing!

Arriving at Sword and Magic, Leo went directly to the study room. This time, Madam Silva's assistant was Evangelion, since Angel had now become his personal bodyguard.

"What type of mission would sir Leo be choosing today?" Evangelion said as soon as Leo walked inside the small study room.

"Just some miscellaneous type of mission..." Leo replied before looking for an easy mission in the Book of Mission of Sword and Magic.

After flipping a few pages, Leo finally found a mission.

Mission: 'Clean' East Sewer. Points Reward: 10 points.

After finding the mission, Leo didn't hesitate as he quickly understood the clean part of this mission. This was again the same as the West Sewer Management mission.

"Oh, this mission is really good!" Evangelion said before handing Leo the Official Seal of Acceptance for this mission.

Bidding farewell, Leo then directly went to the East Sewer Management.

Arriving at the East Sewer Management, a fat guy immediately greeted Leo. The fat guy was like Brian, with a big stomach and wearing a hat with a light stone attached on its top.

"I'm Christian, the Head of East Sewer Management! If you are here to complete a mission, then can I have the Official Seal of Acceptance about the specific mission that you had accepted?" Christian quickly introduced himself and asked for the Official Seal of Acceptance the moment he saw Leo.

Leo directly gave the Official Seal of Acceptance to the man named Christian, which the latter received and opened.

"Oh, you are here to kill the pesky Magical Beast of the East Sewer..." Christian paused before taking out a map of the whole East Sewer, and continued, "Okay then, you start from here and clean up to here! You don't need to include the sewer after the wall, since that part is the Silver Kingdom East Fortress problem. Hmph! Soldiers from that place are always useless, they can't even defend the hole of the sewer in their side from the slipping Magical Beast!" He then handed the map to Leo.

Leo just nodded his head, not minding at all about Christian's opinion about the East fortress.

The East Fortress that Christian had said was a fortress to the east side of Silver Kingdom, specifically located at the southeast of Silver City and the northwest of Green Weed city.

The East Fortress wasn't absolutely useless. The soldiers over there are just too busy defending the east side of Silver Kingdom from the Nine River Forest, hence they don't have enough time and manpower to take care of small problems like the weak Magical Beast slipping through the east sewer.

After all, the Nine River Forest is a danger zone located in the southeast of Silver Kingdom. It's a huge forest covering almost one-fourth of Silver Kingdom's territory, specifically from the north side of Green Weed city, and the east side of three cities, the White River city, Crystal Skull city, and Snow city of the far north. Powerful Magical Beast from 5 Star and above run rampant within that forest, hence the establishment of the Silver Kingdom East Fortress.

So, in conclusion, the East Fortress needed to focus all of their attention within the Nine River Forest and not in a mere small east sewer. Moreover, if a single mistake happened around Nine River Forest, then the lives of traveling or living nearby the Nine River Forest would be the cost.

"You should already know the 'clean' here is to kill, right? And that the points are 10 points for each head of a Magical Beast that you will bring to the East Sewer Management?" Christian asked.

"Yes!" Leo replied, nodding his head.

"Okay then, see you later! Just come find me after you're finished with the cleaning." Christian said, bidding farewell to Leo.

Leo immediately went to the location he was assigned to. He wanted to start as soon as possible. He had already understood how this mission works.. It was just the same as the one from the West Sewer Management.
