Chapter 123: Just continue on with the act (1/2)

Author: M_W Cancer

At this moment, Leo and the others were already sitting downstairs around the kitchen table, seemingly looking like in a meeting about something.

'Should I tell them the truth or not?'

Leo was debating in his mind about these two choices.

These people were now like a family to him, so lying to them would just sound like he doesn't trust them and appreciate then. If he also tells them the truth, what would happen next?

'Should I just tell them about the Mischievous Lion organization, then?'

The moment he speaks about it, the only thing he could do was to tell them everything.

'But, doing so would endanger the organization!'

The Mischievous Lion organization was like a hidden thorn for the Silver Kingdom. And what should be done to a thorn? Of course to remove it!

Although the majority of the things the Mischievous Lion organization had been doing was good from the moment of their establishment in Silver Kingdom, that still doesn't mean that the Silver Kingdom could just trust them and let them run about, especially since the organization was hidden in the dark. No one knows about their real strength, and no one from the Silver royal family or even from the five major Noble Households could control them.

So, the moment he told them about the truth, Angel and Elizabeth would definitely report it to their respective organization and Noble Household. Hence, he would be endangering the Mischievous Lion organization.

'What a troublesome thing!'

Actually, Leo also realized something. If only he didn't lose his cool and didn't panic immediately the moment he saw the blue flames, then this situation wouldn't have happened.

It was really unusual for him to lose himself, but today was totally different. He was already trying to move forward and had already broken one of the chains that binds him to his past. And often times, Fate would strike the moment someone felt such a feeling. Hence, he was afraid that the strike would be losing his Master.

He was already extremely familiar with that kind of situation. When he lost his parents, he was really depressed at that time, but as soon as he knew about his older brother returning, he felt joy. However, it was quickly replaced with sadness and despair once again. It was like happiness would always be followed by sadness, so he'd rather not feel any of the two.

To be honest, this was a big trauma for him. Fate was something he can't fight as it was an invisible or maybe even a non-existing entity. But one thing was for sure, Fate would just strike whether a person expects it or not.

”Leo, who was that woman?” Cassandra suddenly said, which immediately pulled Leo out of his thoughts.

”Eh... I don't know how to explain, hehehe...” Leo could only say these words since he still doesn't know how to make his way out of his current situation, ”How about let's wait for her to come down for a bit...”

Since he wasn't able to defend, then he could only pass this problem to his Master.

After a while, Olivia was finally seen going downstairs. She then walked towards the table as she observed everyone before she clasped her hand in delight.

”Eh, I wasn't informed that my disciple actually has so many women!” Olivia suddenly exclaimed in delight.

”Huh?” Everyone sounded in unison.

”Aren't all of you my disciple's women?” Olivia said seemingly doubtful, ”Of course, except for you! My discipline would definitely not pull a man in his harem, hmph!” She added as she pointed towards Alfred.

”Of course, Madam! I'm only one of his friends!” Alfred quickly added. Since this unknown woman wasn't mad at them or something, hence he quickly tried his best to get in the good books of this woman.

”Why aren't you girls responding? Are you perhaps feeling embarrassed?” Olivia said as she pulled Leo to her side, ”He might not look that way, but Leo is actually a good kid!”
