Chapter 292: The Snow Noble Household’s plan (1/2)
Unlike the last time, because they were only moving in a straight line, it only took less than a day for Leo and the others to finally arrive at Heart city.
At this moment, Levi and Vox were already with them since Leo had told them to meet up at Hundred Hills. Both of the little ones had used their sense of smell to trace Leo's location.
”Young Master!” Butler Xiao greeted Leo the moment he entered the manor.
”Butler Xiao, why didn't I saw you and the others back then when I arrived in Heart city?” Leo can't help asking.
”I was coping up with work the entire week in the City Hall, managing everything that the Mischievous Blue Sword Alliance needed for this ongoing war. Headguard Kevin was extremely busy with the preparation to defend the Heart city while everyone else was busy away to fight against the Black organization at the Southern Fortress. Fatty Ben was busy gathering the supply for logistics and gathering important information. And lastly, Van was busy managing the financial status of Heart city after the treasury was nearly emptied out by your Master Olivia in order to upgrade and build new infrastructures for defense, expand land, and to quicken the development of the Heart city in terms of business, industrial, agriculture, and military.”
”Oh,” Leo nodded in understanding before quickly changing to the main topic, ”Pass a message to everyone, I need them gathered here in 10 minutes.”
”What for Young Master Leo?” Butler Xiao curiously asked.
”I need everyone's help to infiltrate the Silver city!”
”With only you and them?” Butler Xiao turned to look at the others.
”It's a long story.”
”Okay!” Butler Xiao didn't bother asking anymore as he quickly left the manor to gather Headguard Kevin, Fatty Ben, and Van.
Seeing Butler Xiao leave, Leo then turned to look at everyone, ”You guys can begin with the plan I've told you about, while the rest of us will be leaving the moment I finish with everything here.” He then looked at Elizabeth's direction and said, ”Elizabeth, I need you to pass a message to the Snow Noble Household, requesting for help to save Veronica.”
Everyone nodded their heads before making their way out of the manor, leaving only Cassandra, Elizabeth, Angel, Ash, and Charlotte, Ethan, and Princess Elaine with Leo.
Leo walked towards a cage with a Mail Bird inside, opened the cage, and pass the Mail Bird to Elizabeth, ”Use this Mail Bird to pass the message.”
Elizabeth nodded her head before quickly writing a message about Leo's plan and then taking out an item with her father's smell.
The Mail Bird then sniffed the item before flying off to look for Vincent Snow with the letter attached on its feet.
Unbeknownst to almost everyone not part of the Snow Noble Household, excluding everyone here, Elizabeth's father, Vincent Snow, actually didn't go away towards the Ice Mountain. He had indeed traveled towards the Ice Tundra, but then he made a secret U-turn to go back to Silver Kingdom. Right this moment, he is currently hiding himself in the Nine River Forest along with the 50 Flyingboats and those people that were mentioned before to have left the Snow city, waiting for the perfect opportunity for him to appear.
Leo had just found out about this information when they were traveling to Heart city.
From the very beginning of this war, there was actually no such plan from the Snow Noble Household about leaving the Silver Kingdom or whatsoever. All of it was only a plot to confuse everybody else's.
Revealing the information of the Snow Noble Household being a part of the Snow Clan was just an excuse to gather the Honoris Noble Household and Skull Noble Household in the Snow city without raising any suspicion from the spies of the Silver royal family and the Black organization. Although they indeed were members of the Snow Clan, Vincent Snow has actually long cut off their relationship in the past decades or so, therefore there is absolutely no way for him to return to them anymore, even if he wanted to. Rather, the actual plan was to take over the Silver Kingdom in order to establish a new ruler.
However, the moment they saw that the Mischievous Lion organization was the one that stands the best chance to take over the Silver Kingdom, not to mention they are also a good choice to become the new rulers, the Snow Noble Household along with Honoris Noble Household and Skull Noble Household quickly changed their plan to help them instead. That's why they let Elizabeth and Veronica stay in Heart city without them worrying about anything. Simply put, they have already decided to help the Mischievous Lion organization from the very beginning of this war.
As members of the Five Major Noble Households, they of course long already knew about the unfortunate state of the Silver Kingdom under the kingship of the Silver royal family. The Silver Kingdom was so poor, so disorganized, so weak, and the power struggle was a lot worse than what Princess Elaine had imagined it to be. It was still a battle between City Rulers against Noble Households, but it includes both the weak and the strong, and along with their dozens of branches. What's, even more, worst is, it is getting bigger and bigger as the days go by. All of those battles though was happening in the dark of the Silver Kingdom. In their opinions, even without the appearance of the Mischievous Lion organization, it wouldn't have taken that long for a civil war to start in Silver Kingdom. That's why they wanted to replace the Silver royal family.
