Chapter 305 How to avoid the Black organization's trap

Along the way to meet up with Elizabeth and the others, Leo, Cassandra, and Charlotte only saw nothing aside from some weak sewer Magical Beast, which they quickly killed before continuing moving.

After twenty minutes or so of continuous walking, they finally saw the silhouette of Elizabeth and the others, currently hiding underneath the shade of the exit of the east sewer, still waiting for the rescue to arrive. Although it is actually possible for them to leave now, considering its only one step forward to get out of Silver City, but since the walls were just up above their heads and with no cover to hide once they leave, they could only choose to wait until the Snow Noble Household, or more specifically Patriarch Vincent Snow, arrives.

”Leo!” Elizabeth waved her hands the moment she saw Leo walking towards them.

”How was it? Did you discover anything?” Veronica quickly asked.

”We have...” Leo nodded his head in reply. He then turned to look at Ethan and continued, ”Apparently, the Black organization has planted a trap underneath the Silver city, specifically in the place where your Silver royal family has hidden the large Mana stones to activate the Kingdom Protection Array in the past. Over there, we have found hundreds of this,”

Leo right after took out a Chaos stone from his Storage Ring and showed it to everyone, ”Chaos stones...”

”That is...” Ethan, Princess Elaine, and Queen Triana were immediately shocked the moment they saw the Chaos stone in Leo's hand.

”So the entire Silver city right now is basically sitting on a cushion of needles?” Ethan said in disbelief.

”Yes!” Leo nodded, ”And base on how they did in the past, I'm assuming that the south, west, and north sewer also has a trap planted underneath.”

”They are really going all out just to win this war!” Princess Elaine shook her head worryingly.

”Then, we have to quickly warn the others about this, especially your father!” Queen Triana immediately suggested.

It was very obvious to see that although Queen Triana had betrayed her husband, she still cares a lot about his life.

Truth be told, the only reason why Queen Triana has thought of betraying her husband was to make him realize that all of his actions until now was foolish. No matter what they do in this war, they are already destined to lose. It was useless, so she hopes for him to stop and just surrender. But, it seems like her intention it didn't work, at all.

Hearing Queen Triana's suggestion though, Leo simply shook his head to disagree, ”This is already the second time that the Black organization has sneaked into the sewer system without anyone detecting them despite having the Sewer Management in place, not to mention this time the Silver royal family should be on extremely high alert, so how did they still successfully sneaked in? I'm assuming that there is someone helping them from the inside, someone powerful to be exact, a member of the Silver royal family, maybe... or maybe just someone that commands great power to silence the Sewer Management. Therefore, if we indeed report that we have found out about their trap, they might just decide to activate it ahead of schedule. And with how unprepared we currently are, there is no telling who would win the war anymore...”

Ethan also nodded his head in agreement as he added, ”Right now, we are also assuming that father is no longer our father. That person that Leo has said to be helping the Black organization might just turn out to be him. So, even if we indeed secretly informed him, it would still result in the same as what Leo had thought.”

”So, what do you suggest we should do, then? Although we are fighting against your father right now, he's still your father nonetheless. And you are just assuming that he's fake. You don't even have enough evidence to prove that just yet, hence informing him might not turn out to be what you both are currently thinking right now.” Queen Triana argued back.

”Older brother, I think that mother is right...” Princess Elaine joined in the conversation, ”What if we don't inform father and then he turned to be our real father? Doesn't that mean we failed to save our own father? That... I just can't bring myself to see that!”

Seeing that the three from the Silver royal family was arguing about what they should do, Leo finally stepped in and said, ”If you really believe that King Erskine is a secret member of the Black Organization and that he's fake, then I can only shake my head in pity of you guys.”

Ethan, Princess Elaine, and Queen Triana immediately stopped arguing as they turned to look at Leo.

Seeing this, Leo continued, ”Did you hear what General Wales had said to us before? Right now, King Erskine is currently having tea with Patriarch Walter Skull and Patriarch Simon Honoris after he had given the order of all the Silver Divison and Gold Division to be sent out to look everywhere for our whereabouts. If he really was a part of the Black organization, it would be the most stupidest decision to order his soldiers to turn the entire Silver city upside down right now, as it would surely reveal what the Black organization is secretly planning to do.”
