Chapter 362: The first foundation of Leo’s Guild (1/2)
Proofreader: M_W Miss Fierce
Seeing that Leo wasn't joking at taking a step back, George and Charles can't help themselves from heaving a sigh of relief. In the past, they could only unfairly compete with Leo, as they already know that no matter what they achieve, they won't stand a chance against him. But with Leo gone in the competition now, they could finally have a chance to fight fairly for the President of the Mischievous Lion organization's position.
Unbeknownst to both of them, even if Leo doesn't accept the position of the President of the Mischievous Lion organization, they would still not have a chance to get it. Queen Olivia has already expected such a thing to happen, that's why she made Gretchen her right hand.
That was the exact reason why Leo had said that he would be supporting Gretchen because he already knew that the moment he decided to take a step back, Queen Olivia would immediately make Gretchen replace him temporarily.
”Since that's what you want, then I'll answer your questions now...” George said as he began speaking.
...
Their conversation lasted for more than an hour, as there were just so many things to talk about.
”I didn't expect that the situation was actually like this...” Leo said with a shake of his head.
After listening to George and Charles talking about the current status of Silver City and the entire Silver Kingdom, he finally understood that the Silver Kingdom right now can be described as an almost hopeless endeavor. In his opinion, even the Emperors of the Human race Empires wouldn't want to rebuild Silver Kingdom. Why? Because more than a half of the entire Silver Kingdom territory was destroyed by the Black organization using tens or so of Lesser Chaos Magic Array. In estimation, rebuilding Silver Kingdom would take a decade or so to complete.
The Snow City, Crystal Skull City, White River City, Honoris City, Will City, Williams City, Silver City, Green Weed City, Blacksmoke City, and Blue Coral City, all of those cities of the Silver Kingdom had half of their entire territory destroyed. The only territory left unaffected was the Heart City and the four Fortresses.
Right now, all the remaining Noble Households of the Silver Kingdom are trying their best to purify the Chaos Mana in each of those said cities. This was the only way remaining for them if they still want to rebuild the Silver Kingdom.
If the Chaos Mana is ignored, thinking that it would just be fine and hence they could simply build another city somewhere unaffected, then sooner or later they would find themselves facing much bigger trouble.
When he first came into contact with the Chaos Mana back then at the east sewer system, he found out that such kind of Mana likes to devour any kind of Element Mana that isn't similar to them and then use it to produce more Chaos Mana. Therefore, ignoring the Chaos Mana would end up with the Chaos Mana spreading and spreading as it keeps on eating the other Element Mana to multiply itself. In fact, the worst part is, if they really allow the Chaos Mana to continue on spreading throughout the entire territory of Silver Kingdom, it would, later on, give birth to a Chaos Elemental, a type of Natures Wrath so powerful that almost all kinds of Element Magic spells would become ineffective when fighting against it as they could simply keep on eating all those elements Magic spells thrown to them, making them even more powerful.
In the entire 50 years or so of the history of the Human race, there have only been 5 Chaos Elementals recorded. And all of those appearances have caused tremendous damage to the entire Human race. In the end, they were only able to seal those Chaos Elementals, as they were still incapable of killing them, even at this present moment.
Fortunately, the situation right now wasn't as grave as what it may seem to be, because they have him, the owner of the Fate Cube.
As long as he put even a small wisp of his own Mana in the middle of those rampaging Chaos Mana, then he would be able to slowly take control of all of those Chaos Mana and make them all disappear. But of course, he wouldn't choose to do that, since that is so wasteful. Instead, what he would do is use those Chaos Mana to aid in his cultivation... No, to aid everyone's cultivation, just like what the Human race has done after sealing those 5 Chaos Elementals.
Although the appearance of the Chaos Elementals in the past has indeed caused a tremendous amount of damage to the entire Human race, it also gave them a treasure. To be more precise, a place they called Chaos Mountain, which is a place that gives an inexhaustible source of Chaos Mana that brings an infinite amount of benefits, not only in terms of war but also in cultivating Mages.
The discovery of Chaos Mountain birthed the two powerful Human Empires of the Human race, the Dragon Horn Empire and Horizon Empire; and the 3 large sects of the Human race, the Heaven Feather Sect, the Infinite Magic Sect, and the Twisted Horn Sect.
Indeed, Leo is planning on making a Chaos Mountain, only in his case, it would be the smaller version, the Chaos Cave.
The Chaos Cave would be the very first foundation of his Guild that will help its members grow powerful and at the same time use it to attract capable people, specifically in an inconspicuous way, as he doesn't want to attract trouble.
Since Leo was planning on making a Chaos Cave, he then quickly made his way towards the location of the destroyed Silver City.
Moments later, Leo finally arrived at the place which was supposedly the location of Silver City.
