”That's why we will test him,” Leo smiled in response.

”Test him?” Ethan curiously asked.

”Test me?” Elvis doubtfully asked.

Elaine, who was remaining silent, finally spoke as she said, ”Don't tell me the both of you didn't actually notice?”

”Notice what?” Ethan and Elvis asked in unison.

”Idiots, think about the Emerald Event and the Emerald Elven Battle Competition!” Elaine replied as she rolled her eyes to mock them.

Hearing Elaine's reply, a sudden realization immediately hit both Ethan and Elvis' minds. They quickly looked at each other as they both finally understood how Leo would test Elvis, whether he is really capable enough to be responsible for creating the Intelligence Department of the Mischievous Lion Guild or not.

”During the Emerald Event, Elvis would be given the responsibility to lead Lex, Virgil, and the members from the Smiling Lion group to gather as many information possible for our Mischievous Lion Guild. Their main responsibility would be to locate the location of the Magical Beast tribes that can provide us with a lot of points and a detailed report of our possible competitors for the Emerald Event,” Leo said as he took out a pen and a paper from his Storage Ring and wrote two words, 'Emerald Event' and 'Emerald Elven Battle Competition'. He then encircled the 'Emerald Event' as he continued, ”As long as we get one of the top 100 spots for the Emerald Event, it would mean that Elvis has half of the needed capability for him to become the Leader of our Intelligence Department.”

After saying that, Leo then created a line to connect the word 'Emerald Event,' to the 'Emerald Elven Battle Competition' before encircling the latter word and explaining, ”During the Emerald Elven Battle Competition, Elvis together with the others would then again gather information of our opponents. They will be responsible in providing a detailed report about the capability of our opponents, including their strengths, weaknesses, and other necessary information.”

”The placing we would then get at the end of the Emerald Elven Battle Competition would prove to us whether Elvis is really capable enough to become the Leader of the Intelligence Department or not.” Leo finished explaining. He turned to look at Ethan, Elaine, and Elvis as he asked, ”If you have any suggestions, feel free to speak,”

”To be honest, I'm amazed to the point that I don't see any problems with your plan,” Ethan expressed how he feels about Leo's plan. He explained, ”If we could indeed get one of the top 100 spots for the Emerald Event and also get one of the top 10 placing, or best even become the champion, at the end of the Emerald Elven Battle Competition through the information that Elvis provided to us during both competitions. Then I don't see any reason why Elvis shouldn't become the Leader for the Intelligence Department of the Mischievous Lion Guild. In fact, it would be regretful for us if such a responsibility is not given to him.”

At the side, Elvis nodded his head repeatedly before saying, ”Honestly speaking, if I could really achieve those things you wanted me to achieve, then I will no longer have a problem with having the responsibility of creating and leading the Intelligence Department of the Mischievous Lion Guild. Instead, I will feel honor for your trust to me in giving me such a big responsibility,”

Hearing Ethan and Elvis' response, Leo laughed before saying, ”It's decided then!”

”I will quickly call Lex and Virgil here to introduce Elvis to them and to further discuss about their plans,” Ethan said as he quickly stood up from his seat, ”So if you excuse me... I mean us,”

Ethan and Elaine quickly left to look for Lex and Virgil as both of them were needed here to finalize their current discussion. Aside from that, he also wanted to check about the current progress of the needed materials to complete the construction of the Smiling Lion Village. If there is a need to buy some more materials and other necessary stuff for the Smiling Lion Village, then it's much better to know about it now while they are still having a discussion to give a solution to such problems together with their discussion about the preparation for the Emerald Event and Emerald Elven Battle Competition. In such a way, there is no need to bring up those problems anymore during the time that they are focusing on both competitions, thus allowing them to not get distracted.

Leo can't help becoming curious after seeing Ethan and Elaine leave, but since it was already too late to stop them and that they will be returning soon after finding Lex and Virgil, he decided to take a break and talk about something else until they return.

”By the way, can you tell me more about the Emerald Event and the Emerald Elven Battle Competition,” Leo asked as he turned to look at Elvis?

”I know almost everything about those two events, so you can ask me anything,” Elvis replied.

”Okay,” Leo nodded his head, and continued, ”First tell me about the rules and regulations,”
