”Each participant could only participate in one game each, so assign your teams where they are good at. In the first three games, we would be eliminating twenty-five teams in total, while only fifteen teams in the fourth game, so your team doesn't need to rush to eliminate everyone in the first game of the Emerald Elven Battle Competition. It is best if your team would choose to eliminate the secret members of the Naughty Elves organization without letting them easily notice that we are specifically targeting them. At that time, once they notice something is wrong, it would be too late for them to try and fix the problem,” King Elfin the Fourth suggested.

”Okay, I understand everything. But let me get this thing clear first; you don't want the entire Mischievous Lion Guild to help you deal with the Naughty Elves organization and only want our team that participates in the Emerald Elven Battle Competition to help you, is that correct? And also, you want us to kill everyone even if they turned out to be innocent?” Leo can't help himself from asking.

After listening to what King Elfin the Fourth wanted them to do, he quickly realized something. The plan only needed the deployment of ten people, which all have 1 Star level cultivation and are exactly the needed number of people to form a team to participate in the Emerald Elven Battle Competition.

It's not really like he has a problem with King Elfin the Fourth's plan. In fact, the least people and the weaker they are from the Mischievous Lion Guild that would participate in this secret operation of the Evergreen royal family, the better it would be for them. In such a way, there would be no huge losses for the Mischievous Lion Guild.

Even though the people that would participate in the Emerald Elven Battle Competition would include him and some of his women, specifically important people for the Mischievous Lion Guild, this would still not be a problem as they could at least take care of themselves well.

However, he can't still help but be curious to know if King Elfin the Fourth really doesn't want him to let the Executives of the Mischievous Lion Guild to help them. After all, they are in the 6 Star to Galaxy level, which could provide them a lot of help.

And as for the second question, he just wanted to know the exact reason why they decided to let them kill the participants randomly. Is it because it's much better for some people to die than to let many people die? Or is it because the Emerald Tree is much more important than the death of a few people? No matter what answer it is though, his decision to participate in this secret operation of the Evergreen royal family would still remain the same. He's simply the executioner who has a common goal as them to fight against the Naughty Elves organization, so whatever reason they have in mind, it doesn't affect him nor does it mean he has the same opinion as them for choosing such decision.

”No need,” King Elfin the Fourth shook his head, he continued, ”From the very beginning, the Naughty Elves organization is the problem of the Elf race. We shouldn't have really involved the Human race in this fight at all, but since Madam Flores has suggested you to join, that's why I considered accepting her proposal,”

”And yes, I want you to kill the participants without caring about whether they are innocent or not. This is simply because, as a King, I have to see the bigger picture. As for the smaller pictures, those problems are the responsibilities of the people under me, so they are the ones at fault for not being able to solve it,”

”The people living in the Emerald Tree Kingdom are really fortunate to have you, Your Majesty, as their King and ruler,” Leo praised, he explained, ”Back in the place I lived, which is called Silver Kingdom in the past, our King, King Erskine, was such a disappointment. He made his territory so complicated with a lot of power struggles internally,”

”That's why external problems, such as the Black organization, were able to easily infiltrate us. Though I couldn't really blame King Erskine as well, as all of his children had expressed to him that they don't want to rule the territory he had worked really hard in his entire life while at the same time also calling it trash and a waste of time. If you were King Erskine, it wouldn't be strange for you to also find yourself in the same situation as him,” Leo said before shaking his head.

The Second Prince, Edson, and the Third Prince, Edmon, of the Silver Kingdom, after breaking through to the Galaxy level, immediately expressed their desire to leave the Silver Kingdom to pursue a higher cultivation level. While the First Prince, Edward, on the other hand, although was born to become the next King of the Silver Kingdom, was helping the Fourth Prince, Ethan, who also desired the same thing as Prince Edson and Prince Edmon, to replace him as the next King of the Silver Kingdom, which in the end failed miserably because Prince Ethan broke through to become a Galaxy Mage even before the Prince Edward could achieve it.

Any father, who had used everything he has, including his life, to build his greatest legacy, the Silver Kingdom, would lose his path after knowing such a truth.

That's why he really can't blame King Erskine for becoming a disappointing ruler of the Silver Kingdom. But likewise, he also couldn't blame his children as well, as they only wanted to pursue the life that they really wanted to achieve. Simply put, no one could be blamed since each one of them simply desired something different from one other.

”Since we have unexpectedly arrived at this topic, then I guess it's okay for me to ask; are you really sure that's what really happened to Erskine Silver?” King Elfin the Fourth suddenly asked.

”What else? As far as we know, none of the Silver royal family were members of the Black organization, so there's really no need for them to destroy the Silver Kingdom. So, that's the only reason I could think about,” Leo paused before continuing, ”Maybe there is actually one since I didn't really get to meet King Erskine even after the Silver royal family was dethroned by us,”
