The Cold-Blooded Sword Expert
Mayor's Castle

Over the course of the night, Leo was still thinking about a figure named Raven. I don't know why she wanted to meet this kid so much. 

How not? Since Raven was affiliated with a Stealth Brigade organization, it was clear she knew the dark world in detail. He still wanted to find out who the leader of the Verva Order was that got his family killed.

Luvria, Kael, the rest of Leo still seem to think less of it. Come to think of it, she should meet with Raven is through Iris. Iris still has an unresolved relationship with Raven. However, the Leo feared that Raven ignored all circumstances such as the killing of the Viscount and planned other politics to carry out his plan.

It seems to make quite a lot of sense. Given that the group members are dark organizations, they must act carefully. So it is very close to the possibility that Raven will forget Iris who is still alive and does not care about her.

The thing is, Raven's good name-frying, Leo is pretty sure that Raven won't accept. Not only about Raven itself, but also about Stealth Brigade directly that makes Raven must be responsible.

Iris was also still alive and was very afraid that Iris would report to everyone. So also do not rule out the possibility of Raven will come by itself.

When viewed from the circumstances that Leo passes, Leo must be careful. He still thinks that Raven is a manipulative figure. So most likely of all he thought, Iris was in danger because it still had something to do with Raven, yet Raven would not intervene directly. Unless he's going to use a certain strategy!

Leo will wait for the game.

He thought one night about a situation that even he did not think of at all. It was as if the flowing water that Leo followed by chance. However, Leo also has to choose which flow is very good for him.

The morning had come, Leo had a time to meet with Galen or the mayor, or the Count of the city of Little Pear. Leo was looking forward to all this. Where he would get a great advantage that he had not thought of before.

Because it is a little far away, Leo is no longer on foot. Moreover, conditions like this Leo just invite Hime as an alchemist. While Hime is also not used to walking a little distance away.  Leo himself is also very used to it.

Using a horse carriage, Leo will move towards the mayor's castle which is in the middle of Little Pear city. Place the square that held a festival the other day.

Speaking of the festival, the news of the Count's attempted assassination and the Viscount massacre still seemed to look warm. The city is still trying to investigate all that and strengthen the government because they think the Stealth Brigade is still moving. Not only that, some adventurers were also given missions by guild masters to help the city as well.

This news seemed to have been heard to the king within three days. Surprisingly, whereas in general, the people from Little Pear city would take a week to head for the royal capital.

No wonder, it usually sends messages so fast it uses a bird. Most steady when using a flying beast spirit that is also very profitable and will fly quickly to inform an information when it is so far away.

Coming back to Leo, Leo looked so calm. Moreover, Hime who seemed so happy because he would get an honor from the mayor directly for helping him. In addition, he also brought the rest of the potion that was left 4 and was carried by Hime. Well, who knows if there are parties who work behind the kingdom such as General, city minister.

However, on the other hand, Leo still remembers a warrior chief whose son Leo killed. Leo still remembered clearly the son of the warrior chief. Merely, he had no interest in meeting the chief warrior who bounty himself.

“Why nervous?” Leo looked at Hime questioningly.

“Newly this time I entered into the noble castle. Even if it's just the mayor. Besides, I also got an honorary degree from the city directly.” Hime looked so happy in the carriage.

“Thank you sir, this is five silver coins for you.” Leo then gave one silver coin to the owner of the horse carriage.

The horse carriage owner looked so happy. However he felt bad and this looked too much. So he said, “I'm sorry sir, but one silver coin is enough for me.”

“Take the change.”

Leo waved his hand without looking back. Currently he and Hime were in front of a gate about three meters high with some guards who seemed to be much more numerous than before.

The owner of the horse carriage was truly overjoyed. It is seen that Leo's attitude is indifferent, but the owner of the horse carriage looks very enthusiastic and immediately thanked Leo who did not look at him.

Some of the soldiers who saw the arrival of Leo and also Hime. It seemed that they were really very happy as they were both guests of honor who were invited directly by the mayor.

They knew the two people in front of them. A young man who became a shield for the mayor without hesitation, and the other was the mayor's helper figure while dying.

“Greetings sir, I am the head warrior assigned to pick you up in person actually. It's just, you've already headed here first. So, forgive me sir.” Said a man in his forty years while bowing his body.

“Head warrior??” Leo stared cynically at the soldier's head. The father Leo killed his son. Only, Leo felt that this person was not at all the father of the young man that Leo killed.

“I'm sorry, I became the head soldier recently. The old chief resigned after his son was killed. So, maybe I have not been as famous as the previous warrior head.”

Leo nodded. He understood that the previous chief of the soldiers resigned after his son was killed. Moreover, he gulped roughly that the murderer was.

“Please enter sir and miss. Mayor Galen is waiting for you.”

Leo and Hime stared at each other, before nodding at each other and entering into the gate that was open to them.

Upon entering, Leo himself was slightly stunned. The mayor's castle with a fountain in front of it makes a beautiful decoration. Some buildings are so distinctive with a garden beside it. This is just a mayor's castle. What if it was a kingdom? Leo could not imagine it.

As he enters, it is seen he is received by a group of soldiers and servants who take him to the main room. He was quite stunned when the mayor's castle furniture was quite beautiful.

Sent off, Leo has arrived at the main hall. It was seen that the mayor was sitting on a chair with such a bright face.

“Welcome my guest. I'm waiting for all of you. Sorry for not picking you up directly.”
