It didn't take long for Leo too soon received Madam Flores response from Elvis, making him smile as he said, "Goodwork, Elvis,"
"No problem, Guild Leader Leo," Elvis replied as he bowed his head by a bit.
"You can go on and continue with your work now, I'll be finishing my job here in my office," Leo said as he motioned his hand to the door of his office.
"Okay," Elvis nodded his head before making his way out of Leo's office.
As soon as Elvis left the office, Leo right after began working on all of the important paperwork that Ethan had given to him.
"This is going to be a long day of work," Leo heave a heavy sigh as he took out a piece of paper from the stack of papers by his side.
.....
It was only at night that Leo finally finished with everything.
Stretching his hands up, Leo exclaimed, "This kind of work really brings back those memories when I used to handle all the important matters of the Heart City!"
In the past, he almost always buried himself with a similar kind of work all day long. It even reached to the point that his office has become his second home. And if ever he had some free time for himself, he goes out hunting with Butler Xiao and the others of the Heart Noble Household.
It was really a fun experience while it lasted...
But unlike in the past, this time what he's doing is building his force to prepare to fight against the Gods of the Celestial World. It's really incomparable to just merely taking care of a city territory.
Nevertheless, he doesn't mind it, since this is his Fate...
He will change his Fate one day, though once he defeats all of the Gods of the Celestial World.
Leo's thoughts were instantly interrupted as Ethan walked into his office.
"Ethan?" Leo asked.
"It's now time to meet with the new members of the Mischievous Lion Guild, Guild Leader Leo," Ethan replied.
"How many times do I have to tell you that you can just call me Leo when it's just the two of us," Leo muttered as he stood up from his chair and walk to the door.
"It's still working hours, Guild Leader Leo," Ethan said with a smile.
"Suit yourself," Leo could only accept Ethan's reply helplessly. He continued, "Anyways, lead the way, Executive Ethan,"
Ethan can't help letting out a helpless chuckle at Leo calling him 'Executive Ethan'. He had really almost forgotten that Leo would always make a way to pay back what one did to him.
"Elaine, let's go," Ethan called out to his wife Elaine, who was putting on make-up.
"Coming," Elaine waved her hand, quickly storing all her make-up inside her Storage Ring. She then stood up from her chair and walked towards Ethan before the both of them hold each other's hand.
Behind the two lovebirds, Leo could only roll his eyes to express his bitterness.
Ethan and Elaine escorted Leo to a stage in front of the hotel.
The Public Market has already been closed early this afternoon to prepare for this event, specifically welcoming the new members of the Mischievous Lion Guild.
As soon as Leo arrived, he immediately saw all the Executives already waiting for him.
"How was your very first day working as a Guild Leader, Leo?" Cassandra jokingly asked. She had already heard from the others that apparently Leo is buried with mountains of work inside the office that Ethan had specifically made for him. At that time, she almost can't help herself from laughing out loud while saying, "How the mighty has fallen in his pile of work!"
Elizabeth hit Cassandra's side with her shoulder before saying, "Don't bring us down with you!"
Angel and the others nodded their heads to express that they don't want to get in trouble with Leo.
"Okay, okay, you guys really don't know how to have fun," Cassandra replied in resignation.
While the girls were talking with themselves, Chief Lago stepped forward and said, "This is really good, Leo. We now have a total of 11,000 new members in our Mischievous Lion Guild,"
"Hahaha, I can't wait to start training all of these new members like a drill sergeant," Sebastian said while laughing.
"You wish, it might even be them that will discipline you instead," Dan mockingly said.
"You..." Sebastian quickly pulled Dan's collar.
"Oh, I'm scared, Sebastian is going to kill me. Though, that would be really good since at that time I don't need to trouble myself anymore always trying to save you," Dan said while smiling mischievously.
Leo ignored Sebastian and Dan's bickering as he replied to Chief Lago, "Don't put your expectations really high up, because we can't be sure yet just how many exactly would come along with us the moment we leave Emerald Tree Kingdom,"
"I know," Chief Lago expressed his understanding.
It wasn't only Chief Lago who understood Leo's point, all the Executives of the Mischievous Lion Guild also understood what he meant.
From the moment they decided to just temporarily register the Mischievous Lion Guild in the Emerald Tree Kingdom, they already know that even if they could indeed have plenty of members, not everyone would decide to come with them on their journey.
It's only natural, and there's nothing strange about it. After all, a lot of people don't want to leave the place where they were born at. As for those who do, they are the ones who have high ambition in life and want to reach greater heights despite the huge risk that they will be facing.
"But you still miss the point here, Guild Leader Leo," Elvis can't help objecting to Leo's opinion. He continued, "Even if not all of them will come along once we leave the Emerald Tree Kingdom, but the situation right now is we are still in the Emerald Tree Kingdom. The problem we would be facing in the future should be left for the future. Let's just deal with our present problems now,"
Hearing Elvis' words, Leo, honestly, can't help to disagree, at least at the part where they should only face the future problems when that time comes. But, Elvis does still have a point in his words nonetheless. The problem about how many people will come with them the moment they leave the Emerald Tree Kingdom should indeed be handled once it arrives.
As of now, it's time to welcome the new members to the Mischievous Lion Guild.
Leo stepped onto the stage and walked to the very front. The moment he arrived, he surveyed the people who had come.
Almost all of the new members that came were unfamiliar faces. The majority of them were made up of Elves and Humans, while the minorities were Minotaurs, Centaurs, Fairies, Dwarves, Beastman, and Hybrids, the typical races of the Celestial World that live in the forest.
"Good evening, everyone," Leo greeted everyone, he continued, "I'm Guild Leader Loki, the Leader of the Mischievous Lion Guild,"
As soon as Leo finished introducing himself, the people down below him immediately started whispering with one another.
"I can't believe that the rumor is true, the Guild Leader of the Mischievous Lion Guild is indeed a young man who is merely a 1 Star Mage,"
"Yeah, if I speak about this to the others, there's no doubt that they will not believe me,"
"That's for certain, even I would not believe that a 1 Star Mage would have 9 Star Mages and even a Galaxy Mage as followers if not for me seeing it with my own eyes,"
"I wonder, who exactly is this Guild Leader Loki? Is he perhaps a son of a President of a powerful organization? An Heir of a Noble Household? or... a Prince of a powerful Human Kingdom, or even better is if he's actually a child of a Human Emperor!"
"No need to think, friend. No matter what Guild Leader Loki's real identity is, for him to have 9 Star Mages and a Galaxy Star Mage as a follower is no doubt a proof alone of how great and powerful his background is,"
Leo perked up his ears to listen closely to what everyone was talking about him. After a few minutes of listening and finally understanding of what he should be talking about right now, he continued speaking, "I know that you are really surprised of finding a mere 1 Star Mage being the Guild Leader of a Guild who has a few 9 Star Mages," he motioned his hand for Charlotte, Edward, and Chief Lago to step forward, and he then continued, "And even a Galaxy Mage," he motioned his hand for Ethan to step forward.
"This..."
"A total of three 9 Star Mages and a Galaxy Mage?! This force alone is already way beyond the force of the Pierce Noble Household! In fact, this is almost comparable to the force of the Evergreen royal family!"
"Not really, since I heard that there's only a total of 200 members of the Mischievous Lion Guild as of now, and the majority of them are even slaves that the Guild Leader had bought,"
"Still, this is a shocking revelation! The only thing that separates them from the Evergreen royal family is only a few more manpower! Once they have that, then they will be a force comparable to the Evergreen royal family!"
"It's really fortunate that they have already made it clear that they won't stay in the Emerald Tree Kingdom for long. If they really choose to permanently stay here, then the Evergreen royal family would certainly be on constant high alert, in fear that the Mischievous Lion Guild would suddenly try to dethrone them,"
"There's no doubt now that this Guild Leader Loki is someone from an Empire territory,"
