Meanwhile, far on the ground below, Leo observed the battle closely, looking for where trouble would unexpectedly strike him.
There is no need for him to really pay close attention to Charlotte and the others fighting against the Beast Lord Storm Sparrow. He is very confident that they would be able to successfully capture it.
What he's mainly worried about right now is the ongoing battle against the Storm Sparrows.
Just now, he had already noticed plenty of 7 Star Storm Sparrows arriving and joining in the battlefield with tens of 6 Star Storm Sparrows following behind them.
As of now, they only have a few people with a cultivation level above the 7 Star level. Including Iasiah and Nightingale, there are only the two Captains of the Elves Secret organization, which brings to a total of four people.
Not only that, they only have Elvis and the three Vice-Captains of the Elves Secret organization who are in the 6 Star level, with only dozens of people in the 5 Star level from both the Mischievous Lion Guild and Elves Secret organization. And as for the ten Griffins, they are now starting to be at the disadvantage as the sky becomes packed with Storm Sparrows.
With such a few number, it's next to impossible for them to handle the increasing numbers of Storm Sparrows joining in the battlefield.
Although they have the numerical advantage against the Storm Sparrow tribe right now, it still doesn't really provide them that much of an advantage since they are aerial Magical Beasts.
The Storm Sparrows could just simply keep on using their advantage to fly up in the air and use both their Wind Element Power and Lightning Element Power to attack their target, while at the same time dodging from the continuous barrage of Magic spells.
If they really want to attack the Storm Sparrows, then they could only do that by either using range weapons or Magic spells. Only a few people are in possession of range weapons right now, so the majority of others could only wait for a Storm Sparrow to land on the ground and fight it. But once the Storm Sparrow flies back up again, then they can only helplessly wait for a chance for it to land on the ground another time or be quick enough to cast a Magic spell to attack it before it can attack them.
Not to mention, it wouldn't be long for even more Storm Sparrows to arrive at the battlefield.
It's pretty obvious already that their advantage is now slowly losing effect the longer the fight goes on.
Their only chance of turning this battle to their favor is by defeating the Beast Lord Storm Sparrow, which would then allow Charlotte and the others to join the battlefield, and also lower the morale of the Storm Sparrows.
But that would obviously take a bit more time to complete. As of now, they need to buy Charlotte and the others enough time. And in order to achieve that, they need to prevent any trouble from happening, which is exactly what Leo is doing right now.
Even with the presence of Ash, Nightingale, and the Captains and Vice-Captains of the Elves Secret organization, it's still impossible to cover everything on the battlefield, especially considering the fact that there are over 20,000 men.
"Everyone, don't stick with each other so closely, you are preventing the others from attacking!"
"You can also divide into different groups so as to lure the Storm Sparrows into thinking that you are an easy target!"
"Rear-line teams, don't attack those Storm Sparrows farther at the back, focus on those closest to us!"
All of a sudden, at the peripheral vision of Leo, he noticed a new group of people joining the rear-line teams from the forest. They were secretly slipping in through the assistance of Captain Timon's men positioned at the rear-line teams.
"Captain Timon's little brother Timor is really not a trustworthy person," Leo said with a shake of his head. Just a while ago, Timor had said that he would be going along with all of his men from the Night Ear Guild into a different location. But here he sees him now, trying to take advantage of the Mischievous Lion Guild and Elves Secret organization against the Storm Sparrow tribe.
Leo quickly turned to look at Elvis at his side as he said, "Call out for Iasiah and both the Frost Lion team and Ghost Lion team, now!"
"Yes, Guild Leader Loki!" Elvis replied as he immediately left to find Iasiah who should be close by Cassandra and the others right now.
"By the way, be sure to bring Cassandra and the others as well," Leo quickly added. He's worried that it wouldn't be safe leaving Cassandra and the others without Iasiah and both the Frost Lion team and Ghost Lion team around to protect them.
After seeing Elvis leave, Leo then turned to look at Timor again who was still trying to sneak the members of his Night Ear Guild slowly to the rear-line teams of Captain Timon.
"Timor-Timor-Timor, you are really leaving me with no other choice but to give you a hard time," Leo thought inwardly. He quickly added, "And as for your older brother Timon, just he waits, he'll definitely be paying five times the consequences of thinking that he could just easily crossover my line,"
It doesn't need a smart person to easily guess that Captain Timon is helping his little brother Timor again right now.
If Captain Timon didn't order his men to help his little brother Timor slip in the formation of the rear-line teams, then those people nearby, specifically Captain Iles' men who are positioned at the rear-line teams, would have been able to easily notice the members of Night Ear Guild slipping in their formation.
"Basing on the numbers of men of Captain Timon's rear line teams right now, then Timon should have been slipping in his men from the very beginning of the battle," Leo thought.
In the position of the rear-line teams, Captain Timon has assigned a total of two teams, the first team has a total of 1,000 men, and the second team has a total of 1,500 men. While at the front-line teams, he has assigned a total of three teams, the first team has a total of 1,000 men, the second team has a total of 1,000 men as well, while the third team has a total of 500 men only.
But as of now, at the location of Captain Timon's men at the rear-line teams, there are close to 3,500 men, an addition of close to 1,000 men, despite the fact that there are still 2,500 men at his front-line teams, implying that there were none of his men from his front-line teams that had retreated to his rear-line teams. This also shows that Timor has been slipping in his men for a long period of time now, which most likely from the very beginning of the battle.
If only he wasn't sharp enough to notice this huge increase in numbers of Captain Timon's rear-line teams compared to the men of Captain Iles in his rear-line teams, then it would have been really difficult for him to have noticed Timor and his Night Ear Guild.
"Guild Leader Loki, everyone is here now," Elvis quickly reported.
"Guild Leader Loki!" Iasiah called out the moment he arrived along with both the Frost Lion team and Ghost Lion team.
"Good," Leo nodded his head. He then pointed towards the direction of Captain Timon's rear-line teams as he said, "See those people over there slipping in through the rear-line teams of Captain Timon? Kill all of them without any mercy! I don't care if they are from the Elves Secret organization or from the Night Ear Guild. Don't leave any of those people alive. As for those that had already slipped in, leave them for now,"
It's not actually impossible to differentiate the men from the Elves Secret organization and the Night Ear Guild that had already successfully slipped inside the formation of the rear-line teams of Captain Timon.
However, eliminating all the members of the Night Ear Guild wasn't his main intention right now.
What he really intended to do is to simply make it seem like Iasiah had accidentally thought that those people that were slipping in were outsiders and in order to avoid them from causing any trouble to their fight against the Storm Sparrow tribe, they killed all of them.
As for how he would handle Captain Timon after doing this? That would be very easy. Not a big problem, at all...
"Yes, Guild Leader Loki," Iasiah nodded his head in affirmation and didn't bother to ask.
Iasiah turned around and called out all the members of both the Frost Lion team and Ghost Lion team as he then began informing them of what Guild Leader Loki wanted them to do. After he finished informing them, they turned around and prepared to leave.
But before they could leave, Elvis suddenly motioned his hand to make them stop as he then turned to look at Leo and asked worriedly, "I don't really mean to question your decision, Guild Leader Loki, but are you really sure about doing this?"
Elvis was really worried that this might cause them to offend the Elves Secret organization. After all, the letter had only mentioned Captain Timon. So, they shouldn't involve his men unless really necessary.
"Don't worry, I know exactly what I'm doing," Leo assured Elvis that there is no problem. He looked at Iasiah and said, "Proceed with the task. I'll handle what will happen afterwards,"
Of course, he understands clearly that he shouldn't involve any of the men of Captain Timon unless necessary. In fact, that's exactly what he is doing right now; he's only killing those people who are helping Captain Timon abuse his power.
Is there actually something wrong with killing them?
Even if those people were only forced to do that, it still doesn't change the fact that they are involved in Captain Timon abusing his power.
They are clearly aware that their actions are wrong from the very beginning. And in fact, they are also given a choice, which is to follow and not be punished or to not follow and be punished by Captain Timon.
Their deaths are simply the consequences of them being cowards in face of Captain Timon and choosing the wrong side to follow.
He also understands clearly that he really can't blame any of them for being cowards in face of Captain Timon. But the same logic also applies to him as well, they can't blame him for mercilessly killing all of them for helping Captain Timon commit the crime.
Sometimes, one should pay the price of every action they make, especially in committing a crime, even if they have a very reasonable excuse for them to do that.
Although there could also be a time when they could be forgiven for doing something like that. But unfortunately, it is not today, because he also intended to cause fear to Captain Timon's men so that they would learn to stand up for themselves. In such a way, the influence of Captain Timon to his men would slowly but surely decline, until eventually none of his men would follow him anymore.
"Yes, Guild Leader Loki!"
Iasiah along with both the Frost Lion team and Ghost Lion team, finally left to execute their task.
