Talent Swallowing System

Chapter 259 Holy Angel

“It’s been a while, Captain Valerie.”

Leo replied with a cold look.

It was his habit to have a cold and nonchalant look when meeting others who were not his family and friends.

“You can sit.”

Seeing that Valerie was still standing, Leo asked her to sit.

“Sir Leo, thank you for helping us get one more healing angel to our organizations.”

Valerie sat on a chair and thanked Leo.

“I have to thank Captain Valeri for saving my sister by offering a place for her when surrounded by the other families.”

Leo shook his head and thanked her as he continued, “Moreover, you have to reveal the name of your organization before everyone. I am sorry for that.”

“It’s alright, Sir Leo. We are anyway about to reveal our identity in Phirie City to nurture the future healers in the city,” Valerie replied.

Without wasting time, she asked, “Is there anything I can do for Sir Leo?”

“Since you are a captain, you can communicate with your leader, right?”

Leo was not the type to beat around the bush as he directly asked her whether she had the power to communicate to contact her leader.

“Yes. As long as it is important and urgent, I can communicate with her.”_.

“Good. There is something I needed to talk about with your leader. Can you connect a video call to her?”

Leo nodded and asked her.

“Sure; however, the equipment to communicate with the headquarters and the leader was in our squad building. If you don’t mind, I can take you there.”

“Let’s go.”

They only exchanged a few lines and soon left Ryan’s house.

On the way to the Graceful Swans squad building,

‘What?’

‘Why did she bow to him?’

?[0)??? The masked woman from before was shocked to see her mighty captain bow to a young man.

‘Who is he exactly? And who is Ashely that even made my ruthless captain so respectful?’

‘More importantly, how can he get access to talk to the leader of the ‘Order of the healing angels’ so easily?’

The leader of her secret organization was more powerful than the city leaders, and in fact, she could be considered one of the core pillars of their humanity in case of worldly threats.

Therefore, she was shocked to see how a rank 7 hero not only met her captain but could also talk with the mighty leader of the organization so easily.

‘Vice, do you know who he is?’

Her head was filled with question marks, and she asked the vice-captain Freya, standing beside her.

‘Haha…you are just like me back when I first met Sir Leo.’

Frey laughed a little and answered, ‘You know about the Holy Angel of our organization, right?’

‘Yes.’

The masked woman nodded and replied in a low voice, ‘Who doesn’t know the Holy Angel in the organization? With a simple touch, she can heal all the injuries and there were even rumours that she could bring the dead back to life if she uses her talent as long as a minute doesn’t pass after their death.’

‘The Holy Angel’s name is Ashely and he is her finance.’

Frey continued with a slight smile, ‘It’s not a rumour that she revived someone and the person she brought back to life was none other than Sir Leo. It was the first and the last time the Holy Angel used her special talent to bring back to life.’

‘What? Holy Angel’s name is Ashley? I didn’t know until now.’

The masked woman was shocked and asked, ‘Then how did she end up getting engaged with a rank 7 hero? Isn’t it like a toad swallowing a swan?’

Leo chose his hero strength as rank 7 for others to appear as he didn’t want everyone even to think he was the Talent Swallowing Hero.

Hence, the masked woman thought Leo was not a good match for their Holy Angel, who was about to become a supreme-ranked hero.

‘It’s because he was the one who saved her from becoming a slave and it was because of her, he died.’

Frey had done her research after meeting Leo for the first time as she had the same questions in her head, just like the masked woman.

‘What? Holy angel was about to become a slave? Why do I feel like I am living under a rock until now?’

The masked woman felt she knew enough about her organization; however, she only realized there was so much she didn’t know.

‘Don’t worry. I didn’t even know about it until a year back. So, there is no need to feel like that because you will learn more about the organization as your contribution to the organization increases.’

‘Oh’

After hearing Freya’s words, the masked woman felt a little better and looked at Leo in a completely different light.

….

Soon, Leo and Valerie reached their squad’s residence building and entered the communication room.

Except for Freya, Julia and others didn’t enter the communication room.

‘Swoosh’

Soon, a huge projection of a woman in her fifties appeared before them, and as soon as it appeared, the woman asked, “Valerie, is there anything….”

“Little Leo, you finally called your mother-in-law. Ashley was worried about you.”

Amidst her words, she saw Leo and hurriedly changed her words before speaking to Leo.

“Please say sorry to her on my behalf. As you already know, I have to….”

“I know. She was just worried that something might happen to you in the process.”

The old woman didn’t let Leo finish his words and nodded.

“Why don’t you let me speak with her for a moment.”

With a slight smile, Leo asked, hoping to speak with his fiancee, who was willing to die for him.

Even though Leo felt bad for leaving her alone, he had to do what he had started, and it would be dangerous for her to travel with him. So, her mother didn’t allow her to travel with Leo, and Leo voted for it.

“You should have called just a day earlier. She is in the process of becoming a supreme-ranked Holy Angel.”

However, Leo ran out of luck as he could not talk to his fiancee.

“It looks like I have run of luck.”

Leo shook his head and replied, “For now, let’s talk about the main reason I contacted you.”

Soon, Leo became serious as he decided to talk about the plan he had devised before revealing his identity to Ryan and Julia.

“Valerie, can you leave the room for a moment?”

Seeing that serious look on Leo’s face, Leader Maisy asked Captain Valerie to leave.

“Yes, leader.”

Valerie bowed to the projection and was about to leave when Leo stopped her.

“I need her to hear it as she will be playing a huge role.”

Leo informed the Leader Maisy and made her stay in the room.

“Okay.”

Leader Maisy nodded and said to Valerie, “You heard him.”

“The city leader Theodore is dead. He was killed by the Talent Swallowing Hero.”

Soon, Leo informed the leader Maisy about the death of city leader Theodore, surprising Captain Valerie.

“So, you…no, the Talent Swallowing Hero wants us to take over the Phirie city. Am I correct?”

On the other hand, Leader Maisy intently looked at Leo before asking him.
