Leon sighed as he comfortably sat and he just let Ollivander do as he wished. If he wanted him to be his Lord and if he really made up his mind to be his servant, then he must leave it that way because nothing will be gone on his side anyway.He knows that it will not be a burden if he will make the older man his servant, rather it will also be to his advantage because he would have the chance to control him and since Ollivander pledged to be his servant then for sure, he would be willing to do anything for Leon.Knowing how big his influence is as the leader of the tribe, Leon knows that he can use Ollivander to gain control over this isolated village as he did not have the older man under his wing. If he can make Ollivander follow what he says, then for sure the villagers will also follow what their leader wanted to do.But Leon noticed the weird gazes coming from the villagers around the place. That's why he frowned and suddenly felt uncomfortable knowing that there were a lot of e
Ollivander was sweating cold, and he was hoping that he didn’t offend Leon in any way. He was annoyed with the villagers and he thinks that it was their fault because they were too gossipy instead of doing their responsibilities at home.If Leon was not there, then he must have already punished those people because what he hates the most are those people who are trying to meddle with other people’s business instead of focusing on their own. But he doesn’t have time to take care of his constituents as of now because he still needs to attend to his lord Leo’s needs.As much as possible, he wanted to please Leon until the time that his life would not be at stake anymore. Because at this time, Leon seemed furious and they have not settled their agreement yet so it was like Ollivander’s right leg was already on the grave and with just a single mistake, he might be beheaded without any warning at all.“What do you want to do by shutting the door hard? Do you want to hide me from those villa
Leon raised an eyebrow and he immediately got interested with what Ollivander had said. If he already told him this important information early, then he didn’t need to waste his time blabbing nonsense.At this moment, Leon was only interested in things that could help him with his mission. Anything other than that will be nothing but useless and he knows that he doesn't need to pay attention to them because he only needs to focus on important matters.“You know his most trusted aides? Then why didn’t you tell me right away?” he snorted in disbelief.He can’t believe this older man. Did he just forget about it that’s why he didn’t tell him or is he really did not want to tell him about it in the first place?He was full of doubts and confusion at the same time. He doesn’t know whether to believe him or not because he might have just been fooling around again like he used to do. But he had enough of that nonsense and he only wanted nothing but truthful and useful information.“I apologi
Leon moved swiftly through the dense forest, his thoughts solely on the mission at hand. The towering trees closed in around him, their dark shadows only adding to the sense of urgency that drove him forward. He wasn’t here to enjoy the scenery or to contemplate the eerie stillness that hung in the air like a shroud. He had a purpose—a dangerous one—and his destination was near.As the trees thinned, Leon’s eyes locked onto the stronghold built into the side of a rocky hill. The structure was as unwelcoming as the man who inhabited it, with jagged stone walls that seemed to rise straight out of the earth itself. The place radiated a sense of dread, as if the very ground beneath it was holding its breath. Leon felt it too, that almost imperceptible wrongness, but he pushed it aside. He was here for one reason only: to meet Lord Rosenberg’s first trusted aide, Titus Bane.The moment he set foot near the entrance, a figure stepped out of the shadows, blocking his path. Titus Bane, know
Leon stood his ground, his eyes locked on Titus Bane as the wall of fire roared to life around him. The flames licked at the air, scorching the ground in a wide circle, but Leon didn’t flinch. His calm demeanor contrasted sharply with the blazing inferno, a testament to the resolve that had brought him this far.Bane chuckled darkly, taking pleasure in the sight before him. "You’re either too brave or too foolish," he sneered, his voice dripping with condescension. "But I suppose I'll have fun with you… because your quest is truly hopeless!" he exclaimed.Leon’s expression remained unreadable as he met Bane’s gaze. "We’ll see about that," he replied evenly. "But I’m warning you, if you don’t tell me what I came here for—"Bane cut him off with a sharp laugh, still refusing to take him seriously. "You’ve got guts, I’ll give you that. But you’ll find that it’s not in your best interest to threaten me, Leon," he snaps.With each word, Bane stepped closer, his presence towering and menaci
But Bane will not give up just like that. Hence, he created more fire to block his way. He thought that plotting these wicked tricks beforehand would give him an advantage. However, he was completely wrong about that and didn’t expect Leon to stand firmly without difficulty despite the massive heat from the fire.Bane was expecting him to slow down and heat would weaken him. But instead of flinching, Leon stands firm, because the Volcano Stone in his possession is protecting him from the intense heat. It makes Bane flustered as if he just saw an extra-ordinary human being.“How did he do that?” he mumbled under his breath. He was left dumbfounded and he didn’t even realize that Leon was fast approaching him with piercing eyes and straight eyebrows.Leon hissed as he came to him and said: “Hey, you wicked guy! Do you think your shallow tricks will work on me? Didn’t I warn you already?” he snapped with gritted teeth.He already proved his capacity in their first encounter but it looks
Seeing his opponent’s frustrated face, Leon smirked in amusement. He wonders when this man learn his lesson.He has been told not to use his usual tactics with him because they will not work out anyway but it seemed that he was so hardheaded and always refused to listen to him. Now this is what he got for being stubborn.“How often do I need to tell you to stop using petty tactics with me? Honestly, I don’t think any of them will work for me. So if you want to take my advice, you better stop wasting your time on these useless tactics and start investing with your own skills,” said Leon, whose face was tireless.He was tired of repeating himself over and over again but this man seemed a deaf person or perhaps, his mind was not working fully because he didn’t know how to comprehend even simple words.Leon was somehow disappointed. Is this how Lord Rosenberg’s loyal aides think and behave? How could they even be qualified to become his servants?“Why would I stop? Actually, I’m not yet d
After Leon got another piece of important information about Lord Rosenberg’s whereabouts, he did not waste any more time and immediately set out to find the place that Bane was referring him to.He was hoping that this new aide he was going to meet would be able to tell him what he needed. Because if he also doesn’t know the exact location of Lord Rosenberg’s secret place, it will just become another trouble and waste of time.He can’t afford to wander around and travel from one place to another knowing that his daughter is still in the enemy’s hands which means Sarah’s safety is not guaranteed so he should come and save him as fast as he could.“I hope this person knows the exact place of Lord Rosenberg’s secret place,” Leon mumbles as he is on his way to find the black castle because it was the only landmark that Bane told him.The night had started to fall, and Leon approached the Black Castle. The castle is surrounded by jagged mountains, and despite the lateness of the hour, Leon
