Chapter 561 - Comments

"Hahahaha!" Leonardo laughed out loud when he watched the scene.

"This.." Sheira gulped down while scratching her head. She had been bombarding Leonardo with questions and got her answer from Veilo and Ignazio's conversation.

It turned out everything was Theo's plan. Even she couldn't help but feel goosebumps. "Sir Leonardo, I still don't understand one thing. Why did he mention they need to return to the dirt castle? If they insisted on following Theo's words, he would have been caught and expelled instead of Felice."

Leonardo made a smug smile and opened his mouth. "You know.. I have been living with Theo for three months in order to teach him as a part of the contract. It's gonna last for one and a half years by the way. But that's not important.

"What matters is that every week Theo and I have a strategy war. We simply try to defeat each other using our own strategy." Leonardo closed his eyes, remembering those days. "And do you know our record?"

"Is it possible to disclose it to us?" Sheira asked politely.

"It's fine. Out of thirteen weeks, I lost twice."

"Twice.." Sheira sucked a cold breath. If an ignorant person heard this statement, they would think Theo wasn't a challenge. However, everything would change if they knew Leonardo's reputation.

"To defeat the War Saint two times out of thirteen matches.. And he's been training with you for only three months." Sheira's face became pale as she perfectly understood how crazy that statement was.

"I won't say anything about his strategies and tricks, so it's your job to figure it out. Anyway, he's good." Leonardo laughed. "I hope he can achieve forty percent win rates after one and a half years."

"Forty percent. That's quite a high hurdle.." Sheira made a weird smile. Leonardo was one of the best strategists in the world. To win four out of ten fights was already an achievement that made him desired by all influences around the world. And if they nurtured his abilities even further, he might become Leonardo.

The best part was the fact Leonardo had stated that Theo wasn't a person of their War God Family, allowing them to invite Theo.

"Still, you may not be able to connect the dots with this statement, but I am going to say this one thing." Leonardo slammed the table while glaring at the camera. "He's my grandson. That's the one thing you need to remember."

".." Sheira tilted her head in confusion, not understanding why Leonardo said the fact.

Little did she know, this statement made the world know that if they tried to harm him instead of inviting him, they would face Leonardo's wrath.

..

In the Apostolic Palace.

Enrica and her master, the pope, had been watching this competition.

The pope had white hair and a long white robe that covered his entire body.

He couldn't help but chuckle when he heard Leonardo's last statement. "Look at this guy. No wonder he came to me to get my notebook back then."

"Ehm.. Teacher?" Enrica furrowed her eyebrows. "Are you trying.."

"No. All I can say is that Theo and I are incompatible. So, we won't be inviting him to this place. However, I can still see the kindness in his eyes. His method is quite questionable, but it doesn't mean one can't befriend him.

"As long as you're careful, he's a good friend to have. That's all I can say for now.. He is a pitiful child." The pope shook his head helplessly. "Either way, I will see what I can do since I believe he will bring a big change to this world."

Enrica turned to him and furrowed her eyebrows. "What do you mean?"

"Just a little bit of oracle." The pope smiled.

"Hmm?" Enrica tilted her head. "Well, I am just helping my friend."

"Ah, that child." The pope nodded. "Just don't forget that you're helping her with her love story. Don't destroy stuff or kill monsters unless it's necessary."

"Yes."

..

In the Griffith Family.

A muscular old man was watching the competition and furrowed his eyebrows. His hair had all gone and his face was filled with wrinkles. Still, his sharp eyes could make one shiver.

He looked at another old man beside him. Unlike him, the old man had white hair and deep blue eyes.

"Why didn't we know anything about this kid, Alan?" The muscular man's eyes released killing intent.

"I don't know. I am afraid this is their work." Alan shook his head helplessly. "I have reviewed the proof sent by them and he seems to have developed hatred for the Griffith Family. Well, his parents have been staying here this whole time, so.."

"Ray and Valerie?" The muscular man pinched the bridge of his nose. "I need all the information about this kid."

"There's not much information about him. I am suspecting that those two have been hiding this kid's power."

"We need to get him to our side."

"It's currently impossible to do that. All countries are still laughing at us for letting this kid go or you can say, due to Ray and Valerie's actions. Also, we're still fighting those mercenaries. With all these situations, we need to face the War God Family to grab the kid, I don't think we will succeed."

The man fell silent for a moment. "What's about Nella? What is she doing right now?"

"Those two are nurturing her right now because she has the highest talent out of her peers. She may be able to reach Ray's footsteps, but the chance is quite low." Alan paused for a moment and asked, "Should we have Nella approach him? I have heard the two seem to have a good relationship.

"If necessary, I can replace some of her memories to show extreme affections while sending some younger generations in disguise of missions. They can then kidnap him. It will be best if those two can have a kid as well. We will make sure he has absolute obedience toward the Griffith Family.. I promise I won't make another mistake like the previous kid.

"Well, that's my idea. I haven't done anything since you're the former head of the Griffith Family, our current strongest expert. You're in charge of this matter."

"No. Those two have been creating all this mess while approaching some elders. I am afraid some have joined them. We will lower their guards first and do this plan. After getting both of them and his kid, the Griffith Family will return to its prime." The muscular old man made an evil smirk.

Alan sighed. "Well, you are the boss. I just want to warn you that my memory manipulation isn't that effective to a Supreme Rank Expert, let alone a Mythical Rank Expert.. If you want to move, you need to hurry."
