Chapter 604 - Orders

"Let's talk about orders a little bit, shall we?"

"What are you—" Theo wanted to play ignorant a bit longer, but Leonardo had already stopped him.

"Okay, okay. This one is a bit serious, so please listen to me first." Leonardo. "I don't care if you're playing ignorant or not, but I want to warn you what you may face in the future by holding the order.

"First of all, what are orders? It's the element that keeps the world going. Moonlight, Moon, Lightning, Wind, Fire, and so on.. These are the variables.

"When they're disturbed, there will be a chance of this place collapsing. I am not very sure about this myself, so I can only tell you what that World Class Monster said to me in the past.

"He told me to make sure that the orders were maintained or a catastrophe might occur. No one can tell whether Earth will be affected or this place. It's random. All we know is that we are going to regret it.

"Anyway, that's why I want to talk about orders. I don't care what you do with your order but maintain the balance. The simple way to do it is by not disrupting it at all.

"You see what's going on here?" Leonardo pointed at the laboratory.

Theo shook his head calmly.

"Some scientists are researching Goblin Genes. It's a taboo topic because of one particular reason. If you add another race's gene to your body, what do you think will happen?"

"Isn't it going to be.." Theo stopped as he contemplated for a moment. He soon realized his answer didn't match with what Leonardo said.

Seeing his confused look, Leonardo continued. "It's related to the orders. According to the monster, every living being is qualified to get an order, even in the past where we haven't found this place.

"I don't know if you have connected the dots, but the proofs are there. All those heroes in the past that were shown as someone stronger than a normal human.. They all had orders. Unfortunately, I don't understand a single thing about this, so no one has more explanation about it." Leonardo sighed.

"Is researching Order banned?"

"Not really. You may not know about it, but everything related to orders is banned and hidden."

"Most who learn about the orders are Mythical Rank Experts. Some are lucky to find it sooner like you, so many Mythical Rank Experts agree to keep it a secret and not spread the information around.

"Just like this place, what if you find the fact that order can strengthen you? Researchers will flock to this topic and eventually combine two orders like what they did to the goblins here.

"I said it earlier. Every living being is qualified to get an order. If that Goblin King continued, he would have gotten the order, albeit not one. He had several genes in his body, so he could get more than one.

"If that happened, the disruption would happen and boom.." Leonardo sighed. "It's gonna be a headache."

"I kinda understand that." Theo nodded with a serious expression.

"To be honest, if all those World Class Monsters attack the entire world, humans will surely become extinct, so we don't dare to provoke them too much.

"Instead of being their enemies, we become their friends and ensure the orders from the human's sneakiness. Just like this one..

"That's why you calling me here is really helpful. With this place alone, I can stop those who are related to this. And do some stuff here and there.. Boom." Leonardo chuckled, not continuing his explanation.

However, Theo could understand how chaotic the situation would be.

"Anyway, that's all. I just want to warn you not to mess with the orders. If you encounter some reputable and strong Mythical Rank Experts who know about orders, they will surely warn you the same.

"I mean, the World Class Monster may kill you, but that's the least of our worries because the Earth will also face some problems.

"At the same time, you shouldn't let others know about your order. They can even use it to mess you up or sell your information to those who want to know the truth or get the order themselves." Leonardo raised his hands as if he could foresee trouble coming.

Theo looked down and nodded. "I understand the warning. Are you going to tell me anything about the order itself?"

"Not really." Leonardo shrugged. "That's your responsibility to research about it. All I need to do is to make sure you pick your own answer in the future. After all, what I know about orders may be different from what you find in the future. Everyone's order is different after all."

"I see." Theo crossed his arms and squinted his eyes.

"Anyway, our conversation has made you admit that you have an order." Leonardo smirked as if he had managed to trap his own grandchild.

Theo shrugged. "All I know is the fact you were not spouting lies. Since you were warning me seriously, it's better to avoid any misunderstanding. So, why should I hide it anymore?"

"Tsk. You're not fun." Leonardo pouted playfully.

"I just know when I should act and when I shouldn't." Theo rolled his eyes.

"Right? Anyway, you should watch what will be happening in a few days. You're going to like it." Leonardo chuckled. "I'm going to teach that kid who was rude to you a lesson he would never forget."

"I didn't ask you though."

"It's fine. It looks like petty revenge, but you will realize my action later."

"Well, I don't really care about it." Theo shrugged. "I am just afraid that you're overdoing it and making the relationship between you and the pope sour.. I don't want to be the reason for that."

"No worries. He can understand as long as I say I dealt with the World Class Monster for him and protected the saintess. Easy." Leonardo winked playfully.

"Whatever."

"Anyway, you should start packing those things." Leonardo pointed at the devices and papers. "I am going to send Marzio here after this to get all the information in this place. Although you're taking those things, I will bring the corpses, body parts and other stuff, okay?"

Theo smiled.. "Okay."
