Charlotte really wanted to cry because she just experienced the fastest freedom of her entire life. It didn't even last for even 5 minutes, and her freedom was again in the hands of someone else, a very annoying guy on top of that too. Moreover, this time she wouldn't be able to play with him like what she did to Young Master Denver, since the Slave Contract specifically stated that; firstly, she can't hurt or harm Leo in any kind of way. Secondly, she needs to follow every order Leo makes, no matter how unreasonable or risky it was. And lastly, the part she really hated the most, her life now belongs to Leo, as in everything that also includes both her soul and body.

At the side, Leo didn't show the slightest bit that he cares about Charlotte's tearful face. Everything in this world has a price, and since she wants freedom from Commander Decker and Young Master Denver, she naturally needs to pay for the price of its cost, which in her case right now was also the same as losing her freedom once again. Anyways, his way of treating her as a slave is going to be worlds apart from Commander Decker and Young Master Denver, specifically, she could still exercise her basic form of freedom, such as freedom to speak, to wish, to want, to love, or anything else as long as she follows the three conditions written in the Slave Contract.

"Let's go downstairs," Leo said before he walked towards the exit of the prison room.

"How about him?" Charlotte can't help pointing at Young Master Denver, who was still alive and breathing, though he's obviously almost in his last breath.

"Huh? If I save him, then the contract we just signed would be invalidated, since he is going to live. Right now, the Slave Contract has basically already recognized him as nothing aside from that he's dead, that's why I was able to successfully signed a new Slave Contract with you. If you want to go back to him, then I don't mind saving him for you. But, you'll definitely keep on living an even worse life than what I can offer, and I wouldn't be saving you for the second time." Leo said, seemingly sounding nonchalant.

Hearing Leo's words, Charlotte nodded her head in understanding before quickly following behind him.

"HAAAaaa!" Finally, Young Master Denver took his last breath.

"But, what about the other people he had imprisoned? You don't have any intention of saving them?" Charlotte curiously asked. Leaving them here is the same as Leo killing them, though not personally, but they will definitely die the moment Commander Decker arrived in this place and found his son dead.

Hearing the word 'save them', the 7 people inside their respective prison cells quickly began begging for Leo to save them. Even if they would become this young man's slave, they still wouldn't mind. It's much better to become his slave than to stay in this forsaken place.

"Please save us!"

"Yes, we don't mind becoming your slave!"

"I can serve you in any way you want, as long as you save me!"

Unexpectedly, all of the other people imprisoned in this prison room were actually women. Some were young, and some were a bit mature, but the most common thing about all of them is the fact that they are all beautiful and hot, simply implying that Young Master Denver is really a lecherous and perverted man.

Well, Leo had already expected it after hearing the story of Boss Kent. Also, he has a fair share of experience with some Young Masters from different Noble Households who have almost the same character as Young Master Denver back at his Heart city when he was still in his early teens. Those Young Masters were so spoiled that they'll waste all of their parent's hard-earned money seemingly nonchalant about it just to play with girls, go drinking in taverns, play casino in the Underground World, and many more other money-wasting stuff.

Although he really doesn't give the slightest bit of care about their actions since they were basically giving him more money every time they waste their parent's hard-earned money, he can't still help himself hating them, especially thinking of the thoughts that their parent's, which he doesn't have any more at that time, worked their hardest for that money only for their sons to waste it on useless things.

Although all of the women were so pitiful to look at, Leo actually still didn't care or even show that he cared for them even a bit. He just simply kept on walking until he finally arrived in front of the door.

Seeing this, the women started begging more.

"Please, I begged of you!"

"Please have mercy!"

"I don't want to die in this place!"

"Shhh!" Leo suddenly signaled them to shut up, which they quickly did. He continued, "I'll be coming back after checking what's downstairs."

The reason why he wouldn't be freeing them yet is simply because he wasn't so stupid to just let these women run away from this place while he still has something he wanted to do, they might just unnecessarily pass that door where a Terrain Illusion spell was casted, causing Commander Decker to be alerted of some intruder.

Moreover, he also doesn't want these women to follow him while he goes downstairs because he still doesn't even have the slightest bit of idea what's down there. Maybe there are traps and such that will alert Commander Decker, so going there with only Charlotte is the best possible way.

As to how he had thought about the 3rd floor having traps; obviously, if the 3rd floor was indeed a treasure room, then traps would naturally be set in order to stop any possible intruders.

"So, wait for me inside your prison cells and also be quiet, I really hate loud people the most." Leo said as he opened the prison room's door, walked outside, before also motioning for Charlotte to quickly follow after him.

Charlotte immediately followed after as soon as she saw Leo calling for her.

.....

In front of Leo and Charlotte were 1 Earth Elemental and 2 other Wind Elementals to scout up in front.

Because Charlotte was already his slave, Leo didn't bother hiding his ability to summon Elementals anymore. At first, she was really shocked after discovering about it, but because he didn't show any intention that he will tell her anything, she just decided to keep it to herself and move on.

Moments later, they finally arrived on the 3rd floor. And fortunately, there were no traps and the likes at all, along their journey.

"Maybe Commander Decker had thought that this place is already extremely protected, so he didn't bother putting traps." Leo thought to himself.

"Maybe, indeed!" Charlotte suddenly interrupted Leo from thinking, which he quickly became shocked about since it is really out of his expectations that she could actually read minds.

"You..."

"Yes, I can read minds, at least just by a bit. It totally depends on how deep the thought is, specifically the deeper it is the less I can read and the shallower the more I can read."

"But, you are not a Mage, so how?"

"I'm actually a Mage, or more appropriately I'm called a Battle Mage, specifically a Water, Dark, and Physic Mage. The exact reason why a lot of people confuse me for a Magical Knight is that I prefer fighting with my swords all of the time. It's also not because I don't want to use Magic spells, in fact, I do always use Magic spells, it's just that a Battle Mage and Mages way of using Magic spells has a significant difference- "Charlotte wanted to keep on explaining, but Leo was quick enough to stop her with his hand.

Leo really didn't expect that Charlotte was so talkative. Also, he already learned what a Battle Mage is since teacher Marvin had thought that to them before.

Battle Mages are actually still Mages, but their difference is they don't cast Magic spells using their hands, but instead through their weapons. Although Mages can also do that, and likewise Battle Mages can also do what Mages do, they still have a significant difference. Like for example are, Battle Mages can actually only use one or at best five Elements for their entire life, and although Battle Mages has a much more powerful Magic Power compared to normal Mages, the Mages cultivation actually increases much more faster than the Battle Mages. For short, Battle Mages are still Mages, but only that they are the weaker version of the latter.

To be honest, Battle Mages are actually Magical Knight that has lost their contracted Mage, or otherwise more know as the Mage they were loyal to. Because the Magical Knights could only rely on their contracted Mages to level up in their cultivation, hence the moment the latter dies such restrictions would immediately be removed, finally giving birth to the class of Battle Mages.

Leo turned his attention to look at the big silver-colored door with some designs of dragons in front of him before he suddenly gulped down a mouthful of his saliva.

The moment he opens this silver-colored door, he would finally see for himself whether this underground dungeon was really a dark place to hide Commander Decker and Young Master Denver's dark secrets, or a place where Commander Decker hides his treasures, instead. It would depend on the former or the latter whether he would have a lot of treasures or a means to blackmail Commander Decker. Anyways, both would still have an advantageous result for him.

Turning to look at Charlotte, Leo then said, "Did you noticed anything suspicious in this silver-colored door?"

Of course, he wouldn't just forget the most important thing before opening this suspicious-looking silver-colored door.

"Unexpectedly, there is actually none..." Charlotte said in doubt. She really didn't expect that a door made in silver would actually not have any mechanism to alert its owner or something of the likes. It was just so confusing why they would even bother choosing a big silver-colored door with some curiosity inducing design for no reason at all.

"Are you sure?" Leo wanted to further confirm.

"I've already done a triple check."

Leo just simply nodded his head in reply as he put his hand up in front of the silver-colored door and right after began pushing it.

*Claaaaaaang!

*Whoooosh!
