The reason why Leo was looking for Elvis was because of that so-called Naughty Elves organization.

Commander Vargas had mentioned that the Naughty Elves organization and the Black organization are similar and that the only difference between the two is they serve different Gods, the former serves the Sun Elf God, while the latter serves the Dark God.

Nevertheless, both of them are still considered as his enemy. That's why he wants to know more information about them. In such a way, once he encountered them, he would know what to do.

It didn't take that long for him to find Elvis, who was currently making a map of the Smiling Lion Village. Surprisingly though, the map he was creating wasn't the same as how the Smiling Lion Village looks right now, but rather what it would be like in the future.

"I'm guessing that this is Ethan's plan for the Smiling Lion Village?" Leo asked as soon as he arrived in front of Elvis.

"Yes," Elvis nodded his head, and continued, "We have discussed a while ago about where we should put the infrastructures that you have planned to construct in the Smiling Lion Village, and this is the result."

"The Public Market would be right after the south gate, then further to the north of the Public Market, specifically the entire middle, would be the hotels, then behind the hotels would be the Executives Residents. Beside the Public Market would be the Craftsman Street, and beside the Executive Residents would be the Magical Beast Center. And lastly, at the four sides of the wall are the small barracks," Elvis explained.

"I do appreciate your effort in making the future map of the Smiling Lion Village. But unfortunately, it seems like you would be needing a much more bigger paper than this," Leo said as he shook his head in pity. The drawing of the map was really great and detailed, and most importantly it was also almost finished as well. Unfortunately, they would be expanding their territory soon, so a much more bigger map would be needed.

"Do you perhaps need me to make it much more detailed? Then, I suggest we make it into a three-dimensional model, though it would require more time to finish," Elvis replied.

"Oh, that's indeed great! A three-dimensional model would be perfect for my taste," Leo nodded his head to express that he agrees with Elvis' suggestion. In the next moment though, he shook his head before saying, "But, that is not what I meant to say. The reason why you would be needing a much bigger map is because we would be expanding the territory of the Mischievous Lion Guild soon,"

"Oh, so you've decided to register yourself and the Mischievous Lion Guild permanently in Emerald Tree Kingdom?" Elvis nodded his head in understanding.

"No, it's because I've talked with Commander Vargas a while ago," Leo said as to correct Elvis. After saying that, he finally decided to talk about the main topic, "By the way, Commander Vargas told me about you. He said that you went into hiding because of an accident with an evil organization called Naughty Elves organization. If it's alright with you, I would like to know more about this Naughty Elves organization."

Hearing Mister Loki's words, Elvis can't help shaking his head helplessly. It seems like Mister Loki has found out about his real identity.

"Please don't misunderstand me, Mister Loki. I didn't hide my real identity from you because of an ulterior motive, I simply don't want more people to know about it. You can say, I want to forget about that part of my life," Elvis said before he sat down on his chair and motioning for Leo to also sit down.

Leo sat down on the chair as he perked up his ears to listen closely.

"You see, in the past, there used to exist a level 9 Copper rank Guild in the Emerald Tree Kingdom called, Little Naughty Elves Guild. It was a Guild founded by a Dark Elf named Darius," Elvis said as he began reminiscing about the past, "Darius was a man with principles and honor. He has achieved many great things ever since he founded his Guild, which causes a lot of people to really admire him and decided to join his Little Naughty Elves Guild, including me. But no one knows, behind the Little Naughty Elves Guild was actually the evil organization called, Naughty Elves organization,"

"At that time, the Naughty Elves organization was basically still an unfamiliar name for the Elves race of the Emerald Tree Kingdom. In fact, we only heard rumors about the Naughty Elves organization from other Elves territory, and even those rumors were not really enough proof to prove that they indeed exist. That's why no one was able to associate the Little Naughty Elves Guild with the Naughty Elves organization. Not to mention, there is a great man like Darius leading the Little Naughty Elves Guild. Therefore, it's very hard to compare an evil organization to an honorable Guild."

"With such a cover-up, the Little Naughty Elves Guild continued to exist until eventually it broke through and become the first-ever independent Silver rank Guild to ever exist in the Emerald Tree Kingdom. At that time, everyone broke into loud cheers and excitement, saying that the Little Naughty Elves Guild would pave the road for the independent Guild in the Emerald Tree Kingdom or even to the other Elves territories."

"Actually, that's exactly what the Little Naughty Elves Guild did. They paved the road for the other independent Guild in the Emerald Tree Kingdom, helping them rise and become strong. In fact, some Guild had even begun branching out to the other Elves territories. You could say, it was the golden ages for the independent Guilds of the Emerald Tree Kingdom since a lot of them reached Silver rank."

"However, there was a condition for the Little Naughty Elves Guild to help those independent Guild. And that is they will not hesitate to help the Little Naughty Elves Guild for a single time. Of course, with such conditions and being ignorant of the fact that the Little Naughty Elves Guild is actually part of the Naughty Elves organization, everyone decided to agree with the condition."

"Slowly, as the power of the Little Naughty Elves Guild grows, their ambition also becomes more apparent for everyone to see. And because of that, the Evergreen royal family and the Noble Households in the Emerald Tree Kingdom started suppressing them in fear that a day might come that the Little Naughty Elves Guild would start a war in the Emerald Tree Kingdom."

"Do you remember the blueprints that I've sold to you back then?" Elvis paused to ask Mister Loki a question.

"Yes, what about it?" Leo curiously replied.

"Darius told me that he would be needing those blueprints for deterrence against the Noble Households of the Emerald Tree Kingdom, explaining that the Noble Households are getting more and more outrageous to the point that they are eliminating some of the Little Naughty Elves Guild core branches in the Emerald Tree Kingdom to steal our property and resources. He said that they were jealous of us because we have become more powerful than them," Elvis can't help laughing in self-mockery before saying, "I, who was really ignorant and oblivious about the real purpose of those blueprints, had of course stupidly complied with the order,"

"I continued making those blueprints for a long period of time, completely unaware that Darius had actually been using those blueprints to destroy those Noble Households."

Bang!

Elvis suddenly punched the table in front before saying, "Because of me, a lot of innocent Elves were killed and a few Noble Households were completely razed to the ground, causing them to no longer exist to this date. I... I foolishly trusted such an evil man, allowing him to slowly conquer the Emerald Tree Kingdom."

"It wasn't only me. Those independent Guild were also used by Darius using the agreement that they have signed in the past, forcefully making all of them help him in his conquest. Those independent Guilds really regretted their decision of trusting Darius. They also can't believe that they have foolishly trusted such an evil man,"

"When I finally found out about the truth, it... it was already too late... King Elfin the Third has already been killed by the Naughty Elves organization. The greatest King of the Emerald Tree Kingdom of all time, the person who created the Emerald Event and the Emerald Elven Battle Competition, the man who raises up the Emerald Tree Kingdom to a prosperous era, had died, and it was because of me! Because I've made a blueprint of the castle of the Evergreen royal family, allowing the Naughty Elves organization to successfully assassinate King Elfin the Third."

"Right after assassinating King Elfin the Third, Darius immediately became the new King of the Emerald Tree Kingdom and quickly changing the name of the Little Naughty Elves Guild into its real owners' name, Naughty Elves organization. I, along with a few others, were also congratulated in front of the Elves of the Emerald Tree Kingdom along with the crowning of Darius,"

"But, I decided to immediately leave the Little Naughty Elves Guild after the coronation day for Darius. Even during my departure, I still blindly trusted Darius, thinking that the main reason why he killed King Elfin the Third and become the new King of the Emerald Tree Kingdom was because they pushed him to a corner... No, to be more precise, I choose to believe that reason rather than the real reason because I know that I would never be able to accept myself anymore knowing that I helped the Naughty Elves organization killed hundreds of thousands of innocent Elves and conquer the Emerald Tree Kingdom,"

"Unsurprisingly, along my journey to leave the Emerald Tree Kingdom, I was surrounded by members of the Naughty Elves organization. They told me that if I wanted to live, the only way is to join their evil organization," Elvis smiled helplessly, "I still value my life above all else, so I can only helplessly agree with them, but before I could sign the contract, Prince Elfin the Fourth along with the soldiers of the Evergreen Magical Knight Division came to save me,"
