The news of hundreds of men of Timor's Night Ear Guild and tens of men from the rear-line teams being killed by one of the Executives of the Mischievous Lion Guild, Executive Iasiah, along with two of their teams, the Frost Lion team, and Ghost Lion team, soon reached the ears of Captain Timon at the front-line teams. 

"What did you say?!" Captain Timon immediately asked in anger after hearing the report.

Officer Kuwerd began trembling in fear while kneeling on the ground, afraid that Captain Timon would kill him if he speaks any further.

"Captain Timon, sir..." Vice-Captain Uriah quickly called out while his eyes were darting around the surrounding as if to signal Captain Timon that a lot of people are now looking at him, including Captain Iles and a few of his front-line teams. At the same time, he was also doing this to distract Captain Timon's attention from Officer Kuwerd in order to save him

"I know," Captain Timon pushed Vice-Captain Uriah away as he then flew straight towards the direction of Guild Leader Loki, intending to ask the Guild Leader of the Mischievous Lion Guild for an explanation for why one of his Executives had killed his men and the men of his little brother Timor. 

"Are you okay, Vice-Captain Uriah, sir," Officer Kuwerd put his hand forward to help Vice-Captain Uriah to stand up from the ground. 

Vice-Captain Uriah took Officer Kuwerd's hand as he replied, "Thank you,"

"Don't mention it, Vice-Captain Uriah, sir. We are both on the same boat, so we should help each other," Officer Kuwerd said. 

"Yeah... but don't worry, I'll definitely pull this boat together to a calm ocean one day," Vice-Captain Uriah said as he stared at the back of Captain Timon, "Just wait for a bit, it would definitely be soon,"

"For our dead brothers," Officer Kuwerd said while clenching his fist to the point it started to bleed. 

"Yes, for our dead brothers who were unjustly killed and forced to die by Captain Timon," Vice-Captain Uriah patted Officer Kuwerd's shoulder. With a smile on his face, he changed the topic, "Anyways, let's handle the fight here so that no more brothers of ours would die,"

"Okay, Vice-Captain Uriah, sir," Officer Kuwerd nodded his head.

.....

"Guild Leader Loki!" Captain Timon exclaimed as soon as he landed in front of the young man currently sitting comfortably on a wooden chair with his deep and cold eyes staring solemnly on the battlefield in front. 

"Yes, Captain Timon? Do you need anything?" Leo calmly turned to look at Captain Timon who's eyes are staring daggers at him.

"Guild Leader Loki, give me an explanation why you have killed my men and my younger brother Timor's men?!" Captain Timon didn't bother beating around the bush as he went straight to the point. 

"What do you mean, your men and your little brother Timor's men?" Leo asked while raising one of his brows.

"You...!" Captain Timon wasn't able to hold back anymore as he charged straight towards Guild Leader Loki. But in the next moment, a sharp sword appeared in front of his neck, causing it to start bleeding.

"Show respect, you insolent fool!" Iasiah warned with his sword pointing at Captain Timon's neck. 

"Executive Iasiah!" Captain Timon exclaimed in anger as his eyes remain solemn while looking straight at Iasiah despite of the fact that if the latter wished it to, he could easily take his life away from him. 

"Captain Timon, don't think that I won't dare gauge that eyes of yours if you don't show any respect to our Guild Leader Loki," Iasiah threatened while slowly moving his sword to the right eye of Captain Timon, ready to gauge out his eyes anytime.

"Tch, a threat from such a punny Guild like your Mischievous Lion Guild doesn't work on me, Executive Iasiah. If you really wish to kill me right now, then I assure you that you'd be facing the wrath of the Elves Secret organization afterwards," Captain Timon sneered. 

"Are you really sure?" Leo asked, sounding really doubtful. If he didn't receive the letter given to him by Madam Flores yesterday, then he would have definitely think twice about offending Captain Timon. But thinking of scaring him now using the name of the Elves Secret organization doesn't work on him anymore if the threat came out from Captain Timon's mouth.

"Don't forget, Guild Leader Loki, I'm one of the Captains of the Elves Secret organization! With my status alone, even the Guild Leader of the Red Fist Guild, Guild Leader Orcborg, would show respect to me!" Captain Timon confidently proclaimed. 

Seeing such an arrogant attitude of Captain Timon, Iasiah can't help smiling in mockery. If only Captain Timon knew about the content of the letter that Leo had informed them about this morning, he would definitely not be acting this arrogant. In fact, he might even dare to lick Leo's shoes or become his chair just so that he can satisfy him. Such a sight would have definitely brought a lot of humor to everyone. Unfortunately, Leo has already informed them not to reveal any information about that as they want to see the real character of Captain Timon. 

It seems like Captain Timon really has no idea that the Elves Secret organization is already planning to make him pay for all the crimes he had committed.

Leo clasped both of his hands together before resting his head on top as he said with a mischievous smile on his face, "Is that so? Then what do you think will happened if I tell the Elves Secret organization that you abuse your power by bringing your little brother Timor here with us despite of the fact that this operation was supposedly only a cooperation between the Mischievous Lion Guild and the Elves Secret organization with no mention of any Night Ear Guild?"

Captain Timon's face immediately turned ugly after hearing Guild Leader Loki's words. 

"Not only that, you even dared to use your men... No, I mean the men of the Elves Secret organization, to help your little brother Timor earn some benefits in this operation. Though unfortunately, it failed miserably since I sent Iasiah to cause them trouble," 

Captain Timon started becoming nervous as he found out that his plan has been revealed easily by Guild Leader Loki. 

"You see, Captain Timon, I might be much younger than you, much weaker than you, and has less experienced than you. But don't you ever think that I'm stupider than you. Do you really think that you can just crossover my line that easily as if I'm blind and can't see what you are really doing?"

"Captain Timon, let me ask you this question; if you really just wanted your younger brother Timor to gain more experience by bringing him here, then why did you also brought over a thousand of his own men? Does he really need that many people just to protect him, huh? Or is it because he's a coward or a weakling that he can't survive without that many people to protect him?"

" I..." Captain Timon really found himself unable to answer such a question. Indeed, what Guild Leader Loki has said is correct; if he had only thought of wanting to let his little brother Timor gain more experience by bringing him here, then just simply bringing with him ten to twenty members of the Night Ear Guild would have been enough. However, that wasn't what he was aiming to do from the start. In truth, what he really aimed to do is for the Night Ear Guild to make a profit from this operation.

With a dark expression on his face, Leo said, "Captain Timon, only a fool would believe that you have brought him here to gain more experience. And unfortunately, I'm not that fool. So, if you don't want to escalate this matter even further, then I suggest that you simply return back to your position and complete the task that I gave to you... or maybe, just complete the task that the Elves Secret organization has given to you, do we have an agreement here?"

Gritting his teeth furiously, Captain Timon replied, "Yes, Guild Leader Loki," 

"Good," Leo nodded his head as he then turned around to looked at the battlefield in front again. He soon added with a threatening tone in his voice, "By the way, if you are thinking of revenge, I recommend that you do it once we return back to the Emerald Tree Kingdom. If you really choose to do it here, believe me, you and your little brother Timor and his entire Night Ear Guild would soon become fertilizers of this place. You can take what I did to your men and your little brother Timor's men as an example,"

"And before leaving, take this as a souvenir with you," Leo said before tossing a bunch of Storage Rings to Captain Timon. Inside of those Storage Rings were the first batch of people that Iasiah and both the Frost Lion team and Ghost Lion team had killed. He really didn't understand why Iasiah brought him such a disgusting and gruesome gift before, but now he finally understood that it was actually for him to give to Captain Timon. 

What a really 'kind-hearted' person...

As soon as Captain Timon looked at the content inside the Storage Ring, his face immediately turned dreadful. He can't help staring at Guild Leader Loki in anger, but he quickly changed his expression in the next second as he right after saw the tip of Iasiah's sword still pointing at his right eye. 

"I'll definitely remember this, Guild Leader Loki," Captain Timon said before turning around. As he makes his way to leave, he added, "Be sure to start cleaning your neck now, because I will definitely be coming for your head soon,"

"What a funny guy," Leo said before turning to looked at Iasiah, "If you were given a chance to fight against Captain Timon, who do you think will win?"

"I assure you that Captain Timon will never be able to wake up from his bed ever again," Iasiah replied. 

"Good, then I want you to do exactly that once we finished getting all of the information we needed from him," Leo ordered. 

"You can consider it done, Guild Leader Loki," Iasiah nodded his head in affirmation.
