"Sounds good to me," Leo nodded his head in appreciation. In the next moment, he slowly finished the tea on his cup before he returned back to the main topic, "If this is about the Naughty Elves organization plus you have mentioned the Emerald Elven Battle Competition, then I'm guessing that you have already known that they are planning to do something, which we can easily expect is not good, in this upcoming Emerald Elven Battle Competition?"

"So you know already?" King Elfin the Fourth was a bit surprised that Leo actually knows about it. 

"I also know that they are planning to use Savage Fox Potion to increase the strength of Magical Beasts, which they have already used in the past, and I'm also suspecting that they are planning something which has to do with Elvis here," Leo added. 

"Oh, I didn't expect that your investigation has already reached this far. Just like what one should expect from a Prince of a Kingdom. It seems like this is one of the reasons why Madam Flores invited you to join this secret operation," King Elfin the Fourth nodded his head in approval to Leo, at least by a bit, as of now...

King Elfin the Fourth continued, "We have already learned about those two things that you have just mentioned,"

"About both the Savage Fox Potion and Magical Beasts; the Wolf Howl organization has already been making those potions and collecting numerous Magical Beasts even before the start of the Emerald Event. In fact, we have also discovered that some small Guilds and businesses in the Emerald Tree Kingdom have been helping them. And just at the beginning of the Emerald Event, we have also discovered a huge inflow of outsiders helping them as well,"

"Because of that, we were able to take advantage of the situation to secretly sent some of our men to infiltrate them and find out more information of what exactly they are planning to do,"

"And about Elvis," King Elfin the Fourth turned to look at Elvis before he continued, "The moment you left the Emerald Tree Kingdom, a Guild named after your famous group was established. At first, people believe that they were just impostors planning to use your group's fame to earn a lot of money. But soon, rumors started spreading that they are legitimate. It quickly caught to my attention, so I sent some of my men to investigate. And to our shocked, we soon discovered another you... or to be more precise, plenty of you,"

"Me?" Elvis asked doubtfully. 

"Yes, you! Of course, they are not really you, but rather they are just the clones of you," King Elfin the Fourth clarified. He turned to look at Leo as he quickly explained, "We have discovered that the Naughty Elves organization has created a new Magic Technology related to cloning. They are using your blood, saliva, or whatsoever and injecting them to some sort of water tanks where a clone of you would slowly be created over time,"

"I don't really understand how exactly does this new Magic Technology about cloning works. But to tell you the truth, I'm actually really interested in this new Magic Technology. Through this, there would never be any shortage of manpower anymore. Not to mention, whenever we send all of those clones in the battlefield, we can simply treat them as cannon fodder and without caring about their lives. They are simply fantastic! It's too bad though that they are being used by the wrong hands... or maybe anyone who gets their hands on this new Magic Technology would be considered as the wrong hands," King Elfin the Fourth heaves a sigh of helplessness. 

Leo and the others also agree with what King Elfin the Fourth had said. Anyone who could possess such a shocking Magic Technology would definitely not use it for good. After all, there are just so many advantages in using clones. 

What King Elfin the Fourth had just said was just one of the few examples of the clone's advantages. 

To use clones on the battlefield would be akin to having soldiers not afraid of death. And if there is something that one should fear the most in the battlefield, those are exactly the people who are not afraid of death. Such kinds of people would be capable of doing things that are far from what normal and sane people could do. Like for example, suicide attacks, infiltration, or worst, do the same exact thing that Barbara the Perfect Disguise could do. 

One Barbara is already extremely troublesome to handle, not to mention infinite numbers of them. It would be the worst nightmare for everyone in the entire Celestial World. It's not even an understatement to say that people will have the worst trust issues inside of them to the people around them, in fear that those people would turn out to be clones meant to kill them.

King Elfin the Fourth continued, "Anyways, the Naughty Elves organization still don't know that we already knew about their new Magic Technology, so they still continued making many of your clones till this date. Base on our observation, we have already discovered more than one thousand clones of Elvis, though we don't really know what exactly those clones would be used for,"

"But just a few weeks ago, we discovered that they were planning to kill you. So, I'm guessing that after killing you, they would then plan to replace you with those clones. As for what exactly they would do after that, we still don't have the exact idea about it. Maybe they want to use those clones of Elvis to kill me, which they can't do now because I already know where the real Elvis is, or maybe they just find your skills and talents convenient to use that's why they were planning of making a lot of you so as to help them like what you did to them in the past,"

"Although we don't really have any idea of what they are exactly planning to do, but if there is one thing I'm really certain about, that is the fact that those clones are definitely not meant for anything good," King Elfin the Fourth finally finished explaining.

"I can't help but also agree with what you have just said," Leo nodded his head in agreement. Slowly, a mischievous smile was formed on his face as he then asked, "So, what do you plan to do then?"

King Elfin the Fourth had already mentioned a while ago about the secret operation of the Evergreen royal family in this upcoming Emerald Elven Battle Competition. Evidently, it wasn't only the Naughty Elves organization that was planning to do something big in this upcoming Emerald Elven Battle Competition, but also the Evergreen royal family as well. 

Meaning to say, there would definitely be going to be a huge clash that will happen without the knowledge of a majority of the people living in the Emerald Tree Kingdom while the Emerald Elven Battle Competition is taking place.

"With the cooperation of the Elves Secret organization and the other trusted forces in the Emerald Tree Kingdom, there is no need to worry about what the Naughty Elves organization would do outside of the Emerald Elven Battle Competition. So, what we want you to do is to take care of the inside while we take care of the outside,"

"We have already discovered that a lot of the Naughty Elves organization's men would be participating in the Emerald Elven Battle Competition. The only problem though is that we don't know who exactly they are. Those cunning bastards... Ehem!... they would definitely have their men pretend as the men of those from the top 100 in the Emerald Event,"

"I have a question, what is their goal in participating in the Emerald Elven Battle Competition?" Angel suddenly asked. 

"You are?" King Elfin the Fourth turned to look at the beautiful woman beside Leo. 

"She's one of my women, her name is Angel," Leo introduced. 

Angel can't help giggling after hearing how Leo introduced her. Cassandra and the others would definitely die in jealousy once she tells them about this, hehehehe...

"What a beautiful name, perfectly suited for such a beautiful woman," King Elfin the Fourth complimented. 

"Thank you," Angel said with a sweet smile.

King Elfin the Fourth turned to look at Leo as he explained, "Actually, it's not that difficult to guess what their target is by participating in the Emerald Elven Battle Competition. Practically everyone who participates in the Emerald Elven Battle Competition has the same goal in mind,"

"The Emerald Tree!" Elvis suddenly exclaimed. 

"Exactly, the Emerald Tree," King Elfin the Fourth confirmed, he continued, "The Emerald Tree is what protects the Emerald Tree Kingdom from the Magical Beasts living in the Emerald Forest. It's like a Kingdom Protection Array that keeps out the Magical Beasts from attacking the Kingdom's territories. The only difference between the two is, the Kingdom Protection Array requires Mana, while the Emerald Tree requires Magical Beasts," 

"So that's the real reason why you have created the Emerald Event!" Leo finally knows the reason why the Emerald Event exists. He was a bit curious before about why the Emerald Event was invented. Was it only for entertainment purposes? Then what do they do with the Magical Beasts that were captured by the participants? Release them back to the wild? or Kill them? He just didn't bother asking Elvis about it as the reason might be something that only the Evergreen royal family knows and there was also no reason for him to bother finding out about it. The only thing that he focused on was to get as many benefits possible from both the Emerald Event and Emerald Elven Battle Competition, not find out the reason why it was invented.

"Yes," King Elfin the Fourth didn't bother hiding the truth.
