The discussion went back and forth— it was tough but it was worth it for Leonardo as he finally obtained a piece of land to call his own.

In mere moments, the documents and the Luan Dynasty's stamp seal signed Leonardo's ownership of a 3,000 sq.km surface area with the Beast Claw mountain range at its center.

Leonardo left the Disciplinary Committee Estate quite satisfied, yet it could be said that the mere act of being escorted into the estate and leaving on the same day, intact at that, was enough to deter and offset many of the conspiracies aimed his way.

Even though the matters of the 'deal' between Memento Mori and Greenheart City with Leonardo as the spokesperson didn't go public, Leonardo thought he might as well start his preparations early.

Blaire gaped in naked disbelief at Leonardo who waltzed his way into the main streets in front of the Magistrate Manor as though the earlier episode was of little to no concern at all.

"They let you walk out just like that?" Blaire couldn't help but ask, all the while clutching the heavy white cloak tighter around her curvaceous body.

Leonardo's right hand snaked through the air and bound Blaire's neck in a viscous grip that swept her feet off the ground and hung her in the air, face a purple shade from fear and lack of air.

"What is your story?" The young man didn't care for how beautiful this woman was as he needed to set her attitude on the right track— he has yet to punish her for dragging him down a spiraling mess that almost wrenched his plans.

The life of a pitiful non-cultivator wasn't worth that much in his eyes, certainly not valuable enough to postpone reviving Rosaline and or roaming the Core Mainland in search of those who truly mattered to him.

"I… "

Blaire frantically tapped away at Leonardo's forearm with a hint of a plea in her eyes, though she knew her current worth and value in the eyes of someone who didn't place the Magistrate Manor in his eyes.

Power came in shapes and forms, some are tangible while others are like the passing breeze that was both cold, and sharp, yet also detached.

Omnipresent however invisible.

Could be felt yet never grasped.

This was an apt description of the power this man held or perhaps had in store, awaiting the opportune moment of release— it was her foolishness that cracked the jar of mystery prematurely, and it wouldn't be surprising if the price paid in the atonement was her little life.

The cloak wrapping her body almost fell to the ground as she grappled away at his strong arm, but shame was the least of her worries as things stand. However, Leonardo wasn't in the habit of putting his property on exhibition for the common man to enjoy.

Thus, he wrapped Blaire with his worldly energy and strung her along while taking off to the sky, rocketing in the direction of his Shi Manor.

He would instruct Victoria back home to squeeze her dry from any and all information before determining whether she was valuable to him or not, and in the meantime, he would pay this cordial invitation to the social banquet a bit of his attention.

Leonardo didn't know that the pair of uniformed operators he met back then in the shallow waters pond served the same Lord as Raymond, and the reason behind that invitation is precisely that Lord's suspicion.

However, with the events of this day under the surveillance of the Magistrate Manor, that Lord's plans would accordingly shift from soft probing to establishing friendly relations.



"This is?…" Merlin asked, though her tone was a world of disinterest, emphasized by her act of lowering her head to browse through Leonardo's recorded notes on the magic theory the moment she finished her question.

Leonardo knew that this woman didn't care one bit about anything irrelevant to physics or magic, so he didn't bother answering. Instead, he swept his spiritual sense from the underground workshop and into the manor outside, quickly locating Victoria and Madeline discussing with Zaylee in a room upstairs.

He quickly sent a mental message summoning the three over, also requesting for a set of clothes with similar proportions to Elizabeth's.

Quite the odd request but Madeline nonetheless complied, the three divinities appearing in the room within a matter of seconds.

Leonardo pointed at Blaire, "She has some secrets enough to prompt a private estate into making a move, I want you to dig out everything she knows by the dawn of the following day."

"Yes Master," Victoria quickly stepped out, reaching a hand to grab for Blaire who couldn't even resist much less protest as the two disappeared in a gust of wind.

Leonardo nodded his head and glanced over at Madeline, the one supposedly staying behind to oversee the Shi Manor in his absence, and spoke, "There has been a slight change to the plans. Don't worry about the shop or the estate, make preparations to leave Greenheart City in short order, we might move out upon my return from the vampire clan."

"I understand," she responded in the affirmative.

Merlin raised her head in surprise, her beautiful brows furrowed into a smooth knit, "Since when did you decide to leave?"

If Leonardo left, that would indefinitely suspend her source of research material for studying magic theory, not to mention that her lifespan wasn't getting any longer.

Who knew if she might encounter anyone with comparable knowledge to Leonardo's in this short lifetime of hers? Thus, only now did she actually, and reluctantly, draw away from her documents and give Leonardo a serious look.

"You can tag along if you want— I actually would prefer it if you follow us anyway." Leonardo smiled faintly at this young lady who was in her early twenties.

He added, "After I handle some matters, I will join your efforts in researching how to improve the synchronization between runic inscriptions and magic theory— but I'll have to complete a few tasks as my mind wouldn't be at ease otherwise."

Leonardo also wanted to see if Rosaline could leave behind a condensed pill of blood essence to transform Merlin's body in an unorthodox manner.

If Rosaline could reconstruct Merlin's body from the bone marrow, it wouldn't be that difficult for the woman to achieve divinity. Although her path in cultivation would be severed after that realm, it would still provide her with a few centuries of life, and perhaps a millennia.

Who can say that they wouldn't find a way to further prolong her life span within a thousand years? That's at least better than a few decades of life.

Leonardo suddenly had an outrageous thought; if Rosaline rebuilt her body, wouldn't she be a virgin then? He quickly rattled the idea out of his head, cursing himself for being a beast.

Merlin actually contemplated the idea for a bit and inquired, "How long will you be gone for?"

Leonardo pondered for a bit and answered, "From one to three years, but I'll definitely make it back before three years as that's the deadline before we have to leave Greenheart City."

Leonardo proceeded to explain his agreement with the Magistrate Manor, and that he needed to leave quickly and prepare to oversee the construction and groundwork for his territory in the upcoming three years.

When everything is finished, he would come back to pick them up.
