The guild leader fell and most of the guild members were also killed or subdued. A few more remained upstairs, but as soon as they saw Leo, they trembled and immediately fell to their knees.

After easily subduing the remaining guys, Leo robbed their warehouse.

“The parasites of the kingdom. You’ve collected a lot.”

Leo frowned.

I searched all over their buildings and found a good amount of money.

The materials obtained there were brought to the top floor of the building, the room used by the guild leader.

When they were gathered in one place, the amount was considerable, and the whole room was filled with gold bars, silver bars, and various items.

“A few things will take a while, but once you get it all done, you can easily buy a few big mansions in the capital.”

Celise clicked her tongue as she checked the ledger.

As a child of a viscount, she had been taught since she was a child, so she had considerable knowledge in this area as well.

“To think these guys were installed in our kingdom. It’s annoying.”

Leo frowned.

Maybe it’s because it’s been years since I’ve been possessed by this body.

I was very angry because I felt like I was watching a mosquito sucking people’s blood.

“Perhaps starting with this incident, the shadowy organizations will be gradually wiped out.”

“I guess so. The reason my father left these guys alone was to fight among themselves. If you think you’re weak enough, I’ll clean it up right away.”

-smart.

While talking to Celise, Drexla came in.

“Lowering. The building has been searched.”

“great job. Anything else found?”

“There were a few people imprisoned underground.”

“Incarceration?”

Leo opened his eyes wide.

This isn’t a prison, it’s a confinement.

I guessed what the situation was.

They must have been civilians or prisoners of war who came into contact with shadowy organizations.

“Bring them all here.”

Drexla brought a group of close to 10 people into the room.

They must have suffered hardships, and all of them were in a state of disrepair.

Skin and bone were in contact with each other, and there were scars all over the body.

“I’m going to need a priest to heal me.”

“I have already called. I said it was a lower order, so it should arrive in 30 minutes.”

“As expected, Drexla. Great.”

After giving a thumbs up at Drexla’s sense, Leo looked at them.

Perhaps not understanding the situation yet, they shivered and could not even make eye contact with Leo.

Leo sighed and opened his mouth.

“Everyone has suffered a lot. You may still feel scared and unsure of the situation, but trust me. you are safe I guarantee it in the name of Leo Asian Rom Karst.”

A polite but powerful voice.

It was hard to believe that it came out of a young boy’s mouth.

And when he heard Leo’s name, a man muttered involuntarily.

“4, 4th Prince Leo? A genius wizard?”

Seeing that reaction, Leo also looked at him with interest.

‘He recognizes me.’

Hearing his name, he would of course know that he was a member of the royal family, but he would have known at once that he was the fourth prince and that he was a genius wizard.

Rumors about Leo spread a lot, but it was only among nobles, knights, and wizards.

Most of the shadowy gangs here are common people who don’t have time to care.

“you. What is your name?”

So Leo was intrigued and asked for his name.

The man gulped and averted his gaze.

I guess I thought I was getting some attention.

He sneakily covered the little girl with his arm.

“Is it your daughter? It must have been dragged along.”

“… … .”

“Say your name. There will be no harm to you or your daughter. I guarantee it with the honor of the royal family.”

When Leo said that, the man cautiously opened his mouth.

“Go, my name is Gawain… Lowering.”

“… Gawain?”

And the moment he heard that name, there was an illustration that passed through Leo’s head.

A fairly famous NPC when playing the game.

Come to think of it, if you look closely, the features seem to be similar.

‘… This man is the second person in the Casein Guild?’

This snarky man in front of him was a person who was a considerable tycoon in the future he knew.

* * *

According to the original game story, the Cassane Guild rules the shadowy lands of the capital of the Kingdom of Rome for a long time.

However, when Leo appeared, the future changed.

As the saying goes, the butterfly effect, I knew something would change, but I never thought I would see the result like this.

‘When Countess Ermeri, the Red Witch, governed the Casein Guild, Gawain was her right-hand man who oversaw the entire organization.’

Although his physical strength is not very high, his ability to manage organizations and carry out orders from his superiors is excellent.

Countess Hermery was able to grow the organization to that extent thanks to Gawain’s resourcefulness.

‘Come to think of it, in the original story, the reason why Gawain ended up with Countess Ermeri was because she saved him and his daughter.’

Perhaps even in the original history, the Gawains and their daughters were caught in a fight between organizations in this way.

With the Casein Guild rescuing it, he would have naturally entered Countess Ermeri’s command.

But this time it’s different.

The Casein Guild withdrew long ago.

They might have been captured by the Nerian Guild, and possibly killed.

If it wasn’t for Leo.

“Gawain.”

Leo called him.

Gawain answered cautiously.

“… Yes. Lowering.”

“I saved you. Do you know?”

“… Thank you very much. I will live my life praising the grace of the poor.”

Gawain banged his head and muttered.

Leo shook his head.

“It’s simply not enough. How many times did you think you’d end up with just a few words of gratitude for the kindness of the royal family?”

“Well, then what do you want… ? Me, I’m a person who doesn’t have much. Lowering… .”

Gawain looked at Leo with anxious eyes.

Leo smiled lightly.

“I can’t ask for money in return, so you don’t have to look at me with such anxious eyes. instead… .”

What more words will come out of Leo’s mouth?

As Gawain watched with strained eyes, Leo continued.

“I hope you will work for me in the future. I’ll give you all my allegiance.”

“Yes… ?”

“Did you not hear?”

“Oh, no. I heard… .”

Gawain looked like he was wondering if what he was hearing was correct.

“Or were you thinking of refusing?”

“Yeah, can that be?”

“Then, please take good care of me in the future.”

Leo shook his hand with satisfied eyes.

No matter how many talented people have a guaranteed future, they are not enough.

Gawain looked at Leo with an absurd look.

* * *

Leo returned to the royal castle.

Since the report of the results had already been completed, an audience with the king was immediately set up.

King Biden looked at Leo, who proudly entered, with complicated eyes.

said Leo.

“Majesty. Is this proof that I can go west enough? If you say it’s not enough, you can order more.”

Leo speaks boldly.

Seeing him like that, King Biden felt an indescribable emotion.

‘When did that child grow up like this… .’

Of course, Leo was very mature, but that and this were different.

Parents always look like their children are young.

However, Leo did a great job.

He was no longer a child to be protected, but a wizard.

“… yes. No more proof needed. It’s ridiculous to say two things with one mouth. You did an excellent job with the task I entrusted to you.”

King Biden said.

“Hey Leo. I don’t know why you want to go to the dangerous west. But if you, the smart one, are so stubborn, there must be some reason.”

“… … .”

“If you look at history books, ordinary people couldn’t understand every step the heroes took. On the contrary, he even interrupted me by saying that his thoughts were different.”

King Biden smiled softly.

“It’s Leo.”

“… Yes, Father.”

“I believe you. I have a strange intuition that in the future you will surely become a hero more than the founder.”

Leo scratched his cheek at the look of infinite trust in his eyes.

“How could I stop you? Be careful and go. I look forward to seeing you grow.”

“… thank you. father.”

At King Biden’s warm words, Leo slightly lowered his head, controlling his rising emotions.

I thought he was just the father of the possessed body… I really felt the bond between the rich and the poor.

* * *

The king included the direct royal troops, part of the royal guard, and Prince Leo among the personnel sent west.

If nothing else, it was a shocking appointment to send Leo, a genius wizard with a bright future.

-Ah, no matter how low Leo says he has ridiculous skills… Aren’t you too young?

– For those who are only 10 years old, the battlefield is a bit… .

All the nobles were worried, but King Biden didn’t give up.

Then the fire fell on the feet of the nobles.

King Biden made a superpower by sending his son to a dangerous battlefield.

What would happen if the aristocrats shunned themselves in such a situation?

-This time, I have to show sincerity.

-If I make a mistake and hate Her Highness, I may end up having a hard time in the future.

The nobles willingly gave up private soldiers.

Thus, a huge number of reinforcements were organized.

Its scale surprised even the western Duke of Ryant who requested reinforcements!

Leo arrived west of the kingdom with reinforcements.

“Is this here?”

The citadel where the Duke of Lyant resides.

It is a strong shield that protects the kingdom from numerous monsters that appear in the western part of the continent.

Its name is the Iron Wall!

Upon arrival, Leo was able to meet the Duke of Lyant.

Before meeting him, I was quite excited.

The Duke of Ryant was quite a celebrity even when playing the original game.

‘This is how I get to actually see the strongest knight in the Kingdom of Rome.’

The Kingdom of Rome is called the Kingdom of Magic due to the influence of its founder Karst the Great, but the history of knights was as high as that of wizards.

Being said to be the best knight in such a kingdom, of course his skills are top-notch!

With that in mind, Leo looked forward to meeting the Duke of Lyant.

And in his office, I met a large man with gray hair like a lion’s mane.

Perhaps it was to the point of being called the best knight, and a sense of intimidation overflowed just by looking at it.

“Nice to meet you, Duke. My name is Leo Asian Rom Karst.”

Leo greeted with half respect.

No matter how royal, a duke, especially the Duke of Lyant, deserved the respect of the royal family.

Glancing at Leo like that, Duke Ryant tut and clicked his tongue.

“Yes what. Nice to meet you too, poor Leo.”

“… … ?”

At the tone of his disapproval, Leo was taken aback for a moment.

In Leo’s ears, he heard Duke Lyant’s muttering voice.

“The troop support was good… His Highness even entrusted childcare. This is not a daycare center.”

I’m not a Leo who just listens to it and passes it on.

“… What did you say just now?”

Leo looked at Duke Lyant with cold eyes.
