Chapter 1514 Role

"Wait, Sir War Saint!" The UK's representative immediately stopped him since he wanted to weaken the Lexon Group and the Griffith Family with this opportunity.

However, Leonardo was focused more on the Czar than those two. He immediately stated, "My place is the closest to them, and I believe my family is one of the few influences that can protect them right now.

"I have told you the reason earlier. This incident can't be taken lightly. If we stop the investigation just because we don't want to deal with it, there won't be any talented people that will show themselves from today onward.

"They'll be scared because they're going to die if they stand out. That's why I have to take them into custody immediately. I also have heard that Ricky has been visiting the Empress for a while. Since I'm at it, I'll also bring the Empress Palace to my place to secure them.

"If you're going to argue with me after all this explanation, then I have to ask you to leave this place. Don't forget that the US Base has been reinforcing themselves, and many corporations, especially the Star Group, have begun their transformation. The Star Group seems to be working on a large-scale project to reconnect the world again with their new airplane. In other words, they're going to monopolize the sky.

"Meanwhile, United Asia has created a strong front with the Heavenly Sovereign, the Sword Saint, and the Daemon. They are number 2nd, 3rd, and 10th in the world. With them there, I believe that they're going to be the first to expand their base.

"What about us? We're going nowhere. By the time they have recolonized the planet, we're here stranded in fear. If you're going to go that way, then I'll leave the union and do everything I want."

Leonardo gave them the ultimatum as he was the adviser of the union. Although Flora had suppressed him after Theo's incident, even she wouldn't push Leonardo to the brim because the moment the War God Family stopped their support, they wouldn't get more plans on how to progress from now onward. This was the War God Family's forte, so Leonardo's words had a huge weight in everyone's heart.

Still, the only one who could say something in this situation was none other than Flora. She asked, "But Leonardo, I don't think your family can handle both influences by yourself."

"Don't worry. I have a friend that can help me." Leonardo gave an immediate answer.

Flora fell silent and remembered one person. "The pope?"

"Yes. I'll leave the Empress, who doesn't seem to be involved too deeply, to the church. The church itself is a neutral party even in the union. Hence, there won't be anyone who needs to fear that the Empress is joining hands with the pope to cause instability in the union."

Flora closed her eyes for a moment and said, "Alright. I give you the authority. Send your experts to Czech immediately and ensure the safety of the Czar as well as the Empress. After that, coordinate with the church to handle the situation."

"Understood." Leonardo nodded with a serious expression as he immediately relayed the words to his son, Marzio.

After that, Flora turned to Alexej and said with a cold tone. "I want a full investigation of Richard's death. We have to make sure the public knows about it for the future of the union. I'll give you the right to investigate Ricky Nixon's death as well as his involvement in this matter. The rest will be taken care of by Leonardo."

"What?" Alexej wanted to refuse immediately, but Flora suddenly added, "I also want to investigate the Griffith Family's involvement in this matter."

Her tone was cold and her voice was filled with killing intent. She was serious. She planned to remove anyone that wanted to challenge her seat. If the Griffith Family succeeded in their scheme, she might also die from the Griffith Family's plot by joining hands with the Lexon Group, so she planned to use this opportunity to weaken them both. This way, she would gain sole control over the union.

Leonardo closed his eyes calmly as if he was tired of this political bullshit. He wasn't even here to gain anything from the union. He was here just to protect his family. Still, Leonardo felt chills down his spine when he looked at this situation.

The British Royal Family would be strengthened a bit because of Richard, but they could still be kept in check because of his death. The Lexon Group would suffer because they would clash with the Griffith Family this time.

In other words, Theo was actually planning to make the Lexon Group and the Griffith Family fight against each other.

Meanwhile, the Royal Family was simply a third party among them. But because they were a bit useful to him, he gave some advantages to them in the form of connection with the people in the union. In fact, Theo might be the whole reason for the attack. The proof was the fact that Richard's bodyguard didn't die. She should have helped Theo quite a bit, so Theo didn't kill her for two reasons. First for her testament and second for debt and gratitude.

The two allies fought among themselves and Flora swept them with her strength. This was Theo's plan.

But there was one question in Leonardo's mind.

'Since when could he upgrade one's skill? Is it from the start? No, it might be after acquiring his Order… But Order should be an absolute power, not something with probability…' Leonardo suddenly realized Theo's real reason for going to the British Royal Family.

The fact that no one could access their system anymore was the perfect timing for his ability to upgrade a skill. If he showed this power before the apocalypse, he would be the target of the world. But this time, he would look like a savior.

But Theo had a hidden intention in revealing this ability. 'That brat was actually using that power to make others give him free Skill Cards for him to upgrade his comrades' abilities. Then, how did he smuggle the Skill Cards across the sea… No, wait…'

Czech.

Yermolayev was sitting on his bed because there were too many suspicions around him. But there was a reason for him staring continuously at the door as if he was waiting for someone. Under his bed were two huge suitcases he used to travel to the UK a few days ago. But the quilt covered them, so no one would realize they would disappear.

Suddenly, a blue-haired man entered Yermolayev's room with a smirk on his face. "Yo."
