Chapter 399 399-’Hero’ Leaves

"Well you can keep your secrets if you wish so"

I said with a smile, as I took my attention away from him, my plans for him are already set and he has already entered the web that I have waived, all that was left for him is the end that I have written, not a pretty one I might add.

"What's the current situation?"

I asked.

"The students are all tired, drained, and distrustful, there is unrest everywhere"

Alex said, he took out some doc.u.ments and he pa.s.sed them to me, taking them I started to read them through, and a few seconds later I spoke.

"Opportunity and danger"

"Yes"

Alex nodded his head at my words, as he continued to speak.

"A complete breakdown will soon take place here and if it isn't dealt with in time, then n.o.body will be needed to attack, the danger itself will be internal"

I nodded my head at his words, agreeing with what Alex was saying, right now there was no trust, especially between the different species gathered here, such a situation won't arise out of just the issues, there is someone on the inside, someone rising the flames of war and distrust among everyone.

"Does anyone have any ideas?"

I asked, looking at everyone, among the ones gathered here only Alex seems to have an idea perhaps that I might know more than I did, while Clara knew the whole truth, after all, she is my little whisperer holding the thin line of balance within this place of mine, otherwise, I am sure a s.h.i.+t storm would have risen between the girls here.

It's through her guided effects and her secret manipulation that I told her to do, that any of the girls haven't taken action yet, I take my time to deal with both Mika and Rika, as I am in a relations.h.i.+p with them, giving my time and love to them at intervals, this protection is maintained by Clara who deals with the other girls at such times.

'They are all weak master, they will be of no use'

Suddenly Farah talked in my mind.

'They have their use and they are my friends'

I replied, she was about to say something but it was then that Leonardo suddenly spoke.

"I-I....might have something to say"

He said with some hesitation on his face, his distrusting eyes only looking at me, I could smell the plot he is making from a mile away, well how couldn't I when I was the one that gave him the plot or to be more accurate Barley Schoff the member of the Illuminati pa.s.sed him the message.

'Amon did a good job taking the disguise from me'

I noted as I waited for the hero to pa.s.s me the information in his mind. He took a deep breath as he looked around the table.

"When I was traveling I came upon something special, a conspiracy, the prince Raze he's pulling the strings here, causing all the issues"

Leonardo said, bringing about a silence to the tent, my expression became serious seeing something which earned a scoff from Leonardo, probably thinking that my acting was great, I will take that as a compliment.

"How confident are you?"

I asked.

"Very"

He replied in a serious tone, seeing so I leaned back in the chair, pretending to think.

"Do you have any proof?"

"I do"

He said, making the atmosphere tenser.

"Then that changes everything...."

I replied, as I looked at Alex, someone that I have already given the role he has to play, looking towards him I could see his mischief causing eyes to s.h.i.+ne, giving me a wink he turned towards Leonardo starting to speak.

"Where is this proof?"

"It's somewhere safe"

Leonardo said, causing everyone to frown, this time I could see the real annoyance on Alex's face.

"Are you implying that this place isn't safe?"

"I am sorry but I can't show the information to anyone, I will present it at the meeting at the center table to every other leader"

Leonardo said, his expression remaining taut, well before if my friends had a small distance now they straight up doesn't like him at all, I could see the frowns taking over everyone's faces, I remained silent as I let Alex do his work, he too is quite adept at manipulating the situation.

"Mr.Leonardo we are all members here, we treat each other as family, after the time we spent together are you saying that you can't trust us?"

Alex spoke, creating the situation as a perfect trap for Leonardo.

"Th-This"

This time Leonardo hesitated to speak, his eyes traveling through the others that were looking at him with narrowed eyes, even Zora who has a very good impression of him as he did a lot of tasks for her, taking and bringing down materials and helping her in some travels.

I could see that she wanted to defend him as a good friend but then again, her feeling for me was much higher than that for Leonardo, and if it meant going against me she would rather keep her mouth shut, plus with the scenarios I had created during the travel of Zora and Leonardo in this realm, her hearts already filled with several dissatisfactions, the answer that our dear hero will give now will be the last straw that will break the camels back.

Plus she considers everyone here as her family, people whom she spent a lot of time with, she had grown to be a person who will take the side of her family than a friend.

"I-I"

Leonardo kept looking around not knowing what to do, until his eyes landed on me, who was looking at him with an expressionless face, seeing me finally some sort of decision reached his mind, taking a deep breath he lowered his head as he spoke.

"I'm sorry"

That's all he told but it was more than enough for everyone here to get rid of the last shred of interest anyone of them had for him, completely cutting off any future way for Leonardo to gain their favors, men or women.

"It seems I was wrong about you"

Zora said in a chilly voice, this made Leonardo flinch, pain filling him but soon his face changed for the better becoming calm.

'That stupid Durendal must be feeding him c.r.a.p like, pain makes you stronger'

I marked. Sitting up straight I raised my hand stopping Jacob from losing his temper and starting a fight, my goals for Leonardo in my faction were accomplished, it was time I send him on his way to follow his path, a path I created for him.

"Mr.Leonardo, strip off your symbol of our faction and leave, we do not need someone that doesn't have any trust"

I spoke, my voice sounding cold as it can be.

"Also I will take you to the meeting tomorrow, but your better have hardened proof of your words, otherwise there will be consequences"

I said, leaning back while waving my hand, shooing him away, Leonardo bit his lips but he didn't say anything else as he nodded his head and stood up, taking his badge he placed it on the table and started to walk away but not before leaving some words.

"Sonia will leave with me"

"Whatever Sonia wants to do is her wish, if she speaks her desire then she may leave my faction"

I responded in a calm manner, hearing so he gave a nod with his back to me, as such he started to walk away, now knowing of the darker future that awaits him
