It was already nighttime, and Leo had gathered all the Executives of the Mischievous Lion Guild in the meeting room to hear about what had happened while he was in his closed-door cultivation. He also wanted to share with everyone his achievement with learning the Ferocious Lion's Wrath Magic Combat Technique, and his future plan of letting others learn it as well to further improve the strength of the Mischievous Lion Guild. 

"I've heard from Aaron that a lot of good things had happened to the Mischievous Lion Guild during my closed-door cultivation, is this true?" Leo began the meeting.

"Who's Aaron?... No, that person's identity is not important. Anyways, yes, a lot of good things had indeed happened to the Mischievous Lion Guild," Ethan replied, he explained, "One of that is we have successfully caught the Beast Lord Vineyard Dragon, and because you were gone, I decided on what to exchange it for,"

With a smile on his face, Leo asked, "And you have exchanged the Beast Lord Vineyard Dragon for?" 

"For even more Emerald Elven Flyingboats, or should I call it now as Smiling Lion Flyingboat? Well, the name is not really that important. What's important is we have 15 additional Flyingboats in the Mischievous Lion Guild," Ethan said while wearing the look of someone who is trying to say to Leo that he shouldn't thank him because he's only doing his best as one of the Executives of the Mischievous Lion Guild, although deep inside he really wanted Leo to appreciate and praise him for all of his efforts. 

Contrary to Ethan's expectations, Leo's smile immediately stiffens after hearing that the former had actually exchange for 15 additional Smiling Lion Flyingboat. He was already having a lot of trouble just thinking about how he should handle all of the expenses brought by all of the Flyingboats that the Mischievous Lion Guild currently have. Yet Ethan still decided to add even more trouble on top of that. Is he perhaps planning to bankrupt the entire Mischievous Lion Guild?! 

Noticing Leo's expression and the sudden change of atmosphere in the meeting room, Ethan can't help but ask, "Why? Is there something wrong with what I choose? Just to clarify though, it was Angel who told me to choose whatever I deemed fit for the development of the Mischievous Lion Guild,"

"I indeed told you that, but if ever it was not deemed as fit for the development of the Mischievous Lion Guild, then it would not be my fault since that isn't included on what I told you," Angel quickly objected while crossing her hand together. 

"You..." Ethan pointed his finger towards Angel in disbelief. He really thought that he could escape, or at least minimize, the blame just by simply sharing the fault with Angel. But turns out that it was completely out of his expectations since she had easily outplayed him with her words. Now he finally understood the clear meaning behind what Leo meant when he told him in the past that women are the epitome of trouble. 

"Always put in your mind and never forget that it isn't only you men that can be unreasonable. We women, if the situation really requires, can also do the same as well," Elaine didn't hesitate to add salt to her husband Ethan's wound. 

"I..." Ethan really doesn't know how he should reply. He wasn't planning on being unreasonable, or at least he will not admit on planning to do that. The only reason why he really chooses to exchange the Beast Lord Vineyard Dragon for an additional Flyingboats was exactly because he had found out that Leo had already exchange for the set of Magic armors and had even exchange for more Flyingboats. Since there was nothing else to exchange for according to their plan and knowing that Leo had also done the same thing, he might as well just add even more Flyingboats, right? At that moment, he was guessing that Leo should have thought of exchanging for more Flyingboats in preparation for once they leave the Emerald Tree Kingdom. 

"I can't solely blame you for all of this, but if ever you will be given future opportunities to exchange for something with the Evergreen royal family. I'm talking to all of you present here in the meeting room," Leo said as he turned to look at Cassandra and the other Executives of the Mischievous Lion Guild one by one, before continuing, "I strongly suggest that we don't exchange for more Flyingboats. I will not be hiding anything from you nor is there any use to hiding this; I just learned that with the numbers of Flyingboats that the Mischievous Lion Guild currently possessed, one of these days we would eventually be facing a huge problem about not having sufficient Magical resources for our Flyingboats' maintenance and to keep them all working,"

"So in order to avoid such a situation from happening, let's temporarily suspend any thoughts of adding more Flyingboats, understood?"

Everyone immediately nodded their heads in unison while saying, "We understand, Guild Leader Loki," 

"Anyways, what else had happened to the Mischievous Lion Guild?" Leo quickly returned back to the main topic of their meeting. This time, he had specifically removed the words 'Good thing' from his question because it seems like not everyone has the same opinion of the meaning behind those two words.

Ethan can't help but hesitate after hearing Leo's question. After nearly getting blamed just a while ago, he is now afraid of causing another trouble to himself. He turned to look at the others but soon noticed that it wasn't actually only him who had the same thoughts, but the others as well. 

While feeling helpless, Ethan began looking for someone to share his suffering with, of course not his wife Elaine. After all, she had just added salt on his wounds. The person he was looking for was Elvis, who was also someone who handles a lot of matters in the Mischievous Lion Guild but in the end would still not get rewarded for all of his efforts, just like him. 

However, Ethan soon noticed that Elvis is actually not present in the meeting room right now, "Why is Elvis not here?" 

As soon as Ethan finished his words, he quickly realized that he had actually said out loud what was supposedly just going to stay inside of his mind. 

"Elvis? Now that you have mentioned him, Elvis hasn't yet returned to the Smiling Lion Village ever since the day that Leo had gone into his closed-door cultivation. Has anyone saw him these past several days?" Angel quickly asked. 

"So this time it's a literal bad thing?" Leo asked before resting his head on top of his right hand that he had balled into a fist. 

At first, he really thought that he would be hearing a lot of good things once he was finished with his closed-door cultivation, especially after hearing Aaron's report. 

Yet, just right after hearing about Ethan exchanging for an additional 15 Flyingboats from the Evergreen royal family, he would soon hear about Elvis being missing? 

Is this perhaps a sign that he is not allowed to have any time for himself in the future because once he does, bad things would consequently happen?

"That should be far from being the case, right?" Cassandra turned to look at Elizabeth and the others, excluding Angel, hoping that one of them had seen Elvis. But unfortunately, they all shook their heads.

"Elvis is a very cautious person, so there is no need to worry about him. We can rest assured that nothing had definitely happened to him," Ethan said while waving his hand to express that this is not a big problem, at all.

"I also agree with that. Elvis has a somewhat similar vibe with Leo, at least in the part of being an extremely cautious person," This time, Elaine finally choose to support her husband Ethan's claim. 

"I agree as well," Edward added. He hasn't really cooperated with Elvis that much ever since the latter joined the Mischievous Lion Guild, since he was gone for a few days along with his girlfriend Sele in their mission of investigating the Wolf Howl organization. But base on what he had heard about the guy so far, it doesn't seem like he would just easily be caught in some kind of trouble. He continued, "Maybe Elvis is just out there, collecting more useful and relevant information that can help the Mischievous Lion Guild,"

"Probably," Chief Lago was feeling a bit doubtful. 

"He should be fine," Sebastian expressed his thoughts. 

"Yeah, maybe Elvis is just spending his time with a woman that he likes," Dan said as he turned to look at Sebastian meaningfully.

"Boys," Sele rolled her eyes. 

"Youngsters will always be youngsters no matter what," Old man Torre shook his head.

As much as Leo really wanted to believe that there was nothing wrong with Elvis being missing from the moment he began with his closed-door cultivation until this present time, but after hearing from Uncle Elfin that the Naughty Elves organization had created a lot of clones of Elvis, he subconsciously thought that Elvis was caught by them. 

Additionally, with his assumption previously about Elvis being related to what the Naughty Elves organization was planning on doing in the Emerald Tree Kingdom, he can't help but firmly believe that it should most likely be the case right now. 

It wasn't only Leo who was thinking about such an assumption. Iasiah and Nightingale, the two who had come with Leo in his visit to the Evergreen royal family's castle and had also heard everything that Leo and Uncle Elfin had talked about Elvis, have their faces turned solemn after realizing that Elvis is missing.

"Iasiah and Nightingale, are you both also thinking what I'm currently thinking," Leo asked while looking at Iasiah and Nightingale. 

"Assuming that Elvis is indeed missing, then he is most likely in the hands of the Naughty Elves organization as we speak," Iasiah replied. 

"It seems like the history of the Emerald Tree Kingdom would be repeating once again in this present time," Nightingale said before heaving a heavy sigh.
