Unlimited Power - The Arcane Path
107 Chapter 106

By the look of things, Sarah already knew that William and the other two attacked Tokyo and caused the death of Makoto's son, it was even possible that she helped them directly. So, Leon started to wonder if Makoto would want her head… Regardless, Sarah didn't show a single sign of hesitation. She already concluded that that kind of thing was necessary to protect the citizens of the Alliance…

"Cause deaths to prevent deaths… this is insane."

In the end, Leon nodded, showing that he would participate. It was crazy, but it couldn't be helped. That was his chance to approach those who participated in the death of the prince.

"I have to act faster… If I take my time, I will cause an international incident while I'm trying to avoid a war."

If, by chance, he ends up helping William and the others, eventually, Makoto would discover and conclude that Leon became an enemy. That would be the worst-case-scenario… Makoto didn't give him a deadline, but Leon couldn't take his sweet time, two months have already passed, after all.

"Master…" Gisela hesitated.

"Don't worry about it… it is just another job." Leon said. "Just focus on your training, remember, your goal is to return home."

"…Yes." Gisela said.

Speaking of home, Italy is very close to Germany. So close that Leon could travel between them in one hour. Unfortunately, Leon couldn't bring Gisela with him, and it wouldn't be that easy to replace her home and her family... if they are still alive.

Anyway, Leon didn't have a lot of time to think. Now that it has come to that, his best option was to capture the S rank members involved in the mission and William to interrogate him. It would be good if he participates in the mission, but Leon had no idea if he would or not.

"I hoped that I would eventually join the spies ranks... but I never thought my first would be to cause another diplomatic problem. My best option is to solve this tonight... but if those guys think that we really need that relic to kill the demons, should I really get them tonight? What will happen to the Allied Forces if I interrogate William and discover that Sanchez and Alisson are also involved? Ugh... this a pain."

While Leon was thinking about what to do, time passed fast. In no time, the night came, and then the time to depart… Leon hadn't a single plan of what to do. Specifically, he should have considered the possibility of such an event happening. What happens once, happens twice, after all.

Leon packed some food and clothes, he didn't know what would happen, and there was a chance that he really would have to cause an international incident, so he had to be ready for everything.

"Be careful, master," Gisela said when Leon opened the door to leave.

"Yeah, just keep up with the good work," Leon said.

Although New York had power, at night, most of the city stayed dark. The only exception was the bridges, and the extreme points of the city were some watchmen worked. However, Leon had an easy time walking to the arena since he just had to walk in a straight line.

After a few minutes, Leon arrived at the arena, and he saw a few silhouettes in the middle of the darkness near the entrance. Unfortunately, there was no sign of William. So Leon immediately understood that he would work with the S rank members and complete the mission. The only way to put all the spies and William at the same place would be completing the mission and then giving the report.

"I can only hope that the Russians will accept my apologies later... for that to happen, I can't kill any of them, and I also have to prepare a gift."

It was disappointing that his mission would last for a while longer, but soon Leon recovered from the disappointment. Although he couldn't see their faces, everyone there had a good built, and even their presences were different from regular survivors. Unlike Miller, Suzan, Juan, and Kelly, those guys had the luck to replace powerful skills; they also had the will to work hard to improve, but more importantly than that, they were born soldiers.

​ Eventually, one more last shadow approached, it looked to be the silhouette of a woman since it was thin, and she was relatively short.

"Follow me." The woman said.

Leon didn't recognize the voice, but it sounded kind of familiar... since everyone just obeyed, he concluded she was known among them. After walking for two hours, they reached the inhabited part of the city where a warehouse was. The building was quite big, big enough to park dozen of helicopters, and that was what he saw there. When he saw one chopper being prepared, he concluded they would use one of those. However, Leon was pretty sure a helicopter didn't have enough fuel to cross the entire Atlantic ocean. Besides, they had to worry about dragons... even though it has been a while since Leon saw one.

"Will we use a chopper to go to Europe?" Leon asked.

"Mmm? Yes, you are the newbie, right?" The woman who leads them to that place asked. "You seem nervous, don't worry about it. Those choppers were constructed after the monsters appeared, they are moved by mana, and they don't cause any sound, and on top of that, they can become invisible."

Even that part of the city was dark, so Leon could only see everyone's silhouette. Considering that they didn't say anything, it wasn't the first time they would travel in those choppers. However, putting that aside, Leon was quite surprised that someone built a helicopter that could use mana, didn't make noise, and became invisible. It was one heck of a perfect vehicle for espionage work and for missions like that.
