If it was in the past, Leo would have immediately slit the throat of that man. Not just because he was heartless, but also because he needs to build up his reputation over this place.

Just like his two senior brothers and the Aries Weapons, they are known for being ruthless and heartless. Anyone who dares to approach them who aren\'t members of the Mischievous Lion organization would immediately lose their heads, unless of course if they have a reasonable reason. Because of that, a lot of people doesn\'t casually approach them anymore. In fact, unless they are members of the Mischievous Lion organization, no one would actually even dare to think of approaching them.

"Excellency, Leo, welcome back to the capital of the Underground World!" The Headguard welcomed with a slight bow of his head.

"Just continue with what you are doing, you don\'t have to mind me." Leo waved his hand, seemingly nonchalant, before walking towards a specific direction.

The Headguard nodded his head before slowly approaching the man who had just approached Leo before.

"Heh, not only did you have the guts to approach Excellency, Leo, but you also dared to pull his sleeves." The Headguard pulled his sword on his waist as he slowly raised it above his head.

"For that, you are dead!"

*Whoooosh!

*Cling!

Suddenly, the man\'s henchman with a cultivation of 3 Star blocked the Headguard\'s sword.

"Please forgive my Master for not knowing his place." The henchman quickly apologized, but without him even noticing, his head suddenly left his body.

"Seriously, you even dare let your henchman to block my attack instead of just accepting your death?" The Headguard sneered before swinging his second sword to clean off the blood.

"I..."

*Swooosh!

The man\'s head also left his body, following after his henchman.

"Clean up these two!" The Headguard ordered his men.

At the side, Charlotte and the others were immediately feeling like they were struck by lightning after seeing such a scene.

Just because that man dared to approach Leo, he and his henchman were immediately beheaded.

Without hesitating any further, Charlotte and the others quickly followed after Leo.

Leo who noticed this explained, "You also don\'t need to mind that. That\'s just how the guards of the Pathway of Elites do their jobs. If they don\'t become as ruthless and heartless as that, then the people of the Underground World, especially those new people who had just visited the Capital of the Underground World, would not respect the Mischievous Lion organization. Not only that, the Underground World is a very cruel place, so if you don\'t show your strength and make your name be feared by everybody, then expect yourselves to be bothered by the likes of them every single day, looking for fights and such, hoping to be the lucky one to kill you and make their own legend."

Hearing that, Charlotte and the others quickly nodded their heads in understanding. Simply put, it\'s the law of the jungle in the Underground World, specifically the strong eat the weak. So, if a person doesn\'t show that he\'s a predator, then people will immediately start assuming that they are prey instead.

"By the way, Leo, where are we going?" Charlotte can\'t help asking.

"To the place where we will buy your weapons." Leo replied.

.....

After walking for a few minutes, Leo and the others arrived in a building with a long line of people lining up to its entrance.

Just from standing in their location, the line could stretch out until their eyes could only see something like a dot.

This building looks like just an ordinary building, but if a person looked at its sign, they would quickly notice that it looks like a smiling lion, specifically two hammers as the lion\'s eyes, the anvil as the lion\'s smile, and lines of weapons as the lion\'s hair around its head.

"Aries Weapons, the best weapon shop in the capital of the Underground World." Leo introduced.

Without bothering with the crowd of people, Leo entered the place before quickly being followed after by Charlotte and the others.

As soon as they entered the place, they were immediately dazzled by hundreds of weapons hanging on the walls around them or encased inside a glass in front of them.

Looking closely at the weapons, Charlotte and the others quickly realized that almost all of them were Magic weapons.

In the past, Leo wouldn\'t be able to buy any of these Magic weapons, even if he has the money to buy one, simply because he still doesn\'t have the capability to control Mana, which is the basic requirement to use Magic weapons. Whenever he visited the Aries Weapons, he could only pitifully order a costume design weapon for himself, such as the daggers he always uses to throw towards his targets.

"This place really never fails to amaze me every time I visit." Leo muttered silently.

Suddenly, a voluptuous woman slowly approached Leo and the others, "Oh, the great Leo actually still has the face to visit my place?"

"Eh? Did I offend you in any way, Gretchen?" Leo curiously asked. In his entire life, he never ever thought of offending Gretchen. After all, she\'s the only person who can make a perfect custom made weapon for him.

Gretchen, or otherwise know as Aries Weapons Gretchen, the leader of the Aries Weapons group, also Twin Gemini George\'s older sister. Not only is she a woman, but she\'s also someone no one would dare to even step on, simply because unlike the other 11 members of the 12 Zodiacs, she is the Queen Lion\'s right hand and also has the cultivation of 6 Star in the past. No, right this moment she\'s actually already broken through to the 9 Star peak, one level higher compared to George and Charles and just slightly bit to finally break through to become an official Galaxy level Mage.

When the 12 Zodiacs were still new to the Underground World, a lot of people dares to court Gretchen, even to the point that they would kidnap her and force her to become theirs. However, all of those people, even their entire family, were erased on the surface of the Celestial World, seemingly as they have never existed at all.

It wasn\'t because Gretchen is very powerful, but rather because she commands a great authority in the Mischievous Lion organization. Therefore, whoever dares to offend her would be the same as suffering the wrath of the Mischievous Lion organization.

"Oh, you haven\'t done anything to me, personally. But instead, it\'s our Queen Olivia that made us suffer because of you! She basically pressured all of the 12 Zodiacs for the last 10 days or so to do everything to find you or else we will be sent into a 1-year training to the Frozen Tundra. Even your Libra and Virgo were frantically sent to the other neighboring Kingdoms to look for you, and not to mention, as her right hand, my Taurus and Sagittarius was also sent out without having any choice, causing me unimaginable trouble in my smithy!" Gretchen said full of displeasure. She suddenly opened the window of her shop as she continued, "Look at all of those people lining up outside my shop, because of you going missing for 10 days or so, I would eventually be losing hundreds or worst even thousands of worth of customer that wants to buy weapons in my shop."

"I..." Leo really felt that he was wronged. It was not like it was entirely all of his faults, right? Although he did indeed cause himself to be sent into the Eclipse village, but them being sent to look for him is not even his choice. In fact, he doesn\'t even want them to look for him because he\'s no longer a kid, hence he can go home by himself. Not to mention, it\'s also their own personal desire to become 12 Zodiacs, so they should face any kind of responsibilities that would be brought to them due to their position.

"Aystt... I know what you\'re thinking, \'It\'s not entirely my fault but also yours too\', so I won\'t be bothering with it anymore." Gretchen said helplessly, "And as the older sister of the 12 Zodiacs, it\'s just right for me to look for any of my younger brothers and sisters if ever they also went missing one day."

Indeed, aside from being the older sister of George, Gretchen is actually also the older sister of everyone in the 12 Zodiacs. And although she likes to \'educate\' and \'teach\' all of them a lesson or two, she\'s also a loving, caring, and understanding person.

"However, if you really want to buy anything from me, which is I\'m assuming for this 9 Star Battle Mage, then you also need to bring back Taurus and Sagittarius back to me aside from the cost of the weapon. Do you have any problem with that?" Gretchen said while walking to one of the weapons.

"I understand..." Leo replied helplessly. What can he say? He needs the weapons, and since that\'s the cost of buying it, then he has no choice but to accept it. Although, he can actually choose another weapon shop, but he\'d rather give the benefit to the Mischievous Lion organization than the others, especially if it\'s about weapons since it concerns whether he can live or not when facing an opponent.

Charlotte and the others at the side were doing their best to hold their laughter. It was really their first time to see Leo being put into a helpless situation like this one. After all, even Ash and Charlotte, despite being someone much more powerful than Leo, can\'t actually make him feel as helpless as facing Gretchen.

"What?!" Leo turned to look at Charlotte and the others, thinking of letting out his irritation to them.

"Oh, this weapon is great!" Brad quickly saves himself.

"This whip is also great! Would hitting Ahmed be satisfying with this? After all, he might have seen me changing my clothes while stalking me every night, right?" Jasmine also saved herself.

"That is a wonderful saber, even Commander Ava\'s Sapphire Saber fails in comparison to this one." Princess Elaine turned to look at the saber encased inside a glass.

"Jeffrey and Matt, come and look at those weapons!" Venice quickly saved herself along with Jeffrey and Matt.

"Coming!"

"Coming!"

"Bros, I think I\'ve found a weapon suited for all of us to work as a team!" Number one quickly called out Number two to Number ten.

"Wait for me!"

"....."

It was only Charlotte left standing in front of Leo, and because of how quickly everyone responded, she could only whistle an unknown music while slowly approaching a sword near her.

"Hehehehe, I think this sword would fit me, do you also agree with me, Master Leo?" Charlotte said while hoping deep inside that Leo wouldn\'t put all the blame on her.

Seeing Charlotte who was trying her best to satisfy him, Leo instead felt even more annoyed, "Can you try even harder? You\'re not even a sword user, so why are you choosing a sword?"
