Leo immediately greeted Madam Silva soon after he arrived inside her office alongside with Evangelion.

"Good evening, Madam Silva!" Leo respectfully greeted.

Evangelion bowed his head a little to express his greetings to Madam Silva.

"Oh, are you here again to sell me another bountiful harvest that you have found this time around?" Madam Silva said as she slowly put down the work that she was currently doing. Obviously, she was already familiar about Leo. Aside from going to her office for something important, the only other reason was to have a business transaction about the treasures he has found.

"Hehehe, I\'m indeed going to. Unfortunately, I wouldn\'t be selling any of the large Mana stones I have found this time. But I have other, more things to sell." Leo said before he took out a random item hidden inside the net bag of Magical Beast bodies, "Though it needs some cleaning, hehehe..."

Because the items were being hidden with the cover of Magical Beast bodies, being covered by blood and the likes was obviously going to happen. Hence, Leo could only let out an awkward laugh soon after he took out a random item.

"What is that...?" Madam Silva asked curiously. At the same time, she let out a short laugh at Leo\'s seemingly careless behavior.

"I think it\'s some kind of Spell Engraved Paper, maybe...?"Leo said helplessly. The paper was fully covered by the Magical Beast blood, so it became hard to recognize what it was.

"Let me!" Evangelion said as he quickly took the paper from Leo.

Fortunately, Evangelion was around to easily fix such a problem.

Quickly, the paper was immediately covered by a wisp of Pure Mana and the blood was then slowly being removed. The Pure Mana then vanished from thin air along with the blood after finally finishing cleaning the Spell Engraved Paper.

"Good thing this is a Spell Engraved Paper, or else the paper would have long been drenched wet and destroyed due to the corrosion of the Magical Beast blood!" Evangelion said as he returned the paper to Leo.

"Thank you!" Leo said as he received the Spell Engraved Paper from Evangelion. Although he knew the general rule of Support Magic spell, using Magic spells like the way Evangelion did was still new to him.

"Anything else?" Madam Silva quickly asked. She wanted to inquire more since obviously there should still be more items that Leo would want to sell for him to actually decide not to sell any of the large Mana stones to her, right?

To be honest, Madam Silva actually doesn\'t care even if Leo doesn\'t sell her any of the large Mana stones. She just doesn\'t want to say it though, in hopes that she can find out more of Leo\'s character through this.

"Wait..." Leo said as he slowly took out all the other valuable items that he had taken out from the dead Black organization\'s men. At the same time, Evangelion could only helplessly clean all the stuff he had taken out.

"24 Spell Engraved Paper, 10 Unidentified potions, 6 Magic Bracelets and Necklaces, and a Teleportation Scroll!" Evangelion reported after identifying all the items that Leo had found.

"Oh, okay then!" Madam Silva agreed after seeing that all the stuff that Leo wanted to sell was also Magical related items, "By the way, where did you find this Teleportation Scroll and the other stuff?" She suddenly asked.

"From the dead the Black organization\'s men." Leo said, sounding seemingly nonchalant.

"What!" Madam Silva and Evangelion exclaimed in unison.

"Ehem, excuse me... Do you mean to say that all of these items were from the Black organization?" Madam Silva asked.

"Are you serious?" Evangelion immediately followed up since he was also feeling doubtful about Leo\'s claim.

"Yeah, I unexpectedly stumbled upon them during my mission at North Sewer Management. They wanted to kill me, so I killed all of them first to defend myself." Leo quickly explained. Naturally, he needed to make some lies in order for his secret not to be exposed to Madam Silva and Evangelion. After all, the Sword and Magic were also looking for any leads to the Black organization.

"Just like what I had expected from you!" Madam Silva said as she let out a laugh, "Along with all these items, I would also like to buy the information you have learned about the Black organization!" She suddenly proposes.

Information about the Black organization was something really important to the Sword and Magic organization. Apparently, they discovered that the Black organization wasn\'t just active in the Silver Kingdom, but also throughout all the other Human Kingdoms and Empires, the organization even had branches found in Foreign races Kingdoms and Empires.

No one knows what the Black organization\'s real purpose of existence or establishment was, aside from their core members. So, any information related about them was hard to find.

The Sword and Magic spies were also having a hard time infiltrating the Black organization, so they could only get information by buying them through reliable Informants or otherwise more known as the Rats from the Underground World.

However, one thing the Sword and Magic knew about the Black organization\'s existence in a Kingdom or an Empire was the fact that their goal is to cause destruction. In fact, there was already a record of the Black organization successfully destroying a few Human Kingdoms at this present moment.

That was why Madam Silva immediately proposed to buy information about the Black organization from Leo. Aside from that, she was sure that he had some information about the organization with him. She also wanted to know about the organization\'s whereabouts in order for her to stop them from destroying another Human Kingdom.

With how familiar Madam Silva was to Leo, she obviously understood immediately that the reason he had explained to them was not really the entire truth. It might even be a half lie and half-truth, a full lie, or he might even just be someone hunting them down like them.

"You got me..." Leo could only give up hiding what just happened in the North Sewer Management, since Madam Silva had obviously got an idea already that he had lied, specifically that he didn\'t actually stumble upon them, but had instead gone directly to find them.

However, this time around, Leo would take into consideration to be extremely careful in explaining to Madam Silva in case of giving some sort of information about him being a part of the Mischievous Lion organization or otherwise more known by the Sword and Magic as the Smiling Lion. After all, just a while now, she could quickly catch on to him lying just from their very short conversation. Catching him on in another lie could obviously happen once again if ever he\'s not careful with his words.

Well, it was actually because Madam Silva had a high evaluation of Leo and was also already familiar with his character. So, she could find out shortly after whether he was just lying or telling the truth. In fact, she could already tell what Leo was thinking about, though only sometimes.

Still, being careful was not a bad thing to do. There might be some other unexpected variables that might cause Leo\'s secret to be exposed. Better be safe than sorry, right?

"Huh? I don\'t understand... Did something that I don\'t know about just happened?" Evangelion suddenly voiced out. He was currently confused about what is currently happening.

Madam Silva out of nowhere proposed that she would buy information about the Black organization from Leo, and the latter quickly saying, "You got me..." was indeed really confusing for Evangelion. Even other people would also find it confusing.

"Is my IQ so low, or did the two of you just communicated using other means?" Evangelion helplessly said.

"Just listen and don\'t talk!" Madam Silva ordered, immediately causing Evangelion to stand still and close his mouth shut.

"I only know a few, is that okay...?" Leo asked, which Madam Silva just nodded her head in reply.

Leo clears his throat as he began explaining, "Black organization has branches all over the cities within the Northern Region of Silver Kingdom, specifically Black Hammer for the Williams city, Black Tree for the Will city, Black Bees for the Honoris city, Black River for the White River city, Black Skull for Crystal Skull city, and Black Snowflakes for the Snow city."

"The Black organization believed in the so-called Dark God and their rankings are separated into 5 different colored tokens; Bronze, Silver, Gold, Red, and the Black. Rumors said there are higher ranks, but I still don\'t have any confirmation to that."

"The last information I know is; they are currently trying to do something around Silver city. I don\'t know what it is yet, but I will try to stop them if I\'m given the opportunity to do so." Leo said as he finally concluded some information about the Black organization without giving some information about his secret.

Madam Silva just showed a smile on her face to express her satisfaction as she said, "What do you need this time? Last time, you told me to just save the money you earned for the time being, would you also want to do the same thing this time or will you be using it now?"

"And also, all the arrows for the Glacier Bow that you had requested are already delivered to your villa. So, I don\'t owe you anything now." Madam Silva added.

"Hehehe, sorry for the trouble... Can I still asked for you to keep the money?" Leo said while feeling a bit embarrassed. What his doing was actually the same as treating Madam Silva as his personal bank, so feeling embarrassed about it was understandable.

Fortunately, Madam Silva wasn\'t a narrow-minded person. She only nodded her head in reply as she took a piece of paper from under her table and writing a few numbers on it before putting it back inside again. That piece of paper was obviously where she writes the total amount of money that Leo had stored on her in case she forgot about it.

Actually, there was no need for Leo to feel embarrassed at all. Madam Silva even preferred doing business like this because she doesn\'t need to take anything in their treasury at the moment, hence it wasn\'t really that troublesome.

Well, the exact trouble that Madam Silva really meant about was actually; if Leo decided to take the money every time he sold them something, then the accountants would need to do adjustments in the book every now and then. Though they do that every day, but due to Leo\'s items being labeled as "Extra", since it was sold in full secrecy, it had then added more workload, adding to the fact too that the amount of money involved was actually in hundreds of thousands of gold coins. So, it would turn out to be too troublesome if Leo didn\'t decide to bank the money with Madam Silva. At the least, it would only cause them trouble until Leo finally decided to use his money.

After Leo\'s explanation, Evangelion finally got a clue about what just happened. Madam Silva had apparently seen again another something that he was incapable of seeing or understanding. He really felt pity towards himself. The gap between him and her seems like to only widen and widen, causing him to become helpless again and again.

If this will go on, then Evangelion\'s dream of becoming a Head of all the branches of the Sword and Magic in a specific Kingdom or Empire one day would become far from coming true...

"I need to learn more!" Evangelion said in his mind.

After finishing all of that, Leo finally bid his farewell to Madam Silva and Evangelion as he decided to return back to the villa.
