Hearing Leo\'s question, almost everyone immediately began contemplating in their minds. To be honest, they have also thought of what Leo had thought in his mind, but for them, whether the Snow Noble Household would help the Silver royal family or not, it would still not mean anything because the war would still be won by the Mischievous Blue Sword Alliance in the end. It was only now that they have realized those crucial points that Leo meant through his words.

"I understand what you meant about, and I\'m not actually against saving both Veronica and Princess Tiana. What I\'m against is you taking this mission personally. Anyone can accept this mission, except for you!" Queen Olivia pointed her finger at Leo. She wasn\'t stupid to not see what Leo also sees, considering the fact that she was the one who had taught him to become such a capable person. The only problem is, Leo is the Commander of the Mischievous Blue Sword Alliance. And although his only task is to make strategies for the battle, he\'s presence on the battlefield is still needed the most, especially during this battle because this fight would completely depend on the army not on her, Queen Maria, Madam Silva, and Elder Rain like the battle against the Black organization. They can easily distract King Erskine and those other people that can cause a huge threat to the soldiers, but the Silver royal family\'s soldiers inside the Silver city would be a different story, since they are much more powerful compared to the members of Black organization that they have just fought against, and this story would entirely be reliant on how Leo would act. If he\'s missing, then it would be hard to win this battle.

"Indeed! Everyone here can volunteer, but you, as the Commander of the army, can\'t. You are the head of the Mischievous Blue Sword Alliance. If this head is missing, then the army would not be any different from a headless chicken. Although there are still Vice-Commanders, Elders, Guardians, Generals, Captains, and other commanding officials in the Mischievous Blue Sword Alliance, those people would still mostly rely on you during the battle. They can adjust and adapt to any minor changes during the battle, but the major changes would entirely be up to you to decide." Queen Maria supported.

"Aside from what Queen Olivia and Queen Maria had mentioned, the mission you are talking about would not only require you to rescue Veronica and Princess Tiana, but to also help them think of a way to escape during your run, and this might even require you to sacrifice your own life." Madam Silva added.

"To be honest, what they are saying is just a bunch of excuses, or more appropriately it is not the real reason why they are against you taking this mission." Elder Rain rolled his eyes at Queen Olivia, Queen Maria, and Madam Silva\'s words. He then continued, "The major reason why they are against it, is that you cannot die! Why? In Queen Olivia\'s case, you are one of her soon-to-be Prince once she conquers the Silver Kingdom, her brother-in-law, and also someone she treated as her own son. In Queen Maria\'s case, you are going to be her son-in-law in order to establish a perfect alliance with the Mischievous Lion organization. And lastly, in Madam Silva\'s case, I don\'t know what exactly it is, but base on how much she had invested in you, then it should be because she needs your help in the near future that\'s why she\'s helping you to become strong, though I don\'t know what kind of help she needed."

After hearing Elder Rain\'s explanation, Leo finally understood why they were against it. It wasn\'t actually because it\'s unnecessary to save Veronica and Princess Tiana, it\'s a suicidal mission, or he\'s the Commander of the Mischievous Blue Sword Alliance, like what they had said, but rather because he\'s important to all of them.

"So it\'s a personal reason?" Leo turned to look at Queen Olivia, Queen Maria, and Madam Silva, which the three immediately started whistling, which just confirmed that it\'s true.

"I won\'t be hiding anything from you anymore. The truth is, in this battle against the Silver royal family, you would unfortunately only stay on the sideline and command the soldiers. Not because we don\'t need you to personally fight in this battle that\'s why you can just stay on the sideline, but rather because you might do some stupid things in order to rescue Veronica." Elder Rain paused before he continued explaining, "We all know that she\'s one of your women, and although you don\'t seem to fully accept the idea of having a harem yet, we still can\'t remove the fact that your judgment might get affected by her. Hence, for this battle, the Commander will no longer be you, it will be transferred to me! But still, you will have the command of the soldiers."

"I..." Leo was surprised the moment he heard Elder Rain\'s words. He can actually understand the first part where he is important to them, hence he can\'t die, but what do they mean about him being affected by Veronica? If she dies, then she dies, that\'s a very simple result, right? Or maybe they see something else...

Unbeknownst to Leo, what he had assumed was actually the truth. Queen Olivia, Queen Maria, Madam Silva, and Elder Rain can see with their own eyes a part of Fate that Leo holds, though not the specific Fate of his future, but they can clearly see the red strings of Fate attached to 7 different people from something inside of him, which most likely include Veronica who is currently in the hands of the Silver royal family.

Queen Olivia, Queen Maria, and Madam Silva know that this is a variable that they can\'t risk. They have already discussed this before, specifically when Karl was first brought to them and him telling them about the current situation of the Silver royal family. And all three of them agreed that Leo will stay at the sideline because red string meant trouble related to love, which simply means Leo might do something stupid related to love, which is what normally happens.

On the other hand, Elder Rain knows exactly what those red strings of Fate imply, because his parents have already taught him everything they know about the Red Cube. And in fact, aside from red strings, there are also different string colors implying to different kinds of relationships Leo will have with different people. And all of this is the Red Cube\'s way of helping Leo in his path to fighting against the Gods in the near future.

Only Special Mages can see those other colors of string though and understand it as well because just like Leo, the Special Mages also hold their own secrets brought by their own unique capability. And these secrets are almost all related to Fate, which all began from the Red Cube.

Reinhart has just confirmed the truth of this information when he himself has become a Special Mage, and this was also what his parents had told him in the past. What they told him was, "Every Special Mages in the entire Celestial World will one day be brought upon together by a great power, and this great power is the beginning of all of those invisible strings that we can see all around us, which is the Red Cube. The Gods can\'t see what lies ahead in their future, implying to Fate, that\'s why the Red Cube used Fate to communicate with the powers of the Celestial World. However, because the Red Cube is still extremely weak right now, we will help the Red Cube gather those people together."

Unfortunately, while Reinhart\'s parents were gathering those people, they had died alongside those Special Mages they have gathered. And so the reason why he doesn\'t agree with Leo rescuing Veronica. Gathering those who have a string connected to the Red Cube comes with great risk. He can\'t allow Leo to face that just yet, because he is still weak right now, extremely weak.

"You can still suggest what kind of strategies we will use and command the soldiers, or even have a Vice-Commander title. The only requirement is for you to stay on the sideline and not fight on the battlefield." Queen Olivia proposed.

"No, as long as you don\'t fight on the battlefield, you can choose whatever position you want or whatever you want to do!" Queen Maria corrected.

"Will you agree with that?" Madam Silva turned to look at Leo, who was now wearing a very solemn face.

Suddenly, Leo\'s serious face turned to calm before he replied, "If that\'s what you all want, then I will follow!"

"Great!" Queen Olivia clasped her hand together with a smile.

"Then let\'s begin with the plan!" Queen Maria motioned her hand for everyone to come forward to propose ideas for their strategy against the Silver royal family.

"Leo?" Madam Silva who had noticed Leo wasn\'t stepping forward suddenly asked.

"I will not join in thinking of the strategy since I\'m no longer a Commander. All of you can handle it anyway, and you are also much more experienced than me, so there is no need for me to involve myself." Leo said before turning around and walking out of the command tent.

"Okay!" Queen Olivia, Queen Maria, and Madam Silva nodded their heads in understanding, except for Elder Rain, who shoot Leo a doubtful look, thinking that what Leo had said should not be what he really wanted to say.
