The villainous prince who bullied Feng Aotian was actually myself.

Moses stepped back and gave Leon a solemn bow.

"Yes, I believe in you. You can definitely show me a better Yiling City."

Leon smiled and patted Moses on the shoulder, then turned and walked toward Hawkeye by the door.

He genuinely hoped that Moses could take control of Zero City and make it powerful.

Chairman Mao once said, "Political power grows out of the barrel of a gun."

If you want to have a voice in front of others, you must make them fear you.

Leon realized this from the very first day he arrived in the world; he had to cultivate his own people and his own power.

The main thing is to cultivate Feng Aotian; she is the key to solving all problems.

Next is Hazel, who is also key. In the later stages, the Sword Saint Hazel is basically invincible.

Then, Rosen can be trained to be his first knight. As for Moses, it would be good to have him serve as a support in Izero City. This way, if there is any real need to move towards the Dragon Icefield in the future, it will be much more convenient.

Then he wanted to befriend the Hayden family. If possible, Leon wanted to bring down one of the three dukes of the empire and have the Marquis of Hayden take his place as the Duke of Hayden.

As for the others, I haven't thought about them yet. Let's focus on achieving these goals first.

Sigh, in the end, I still have to go down the path of character development.

However, aside from character development, Leon felt he had no other options.

How to make yourself stronger?

It's quite difficult. One person can never defeat a group of people. Even a god will fall when faced with a vast number of ants.

Moreover, angels also possess the ability to slay gods, and the strongest fighting force in the human camp is the angels.

The reason we use the human faction here is because angels are not human, but gods.

"Your Highness."

"Let's go back to Guberlan."

Hawkeye was about to say something, but Leon interrupted him.

It was afternoon when I walked out of the city hall with Hawkeye.

The wind in Illusion City was still strong, howling and lashing against people, carrying a chilling, frost-like feel.

The strong winds carried sand, preventing Leon from fully opening his eyes.

Today is the second day since the letter was sent to Caesar. Given the extraordinary methods and speed of information transmission in this world, it would be extremely fast if there were no interference.

Sure enough, this morning, Leon received an urgent recall order from Caesar, who ordered Leon to return to the palace immediately and not to stay in Illidan or leave the palace.

This is essentially a stay-at-home order.

At this point in time, according to the original anime, the Coral Sea Campaign will be over in about a week.

Caesar probably planned to deal with his rebellious son personally after returning to the palace.

What's meant to happen will happen eventually.

We'll have to face Caesar sooner or later, so let's take this opportunity to completely resolve the issue of Helena with him.

As Leon walked along the road, he kept thinking about what he should do when he met Caesar.

Helena and the others should be almost at the Snow City by now, right?

No, it shouldn't be that fast. With Helena and her group's current strength, crossing the Izero Mountains would be about the same speed as a normal adventure team.

After sitting in the carriage and bouncing around on the grassland for a while, Leon returned to the place where the airship had landed when he first arrived at the Illidan Grassland.

Bennett and the others will stay behind to continue working on the case in Zero City, so the only other people here are the pilot of Leon's main airship, the steam room workers, and Hawkeye, who is responsible for protecting Leon.

The city of Illo is relatively poor and backward. Apart from a handful of local nobles, no one can afford to ride an airship, so Leon couldn't buy motion sickness medication there.

The food Hazel gave him had already been eaten last time.

This flight was exceptionally painful for Leon.

ps...

Chapter Eighty: Sword Warrior

Compared to the dizziness and nausea that comes with airsickness, Leon thinks it's better to be completely airsick.

After analyzing the pros and cons, Leon ultimately decided to trust Hawkeye this time, so he insisted that Hawkeye knock him out.

Someone actually asked him to knock him out... This isn't really that strange, since it's not the first time Hawkeye has encountered something like this.

However, if it were a prince, Hawkeye wouldn't dare to make a move.

Hawkeye initially refused, but eventually he couldn't resist Leon's persistent pleading and delivered a karate chop to Leon's shoulder, knocking him unconscious.

A Gold-level hunter can slap a buffalo down with one blow, but Hawkeye, a King-level hunter... well, it's hard to explain. Anyway, when Leon arrived in Guberlan and was shaken awake after getting off the plane, he still felt a soreness in his shoulder.

"Sir, you're quite ruthless. I'm just a mithril-level mage, and my main strength isn't in physical enhancement. I should be able to knock you unconscious with a light tap, right?"

Leon followed Hawkeye out of the airship and onto the carpet laid out by the welcoming knights. He rubbed his shoulders and muttered to himself.

"Uh... Your Highness, I'm sorry."

Hawkeye gave a good-natured smile.

"It's nothing, it's nothing. I should be thanking you."

Leon chuckled and joked that he had been with Hawkeye for quite some time and felt there was no need to be so reserved in his speech.

However, when Leon saw the dashing figure standing at the end of the red carpet, his smile vanished instantly.

Hawkeye had actually noticed it a while ago, but he didn't think much of it and didn't remind Leon.

The person who greeted Leon at the end of the red carpet was dressed in silver-white soft armor with a red cape, a longsword at his waist, and white knight's gloves. He was over 1.75 meters tall, almost 1.8 meters.

This person had short, light yellow hair styled in an elegant, slightly parted style. He had handsome features, and his brown eyes were full of heroic spirit. In particular, his high and straight nose was comparable to Leon's handsome nose.

Overall, he is a handsome man with good looks.

However, the imperial high command all knew that this guy was actually a woman...

Her name is Hebrew Rebecca, one of the three heroes of the Empire who received divine recognition, known as the Sword Hero, the foremost of the Empire's three heroes, and the most valued and outstanding student of Seth Gladstone, the First Knight of Fchester. Currently, her strength is approximately at the Platinum level, and with the blessing of divine power, she can easily defeat low-level demigods.

Leon, one of the three heroes and the hero of the art of praise, is the weakest of the three. Although he has gained the approval of the Divine Warrior, he cannot control the power of the Divine Warrior, so his combat strength is actually not high...

Of course, this is related to the fact that the original owner did not focus on improving his own strength, but was obsessed with all kinds of fancy magic experiments. Although they were not serious, they were probably the more useful things the original owner did.

Some of the original owner's research results were actually quite useful, but Leon couldn't use them right now. However, Leon had a feeling that those things were valuable.

If Leon hadn't been so busy improving his strength after transmigrating to this world, he wouldn't still be stuck at the Mithril level.

If Caesar hadn't interfered and instead confined Leon to the palace, it might not have been a bad thing for him.

Although that would mean Leon would essentially make his debut in politics and then withdraw from it, thus completely diminishing the political influence he had painstakingly built, it would also mean that Leon could finally relax and focus on improving his abilities.

"Welcome home, Your Highness."

No matter how long the journey, the road is only so long, and Leon eventually reached the swordsman.

So Jian Yong took the initiative to greet her with a light smile. Her voice was a rather androgynous, masculine voice, which reminded Leon of the popular "Xiao Rizi" ID influencer on Douyin (TikTok) who became famous for her "pure and innocent" image. Besides her, there were many other beautiful women with sweet appearances and masculine voices.

As a seasoned "beauty collector," Leon has collected and followed quite a few of these girls on his Douyin account.

"Hebrew, shouldn't you be in the Coral Sea?"

Leon did not address her as "Miss" because Hebrew disliked being addressed that way; on the contrary, she preferred to be called "Sir Hebrew" or "Mr Hebrew."

However, Leon really didn't want to call this tomboy that, so he just called her by her name. Anyway, in terms of status, he was a prince, and even if her father came, he could still scold him behind his back.

There's nothing we can do about it; we can only blame the era itself. Feudal monarchical autocracy is just that tyrannical and unreasonable, and Leon just happened to be born into the most tyrannical and unreasonable family.

"His Majesty has ordered me to return and assist Your Highness until His Majesty returns to the capital."

Hebrew answered.

"Hmm, I see. Okay, let's go back to the palace."

Tsk,

Did Caesar send you back to monitor me, and even to assist me?

The capital city truly lives up to its name; the more wicked a person is, the more eloquent their words become.

Haha, blanched.

Leon stayed in Bengbu for the entire city, but he remained remarkably calm.

Along the way, Hawkeye walked on his left and Hebrew on his right. None of the three spoke, and they entered the royal carriage that had been waiting for a long time.

In the carriage, none of the three spoke much; they sat quietly, each pondering their own affairs.

Hebrew appears to be a charming and handsome nobleman, but in reality, he is nothing more than a perverted man who enjoys toying with young girls.

And she only sleeps with virgins, girls she's ruined...

In the original anime, she took a liking to Helena and wanted to play with her, so Helena turned the tables on her and forced her to kill her. Helena hadn't originally planned to kill her; it's more accurate to say that she delivered herself to Helena's doorstep.

How to put it? In the end, it was all succumbed to lust.

Helena then obtained the Hebrew Divine Weapon and successfully gained its approval, greatly increasing her strength. In her battle with Leon, she managed to kill Hawkeye, one of the Three Heroes.

Of course, that was Helena at the later Obsidian level, nearing full stars. The current Helena is only at Platinum level, so if we follow the original timeline, Helena's death is still quite far off.

The Hebrews cannot be allowed to live that long; the longer this pervert lives, the more young girls will suffer.

In order to save the beautiful girls, Leon felt he had to do something to hasten the death of the Hebrews.

After all, Hebrew is positioned as a villain destined to die, just like me, only a little better off than me, belonging to the later villains. So, killing her should be considered in accordance with the will of Heaven, right? Because she was destined to die anyway.

but……

It's really difficult to kill the Hebrews.

When Hebrew is equipped with the Divine Might state, she is basically like a cockroach; at least in terms of pure combat, it is very difficult to kill her.

In addition, her divine weapon must fall into Helena's hands.

hiss~

Leon took a light breath.

Forget it, there's no chance right now. Let's figure out how to deal with Caesar first.

P.S.: Next month is almost here, so I'm asking for monthly votes in advance. Because I've been getting a lot of flak from the editor, and because my reading is currently stable, please give me another chance to get recommended. So starting tomorrow, I can update twice a day, definitely twice a day! My dear readers, my revival depends on you all, inginging…

Chapter 81 A chilling thought

Three days have passed since the day I returned to the palace.

Having been stripped of his political rights, the Third Duke has been leading the cabinet in coordinating political affairs, leaving Leon with a lot of free time.

The only problem is that there's this annoying tomboy around who keeps coming over to harass... no, I should say she's spying on him. This is causing Leon a lot of distress, to the point that Leon really wants to pin Hebrew to the ground, force her to wear the little dress she hates the most, and get some serious revenge.

Of course, this is just wishful thinking, because if they were to actually fight Hebrew, the one who would be pinned to the ground and forced to wear a little skirt would be Leon himself. The reason is simple: Leon is no match for Hebrew.

There were no heavy political duties to bear, and apart from being restricted in their freedom and unable to leave the palace, it didn't seem like there was anything wrong with it.

Leon has been living a leisurely life these past few days, spending his days eating, sleeping, and reading. He also uses the excuse of researching magic to keep Hebrew at the laboratory, where he usually spends an entire afternoon. During these afternoons, Leon is actually quietly improving his strength.

In this world, cultivation and spiritual enhancement represent an improvement in one's realm. At the same time, various bodily functions will also be strengthened along with the improvement of spirituality.

To enhance one's spirituality, one must acquire the abilities and skills required for learning one's chosen profession.

Once you learn the skills corresponding to the level of your chosen profession, your spirituality will be enhanced.

It's roughly about cultivating spirituality by learning new and increasingly powerful skills; that's the gist of it.

Just like exercising, if you run every day, your lung capacity will improve; if you do push-ups every day, your arm muscles will improve; and if you do sit-ups every day, you will gradually develop the sexy abs that girls crave.

The same applies to spiritual cultivation. If you persist in learning the skills of a related profession, then you are cultivating your spirituality.

This is the cultivation method of this world.

So Leon is indeed still using magic, but it helps to enhance his strength, making it a higher-level magic than the magic he currently possesses.
