Chapter 1062: Runemaster Tower

"Since the mutant's entrance was found in a place crossed off the search list, many people find it strange," Leon started speaking.

"If they ponder deeper, they would also realize that someone tried to sabotage the search and hide the mutants' tracks. Eventually, they will also arrive at the same conclusion that there was a traitor in the clan."

"Considering Lord Rhuvek already had people sent the report to the main clan, I believe it will only be a matter of time before there's a major upheaval in the Dark Elf Clan. People will definitely look into the truth behind the sabotaged investigation."

"When that happens, you will most likely be in danger, Lord Rhuvek," Leon stated.

"Do you think there will be other traitors aiming for life because I—no, because you found the mutants' entrance, Lord Leon? But in that case, the traitors should be aiming for you," Lord Rhuvek thought with furrowed brows.

"Perhaps, they would," Leon didn't deny the possibility before adding, "However, I won't be staying in your city for long. After completing our first trade, I plan to return to the surface to finish some businesses of my own."

"And while I am gone, the traitors will naturally think of you, the one who allowed the report and findings to go through and reach the main clan and the clan leader himself," Leon stated.

After Lord Rhuvek heard that, he frowned deeply.

Lord Leon had a point.

However, there was one that Lord Leon missed – or at least, Lord Rhuvek believed Lord Leon missed.

"It might be as bad as you think, Lord Leon. If the hidden traitors truly aim for my life, it would prove that there are more traitors within the clan. I doubt that is what the traitors would want," Lord Rhuvek said before adding, "Besides, I am a Mid Paragon. Few dark elves are my opponents."

"Although Lord Rhuvek is a Paragon, we don't know the number of traitors nor their strength," Leon argued.

"I don't want to sound pessimistic or alarmist, but the traitors could be anyone. It could be another city lord or even multiple city lords. Thus, there is still a certain level of danger posed to your life. It would be in your best interest to be careful."

"Furthermore, your thinking is too simple, Lord Rhuvek. Do you really believe that a single person could have blindsided the whole Dark Elf Clan regarding the mutants' tracks for so many years? There must be more than one accomplice."

"The traitors will still target you regardless of whether the clan knows about them or not," Leon stated.

However, Lord Rhuvek was confused.

"But what can the traitors achieve with my death?" Lord Rhuvek furrowed his brows and said, "I doubt the traitors would simply target my life out of pettiness for making the report to the main clan."

"If the traitors are trying to destroy the clan or achieve something by working with the mutants, they should be aiming for something bigger. They won't achieve anything with my death and would also risk exposing themselves in the process."

"You are underestimating your self-worth, and you are also underestimating my worth, Lord Rhuvek," Leon calmly stated.

"What do you mean, Lord Leon?"

"You sent your men to report the details of your findings and the completion of the mission, Lord Rhuvek. The whole Dark Elf Clan will know that I helped you eliminate the mutants and slaughtered over a thousand Paragon-level insects."

"Do you think the traitors would want to keep someone connected to such a powerful person who interferes with their plans alive?"

"Probably not," Lord Rhuvek frowned. He understood Lord Leon's reasoning, but he still found it a bit farfetched.

"Nevertheless, I am just stating a possibility. There's no telling what the traitors would do when we know so little about them. But just because it's a possibility, it doesn't mean you should ignore it, Lord Rhuvek."

"Right…" Lord Rhuvek nodded.

Sometime later, Leon and Lord Rhuvek moved on to discuss their trade. Leon was prepared to make a generous offer for the Dark Elf Clan's runic knowledge.

However, Lord Rhuvek was too embarrassed to take anything from Leon after all the help they received from him.

Thus, Leon was permitted to freely peruse the runic knowledge from their Runemaster Tower's library without a price. But if he wanted to take any tome out of the library, he would have to pay an adequate price.

Nevertheless, did not need to take anything out of the library; he simply needed to record a copy in the Archive.

Thinking how he was about to obtain the seventh branch clan's entire runic knowledge for free, Leon insisted on giving Lord Rhuvek a sizeable amount of sea monster meat.

Whether it was out of guilt or not, it wasn't a bad idea to build more goodwill with Lord Rhuvek and the Dark Elf Clan's seventh branch.

"Since Lord Leon insists, I have no choice but to accept," Lord Rhuvek politely received the huge lump of sea monster meat. After he stored it inside his interspatial storage, he asked, "Would you like to visit our Runemaster Tower's library now, Lord Leon?"

"If you have no other matters to discuss with me, Lord Rhuvek," Leon calmly nodded.

Although Lord Rhuvek still had many things he wanted to learn from Leon, he chose not to delay Leon's business.

"No, Lord Leon," Lord Rhuvek shook his head before suddenly recalling, "Oh right, please keep this on you and display it when you wish to visit our city or use any of our public facilities. The people will not inconvenience you."

A white crystal was handed to Leon. It contained some runic information stored inside and appeared to be a type of status plate for identification.

"When the dark elves of the seventh branch clan see the displayed information in the white crystal, they will give you the same respect as they give me," Lord Rhuvek added.

"I see. Thank you, Lord Rhuvek. This will be helpful."

"Haha, it's nothing compared to the help we received from you. Now, let me guide you to our Runemaster Tower."

"Alright."

Leon calmly agreed with a nod.
