Chapter 549 - Start

"Kyu!" Ava made a cute smile and kicked Leonardo in the stomach.

"Wh—" Leonardo widened his eyes and instinctively formed a shield around the spot, blocking Ava's punch.

That translucent golden shield immediately neutralized her lightning and repelled her brute force, knocking her away.

"Kyu…" Ava spun a few times in the air while watching how Leonardo waved his sword to the side and escaped through that place without using his skill.

After destroying the Magic Bullets and leaving the encirclement, he halted his steps and raised his hand. "Hahahaha! We're done here."

"…" Theo fell silent and stared at him with a weird expression.

"Ava was it?" Leonardo gave a thumbs up, "You're good. First of all, you have the right to join this battle, considering you're Theo's partner. However, it seems he has no idea about this sneak attack, so I will stop our fight here because we have the winner.

"For this fight, you're the winner." Leonardo smirked and asked, "I have collections of blood and meat… I think it can make you stronger, right? Do you want it?"

"Kyu?!" Ava widened her eyes, looking at him with expectation. However, she stopped for a moment and glanced at Theo.

"Only one person could win." Leonardo stuck his tongue out, telling Theo that he wouldn't get the prize.

Obviously, Ava wasn't comfortable seeing Theo was thrown out of the picture just like that, so she wanted to refuse this offer.

However, her plan failed when Theo said, "What kind of blood and meat are they? If you're talking about Hero Rank monster's materials. I can't help but feel you're a bit stingy."

"Haha. Of course, they're Supreme Rank monsters. Unfortunately, I don't think giving you a Mythical Rank Expert monster is appropriate currently." Leonardo shrugged.

"Fine. I will take that." Theo nodded without hesitation, not caring about the fact he didn't get anything from this exchange.

Seeing his reaction, Leonardo couldn't help but smile. Although he didn't want to admit it, Ava seemed to be closer than his family. He was sad not to be included, but he was satisfied that Theo cared for his new family, even after getting some of the truth about the whole conspiracy.

At the very least, Theo's children wouldn't need to suffer what their father had experienced.

"Okay, okay." Leonardo chuckled. "I won't be that stingy as well. Ava may be the winner, but since you're her partner, I am going to give you a few tips and tricks later."

Theo nodded calmly before glancing at Ava. "No need to worry about me. You shouldn't reject it just because I don't get anything."

"Kyu!" Ava's eyes glazed before she leaped to his shirt and clung to it. "Kyu, kyu!"

Theo smiled and stroked her head a few times.

"Anyway, I will be bringing the catalog later for her to choose from. She seems to be smart enough to know what she wants to eat or not… To be honest, not many have a Rare Class Monster as their pet, considering they have too much pride to be tamed." Leonardo scratched the back of his head. "At the same time, your rabbit seems to be smarter than most of them."

"Okay." Theo nodded while remembering the promise he made to Avarice. He wasn't going to force Ava to eat something she didn't like, so she could choose the meat and the blood.

"As for you…" Leonardo thought for a moment and sighed. "Do you want to know the harsh truth or a good encouragement?"

Theo furrowed his eyebrows and shook his head helplessly. "I believe you already know my answer."

"I guess." Leonardo let out a long sigh and said without a single lie. "You are not worthy of learning about strategy and stuff. Do you know what's the strongest weapon in this world?"

"Absolute Power?"

"Nah." Leonardo raised his finger. "It's information. Knowing whether your opponents have ten Mythical Rank Experts and a secret weapon or not will give you the necessary security to execute your plan rather than knowing nothing."

"Information." Theo looked down.

"To be honest, your condition is too severe. First of all, you have no knowledge about this world as a whole because of your childhood. Then, you have skipped too many classes back in your school. Hence, you have no idea how to make a long-term plan.

"If you have the information, you can speculate and strike your enemies in perfect timing. There is also the fact you have enough time to create several assurances to ensure your plan's success. Hence, what you need to do right now is not about how to make a plan and other stuff… Instead, you need to start learning the state of this world.

"What is the power from each country, what is their current problem, what's the state of the politics there? And how much they can bring to destroy you." Leonardo smiled. "I know that learning all this information won't be helping you in your Martial Prowess, but this is something necessary to understand which path you want to take in the future.

"My task for you is to learn the information I give you within the next three months. I believe you will have four hours of sleep at night and three hours to train every day with my schedule. To put it simply, economy, politics, military, monster's glossary, and other subjects… I am going to cram all that knowledge into you within three months.

"People said young people love to show your achievement and reveal your prowess, making this studying stuff so boring. Hence, I want to ask you this, are you ready for hell?"

Theo closed his eyes for a moment and knew he might not have some good breakthrough for his strength in the next few months, allowing the others to catch up to him. However, in order to secure his future, Theo said, "I am ready."

"Good." Leonardo nodded. "Let's see how long you can keep up with this boring stuff."

Leonardo took out a Skylink and tossed it to him.

"This is the material you need to cover for the next three months. I will be fighting you every week… I mean, fighting you in the battle of politics, economy, and stuff like that. I hope you can be a worthy opponent."

"I understand…" Theo looked at the Skylink and took a deep breath.
