The Conspiracy of the Elites

Chapter 238: leos life and hidden undercurrents

In the Spartan republic, in the headquarters of the Python military division, Leonard stood on the roof of his mansion, looking at the beautiful scenery of the military division that was before him.

Though he was not smiling, his facial expression showed that he was happy. It seemed like he was grinning, crying, and laughing at the same time.

He suddenly raised his hands upwards, inclined his head upwards before speaking out a barely audible word at the heavens. No one else heard it, but the word rang in his head loudly.

As the morning breeze blew at his steady figure, his military uniform waved a bit but remained stuck to his body.

After so long of serving the Spartan army through the Python military division, he finally got another promotion some days ago. His rank, salary, prestige, and a lot of other things increased with this promotion.

He felt fulfilled. He felt like his hard work for the past few years was finally paying him back. Nothing in the world was as sweet as working earnestly and getting earnestly paid for it.

And, he already bought his own mansion in the Python military division headquarters. If this was not worth feeling fulfilled for, then what was?

Thinking back, when he was small, he never even dreamt of living in his own house one day. But now he had his mansion, not just a house, but a mansion.

Mom, Dad, I wish you were here to enjoy the prosperous me.

Thinking of this, his brows dropped a bit and his eyes softened. The wind took this opportunity to hit them, drawing the tears that he was trying to hold back out.

Honey, the food is ready! Come down before you get late, you dont want to draw your Captains ire on your first day reporting to duty after your promotion.

A loud feminine voice suddenly reverberated to the roof, startling him. He was a little irritated by how the voice just disrupted his thoughts but thinking of the owner of the voice, his complaints faded away like the wind.

Ok, Ill be right there in a moment. He finally wiped the tears away, made sure his face was dry before smoothly climbing down from the roof of the mansion.

Unlike Clarks enormous mansion where dozens of workers had to take care of the day-to-day activities, his mansion was more compact, hence they had only a female maid, a gatekeeper, and 2 soldiers who were his followers.

When he entered the large parlor through the main door, his sight first came upon his fiance immediately. The female maid was helping her meticulously to set the table.

You climbed the roof again, right? I know that youre a soldier, but please stop doing that, it makes me fear for your safety. Seeing her hubby to be, Kate started nagging immediately.

As she blabbered on, Leo did was no longer seeing her. All he was seeing was her long swaying hair, the beautiful contours on her face, her chubby cheeks, rosy lips that were tempting him to envelope them in a kiss, and her cute white uniform.

Hey, why are you staring at me like that. When he came closer, Kate finally noticed his stare despite facing somewhere else.

Before she could say any other thing, Leo gently grabbed her by the waist, carefully turned her around before planting a lovely kiss on her lips.

They stayed like that for about a minute before he finally parted, though reluctantly. Good morning, honey, he finally greeted.

Good morning, wait, you were crying again. Her tone suddenly grew soft, turning into a whisper as she said this. She didnt want the nearby maid to hear what she said.

Gosh, Leo, I already asked you to tell me what is wrong. What is wrong, really? She placed her hands on her hips.

Nothing, just some childhood memories. Leo removed her hands and placed his on her hips, before leading her to the round table so they could eat and go to work.

Kate knew that this gesture from him was just to divert her attention, but she didnt yield this time.

Youll have to tell me that memory this time. She demanded.

I already told you every notable memory about my childhood, which one do you want again? Leo asked exasperatedly while sitting down at the biggest chair in the middle of the table.

Hmph, I dont care, tell me everything, even the minor ones this time. Stop hiding things from me, I loathe it.

Yeah, I wont again. By the way, you look beautiful in your white dress. I feel blessed by the heavens, what a wonderful thing it is to marry a stunning doctor like you.

Kate blushed a bit from this as the maid was still there. Stop it, Leo, we are not married yet. She protested weakly.

Well be married in 2 weeks, what difference does that make? To me, we are already married.

It makes a lot of difference! She quickly added.

Maam, the dish is ready. The maid finally placed the last dish on the table, announced to Kate, greeted Leo respectfully before slowly walking out of the parlor.

Seeing that everything was set, this stopped their bickering as they both started digging into the food.

Your cooking skills keep on improving every day, youre really the perfect wife. Leo suddenly spoke out when most of the food on the table already disappeared.

Kate rolled her eyes. I didnt make it, Leah did.

Oh, but I can still feel your touch in it, he winked at her. By the way, when will you tell your sister to come back? We need her for the perfect organization of our marriage ceremony.

I already told her, she said that she appointed a vice-commander in her mercenary group, so she will come in 2 days.

Ok, thats good.

What of your friends, Clark and Benny. She asked while looking at him.

Umm, I dont really know. I dont know when they would come back from their mission.

I always dreamed of having my marriage with Clark and Benny there to cheer me on, but I dont think thats possible again. I cant wait to tie the knot with you.

Kate smiled. Well, let's just wish them luck.

Ok. Goodluck to Clark and Benny.

Good luck to Clark and Benny!

With that, they finally stood up satisfied. They cleaned their mouths, arranged their clothes before turning to leave for work. Leo held Kates hand as they both walked confidently to the door.

As soon as they stood up to leave, Leah, the maid came back to take the dishes away.

In a sense, they were both already living the ideal life of their dreams. Their only wish was for things to keep on getting better, they didnt want this life to disappear at all.

In a remote corner, in the West region of the Spartan republic. Up in the morning sky, unknown to the residents that were living in the nearby city, an enormous warship was hovering above the forest that was close by.

If the citizens or even the local authorities could see this, they would have freaked out as not only one warship was hovering there.

3 enormous warships that looked just like mountains when looked at directly hovered in the air on stealth, as they slowly moved forward across this region.

The warship that stood in the middle was the biggest, almost about 1km tall. The others were smaller but still enormous, they were all coated with black colors.

At the sides of the 3 ships stood a logo proudly. This was the logo representing the tumor of the Spartan republic, the Persian tigers terrorist organization.

In the largest warship that lumbered forward at the middle, in the innermost room of the warship, a large conference meeting was currently going on with dozens of the organizations upper echelons present.

Most of the upper echelons were based in other locations, so only their remote projections were there in the meeting.

All of the upper echelons had masks on, so none of them could be recognized just by looking at their faces.

The ones that came through remote projections were more extreme, only something like a black hole was projected in place of their face.

Most of them didnt even know themselves, but this was normal here. This was the rule of the terrorist organization.

They were all seated around a table. At the forefront and center of the stage sat the mysterious founder and leader of the terrorist organization, the vicious Achilles.

He was the one who single-handedly founded this large terrorist organization that was now the 2nd greatest rival and enemy of the Spartan republic, only below the Mocan republic.

Like the others, he had a mask on that depicted a roaring tiger. Most of the other upper echelons wore this same patterned mask.

Let the gathering begin. The leaders deep croaky voice like that of a frogs echoed out, as the others immediately sat uprightly.

One of the upper echelons stood up, materialized a thick book from the air before opening its pages. After opening to a certain page, he finally started speaking.

His informative speech lasted for over 2 hours, but none of the upper echelons showed signs of fatigue, nor were they bored. They all listened and watched attentively like patient wolves.

Another 10 minutes later, the upper echelon finally ended his speech and sat back down.

As soon as he sat down, murmurs emerged in the hall as the upper echelons discussed fervently among themselves. One of the pieces of information that were just given shocked them.

Silence!! The leaders voice suddenly reverberated across the hall, restoring total silence immediately.

After everyone kept quiet, he looked around at the upper echelons seated as his face soon turned into a vicious smile that could send chills down an enemys bones.

I didnt think that the Mocan republic would recover so fast, and even become so proactive again. It seems that the last lesson did not sink in, they are all really bastards.

You heard the speaker, the Mocan republic elected a new president. They already recovered from the civil strife brought about by the Spartan attack 3 years ago, now they want to retaliate.

This new president is really fierce. He even already started targeting the Spartans by sending his soldiers to the great Himalayan peaks, with the main goal of attacking and disrupting the Spartans mission.

I find all these funny and interesting, but I dont give a damn, this is all to our favor as long as the Spartan republic military might weakens.

Chief executor, I want you to take this most important news to the Spartan upper echelons. They always hated Leonidass rule, perhaps, we should lend them some more help.

Without them, our hold over the republic would not be this strong, so we have to help them at times like this. This is just like killing 2 birds with one stone.

Though the Mocans revealed it in codes, the message says that they are preparing for a war with the Spartan republic to avenge the humiliation 3 years ago.

The leader licked his lips. I love such wars the most, but the only problem is that they didnt indicate when the war will start. It may be tomorrow or even years.

Well, I dont care about the specifics as long as there is war. Help them with everything that they need, thats my only executive order in this gathering.

Discuss the rest among yourselves. With that, his remote projection puffed into a cloud of smoke.

As soon as he left, the other upper echelons started discussing energetically about the upcoming war. As most of them were soldiers, they loved wars the most as it was the greatest nourishment to improve.

The meeting went on for another 2 hours before everyone left.

Unknown to the Spartan republic, another undercurrent was being stirred under their noses. Perhaps, their day of retribution against their previous offensive was nearby.
