Chapter 208

"Hey, Hey, Hey... Calm down. Who did this to-" Before Leon could’ve completed his sentence, Adeline walked into the kitchen with a serious expression on her face.

"Leon Luster... You are coming with me. Now." She spoke in a loud and serious tone.

As soon as Leon heard this a serious expression appeared over his face.

"Yes." He replied as he started walking towards Adeline.

As soon as they get out of the kitchen, Adeline looked both sides in the corridor then turned around to look at Leon.

"Things are fucked up, Leon." Adeline spoke with a worried expression.

"Okay two things... First of all, if you ever shouted like that on me ever again, I will do something that you will not like and secondly... I think I might have a vague idea of what happened.

Justin’s mother forced all the servants to wear slave collars, so that she can prevent the news from leaking outside, right ?" Leon asked with a calm expression.

"She gave them a choice... Either leave or stay alive while wearing the collars. She promised that there will be no other limitations but they will be prohibited from saying a word about what they saw today and their families will stay healthy too." Adeline explained as she looked at Leon.

"She is given hidden threats in not a very hidden way, huh ?" Leon asked as a smile appeared over his face.

"What are you smiling about ? These people haven’t gone home for the last twenty four hours.

They have to leave sometime, don’t they ? And once they do, their families will ask why they have a fucking slave collar in their necks.

If questions started to rise... I am pretty sure she will get them all and I mean their families as well, killed." Adeline spoke with a serious expression.

"It’s not like me smiling affects the situation. How come you don’t have a slave collar ?" Leon asked with a confused smile.

"She walked upto me with wide and crazy eyes and asked me in a very serious and scary tone, ’Adeline... Can I trust you ?’ and I had to say ’yes, ma’am. You can trust me.’ because I think she was holding a fucking knife behind her back and if I had said something else, she would’ve stabbed me with it.

So, I didn’t get one of those slave collar things, but now she thinks I am her bitch and I will do everything she tells me to do." Adeline spoke with a serious expression.

"Isn’t that what headmaids do ?" Leon asked with a smile.

"That’s not the point, Leon. Please do something about this... These servants are afraid that as soon as they leave the mansion there will an assassin waiting for them outside." Adeline spoke with a worried expression.

"Fine, Fine... I will do something." Leon replied with a smile as he started walking towards the first floor.

"Wait... Where are you going ?" Adeline asked with a confused expression.

"To talk to Justin and his stupid mother." Leon replied as he immediately started walking up the stairs.

As soon as Leon reached on the first floor, he immediately entered inside Justin’s room without knocking.

*Click*

*Thud*

After entering Leon closed the door and noticed that Justin was sitting on the ground in a lotus position and seven fireballs were hovering around his body.

"Well... Looks like you have mastered something huh ?" Leon asked with a smile as he walked upto Justin.

"Hah..." Justin let out a warm breath from his mouth and suddenly all the fireballs disappeared.

"I was trying to learn a three circle spell, Mr. Leon. Magic is really hard and nothing like it’s written in the books." Justin spoke as he stood up and looked at Leon with an exhausted expression.

"I just heard what your mother did to the servants." Leon spoke as he looked at Justin with a neutral expressions.

"Yeah... My brother is coming home today and she doesn’t want the news to get out at any cost.

I did exactly what you told me to do and said all the same things, but I think she is probably going to tell my brother that it was all my plan." Justin replied as he looked at Leon with a calm expression.

"It’s good that now you can keep your calm while talking. Two days ago you were just a pussy." Leon replied with a neutral expression.

"Yeah... All this mana flowing through my body and the spells that I learned in the past two days have given me some real good confidence.

It feels really good." Justin replied with a smile.

"Good... come, let’s have a talk with your mother." Leon spoke as he started walking towards the door.

"But what do I have to say ?" Justin asked with a confused expression.

"I will do the talking today." Leon replied with a neutral expression as both of them exited the room and started walking towards the right side of the corridor.

"This one right ?" Leon asked as he pointed towards Justin’s parent’s room.

"Yep, that’s the one." Justin replied with a neutral expression.

*Knock-Knock*

"Mrs. Weaver... are you home ?" Leon asked with a neutral expression.

"Who is it ?" An angry voice came from inside.

"I might have a solution to all your problems. If you open the gate-" Before Leon could’ve completed his sentence...

*Click*

... She opened the gate and noticed that Leon and Justin ate standing outside the room.

"What the hell do you want ?" She asked Justin with a serious expression.

"Nothing... Mr. Leon here wanted to have a talk with you, Mother." Justin replied with a neutral expression.

"Mr. Leon ? You mean this butler ? I don’t want to talk to stupid goddamn butlers, I am way to busy for this.

Go to Adeline and she will give you your collar and tell you the terms of-" Before she could’ve closed the door, Leon placed his feet in between the door and stopped it from closed.

*Thud*

"What the hell do you think you are doing ?" Althea asked with a serious expression.

"I will kill Jamie Weaver if you closed that door in my face old bitch." Leon spoke while maintaining a neutral smile on his face but Justin chuckled a little under his breath.

"What the hell did you say to me ? Do you have any idea who you are talking to right-" As soon as Althea’s voice started to get louder, Leon’s expression turned serious.

"If you don’t let us in immediately... I will take this news to the Royal Castle and tell the king about what you did to the servants." Leon replied with a serious expression.

"Are you going to let this imbecile talk to your mother like this ?" Althea asked as she looked at Justin.

Justin didn’t speak anything and continued to stare at her with a neutral expression.

"You think the king cares about the Commoners ? He will just ignore you." Althea spoke as she looked at Leon with a serious expression.

"Oh... I won’t be the one to report this. Justin will be the one and I am pretty sure the words in his letter will be, ’My mother has gone mad and enslaved every servant in the house, removing the boundary that the king settled between commoners and slaves.’

Your husband will throw you out like garbage and your noble status will be ripped off. You will sell your body in some brothel like a cheap old whore." Leon spoke in a dark tone and his words sounded even more real from before because of the skill .

Althea’s heart started beating faster as the fear of words started crawling inside her.

"So... Can we come in now ?" Leon asked as his creepy smile returned once again.

Althea stepped aside but didn’t speak anything.

Leon and Justin immediately entered inside the room and closed the door behind them.

*Click*

"What do you want ?" Althea asked with a serious expression.

"You will free all the servants from the slave collars." Leon spoke maintaining his smile.

"I can’t do that... They will spread the news everywhere. Jamie’s reputation will be ruined.

He is the successor of this house and his reputation is Weaver Household’s reputation." She replied with a serious expression.

"You are one selfish mother you know. You only want Jamie to succeed because you trained him for this day from childhood.

Once he becomes the leader of this house, you will declare Weaver Household’s alliance to Yumer House or should I say your brother’s two star noble House.

You are just using Jamie as a tool to do that." Leon spoke with a smile.

"T-That’s non-sense... D-Do you anything to prove your words ?"

"Your breaking words are more than enough as proof but I will get some real ones from your brother.

Now, I am not interested in that... Because I am more interested in seeing what are the thoughts of Mr. Weaver, on this thing." Leon replied with a smile.

"H-He will never b-believe the words of a stupid butler." She replied with a serious expression as she sat down on the couch and took a sip of water.

Sweat started accumulating over her forehead and her hands started shaking.

"He will believe his son’s words." Justin spoke up from behind.
