Arriving in the kitchen, Leo coincidentally meets the three girls eating together. It was really a funny scene looking at Elizabeth being stared full of hate by Cassandra and Angel while eating. She was to be blamed for such a situation though, since she dared to cause harm to Leo.

After eating breakfast, Leo, Cassandra, and Angel immediately went to Sword and Magic. Today was the third day of the second week, hence they don't have to go to class today anymore and will be given the remaining days of the week to go and complete missions. However, though, Elizabeth was shamelessly coming with them.

Leo doesn't really want to bring Elizabeth with him, but she shamelessly showed him a letter from her family. The letter simply states that he, the dear future husband of Elizabeth, would look after her starting today. Hence, he can only bring her along despite feeling really unwilling.

One person knowing about his secret is not a problem anyway, especially if this person was just Elizabeth, a person who simply doesn't care about the points. After all, she is the only Heir of the Snow Noble Household. If she needs something, her family would immediately give it to her, if possible.

"You discovered this?!" Elizabeth can't help but gasp in shock. She was really dumbfounded as soon as she arrived.

'Leo had actually found out a loophole in the Second Prince's system.'

Elizabeth's reaction and thoughts were also exactly the same as Madam Silva's. What would the Second Prince reaction be the moment he found out that someone had actually made a cheat out of the system he was so proud about?

Leo just nodded his head as he didn't bother explaining to Elizabeth.

Since there were already four of them completing a mission this time around, so Leo finally has his own group. This simply means that he doesn't need to share the mission he had chosen with the other students anymore, such as the last time.

Also, Leo needed to find a mission suited for them, since every mission has its own requirements for the participants. If he chooses a mission with a 6 participants limit, then even if he already has his own group, he would still be sharing it with two other students.

Leo doesn't want that! The same case as Ban's might happen again if he shared the mission with unknown students. Better to be safe than sorry.

Looking around for a few minutes, Leo finally found one mission that really suits them.

[Protect Lady Veronica on her trip from Honoris city to Silver city, vice versa. Reward points: 10,000. ]

Leo pointed his finger at where the mission was written in the book.

The mission was simple, the same as how they did on the first one, but this one was only to protect a carriage. It was much easier than protecting a merchant caravan, yet it gives twice the amount of points than the last time. Though he doesn't know who was Lady Veronica, but since the mission was easy, at least in his opinion, he didn't hesitate to choose it.

"Are you really sure...?" Angel asked in confirmation.

To be honest, this mission wasn't as easy as the merchant caravan mission at all. In fact, it was much harder.

The mission that Leo wanted to choose wasn't just simply escorting any ordinary lady from a Noble Household, but the only daughter among the Honoris Household's children, specifically the most loved and protected daughter. The most important thing about this mission too was that lady Veronica is actually a friend of Princess Tiana, the youngest princess of the Silver royal family, which is also the purpose of her visit to Silver City.

"This isn't a joke or something, right...?" Elizabeth also felt the direness of the mission.

However, Leo didn't care about Elizabeth's opinion or something as he quickly made her shut her mouth.

"We don' need your opinion!" Leo exclaimed as he threw a cold gaze to Elizabeth.

"Okay then, suit yourself! Just don't come running to me the moment you realize something!" Elizabeth said in annoyance as she moved away from the group and walked towards the bookshelves.

"Yes, I'm sure about this mission!" Leo confirmed as he quickly put his hand forward, ready to accept the Official Seal of Acceptance for the mission. He was really excited about the mission. It was basically a free point, in his opinion...

"Okay..." Angel could only helplessly give Leo the Official Seal of Acceptance. 'I'll report this to Madam Silva before going to the mission in order to avoid any possible trouble due to Leo's obvious ignorance.'

"Let's prepare the stuff needed and let's travel to the Honoris city in the evening!" Leo said before walking away from the study room along with Cassandra to prepare the things needed for this coming mission.

In the evening, Leo and the others finally left Silver city to Honoris city. The travel was smooth. Unexpectedly though, it was actually so far. They had to travel to two cities, Williams city and Will city, and one town, Honeycomb town, a territory under the Honoris city, before finally reaching the Honoris city.

It was a lengthy trip, really, but astonishingly the specific road they traveled towards Honoris city was not rough at all. In fact, it was actually made out of bricks.

Angel quickly explained, "Lady Veronica always travels this special road, hence the Honoris Noble Household purposely made it into a brick road to allow smooth travel for her."

Leo was astonished at such feat; just to allow a smooth journey for their only daughter, they had actually made a brick road of over five hundred kilometers long.

"Just how much did it cost for making this road?!" Leo can't help asking.

"More than five hundred million gold, it wasn't specified by the person who wrote the report. That cost excludes the fee for the rights to construct around the territory of Williams and Will city, and the danger zone protection fee!" Angel replied after thinking for a bit.

"Five hundred mill... million?! So it's one million per kilometer?! And that isn't even the total cost, yet? Rights to construct and protection fee basically needed to be paid in every month! Damn, just how rich is the Honoris Noble Household?" Leo was taken aback at such a price. Finally, he realized something important about their mission.

"The Honoris Noble Household, can you tell me about it?" Leo quickly asked Angel to confirm about something.

"They are one of the five major Noble Households of the Silver Kingdom, specifically the third, just below the Skull and Snow Noble Households. They supply all the agricultural-related products throughout the entire Silver Kingdom, and they are also one of the biggest farmer slave trader that supplies to many Human Kingdoms and Empires. The farmers they trained are known for being really good at cultivating farmlands, which could be simply seen from the annual harvest of the Honoris Noble Household." Angel paused for a moment to think of something before she finally continued her explanation.

"I think its around 1,000,000 acres of land worth of wheat, 500,000 acres' worth of different vegetables, 250,000 acres' worth of different fruits, and lastly their most important product, honey from bees, which they can annually supply 10,000,000 kilograms worth of honey. Their name also means Honor to the bees, hence Honorbees, but was then changed to Honoris in order to sound better." Angel said, finally concluding her explanation about the Honoris Noble Household.

Leo was shocked beyond belief immediately after hearing the description of the Honoris Noble Household. At this moment, he could only let out an awkward laugh.

Leo finally realized that the mission he had happily chosen was actually not an easy mission. In fact, it was a deadly trap, honey-covered deadly trap.

Also, Leo had realized the reason why lady Veronica was a friend to one of the daughters of the Silver royal family. Being a friend to the sixth princess was reasonable, since she is a member of one of the major families of the Silver Kingdom. He really felt stupid at his excited reaction when he accepted the mission.

'Wasn't this the same way as to how Alfred and the others felt before when they unknowingly fell into my trap?'

This was indeed like that. Feeling really happy and excited despite falling into a trap. Such a ridiculous thing had actually happened to Leo, a guy with a very smart brain.

Well, Leo was very excited the moment he saw the mission. Who on earth would not? It will give a reward of 10,000 points, and it sounds really easy, too. So, he misses such important information about the mission.

"Ah! Can we... maybe concede the mission, we can right?" Leo asked as he looked at Angel with eyes full of expectation.

"Unfortunately, we can't..." Angel could only shake her head in response.

"Stupid!" Elizabeth suddenly exclaimed.
