Leo reached his home in the wee hours, and got inside. He found Snow sleeping on the couch. He shook his head as he quietly approached her and picked her in his arms before heading to the bedroom.

Snow woke up in his arms but she was in deep sleep so only snuggled close and fell asleep again. Leo tucked her in, took a shower. He went over to Lily’s room. Usually, they closed the door but it wouldn’t be locked.

They did this so in case Lily needed their help, they could go in. She was a child after all, and while it was essential to be independent, they also needed to be watchful.

Leo opened the door a little, peeked at the face of his princess smiling in her sleep and went back to his room. As he lay on the bed and embraced Snow gently, a voice echoed in his mind, ’Ping, the pinnacle security company ownership has been transferred to you. Soon, the executives will come over to meet.’

Leo raised a question, ’System, what do you say the loyalty of these people would be to me? They are all retired soldiers from different countries. If they decide to betray me, do you think I would be able to stand up to them? Forget about me, would my wife and daughter be able to handle that?’

’Ping: Host, please do not worry, they all have been conditioned by the system and as time passes you will get strong enough to stand tall among them. Their loyalty to you is ninety-nine percent. The one percent is deducted to make sure that you listen to their suggestions when necessary and so that they keep your feet grounded, it is very easy to get a bloated head and float away. Remember, Icarus died from flying too close to the sun.’

Leo nodded and closed his eyes to fall asleep. In the morning, when he woke up, he found that Snow and Lily had already left home, they left him with breakfast and a note on the side fridge.

The young man was mentally exhausted which caused him to sleep for a longer time than usual. He checked his phone and found a message from Percie, who said that they seemed to have an advancement in the five OEM plant deals.

Leo gave her a go-ahead and turned on the Television. The news recap showed a brief footage of Percie Hibiscal holding a press conference in her demolished reception area, and countering the people who did this by showing condemnation and police involvement.

Leo checked the general trend of the news on his phone and found that the public was really supporting Butterfly Technologies.

Leo nodded and began his stock investment and capture operation. Suddenly, his phone rang. He picked it up and asked, "Yes, who is this?"

The other person replied, "Hello Sir, this is Ellysa Carter, I am the general manager of Pinnacle Security. May I ask when would be a good time to meet you?"

Leo replied after a thought, "I am in Angkor City, the Clover Nation, when you come over, you can give me a call and we will arrange for a meeting."

To his surprise, Ellysa Carter replied, "Sir, I am already in Angkor City."

Leo smiled and remarked, "As expected of the top five companies, I think you know my residence as well?"

Ellysa replied positively and Leo told her to come over to his house. He had a few things in his mind and with the help of this company he would be able to deal with them quickly.

The young man finished his workout, and then took a shower before dressing up in casual attire. He picked up his laptop and began to write some code, the things that he learned inside the virtual realm were going to help him build a better foundation. He did not wish to rely on the system too much because the tasks it gave out often depended on what Lily wanted and not his needs.

It was half past eleven when the watchman on the community entrance called him about a motorcade. Leo confirmed it and let them come in.

Ellysa was sitting in the back seat of a car and beside her sat a man, whose eyes were akin to a knife. He asked, "Elly, is it really happening?"

Ellysa nodded and said, "Mark, I am telling you not to look down on this man. He bought the company without letting anyone catch a whiff and holds complete equity."

Mark shook his head and said, "You misunderstand, I am not doubting him. However, all this still feels like a dream to me. Especially looking at his file. A man who can overcome spinal injury and full body paralysis, this is crazy. What if we train him? Won’t he become a killer king?"

Ellysa did not raise her head from the file and said, "Don’t tell me all these things, I am just the general manager. You manage the tasks. Now shut up."

The cars stopped and the two got down followed by eight people from two other cars. They all went inside the villa after Leo remotely accessed the gates, and just when Ellysa was about to knock, Leo opened the door, and nodded to them.

He looked at Ellysa and gestured to her to come inside. She was accompanied by Mark. Leo had already placed glasses filled with water on the table, and said, "Have a seat."

The two sat down, and Ellysa said, "Sir, this is Mark Shin. He is the Taskmaster, responsible for personnel recruitment and deployment when tasks are issued."

Leo nodded and said, "Nice to meet you. So, what do you have on your mind that needs a meeting?"

Ellysa asked, "Do you want us to relocate the base of operations?"

Leo shook his head and said, "Impractical. Instead, I want you to assign me a personal team of guards. Other than that the operations stay the same. You can deal with it."

Ellysa and Mark were surprised and Leo said, "Yes, I do have one task that you need to carry out."

Mark nodded and said, "Sir, if it is within the Clover Nation, it would be difficult."

Leo shook his head and replied, "I am aware how strict the Clover Nation is, you all must be on their radar from the moment you entered the nation. I want you to go back, and locate this person."

He turned on his laptop and all the details about Echo Cardinal were displayed in it. Leo had tracked him down, because this loser was still using the same phone number. He said, "The two nations do not have any extradition treaty signed and thus Echo Cardinal is able to have an easy life in Lama Country. I want you to catch him alive. Bring him to the Fuku Islands, and then call me. I want to see him before he is thrown to the Blue Hounds."

Mark patted his chest and said, "It will be easy, I assure you that within forty eight hours the results will be out."

Leo nodded and after a few more topics, the people left, leaving behind eight guards. Leo leaned in the couch and mumbled, "I wonder how your screams would sound, Echo Cardinal."
