Chapter 330 Everyone Had a Responsibility
“Mr. Barlow, please speak!” Leones slowed his pace, wondering what Hubery wanted to say.
Hubery stroked his beard and chuckled, saying, “Technically, I shouldn’t interfere with Leones‘ personal matters. But…”
As his tone shifted, Hubery spoke directly. “In the future, you’re supposed to become the War God, leading soldiers of a region. How can you mix with those desperados and underground bosses? Isn’t this lowering your own value? You might even be criticized for it!
“In the future, if your political enemies use these matters against you on the court, you’ll be tying your own hands!”
In Hubery’s view, whether it’s leading Undrago or ruling the underground forces of Fatuma, these are things that shouldn’t be done openly. Someone like Leones, who excels in both medicine and martial arts, should walk the righteous path. These matters might tarnish his reputation. Hearing this, Leones smiled lightly. He had thought Hubery was about to say something significant. He didn’t expect such a trivial concern.
Indeed, with an illustrious military career, Hubery naturally looked down on those desperados. If it weren’t for Leones being there, he wouldn’t even deign to associate with them.
Even Chad, following behind, felt looked down upon by Hubery’s words and couldn’t help but feel a little inferior.
However, Leones had a different perspective. “Mr. Barlow, I disagree with you!
“Haven’t you heard that when the world is in turmoil, everyone has a responsibility? And there’s a saying that those who uphold righteousness often come from humble occupations.
“No one is born a rogue. They simply took some wrong turns in life. The courage of a common
person
is also a force to be reckoned with!
“Let me ask you, Mr. Barlow, is it easier to manage these desperados scattered all over the city or when they are gathered together?”
Hearing this, Hubery immediately understood Leones‘ point and nodded. “Of course, it’s easier to manage them when they’re together.”
“Exactly!” Leones continued, “No matter how we view them, they’ve always existed. Instead of letting them roam and cause trouble, why not have an organization that brings them together, strictly controls them, and uses them for our purposes?
“I believe that everyone has their value. If we can tap into their potential, they too can make a difference in the future.
“Now, in the golden age of Vericano, can’t we accommodate a small group like Undrago?” Leones‘ words were neither humble nor arrogant, striking straight to the heart.
Even Chad, who had felt inferior, was inspired after hearing Leones‘ words and stood up tall. Chad thought, “Even in a lowly position, one shouldn’t forget the concerns of the country! I was also a part of Vericano. If His Majesty becomes the War God, I will willingly follow him, even to the death!”
“Leones, you’re right!” Hubery said, somewhat ashamed, “It seems I was too old–fashioned.”
“Leones, you truly stand out!” Zoey also laughed. “I agree with you. Grandpa Hubery was wrong this time. Everyone is equal.

“After all, not everyone in the military camp is learned and cultured, right?”
After descending the mountain, Zoey paused to say goodbye to everyone, “I’ve received notice that the Yingville Army will leave tonight. I have to meet them. Farewell for now!”
“Alright, go!” Hubery nodded. He was reluctant to part, but a child has to venture out into the world. If she can continue the family legacy, that would be reassuring. “Be careful on your
journey! Once you’re in the army, you can’t act impulsively.”
“Leones, we’ll meet again!” Zoey said to Leones as a parting note, “The next time we meet, I’ll be the War God!”
“Great! I wish you success!” Leones replied, “Take care!”
After parting with Zoey, the group returned to Fatuma City.
Hubery said his goodbyes to Leones and went home. Leones and his party returned to the Johnson Manor.
The Johnson Manor was now lively with lights and decorations.
They had prepared a feast and sent out invitations far and wide, formally announcing the change of leadership in the Johnson family.
It made Leones a famous figure in Fatuma to spread his heroic deeds like seizing control of the Johnson family, defeating the Vulture, and becoming sworn brothers with Felix.
He had effectively become the top figure in Fatuma.
For a time, admirers came in droves. Important figures from all over Fatuma gathered at the Johnson Manor to meet him.
