The moment Cassandra and the others left the command tent, Leo turned very serious as he looked at Karl.

"Are you sure about this information?"

Seeing this, Karl replied, "Yes! I was present at the moment the plan was made."

"Then in your opinion, what is the chance of us rescuing Veronica and Princess Tiana?"

"None..." Karl bowed down his head.

"If it\'s none, then what\'s the need for you to approach us? Isn\'t it much better for you to just do something else than think of saving her since it\'s already impossible?" Leo said.

"That..." Karl turned to look at Leo. To be honest, what Leo had said was indeed correct. There was still a chance, that\'s why he approached them, but it\'s too dangerous, that\'s why he\'s hesitating.

"If you have a plan in mind, just tell it to us. We won\'t be able to do anything to help Veronica and Princess Tiana if you keep on remaining silent, not to mention time is of great importance to us now!" Leo\'s eyes turned sharp.

"I do indeed have a plan... It\'s just that, the cost outweighs the gain." Karl replied. To be more exact, rescuing 2 women in exchange for hundreds or worst thousands of lives.

"Everything has already outweighed the gain in this war we are currently fighting right now. But since we still continued with the war, then that simply means we don\'t mind the losses we will take. Also, what you have just told us would definitely threaten our chances of winning this war, so we need to stop it!" Leo explained. What he said was indeed the truth. At the current state of Silver Kingdom, even if they indeed win the war, it would only give them a fallen Kingdom in exchange for sacrificing hundreds of thousands of lives, counting both sides, and countless amount of resources of both Magical and ordinary. So, whether they add more to this, it won\'t matter anymore, because it had already outweighed the gain.

Hearing that, Karl became stunned before understandings what Leo really meant about. His hesitation quickly vanished, "My plan is actually simple."

"How simple?"

"Around average."

"Okay, then go on..."

"But, we require the cooperation of Snow Noble Household, which I assume shouldn\'t be a problem considering Elizabeth is with you, right?"

"Just continue on, whether this plan could work or not would be decided when you finally finish speaking," Leo motioned his hand to continue.

"Okay!" Karl nodded, "So my plan is; a few of us would disguise as one of the Snow Noble Household\'s men with obviously the cooperation of the latter and enter the castle of the Silver royal family through this. After that, we would think of a way to locate Princess Tiana and Veronica. Once we locate them, we will then take them away. The only problem is, we need to take them away before the Snow Noble Household and Silver royal family finally signed the alliance."

"And how exactly do we escape?" Leo asked. What Karl had said was a good plan, really, but it only talks about infiltrating the Silver royal family with no plan of how to escape.

"That, I, unfortunately, don\'t know..." Karl replied. In his opinion, it would become extremely hard to escape the castle of the Silver royal family once Princess Tiana and Veronica are finally with them. Although he knows that it is still possible to escape, he just doesn\'t how exactly they would do that.

"So that\'s the extent of your plan?" Leo wanted to confirm.

"Yes..."

"Okay," Leo turned to look at everyone else, "We will go with his plan."

"But, how will those people who went to rescue Veronica and Princess Tiana escape?" The Elders can\'t help asking.

"Indeed, even if they can get Veronica and Princess Tiana, it would still be for nothing since they can\'t get out from the Silver royal family\'s castle!" The Guardians quickly disagreed.

"I also fully agree with the!" The Generals seconded.

"That\'s not even the most important question here." George shook his head.

"Indeed, the most important question is, who will be the one that will infiltrate the Silver royal family\'s castle?" Charles said while wearing a grim face.

Everyone could already see clearly just how impossible the plan was the moment Karl revealed that he doesn\'t have a way to escape. So, the question became, who will sacrifice their lives to rescue two women? Although the 2 women are of great importance to decide whether they would win this war or not, it still doesn\'t deny the fact that those who will volunteer might need to sacrifice their own lives.

"That\'s not a problem, I will personally volunteer!" Leo said without any hesitation.

"No, you won\'t!" Queen Olivia quickly disagrees. Leo was of great importance to their army right now, so she can\'t allow him to take such an extremely dangerous mission.

Queen Maria and Madam Silva nodded in agreement to Queen Olivia\'s words.

"If only I wasn\'t injured, then I would have been able to easily rescue them... But sadly, with my current state right now, it would be extremely hard." Elder Rain added. King Erskine might not be on the same level of cultivation as him, but with his current injuries right now, there is no telling whether he can really win or not if they indeed fight with each other. Moreover, King Erskine would definitely not be fighting alone, so he needs to take that into serious consideration as well. Although he\'s also not alone, since Queen Olivia, Queen Maria, and Madam Silva can also help him, but they are likewise injured too, so it\'s hard to determine whether they will have the advantage or not. And the most important thing to consider is, this is most likely going to be the last stand of the Silver royal family, so there is a very high chance that they will become desperate and sacrifice everything to win or to at least bring them down with them for mutual destruction. In short, there are currently a lot of factors and variables to consider, so they need to be careful in making decisions.

"Why?" Leo wanted to know why.

"Are you stupid? Would you risk your life just to save a woman?" Queen Olivia answered Leo\'s question.

"I\'m not risking my life to save a woman!" Leo quickly rebutted. He was indeed not going to only rescue Veronica and Princess Tiana. Although that is part of the reason why it is still not what he is really aiming to do.

"To be honest, we could actually just abandoned Princess Tiana and Veronica, seriously, but that would also mean we would be allowing the entire Snow Noble Household to help the Silver royal family. With the current state of our army right now, do you really want to take that risk?" Leo asked everyone, "Everyone is now aware that Snow Noble Household is no longer the same as before. The Honoris Noble Household and the Skull Noble Household has already joined together with them. Hence, with the new power they have gained right now, it would be enough to contend against us, not to mention the Silver royal family will definitely help them. So whether we will win this war or not, will depend on whether we can save Veronica and Princess Tiana, or at least the former because the latter wouldn\'t really cause us anything if she dies or not."

That was indeed the truth, Veronica was the only one of importance right now. It doesn\'t include Princess Tiana. The only person who really cares whether Princess Tiana dies or not is Karl. But still, that doesn\'t mean they would abandon Princess Tiana. What Leo really meant to say was, they need to rescue the two women if they don\'t want to face the risk of fighting against someone with the same level of strength as them. Karl also understood this, that\'s why he didn\'t react when Leo said \'at least save Veronica\'.

As to why the Snow Noble Household has the same strength like them, it is simply because they have received a lot of casualties during the battle against the Black organization. If that battle didn\'t happen, or if they have at least only received a few casualties, then this wouldn\'t be their case right now. But unfortunately, their situation was the former.

Moreover, just like what Elder Rain had said, they are currently injured, so their cultivation doesn\'t give them that much of an advantage anymore during the battle. They would need to be cautious when fighting, especially if they are fighting with people with the same realm as them, specifically Galaxy level against Galaxy level.

Furthermore, during this war, Leo has experienced or seen for himself already that it is actually possible to hide the level of their cultivation. So, there is no telling whether that cultivation he had seen or heard in the past would really be the real cultivation of those people they would be fighting against or might be fighting against, specifically King Erskine, Patriarch Vincent Snow, Patriarch Walter Skull, and Patriarch Simon Honoris.

there are also more people they would be fighting against, but even if they have the 24 Elders, 12 Zodiacs, 10 Guardians, and Generals, it would still not be a sure assurance that they can beat them.

"So, will you really risk the Mischievous Blue Sword Alliance to fight against such an opponent?" Leo looked at everyone, "Especially if we have the way not to face this risk!"
