Chapter 1526
The Ex-Husband's Revenge
The call was soon answered and Master Haslewoodâs slender, yet powerful figure appeared on the screen.
âWhy are you calling me, Leon?â Master Haslewood cut to the chase.
âMaster, since Iâm a member of the Dragon Corps, does that mean that I can seek their help if Iâm in trouble? âLeon asked.
âOf course! You can always reach out to the Dragon Corps in the southern region. Iâm in Springfield City, so why would you come to me instead?â Master Haslewood rolled his eyes, but then he seemed to recall something and his expression darkened. âYouâve been in the southern region for some time now. Are you telling me that you havenât reported to the Dragon Corps there?â
âWell, Iâll do it when Iâm free,â Loen smiled sheepishly.
Before Leon traveled to the southern region, Master Haslewood reminded him that he needed to report to the Dragon Corps in the southern region to start participating in missions even though Leon was not a core member.
It was his duty as a member of the Dragon Corps, but Leon was so occupied with his company that he did not do so just yet.
âWhy you! You wonât even make time to report to the southern region branch, and now you remember about the Dragon Corps when you need help?â Master Haslewood mocked angrily.
âMaster, thatâs not important! Letâs discuss what I made this call for!â Leon immediately changed the subject.
âGo on then, what kind of trouble are you in?â Master Haslewood asked without teasing Leon any further.
âThere are two things that I need the Dragon Corpsâ help with. First of all, I need an Angelâs Fruit. Can the Dragon Corps get their hands on one?â Leon said.
After the conflict between him and Charlie, it was unlikely for him to obtain the fruit from the Martells, so he turned to the Dragon Corpsâ help instead in the hope that they could secure an Angelâs Fruit for him.
âOf course! Finding itâd be a piece of cake to the Dragon Corps!â Master Haslewood nodded.
âReally? Thatâs great!â Leon was overjoyed.
He spent a lot of time and effort in the search for the Angelâs Fruit and never once thought that the Dragon Corps could help. If he knew about it sooner, he would have never wasted his time.
Before he could feel relieved, what Master Haslewood said next brought him back to reality.
âDonât get too excited just yet! Itâs not easy to obtain the fruit from the Dragon Corps either! There is no such thing as a free lunch!â Master Haslewood said in annoyance.
âOh, I know. I can buy it from them at its market price! Leon said causally as money was not an issue for him.
âWhat good is money for us? The Dragon Corps have their own set of rules and if you want something from them, you will need to exchange it with contribution points!â Master Haslewood scoffed.
The Dragon Corps was a national organization with the support of the government, so they were never in need of money.
