Chapter 2409

“Um,” Leon was rendered speechless.

He was close with the Thompsons and knew them better than Alfred did.

Indeed, as the head of all families in the southern region, the Thompsons valued their reputation and would not be willing to get involved in the conflicts of the underground community.

The Thompsons became the ruler of the southern region in every sense, so even if every member of the underground community were to combine their forces, they would not pose a threat to the Thompsons.

With that said, the Thompsons had no reason to get involved.

“Leon, I’ll just give it to you straight! I want you to replace the Southern Boss and keep the underground community on your leash! Based on the kind of man I know you are, this will only benefit the Dragon Corps!” Alfred said seriously.

The Dragon Corps was a unique organization and could not possibly take control of the underground community, but Leon was different.

Though Leon worked for the Dragon Corps, he was considered an exception and was not bound by most of the rules set by the Dragon Corps.

Since Leon had his businesses, he was fit to take over the Southern Boss’s properties and businesses.

Despite Leon’s young age, he was formidable enough to defeat even the Demon Lord and the Southern Boss.

For someone like Leon, it would not be challenging to take charge of the underground community.

So long as Leon was willing to take over the Southern Boss’s position, he could stabilize the power dynamic of the underground community and the southern region Dragon Corps could control the community through Leon to better maintain the order.

“What? But, what won’t work?!” Leon was shocked as he did not expect Alfred to target him instead.

Cynthion Group had great potential and influence, so Leon was not short of fame or money.

He had no interest in taking charge of the underground community, nor did he want to be involved in their conflicts.

If he was interested in such a thing, he would not have told Vincent to take over the Lowes’ territory after Harold, the Northern King, was defeated.

Furthermore, Cynthion Group and Elegante Group were bound to extend to the central region market.

If Leon took over the Southern Boss’s position, he would have to remain in the southern region and that would not benefit the development of the Cynthion group in any way.

“Mister Glasbey, to be honest, I’m not interested in that. I don’t want to become the next Southern Boss. You should ask someone else!” Leon refused without hesitation.

“I know that this isn’t where your ambition lies, but I can’t find a better candidate other than you!” Alfred sighed.

But,” Leon tried to refuse again but was interrupted by Alfred.
