I Want To Get Strong

As they walked towards the palace, Leo suddenly realized his forgetfulness.

Leo: "Oh no, I forgot about Princess Talia! She'll be furious with me."

Sani was curious and asked about the princess.

Sani: "Princess Talia? Why would she be mad at you?"

Leo explained the situation.

Leo: "I was with her in the chariot when I saw the explosion caused by Johan. Without thinking, I jumped out and flew straight towards the explosion. I didn't get a chance to explain anything to her, and now she's probably angry."

Damon was astonished at the speed of Leo's response.

Damon inquired about the distance from the explosion, and Leo Brandon replied, "I guess about 5 kilometers."

Damon: "Wait, you were 5 kilometers away from the explosion, and we were just 5 minutes away from it. Yet, you managed to reach there so quickly!"

Damon couldn't help but admire Leo's extraordinary abilities.

Damon: (to himself) "He truly is the real deal."

Leo smiled modestly, appreciating the acknowledgment.

Leo: "Well, let's hope Talia understands once we explain everything. She's a strong and understanding person."

Sani and Damon felt reassured by Leo's confidence, and they continued walking towards the palace, anticipating what lay ahead.

Outside the palace, they finally met Princess Talia, and her anger towards Leo was evident as she kicked him twice.

Talia: "You ran off again without saying anything, you stupid!"

Leo Brandon apologized, "I'm sorry."

Sani and Damon then explained the entire situation to Princess Talia, and upon hearing the truth, she understood.

Talia: "Oh, I didn't know that. I'll send some guards to the explosion area to see if anyone was hurt."

Curiosity sparked in Talia as she turned to Sani and Damon.

Talia: "By the way, who are you kids?"

Leo Brandon quickly intervened.

Leo: "They are my fans and will be staying with me for a while. Please make a room for them."

Talia playfully teased him, "What do I get from you?"

Leo, a little annoyed, responded, "Alright, alright. You can ask me for one favor, and I'll do it for you."

Talia's face brightened as she accepted the offer, "Deal! Damon and Sani, you're welcome to stay here as long as you want."

With Leo's assurance and Princess Talia's warm welcome, Sani and Damon felt relieved. They were grateful for Leo's help and relieved to find a safe place to stay.

Damon: "Thank you, Princess Talia. We really appreciate your understanding."

Sani: "Yes, thank you, Leo, for everything."

Talia smiled at them.

Talia: "It's no problem at all. Just enjoy your time here, and if you need anything, feel free to ask. Welcome to the Rajmal Palace!"

Talia informed Leo that their father was expecting him. Leo acknowledged and instructed Damon and Sani to go rest in their room. They agreed, and Leo headed to meet the king.

Damon and Sani carefully placed Johan on a bed before stepping outside. Talia approached them with a warm smile, offering to give them a tour of the palace.

Talia: "Come, let's explore the palace together. There are many fascinating sights to see."

Damon and Sani gratefully accepted the offer, excited to discover the wonders of Rajmal Palace and grateful for Talia's hospitality.

As they strolled through the palace garden, Damon mustered the courage to ask Princess Talia about Leo Brandon's reputation.

Damon: "Princess Talia, can I ask you about Leo Brandon? He's known as a feared person from the gang, right? Why does he seem so different now? And you looked comfortable around him too. What is his connection to this country?"

Talia smiled warmly in response.

Talia: "Yes, you can ask. Leo is indeed associated with the gang, but there's more to his story. He saved our country."

Talia smiled warmly in response.

Talia: "Yes, you can ask. Leo is indeed associated with the gang, but there's more to his story. He saved our country."

Sani was surprised.

Sani: "Saved? How?"

Talia continued, explaining the critical situation their country had faced.

Talia: "You know how gang members work. They seek territories, and if a country refuses, they resort to destruction. There was a person wanted to claim our country as his territory, but our father refused. He was ready to destroy us, but that's when Leo appeared."

Talia's admiration for Leo was evident in her voice.

Talia: "Leo saved us from that crisis. If he hadn't come at that moment, we would have been destroyed. He risked his life to protect our people and our country."

Damon and Sani were taken aback by this revelation. It seemed that there was much more to Leo Brandon than they initially thought. The realization of his selfless act made them see him in a new light.

Sani: "He risked everything to save you all? That's incredible."

Talia nodded with a grateful expression.

Talia: "Yes, he did. That's why my father and I trust him, and we consider him a friend."

Damon and Sani's perception of Leo had shifted, and they felt grateful for his presence, knowing that he was not only a powerful ally but also someone with a sense of responsibility and courage.

Damon: By the way ,"Do you know who wanted to conquer the country?"

Talia's fear of the person was evident in her response, leaving Damon and Sani concerned about that person.

Talia: "His name is Wen Chowk."

As the truth about Wen Chowk's identity was revealed, Sani were left in disbelief.

Damon: "Do you know who this Wen Chowk guy is, Sani?"

Sani: "Yes, he's the 2nd commander of the Carang gang. And he's the one who has control over my hometown, Pathrim, as one of his territories."

After learning about Wen Chowk's identity as the 2nd commander of the Carang gang, Damon was in disbelief. Sani warned him about Wen Chowk's reputation and the power of his brother, Orun Chowk, the 3rd commander.

Sani: "Listen, Damon, Wen Chowk is the most dangerous and powerful person. His brother, Orun Chowk, is just as fearsome. We have to be wary of both of them."

Damon understood the seriousness of the situation and turned to Princess Talia, seeking more information.

Damon: "Princess Talia, you said Leo Brandon saved this country from Wen Chowk, right? They fought, and Leo won?"

Princess Talia nodded.

Talia: "Yes, they fought for ten straight hours, and Leo managed to deliver a powerful blow that caught Wen Chowk off guard. The battle was over within thirty minutes after that."

Damon was impressed by Leo's strength and courage, knowing that facing such dangerous adversaries required incredible skill and determination.

As they were conversing in the garden, Leo Brandon finally joined them, and Talia playfully teased him for taking so long.

Talia: "Oh, what took you so long?"

Leo chuckled in response.

Leo: "Hey, I was hungry. Went to grab some food too."

Damon, deep in thought, approached Leo, looking determined.

Damon: "Mr. Leo, please make me your student. I want to get strong."

Everyone looked surprised by Damon's sudden request. Leo studied Damon for a moment before replying.

Leo: "You want me to train you? Why?"

Damon's eyes hardened as he recalled the pain of losing Poki and the need to protect those he cared about.

Damon: "I lost someone important to me, and I don't want that to happen again. I want to become strong enough to protect the ones I love."

Leo observed Damon's resolve and then gave him a faint smile.
