Leon thought he would feel something annoying after torturing the terrorists, but he didn't feel anything. He didn't feel good, nor did he feel bad. In the end, he felt satisfied with that. It was a sign that his psych wasn't that damaged.

After making an example out of the first terrorist, Leon still burned one of the legs of the other ones. Causing damage without asking anything first was an excellent way to convince them to talk. Unfortunately, in the end, Leon only obtained a few pieces of information. First of all, they never met the harvester who was controlling them. The sneaky bastard only talked directly with their minds and gave them directions. Upon arriving in those places, the terrorists obtained magic items and tomes. They used that to get stronger and become the leaders of small groups of survivors. Now and then, they would hear the voice of the harvester promising them more tomes and magic items... as long as they cause a ruckus on Earth.

"Who are those harvesters?" Yuki frowned.

"The guy who summoned me to another world and the bastard who teleported me to the stomach of that massive snake are harvesters," Leon explained. "Essentially, they are beings who wanted to mess with the progression of the worlds in order to, when the time comes, have a good environment for them."

"Are you saying that a being of another planet was controlling the terrorists and that being planned to weaken Earth's defenses?" Ren asked, surprised.

"Yes, you guys forgot about it, but one of them caused problems to us before," Leon said. "Regardless, their goal wasn't just to cause a ruckus for no reason. They wanted to destroy the alliance between countries and then succeeded. Now human forces are divided into three places. It will be easier for them to kill humans if they are divided."

"Hmph! Whoever planned this, that person is dead wrong if they think things will go the way they wanted." Yuki snorted.

"Things are already the way they wanted..." Leon sighed. "I can't blame you since the true enemies are beings that lived much more than any of us... Anyway, you guys can do whatever you want with them. I will take one of them with me in order to confirm that everything we heard was true."

"... Although we disagree in many things, I must thank you for your help," Yuki said after she crossed her arms and looked away. "Thanks to you, we solved this situation without suffering a single loss, and you even gave valuable information for us."

"If you really feel thankful, don't cause problems for me in the future," Leon said and then disappeared alongside one of the unconscious terrorists.

Although Leon solved that problem in less than a day, he couldn't slack off. In the end, one day there was the equivalent of ten days on Ilyana's world. He did it for a good reason, but he lost ten days where he could have trained several skills or even obtained the cooperation of a spirit.

After confirming that no one was around, Leon killed the terrorist and then activated Summon Zombie using his body. As expected, the skill worked, and the creature looked at Leon with his dead white eyes waiting for answers.

"Hey... can you talk?" Leon hesitated.

"Yes..." The zombie answered.

"Do you remember the things you did while you were alive?" Leon asked. "Do you remember when I tortured you?"

"Yes..." The zombie answered.

"Did you hide something? Did you lie?" Leon asked.

"No..." The zombie answered.

"Is there something you know that it will be useful for me about the creature that talked to you?" Leon asked.

"No..." The zombie answered.

Leon looked away, very annoyed. Then he created massive rock and let it fall over his zombie, smashing it into bits. Leon only wasted time using that skill that he hated with a passion. Regardless, Leon returned to Ilyana's castle and gave her a summary of what happened.

"I see... I guess the number of harvesters that will target Earth in the future won't be small," Ilyana rubbed her chin.

"Right... do you know that the dragons appeared on several worlds because apparently, a harvester summoned them?" Leon asked.

"Yes, the same thing happened to my world," Ilyana explained. "However, the dragons that you saw weren't real dragons. Just like the elementals I create, they were just weakened copies of the real deal. The real dragons can cause trouble for the people who have survived until the beginning of the fifth stage of the assimilation... What about it?"

"Because of him, my parents died, and he is the number one bastard on my kill list," Leon answered. "Can you tell me anything you know about him or her?"

"Sorry, but that is not possible." Ilyana shook her head.

"...Why?" Leon furrowed his eyebrows.

"She is my number one target too," Ilyana looked at Leon and showed her vicious eyes for the first time. "I won't hand her over to anyone... I will kill her myself."

It looked like that was a personal matter to Ilyana, and she didn't intend to let Leon do what he wants about that harvester. In the end, arguing wouldn't change anything... unless Leon obtains the power to refute Ilyana, he wouldn't be able to kill such harvester anyway. So, he put that kind of worry on the back of his mind.
