Leo was thinking about a way to solve this mess without losing the sympathy that he had gained from the rest of the world.

"It seems like it's time to meet Blaze again. Let's introduce the world to someone..."

Leo took his seat in the ship, which started rising in the air. He didn't return to the bank. Instead, the ship brought him to earth.

After receiving sufficient permissions, the ship landed atop the Hero Guild Headquarters.

Blaze appeared to already be waiting for him outside the ship.

Leo stepped out of the ship, wearing a hood that hid his face to some extent.

"Welcome back to earth." Blaze stepped forward and reached out his hand.

"It feels good to be back where it all started," Leo smiled, as he shook Blaze's hand.

After all, it was his first workplace. Although he had left this place a little disgruntled, but thanks to blaze, there was little improvement in their relationship.

"Unfortunately, I'm not here to join the Hero Tower."

"Are you still a little upset about what happened before? But I can understand. We didn't treat you well. That's why, if you give us one more change, we-"

Blaze tried to convince Leo one more time, but Leo simply cut his words off.

"I need a little help from you," he said.

"What help? If it's anything within my means, I will definitely help!" Blaze exclaimed, escorting Leo to the lift.

"It's a little risky though. If the truth comes out after you help me, it might also drag you into a mess."

"When have I ever worried about such things?" Blaze smiled, pressing a button in the lift. "Just tell me what you need from me."

Leo glanced at Blaze with intrigue. Although it was true that the Hero Union had almost killed him, it was also true that Blaze had nothing to do with it.

Still, he had no intention to return. He simply needed help from the Hero Tower which could exercise a massive amount of influence on earth.

"I need you to help me with..." Leo explained to Blaze about what he actually wanted.

The moment he heard it, Blaze's expressions twisted a little.

"Is that really... possible? Isn't this plan a little crazy?"

"Well, I agree that it is a little crazy." Leo didn't reject Blaze's words. It was certainly a crazy plan, which looked like it was definitely going to fail at the first glance. However, he had a feeling that it was going to succeed.

After all, there were only two obstructions to this plan. The first was related to earth, while the second was related to the Watchdog Agency, which was certain that he could never be free from the prison.

"Fine. I'll handle it." After a long period of silence, Blaze nodded. "It should be prepared within a week. I just have to go meet a few world leaders, and they should understand what they should and shouldn't do."

Blaze brought Leo to the floor that was directly under his control. While he was to leave to handle Leo's instructions, Leo was left on Blaze's floor with temporary authority of a Floor Master.

Still, Leo didn't really plan to use the authority of Floor Master. He simply selected a free bedroom, and started waiting for Blaze to return.

At the same time, he tossed around some money online, to get a troll farm on standby. After all, what he was planning to do was a little crazy indeed. He needed a few people to fan the flames online.

....

Two weeks later...

Hundreds of media houses had gathered before the Hero Tower. Drones and cameras could be seen flying all around the place, as if trying to find the perfect angle.

"Do you know why this press conference has been called by the Hero Tower?" A reporter asked the other.

"Do you think I would've looked so confused if I knew? It seems like not a single media house has been informed about the topic. All we know is that it is something important for the Hero Tower to invite so many media houses.

"By the way, did you hear the latest rumor online? It seems like the Alpha Corp has been in a mess ever since their leader was taken, and most likely killed. It was said that they asked for the Hero Tower's help to help."

"Could this be about that? Is Hero Tower about to take over the Alpha Corp? Is that company about to be nationalized?"

"If that happens, it will truly be massive news!'

It wasn't one or two reporters. Almost everyone was eagerly waiting for the press conference to begin. Even though not a single person was at the podium, they had already started the live stream.

All across earth, citizens had started playing the livestream, just as eager as the reporters.

Just then, the main door of the Hero Tower opened, and a person stepped out, taking the podium.

He came closer to the mic, and said, "Silence. We will be starting the press conference in a few minutes. When that happens, please refrain from making a commotion."

"If you have questions, save them for the end of the press conference. You will have plenty of opportunities to ask your questions at that time."

Once the Hero Tower member finished speaking, he gestured towards the door and exclaimed, "Now please welcome... Lord Blade, and a special guest..."

Just then, the door opened once more. And Blaze stepped out, looking as impressive as ever. However, this time, everyone's attention was on the person next to Blaze, who appeared more eye-catching.

"Is that... Leo Vanderlen?" A man suddenly exclaimed.

In an instant, the commotion escalated. Many citizens that were watching the live feed, stood up, holding their heads.

A few even started crying in happiness as they found Leo to be safe. They were most worried that Leo had already been killed with the excuse of him escaping.
