The next destination they were going towards was the Magical Beasts Tamer Association. 

Unlike Sebastian who went to the Alchemist Association to fetch Ellen and bring her along with them to order a custom-made dress for the ball, they were mainly going to the Magical Beasts Tamer Association because Eilajah wanted to buy some beginner Magical Beasts Taming books for Steve to study and learn more about being a Magical Beasts Tamer. 

Initially, Eilajah wasn't really intending to come with Leo since there is seriously no need to do that for such a minuscule thing as merely buying some beginner Magical Beasts Taming books. In all sense, the level of importance of this matter doesn't need the involvement of the Guild Leader of the Mischievous Lion Guild.

Nevertheless, Leo still insisted to invite Eilajah and Steve to come with them so that they will have more reasonable and explainable methods to use in distracting and wasting the time of the members of the Naughty Elves organization secretly following behind them. 

Arriving at the entrance of the Magical Beasts Tamer Association, Eilajah and Steve casually disembarked from the fifth carriage to make it looked natural as they then made their way straight inside to buy the Magical Beasts Taming books that they needed.

Meanwhile, inside the first and fourth carriage, Charlotte and Nightingale went to inform the others about the location of the members of the Naughty Elves organization hiding nearby them right now. 

"Should we eliminate them so that they will become even more suspicious of us?" Charlotte suggested.

"Just ignore them," Leo shook his head in response. He explained, "Provoking them and making them send more members to follow after us would just cause us a lot more of trouble than you can ever imagine,"

"No, I can already imagine how much trouble it would certainly cause to us, but wouldn't that also make all of their members that are spread throughout the entire Emerald City focus all of their attention on us? By then, it will consequently allow Elvis and his group to easily sneaked inside the Evergreen royal family's castle," Cassandra said in doubt. 

"Making all of the members of the Naughty Elves organization in the Emerald City focus all of their attention on us is indeed a very good plan to choose. In fact, I actually also quite agree with your idea of making all of them come here to us and focus their attention on us alone. But do you really think that they are so stupid so as to not get suspicious once all of their members, or at most, majority of their members are gathered in one single location?" Leo asked as his lips slowly formed into a mischievous smile. He continued, "Of course, they will not be suspicious. However, that would only be the case at the very beginning. Once Elvis appeared in the Evergreen royal family's castle, that would immediately change,"

"Think about it; Elvis was just rescued from one of their laboratories last night, then the very next day we gathered all of the Executives of the Mischievous Lion Guild together to come to the Emerald City, and then all of a sudden we began attracting the attention of their members to us. Such an action would have been just fine, especially considering that almost everyone views the Naughty Elves organization in an antagonistic way. But what followed after that was Elvis appearing in the Evergreen royal family's castle. That alone is already very suspicious because, before Elvis even appeared, their members were being deliberately lured unto us,"

"Once they connect all of those dots together, they will easily arrive at the conclusion that we have deliberately attracted all of their member's attention to us so that Elvis can successfully sneak inside the Evergreen royal family's castle without any of their members noticing. From that alone as well, it wouldn't be that difficult anymore to confirm that we are indeed part of the alliance created by the Evergreen royal family," Leo paused before ending his words with, "Always remember this; never underestimate your opponents, especially if your opponent is an organization as big as the Naughty Elves organization. It is absolutely impossible for such a big organization to actually be under the leadership of a bunch of idiots and foolish people. If that is really the case, then the Emerald Tree Kingdom wouldn't have been so wary of them at this very moment,"

"But our action is already very suspicious nonetheless," Elizabeth objected. 

"That's why we shouldn't make it even more suspicious. With our detours and wasting time, they will only think that we are indeed here to prepare for the upcoming ball in the Evergreen royal family's castle. But once we attack them, and attract even more of their attention, or to be more precise, suspicion, to us, only then would we end up becoming an actual diversion for Elvis to sneak inside the Evergreen royal family's castle," Leo heave a sigh of helplessness before continuing, "Its like this; it is only natural for everyone who will attend the ball to bring only relevant people with them, right? And so, bringing all of the Executives of the Mischievous Lion Guild with me to order custom-made suits and dresses, makes total sense, as it simply meant that I will be bringing all of you with me to the ball tomorrow," 

"The only reason why the members of the Naughty Elves organization are really following after us is because they have assumed us as one of their suspicious suspects that have attacked one of their laboratories. After all, Elvis is now a member of the Mischievous Lion Guild. So what we are going to do is, we would just simply make their suspicions remained in such a level," Leo can't help shaking his head to express how troublesome it is to explain the reason for all of his actions. He continued, "Why am I even explaining my actions to all of you. In short, let's just continue with what we are doing and not cause even more suspicion on us, understood?" 

"Yes," Cassandra and the others quickly nodded their heads in understanding and to also avoid irritating Leo. With such a long explanation, only someone who is really stupid would not be able to understand what Leo really meant exactly, and they are definitely not one of those people.

"Anyways, Eilajah and Steve are already here. It's time to go to our final destination," Leo said before heaving a sigh of relief. With Eilajah and Steve here, he finally doesn't need to continue explaining anymore. 

After Eilajah and Steve got inside the fifth carriage, all the carriages then quickly began moving. 

Seeing the carriages of the Mischievous Lion Guild starting to move, the members of the Naughty Elves organization secretly following behind them immediately followed suit and maintain their contact with them.

The final destination that Leo meant was their main intention for visiting the Emerald City that was already mentioned earlier, the Tailoring stores, where they would be ordering custom-made suits and dresses. 

The location of the Tailoring Association and any Tailoring-related establishments were located hundreds of meters beside the Blacksmith Association, which is likewise located hundreds of meters after the Magical Beasts Tamer Association. 

Since the distance between the Magical Beasts Tamer Association and the Tailoring Association wasn't really considered that far, especially using a carriage, it didn't take Leo and the others that long to finally arrive in the location.

They already knew where the best Tailoring store in Emerald City is located at, so their carriages went straight towards that location. 

However, as soon as they arrived at that place, they were immediately faced with a really big problem...

In front of them was the best Tailoring store that exists in Emerald City, the Pinkston Tailoring store. And right at the very entrance of the store were hundreds of people forming a really long line, reaching beyond what their eyes could see.

"It seems like we might have a need to reconsider again the Tailoring store that we have chosen," Angel suggested. 

"There's absolutely no possible way that I will be lining in such a long line. It is not worth it just for a custom-made dress!" Veronica didn't hesitate to express her objection.

"Well, what could we expect from the best Tailoring store in the Emerald City, right?" Ash turned to look at Leo helplessly. 

Knock! Knock! 

Outside the carriage, Ethan began knocking on the door. Angel quickly opened it as everyone then stepped out one by one.

"I just heard from one of those people lining up that they have been lining there ever since yesterday morning, and that the line we are actually seeing right now is not even the tip of the iceberg because some people here are apparently only lining up for somebody else," Ethan informed. He also didn't forget to add, "I also tried to bribe one of those people at the very front, but surprisingly enough, he said that he already has enough money to spend for the rest of his life,"

Edward nodded his head and added more information, "And what's even more surprising is; that guy is actually just a scalper... Not only him, but almost everyone lining up here are merely scalpers. Can you believe that?"

"He told us that almost every year something similar to this always happened as if it is like an annual event or something similar to that. So, when the day of the ball is near, fellow scalpers would begin lining up in all of the Tailoring stores throughout the entire Emerald Tree Kingdom to earn a lot of money,"

"By the way, what they meant about a lot is; in just merely two short days, they can earn up to 100,000 gold coins just from people reserving their spots! And that's even just the bare minimum because one scalper can have up to three to five people reserving their spots at the same exact time,"

"It is really out of my expectations that a business that allows ordinary people like scalpers to earn enough money to live for the rest of their lives would actually exist! No wonder that the Emerald City is so prosperous.... No, to be more precise, the entire Emerald Tree Kingdom!"
