On Leon's end, he followed Roman to the Morrisons' mansion and obtained the Rainbow Fruit.
After bidding farewell, he followed Fletcher to the Dragon Corps.
Just then, he received a call from Hugo and learned that the Morrisons agreed to his terms, intending to work with Cynthion Group.
He came to the western region specifically to establish a partnership with the Morrisons to expand Cynthion Group's market.
The Morrisons agreeing to the terms worked perfectly to his advantage.
Initially, he wanted to hurry back to the hotel to discuss further terms with Caleb and the others.
However, he already agreed to go to the Dragon Corps and Fletcher was extremely sincere when he extended the invitation, so Leon could not possibly go back on his words.
Hence, he could only tell Hugo and the others to wait at home and they could discuss further when he came back.
Fletcher felt glad that he followed Leon to the Morrisons' mansion, after all. Otherwise, Leon might have given up on going to the Dragon Corps.
With that, Leon followed Fletcher, Howard, and another Dragon Guard to the western branch of the Dragon Corps.
...
Still, he needed to seek Leon's approval before that.
However, before Leon had the chance to do so, Howard said, "You, you're being a fool! Forget it. If you want to take him in, do as you please. If this enrages Mister Orpwood, don't blame me for not warning you!"
He felt that bringing Leon along was inappropriate all along and tried to talk Fletcher out of it multiple times.
Yet, Fletcher refused to listen and insisted on bringing Leon into the base of the Dragon Corps.
This frustrated him, so he decided not to get involved and strode inside without hesitation.
