Leo walked out from the bush he was hiding from and approached Elmont and Osborne. He said while clapping his hand, "Good job, you two,"

"Guess who finally decided to reveal himself," Elmont sarcastically remarked. 

"I just don't want to trouble myself. And besides, it was pretty obvious already that the two of you are more than enough to handle them," Leo simply shrugged his shoulder off at Elmont's response. He then continued, "Anyways, have you taken all of their items?" 

"Already done," Osborne replied as he waved his hand, quickly taking out all the contents of the Storage Rings of the two Elves.

Instantly, two backpacks, two water canteens, six small bags of dried rations, two ropes with grappling hooks, five steel swords, two wooden shields, a bow, three quivers that contains thirty pieces of arrows each, six metal daggers, and last but certainly not the least, two leather chest armors, appeared on the ground. 

Sadly, there were no medicine kits to be found, which is one of the most useful items in case of emergency. Another bad news was that there were also no extra clothes that they could have worn to warm their bodies. 

"Adding the two animal fur clothing that they are wearing, damaged wooden shield, and steel sword, we undoubtedly got ourselves a huge harvest," Leo said in delight. 

Just like what they have expected before, getting weapons from players is much more effective compared to looking for chests. The latter could give them more items that no chests could possibly provide them. Not only that, but they can also reduce the number of players by doing this as well. 

In the next moment, Leo and the others quickly divided the items from the two Elves.

Leo received the bow and three quivers that contains a total of ninety pieces of arrows, plus all the daggers. He also took one of the ropes with a grappling hook. 

On the other hand, Elmont received two steel swords, one wooden shield, and the remaining rope with a grappling hook. 

And lastly, Osborne received four steel swords and the two remaining wooden shields, including the damaged one. 

As for the rest of the items, Leo handed Elmont and Osborne a fair share of them. While also keeping his own portion of the share. 

Meanwhile, the two animal fur clothing that the two Elves were wearing were given to Leo and Elmont as it was impossible for Osborne to fit in one of them due to his huge body size. Though, the latter received the two leather chest armors, which he dismantled and used to wrap his shoulders instead since it was too small for him as well.

In spite of that though, they were all still feeling the coldness from the snowstorm, especially Osborne who only has leather armor to cover his shoulder. 

"I'll grab some stick so that we can light it up on fire to keep us warm," Leo said as he quickly went to look for a stick. 

With countless trees in their surroundings, it didn't take that long for Leo to return with a few dozens of sticks in his hand. 

Leo stored the rest of the sticks and gave  Elmont and Osborne one each. Without wasting any time, they light the stick with a Fireball spell, albeit a weaker version to avoid destroying the stick.

"Fireball!"

"Fireball!"

"Fireball!"

As soon as the stick burned with fire, their surroundings finally felt a bit warm. Though it wasn't much, it could at least lessen their feeling of coldness.

"Let's continue moving," Leo said before he started walking towards the northwest direction.

But before Leo could even get farther away, Elmont quickly express his objection, "But wouldn't that make us a walking target similar to these two Elves?"

"I agree," Osborne nodded his head in agreement.

Hearing Elmont and Osborne's words, Leo halted in his footsteps and turned around. He said, "That's exactly what we want, right?"

"Well, yeah... But we also don't want someone to ambush us," Elmont replied in concern.

"Why don't we continue moving after we warm our bodies enough?" Osborne suggested. 

Shaking his head, Leo then proclaims confidently, "Don't worry, no one will be able to ambush us. Just trust me. And if there would be one, I'll give each of you one hundred thousand gold coins. Or if we get eliminated because of it, I'll make sure to give your teams compensation that can satisfy all of you,"

"Let's not talk about any bets or compensation, as that would just cause harm to our alliance," Elmont didn't hesitate to dismiss Leo's proposal. He then asked, "Instead, how confident exactly are you?"

"From one to one hundred percent, I am ninety-nine point ninety-nine percent confident," Leo said in assurance. 

Since Leo was very confident with his claim, Elmont decided to give up and put their safety in Leo's hands, "I trust you,"

"Likewise," Osborne also expressed his trust in Leo.

"Rest assured, I will definitely not break the trust that the both of you have given me," Leo swore. 

Unbeknownst to Elmont and Osborne, while he was following the two Elves from behind a while ago, he was actually also summoning dozens of Wind Elementals in a toy soldier form at the same time without anyone noticing his action. That is because he was constantly hiding in really good locations. In that case, he naturally will not waste such a perfect opportunity to summon his Elementals. After all, as long as he has his Elementals around, it would be really difficult to defeat him, let alone ambush him.

With them reaching a conclusion, Leo then continued leading Elmont and Osborne to the northwest. Following around them hundreds of meters away are Wind Elementals in toy soldier form, creating a circular perimeter where no one could cross without getting noticed by them.

Meanwhile, the moment Leo and the others walked farther away from their previous location, two spheres of light suddenly covered the bodies of the two Elves, marking that they got eliminated from the Survival Games.

Following after, the staff of the Emerald Elven Battle Competition quickly arrived and took them away from the stage.

With two players eliminated, there are now only twenty-three players remaining in the Survival Games.
