You are all my wings...

"Tsk tsk, poor Tang De, after studying magic for so many years, he has only ever touched the hands of his family and young girls."

Saide looked at Tangde with a pitiful expression.

"Hmph! You swine, you spend every night in brothels, what's so praiseworthy about that?"

Tang De angrily sprayed Sai De.

"With my charm, women line up for me, but I'm afraid of the trouble women cause, so I only sleep with those who pay me."

Saide patted Tang De on the shoulder, then turned and left.

"I'm going to check out other assassins. I'm off."

Beside him, Moron's eyes flashed with a thoughtful look: Could it be that Leon's strength is related to His Highness's secret training? He seems to be the Saintess's man, but in reality, His Highness has already taken him under her thumb?

Tang De looked at Moron from the side:

"What did you say, Moron?"

"How so? Of course, it's better to catch the assassin as soon as possible."

"No, I'm talking about the young man Lyon and His Highness. Wasn't there something strange about what happened just now?"

"What's so strange about it?"

Moron doesn't really want to talk to Tang De anymore; that guy can be pretty stubborn sometimes.

"I mean, how did Leon end up there? Isn't he one of the Saintess's men?"

Tang De asked.

"Uh, didn't you hear that rumor?"

Moron remained silent.

"What rumor?"

"You mean that guy Leon Belon has been secretly dating His Highness for a long time? Haven't you heard?"

"I didn't follow it."

Tang De looked indifferent:

"Doesn't this sound obviously fake? His Highness mentioned it to us several times before, saying he wanted to find a way to win over Leon Belon, right? This doesn't seem like a romantic relationship at all."

"What? Your Highness left Lyon alone in that romantic atmosphere? Don't you understand? It's obviously just the two of them having some fun! Perhaps Your Highness had been looking for an opportunity to tell us all along, but it was inconvenient to say so. I think the so-called solicitation before was just a prelude she made."

Moron's words were incredibly resolute.

"Impossible. Her Highness the Princess is resolute and devoted to the country. Why would she make such a fuss over such a trivial matter?"

"So you don't understand. No matter how strong you are, you still have physiological needs, right? And Leon is such an outstanding genius, with such outstanding looks. He even brought His Highness back alone during the great battle. Such affection must have been very deep by now, right?"

When Moron thought back to the scene of his duel with Lyon, he was envious and jealous for a long time afterward, but now that he has figured out his relationship with His Highness, he is no longer jealous.

On the contrary, they were extremely happy!

Although Lyon is of low status, his genius is enough to make him a worthy match for His Highness.

After all, there aren't many young people on the mainland who are of higher status than His Highness.

Even if they exist, they aren't human!

Moron couldn't possibly think that marrying His Highness out was a good choice, so thinking about it that way, he really did think that Lyon was barely a match for His Highness.

Upon seeing Moron's expression, Tang De immediately let out a cold snort:

"I will definitely prove you and Moron wrong, just you wait and see!"

……

At the same time.

Inside the Saintess's tent.

Britta stepped out of the tent, her gaze sweeping over the surroundings:

"Strange, why are so many people gathering around the princess all of a sudden?"

Leon's espionage was no small matter, so she kept a close eye on the surrounding area to prevent any accidents.

Before long, they noticed fighting outside Ophimaso's tent and immediately went out.

Iris also came out with concern:

"Could it be that Lyon's spying has been discovered?"

"possible."

Brillet found it tricky.

Given Lyon's shrewdness, it's unlikely he would make a mistake so easily.

In particular, she also learned that Leon used materials from the fifth-tier Shadow Scorpion to upgrade his rank, resulting in a significant boost.

She only agreed to let Leon go and spy after she had personally witnessed Leon's demonstration and confirmed that it was sufficiently concealed.

Logically speaking, Lyon wasn't caught red-handed before his promotion, and now that many people are exhausted and resting after the war, he shouldn't have been discovered at all.

"What should we do then? Should we go straight there and see if we can rescue Leon?"

Elizabeth was in a hurry.

“Let’s go, Iris. Now that things have come to this, we have no choice but to step in together.”

Berylita pondered for a moment, then made up her mind.

They quickly left a note for Macchiato, who was lost in thought, and rushed over.

However, they were acting strangely.

She had only taken a few steps out of the tent when Burelita suddenly stopped Iris and hissed:

"Who is it?"

"As expected of the Holy Maiden, even though I wasn't obviously disguised, she still sensed my arrival."

Ahead, a short, thin, masked man quietly emerged in a gentle breeze.

"A halfling?"

"That's right, I am Mshifisu from the Silver Badge Magic Illusion Troupe. I would like to discuss a collaboration with Her Majesty the Saintess. What do you think?"

……

Although the conversation among the sixth-level players was very quiet.

But with Leon's agility at this moment, and the added benefit of the Shadow Walker, he was still able to hear some of it.

He was speechless. Why was the wind blowing in such a skewed direction?

Moreover, judging from this, it's not just those few sixth-tier players who think this way; other strong fifth-tier players also have similar judgments.

Doesn't this just confirm the rumors even more?

"Now that everyone's gone, let's continue talking."

Ophimosa walked over in a deep voice.

To be honest, she was also a bit confused; this situation was indeed difficult to handle.

It's undeniable that she had feelings for Leon, finding him outstanding, unique, intelligent, and charming, and she was indeed drawn to him on many occasions.

She had also inadvertently harbored some fantasies about Leon, and indeed had some vague expectations.

But this affection hadn't reached the level of romantic love, or rather, she believed that she could never fall in love with anyone, nor could she possibly put her heart into romantic love, so she firmly cut off many other thoughts.

Now that her body has been seen, she has to consider how to deal with the current problem from a realistic perspective.

If she were just an ordinary woman, being seen in such an obviously accidental situation would be unavoidable, and she would have no choice but to accept the loss.

But she is now a princess, and the royal family has clear rules. Moreover, a group of people witnessed part of the situation, which further confirms the rumors that were accidentally spread before, making it impossible to let this matter go easily.

But he didn't want Leon to die.

Whether it's out of emotion, morality, or even self-interest, she finds it hard to accept Leon's death.

Given the circumstances, marriage seems to be the best option.

And she could also take Leon away from the saintess and bring him under her wing, much to Britta's chagrin.

Of course, she would never consider romantic love!

She has made up her mind and is determined not to waste time and energy on such things!

This is just a name!

Even if they get married, it will only be to prevent Leon from being beheaded by his father after he leaves the dungeon!

It would also be a good thing if it could help them avoid being forced into marriages with other races.

...In short, she still needed to confirm whether the person in front of her was worth doing this for.

"Leon Belon, tell me carefully why you're here."

"Because I heard rumors, I came to Your Highness to clarify them."

Lyon replied, half-jokingly.

At the same time, he activated his self-buff mode of the trust halo.

"That's all?"

"Yes, Your Highness seems to know about rumors too, doesn't he?"

"So, you're saying that you discovered the assassin when you came here, which is why you were forced to come here."

"Your Highness is indeed discerning."

Lyon praised it.

"Hmph, you just said that my body and Timia's body are works of art, so let me ask you, which one do you think is better?"

Orpheus stared at Lyon.

Beside her, Timiya said with a hint of annoyance:

"I'm also curious, Lyon, who do you think is in better physical condition?"

As she spoke, her eyebrows curved upwards, as if she liked the situation and was looking forward to an interesting answer from Leon.

Lyon was speechless. Judging from Ophie Marceau's words, she would decide how to deal with me based on my answer.

So, are there still wrong choices at this point?

He began by saying:

"It cannot be denied that Lady Timia's body is indeed beautiful, a body that can be described as being kissed by the gods."

Orpheus raised an eyebrow and tightened his grip on the Dragon Slayer Sword.

Dimiya's eyes lit up.

"But I prefer Your Highness's body."

Lyon deliberately took a deep breath here.

"Just a liking for the body?"

Ophimosa sneered.

[Character Ophimosa's affection level +2%, current affection level 53%]

Huh, is this guy all talk and no action?

Lyon smiled inwardly.

No matter how much you may seem annoying on the surface, in reality, a woman dresses up for the one who pleases her.

So, the choice now is to praise Ophie Marceau's body or her soul?

Of course we'll celebrate together!
