After all, pureblood elves are inherently a superior race, naturally dominating humans.
Ophimosa's face darkened: "Miss Iris, do you think I need everyone to see my body to prove myself?"
Iris retorted, "I don't know, who knows if you're lying or not."
This conversation is going nowhere.
Lyon shook his head secretly.
No, given the current situation, it's unlikely that they can deny it anymore.
Despite having the identity of Berylita, she was genuinely robbed and robbed. If she really wanted to prove it, she only needed to ask the kingdom's rare professional liar to examine her, and then she would know that Ophimaso's words were not false.
Lyon's main hope was that Orpheus could temporarily resolve the matter by following the steps provided by Berylita.
After that, all that's needed is to find a way to refute the rumors, and the problem will be solved.
Unexpectedly, Ophie Marceau was determined to marry him.
Is it because of my own actions that I raised the favorability rating too high?
Strangely, the affection level is only 62%, barely passing the lover line, and it hasn't reached a very deep level yet.
Could it be that the arrival of Iris and Brielita had the opposite effect?
Did this fuel Orpheus's rebellious attitude?
Thinking of this, Leon reached out and patted Iris on the shoulder, saying:
“Elise, it is true that I saw it, there is no need to argue about it.”
Elizabeth knew there was no point in arguing anymore, so she could only whimper a couple of times.
Then she whispered to Lyon:
"Damn it! It was clearly the princess who condoned these rumors. She must have been plotting something behind the scenes, setting a trap to frame you!"
Lyon is ashamed; Elizabeth's move was brilliant.
Speaking ill of Ophie Marceau in front of her and standing so close to me, doesn't she know how agile Ophie Marceau is?
Sure enough, Ophie Marceau's face darkened, and she took a step forward, grabbed Leon's wrist, and pulled him away.
She was the most agile player in the entire arena, and she was virtually invincible in close combat.
Although Birelita is strong, her strength mainly lies in her spellcasting, and she is only at the fourth rank. Her agility is only half that of Ophima, so she can't react at all if she's not prepared.
“Miss Iris, although you and my future husband have a good friendship, you are single after all. It would be better to keep a distance and not be so intimate with my future husband.”
"Ophimaso said calmly."
Lyon's agility was indeed high, but in front of Orpheus, he was completely outmatched in both rank and agility attribute, so he had no chance to fight back at close range and could only be forced to pull away.
Of course, if you really want to find a way to avoid Ophima's grab, you can still do it with high-speed spellcasting.
But that would have made things very ugly, so Lyon let the grab go.
Elizabeth glared angrily at Ophimaso:
“Leon hasn’t even agreed yet, what right do you have to call yourself Leon your future husband? He’s mine… mine…”
"Your what?"
Ophimosa sneered.
Iris was stared at by Ophimaso's piercing gaze. She held out for a while, but finally gave in and dared not utter those words.
On one hand, it's her nature; the closer it gets, the less she dares to clarify the relationship. She's afraid that if she tells Leon, he'll look at her differently (in reality, she's overthinking it and doesn't realize that her act of stealing a kiss has already been exposed). This is what they mean by being overly concerned and hesitant.
If it were when she had just reached 60 or 70 points of favorability, she would probably have readily accepted it if someone had provoked her.
Secondly, Ophimaso was indeed arrogant. As a strong fifth-level expert who had mastered legendary combat skills two levels above her current level, the first female protagonist was experienced and resolute. Once she made up her mind, she would not easily change it. With this powerful aura, Iris was able to hold her own at first by relying on her pride.
But when she realized what her words would mean, she immediately withered away.
"Since there's no special relationship between you, step aside. This has nothing to do with the affairs of your Elven Holy Land."
Ophimosa raised the victory flag high and took the opportunity to mock Elis.
It's just that Iris has less say now and looks younger; if it were Grani, Ophie Marceau probably wouldn't use that tone.
Of course, whether Ophie Marceau felt uncomfortable seeing Iris and Leon's close and natural relationship was something she herself couldn't say for sure.
In short, she is very happy now.
Iris was enraged by the mockery. Her face turned red, and she began to organize her thoughts, considering how to retaliate.
"Your Highness, regarding your proposal..."
At this moment, Leon spoke up at the opportune moment:
“I don’t think the current situation is suitable for a detailed discussion. How about we put it aside for now and give you an answer after I’ve calmed down?”
We need to cool down.
If we don't calm him down, he might say something like, "Stop fighting!"
That situation would be very difficult to manage.
It would be even more embarrassing if he prematurely ignited the conflict between the Papacy and the court, causing the situation to collapse further.
Ophimosa glanced at Lyon:
"If you had said this before, I might have let you go, but now it seems that if I let you go, I might never see you again."
Lyon was speechless; those words were truly scathing.
Why does it feel like Orpheus is getting stronger and stronger?
So, was she really motivated by Britta and Iris?
Britta scoffed, “Lyon is my advisor, and I have important matters to discuss with him. Ophie Marceau, you’ve only extended an invitation, but the marriage hasn’t actually taken place yet, has it?”
"Let him go, but leave his head behind."
"Ophimosa said calmly, while toying with the Dragon Slayer Sword in his hand, the threat was quite obvious."
Lyon knew that Orpheus would never cut off his own head, but in this situation, Britta probably wouldn't dare to gamble either.
Timia knew it was her turn to speak, so she chuckled and tried to smooth things over:
"Everyone, calm down. The monster tide hasn't completely subsided yet. It's not good for us to start fighting amongst ourselves so soon, is it? Besides, Ophie, didn't you have a plan that required the Saintess's help?"
She kept giving Ophim Maso meaningful glances.
Chapter 220 He is also my one and only
Upon hearing this, Ophimaso's expression softened slightly, and she said:
“Now that things have come to this, I don’t want to make things too ugly. You can replace as many advisors as you want, but my husband, now and in the future, can only be one. He is so unique to me, and you don’t want to make things so tense with me over an advisor who can be replaced so easily, do you?”
She said it with such confidence and conviction.
Lyon was speechless. Ophie Marceau was still the kind of person who resisted matters between men and women, yet she was so shameless.
Birelita said in a deep voice:
"For me, Lyon is also a one-of-a-kind... strategist!"
She paused for a moment before uttering the last four words.
"That's just a strategist! Lyon will be my future husband!"
Ophimosa's expression flickered upon hearing this, before she smiled.
“However, arguing like this is not a solution. How about this, you two leave first, and Leon stays. I'll talk to him all night and convince him. That way, you won't have any reason to argue about him anymore, right?”
Timia was speechless. Had Orpheus gone mad?
The more they talk, the more outrageous it gets.
Given her aversion to matters between men and women, would she really be willing to spend a night with a man?
She coughed lightly:
"Ophie, are you sure what spending a night with Leon means?"
"I know."
Ophimosa remained calm.
"Don't worry, I won't do anything filthy, Timia. You know me, I've always disdained such things. I just intend to learn more about Leon's past. After all, he knows so much about me, while I know so little about him."
"Heh, Orpheus, this is your greatest selfishness. A person who disdains love between men and women dares to talk about someone else being your one and only husband. It's truly pathetic for Lyon."
Berylita suddenly laughed, abandoning her usual elegance and composure, her words laced with sarcasm.
Upon hearing this, Ophima frowned and was about to speak.
And it was at this moment—
Berylita suddenly cast a spell.
A powerful beam of holy light shot towards Ophie Marceau without warning. Sensing the danger, she grabbed Leon and tried to retreat.
At that moment, Britta reached out and grabbed Leon's wrist, pulling him back.
Boom!
The tents were instantly obliterated by the holy light, and the ground dozens of meters around them was scorched by the high temperature, releasing an astonishingly hot, reddish liquid that hissed and emitted terrifying heat.
Brett Rita acted too hastily, and it was not foreseen that she would lose control of Lyon so quickly.
After all, at that distance, even she could only dodge when faced with such high-speed and powerful magic.
"Since we can't continue this conversation, let's part ways for now, Orpheus."
Following closely behind, Britta pulled Leon along and ran quickly forward.
Iris also jumped up and quickly followed.
Because of Berylita's sudden spell, Ophimaso and Timia were forced to retreat to a distance and could only watch helplessly as Leon ran away.
Ophimosa raised an eyebrow, her tone laced with anger:
"Breita, how dare you steal my future husband?"
Timia was secretly pleased. "Ophie, Ophie, it's not that I don't want to help you, but you're too caught up in it right now and have lost your mind. Once you come to your senses, you'll definitely regret all those crazy things you just did."
"Timia, after her!"
Ophimasso shouted the command:
"Everyone, everyone who can move, chase after him! Don't let Leon Belon get away!"
As soon as she finished speaking, she jumped up and quickly followed.
With her agility and stamina, she was confident she could easily catch up even if Berylita got ahead.
The order for others to pursue was primarily to restrict the escape route of the saintess and Leon.
Just as Timia had guessed, Ophimaso was indeed out of control, doing things she would never have done in the past.
Given her rationality, she would have put the matter aside long ago when Burelita came over and offered her the steps.
Unexpectedly, after witnessing the intimacy between Iris and Leon, she lost her mind much faster than she had anticipated.
No, or rather, what she lost was not rationality, but rather a long-standing compromise on certain things.
As a commander and a prominent figure in the royal family bearing countless heavy responsibilities, she has never been one to act unilaterally, but rather has made many compromises through more conciliatory means in order to achieve certain goals.
Only when she was the general leading the charge did she feel the exhilaration of letting go of everything.
For her, fighting monsters wasn't a burden; managing them was.
This is also why she was so eager to recruit Leon after discovering his many outstanding qualities.
However, just minutes before, she realized that her purpose had vaguely changed.
She hadn't thought carefully about what this meant; she simply let anger wash over her without trying to suppress it.
Given her strong sense of self-control, suppressing this anger would have been no problem for her.
In an instant, a thought flashed through her mind: Yes, perhaps she was provoked, or perhaps she harbored some resentment, so she wanted to indulge herself.
