Chapter 233 Lyon: Everyone, stop arguing because of me.

"Are you leaving me again?"

Ophie Marceau was no longer angry and turned to stare at Lyon.

"There's nothing I can do. His Highness told me not to associate with bad women."

"They're trying to seduce you, so how can they not be bad women?"

"If Your Highness also seduced me, does that make you a bad woman?"

"I'm different! I'm here to save your life! They all approached you for their own reasons!"

Just then, a clear voice rang in—

"Bad woman? No wonder she's a princess, she can so easily slander others."

Lyon turned around and saw Iris and Britta flying down from the sky.

The two landed one after the other. Burelita smoothed the wind-blown strands of her dark hair from her forehead and gave a cold smile:

“Ophimaso, we were being hunted down by you, and when we saw you in trouble, we came to your aid without holding a grudge, and this is how you slander us? Calling us bad women? Everyone says you are the most respectable hero of the new generation in the kingdom, but today I have seen your true nature. You are nothing but a nobody.”

This was an unusually angry reaction from Britta.

She was the most composed of the three women, rarely experiencing significant emotional fluctuations, and always presented herself with a remarkably pure and elegant demeanor.

However, Leon always felt that her anger wasn't because of the words "bad woman," or something else entirely...

Iris rushed over and shoved herself between Leon and Ophie Marceau, meeting Ophie Marceau's gaze:

"Princess, you are at least a fifth-level senior expert. How can you lean on Lyon like this? Don't you have any sense of shame as a strong person?"

Orpheus sneered:

“I’m exhausted right now, both physically and mentally overloaded. Isn’t it perfectly normal for me to lean on my future husband? But you, Elise, are always clinging to my future husband. Aren’t you ashamed?”

Iris suddenly felt cold and angry, and was about to say something.

"Alright, alright, everyone, stop arguing over me."

Lyon reluctantly interjected, trying to act as a peacemaker.

The three men glared at Leon and said in unison:

"Now that you know you're the reason, why don't you shut up?!"

Lyon immediately realized that the three of them were already furious.

He kept a low profile and quietly distanced himself from the three of them.

In fact, in his previous life, he would not have actively intervened in women's quarrels.

This approach can easily lead to a failed attempt to mediate and can also result in trouble for the victim.

The result proved my experience true.

Go ahead and fight. As long as you don't kill them, you can come back later to clean up and heal them.

Once the anger subsides, the situation will naturally be easier to handle.

Fortunately, Leon had done a good job of putting on a good show, and there was indeed a series of coincidences in the Orpheus affair. Both Iris and Britta believed that the blame lay with Orpheus, not with Leon's infidelity, and they did not really point the finger at Leon.

As for Ophie Marceau, she had already heard Leon's statement and knew that he wanted to have multiple wives. Therefore, her goal was now clearer: to repel the attacks of Britta and Iris and make them give up on Leon.

For a moment, the two sides engaged in a heated exchange.

The main accusations in the content.

Ophie Marceau's main accusation was that Leon was already confirmed as her future husband, so why did they still interfere with their happiness? She said that she had already shown mercy to them because they were war heroes, and they should be grateful, and so on.

Brelitta's main accusation is that Leon is my strategist. She claims that Leon deliberately framed her to poach her, leading to widespread rumors that have reached not only the Legion's knights but also the stranded adventurers on the 41st floor, making the situation uncontrollable. She is despicable and malicious!

Iris's accusations were similar to those of Berelita, but she emphasized that she represented the Holy Land of Elves and hoped that the princess would not cause trouble and lead to chaos in the capital. She had learned to be smart and knew to put pressure on Ophimaso from a different angle.

After listening for a while, Leon saw that their words were relatively calm. Although they were arguing, they didn't seem to intend to fight. He then knew that leaving was the right choice.

If I were there, they would definitely be easily provoked by one or two unintentional actions.

Therefore, Leon decided to first rescue the seriously injured Sulto and Moron.

Both of them are at least at the sixth level, with strong vitality and stable physical strength. As long as it's not a fatal injury like decapitation or heart damage, they can basically recover.

Lyon shook his head as he cast a spell; the woman forgot about the important matter when she started arguing.

Sigh, being handsome is just a bad thing.

At this moment, Timia also arrived.

She glanced at Ophie Marceau and the other two, then her eyes flickered as she looked at Leon:

"Tsk tsk tsk, Lyon, you really have a lot of complicated love affairs. How many innocent girls have cried for you?"

Leon didn't want to bother with Timia. If he did, she would definitely entangle him, and then the three people next door would probably come after him immediately.

That would make things even more chaotic.

It's not bad to put them in a temporary triangular balance; they pull each other along, which makes things easier for me.

Of course, their entanglement will make things difficult for Leon later, but that's okay. Once he leaves the dungeon, he can take them down one by one!

The only limitation now is the venue!

At this point, he had finished casting spells on Morun and Xuertuo, and now it was up to these two to slowly recover using their powerful physiques.

Saide walked over and pointed to the Great Magician Tangde, who was still convulsing on the ground:

"Lady Timia, please use your purification magic to save Tang De."

Timia pouted when she saw that Leon ignored her, and began casting a spell.

She is a master of both water and fire elements, and naturally knows intermediate water healing and water purification techniques.

Previously, the Shadow Curse of the Shadow Spider couldn't be dealt with, but regular curses can usually be dealt with using the Water Purification spell.

However, when Timia's intermediate water healing spell landed on Tang De, it was clearly deflected by a magical ray of light.

"Oops!"

Said exclaimed in a low voice, "If it doesn't work, isn't old Tang De going to die?"

Seeing this, Leon said thoughtfully:

"It seems that this is a curse isolation spell that the Great Magician Tangde has set for himself. Although he looks very uncomfortable, he is in a good condition because he is isolated from the curse magic. He just needs time to slowly dissipate on his own."

Timia glanced at Leon in surprise:

"Sometimes I wonder why you are so young yet so knowledgeable. You not only know the weaknesses of all kinds of monsters, but you can even see through such rare isolation magic."

Beside him, Saide nodded in agreement.

"Indeed, I've had quite a lot of experience, but I didn't recognize him."

Leon smiled, pointed upwards, and said:

"All knowledge can be obtained from the ocean of knowledge, and I am just able to digest more rare knowledge than others."

Timia didn't believe Leon's nonsense. She smiled and pressed herself against him, whispering seductively in his ear:

"Young man Lyon, you're such a mysterious person, I'm becoming more and more fascinated by you. Tell me, what would it take for you to spend the night at my mansion?"

Upon hearing this, the three women not far away suddenly turned their heads and looked over at the same time.

Chapter 234 Leon's Advice

The three women's gazes were so sharp that even Timia, who was used to big scenes, felt a little intimidated.

After the initial shock subsided, she instinctively covered her mouth and smiled nonchalantly.

"Hey, what's wrong with you three? Keep arguing? Why aren't you arguing anymore?"

Ophimosa strode over.

"Timia, don't attack Leon!"

Timia glanced upwards: "Huh, making a move? Making what move?"

She was clearly pretending to be stupid.

Lyon cleared his throat and said:

"Let's get down to business, everyone."

Serious business?

This attracted the attention of several people.

The main reason was that Timia's acting was so realistic that everyone subconsciously overlooked her danger.

In fact, she is the most audacious in her words and actions.

Lyon continued, "Your Highness, did you previously plan to open the divine ruins connected to the sacred murals?"

Ophimosa's heart skipped a beat, and she glanced sideways at Timia:

"Why do you tell everyone everything? Even if Leon is destined to be my future husband, why tell him about something so dangerous so quickly?"

Timia shook her head: "I didn't say anything. I guess Leon probably guessed it himself."

"That's right, that's my guess."

Lyon looked at Orpheus:

“Your Highness, let’s set aside what happened before, but the sacred mural’s sacred energy is almost depleted. Even if Machiru were to advance to the fifth rank now, she might not be able to activate this divine relic.”

"Divine energy has been extracted?"

As Ophimaso listened, her eyes suddenly lit up, and she smiled:

"Leon, it seems that you were the one who was spying the day before the monster tide."

Although she was quite certain it was Leon, she lacked evidence, and a series of unexpected events had almost caused her to overlook the matter, instead focusing on 'how to get Leon to agree to marry me'.

Now that she heard Leon claim to have guessed it, she knew that if he hadn't spied on the monster tide the day before and learned the basic information, Leon wouldn't have been able to guess these things.

Moreover, she was somewhat shocked that Leon could guess so much based on such vague information.

Even the Silver Badge Group couldn't guess what she was planning to do.

Moron and the others only knew that what Ophimaso was doing was important and might involve some ancient relics, but they didn't know if it was related to divine relics.

The only one who knew the details was Timia.

Thinking of Lyon's keen insight and astonishing wisdom, Ophie Marceau became even more eager.

Once Lyon becomes my husband, what great undertakings will I not be able to accomplish?

Moreover, she discovered that Leon was a real gem; the more time she spent with him, the more surprises she found. Wouldn't it be wonderful to conquer someone like that?

[Character Ophimosa's affection level +2%, current affection level 77%]

Lyon hadn't expected that a single sentence would increase Orpheus's favorability.

This led Lyon to conclude that when a man and a woman experience certain special events, their affection for each other will increase rapidly until they encounter the next bottleneck.

I wonder at what stage this wave of favorability with Ophie Marceau will get stuck.

That's fine. While Ophie Marceau's favorability is still going up, Leon plans to push forward with a few tasks that he hasn't quite finished yet.

In particular, the two main character quests, "The Chosen Ones" and "The Sacred Works of the Kings," offer generous rewards, providing a perfect opportunity to promote the collaboration between Ophimaso and Berylita.

This also paves the way for the two to get along peacefully.

According to his idea, if the power of the monarchy and the power of the gods are managed well, it is not impossible for them to advance together.

However, in the meantime, we still need to address Ophie Marceau's question.

Leon shrugged and laughed frankly:

"I thought that Your Highness's fabricated astrologer lie that day had already confirmed that I was the one who went to spy on you."
