You are all my wings...

Upon hearing this, Leon glanced at Terena, who seemed engrossed in her own meat sauce and appeared completely oblivious to their conversation.

It seems that Terena is determined to help her mother; this is exactly what she's been hoping for.

"I have indeed heard this rumor, but I don't know the specifics."

"The truth is just as the rumors say, I am indeed a virgin, and I had never had any experience before that."

Langley started talking, or rather, she finally found someone to confide in, and her facial expressions became more animated.

"Lyon, guess how old I am?"

"Hmm, you look very young, not like someone who has had a child, but since there's Terena involved, you should actually be around twenty-seven or twenty-eight years old?"

Lyon estimated the number based on the average childbearing age of 20 among this aristocratic family.

The aristocracy generally had good living conditions, and young people had a longer period of development, so they usually gave birth at the age of 20.

He indeed didn't know Langley's exact age, because she had almost no storyline in her previous life.

Furthermore, Terena appears in the third movie, by which time she has grown up, and Langley has already died.

There isn't much information about how she died, so Leon doesn't know much about her family background, only about the Calon family and some minor villains who were involved in persecuting her during her childhood.

"No, I'm only 20 this year."

Langley said a number that surprised Leon.

Good buddy.

Although such things were not uncommon in Leon's previous life, he was still somewhat surprised. If Langley had advanced to the fourth rank at the age of 20, then her talent was quite remarkable.

Of course, she is just an ordinary knight, so it's normal for her to advance faster than a spellcaster. Her combat attributes are not particularly outstanding, but for someone her age to reach this level is quite impressive, even if she isn't a genius like Brierita.

In other words, Langley should at least have an A+ level of potential talent? Or even higher?

Then Langley continued:

"On the day I became pregnant with Terena, I received a divine revelation in a dream."

Chapter 262 Can I entrust little Terena to you?

"A divine revelation?"

Lyon seemed thoughtful and asked:

"Is it a revelation from the goddess Astalia?"

"Yes."

Langley nodded:

"I'm not sure what the revelation was about, but I am certain that it was given by the goddess Astalia. She was radiant and bathed in infinite divine light, and her figure was otherworldly beautiful. Unfortunately, she murmured a few words to me, but I couldn't understand a single word."

Lyon fell into thought. Six years ago, Brierita had not yet become a representative of the gods, that is to say, at that time Brierita had not yet received the task of resurrecting the goddess Astalia.

But if what Langley said is true, then Therena could very well be an incarnation or reincarnation of the goddess Astalia.

However, considering that he currently has a resurrection mission, Therena's identity is more likely to be a subordinate goddess of Astalia, or a reincarnation of a friendly goddess.

Of course, there is an even greater possibility: that the goddess Astalia simply foresaw the birth of Terena, a special person who had the potential to change the world, and decided to give her a push.

Lyon knew he might be overthinking things.

The fact that Terena is destined to die in the future suggests that the possibility of her being a god is extremely low.

Even if someone is a god, they won't die from overworking their body.

However, that's not necessarily true. There's too little information online right now, so making inferences is useless. Leon decided to keep his thoughts on the matter in mind and wait until he understands more of the situation before making a judgment.

"In other words, you suddenly became pregnant with Terena because of this divine revelation. Does Vice Commander Kairon know about this?"

Lyon asked this question because, judging from the attitudes of the other members of the Terena family, they probably didn't know about it.

"They don't know."

Langley shook her head:

“I hadn’t even told Little Terena before. At the time, although I couldn’t understand what Astalia was telling me, I could sense that she meant for me to keep it a secret and not tell anyone.”

"Then why are you telling me now?"

Lyon asked curiously.

"Because I can see that you are actually a very, very rare person without faith."

Langley gave a slightly mischievous, girlish smile:

"This is a small special ability of mine, as someone who has received divine revelation. It is precisely because you and the God of Astaria have no connection of faith that my sixth sense tells me that you are the only human being who can know this."

"You told me just because I could know? Are there any other reasons why you needed to know?"

Leon keenly sensed the subtext in Langley's words.

"Because I'm dying."

Upon hearing this, both Leon and Terena turned their gazes sharply towards Langley.

Langley's face remained calm as she gently stroked Treina's head and smiled:

"And it just so happens that you and little Terena, who doesn't like to talk to outsiders, have become so close, which puts my mind at ease. Lyon, this is my only request in my life: can I entrust little Terena to you for upbringing? You should know that she is not suited to live in the family. Of course, I won't let you do this for nothing; I have prepared enough reward for this day."

Lyon was speechless.

Langley said she was going to die, and that shouldn't be a lie.

In other words, her invitation to him might have been partly due to her attraction to him.

But more likely, it's for Terena.

It seems that Terena also misinterpreted things; she thought Langley liked her and was determined to help her.

This also resolved another of Lyon's doubts.

Although the Terena he is currently in contact with is in a state of pseudo-autism, it is not too difficult to break down her defenses.

After a week of interaction, Leon's favorability rating reached over 40, which shows that her pseudo-autism is not too serious.

So why will she become so difficult to approach in the future?

Perhaps, compared to Kairon's disappearance, Langley's untimely death was a greater blow to her.

It seems that if Terena is to truly embrace the future, Langley needs to stay with her until she is fully grown up.

"Langri, tell me in detail why you died."

Lyon spoke calmly.

"I'm not sure of the cause of death, but I estimate he will die suddenly within three months."

Langley also said seriously:

"This is also some information that I deciphered from divine revelation a long time ago. At that time, before I met you, Leon, I also happened to decipher another part of divine revelation. It told me that I would come into contact with a very important person, and that I should not offend him, but try to befriend him as much as possible."

Leon understood: "This so-called key figure you've identified, is also me?"

"Yes, I'm sorry I only contacted you knowing all this."

Langley looked apologetic:

"However, Lyon, your charm has indeed exceeded my expectations. You perfectly embody my fantasy of a husband who doesn't exist, and I have indeed dreamed of you many times. Even if it weren't for Terena's matter, I would still like to see you more often."

As she spoke, a hint of shyness appeared on her face, and she lowered her head.

Leon sighed. He had just thought that Langley wasn't interested in him, but it turned out that she was.

This makes Terena seem like an afterthought.

However, when Leon glanced at Terena, he realized that although she was looking down, she was glancing at him out of the corner of her eye more often than she was looking at Langley.

This girl is hard to read.

Lyon asked, "Can you interpret the divine revelation any further?"

"Do you need to touch the monster? @What's wrong?"

"Langri, if you think that divine revelation proclaims your inevitable death, you're completely wrong. In reality, even God cannot determine everyone's fate!"

Lyon returns to his old ways and starts deceiving people again:

"In other words, you may die suddenly in three months, but as long as you take sufficient self-rescue measures, you can still live. And you may not know that I am an astrologer, an astrologer with a unique perspective on destiny. If you want to die, you have to ask for my opinion."

Langley was taken aback: "But what am I supposed to do?"

She had no doubt whatsoever that Leon was an astrologer.

"I don't have my divination tools with me right now, but I'll bring them tomorrow so I can do a divination for you."

Leon temporarily calmed Langley down.

Interestingly, Terena's feelings for Leon also increased.

The moment his mental strength broke through 20, Leon felt a loud bang in his mind, as if countless tiny shackles that had been hindering his thinking had exploded, and his mind suddenly became much clearer.

Even in that instant, many of the magical images I had previously perused gained a more profound understanding.

In particular, his recent focus on the intermediate-level magic, Calamity Fire, allowed him to take advantage of this surge in mental power to understand previously unclear points of difficulty.

The replication progress of the magical imagery in the mind also suddenly surged, from the previous 30% to 55%!

Leon understood that a mental strength of 20 was a transformation point, just like agility of 60.

Chapter 263 Iris: Don't leave after tonight's activities are over, go to my room.

After temporarily calming Langley and Terena down, Leon ended their Easter celebrations at their house and headed to Granny's mansion.

The Easter celebrations are held at 8 p.m. in Olado Square, so he still has plenty of time.

"Wow, Elizabeth, you're so cunning! You actually changed into such an elegant dress."

"Hmph, I am a noble pure-blooded elf. What does high or low status matter? Even the lowest-ranking dress will look high-ranking on me."

"Damn it, I never thought your image would suit this style of dress so well. But you're only benefiting from your race. Don't get cocky, I'm just as good!"

"Hehe, you're so small, no matter how well you're dressed, the most I can say is that you're cute."

When Leon arrived at Grani's mansion, the two women were changing clothes in the dressing room, and the sound of them arguing could be heard.

As Lyon strode into the living room, the two of them walked out one after the other.

The moment he saw it, Leon's eyes lit up.

First was Elizabeth, who wore a flowing, V-neck dress that accentuated her slender and delicate collarbones and revealed a glimpse of her fair and radiant skin. The sleeves were long enough to reach her wrists and hugged her arms, while the skirt did not trail on the ground, but rather draped lightly around her ankles.

Her figure is characterized by its exceptional slenderness. Her long, thin limbs and paper-thin waist accentuate her tall stature, and every movement exudes natural elegance.

Next up was Macchiato, who wore a tiered skirt in pure black silk fabric. The upper body was fitted, the sleeves were short and reached her shoulders, and the square neckline was edged with a circle of delicate scarlet lace.

From the waist down, the skirt flared out like a waterfall, forming a large, layered hem that successfully concealed her small stature, giving her a striking visual effect despite her Lolita-like waist. Combined with her naturally alluring appearance, a classic silver-haired, black-clad Gothic Lolita stood there, breathtakingly beautiful.

Although Machiru is not as tall as Elizabeth, her unique style is just as stunning as Elizabeth's.

"I never expected you to look so beautiful today. I guarantee you will be the most eye-catching and beautiful sight in the capital."

Lyon spoke, praising repeatedly.

Their eyes lit up immediately, and they looked radiant.
