Shut up, I don't want to have children with you anymore.

Leon wondered if that was her response.

Leon glanced at his daughter reluctantly, straightened up, packed up the things that might be needed later, and then walked towards the balcony.

Rossweisse had transformed into a giant dragon, hovering outside the balcony.

Leon easily climbed over the railing and jumped onto her back.

"Will Noa and Moon think I'm a bad father?" Leon asked in a low voice.

Rossweisse said without hesitation, "No, you are the best father in the world."

And the best...husband in the world.

But isn't it a little late to say this now?

The silver dragon flapped its wings and disappeared into the night.

The curtains in the bedroom were gently blown by the air currents from the vibrating dragon wings.

The baby on the bed clenched his fists tightly and twisted his little body nervously.

Suddenly, in the silent room, there was the sound of door lock clicking.

The door to the entrance slowly opened, and a small figure walked into the room quietly, calling out "Mom and Dad."

But the only answer she got was her little sister's whimpering.

Mom and Dad are not here.

She walked to the bed, hummed a nursery rhyme, and after coaxing her little sister to sleep again, she walked to the balcony.

The balcony window was open and there were traces of footsteps on the railing, indicating that someone had left here not long ago.

Noah slowly raised her head and looked towards the deep night sky.

"Mom and Dad...what on earth happened?"

Good news, Brother Lai advanced to the audition for the cute god.

Better news, there will be an extra chapter tonight! This is to repay everyone's support for Leon, and the author doesn't want the plot to get stuck here.

The draw will be held at 4pm, and the PK competition will start in the early morning. I hope everyone will continue to support Brother Lai. We have shown great momentum in the auditions, and we must continue to do so. Go, go, go! I

Chapter 175: 177 Aurora (3K words plus more) I

After a few hours of flying, Rossweisse and Leon arrived at the border between human and dragon territory.

She took Leon to the mountain stream where Tiger was hiding.

Since it is not possible to confirm whether Tiger is currently in the Empire or has left, it is always a good idea to stop by and take a look when passing by.

Leon stood on the steep and dangerous cliff, looking at the waterfall and the bottomless ravine, and couldn't help but sigh, "Is my master really hiding here?"

Rossweisse nodded. "Do you still think your master is just an ordinary farmer?"

It is impossible for ordinary farmers to find such a secret hiding place and live here for a period of time.

How many secrets did the old man, the master, have yet to tell him?

After the meeting, Leon must ask for clarification.

Rossweisse took Leon and slowly flew into the dangerous mountain stream, and found the waterfall they had seen last time. She flapped her wings, and the wind pressure shook the water flow, forming a gap in the waterfall.

The two passed through the gap and found a hidden cave inside.

Leon walked in, and Rossweisse followed behind him.

The wooden furniture she saw the last time she came here was still there, but...

Rossweisse stood beside the table and wiped it gently with her hand. There was a thick layer of dust, which meant that no one had lived here for a long time.

Leon certainly noticed this. He went deeper into the cave and found nothing. "My master and his wife are not here."

After a pause, he looked inside again with some reluctance, and then added, "The donkey is not here either."

Rossweisse still remembered that Shirley had said that before Tiger left the empire and came to this isolated place, he sold his farm and livestock, but took the only donkey with him.

This shows that this four-legged long-eared animal, one of the few in the biological world that can hurt Leon, is indeed very important to this family.

But now, the master and his wife are gone, and the donkey is gone too...

"Then there are only two possibilities."

Rossweisse said, "Either your master has solved the problem in the empire, taken your master's wife and the donkey away, and is waiting for you to return home; or... the problem has not been solved, and it is far more troublesome than he expected. He does not have the energy to take care of your master's wife, so he temporarily transferred her to another place."

Leon nodded, hesitated for a moment, and said, "Let's continue on our journey."

Seeing Leon anxious but forcing himself to remain calm, Rossweisse opened her mouth but hesitated to speak.

Finally, she hummed softly, spread her wings, and took Leon away.

Along the way, the couple didn't say anything.

She could feel Leon's urgent and suppressed mood at this moment;

Leon also noticed that she was suppressing some emotions.

Two people who usually can't stop bickering when they meet now don't know what to talk about.

There was only a rumbling whistling sound in his ears, disturbing Leon's mind.

After entering deep into human territory, Rossweisse activated invisibility magic, slowed down, and became cautious.

Naturally, humans cannot enter and exit territory at will. The closer you get, the more dangerous it is.

When Leon first woke up, Rossweisse took him back to the woods near the empire.

After the torture, she took advantage of her lingering excitement and threatened to have sex with Leon here once a month to severely humiliate his dignity and beliefs.

However, that was the only time they came here, and Rossweisse couldn't really take such a big risk just to torture Leon.

Unexpectedly, going deep into the human kingdom again had the exact opposite purpose to last time.

From "keeping him by my side forever" to "sending him back to his hometown personally"... the difference between the two is a bit too big.

And the hole in the Queen's heart...is a little too big.

After flying for a few more hours, they finally arrived at the Empire.

Rossweisse landed in the same forest as last time. From here, she could see the entire empire in the distance.

Leon stood on a high place, gazing at his homeland in the distance.

The brilliant lights reflected in his dark pupils, and for a moment, he was overwhelmed with mixed feelings.

The hometown is still the same hometown, but is the 'empire' still the same 'empire'?

The last time I came here, it was Leon's belief, a bottom line worth protecting with his life;

But at this moment, it was like a sleeping beast. No one knew whether it would wag its tail obediently at Leon or open its bloody mouth and roar towards him when approaching it.

Leon secretly clenched his fists, and his breathing became heavy uncontrollably.

He was seldom afraid of tangible things.

Whether it was a dragon, a dangerous species, or something else, Leon had never been afraid when facing them;

But now, looking at the empire that he once swore to protect with his life, an inexplicable fear grew in his heart.

The master said that visible ghosts are not scary. What is scarier than ghosts is the invisible and intangible human heart.

Leon's pupils trembled slightly, and the biting coldness hit him like a flood, making it difficult for him to breathe.

He subconsciously took a half step back. It was an invisible fear that he could hardly bear.

However, at this moment, I felt a warm feeling on my back.

Leon was stunned for a moment, then slowly lowered his head and looked at the slender arms around his waist.

The softness and warmth behind him instantly dispelled all the fear and coldness in front of Leon the moment he was embraced.

"Rossweisse..."

He wanted to turn around, but the person behind him stopped him, "Don't move, don't turn around."

Leon could feel Rossweisse gently pressing her forehead against his back.

She didn't hold him too tightly, not sure if it was because she didn't dare... or, she couldn't.

Leon looked at the pair of jade hands wrapped around his lower abdomen. The backs of the hands were delicate, the fingers were slender, and the nails shone with a light pink and tender luster.

He slowly raised his hand, hesitated for a moment, and gently placed it on the back of Rossweisse's slightly cool hand.

A gust of evening breeze rushed into the forest, blowing the surrounding leaves, making a rustling sound.

The chirping of cicadas came from the darkness, fireflies lingered around the two of them, and moonlight escaped from the gaps between the leaves, falling on the long silver hair.

In front of Leon is an empire full of dangers and a master waiting for him;

Behind Leon is his former 'enemy' and the person he spent every day with.

After a long silence, Leon spoke in a low voice.

"Once I've dealt with this trouble, then—"

"I won't wait."

Rossweisse didn't even wait for him to finish and interrupted him like a sulky little schoolgirl.

She has been enduring for so many days, and even on the way here, she has been restraining herself.

Now, the countdown to her separation from this guy can only be measured in minutes.

She also wants to be willful for once.

Even if it's just for a few minutes.

"Who are you to me... Why should I wait for you? I won't wait, I don't want it."

Leon pursed his lips and his shoulders slumped weakly, “I’m sorry.”

She hugged him tighter, her voice choking with sobs, "Don't let anything happen...Leon, please don't let anything happen..."

Sure enough, being willful is not suitable for her.

Leon bit his lower lip and held Rossweisse's wrist tightly, letting her feel his attitude.

"I promise, Rossweisse, I won't let anything happen to you or me."

She said nothing more, but continued to hug him from behind.

After a long while, Leon asked softly, "How do you explain it to your daughters?"

"I'll just go and talk to them."

Rossweisse adjusted her mood and said, "If you can't solve the empire's troubles with your master in a short time, then every three months, if you are still alive, go to the mountain stream where your master was hiding at that time. It is the border between the territories of humans and dragons, which is relatively safe. I will explain it to my daughters and bring them to see you."

This didn't seem like a spur of the moment decision on her part. Given her personality, she must have decided to do this a long time ago, Leon thought.

"Did you hear that?" She gently nudged Leon's back with her forehead.

"Yeah, I heard it."

"You have to go every three months. You are not allowed to miss it. Remember that."

'If you are still alive, go there', 'You must go there every three months, you must go'.

This expression was straightforward enough for Rossweisse:

She wanted Leon alive.

"Remember, I will be on time for the appointment."

Rossweisse closed her eyes and took a long breath.

"Finally, let's give our daughter a name."

"Shall I come and get it?"

Rossweisse nodded, and then quickly added, "No stars, no wild men."

After he finished speaking, the couple smiled at the same time.

She slowly turned her head and pressed her cheek against Leon's back, hugging him tighter. The two of them swayed slightly left and right with the evening breeze.

Leon thought for a moment and said,
