The sexiest thing about her is her red lips, which are not too thick but extremely full.

This young woman was different from all the women Leo had ever met before.

There is a sense of time about her.

"Madam Joanna, why are you in the army too?" Karen didn't expect that her stepmother would be there too. She smoothed her hair awkwardly, and kicked the velvet silk that Leo had torn a few days ago under the bed with her heels.

"Yes, when the war comes, of course I have to accompany Taylor to the battlefield. After all, we met on the battlefield."

Joanna chuckled, her eyes moving between Kallen and Leo, pretending to be surprised: "This must be Leo, I often hear Taylor mention you, he thinks highly of you."

"Thank you, Your Excellency the Duke, for your support." Leo bowed. Before he knew Joanna's intention, there was nothing wrong with being respectful.

After all, this beautiful young woman might become his stepmother in the future...

"Haha, no need to be polite." Joanna waved her hand, covered her mouth and chuckled a few times, then showed a lonely expression again: "Hey, you're back too, Taylor is here too, it would be nice if Logan was here too, we haven't been together for a long time."

Ever since Kallen went to practice in the Mechanicum, the Telsk family in the north had not gathered together for a long time. Joanna's words also evoked Kallen's memories.

Recalling her brother who always hid behind her mother when she was young and was a little shy, she couldn't help but sigh: "Brother Logan, he..."

"He's still alive for now. The defeat was just the Duke's mission, and he was just following orders. Otherwise, how could the Night Devil deal with him? Okay, let's not talk about this..." Joanna took over the conversation and talked to Karen about the embarrassing things in the past.

Most of these things happened during Kallen's childhood. Leo listened to them disjointedly, but his thoughts were elsewhere.

He still hadn't guessed what the Duke's purpose was.

After a long detour, he had tied the Order Sect and the entire northern nobles to the battlefield. But his Black Cavalry had not marched. Even now, they were only stationed fifty miles outside Winterhold and had not taken any action.

What does he want?

Are they going to take this opportunity to wipe out the Order Sect in one fell swoop?

Or is it to test the loyalty of the nobles?

The heart of an emperor is always sinister and unpredictable, and Leo also unconsciously thinks about dark things.

"Okay, then I won't disturb you and Leo." After about half an hour, the tea in Mrs. Joanna's cup was gone. She took out a small sandalwood box from her bosom and said, "This is the amulet I brought back from the imperial capital in my early years. I have always carried it with me. Now I give it to you."

Kallen opened the box, and an amulet inlaid with rubies and engraved with a large number of arcane runes came into view.

Those gems and runes are obviously valuable.

"Madam Joanna, I can't accept this. It's too expensive." Karen declined quickly.

Unexpectedly, Joanna grabbed her hand and stuffed the amulet in. "This is a battlefield, it's extremely dangerous, Karen, you should keep it with you just in case."

"Although Logan is still alive, he is fighting against the Night Demon after all, so his life is not completely out of danger."

"Taylor's health is also poor... If something happens to you on the battlefield, we can't afford the turmoil in the North."

"Madam Joanna..." After some refusal, Karen finally accepted the amulet.

But Leo looked in the direction where Joanna left and sneered.

The Eye of True Sight in his pupils was sparkling.

Chapter 102: If I eat Lady Joanna, I can become Karen's stepmother!

"You can't take this amulet with you."

"What's wrong, Leo?" Kallen blinked. "Is there any problem? I've seen this amulet. Lady Joanna does always carry it with her. It is said to be her lucky charm on the battlefield."

“It’s a big problem.”

Leo took the amulet from Kallen, and words appeared in his eyes.

[The Winning Wings of Order (Legend)]

[The Wings of Victory borrowed from the gods by the Pope of the Church of Order through personal prayer. Anyone who wears this amulet will gain absolute luck on the battlefield...]

[But all gifts from fate have already been marked with a price. The price of absolute luck is beyond the imagination of ordinary people. The effect of this amulet has now disappeared. The person who wears it will be plagued by bad luck until death...]

[When the person who wears it dies, the amulet will become a lucky item again. ]

"My eyes can see the power contained in something." Leo shook his head and pointed at his eyes: "For example, I can see that you are proficient in air guns, mechanical research... um, yoga--"

"Okay, stop talking." Kallen blushed and put the amulet in Leo's hand, mumbling, "So, this thing will hurt me?"

"Yes, in this situation, if you wear this thing, you will really die without knowing how."

"But why did Lady Joanna do this?" "It's simple. It's the same thing that is most common in aristocratic families. The struggle for inheritance rights."

Leo patiently explained to Miss Shikoti who had just come over, even though he had only said these words once to Karen.

Inside the tent, Miss Slime was listening patiently.

There was clear stupidity in her eyes. She tilted her head and kept asking questions, barely able to keep up with Leo's thoughts.

The Duke is old, and although he can still fight in the battlefield, judging from his frequent coughs and his frequent need for naps, his physical condition is not as good as before, and he probably doesn't have many years left.

Therefore, the biggest problem is who will inherit the title of the North.

Especially in the context of Lord Logan losing the Battle of Winterhold.

Yes, this defeat was instigated by the Duke, but... the nobles and common people in the North don't know about it.

In their eyes, Logan not only lost, but also abandoned the defenders and civilians of Winterhold and fled on his own. This was no longer a question of strength, he had simply abandoned the honor of the nobility.

Such a person is not worthy of being the new King of the North.

This matter is easy to resolve. Either Marquis Logan can achieve great results in the next war and wash away the shame, or Duke Telsk will personally come forward to endorse him and tell the world that all this was his plan.

But it is obvious that if Duke Telsk had the possibility to do so before, then after Kallen appeared, this possibility has become very small.

Admitting that this defeat was instigated by the Duke himself is tantamount to telling everyone in the North that they are pawns that can be discarded at any time.

Whether it is the common people, nobles, soldiers... or even the church, everyone will feel insecure, and Tersk's rule in the north will be in big trouble.

"I can understand this matter, and Joanna must have understood it too." Leo looked at the two women gathered in the tent: "She knows very well that if things are allowed to continue to develop. Regardless of whether the Duke's goal is achieved in the end, the Duke's heir may become Karen."

"But... I never thought about inheriting the title." Kallen shook her head and stroked her red hair irritably: "I... never thought about this since I was a child. The title should belong to my brother."

"Hey, it doesn't matter what you think. What matters is where you are." Leo sighed.

Yes, throughout history, both in China and abroad, the most ruthless family is the imperial family.

For the throne, for the unity, which generation did not fight to the bitter end?

Is there no one among them who dislikes power?

From the moment Kallen returned to Telsk Territory, she had been caught in the storm.

No matter what her personal wishes were, the old duke would consider whether she or Logan was a more suitable heir. This was something Lady Joanna could not accept.

This lady on horseback is an ambitious woman. For so many years, she has been following the Duke in battles across the country. Isn't it just to help her son get to that position?

Kallen was nothing less than a thorn in her side and a thorn in her heart.

“Why… is this the case…” Kallen became even more annoyed. She propped her hands on the bed and looked up at the top of the tent: “Leo, why don’t you come back to the Mechanicus with me? Father is here anyway, and we have nothing to do with this war.”

"Even if you want to leave now, I'm afraid you can't." Leo sat down next to her, glanced at Shikoti, thought for a while, and still didn't put his arm around Kallen's shoulders: "From the perspective of her giving you this amulet, there will probably be countless assassinations on the way back to the Mechanicus, and we may not be able to return to the Mechanicus. Moreover, even if we can go back, when Logan becomes the new Duke, Joanna will not let you live for the sake of safety."

"So what are we going to do, Leo? Tell our father?"

Did the Duke really not know about this?

Leo frowned. According to the rumors in the North and what he had seen with his own eyes, this Lord of the North was definitely a man of extreme intelligence.

How could such a person not be able to see clearly Joanna's little movements?

He couldn't figure out what his plan would bring to Logan and what it would bring to Kallen.

But he didn't stop it. What does this mean?

Could it be that... he is raising a Gu?

The more Leo thought about it, the more plausible it seemed.

Although Karen said that his father was an open-minded, gentle and kind father, but that was the Duke of Telsk more than ten years ago, not the current one.

Throughout history, there have been many emperors whose temperaments changed drastically in their old age.

"Huh..." Leo shook his head: "Karen, no matter what, my first priority is to keep you alive and live happily. So, I won't let you live a life of wandering and uncertainty."

"Leo..." Kallen was deeply moved.

But Shikoti's little face had already turned red.

Ahhh! The Master has never said anything like this to me!

It was obviously me who came first!

"Shikoti..."

"Ah? What's wrong, Master?"

"How many extraordinary beings do you need to eat before you can create the next clone?"

"Ah? If they are dead, then there will be at least hundreds of them. But if they are alive, then only three fourth-level extraordinary people, or one fifth-level one will be enough. What's wrong, master, why do you suddenly need my clone?" Miss Slime was puzzled.

"It's simple. Since we have to fight, let's fight thoroughly." Leo narrowed his eyes slightly: "Shikoti, after you can create a clone, we will find a chance to eat Madam Joanna."

"Eat Lady Joanna?" Karen's face turned pale when she heard Leo and Shikoti discussing such a horrifying thing in front of her.

These things were a little too cruel for her.

"Okay, Karen, I understand." Leo gently rubbed her hair: "Let me do these things, you just need to do what you should do."

The Princess of the North grew up in a greenhouse. She is simple by nature and a bit saintly. It is better not to let her get involved in such things.

"Well, but, Leo, I also want to do something... I don't want to be a burden to you."

"How can you be a burden? Besides, Karen has things that are suitable for her to do, right?"

"For example?"

"For example, mechanical equipment. To be honest, Shikoti and I both lack powerful weapons. If you can help me make some equipment, our actions will be much easier."

"Okay, I'm good at this! Don't worry, leave the equipment to me!"

Hearing that Leo was not just trying to please her, Kallen's eyes curved and she smiled from the bottom of her heart.

She didn't want to be a vase, otherwise, she wouldn't have gone to the Mechanicus. She took Miss Slime back to the tent.

Shikoti helped Leo take off his robe, rubbed his back twice with his forehead, and turned into the man with silver hair and red eyes.

"Shikoti, um--" Leo turned his head.

"Let's talk later!" Miss Slime stood on tiptoe, put her arms around Leo's neck, and knocked his teeth open with her tongue.

"Well, um..."

There's really nothing you can do about this jealous guy.

Leo closed his eyes and entangled with her clever and slippery little tongue.

The long and deep kiss ended quickly.

Shikoti licked the crystal at the corner of her mouth and showed a charming smile: "Hehehe, that idiot princess didn't kiss the master today, I win!"

Yes, yes, you win.

Leo was speechless and sat down on the bed casually.

"Hehe, Master, you are so bad now, I like it so much..." Shikoti knelt between Leo's legs consciously and licked his tongue.

"No, let's talk about business first!" Leo quickly clamped his legs together and changed his sitting position.

Since it got a new body, this little beaker has become more and more hungry, which is quite tormenting...

"Okay, okay, Master, are we really going to eat that bad woman Joanna?"

"Well, of course. Why, you don't want to?"

"Hey, I definitely would!"

Shikoti put her hands on her hips and joked. Although Joanna and Karen were not related by blood, she was still her stepmother.

If I eat her and transform into her, then rounding it off, wouldn't Shikoti be Kallen's mother?

Miss Slime thought happily, as if she had already seen the phantom of herself riding on Kallen.

Leo naturally didn't know that this guy had such thoughts. If he knew...

Well, how should I put it...
