Luciano explained the reason for Angelica and Olivia's quarrel, and after hearing it, Leon felt even more guilty.
The root cause of the conflict between the two lies in the deep divide between commoners and nobles.
It was only at this moment that Leon realized it, but it wasn't too late!
"I'm sorry, I found out too late."
Leon fought back his tears, then looked up at Olivia and Angelica.
Both women lowered their heads again after seeing Leon's gaze, especially Olivia, who had always been labeled as a commoner, and tears streamed down her face.
"Livia, I..."
"Don't come any closer! I...I..."
Olivia refused in horror, but quickly realized the hurt her words had caused Leon and immediately burst into tears.
Seeing Leon start to sob, he picked Olivia up in his arms without any hesitation.
"Lyon, I...I..."
Olivia sobbed as she tried to explain what she had just said, but Leon stopped her.
"It's alright, Livia. It's all my fault for finding out too late, otherwise you and Ange wouldn't be like this."
Leon gently placed Olivia on the bed, nestled next to Angelica, and then sat down himself, facing the two of them.
Angelica felt Olivia approach her side and her hand seemed to want to move, but she ultimately withdrew it with trembling hands.
Seeing this, Leon forcefully grabbed the two men's hands and put them together.
“Livia, I know you care a lot about my and Ange’s identities. But I want to tell you that I don’t care about titles or status. If you find my being a baron confusing, then I will lower the title!”
"No! I...I don't want you to do this. Leon..."
Olivia sobbed as she looked up at Leon, her tearful eyes making Leon feel suffocated.
"Livia, I'm sorry."
Angelica's sobbing voice could be heard as crystal tears streamed down her face, soaking her chest.
"No! An, Anjie! No..."
Olivia kept talking, wanting to comfort her but not knowing what to say.
Seeing the two of them, Leon immediately put his arm around them and listened quietly to their sobs.
Having zero experience, Leon didn't know how to comfort the two women, let alone how to explain or offer guidance.
All he could do was express his truest thoughts.
"Livia, Ange. My affection for you isn't because you're pretty or have great figures. It's because I've felt your charm while spending time with you. It might sound a bit harsh, but if possible, I hope you won't leave me, okay?"
Leon spoke nervously, his entire body tense and motionless after he finished speaking.
"Waaaaah~ Leon, you bad guy!"
Olivia slapped Leon, venting her emotions, and Angelica did the same.
For a time, Lyon was experiencing both pain and pleasure.
Time passed, and the red glow of dawn pierced through the window and entered the ward, blurring the figures of the three together.
"Leon, thank you. And Livia, I want to apologize for keeping it from you before. I'm sorry, Livia."
After a long silence, Angelica finally spoke, breaking free from Leon's embrace.
Olivia stepped out of Leon's arms as Angelica apologized, reaching out to wipe away the tears on Angelica's face.
"No, Ange. It's not like that, it's all my fault. I should have..."
"No! Livia, what just happened should have been..."
Olivia and Angelica began to persuade each other, and finally they smiled at each other.
Boom!
A faint white light emanated from Olivia's hand, and Angelica's red, tear-filled eyes immediately returned to normal.
"Livia, you can actually use healing magic. That's amazing."
"Oh, no, Ange. I trained for a long time back then too."
Olivia spoke sincerely, without the slightest hint of hypocrisy.
In the Kingdom of Holfalt, very few people possess healing magic, and everyone who does is highly respected and holds a very high status.
It is even said that only girls who possess healing magic can serve as saints in the churches of the Kingdom of Holfalt.
Lyon didn't care about any of that, because the base was conducting research on nanotechnology, Dr. Zhao Hailun's Cradle of Life technology, and similar research on soldier serum.
In short, Leon didn't care about any of that; there was only one thing he cared about right now.
That is,
"So, Livia and Ange, would you two be willing to be with me?"
Lyon asked the question somewhat shyly to the two people who were holding each other's hands tightly.
From the perspective of people from the previous generation in China, these were completely scumbag remarks!
"Leon~" x2
Olivia and Angelica looked at Leon, then lowered their clasped hands.
"Ok?"
Bang! ×2
Two pristine white pillows struck Leon, covering his eyes.
[Not a bath towel, bad review!]
Volume 2 School Life: Chapter 52 Myrenu: Almost Exposed
Royal Capital Port.
Lyon was dressed in the kingdom's black knight's uniform, with a black sword hanging at his waist, followed by Daniel and Raymond carrying his luggage.
The three of them stared directly at Barutona, which was quietly moored in the harbor.
"Leon, how much did you spend on this upgrade?"
"Cost price: 500,000 gold coins! Final price: 700,000 gold coins! Modifications cost approximately 160,000 gold coins!"
Lyon's eyes shone brightly, brimming with confidence.
"Leon, you're amazing!"
"Rich man!"
Faced with the two men's simple and unpretentious praise, Leon simply smiled and began to introduce the upgraded Barutona.
It is 770 meters long, 246 meters wide, and 230 meters high. It has 18 main guns, 42 secondary guns, and hundreds of various defensive machine guns. The warship is equipped with drones that can reach speeds of Mach 1 and can be equipped with various target-locking missiles. It is also equipped with a reinforced brigade of robots.
The main cannon is powerful enough to destroy a floating island the size of a baron's territory (approximately 50,000 square kilometers) in a single salvo.
"I understand. You're still keeping the mecha in the warehouse, right?"
Raymond turned around halfway and asked Leon, who had a vain look on his face.
"Hey! Wait a minute! Shouldn't you two at least show some admiration, or express shock?"
Leon was stunned by the two's nonchalant demeanor. He had been preparing for this show-off scene for a long time, and had even specially worn a knight's uniform!
"What good is it for us to be envious? That's a whopping 700,000 gold coins! Can we even afford it?"
Daniel spoke with great emotion, his eyes filled with utter condemnation of Lyon's actions.
"Ahem. The mechs are in the warehouse, go see for yourselves."
Leon coughed awkwardly and then turned his gaze to Angelica and the other woman, as well as that damned woman Kara!
"Leon~"
Olivia, dressed in a white dress, spotted Leon and waved from afar. Standing beside her was Angelica, also dressed in a white dress. From a distance, the two looked like sisters, drawing attention from onlookers.
The dresses they were wearing were bought for them by Lyon; there were many similar dresses.
"Livia, Angela. I thought you two were going to sleep a little longer."
Leon ran forward, took the luggage from their hands, and led them into the warship.
"Leon, this lost artifact is amazing. It can operate without a single person. The kingdom's warships of similar size require thousands of people to get them moving."
Inside the room, Angelica was shocked after Leon finished introducing Bartona.
"Angie, Leon would be heartbroken if we hired someone. After all, he really loves money. Hehe."
Olivia looked at Leon with innocent eyes, a mischievous smile playing on her lips.
"That's really mischievous."
Leon rubbed Olivia's cheek, looking at her excessive behavior, before walking out of the room with satisfaction.
"If you have any questions, just tell Lucaccion. I'll go down and wait for that guy named Kara. If you're tired, you two can get some rest."
"I know!" ×2
Olivia and Angelica agreed in unison, their faces flushing as they exchanged a glance.
Last night, after Lyon comforted the two women, they talked all night in the hospital room, especially about how to deal with Lyon in the future.
It was precisely because the two spent the entire night in the ward that Camille and the others found nothing when they went to the dormitory that evening.
At the port, Lyon looked at Greg and Brad with a puzzled expression.
"You two were invited too?"
"What, do you think you can be so arrogant just because you beat me once by luck?"
Faced with Greg's question, Leon honestly nodded in agreement.
"Damn it! Do you want to fight?"
Seeing that Leon didn't take him seriously, Greg put down his spear, rolled up his sleeves, and prepared to charge forward, but was stopped by Brad beside him.
"Enough, Greg!"
After Brad stopped Greg, he explained why the two of them had come.
"Kara is my ex-fiancée's adopted child. She came to me for help, so I decided to lend a hand. Anyway, there was a reward offered, since sky pirates have bounties on their heads. So, in order to help Marie, I accepted the mission to hunt down the sky pirates."
"Is that so? I understand. We can talk about the bounty later. Let's get on the spaceship now. I think Greg is really eager to fight me."
Lyon gave Greg a kind smile, his eyes filled with a kindness that Daniel and Raymond would never forget.
"Hmph! Bartofarth, you'd better prepare to be defeated by me."
Impulsive Greg agreed to Leon's words without question. Seeing this, Leon contacted Daniel through his earpiece to prepare for the fight.
"Your Excellency, I apologize for not informing you beforehand."
Kara spoke apologetically, her eyes glistening with tears, making her look pitiful.
However, Leon was not moved by Kara's appearance at all. He simply nodded slightly and led the three of them onto the warship, heading towards Baron Wayne's territory.
Inside the control room, Leon smiled as he watched Carla holding a short-distance communication phone on the screen.
"Lucasion, record all the evidence. Also, turn on the communication jamming equipment. This guy is definitely in contact with those air pirates. We need to be prepared for an attack and plan for the worst."
"Yes, Master. The warships at the base are ready to go into battle at any time, and attacks on the designated targets can be completed within an hour."
After browsing the latest progress of the base, Lyon headed to the training room located inside the warship.
At this moment, Greg was exercising with a dumbbell, Brad was on the treadmill, and Daniel and Raymond were on the other side, having just finished their mecha experience.
"You two have already tried it, right? Tell me how it felt?"
"It's absolutely worth every penny! With the current performance of the mech, I can now face small-scale air pirates all by myself."
Daniel spoke excitedly, his face full of anticipation, clearly very satisfied with the mech equipped with drones and missiles.
"That's right, Leon. But the ammunition needed for mechs in combat will probably be a lot. We'll have to make money again."
Compared to the excited Daniel, Raymond seemed somewhat sad.
