The favorability rating isn't high either.

No, favorability is relative. Apart from Langley, she probably has zero favorability or even negative favorability towards everyone else.

With a 36% favorability rating, one would stand out from the crowd.

So, how did she realize she was being unfaithful?

Bah! How could I call myself a womanizer?

She must have misunderstood that I was a womanizer.

Could it be that he actually discovered through subtle clues that he had been intimate with Iris before he came?

So, how can we talk to Terena to help her resolve this emotion?

“Miss Terena, it seems I misjudged you. I thought your mind was truly unique in the world, but judging from your words, I am probably wrong.”

Lyon shook his head and sighed.

Chapter 250 So this is how it works? Can mine too?

"What does this have to do with my mind?"

Terena still did not look up.

"Since you are the smartest mind in the world, how could you come to the conclusion that being a womanizer and investing are mutually exclusive?"

“I just think your morals might not be that reliable, so I think it would be inappropriate to entrust myself to you for investment.”

"So, what aspects of my morality do you find unreliable?"

"He was involved with multiple young women, which is something my mother hated the most."

Wow, I didn't expect Terena to actually notice my interaction with Iris and Machiru.

This innate intelligence is truly terrifying.

She's already this strong at only 6 years old; what will she be like when she grows up?

Lyon was speechless. How come all these female leads were so incredibly perceptive?

It seems that Terena realized that the reason she was late was because of another woman, and that her worry about it caused her some disappointment.

But for Ang, this is actually a good thing.

This shows that Terena already cares about herself a lot.

Thinking about this, he had an idea and said:

"So that's how it is. Your mother hated these things, so you hate them too?"

"Yes."

"But your mother hates her suitors for behaving like this, right? I don't need to pursue her. Now she's asking me to teach you magic. I saw that you have some talent, so I agreed to train you and invest in you, right?"

"Seems to be."

Terena fell into deep thought.

When dealing with her personality, it's better to be more rational than emotional.

What she had just begun to feel was a strange emotion, an emotion that she, who was usually devoid of emotional awareness, was experiencing spontaneously.

Lyon believes that this is not an immediate result of his own actions, but rather stems from Langley's attitude towards life and the influence of Langley's daily words and deeds on him.

I just happened to evoke a similar emotional experience in her.

Essentially, this emotion is positive and could potentially inspire Terena to develop even more feelings.

But for Lyon, this wasn't so pleasant, because this emotion, when it evolved, became a harmful form of jealousy.

Therefore, appropriate correction is needed.

Her apparent lack of emotional perception doesn't necessarily mean she truly lacks the ability to perceive emotions; rather, ordinary emotions are like ripples caused by a drop of water, unable to shake her vast and profound intellect.

She can only remember a feeling when certain emotions are extreme and profound enough.

"So, as an investor who has been so kind to you, isn't it a bit much for you to demand things of me from the perspective of a suitor?"

Lyon patiently guided him.

"The pursuer's perspective?"

Terena was startled; she realized the source of her unhappiness.

Yes, those men who came to her door with ulterior motives were disliked by her mother because they were too frivolous.

And I also dislike this type of person.

However, Leon is a skilled magician whose advice and methods are thought-provoking, and his only goal for himself is to become the strongest in the world.

He didn't make any other requests; he just kept giving.

Does someone like him really need to throw a tantrum?

No, why do I have a temper with him in the first place?

Thinking this through, Terena nodded, a rational glint in her eyes:

“I understand now. I was just influenced by my mother’s attitude. In fact, I shouldn’t have commented on your private life. I’m sorry, Leon. I shouldn’t have wasted the improvement plan you set for me over such a small matter. I should have taken every dish of food seriously.”

Wow, terrifying! Leon was also taken aback by the astonishing rationality emanating from Terena's eyes. Just how strong was this girl's self-awareness?

Although he felt there were some unsettling aspects, since Lyon had already spoken, he could only observe Terena's development over time.

After this interlude ended, Terena carefully finished eating the monster meat sauce.

[Character Therina's affection level +2%, current affection level 38%]

This increase is much lower than the last one, but considering that it can rise just by eating, it's still good news.

That's the fun of raising kids—you can gain their affection just by feeding them a little something.

Reasoning with her only shapes her values, while feeding her easily increases her favorability. This shows that even the rational Terena can be swayed by physical urges.

"Since I have some time, I'll teach you some tips on controlling your mental energy."

Lyon coughed lightly and began to explain.

Terena's face turned serious.

“I ask you, Miss Terenas, what subtle clues did you notice about me that led you to the conclusion that ‘I am involved with multiple young women’?”

Before that, Leon decided to find out exactly what level of abnormal mental ability Terena was at during his teaching, so that he could be better prepared next time and avoid having his problems exposed again.

"It's the smell. Different people have different smells, and the smell on you is like you've drunk someone else's saliva, and your face also has some residue on it."

Terena said this with a slight frown.

As she described it, her expression became noticeably colder.

Well, things have definitely gotten a bit more intense lately.

Iris is the same; she looks more shy than Maggie, but when the passion is strong, she is obviously bolder and her actions become more unrestrained.

If this happens too often, you'll eventually lose control.

If it weren't for Hamra, Lyon would probably have already done the unspeakable thing.

Lyon remained unfazed and replied:

"I see. You are not experienced enough and may not understand this. This is a long-lost method of spiritual cultivation from ancient times."

Terena blinked, trying to read the deception in the micro-expression on Leon's face.

However, her opponent was the seasoned con artist Leon, so she only saw sincerity.

"I see. So ancient cultivation methods were so complicated that they even required saliva. Do you think mine can be used?"

She nodded and asked.

"You don't have magic power yet; you need to reach a certain level before you can."

Leon cleared his throat and changed the subject, saying:

"I can only teach you this secret technique when your body has grown to a certain strength, because your body is currently absorbing too much nourishment from your brain. If you use this technique, you will soon die from severe physical depletion. So, you can no longer do things like the argument we did today. Even if you do, you can't abuse your body, understand?"

Seeing that Leon was speaking seriously, Terena nodded in agreement:

"I understand, especially your food. I will never waste a single piece again."

"Very good, now let's get back to the main topic. How long do you need to think about identifying odor characteristics?"

"If you're familiar with it, it only takes a moment; if you're not, it takes about 3 seconds."

"Very good. So, when you process thoughts, do they last more than 3 seconds but less than 5 seconds?"

"It takes 5 seconds to turn a page of an intermediate-level magic book."

"What about a page from the higher-level spellbook?"

"About 1 minutes."

Lyon realized that this guy's browsing speed was almost the same as his own.

Judging from the time frame, her mental ability is not much stronger than his own, since he has also unlocked his mental power, which is 5 points higher than hers.

But what sets her apart is probably her unique way of thinking, which gives her greater processing efficiency and allows her to easily remember things like the characteristics of a scent.

This kind of thinking is what particularly drains Terena's body.

"I understand your situation. Starting today, you are temporarily prohibited from reading mid-to-high-level magic books. If you want to read them, you must wait until I think you are ready. Do you understand?"

Terena pouted, feeling a sense of being deprived of the fun of being forbidden from looking at superior-level magic books.

"Can it be done?"

"Good~"

Chapter 251 Orpheus: Are you happy? The marriage is settled.

Although I don't understand why my favorability with Terena increased after I asked her for a favor, I figured it must be a good thing.

This guy is indeed quite 'mysterious' to Leon, and there are many things to think about when getting along with him.

As a result, his efficiency in absorbing the spiritual information from the sharing mode seems to have improved over the past two days.

The time has come to the sixth day, the day before Easter.

KO, KO.

"It's not even dawn yet, who could it be?"

Lyon opened the door with suspicion.

"Didn't expect it to be me, did you, Lyon?"

Accompanied by a fragrant breeze, a tall, beautiful woman strode in.

The beautiful woman wore a white, form-fitting riding outfit that accentuated her curvaceous figure. Her gentle face was adorned with a cheerful smile, and her pink lips were especially vibrant today. Her long legs moved with a sharp, swift stride, as if she were exceptionally happy.

It was Ophimasso.

Her clothes were clearly washed and were brand new, looking as clean as new.

But judging from the slight sweat on Ophimaso's body and the faint scent of light moss unique to the dungeon, she had clearly just left the dungeon and rushed over.

Goodness, that's really something.

Lyon glanced outside the door briefly; there were no attendants, no maids, and none of the sixth-tier experts were there.

In other words, she came alone again this time?

"Why has Your Highness suddenly come to my humble abode? And so early at night?"

Lyon was puzzled. What prompted Ophimaso to rush over immediately after leaving the dungeon?

And she even changed into new clothes before setting off?
