You are all my wings!

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

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

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

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

Langley opened up, or rather, she finally found someone to confide in, and her expression became more lively.

"Leon, guess how old I am?"

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

Lyon estimated this based on the common childbearing age of 20 among nobles.

Noble families generally had good conditions, and young people had a long period of upbringing, so they usually gave birth at the age of 20.

He 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 plot information about how she died, so Leon doesn't know. She only knows about the Chiron family and some minor villains who were involved in persecuting her during her childhood.

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

Langley uttered a number that surprised Leon.

Good guy.

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, even if she is not a genius of Britta's caliber, it is still quite good.

In other words, Langley has at least 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 my dream."

Chapter 262 Can I entrust little Terena to you?

"Divine revelation?"

Lyon seemed thoughtful and asked:

"Is it a divine revelation from the goddess Astalia?"

"Yes."

Langley nodded:

"I'm not sure what the divine revelation was, 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, Britta had not yet become the agent of the gods, which meant that Britta had not yet received the mission to resurrect 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 the goddess 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 Therena, 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 Therena is destined to die in the future suggests that the possibility of her being a god is extremely low.

He's a god, after all. Even if he dies, it won't be because he overexerted his body.

However, that's not necessarily true. There are too few clues right now, so making inferences is useless. Leon decided to keep his thoughts on the matter in reserve and wait until he has learned more before making a judgment.

"In other words, you suddenly became pregnant with Terena because of this divine revelation. Does Vice Commander Chiron 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 God Astalia was telling me, I could sense that she wanted me to keep it a secret and not tell anyone.”

"Then why are you telling me now?"

Lyon asked curiously.

"Because I can tell 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 God 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 some other reasons why you absolutely had to know?"

Lyon 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've become so close to little Terena, who doesn't like talking to outsiders, which puts my mind at ease. Lyon, this is my only request in my life: can I entrust little Terena to your care? You should know that she's not suited to live in the family. Of course, I won't let you do this for nothing; I've prepared enough compensation 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 Therena.

Therena, however, seems to have misinterpreted the situation. She thought Langley liked her and was determined to help her.

This also resolved another of Lyon's doubts.

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

After a week of getting to know her, Leon had already built up a 40+ level of affection for her, which shows that her pseudo-autism wasn't too serious.

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

Perhaps, compared to Karen'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:

"These are some messages I deciphered from divine revelation a long time ago. Back then, 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."

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

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

Langley looked apologetic:

"However, Lyon, your charm has indeed exceeded my expectations. You have perfectly fulfilled my fantasy of a husband who does not exist. 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 briefly, he noticed that although she had her head down, she was glancing at him out of the corner of her eye more often than she had looked at Langley.

This girl is hard to read.

Lyon said, "Can you interpret the message of divine revelation any further?"

"It depends on luck, so what?"

“Langri, if you think that divine revelation has declared your inevitable death, you are very wrong. In fact, even God cannot control everyone’s fate.”

Lyon returned to his old ways and started deceiving people again:

"In other words, you may die suddenly in three months, but as long as you take enough self-rescue measures, you can still live. And you may not know that I am an astrologer, an astrologer who also has some insights into fate. If you want to die, you have to ask 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 to do a divination for you."

Lyon managed to keep Langley calm for the time being.

Interestingly, Terena's feelings for Leon also increased.

【主要属性：精神力21/生命力79/魔力量115/体力77/力量74/敏捷90】

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

In that instant, many of the magical images I had previously studied gained a more profound understanding.

In particular, he recently focused on the intermediate-level magic, Calamity Fire, and took advantage of this surge in mental power to figure out some previously unclear points of difficulty.

The progress of replicating the magical imagery in the mind also skyrocketed, from the previous 30% to 55%!

Leon understood. Mental strength of 20 was probably a turning point, just like agility of 60.

Chapter 263 Iris: Don't leave after tonight's event, come to my room.

After calming Langley and Terena down, Leon ended his Easter activities at their house and headed to Grani's mansion.

The Easter celebration is scheduled for 8 p.m. in Olado Square, so he still has plenty of time.

"Wow, Iris, you're so cunning! You actually changed into such a high-class dress."

"Hmph, I am a noble pure-blooded elf. What's all this talk about being high-class or not? Even the most basic dress will look high-class on me."

"Damn it, I didn't expect your image to 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 short, 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 their voices could be heard arguing.

As Leon stepped into the living room, the two men walked out one after the other.

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

First was Iris, who wore a light white matte fabric long dress with a V-neck that accentuated her slender and delicate collarbones and revealed a small patch of fair and radiant skin. The sleeves were long enough to reach her wrists and hugged her arm lines, while the skirt did not trail on the ground but clung lightly to her ankles.

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

Next was Maggie, who wore a tiered dress made of pure black silk, with a tight bodice, short sleeves reaching her shoulders, and a square neckline edged with 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 petite waist a striking visual appeal. Combined with her naturally alluring appearance, a classic silver-haired, black-clad Gothic Lolita stood there, breathtakingly beautiful.

Although Maggie is not as tall as Iris, her unique style and beauty are enough to rival Iris'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, his voice filled with praise.

The two of them immediately brightened up, their faces glowing.
