By 10 p.m., the Easter activities were almost over.

"Leon is so slow, why isn't he back yet?"

Maggie yawned, getting a little bored while waiting.

Now only the three of them were left shopping. Without the key figure who connected them, the atmosphere quickly turned cold.

Hamra and Iris are alright, but they're not the same age, so chatting for too long can get boring.

The three of them had already eaten their way through the entire Monster Snack Street, unknowingly creating a new scene that attracted some passersby to strike up a conversation.

As a result, Hamla's mere glare and casual release of her powerful sixth-tier aura terrified a bunch of passersby.

After all, he was a powerful sixth-tier cultivator who had attempted to advance to legendary status but failed, so his strength was extraordinary.

In addition to her title as a Shining Hero, her personal poem also provides a powerful boost, allowing her to exude unparalleled aura and pressure.

Therefore, with her here, almost no passersby come to disturb her.

Just then——

"Sorry to keep you waiting. I was supposed to be back soon, but I ran into someone unexpected and we chatted a little longer, which took up a bit of time. Let me introduce you. This is my cousin, Kekeqi Belon."

Leon appeared with Kekeqi and casually introduced her to Iris and the others.

Considering that Kekeqi's identity could be easily exposed, Leon decided to use Kekeqi's real name to avoid any accidents.

Anyway, since Kekeqi wasn't born in this era, and it's unlikely that she would have any interaction with the main characters, it's not a big deal to share a name with her.

"Hello, I'm Kekeqi, Leon's sister."

After being disguised again, Kekeqi's eyes had a sharper look, and her pale white hair had a silverer texture.

Her attire consisted of a long, elegant dress worn by a noblewoman, which Leon had casually stolen and which suited her lithe figure perfectly.

Kekeqi gracefully lifted her skirt and bowed, appearing before Iris and the others.

She always seemed foolish in front of Leon, but after Leon's tutelage, she had toned down that silly and cuteness and gained more confidence, looking radiant and elegant.

After all, she is a fifth-tier expert (originally fifth-tier, but with the addition of new magical equipment, she has the strength of a sixth-tier expert) with three times the agility. It wouldn't be difficult for her to learn the demeanor and manners of a noble lady.

Of course, given the limited time, Leon only pointed out a few key points. Whether Kekeqi, who comes from an ordinary family, can show the demeanor of a noble lady in more subtle ways is a true test of her skills.

Fortunately, the cousin that Lyon referenced was just a young lady from a baron's family. Although she had learned basic aristocratic etiquette, it was quite normal for her to occasionally show some habits of a country nobleman.

"younger sister?"

Iris couldn't help but exchange a glance with Maggie.

This person did indeed look remarkably like Leon, and was exceptionally cute, with fair skin that made him endearing.

But is she really Leon's sister?

Why does the way those two walked over just now seem a little off?

Their eyes met quickly, sparking a conversation, and they exchanged opinions in an instant.

Iris: Maggie, go and test the waters.

Machiru: Hmph, I don't like this aristocratic lady style. Go ahead, humans are most afraid of pure-blooded elves like you.

Iris: Okay, you owe me one this time!

At this moment, the two unexpectedly found common ground.

Such a large amount of information can be exchanged simply through eye contact.

Iris went up to her.

"I am Iris, a member of the Lyon Adventure Team. Welcome, little sister Kekeqi."

A slight smile appeared on her lips.

Iris's expression tends to be stiff around people she doesn't know well, making her appear quite aloof.

Due to racial customs, she was quite aloof to most people.

Kekeqi could hardly believe that one day he would be so close to the future demigod-level powerhouse, the radiant light elf Iris.

Although she knew that Iris would be Leon Belon’s rather famous partner in the future, she could not rule out her admiration for such a master.

After all, in her time, Iris already had a wide reputation and was a very powerful demigod-level expert. Apart from the stain of being taken down by Leon, she was practically a perfect strong woman.

Moreover, this Elise, who was known for her absolute aloofness, actually gave me a slightly friendly smile!

Damn it, how could such a great spirit be captured by this despicable guy?

I must remain vigilant and cooperative while avoiding being misled by his sweet talk!

While remaining secretly on guard, Kekeqi quickly returned the greeting to Iris:

"Hello, it's an honor to meet you. I know your name, Hui..."

Leon coughed lightly, interrupting Kekeqi's constant revelation of her true colors:

"You don't need to be so reserved when greeting people, we all know each other very well."

“That’s Machiru, and that’s Iris’s mother, Lady Hamra. Make yourselves at home. I know another fun place. Come with me.”

The group walked together, and Iris leaned closer to Kekeqi, beginning to probe:

"Little sister Kekeqi, you were in your hometown of Lyon before, why did you suddenly come to the capital?"

Upon hearing this, Kekeqi felt a chill run down her spine!

Is she doubting me?

As expected of a future demigod, he actually noticed something amiss with my exquisite acting.

It seems that Leon, that wretched older brother, is quite good at finding teammates; he actually found such an excellent Iris right away.

But it's okay, I've already rehearsed my lines with that awful brother Leon!

He told me that when Iris or Magilu asked why I was there, I had to say that I had come to the capital secretly for an adventure and that seeing him was just a side trip.

Also, be vague, don't be too specific.

But I cannot follow my wicked brother's orders completely, lest I fall into his trap.

After all, the partnership is only temporary!

He's a womanizer, an enemy of women!

This remains unchanged; we cannot be careless!

Therefore, it's necessary to say something that's a little different from the original lines!

A series of thoughts flashed through her mind, and she was now quite certain that this was the correct way to put it:

"I came here specifically to find my brother!"

Chapter 280 I Want to Indulge!

Did you come specifically to find your brother?

This has a somewhat ambiguous meaning.

Iris and Maquill exchanged a glance and instantly shared many points of consensus.

Iris turned to look at Kekeqi again and smiled:

"Oh, what a touching sentiment! They actually traveled all the way to the capital to find Leon."

"Of course! My brother and I have such a good relationship, if I don't go to him, who else would I go to?"

"You two are that close?"

"Yes, my brother just patted my head very kindly!"

Kekeqi thought to herself that what her fake brother Leon said was just the general direction; she would have to fill in the real details herself.

For example, the gesture of patting someone's head just now can obviously increase persuasiveness.

After all, my older sister often pats my head, so this fake older brother patting my head must prove that we have a good relationship.

Sigh, I'm much older than Leon Berlón, yet I had to play his sister.

Kekeqi was filled with emotion.

Iris and Maggie exchanged another glance, a series of intense flashes of light passing through their eyes.

Iris: This is a bit dangerous! Maggie, ask us more questions!

Maggie: I won't ask! Anyway, it must be some kind of misunderstanding. As far as I know, nobles in the southern countryside don't practice incest, so there's definitely nothing unusual between Leon and this so-called cousin! Definitely!

Iris: Then why does your gaze look so strange?

Machiru: Hmph, I just can't stand you. You asked too tactfully! Show some of your pure-blooded elf spirit! Wouldn't ordinary humans be terrified and blurt out everything in front of you?

Iris: Alright, since you put it that way, I'll reluctantly continue.

Today, Iris has naturally shed her initial naivety, and especially in situations like this, her deep-seated cunning has gradually been activated.

Having just been provoked by Machiru, she felt it was time to show some backbone.

After all, I was the first person to know Leon!

All those saints, queens, and witches have to step aside!

"So, Kekeqi, what are your plans for the future?"

Iris smiled, but a barely perceptible hint of murderous intent flickered in her eyes.

This hint of killing intent was something she had slowly cultivated through the trials of those two dungeons.

Her beautiful, delicate face suddenly exuded a murderous aura, making her incredibly attractive.

This guy was stunned and secretly cheered!

What a future demigod! His charm is truly captivating!

Compared to her, my awful brother... wait, he's not so bad.

Kekeqi originally wanted to belittle Leon, but upon closer comparison, it seemed that her hateful brother's appearance and temperament had a more dazzling and mysterious charm.

The thought filled her with extreme vigilance!

We must not be careless!

Then, because she had just wasted some time thinking, she could no longer answer according to her own train of thought, and could only answer Iris with the lines she had rehearsed with Leon.

"Me? I've already rented a place next to my brother's. I just moved in today. I originally wanted to visit my brother to catch up, but the landlord said he was here to see the Easter activities, so I went out to look for him. I was really lucky, and I found him right away."

"Living next door? You came to the capital... also for adventure? A noble lady like you, are you sure you shouldn't stay at home instead of coming out on adventures?"

Iris was slightly startled and quickly asked again.

She realized that she hadn't even thought of this brilliant strategy.

If I moved right next to Lyon, wouldn't I be happy every day?

Leon doesn't need to sneak over behind his mother's back anymore?

"My strength is not bad at all; I'm already at the fourth rank!"

Kekeqi said proudly.

This was also the result of Leon's discussion with her, a compromise of fourth-tier strength.

It was already outrageous that she was at the fourth rank at such a young age (19 years old), but considering that she would need to show her strength appropriately in the future, it would be unreasonable if she were only at the third rank like Leon, and she did not have multiple professions.

In fact, having been exposed to new magic from the future, her power-up was indeed much easier than in this era.

In addition, she is indeed quite talented and is considered a main character in the spin-off series. It would be a waste not to show her strength.

"Fourth tier? I'm surprised, but considering you're Leon's sister, it doesn't seem like much. Besides, someone with your strength really shouldn't stay at home; it's boring."

Iris couldn't help but acknowledge the other person.

Of course, this is an acknowledgment of strength, but she still needs to test Kekeqi's identity.

At this point, Lyon realized that he had conveyed the basic information he wanted to communicate. Although there were some minor misunderstandings between the two sides, the overall goal could still be achieved.

That is to integrate Kekeqi into his team, making her even more inseparable from him, and only able to follow his warship to continue revealing information about the future!
