You are all my wings!

Good grief, here comes that classic question again.

However, Lyon keenly sensed the subtext of those words.

That is, she doesn't ask 'which one do you want,' but rather 'which one takes priority.'

This suggests that Maggie seems to have accepted sharing her things with Iris.

And it's not just Maggie; it's likely that Iris has also changed her mind.

She had told herself before that she absolutely could not accept Maggieru, but could barely accept Ophimasso and Britta.

But now, her current words and actions seem to indicate that she has accepted Machiru.

In terms of acceptance, it may even surpass that of Britta and Ophimasso.

If Leon hadn't been kidnapped, the two would have fought each other to the death, neither willing to back down.

But now that powerful enemies other than Ophimasso and Britta have joined the fray, tensions are rising, and the two unexpectedly find common ground.

It turns out that those palace dramas from my past life did have some basis in reality.

A harem with a larger number of members and more diverse backgrounds is actually easier to manage than one with fewer members.

Of course, the premise is that he can control it; if he can't, he will suffer a backlash.

In a flash, Leon gained a more accurate understanding of Iris and Maggie's mindset, pulled them closer, and said:

“You are one on my left and one on my right, like my left and right hands, inseparable and equal. We have been through so much hardship and overcome so much pain together, must we have to rank ourselves? In my heart, even if I fall in love with someone else later, no one can ever compare to you, understand?”

The two were not satisfied with this answer.

What do you mean by "you can fall in love with someone else"?

But upon closer reflection, it's still acceptable.

After all, Lyon had already personally acknowledged their priority over those who came later.

Machiru snorted, "Let's just let this matter rest. Anyway, I won't need to see that catwoman dark elf's face for the next three years. Instead, let's figure out how to deal with the theory of life alchemy and your problem of bringing over the three demigods."

Then she looked at Iris, signaling her to quickly state her opinion and get to the point.

Maggie wasn't imprisoned for very long, and during her imprisonment she only met Herwiz, so although she disliked the two of them, she didn't hate them that much.

But Iris went through a lot back then. First, she was whipped by Bai Shaqilai. Although she was protected by Leon and did not suffer any real harm, this made her resent Bai Shaqilai and vow to get revenge after she was promoted in the future.

Later, she was also suppressed in front of her by her adopted sister-in-law, Helvie, and Lyon flirted with her to her face, which made her angry.

Then, she saw that Leon had also gone to see Helvies because of his magic surge disorder, and she felt quite humiliated.

After a moment of silence, she spoke:

"I will work hard to advance to the point where I can fight them one-on-one! When that happens, I will defeat them head-on and avenge those grudges from the other day!"

Lyon understood what Iris meant, and now they were far enough away.

He returned to the main topic, using magic to amplify his voice:

"Just in case, let's have double insurance. For matters involving the Forest Apostles, we'll use magical telepathy. If it's something particularly important, we'll use cryptic script instead of homophones to transmit the message. Understand?"

The two nodded.

"Also, when we meet Ophimasso, remember to keep this a secret from her. According to the Forest Apostle, the Life Seal has the power of a vow, so just in case, it's best not to trigger it. As for what to say, just say that we've temporarily solved Helvie's problem. She's trapped in the divine ruins, and we shouldn't open them for two or three years. We'll tell her the truth when we've solved the problem."

Iris asked, "And what about Britta?"

Lyon said, "She is naturally not affected. She was already in the know and is not within the scope of the oath. Moreover, the Forest Apostle also asked me to persuade her not to rush to use the Holy Prayer to communicate with the gods."

Maggie nodded: "Then this life alchemy..."

“I have a clue. I will use divination to help you adjust your research direction and speed up the process. Moreover, your understanding last time was correct. This direction can undoubtedly lead to the realm of demigods or even gods.”

"I understand. I'll get back and start researching right away. But what about the lab? Theory alone isn't enough; we need to do some experiments to verify it, right? And we'll have to earn extra money to subsidize this stuff?"

"On our way back, let's hunt a few powerful Tier 6 monsters and make a hundred thousand or two hundred thousand gold coins."

Leon shrugged. A powerful sixth-tier monster, its strength comparable to half a legend, is indeed formidable.

However, he already possesses two powerful sixth-tier traits, and has also combined them with traits acquired during previous upgrades. His pure trait power is already stronger than that of a powerful sixth-tier trait.

In addition, the power of multiple perfect-level superior spells compressed together rivals that of top-tier king-level spells, and the means of attack are already in place.

Add to that two hundred or so points of magic power.

I'm already quite confident in soloing powerful Tier 6 monsters.

Of course, there are risks involved, but with the assistance of Iris and Machiru, two future super-strong individuals, who are already at the fifth rank and can rival strong fifth-rank spellcasters upon advancement, that should be more than enough.

Moreover, Lyon had a backup plan: if things didn't work out, he could find Britta, the wealthy Papacy woman, to live off.

After all, Moripert was also imprisoned, so she would definitely have to do her part.

The only pity is that the items needed to resurrect the god Astaria have now been mostly gathered, but due to the Life Seal, they cannot reveal this matter.

We must find Britta first, and then try to revive the goddess Astalia when the opportunity arises.

Iris wasn't too concerned about that; her main concern was the deception of the three demigods.

"Leon, those three demigods, are you planning to come to our elven holy land?"

“That’s right. The human demigod Castiglione is elusive. I doubt even Britta and Moripert know how to find her. Among the other races, only dragonkin and you elves can gather so many demigods at once.”

Lyon transmitted his voice:

"If we find a demigod who is too weak, then even if the Forest Apostles want to rebel, we will have no room to resist. So the key is three long-lived demigods. Only when the three are combined can we have the strength to contend with the Forest Apostles."

His actual backup plan was to frantically complete tasks and unlock new modes to improve himself over the next three years.

But no plan is foolproof, so he plans to pursue multiple fronts.

Iris exclaimed in surprise, "Is it possible for three long-lived demigods to contend with this?"

"That's right. She is a special divine species with the bloodline of your pure-blooded elf ancestor. She has a long lifespan and also possesses intelligence. Her strength is not comparable to that of two or three demigods."

Maggie suddenly realized:

"No wonder Moripert and Helvie, who are clearly top-tier epic masters on the continent, couldn't even last a few moves."

Upon hearing this, Iris suddenly punched Leon with her fist.

"Then in these three years, I also need to become stronger and stronger, I need to... I need to have sex with you every day..."

Her voice trailed off as she spoke of xx.

Leon chuckled, patted Iris's head hard, his fingers tracing her beautiful light blue hair, slipping into her long, white swan neck, causing her body to tremble slightly.

"However, my magic power is increasing, and I'm afraid it's not enough for me to do it alone. I must invite the two of you to spend the night together."

He plans to start them simultaneously to save time.

Upon hearing this, a surge of heat rose suddenly from both sides of Lyon's hands, as if steam were boiling.

Glancing to the left and right, I noticed that both Iris and Maggie had blushed.

The two people embracing each other were also experiencing a rapid rise in body temperature.

"What...what are you saying?"

Iris spoke without thinking:

What do you mean by "sincerely inviting...to come together"?

Maggie lowered her head and remained silent, glancing thoughtfully at Iris, her flushed face slowly returning to normal.

After a moment, her expression remained calm, and she said lightly:

"I think it's okay."

Upon hearing this, Iris's eyes widened, her emerald yellow pupils trembling violently:

"Magical, what are you saying! What do you mean you think it's okay?"

Maggie grinned, revealing her pink lips and canine teeth, and arrogantly looked up at Iris with her chin: "If you don't want to, then I'll just have Lyon all to myself."

"No! Impossible! If that's the case, I can do it too!"

Iris was getting anxious; how could she let Maggie Lu get ahead?

Maggie laughed and said, "Then you'll have to wait your turn after me. After all, you agreed late. These things are all about first come, first served, understand?"

As she spoke, she suddenly sprang up as Lyon ran and bit his earlobe.

"You've had Lyon all to yourself for so long, you can't be greedy, Iris."

Not to be outdone, Iris also took it in her mouth.

"The past is the past, the present is the present! Machiru, don't you dare bring this over here! This is my territory!"

Lyon, on the other hand, benefited from the conflict between the snipe and the clam, gaining both the bird and the shell.

……

In the depths of the distant lake, the algae-green light refracts beautiful glassy ripples under the sunlight.

One gaze slowly withdrew.

"Hmph, a few filthy men and women."

……

Two and a half days later.

Outside the western gate of Horshah's capital, a beautiful female warrior with light tan skin, a tall figure, and well-proportioned features with a touch of wildness suddenly appeared.

It was Camille, whom Prince Sambor mistakenly believed to have stolen the treasure.

With her epic background and the formidable strength brought by dual classes, she naturally defeated Sambor quickly.

Although Sambor's strength was inferior to hers, he was still a legendary figure who had accumulated his strength over many years.

Moreover, his legendary poems are very good at fast movement and teleportation, so although she won, Sambor did not lose much combat power and retreated. Instead, he followed her and launched repeated sneak attacks.

Half a day ago, she finally found an opportunity to severely injure Sambor. Although he still managed to escape, she figured he wouldn't bother her for the time being.

"Phew, after being delayed for several days, we've finally arrived. I wonder how they are doing."

Stepping into the capital, she activated her keen senses and quickly gathered intelligence.

'Hmm? Princess Ophimasso appears to have appeared at the palace council and announced a new adventurer management law?'

Saint Britta, the Third Virgin, recently appeared at the Vatican headquarters, frequently proclaiming miracles, seemingly vying for the position of acting pope?

'They've all shown up, which means they rescued Leon?'

Camille had a sudden thought and teleported to find Ketchum.

Anyway, Kekeqi's house is right next to Lyon, so I can ask him about the situation.

Upon arriving at the dilapidated house on Colt Street, Camille frowned and discovered that Kekeqi showed no signs of returning.

On the contrary, the house in Lyon showed more signs of activity.

She frowned and knocked on Lyon's door.

crunch.

The door opened by itself without any wind.

Camille stepped inside and found Leon writing something with his head down at the desk.

He didn't turn his head, but it was as if he already knew she would come:

“Miss Camille, you’re finally back. I’m so glad to see you still look so well.”

Camille frowned: "You're back safely, but what about Keckski? Did something happen to her?"

"Don't get excited, Miss Camille."

Lyon still didn't answer, and continued to scribble something rapidly:

"For some reason, I cannot give you specific details, but I can assure you that she is safe now."

"Was she captured by Helvie or Bessage?"

Camille's expression turned slightly cold.

Why is this man so cold?

Kekeqi called him "brother" so many times, so innocent and naive, but now he's in a precarious situation, yet he's here so carefree.
