Chapter 152

Leon glanced at his boss and sighed helplessly, "Yeah, I don't have a first kiss anymore."

Time was up, woman in the trench coat was one point ahead of Leon, securing the final victory in the match.

According to the rules, the boss handed the Jade Dew Dragon Fruit to the woman in the trench coat.

Leon, who came in second, received a coupon valid for ten years.

"Okay, you're welcome to visit our shop anytime. This event has now come to a successful conclusion!"

The shop owner bowed to express his gratitude. Just then, the number of customers in the store increased, and he had no time to pay attention to Leon and the woman in the trench coat. He turned around and went to help out in the store.

Leon looked down at the coupon in his hand, then glanced at the Jade Dew Dragon Fruit in the woman in the trench coat's hand.

Damn it!

It was so close!

In her regret, Losweiser walked to the edge of the court, leaned forward slightly, rested her chin on her hand, looked up at Leon, and asked with a smile,

"Where's my championship? Where's my dragon fruit, huh? Leon?"

"... Second place is pretty good too."

Leon pursed his lips and looked up at the woman in the trench coat in front of him.

Without the Jade Dew Dragon Fruit, he'll become Losweiser's punching bag in the future.

No.

We must fight for it again.

"Madam, may we have this dragon fruit? My wife is pregnant."

The woman in the trench coat tilted her head slightly, glanced at Losweiser in the audience, then turned back to Laon. "Didn't you just say you already had twin daughters? How come... this is?"

"Second child, we are pregnant with our second child."

"Oh? It's not common for Dragon Race to want a second child," the woman in the trench coat said casually.

Leon chuckled, "We... we just wanted to do our part to help increase the Dragon Race population, right, honey?"

Losweiser rolled her eyes at him, but she played along, saying, "Well, we both really like kids, so we had a second one."

"Hmm. Besides, ma'am, you're only participating in the competition for fun, right? So dragon fruit probably won't be of much use to you."

Leon said, "We can change the prize. If you feel it's a loss, we can make up the difference."

"I only participated in the competition for fun; the Jade Dew Dragon Fruit really doesn't mean anything to me."

The woman in the trench coat said, "But I still want to ask you and your wife, is it really true that you are pregnant with your second child?"

Leon paused, puzzled as to why a complete stranger would be so concerned about having a second child.

He looked at Losweiser, Losweiser shook her head almost imperceptibly, indicating that she didn't know.

After thinking for a moment, Leon honestly replied, "Yes, we really are having a second child."

How long are you pregnant?

"Forehead..."

"Do you even need to ask that?" Leon scratched his forehead. "Two months."

"Oh, so it's clear you still care about your wife. She's only been married for two months, and you're already trying so hard to nourish her body with Jade Dew Dragon Fruit."

It seems that beneath the cool and mysterious exterior of the woman in the trench coat lies a gossipy heart.

But there was no other way; in order to get the dragon fruit from her, Leon had no choice but to go along with her.

"Well... after all, I love my wife very much."

How much do you love her?

"... I absolutely love it."

Wow~~ How romantic~~ I'm so envious.

Taking advantage of the woman in the trench coat's good mood, Leon rubbed his hands together and said with a smile, "Well then, ma'am, look, how about this dragon fruit—"

"Since you love your wife so much, I'll give you the dragon fruit," the woman in the trench coat said generously.

Leon reached out and took it, as if it were a priceless treasure.

No matter how you go around in circles, the championship is still his!

Void Champion is a champion, but a champion that is obtained through deception is not a champion.

That makes sense.

Finally, Leon didn't forget to be polite, "Could you please tell us your name?"

"My name... Hmph."

The woman in the trench coat raised her hands.

He took off his hat with one hand and his sunglasses with the other.

Her red hair cascaded loosely from under her hat, like a blooming, beautiful rose.

Behind the sunglasses, her fiery red eyes were particularly striking, as bright as rubies.

She dropped her disguise and, to the utter astonishment of Leon and Losweiser, uttered her name in a normal voice.

"Ischa Melkwy. What did you just say, brother-in-law? You... you really are having a second child, right?"

Look at this update, it's frequent and stable;

Look at these monthly passes, the more the better.

Inside a beverage shop in Sky City, Ischa savored a rich and aromatic coffee.

The steam rising from the cup slightly dampened the red-haired beauty's long eyelashes.

She parted her red lips slightly, took a sip of the liquid in the glass, and then left a faint lipstick mark on the rim of the glass.

She slowly put down her coffee cup, crossed her long legs, and placed her black trench coat and top hat to one side. Sunlight streamed in through the window, shining on her fiery red hair like a warm flame.

The phrase "peaceful and serene" perfectly describes this scene.

However, less than two meters away from Ischa, the passage of time was neither peaceful nor pleasant.

The ill-fated couple sat side by side, their hands on their knees, like two elementary school students who had just finished a fight and were being called to the teacher's office to be scolded.

They sat upright, backs straight, not daring to even breathe loudly.

The Jade Dew Dragon Fruit, which he had just searched for with great difficulty, was now placed on the table in front of Leon.

But now he wishes all the Jade Dew Dragon Fruit in the world would become extinct!

Those wretched Dragon Race! From now on, they should all be born from cocoons!

Losweiser's mindset wasn't much better.

That damned Dragon Slayer! You were so close to her on stage just now, didn't you realize she was my sister?!

Under the table, the couple's legs accidentally bumped together.

Immediately, they glanced at each other sideways, simultaneously mistaking it for a signal that the other was shifting the blame onto them.

So he bumped her leg, and she bumped his knee, secretly competing with him.

Finally, Ischa coughed twice, interrupting them.

"Little Los."

"Yes... Sister."

The Red Dragon Queen rested her chin on her hand, looking at her younger sister with a smile, "You've kept such a great figure."

Losweiser lowered her eyes and nodded, brushing a strand of silver hair behind her ear with her fingertips. "No way, sis, you have a great figure too—"

"I'm two months pregnant and my figure hasn't changed at all, that's amazing!"

Upon hearing this, it was as if an electric current had passed through Losweiser's entire body, leaving her feeling numb and embarrassed, so much so that her tail quietly curled up.

She shrank back, picked up the coffee cup with both hands, and tried to get away with it by pretending to drink coffee.

Leon nudged her leg again under the table.

Losweiser glanced at him furtively.

Leon gave her a look that said, "If you know you're going to be interrogated by your older sister, think carefully before you answer."

Losweiser: It's easy for you to talk when you're not the one suffering. Go try it yourself.

Leon: Just try it.

Losweiser made a face at him, sticking her tongue out.

"Leon."

"Yes!"

"When did you find out you were pregnant with your second child?" Ischa asked slowly.

Having learned from the foolish dragon's example, Leon decided to think twice before answering.

When Ischa asked "when did you find out?", she definitely didn't really want to know how long it took them to find out she was pregnant with their second child.

Following this line of thought, it's not hard to see that what she really wanted to say was, "After discovering this, she didn't tell me, her older sister, right away."

Now that Leon has figured out Ischa's true purpose, he can choose an answer that won't get him tortured.

After thinking for a moment, the clever Dragon Slayer replied,

"Ah, we just had a check-up a few days ago and confirmed that I'm two months pregnant. We came to Sky City today to buy some supplements and had another check-up. I'll write to you when we get back, sister."

A perfect excuse!

"Red Dragon King, let's see how you find a flaw. "Leon said confidently.

Ischa raised an eyebrow slightly and chuckled, "Oh, is that so? That's not bad."

Leon's answer was indeed very tactful, perfectly avoiding the minefield that Ischa would use to interrogate them.

Seeing that Ischa stopped asking questions, Leon secretly breathed a sigh of relief and then looked at Losweiser beside him.

Leon: See? I'm a professional at dealing with dragons!

Losweiser: Ha, don't get too excited.

"I thought you were deliberately keeping it from me," Ischa said.

"How could that be, sister? We were just discussing whether to tell you at your house or write to you," Leon said, sounding quite serious, as if they really intended to tell Ischa about the pregnancy.

Actually, when they first discussed it, the two of them agreed not to tell Ischa about it for the time being.

Dragon Race rarely have twins, and even fewer have two.

If my sister finds out, the entire Melkwy family will never have peace for the next ten years.

Leon even suspected that Ischa might use some forbidden magic to throw Melkwy's ancestors out of their graves, resurrect them one by one, and then inform them:

Little Los and her husband have brought honor to our family! They've had three kids in just three years of marriage, and who knows what the future holds for the next few hundred years?

Although the couple knew that secrets couldn't be kept forever, they knew that the older sister would find out about the second pregnancy sooner or later.

But what they didn't expect was that this day would come so quickly, and in such a... bizarre way.

Oh well, if she knows, she knows. Leon just needs to keep Ischa calm and prevent her from getting carried away.

So far, his tactics and rhetoric seem to be working quite well.

But Leon clearly overlooked one thing:

The reason Ischa went to great lengths to disguise herself and participate in that fun competition wasn't just to ask how long it takes to conceive a second child.

"So it seems you've indeed been keeping your promise to me," Ischa said.

"A promise?" Losweiser blinked. "What promise?"

"Huh? Didn't Leon tell you?"

Ischa smiled and turned her gaze to Leon.
