Chapter 155

They even felt it was unnecessary.

What did the prisoners of war say goodnight to the Queen?

Being able to sleep together is already an unprecedented miracle, so don't act like a real married couple.

But ever since that night when Noa Muen checked on their room in the middle of the night, the couple had developed an unspoken understanding of saying goodnight to each other.

That night, they defied the odds and secretly kissed. The feeling of being lost in passion was subtle, and it also awakened their inner addiction.

The words "goodnight" are simple, but they can effectively soothe the couple's craving.

If I don't say goodnight, I always feel like something's missing from the day.

So, just say it, no third person will know anyway.

Besides, saying goodnight doesn't mean anything.

Does saying goodnight mean you like each other?

When young Leon, he used to say goodnight to his master's donkey every day. How come the donkey never turned into a beautiful little donkey girl and had a forbidden love affair with Leon that transcended species?

Regaining his wandering thoughts, Leon slowly closed his eyes and quietly waited for the Dragon Queen to fall asleep.

The room fell silent, and after a while, Leon felt the time was right.

He kept his head still, resting against the pillow, while his eyes glanced at the wall clock.

At 2:15 a. m., Her Your Majesty the Queen should already be fast asleep, right?

Leon prepares to act.

He pursed his lips, opened his mouth, and was about to tentatively ask Losweiser who wasn't asleep.

But before he could speak, he heard Losweiser's voice from beside him.

Are you asleep, Leon?

"N-nothing..." Leon quickly feigned a dazed tone.

"Oh."

Ten minutes later. (Leave)

"Are you asleep, Leon?" Lin

"No."

"Oh."

Another ten minutes later.

"Are you asleep, Leon?"

"Speak your mind."⑧

"Nothing, just asking." Dad

Ten minutes later. Hiss.

"You sleep—"

"No."

"Oh."

Losweiser glanced at the wall clock; it was almost 2:30 a. m.

Why isn't this jerk asleep yet? Hurry up! I've had this question saved up for ages!

Durian Ersan (Part 4) ba Ba IV Meanwhile, Leon's inner monologue: What's wrong with the Dragon Queen? Did she drink too much coffee? Can't sleep?

Wrong.

Leon's brain was working at lightning speed.

At this time normally, Losweiser would already be asleep.

And even if she wasn't asleep, there was no need to keep asking Leon if he was asleep. After getting Leon's answer, she didn't say anything more.

Does this mean... Losweiser really hopes that Leon is asleep now, so that she can do some "bad things"?

Leon became alert, planning to pretend to be asleep when Losweiser asked again later.

Let's see what she's really up to.

After a while, Losweiser's voice came again, "Leon, Leon, are you asleep?"

Leon kept his eyes closed and did not answer.

"Oh ho~ I'm asleep."

The blankets rustled as the beauty beside her slowly sat up, her silver eyes sparkling in the moonlight.

"Then I... won't be polite~"

Leon:?

Dragon Queen, what are you doing!

I'm not feeling well, so there will be only one update today. Please remember to wear a mask when you go out.

Leon lay flat on his back, his whole body tense, his hands pressed tightly against his thighs.

The Dragon Mark didn't react, which means that Losweiser probably wasn't planning to give him a "dream surprise" while he was asleep.

So what exactly does this Dragon Queen want to do?

Leon couldn't open his eyes, so he could only roughly tell what Losweiser was doing by the sounds.

All that could be heard was the soft rustling of the pajamas against the soft blankets, and the bed beneath her slightly sank.

The next moment, a familiar and pleasant, delicate fragrance wafted into Leon's nose.

Silver strands of hair fell down, gently tickling his cheek.

So close... but the Dragon Mark hasn't lit up yet... tsk, I don't understand.

Let's continue to observe for now.

"Leon".

The Queen's voice rang in my ears, "Tell me, were you just going through the motions with your promise to my sister?"

Why are you suddenly asking this question?

And why would this Dragon Queen think that if she asks me now, I will definitely answer?

Leon's mind was racing when suddenly a memory flooded back.

That was a while back when Leon was having a good time with the Dragon Queen bunny girl photos, Losweiser secretly went to Leon's room in the dead of night in order to find out where the photos were hidden.

She asked Leon a question first, but Leon didn't respond.

Immediately afterwards, she ordered Leon to take Leon to find the photos.

As for the outcome that night, those who know, know; the Dragon Queen's plan backfired as expected.

But afterwards Leon forgot to ask Losweiser why she did it.

He guessed that he must have been unintentionally Beguiling technique by Losweiser or by some other trick to achieve an effect similar to being able to speak freely and without reservation after falling asleep.

So it seems that Losweiser secretly used this trick on herself before going to bed tonight?

So he waited until 2:30 a. m., just to ask questions that Leon would never have answered in his sober state.

Hmph, naive Dragon Queen. Luckily, I, the Dragon Slayer, am a cut above the rest. How could such a petty trick possibly fool me?

Okay, since you want to play, I'll play with you too.

"This isn't just a perfunctory answer; it's the truth," Leon replied quietly.

Losweiser was stunned, somewhat incredulous. "You said you would take care of me, protect me to the death, and... was that the truth?"

"Yes, it's the truth. I will definitely protect you, even if it costs me my life." Taking advantage of the special circumstances, Leon began to make up nonsense.

Under the moonlight, her silver eyes trembled violently as she knelt beside Leon, hardly believing what he was saying.

Tiger said that if he asked Leon a question at 2:30 a. m., and Leon answered, it would definitely be what he really felt.

In other words, does Leon really... care about himself...?

Losweiser gripped her wrists, palms against her chest, and could clearly feel her heart pounding faster and faster.

Every pore on her body seemed to radiate heat, and she felt flushed with shyness as she hid under her warm pajamas.

"But we are enemies. How can you have such thoughts about an enemy without going against your own conscience?" Losweiser asked again.

Leon silently considered his words, and after carefully choosing his phrase, he spoke.

"In my heart, you are no longer an enemy. You are my wife, my beloved, and the person I am willing to protect for a lifetime."

Oh my god, this is so cheesy!

As soon as Leon finished saying that, he couldn't help but pick at his toes under the covers.

Normally, he wouldn't say these things to Losweiser even if a knife were held to his throat.

However, now that he's Beguiling technique to be under a spell, he can easily turn the tables and speak his mind.

Even though it's just random talk, what if he manages to pull off some unexpected results... wouldn't that be a win?

At this moment, in Losweiser's view, what Leon said was exactly what he really thought.

After hearing this, Losweiser was completely dumbfounded.

She was filled with mixed feelings, her mind was blank, and she had no idea what to ask or say next.

It's better not to know about things like this... It's better not to know about things like this.

If she didn't know, she could still argue and outwit Leon like before, trying all sorts of ways to torment each other.

But... but now that I know his true thoughts, how am I supposed to face him in the future!

Let her pretend to be Leon's husband and wife, maintain the family, and act like they are loving and affectionate in front of their daughter and outsiders. That's perfectly fine.

But if this charade were to turn into something real, then... then... then how would she know how to do that!

Never underestimate the level of fear a woman who hasn't been in love for over two hundred years might have about relationships.

When the time comes, she'll probably stick her tail out without even realizing it if Leon tries to hold her hand.

The deathly silence that lasted for more than ten seconds made Leon unable to resist secretly opening his eyes a crack to look at Losweiser.

As expected, the Dragon Queen sat there blankly, her expression quite complicated.

Fear, panic, shyness... and all sorts of indescribable feelings.

Oh ho ho~

Your Majesty the Queen must be sweating profusely?

Are you blushing and shy, Your Majesty the Queen?

Your Majesty the Queen about to drop a little pearl?

Do you need Teacher Leon to teach you how to understand your nemesis's psychology?

In his moment of triumph, he heard Losweiser ask again,

"So, when did your feelings for me... um... start to change?"

Like a young girl experiencing her first love, she keeps asking her boyfriend when he noticed her, when he fell in love with her, and when he decided to pursue her.

To be honest, Losweiser's past romantic experiences were a blank slate, so she was full of curiosity and longing for this kind of thing.

It was late at night, and in her eyes, Leon was still asleep.

So... she can now completely shed the Queen facade and let out the side of her that longs for affection.

"From... a long time ago," Leon said, feigning a dazed tone.

"How long ago is 'a long time ago'? Like that time we went on our date in Sky City?"
