Chapter 171
It was a case of marital discord, and the aunt benefited from it.
"Little Los, brother-in-law, why aren't you saying anything? Don't you like talking?"
"No... Sister, whatever makes you happy..." Losweiser said.
"Okay, sure."
Ischa cradled the baby in her arms, gently rocking her back and forth. "Little darling, how about Auntie takes you to the Red Dragon Clan? Auntie won't get married or have children, and in a hundred years you'll be the next Red Dragon Queen!"
"Big sister, hold on, you filthy bastard!"
Leon quickly interrupted, worried that if he didn't say something, his and Losweiser's precious little daughter might be lured away by Ischa's few words.
Ischa rolled her eyes at him and scoffed, "Tch, it was just a joke, look how scared you are."
Ischa placed the baby back beside Losweiser and immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
She straightened up, crossed her arms, and sized up her sister and brother-in-law.
Losweiser lay in bed, Leon sat beside her pillow, and the couple seemed strangely at peace.
Ischa's gaze darted back and forth between Losweiser and Leon, finally settling on Leon's face.
Leon looked left and right, then scratched his forehead. "What's wrong, sis?"
"I never knew you were such a hidden master, brother-in-law."
After spending some time with my darling niece, it's time to get down to business.
"Um... Sis, what do you mean?" Leon sensed something was wrong and decided to play dumb for now.
"Hey, brother-in-law, you've already killed Constantine, no need to be so low-key."
Ischa glanced at her sister again, "Little Los, didn't you tell me before that Leon came from a disbanded, minor Dragon race, and that he was frail and sickly, and fell into a coma less than a month after his marriage?"
Losweiser avoided eye contact, a slightly embarrassed smile on her face. "Y-yes. Leon's health... hasn't been very good, has it? Hmm? Right? Say something."
She gently nudged Leon's buttocks with her elbow under the covers.
Leon nodded repeatedly, "Yes, sister, I haven't been feeling well, and I've been taking medicine lately."
"Take medicine? What kind of medicine?"
"That... the medicine is... it is..." Leon's brain raced, running through the names of various Dragon Race medicines in his mind.
But Ischa's red eyes were extremely intimidating, and in a moment of desperation, Leon blurted out...
"Dragon Kidney Vitality!"
Ischa gasped, then shook her head slightly. "An ordinary male dragon from minor Dragon race couldn't possibly kill a dragon king of Constantine's caliber even if he consumed all the Dragon Kidney Vitality in the world. Besides, Little Los is pregnant and can't do anything. Why would you need to consume kidney tonics?"
They pressed forward relentlessly, with reason and evidence at their disposal.
Losweiser gripped the blanket tightly with both hands, completely covering her face.
When faced with your sister's interrogation, running away may be shameful, but it's definitely useful!
Everything is now in your hands, my husband!
Ischa looked at Leon with a slight smile and asked leisurely, "Tell me, brother-in-law, who exactly are you...?"
Noa and Mu En, who had already retreated to the sidelines to watch the show, exclaimed, "Wonderful, absolutely wonderful! Aunt Ischa is still delivering!"
The climax of Constantine's recent chapters, coupled with the massive influx of monthly votes, has completely exceeded my expectations; it's almost frightening just to look at it.
Thank you all so much for liking the book "Evil Dragon" so much. There will be a big update this month, so please be patient. If I say there will be, then there definitely will be (the ultimate credibility of an author who has consistently updated more than 470,000 words in three months without stopping!). I hope you will continue to support me.
Meanwhile, to thank everyone for their enthusiasm, we will be giving away red envelopes in the Pineapple Circle at 8 PM tonight (December 4th). Everyone is welcome to participate, so please be sure to come on time. I will also notify everyone in the reader group in advance so that you don't miss it.
Leon's eight-core brain was working at lightning speed, weaving various explanations in his mind.
His CPU was practically smoking, but he still couldn't come up with a perfect explanation for "a weak male dragon who married into the Silver Dragon household killed the Crimson Flame Dragon King Constantine".
Leon gripped his trouser leg tightly, his palms sweating nervously.
To be honest, he wasn't this nervous when he first went to the battlefield, so in some ways, the eldest sister is a more terrifying presence than Constantine.
The secret of the fake family he and Losweiser formed must never be known to a third person.
If anyone knew about his identity, his past, or his complicated relationship with Losweiser, it would be a fatal blow to this 'Dragon Race' family.
Leon will not be any less lenient with Ischa just because she is Losweiser's sister.
Because she and Losweiser are sisters, if Losweather were to find out that her sister had married a human, started a family, and had three daughters, Leon couldn't guarantee that Ischa, a pureblood Dragon race, would be able to accept it.
He didn't have the resources to support this gamble.
If you win the bet, then everyone is naturally happy.
But what will happen to the daughters if they lose the bet?
How will they view their Daddy? How will they accept the fact that they are not pureblood Dragon race? Will their future be spent amidst doubt and contempt?
These are all unpredictable events, and someone as cautious as Leon would never make any risky, all-or-nothing decisions.
"What, brother-in-law, is this a difficult question to answer?"
Ischa smiled, but her eyes held a hint of wariness and scrutiny. "It was just a simple self-introduction."
It's no wonder that Ischa was suspicious, after all, it had been three years, and her understanding of her brother-in-law was limited to her sister's side of the story.
As for his past and experiences, Ischa knew nothing about them.
She didn't suspect that Leon had ulterior motives towards her sister; their affection for each other was obvious to all.
Every time the couple looks at each other, their eyes are so full of affection and tenderness, it's almost sickeningly sweet.
Ischa didn't know if they were aware of this, but she was certainly fed up with their public displays of affection.
The reason she keeps pressing Leon for an explanation is to put her mind at ease.
At most, it's possible that the brother-in-law concealed his true race to avoid being hunted down by enemies (which is quite common among Dragon Race), or for some other reason, that he quietly married Losweiser.
Regardless of the reason, as Losweiser's older sister, she should know something about it.
Leon sat on the edge of the bed, feeling extremely uncomfortable, every pore on his body seemed to be steaming with tension and embarrassment.
He glanced furtively at Losweiser, who was lying beside him.
She held the blanket tightly with both hands, pulling it up to her nose, leaving only her delicate and beautiful silver eyes visible.
His eyes blinked at Leon, his left eye described as "innocent" and his right eye as "clueless".
Bull Demon, you're still trying to be cute here!
The couple began exchanging knowing glances, just like before.
Leon: Where are my teammates? Where are my teammates? Help me out! Help me out!
Losweiser: OMO
Leon: Senior Los, why are you just watching?
Losweiser: There's nothing I can do. I've never been able to win against my sister. Good luck to you!
Leon: Okay, since that's the case, I might as well go all the way.
Losweiser:?... Big Fool Ang, what are you doing!
Leon: Slaying one dragon is one thing, slaying two is another. Sorry about my sister today, I'll send her off now—
Losweiser: Stop fooling around, you idiot! You have five seconds to come up with a reason. If you go over the time limit, my sister will assume you have designs on my Silver Dragon Clan.
Leon: She's right to admit it. Three years ago, I did indeed have designs on your Silver Dragon Clan...
Losweiser:...
She pulled the blanket over herself again, covering her face.
"Brother-in-law, my patience is limited—"
"Actually!" Leon sat up abruptly, puffing out his chest.
Ischa crossed her arms, raising her beautiful eyebrows, "Actually?"
"Actually... I've had a dream since I was a child." Leon's tone was passionate, his face radiating sincerity.
Ischa was taken aback. "No, no, brother-in-law, I don't want to know your dreams. I meant—"
"I dream of meeting a special dragon when I grow up."
Upon hearing this, Losweiser quietly peeked out from under the covers and looked at Leon curiously.
I'm curious about what kind of stories he can come up with.
Ischa's pose of holding her chest up changed to one hand touching her chin and the other hand on her waist.
Just how many ruthless schemes does her brother-in-law have in his head?
"We will meet in special places and get to know each other in special ways."
"We don't plan for the future in detail; we let everything take its natural course and wait for all sorts of unexpected surprises in our peaceful lives."
"I long for a wonderful married life with her, undisturbed by anyone."
"To realize this dream, I traveled throughout the entire Dragon Race, traversing countless mountains and rivers."
"Just when I was in despair and trapped in darkness, I met her."
Lost in his rambling, Leon lowered his head to look at Losweiser, his gaze filled with deep affection.
"My destiny, my soul fire, my eternal love, Losweiser."
"It was you who redeemed me from the darkness; it was you who let me feel the warmth of home."
"I swear, I will protect you for the rest of my life."
"If anyone dares to try to harm you, I will personally send them to hell. Even if the opponent is Constantine, who is as powerful as a god, no exceptions will be made."
Meanwhile, the Queen's inner monologue: Even though I've already given birth to my little daughter, why do I still feel nauseous...?
The couple looked at each other.
Leon's gaze was deep and infatuated, his expression ambiguous.
The Queen was extremely disgusted, but had no choice but to comply.
Snap—Snap—Snap—Tumor
Ischa slowly clapped her hands, "So touching, so loving, what a fairytale love story destined for each other."
Leon secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Surprisingly, this impromptu rambling actually worked on Ischa, likely thanks to Leon's ten-month prenatal education plan.
He practiced poetry recitation for a long time so that his beloved daughter could properly absorb the essence of human culture!
Ah, in this world, having many skills is never a bad thing!
However, before Leon could fully relax, he saw Ischa suddenly drop her feigned emotion and say coldly, "Four..."
"But you still haven't answered my question, brother-in-law. I don't want to know how you fell in love with my sister; I want to know your background."
Leon's eyes darted around, and after carefully choosing his words, he replied, "Sister, actually, my answer was already in the story I just told. To protect Losweiser, to fulfill my promise, I desperately tried to become stronger, desperately pursuing power. Only I know the hardships I endured along the way."
He sighed, patted Losweiser's hand, and continued heavily, "But all the suffering was worth it. At least I really saved my wife and daughter today. Don't you agree, sister?"
Ischa clicked her tongue softly.
My brother-in-law rambled on and on, but it seemed like he didn't say anything at all... (group)
Should I continue to press the question?
Would it be impolite to ask further questions?
"Sister, Leon is truly devoted to this family. He won't hide anything from me. I know him very well."
Losweiser also stepped in at the opportune moment, saying, "I know your concerns, but I assure you, Leon absolutely loves this family."
Ischa sighed inwardly.
"Okay, although I still don't understand how you killed Constantine, judging from how well you two work together, I might have been overthinking it."
Ischa looked at Leon, "But at least you're genuinely keeping your promise."
