Chapter 176

"Oh, how much did your Mom drink? She hasn't recovered yet and should rest more."

"Ugh... Oh dear~" Liu

"Your two older sisters are joining in the fun over there too. Dad's always been so good to you, staying here with you. From now on, you should side with Dad more, understand?" Lin

"Eek~" Er

The two people each spoke their own mind. 2.

The baby couldn't understand adult speech, and Leon couldn't understand baby talk either, but that didn't dampen Leon's enthusiasm for chatting with his little daughter.

After chatting for a while, the baby yawned, and his interaction with Leon decreased significantly.

I'm sleepy.

Leon stood up and carried the baby back to Losweiser's bedroom.

After she fell asleep, Leon left and returned to sit down on the steps at the Holy Temple entrance.

The bonfire burned in the courtyard; the banquet wasn't over yet. It seemed the Dragon Queen was definitely going to drink too much tonight.

Although a maid would take her home if she drank too much, as the Queen's 'husband,' I should wait here for a while.

This might make him and Losweiser appear more "loving" in front of others, and make their family seem more "warm." (South)

If she could change her style of dress to make this grand performance more realistic, how could Leon lag behind?

It's just a superficial job anyway, we won't lose anything.

Leon was lost in thought.

After an unknown amount of time, faint footsteps approached.

Leon looked up and followed the sound.

It's Losweiser.

She was a little drunk and was holding two cans of beer in her hand.

The Queen's steps were slightly unsteady, but she was not completely unable to walk.

Leon kept a close eye on her steps, afraid that the foolish dragon might trip over a step or a stone.

Only when she stood firmly in front of him did Leon shift his gaze from her feet to her face.

A blush graced her delicate and beautiful face, her silver eyes were half-open, and her ears were also red.

A blissful smile played on her lips, though it was unclear what she was enjoying.

Leon sat on the steps of the Holy Temple's back door, his gaze level with hers.

This scene reminded Leon of the attack on the Silver Dragon Sanctuary three years ago, when an insider betrayed him and he was imprisoned in a dungeon by the Silver Dragon Clan.

There, he met Losweiser for the first time.

She had also come to see him after leaving the celebration banquet, and she was just as drunk.

If she hadn't been drunk at that time, and had been a little more sober, she probably wouldn't have fallen for Leon's Blood Seduction Temptation.

"Alas, fate is cruel—oh no, it's cruel to the dragon," Leon sighed inwardly.

"Here you go."

She handed Leon a can of beer, interrupting his thoughts.

The liquor sloshed around in the bottle, making a muffled gurgling sound.

Leon shook his head. "I don't drink."

"Then I'll drink it."

Leon knew that Losweiser had a slight alcohol addiction.

However... it can't really be called an addiction.

As Queen, she faces immense pressure, and when she has no other way to relieve it, she can only numb herself with a little alcohol.

She didn't touch a drop of alcohol during her ten months of pregnancy, which must have been incredibly frustrating.

She opened the wine jar, then walked to the steps next to Leon and sat down beside him.

A faint smell of alcohol wafted over, not unpleasant at all.

She has a very high taste in alcohol, and even with this kind of beer, she carefully selects it. So even if she smells of alcohol on her, it's mostly the aroma of the beer.

The silver-haired beauty took a sip and then placed the wine jug beside her.

Her sitting posture was different from Leon's.

Leon was sitting on the steps, with his feet on the two steps below him, a very typical straight-man sitting posture.

Losweiser supported herself with her hands, looked up slightly at the night sky, and stretched her long legs straight across several steps.

The couple were very close, their shoulders brushing against each other intentionally or unintentionally.

The evening breeze swept through the Holy Temple, gently ruffling their hair.

The wind carried the chirping of cicadas, and the night sky overhead was as beautiful as an unfolded painting.

I think—

The Queen suddenly spoke, her expression extremely serious, "The world is just a giant eggplant."

Leon glanced at her speechlessly, "... How much did you drink?"

"If the world were an eggplant, what would you do?" She seemed quite eager to continue the conversation about the topic she had raised.

Leon sighed and played along, "Then I'll scatter some diced carrots on the ground and make a dish of eggplant and carrot stew."

"Interesting! Could you really be a genius?!"

"Hehe... Thank you for the compliment, Your Queen."

When Losweiser heard the word "Queen," her smile visibly froze.

She awkwardly withdrew her long legs, rested her arms on her knees, propped her chin up with her hands, pouted, and muttered, "Being Queen is no fun at all."

"Hmm? If it's not fun, why are you taking it so seriously? If you don't find it fun, give me the throne, and I'll be the Queen of the silver dragons for you. How about that—"

"The throne!"

The Dragon Queen's sudden outburst startled Leon.

He clutched his chest, forcing down his wildly beating heart. "What happened to the throne?"

"The throne is just a cage."

She's like a neurotic little girl, sometimes passionate and enthusiastic, sometimes suddenly melancholic and dejected.

Losweiser rested her chin on her hands, her silver eyes staring blankly at the ground below the steps.

"The moment you sit in that seat, your life is no longer yours."

"... Losweiser?"

"But I will stay in this cage and do my job well! Who told me I am the best Queen in the world~ Leon, tell me, am I the best Queen?" She gently bumped Leon's shoulder, her previously forlorn face now full of praise.

Leon smiled. "Yes, you are the best Queen."

"Yay!"

Got it, before she got drunk she was Noa, after she got drunk she was Mu En.

He said it himself: how could he and Losweiser have such a lively and adorable child as Mu En?

It turns out that you have to wait until you drink the wine to unlock all of the Dragon Queen's attribute panels.

"The best Queen, paired with the best captive, perfect!"

"Is it really necessary to use the word 'prisoner'?"

"What, aren't you my prisoner?"

Leon didn't want to argue with a drunken Dragon Queen. "Well, whatever you say."

He paused, then added, "But it was I, a prisoner, who saved your Silver Dragon Clan from Constantine a week ago."

"Yes, yes, that's why I said you're the best prisoner~"

Well, it seems we can't get around the issue of prisoners of war.

Leon chose to comply with her.

"Hmm... actually, you're really amazing. I always thought you were just bragging."

This was indeed what Losweiser thought. After the battle with Constantine, she genuinely felt that Leon was a very strong person, even ridiculously strong.

Normally, she wouldn't praise him, lest he get too cocky.

But let's boast a bit tonight while we're still drunk. Tomorrow, I'll just say I was too drunk and that what I said doesn't count. I'll play dumb with him and see what he can do about it.

"Ah, as expected of me, my mind is still so clear!" Losweiser thought to herself with a smug satisfaction.

Sure enough, Leon proudly puffed out his little chest. "Of course! You think I proclaimed myself the title of the strongest Dragon Slayer? It's recognized by the Empire!"

"Roar~~"

Losweiser turned her head, leaned forward, rested her small chin on Leon's arm, and looked at him with her beautiful silver eyes, "So you were captured by me three years ago, tsk tsk tsk."

Leon twisted his arm, shoving Losweiser's chin down. "I... I was framed by an inside man, otherwise I would have already—"

"What can I do? Hmm?"

"You..."

Strange, why can't I say what's on the tip of my tongue?

I was wondering why the Dragon Mark wasn't glowing, so why was the mouth acting out of control?

Could it be... that I've developed feelings of pity for this Dragon Queen?

Ouch... that's terrifying!

He pursed his lips, unsure how to change the subject.

"Hmph, you heartless dog of a man," Losweiser said angrily.

"How am I heartless? We were enemies back then. Besides, if I hadn't used Blood Seduction on you three years ago, wouldn't I have been destroyed by you long ago?"

"Back then, we were enemies?" Losweiser grasped the key phrase.

"Yes." 6.

"So you mean... we're not enemies anymore?" Zero

Leon, feeling embarrassed, turned his head away and muttered, "Still enemies, just temporarily raising three daughters together."

Losweiser got angry.

She reached out and turned Leon's chin, making him turn his head towards her. Then, she pinched and rubbed his cheeks repeatedly.

"When the world ends, all magic will be gone, and all living things will turn to ash, but your mouth will definitely still be alive and well!" Si

How could Leon let her bully him like this?

Naturally, he pinched Losweiser's cheek in the same way. (8)

The two of them were like childish elementary school kids playfully pinching each other's faces, sitting on the steps, neither willing to let go.

"So, what should I say? Hmm?" Nan

"Say you're my prisoner!"

"I won't tell! Let go of me right now!"

"I won't let go! Say you're my prisoner and I'll let go!"

"No! Let go first!"

"No, you go first!"

"..."

After pinching for a while, Losweiser finally gave in, "I'll count to three, two, one, and we'll let go together."

Leon's eyes flickered slightly. "Okay."

"Three... two... one!"
