Leveling Up with My Adorable Monster Girl Harem!

Chapter 48: If need be, I'll become the sun!

Not knowing what exactly 'someone exquisite' meant, Leon didn't pursue the topic.

Deep inside, he knew that no one would easily give up on their homeland, and many would gladly fight to the bitter end as long as there was a glimmer of hope. He understood those spirit monsters.

"Black Asura," Leon returned to the previous topic. "I believe that they're up to no good, but you could bring some light and enlighten us about their existence."

pαndα,noνɐ1,сoМ Feeling his yearning eyes, Celes didn't lag behind. "Yes. I'm familiar with them since they also don't like operating during the day. But in short, they're a selfish and evil race. You could argue, Master, that no one is born with an evil heart. That doesn't apply to them; they are even proud of it. Rumors say that Black Asura test their children's hearts just after they learn how to speak, write, and fight. Those with gentle and weak hearts get executed.

"Such a race naturally needs a strict hierarchy. Every corner of their society is also driven by profit and ranking, with those at the bottom having to accept jeers and shame from others. Their main objective is unknown, and even above-average black asura doesn't know the goal of their royal descendants. But to fulfill their mission, they'll use everything and dispose of everyone to achieve it, even themselves.

"In short, to turn them into docile pets, you'd have to use every extent of your Monster Collector Class, Master. That's how fucked up Black Asura are." Celes concluded with a silent sip of her new liquor.

Having no memory of the broad world, Louise asked, "And dwarves want to work with them? No, you said that a lot of people work with them. Even though they are so infamous?"

Leon and Celes could only warmly smile at this woman.

"You'll always find business partners in this world. Some will act like it's raining while their business partners openly spit at them." Celes coolly spoke, her words sounding right in Louise's mind, as though the scarlet fox could relate or understand them pretty well.

Feeling that, Louise didn't dwell on it and accepted the reality.

Celes also didn't share that it was Her Highness jeering and cleverly spitting at others.

Knock! Knock!

"Looks like our food is here." Leon stood up and went to pick up the plates. He couldn't help but stop and sniff more of dinner, which made him produce more saliva.

The Malre Inn also had much better standards, as plates came on a waiter's trolley, allowing Leon to bring them to their table easily.

With everyone cutting and stuffing their mouths with succulent meat, the talk continued.

Leon spoke while munching, "I ought to ask, even though I know I don't have to, but no one wants to stay behind, right?"

Louise and Celes threw him annoyed glances.

Leon chuckled and carried on, "We need to know every race that will enter that split realm. Currently, the Silver Wing Kingdom has seized the entrance as they plan to profit off it… Of course, I'm sure of them already exploring and fighting the spirit monsters. So, tomorrow, we'll sign to the Heaven Library Guild. Later that day, Celes will use her skills to spy on other races in the inn. It's best to know who we'll be facing soon."

Celes nodded without saying a word.

Louise glanced at her, then wheeled to her master. "What about me?"ραпdα `nᴏνɐ| сom

"Well, both of us will be on standby. Spying in an inn full of strong people is too risky. If they find out about Celes, we'll protect her." Leon explained and cast a smile at Louise. "We'll use the system shop to buy essential stuff, then play card games. You know any?"

"I… I know one…" Louise blushed and then looked away. "I thought Master would like to check on this city's smithy."

Not knowing why it was so shameful to know just one card game, Leon ignored that and replied to her other words, "There's no need."

Those words sounded different than usual.

Having the attention of his two partners, Leon made his goals clear. "I'll have a dwarf card soon. And with this, a vast library of blacksmithing knowledge."

Celes nodded, feeling great.

She recalled her plan to make Leon addicted to a taste of exquisite blood, wanting him to pursue different tastes just so he'd find a new goal and leave the village. But that turned into a power-up that he had under his control. Even more, it ended up with him becoming like a perfect vampire, unconsciously tightening their bond.

And because their vampire bonding was pretty ambiguous, Leon didn't need much self-control to keep that for special occasions. It'd be also better to not have Louise around.

On the other hand, Louise's heart produced so much excitement that her whole body became full of it in less than five seconds, trembling.

She dropped fork and knife, then leaned forward, facing her master with dilated eyes. "Master!"

Leon chuckled and tilted his head, "Yes?"

"Thank you!" Louise's face brightened as she lit up in lovely colors. "Master's doing so much for me. And I feel like what I'm giving in return is nothing. That's why I swear on my name that I'll do my best and break my limits to help you find and enslave that dwarf. If need be, I'll become the sun!"

Leon trained his eyes on her adorable face and extended his hand, pinching those red cheeks. "You've done more than you think, Louise. It's because of you that I've decided to adventure. You've given me a faint picture of happiness that might be a cure for my trauma and worries. And I told you already that I like trying out new stuff. Having the pleasure of adventuring with two beautiful girls, sleeping with them and enduring ordeals that come with it, and moving forward to our goals — it's just the beginning, but I feel like a lot of precious moments happened.

"I can't wait to see you getting back your memories." Leon smiled, looking at Louise, who returned to sit properly in her chair. "And I hope to see you meeting your sisters, Celes. I really believe they're alive."

With a glass of liquor lifted before her face, Celes curved her bloody lips. "I have doubts of you seeing them with that ambiguous picture of happiness of yours. But thank you, Master. You know how to heat me up."

Leon chuckled and struck his glass with her. "It's a faint picture. You can call it a sketch instead. It's because I'm a foreigner and still don't understand how to exactly manage such happiness. Well, enough of it. I look forward to meeting other people and all of us leveling up together."

"Hehe~~" Louise took a glass, too, striking it with her friends.

And as the bitter and hot liquor went down her throat, Louise hoped that she'd always smile like that. Even with full memories of someone that even The Human Emperor desperately wanted to enslave, Louise inwardly begged that she'd always show her master this happy smile.

A smile that kindled her heart, a smile that turned her cute face into the sun.
