Chapter 72: Heart…
Leon abandoned his fortress.
He didn't drop it in the system yet, for that information surely would reach the spirit monsters. For now, he and his people silently left the fortress, keeping an eye on their surroundings.
Celes had done most of that work, though. She noticed a few monsters looking their way, but because Leon's skill excelled against them, their eyes remained blind.
The vampiress kept close attention on those monsters.
"Winterborn's battle must be over, Master." Louise gazed ahead, not finding any snow.
She believed snow people had already finished their battle or maybe even died. It'd be a pity since Louise wanted to see people that had helped them before entering the realm. Her master complained about buying too many traps and stuff to deal with bug monsters, but Louise knew it was better to be prepared than be regretful.
But to her surprise, Louise had noticed the snow women, crystal giants, and a white bird!
Leon curiously and cautiously trained his eyes on them.
The snow women were girls of snow skin and donned thick fur clothes. He only saw their faces, for their equipment covered the rest of their bodies. Their bodies surely produced a lot of cold, for their normal breathing produced steam. But it was odd for them to wear such warm clothes.
Nonetheless, as their blue eyes shone at him, Leon nodded, telling them he wasn't here for their lives.
But then, a group of four men jumped out from Leon's wake, stepping to the front. They took out their weapons and pointed them at the Winterborn.
pαndα`noνɐ1--сoМ The leader licked his lips before parting them to speak. "Ender! We'll help you catch those snow women! Leave the rest to us and enjoy them!"
"Those crystal giants and white bird ain't challenge to us!" Another one spoke in a lecherous tone.
Those guys didn't just think with their manhoods, for the Winterborn had been wounded. The snow women and the white bird had blood on them, and their breathing was erratic. The crystal giants seemed like living beings sculpted from the crystal ice, and their backs had deep scratches, as though the dragon's claw had gone through them and gouged out their flesh.
One of them had a see-through hole, probably from the water bomb.
Thus, the lecherous group of four decided to score a few points by helping Leon get snow women. In exchange, he'd ensure their survival…
"So you're telling me that I'm a man who catches monster women to indulge in them? That I go around the world to catch them all?" Leon wheeled to the leader of this lecherous group, glowering at them. "Is that what you are trying to tell me?"
"Didn't you catch the fox and vampiress? Didn't you fill them so much that they can't live without you? Ender, we can tell how it is! Don't play an innocent card!" Do those men think that Leon caught Louise and Celes, then boned them to the point that they love him so much that they cling to him?
Leon lifted his hand, then wrapped his chains around the man's neck. "I don't even want to know what has happened in your pitiful life that you only see girls this way. There's so much to explore and nurture, you know? Much more than just sexual pleasure… Sigh, you can only reach so far with your little schlong. For instance, heart-"
"Heart!" Hearing Leon's following word, another man chimed in to help his buddy. "Ever heard of a tit-job?!"
Celes nearly burst out laughing when she heard those words. In a few seconds, Louise saw through her, connecting the dots even though she didn't know any foreplay and just common knowledge of the intercourse, and she also covered her lips with her little hands.
The Winterborn narrowed their eyes, seemingly dead.
From the crowd behind Leon, many giggles slammed into Leon's back.
Wearing the same expression as the snow women, Leon stood with dead eyes. "Seriously?"
"Yeah! That's how you reach the heart! Some chicks love it so much, Ender!"
Leon clenched his chains, flaring them up.
[You have killed Lv. 41 human.]
[You have killed Lv. 39 human.]
[You have…]
[You have…]
Leon shifted his eyes to Louise, then asked. "Why are you laughing?"
Louise spoke with her little hands pressed on her lips, holding her laughter. "B-Because Master… w-wanted to broaden those men's horizons and t-t-teach them!" She nearly exploded from laughing at the end.
"At least you understand." Leon clicked his tongue, not understanding how a girl with amnesia could understand it and not those men with clearly some life experience. "I would have killed them anyway. Don't want others to compare me to him."
Louise went through an instant change since she knew whom her master referred. She cast him a lovely and sweet smile, then followed his eyes, hovering them on the snow women.
Celes kept laughing, though.
And so did the crowd.
"I don't see a dragon." Leon's next words silenced the crowd, but the vampiress naturally couldn't care, and she kept trembling from amusement, shaking those ample curves.
The snow woman closed her eyes and replied in a pleasant tune. "She's escaped. It appears that she can't go all out against us…."
Another snow woman added. "She must have an important role in this realm."
Leon didn't know what kind of a role she could have. "They force others to sign a one-sided contract with them, turning humans into their slaves. In this way, I reckon they can leave the split spirit realm."
"You're right… But there's still a chance for them to save it." The snow woman replied and explained. "In some extreme cases, too much spilled blood can sink into the earth and evolve into a high-quality nutrient, keeping the split world safe and open. There's a chance that they want to kill more people…."
Because Leon had long since accepted that the Freya World was crueler, he didn't doubt her words. "They're clever and have prepared a plan for every variable. If the world crumbles, they'll leave through contracted people. And if they manage to keep it open, they'll have many cards to negotiate with the Silver Wing Royal Guild.
"But in case this realm actually ceases to exist, shouldn't they be worried about forces outside the crack?" Leon asked the snow woman, for she seemed to have more knowledge about the spirit realm.
Celes knew about contracts and skills to connect to the spirit realm. She didn't know about all variables and blood evolving in the realm's soil.
The snow woman opened her eyes and looked at Leon. "Wouldn't you take risks if both worlds were against you?"
Leon sighed and agreed.
Little did he know that the coffin had successfully landed in the spirit monsters' hands. It was that thing that gave them hope to keep their realm safe. They even believed that they'd soon be able to open it and re-attach their realm to the main spirit realm.
Unfortunately, the dragon had descended into their ranks and told them about the dwarf's tale.
Someone had snatched the dwarf and forced black asura to follow him to the fortress.
Thus, the dragon and spirit realm monsters put a bounty on Leon's head.
Would there be more idiots to try their luck?
