Chapter 86: A hypocrite
"I might as well just kill her now if that's the goal." Leon didn't like slavery, so he wouldn't keep this woman alive just to play around with her.
Louise's sacrifice weighed the most on his heart, and he'd made that choice based on that feeling.
"I'll keep that dragon by our side and pour good vibes into her heart. She's aware of another soul within her - the original Alexandra Aquarisen. We'll corrupt her with goodwill and…" Leon didn't know what would happen after that.
In fact, if Louise wanted to kill that dragon and make food out of her, he probably wouldn't refuse her. It wasn't easy to meet dragons and make a contract with them, so meals out of her would probably significantly boost their strength. Even now, Leon could simply force her to give him one of her legendary skills, then be done with her.
"And what?" Celes asked, knowing that her master had to make a choice.
Leon looked into her eyes. He could ask for Her Highness' ways, but he didn't need to guess what that woman would have done in his place. She surely would have sucked out the dragon's blood, sold Alexandra's flesh and bones, fed her forces with the rest, or maybe done even crueler stuff.
But Leon was a man much different from the majority. As Alexandra said, he had too much power, but his mindset was the real problem. The Black Spirit told him the same stuff.
Leon still carried some of his morals from Earth. But many of these had already been gone ever since the split spirit realm's event, where Leon understood that no amount of people's cheers would match up to what those closest to him gave him, that he wasn't your typical hero or person seeking fame.
For him, life was colorless without his girls — to be with them, Leon would force high ambitions and even scratch the power of those five human ancestors if need be.
"And we'll force the real version to live with the second soul until her demise." Leon came to a conclusion, then explained his reasoning after Celes' eyes threatened him. "It's hypocritical… I know, but I don't care. I'll give her a second chance and see how she does against the second personality. We'll see how the second Alexandra does and conducts herself, too. If she isn't able to corrupt the original soul, we'll get rid of them both."
"You didn't give a second chance to the men that insinuated that you've boned us, Master." Celes smirked and brought out the topic that Leon didn't want to talk about. "Is it because she's a hot woman?"
"The peak humanity body affects the brain the most." Leon gently pressed his index finger on Celes' forehead and continued. "For that reason, I can fight at a high level despite not having any battle experience, and more. I have abundant stats, too, but the main feature is up here." Leon poked that spot a few times more, then dropped his hand.
"I held it back from its full potential, but a man without flaws is no man." Leon looked at the legendary dragon. "And even legends have those, so I'm not excluded from that. Anyway, I know it's hypocritical, and I'm aware of it. That's the most important, right?"
The vampiress pondered for a while, then asked the last question. "If Louise died-"
"I would dislike dragons and have a biased prejudice against them." Leon chimed in, stopping his black-haired girl from speaking more about Louise. "Take the dwarf as an example. I easily caught him and turned him into a card. After I absorb all of his knowledge, I'll get rid of him. That's because Louise doesn't like dwarfs. I won't have one in my party. And I've learned a few things of the past — I know a little of what happened between scarlet foxes and the dwarves."
"I won't pursue this matter anymore, Master." Celes wrapped her arm around Leon, sensing his dislike toward dwarves, then took out a different umbrella and unfolded it above them. "But you know, I'd rather have you kill your enemies to make things easier. Get their information and kill them — done. That's the best course."
"I won't have that Monster Collector Class soon… I believe in that, so yeah, that might be the way." Leon didn't want to talk about that anymore.
In the first place, Alexandra survived only because of his class… Leon thought more about it, but that class was closely related to the five human ancestors from the past and the concepts they wielded.
So Leon knew that he had a lot ahead of himself…
"You have taken a liking to umbrellas?" Leon changed the topic, focusing on what he loved the most.
Celes swirled the black-red umbrella and broadly smiled. "Can you imagine me tanned? Would you like me this way?"
"I prefer your pale skin." Leon replied akin immediately. "I like snow skin the most."
pαndα---noνɐ1,сoМ "Mmm~~" The vampiress purred.

"Well done." Leon stood behind Alexandra, peeking inside his carriage.
His new maid had done her work well, and everything was in a proper place, tidy. It looked like a new place, so Leon knew that he would sleep well tonight. He didn't let that appear on his face and spoke rather curtly and harshly, but Alexandra still leaped in joy, thrilled.
She bowed low, smiling. "Thank you so much, my master! I'm relieved and ecstatic that you like my work!"
"How's the evil dragon?" Leon quickly switched to the next topic as though wanting to kill her enthusiasm.
Alexandra didn't mind that and lifted her eyes to directly look into her master's hues. "She's very loud and sometimes makes me puke out the blood, but I'll be fine, Master. You haven't saved me, only to see me die in your care. I'll face her soon!"
Leon didn't even want to imagine how loud Alexandra could be and how it hurt her body, mainly her ears and throat… He nodded and didn't focus on that topic too.
Instead, Leon was interested in what he could gain from the blue dragon.
Ultimately, his and his beloveds' power was the most important.
"I'm interested in your enchantment skill."
The blood streamed down Alexandra's lips, but she curled her lips up and grinned. "I'll teach you all I know about it, my master! You're the one who can take it to the higher level!"
After those words, Alexandra lifted her hands and covered her mouth.
She vomited too much of that red liquid.
