Leon carefully carried the unconscious rooster back into the hut and gently placed it inside with the chicks. Afterward, he made his way to the cliff behind his dwelling. Seated there, he gazed out at the vast expanse of the ocean and then retrieved a ring from his pocket. His eyes fixed on the ring briefly before he averted his gaze, idly fiddling with it.In a soft, almost hesitant tone, he murmured, "You know, Nia..." He paused, his lips forming the words with care, "You asked me why I didn't tell you sooner, didn't you?"His gaze ascends to the sky, fixating on the drifting clouds, as his mind becomes entangled in thoughts and memories from the past two years.During that period, Leon's habitual morning routine involved waking up early, and a consistent part of it was going to the back of his hut, drawing water from the nearby well, and using it for his morning ablutions.However, ever since the first night he spent in that forest, there was an additional recurring element to this

While Luis remained visibly bewildered, Joshua, who had been observing from the background, finally stepped forward to mediate and defuse the tense situation. "Sir, please, lower your sword," he urged, keeping his hand on his hilt but refraining from drawing his weapon. "We didn't mean to provoke you. He simply confused you with someone else."Leon regarded Joshua with a blend of irritation and curiosity, gradually relenting and lowering his sword, though not without reluctance. His acted in this situation was truly remarkable.'I should receive an award for this,' Leon thought humorously.The knights maintained their vigilant stances but refrained from launching an attack. Luis, now regaining some composure, apologized, saying, "I apologize, sir. Something about you seemed familiar, which led to my confusion with my late brother."Leon's expression softened for a moment as he scrutinized Luis carefully. "I don't recall having a younger brother," he said, his tone less harsh than befo

Several days had passed since that fateful day, and Leon's daily routine had, for the most part, remained unchanged. However, if there were any notable differences to point out..."Hey, everyone... it's time to eat," Leon called out. He now had 'kids' to take care of, including their father."Hey, Tam, what are you up to? Come over here," he said, and the rooster swiftly responded, hurrying toward Leon upon hearing his name."You've done a great job looking after your little ones, huh?" Leon patted the rooster as a reward for caring for the chicks while he was away. "Though, in the first place, it should've been your responsibility." he added. Then, he turned his attention to the chicks."You're all growing up fast. Enjoy your meal, okay?"With that, he left the chickens and proceeded to the front gate."What's going on?" he inquired of his surroundings."It's been a few days, and now you've come. What's the reason?"His days had been relatively peaceful recently, but today seemed to

Leon believed this marked the perfect beginning of his peaceful days.But then, on that unexpected day, he found himself baffled, wondering, 'haa... just why did this happened?'As Leon looked around, three men were casually eating, while he was left in confusion.To understand why this occurred, we need to rewind to the time when Leon had just arrived in town to gather his supplies. As he strolled through the market, engaged in some price negotiations, he casually remarked, "This looks good too."Taking a bite of the pear in his hand that he had pay, he was startled when a sudden voice reached his ears."Oh..."He thus casually glanced back to determine if it was directed at him."Oohhh!!!"That's when he noticed three men dressed in com

Leon sprinted through the forest, extending his aura across its expanse, as he cried out to the four beast of the woods, "Make haste to my dwelling!" Upon his return home, he swiftly entered his hut and gathered his belongings, thinking, 'I must depart from this place without delay.' The circumstances he had hoped to avoid had come to pass. Rather than remaining in the same location and potentially encountering those individuals again, Leon chose to depart. "Tam, gather your offspring," he instructed. While packing, he communicated telepathically with the rooster outside. As his belongings isn't that many, he quickly completing his preparations before exiting the hut. He then headed towards the back, where the graves lay. He took a moment to gaze at the graves and remarked, "I shall now take my leave, and there's a chance I won't return to this place." His eyes then shifted to the horizon, tracing the clouds above. "Though I won't depart without taking care of 'that' first." With
Duke's Son Wish To Follow The Story chapter 192 : Cloud kingdom
Approaching the altar, Leon's attention was drawn to intricate carvings etched into the material resembling clouds. These engravings depicted various scenes and symbols, some of which possibly conveyed the stories and legends associated with the Cloud Kingdom. "This is quite intriguing," Leon muttered to himself as he carefully examined the carvings. He continued to trace their details when his eyes fell upon an object resembling a book positioned at the center of what appeared to be a door within the carvings. This book was unlike any other he had encountered. Its cover was crafted from cloud-like material, and its pages displayed intricate, ever-shifting patterns. His curiosity overwhelmed him, prompting him to reach out and take hold of the book. Upon contact, he felt a surge of energy coursing through him, and the book opened by itself. The pages emitted a brilliant light that temporarily blinded him, and simultaneously, a rush of memories flooded his mind. Unconsciously, he clos

While the tale of Leon's legend circulated within the Daracula Forest, Leon, on the other hand, was met with a quizzical reception from the inhabitants of Cloud Kingdom. As two people in front of many residents stepped forward, Leon followed suit, and they converged at the center. Among the two, an elderly man warmly greeted Leon, saying, "It's a pleasure to see you, young man. Welcome to the Cloud Kingdom." Leon replied, "Ah, yes. Nice to meet you too." A younger man standing next to the elder clicked his tongue and remarked, "Tch, why would you greet him that way, old man? Isn't it obvious that this guy has come to cause trouble?" In response, the elder scolded him by landing a staff on the younger man's head, saying, "Just keep quiet, Izekel. You ignorant brat!" Turning his attention back to Leon, the elderly man apologized, "Right, sorry about this, young man. But... It's been a while since our slumber, and it seems you're the one who woke us up." Murmurs rippled through the

Zedd's expression soured as he realized that Luis could still pull pranks on him in this situation. He turned away, choosing to focus on the ongoing fight instead. After a while, they managed to escape the chaos and reached Daniel's hut, catching their breath. Among them, Luis, looking much better, quickly scanned their surroundings."Hmm?"Luis spoke quietly to himself, searching inside the hut. The others perked up, wondering why Luis appeared frantic."What's wrong?""What's going on?"Before Luis finally emerged from the hut and began shouting,"Daniel is gone!"Only then did the others comprehend his words."No way...""Ah..."They quickly searched their surroundings, looking for any trace or sign of human presence. Despite their efforts, there was no clue of Daniel's whereabouts."It seem he's been gone for a few days now.""Since our last meeting?""I think so," Joshua replied."Tch, we're too late."The crown prince clicked his tongue, disappointed by their futile effort."Is

The pair fell into a brief silence upon hearing Leon's words.Indeed, their visit here wasn't solely for this investigation.As narrated in the novel, at this point, the duo should have been progressing on their journey somewhere in the eastern lands. Upon discovering clues regarding the dragon's presence there, they set out to investigate.Yet, somehow, they find themselves here instead.This unforeseen circumstance likely stems from the butterfly effect of Leon's attendance at the banquet, causing the issue to escalate to a point where they couldn't ignore it.It's not that Leon failed to grasp their perspective; rather,'They ought not to divert their attention this way. They should continue their journey. Otherwise, the narrative would veer off course.'That's why Leon gently reminds them, despite the risk of raising suspicion."...It's true that we had other matters to attend to, but... how did you become aware of that, Your Majesty? I don't recall mentioning it, do you, Josh?""

Joshua and Luis exchanged glances. Having heard the recounted story, they now identified the culprit responsible for everything that had occurred. However, this revelation didn't automatically translate into complete trust in the witch's narrative, even considering her close association with the duchess and duke. They were well aware of the witches' notorious reputation. Furthermore, recognizing that only one side of the story didn't guarantee authenticity, Joshua stated, "We need to delve deeper into our investigation if we want to find the truth."Luis agreed, saying, "I agree. For now, let's return to your majesty and hear his side of the story before drawing any more conclusions." Subsequently, they expressed their gratitude and took their leave.Julia and the witches were once again left alone in the cabin. The place then lapsed into silence for a moment. Contemplating something, Julia finally made up her mind and spoke, "Ellen... could you assist me with something?""Me?"******

Meanwhile, in another cabin."I apologize, Juli. I couldn't arrange a better place for you in advance.""Hey, what are you saying? Don't act like I'm a stranger. We're friends.""Hahaha, right, we're friends. But still, you must be shocked to see me like this.""...I'm more surprised to see you suddenly change like that. Did the curse break?"Julia inquired, a bit curious after witnessing Ellen, the witch, transform her appearance into her past beautiful self right before her eyes."Ah, that... it's thanks to Daniel.""Hmm? Why thanks to him?""Well, I don't know yet, but you know about my weaknesses, right?""Your core, yes, I know. So?""I don't know why, but whenever that guy touches me or my core, my appearance reverts back to the old me. It's quite a miracle, though I still don't know why.""..."Julia fell into contemplation, absorbing her friend's words as her mind worked to pinpoint the truth. She spoke cautiously,"Ellen, who cursed you? My husband won't tell me much. Did you
Chapter 224 : Mother 3
The dragon known to Leon as Tania had a past when she was called Tania Ermir. This was the name she bore before marrying her late husband, Daniel Arwin. As an egg, she was discovered by the royalty of the Cloud's Kingdom, who took care of her since her mother passed away shortly after laying the egg. Despite their care, Tania had to fend for herself during the crucial moments of her egg's survival. After centuries in her egg form, Tania emerged as a beautiful snake dragon. The Cloud's Kingdom royalty treated her as their own, giving her the name Tania and adopting their family name, Ermir. However, driven by adult dragon instincts, Tania eventually left the kingdom to journey on her own, only to return and find her hometown no longer existing. 'She had a challenging journey,' Leon thought before continuing, "in any case, now you comprehend the ties I have to that forest and the clouds, and you've discovered my identity. Thus, that concludes the first question, doesn't it?" Luis no

Leon's eyes briefly swept across the three figures, offering them a slight bow before returning his attention to Ellen. He felt no compulsion to extend excessive greetings to them. His focus shifted, driven by a more pressing matter."Anyway, how did this happen?" His question aimed to unravel the current situation before him. Ellen had been in this condition for an extended period, making her sudden ability to contact her friends a dubious development.The notion of her meeting his mother seemed implausible, given the duchess's infrequent outings. As for forming acquaintanceship with the boys, especially Joshua, it appeared highly unlikely. Joshua, with his temperament, would unquestionably eliminate her, just as he had done to Tania. After all, the witch was notorious for her atrocities.And what about the duke, Carl? Carl possessed the ability to travel great distances, using methods unknown to Leon. If he intended to return home without utilizing his unique abilities, Leon was con

"Anyway, Gray... I'll be departing from this place tomorrow."CrackThe glass in Gray's hand cracked the moment Leon finished his sentence. Gray swiftly shifted his attention to Leon, his other hand still gripping a jug of water, as he inquired, "I will follow you, right? Your Majesty?""Hmm?" Leon took a bite of the bread he had soaked in mushroom soup."I will be leaving alone, though," he casually stated."What!? Then... then, what about me?""You'll stay here.""But why? Your Majesty... is there something you don't like about me? I'll fix it—""Fix your way of calling me first," Leon muttered sternly, though his demeanor remained casual."Alright... Milord. I will call you that... is that okay?""Hmm, much better. Even so, you won't follow me.""What? Why?"Gray's question made him look like an abandoned puppy, but Leon wasn't moved in the slightest."You still have things to do here for me. So, stay. I will go home alone."In the end, Gray had to give up."...Haa, I will do as yo
Chapter 221 : Gray 2
Anyway, that's what transpired. However, when it came to the conversation between Daniel and the cloud people, Gray remained unaware. He was preoccupied being given a tour by the Cloud's inhabitants.Upon leaving the location, Daniel handed him a piece of canvas and explained that he had used it to secure their entry to the palace.Confusion clouded Gray's mind about how it happened. Nevertheless, witnessing Daniel's familiarity with the cloud people and hearing them address him as "Milord," Gray had no doubt about the truth of his current master's words.Furthermore,'Even though he said he would just pretend to be the royalty of the Cloud's Kingdom... I'm pretty sure that this man— he was indeed the king of these people!'There was a misunderstanding in Gray's mind that Daniel was, in fact, a royal figure.From that moment onward, the way Gray treated Leon changed. Instead of addressing him as sir or milord, he now referred to him as his majesty, fitting of his lord's status. Althou
Chapter 220 : Canvas
Despite Gray's incredulity at what he was witnessing, both he and Leon found themselves on the cloud. People who appeared engrossed in their own activities halted their work and approached the duo, forming a crowd. Leading them was an elderly man who greeted Daniel as if they were familiar. "Milord, we have come as you called. Is there something the matter?" "Hey Anan, sorry to call you suddenly, but... I just wanted to ask you something. Can we talk for a moment?" "Sure. But that man..." "Ah, he's my servant. I'll leave him in the care of others for a moment. Can you guys show him around, perhaps?" "Sure, it's my joy to do so!" "We will do it for you, milord!" "Yeah, young man, please follow us!" While Gray was being led around by the cloud's inhabitants, Leon ventured to a secluded spot with Anan. "By the way, Anan... I don't recall you ever calling me 'milord' before. Why now?" "...That's right. At first, we didn't think we could use that title, as it's reserved for our ma

"Arghhh* RAN!!! Please help us!! De-demon!! A child watches as his village burns down. All around him, the air is filled with screams from the villagers. His hands clench tightly onto the body of his mother, who carries him while running. His father was left behind to protect them both. Although at first, his mother hesitated, for him, she ran. How long has it been? He didn't know. However, the only time his mother stops is when they no longer see the village in their sight. His mother leans down behind a tree, still tightly hugging him and patting him, telling him everything will be fine, that she will protect him. "Mother..." The small child utters those words unconsciously, trying to look up to see his mother's face. Thud* Suddenly, at that moment, his ears hear the sound of something falling near him. His eyes stop turning at his mother; instead, his head instinctively turns to look at what had fallen. 'What is that?' His head questions, looking at an unknown object l
