Phil turns his gaze towards Leon."Young master.... can we have a talk??"puzzled*Leon seems puzzled at Phil's serious expression.'what is it?? i don't have a good feeling about this.'Leon thus sighed as he blinks his eyes once."well...just the two of us???"He smiles slightly towards Phil as Phil nodded his head.Leon sit up from his lying position and nodded his head too."sorry father...can you and Luis please leave us alone for a moment???"Leon pleads as he looks into his father's eyes with a slight smile.Duke Carl ponders before answering."haaa...fine... just don't talk too long...we need to proceed with the investigation after this."flinched*Leon's flinched as he heard the words investigation.'hmm... they should not investigate this...what should i do??'Leon's heart thumped as his brain was processing this matter."Father....about that...i have a request..."Leon uttered as he bites his lips a little.His father frowned.'i got a feeling that he will ask me to stop th
'What an unlucky bastard'Leon stares at Luis with pitiful eyes. He really feels sorry for him because later on, if he left the house, Luis will need to be a Lord and at the same time, help the MC.'if i were him... i would be annoyed... i don't like people disturbing my life after all.'He smiles weakly at Luis while his expression still giving off a look of pity.Luis who realizes his brother's gaze stares back at him with a frowning expression.'why does he look at me like that?? is there something on my face??'Luis felt slightly anxious as he sees more of his brother's expression."haaa... you...why do you keep talking about leaving??"Duke Carl says in a whisper. He felt gloomy all of sudden because of Leon's honest remark.Luis who heard his father's comment quickly turn his head towards his father figure.He could understand his father feeling at this moment.They just pass a critical moment of Leon escaping his almost-dead situation, and yet, Leon's already talking about leav
"Young master...."Suddenly in those kinds of atmospheres where everything looks warm, Phil grabs both Leon's crossing hands. His eyes looked somewhat determined on something.Leon's frowning"i will do my best to save you!!"Phil finishes his sentence, and as soon as Leon hears it, he then looks at Phil with more frown than before.'what kind of bullshit did this doc was thinking???'As he thought that, he ended up looking at Phil with an utter disbelief expression.Phil still stares back at him with a determined look."Sir Phil... I'm fine...you don't necessarily need to do anything."Leon remarks to ensure Phil didn't do anything stupid that could annoy him.Phil's eyebrows both rise at those words"but young master.. your inside...ther-""huuu.."Phil flinched as Leon cut off his words.Leon's hand slips away from Phil's grasp. Phil watched as it slipped away."Snake Dragon...."Phil's expression frowning. His hand falls and grasps both his knee."i had that poison inside me ..."
With that talk and other things. Phil left Leon's room and went to inform the maid to clean Leon's room.While that, Leon after eating lunch, is at the library despite being prevented by everyone including Phil.pfft*'hahaha... i feel bad for him but... i just can't relax.'Leon's thought while smirking slightly as he remembers his conversation with Phil. Phil's expression at the time look so much concerned and tired. As he can't persuade Leon, he finally admits defeat and goes home to rest."he didn't get a chance to sleep after all...haa..."Leon sighed as he was reading more books. In front of him was a larger table and stack of books. Any
Inside Duke Carl's Office."Young master Leon is still inside the library my lord..."Kelt reported as he look straight at Duke Carl whose hand was busy researching the documents in front of him.His hand then stops. He lifts his head to gaze at Kelt the butler."Is he still there??? isn't he gone there since lunch???"Duke asks while his face frowning. He was slightly frustrated with his son who doesn't seem to really care about his own body condition."yes, milord... it seems that young master Leon is so engrossed in reading books that he doesn't want to leave the library..."Replies Kelt with a calm expression. He actually already trying to talk Leon to come out for dinner but, Leon ignores him and locks the door from inside. He already pass the food to the guards as Leon instructed, but."and the food seem untouched either....""haa..."Duke Carl sigh as he heard Kelt's words. He seemed to contemplate something before speaking up."hmmm... just let him be for now. he won't listen
On that note, the day after that, Leon meets his father regarding his desire to went to the capital earlier than expected. His father who doesn't get shocked anymore by his son's whine decides to approve it as his wish for. Hence, days pass by while Leon did nothing but spend his time at the library, his room and his garden. He also avoids interaction with others as much as possible. His pain was also already gone two days after his treatment. And today, one day before his departure to the capital, in his room three people are sitting on the couch. Leon was sitting on the single couch while Kelt and Phil both sat on the double couch, facing each other. They were both on the right and left side of Leon. "hmm young master, may i know the reason why you ask me to be here??" "Phil... you remember our conversation after my treatment??" "hmm??? i do but why??" Phil was looking at Leon in confusing as instead of answering his questions, Leon was also asking him a question. From Phil'
'but... besides that diary... i think i had a good reason to keep him alive.' Leon probed his chin as he thought that. Both Phil and Kelt were still staring at him in disbelief and questioning gazes. He once again ignores those stares. There's nothing he could do about their doubt after all. He then shrugs his shoulder in response to their stares. "it's up to you Kelt... just so you know...I already got the proof and we are not the only ones who know about this... if anything happens here... the others will respond accordingly... i give you five minutes to answer me...if you didn't..." Leon dragged his words for a moment before speaking up again as his eyes closed and his body which lean towards Kelt at some point lean back again while his hand was on the couch armrest. "you will be punished according to this house rule...which you already know what that means, right?" There's only a single meaning when he says that. It means to die. Just like in any other territory, attempting
"well... my father used to say to me..."Leon smiled while reminiscing about that moment when his father conveyed the meaning of their family's motto to the original Leon in the past."That's why, for me who's not a part of this family... you who might try to kill me...was someone that i thought as my family.. so i will set a line between your good and evil accordingly... that's my first reason for my action..."Kelt looked at Leon with trembling eyes. When Leon said that, his heart fluttered and felt heavy. He could not reply to Leon's words in the slightest. His heart ached and guilt overwhelmed him.'why .. ?? I'm an assassin you know...
