Magical Genius With Quantum Magic - Chapter 166
Introduction
Leon led four women and stood in front of Riel.
“Are these people you want to introduce?”
“Bar, nice to meet you. mother.”
Olivia Ibrium opened her mouth with a very nervous voice that was not the first to be heard.
“Oh my gosh, shut up.”
“Oh, no. mother. Because I respect Leon, and if it were his mother, of course I should take care of her.”
“Right. mother. I told you before.”
There is no difference in status in the Demon Kingdom Veritas.
Of course, when people from other countries, where the identity system clearly exists, visit Veritas, the problem becomes difficult.
The fact that everyone has the same status means that everyone is a commoner.
The nobles treat the people of Veritas as common people, but there are, of course, those who hold positions in charge of the chief of Veritas.
People who are commoners but hold a higher rank than aristocrats.
Naturally, they were not obligated to show respect to the nobles, and if they did not treat the nobles as nobles, it was obvious that a quarrel would arise.
Naturally, the relationship between Veritas and neighboring countries was never smooth, and thanks to this, the people of Veritas Kingdom often treated their opponents appropriately if they were aristocrats or royalty.
That was the reality.
Of course, when the opponent crossed a certain frontier, there were many cases where he revealed power or, to be more precise, magic to subdue the opponent and incapacitate it.
Thanks to this, the Kingdom of Veritas faced numerous diplomatic problems, but Leon nevertheless had no intention of changing the present democratic system.
Even if they were aristocrats or royalty from other countries, as long as they crossed the border and entered the magic kingdom, they would all become commoners.
Nobles who came to the Magic Kingdom with the intention of taking a tour because of the rumor that Veritas Kingdom is such a good land to live in, returned to their home countries with only displeasure.
Of course, very few of them were astonished at the magical state of the people who were merely commoners, and were also in awe of the military power of the Veritas Kingdom.
“When Olivia is elsewhere, she may be a princess of the Millennium Empire, but after she set foot in the wizarding kingdom, she is only a commoner.”
“okay. It was. then······.”
Although Riel was still unfamiliar with the democratic system of the wizarding kingdom, he tried to change his personality as much as possible and opened his mouth.
“It’s nice to finally meet you like this. Olivia. I heard that Leon and I were engaged. Please take good care of my son.”
At Riel’s words, Olivia put on a very recalled expression.
“I am very grateful.”
It was Olivia, who thought everything was fake.
Not only his own identity, but also his race and even his engagement to Leon.
However, after receiving the introduction of Leon’s mother, the most precious being in Leon’s world, he was able to gain confidence that the engagement would no longer be canceled.
“And is this Ailee Philost, the princess of the Philo Empire?”
Ailee looked very nervous.
“yes. mother.”
Riel first approached Ailee like that and gently stroked her hand.
“He suffered because of him. I am really sorry.”
“Oh, no. It’s not because of my mother. Rather, it’s no disgrace that Leon was forced to do such a thing because of me.”
“As I heard from Leon, you are a really kind-hearted baby.”
“Did Leon tell me?”
“sure. I was also told that many things would have gone differently if my sister hadn’t been by my side. My sister has guided me on the right path.”
“Leon….”
Ailee looked back with a shocked expression.
Leo was embarrassed and scratched the back of the head, but there was no lie in what he said to his mother.
Leon was burning with revenge.
When Leon returned for the first time, even if the whole world was burned, as long as he could overthrow the Farostel magic family, and if he could achieve revenge, he had the mindset that whatever the world might be like.
But I met Ailee.
At first, he did not have the strength to protect himself from the family and needed political protection.
Not just for revenge, but to make the world where Leon and Riel live in the future a better place to live.
“It feels good to hear that Leon and Agi are getting married. Please keep an eye on Leon so he doesn’t get lost in the future.”
“Yes. Of course. mother.”
Olivia watched the conversation between the two with a slightly uncomfortable expression.
In terms of status and as the first person to be engaged, he declared that he was the one who became Leon’s fiancee, but in the end, it was Ailee who was the first to marry Leon.
However, Olivia was well aware of the relationship between the Kingdom of Veritas and the Empire of Philo.
As a princess of the Millennium Empire, she could not be unaware that a war might break out if Leon and Ailee did not get married and strengthen their alliance as soon as possible.
What bothered Olivia more than anything else was the fact that Leon’s mother seemed to care more about Ailee than herself.
I was so jealous of that fact that I could hardly control my facial expressions.
Next was Arya.
“Are we spherical?”
“It’s been a while. mother.”
Arya had visited the villa managed by Riel to express her gratitude after she was saved with Leon’s help in the past dungeon raids.
“Even then, I thought it was pretty. I thought there was something wrong with Leon’s eyes on the young lady, but it turned out like this.”
“The eyes that look at me…?”
“mother.”
Leon was bewildered and called Riel, but Riel covered his mouth and made a playful expression.
“I have watched this child all my life. I can’t fool my eyes even if no one else knows. Obviously, Leon fell in love with the young lady at first sight.”
Arya looked at Leon as if to confirm the authenticity, but Leon simply avoided his gaze.
And Leon is now starting to think that the meeting between them and his mother may have been a mistake.
“I was embarrassed because I had someone to introduce, but I didn’t know that I would bring these beautiful girls for three minutes. Think of this as revenge for him.”
Leon shook his head and groaned, but at the same time smiled softly at the new look of his mother.
My mother had never shown such a playful side because she had lived with all her freedoms restricted.
If she thought that this small change was proof that her mother had found true freedom, she could let go of being teased.
And Leon said.
“It’s not three people. mother.”
“···Oh?”
At Leon’s words, Veronica crouched and walked out.
“Leon, are you Veronica?”
“sorry. Hostess…”
“No, it’s not for you to be sorry. Of course, I knew that Leon loved you, but I didn’t know that it was a rational feeling, so I was just a little surprised.”
Also, the difference from the previous women is that if Olivia, Ailee, and Arya all have political inclinations based on their status, only Veronica excludes all of them.
So was Leon.
At first, Veronica was raised as a useful talent and subordinate, but sooner or later, feelings for her were sprouting in Leon’s heart.
Perhaps the decisive moment was when Leon was struck by the power of a nightmare.
When the secrets buried in Leon’s deepest were revealed, Veronica accepted even that and accepted Leon.
“By the way, Veronica, are you okay?”
“Yes?”
“Didn’t Leon force you to marry?”
“Oh, no! The owner is never like that! And I’ve been on it ever since my master didn’t see me as a woman…”
As she spoke, Veronica said, “Oops,” and shut her mouth.
At that, Riel smiled, folding the wrinkles around her eyes.
“If that’s your mind, then I’m happy. But Leon?”
“yes?”
“If you are a woman who is precious to you, and if you are a king who has established a country with no differences in status, how about correcting Veronica’s title for you soon?”
“ah······.”
We had been together for so long, and we were so used to it that we had forgotten about it.
master and maid.
That relationship had penetrated Leon’s beliefs and had taken root in the background.
From the beginning, Leon thought of making Veronica his subordinate, so he regarded Veronica’s title as “master” positively, but now it’s different.
The time has come to organize each other’s positions on an equal footing, person-to-person.
“veronica?”
“Yes Yes?”
“You don’t have to call me master anymore.”
“Ha, but…”
“You are no longer my maid.”
“But, my lord! Me, I’m satisfied enough just to be able to serve my master…!”
Veronica was trembling with anxiety.
Changing their relationship was inherently terrifying.
Of course, he knew that Leon’s intentions were not negative, but Veronica, who was fully satisfied with the position of Leon’s maid, had no choice but to be afraid.
“don’t worry. Just as you accepted all of me, I am ready to accept all of you. I took you out of necessity, and you must have been complacent that I needed you, but you don’t have to.”
At those words, Veronica’s brightly colored eyes were shaking as if an earthquake had occurred.
Leon continued talking to Veronica like that.
“Did I tell you before? As long as you exist as my sword, I will always be a sheath where you can stay in peace. Forget that now. Even if you’re no longer my sword, even if I don’t need you, the moment you accepted me, I swore I’d be the person you needed.”
“master······.”
Leon shook his head at Veronica’s small voice.
“Call me again.”
Veronica hesitated for a while at those words, but she was able to keep her face red and speak.
“Lee, Leon…….”
“okay. veronica.”
The six-person interview that was finally held ended in such a warm atmosphere.
Of course, it didn’t seem very warm when I remember the expressions the other three women were making.
* * *
Leon and Ailee’s wedding was held in a hurry, like roasting beans in a lightning bolt.
According to the culture of the Radiant Continent, it is the shrine where the wedding is held.
But it was no ordinary temple.
He rebuilt Veritas, the tower of truth that had collapsed, in the Philo Empire, and invited priests who served the truth in the Holy Empire and held their wedding there.
Its meaning is ‘absolutely unchanging’.
Like a truth that never changes or fades in meaning, he swore that the present relationship would last forever.
When that fact was first decided, the God of truth was Leon himself after all, so he refused at first because it would be a blessing for his own marriage, but he had no choice but to accept it because the schedule was too tight.
Finally, they confirm each other’s intentions and reveal Ailee’s face hidden under the veil.
“Then the bride and groom share the oath kiss.”
The procedure to decorate the end of the wedding ceremony.
Ailee whispered as their faces got close enough to touch each other’s breath.
“Call me.”
“Sister Ailee.”
“That’s not it.”
“·········Ailee.”
“good job. My prince.”
Ailee’s soft lips overlapped Leon’s.
It was a strange feeling, but Leon wondered if this was happiness.
A boring, peaceful daily life continued.
To the extent that I wish this boredom would continue in the future.
However, the world did not leave Leon alone.
A warrior came to Leon.
His armor was torn to pieces, his left arm and right leg were missing, and his seven holy swords were all broken.
And above all else, his companions, who were always with the warrior, were nowhere to be seen.
“Sir Leon. Please help me.”
The hero bowed his head, and tears hotter than blood were flowing endlessly.
