Chapter 141 Frozen Leon!

Chapter 141: Frozen Leon!

Leon took Celes' hand and brought her up.

It was time to return and have their adventure continue. But before the couple left the best spot and let others use it too, Leon fished out a small box. And while the box was of poor quality, what was inside was the opposite.

"Just peek inside."

Following Leon's words, Celes opened it faintly and looked inside. She narrowed her eyes and closed the box after just a few seconds, widely smiling at her beloved.

"I'll tell you when I have these on me."

"Sure."

Leon could tell that his vampiress couldn't wait to try on the panties he had made for her. He took her hand and strolled down the hill, slowly going back to his carriage.

And while it seemed like a usual walk of lovers, Leon didn't know what Celes had decided.

Would she let his hand go and act as if nothing had happened?

At last, it was time to see her choice.

"We're back." Leon called out his dragon maid and adorable fox.

Else also hid her book in her inventory and looked up.

Everyone saw Leon returning with Celes holding his hand. She also appeared different, and her eyes gleamed with a lot of love and affection, telling them that this vampiress was taken. Of course, Else didn't understand that, and instead, her eyes twinkled at the red necklace Leon had given his vampiress.

"It's so beautiful and looks good on you, Celes!" Else commented aloud.

The red necklace was the finest piece Leon had found in many system shops. It wasn't an item meant to be an additional accessory that would help his beloved in her adventure back to her prime level and find her sworn sisters. It was simply proof of Leon's confession and his love for her.

Leon believed that the red half-moon inspired the craftsman to create that item.

It was also close to a neck mess, as a lot of Celes' collarbone had been covered by that necklace, drawing an impossible to not notice the red moon.

It glimmered as though reflecting Leon's love.

"I need a mirror." Celes impatiently wanted to see the entire of herself with her neck adorned.

Else nodded and wheeled to the dragon maid. This little girl already felt like one of Leon's party and someone around Leon's status. In her case, it was quite inevitable, and no one felt like putting that kid in the right place too.

Celes let her beloved's hand go and left him with Louise, who had been gawking at them with narrowed eyes.

Before the vampiress disappeared in the carriage, Louise shifted her eyes to her and parted her lips. "Congratulations."

"Thanks." Celes smiled at her, then looked behind at her master, wishing him good luck.

And with that, Leon and Louise became alone.

They stared at themselves for a while. Leon wanted to speak, but Louise's cold eyes flashed with many thoughts and feelings, making her even colder. He inferred that his adorable fox became too conflicted and that her heart ached too much with the jealousy.

It was normal.

A normal consequence of having a harem.

Leon had to face that.

He wouldn't turn around or whisper sweet words and promises.

He stood and ensured Louise knew he was there, waiting for her.

"I've changed so much, Master." Louise finally said something, her painful tone scratching Leon's heart. "The vampiress was right. There's too much coldness within me. When you aren't with me, I slowly revert and let the more impactful memories take over me."

"You haven't left me, Louise." Leon replied, deeply staring into those cold hues.

"I have lied to you, though." Louise formed a weak smile and blamed herself.

But to her surprise, Leon laughed. "You mean your promise to become friends with Else, only to think of yourself and me instead?"

Louise bit her lips and clenched her little hands, then heavily nodded.

She felt like smiling and doing a lot of stuff for her master. But when he was gone, and Louise was tasked with something else, she couldn't help but slowly change. When they returned with Else in their team, Louise had fought together with her master, and he had been satisfied with their results.

They leveled up and saved a life.

So when Leon talked about Else, Louise swore to become good friends with her. After that, she unconsciously ignored that little girl and thought more of herself instead.

She was forcing herself to look after that girl.

"I'm selfish." Louise shook her head. "I'm also a liar. I lied to you, Master… I love you so much that it hurts me. And now that I saw you with vampiress, it hurt me even more. My change, my memories, and my real self slowly burning out… I have much more coldness waiting to return, Master! The Nine-Tailed Star! I know that you need more than just me… I know that because the vampiress helped you already when I was gone… But my next memories might be too much and make me scheme to kill everyone you love so that you only evoke warmth within me, not anyone else."

Leon deeply inhaled. "I'm reaping what I've sown, right?"

"…"

"See? It's not your fault, Louise. It's mine. I should have been loving you instead of trying to see whether you're a woman I want to be for life. I knew from the beginning that you need me and that I also need you. I was blind. I was so blind that I've caused you so much pain." Leon walked to Louise and took her into his nest. "I cuddled with you like a friend would, even while sucking your blood. But you're a woman that needs more than a friendly hug. You need a man whose embrace evokes warmth, love, and lust. Those desires will balance out the coldness within you."

Louise disappeared in her master's hug as he draped over her. And then, Leon repeated that move from the day he'd sucked her blood for the first time.

"That ass is mine." Leon spoke in a lustful tone, tightly grasping Louise's ass cheek.

Louise's heart attacked her from the inside.

"The adorable fox within you is mine." Leon let her ass go, only to fondle her heart now. "I'll enter your heart together with you and confess to every Louise within you."

Louise absentmindedly gazed at her master, her tears melting her eyes.

"And every Louise will fall in love with me." Leon spoke with so much confidence that Louise felt like falling in love again, exactly what he'd just declared.

She panted in his arms, feeling like every part of her body slowly melted into him. "I'm already in love, Master…."

"It's not a confession yet, Louise. I'll make another memorable day for you soon." Leon blew those words into Louise's fox ear, making her smile. "And I'll go against my principles now. You see, I've noticed how you and Celes went against your wishes and did your best to become friends with Else. She's with us only because of me. I'm sure you two have also thought of my desire to create a family. I was so touched when seeing you two interacting with her. That's one of the reasons I decided to finally cross the line and officially make you two mine. I couldn't really decide who should be first and like… I had so many troubles, alright? I don't want you two to have the same confession, I don't want you two to lose your first time in a threesome… I want you to be a part of my harem but still feel treasured more than any other woman in the world. It's too much to ask, but I'll aim for it."

Louise clenched his clothes and forced him to look straight into her eyes. "I'm selfish. I couldn't care less about the order. Just love me… Love me… Love me more and more… I don't want to be alone… I want to be loved!"

"I also hate being alone, Louise." Leon smiled and leaned down, rubbing his nose with Louise's. "And I want to love you in many ways, so wait for tomorrow. Pick the best clothes, comb your heart and tails, and wait for me. I'll surely cuddle those fluffy weapons."

"I'll wait for you, Master…." Louise sweetly spoke in a voice she didn't believe she could muster.

It was so melodious that Leon froze and gawked at her.

"Hehe! I made you freeze without that coldness." Louise adorably smiled, her heart beaming.
