Chapter 69: Two Girls and One Boy, Riding Together (2)
In the end…
Leo actually ended up riding with Miss Skuld and Miss Kalian, the three of them together…
Miss Kalian sat in front of him, Miss Skuld sat behind him, and Leo was stuck in the middle.
This was tough for the white pegasus beneath him, who kept whinnying.
And that silly bird Nono was still circling around the three of them, constantly making silly laughing sounds.
I really want to make it into a sword handle.
"Oh, this is truly a crime," Leo sighed.
He understood why Miss Kalian would come to him to share a ride; it was simple, because among this group, aside from Leo and Miss Skuld, all the other leaders were nobles, and the highest rank was only Mr. Carter, the Viscount.
In the strictly ranked Dawn Empire, each religious group has its own order, and nobles have their own class discrimination.
As a princess, Kalian could never lower herself to ride with a Viscount.
This could lead to a series of public opinion issues.
Even if Kalian doesn’t care about this, she must consider what consequences it would bring to Viscount Carter.
This is the result of the social system.
Therefore, only Leo and Skuld, who are not part of the noble system yet have noble status as members of the Order Sect White Cavalry Army, are Kalian’s best choice.
And Miss Skuld’s obvious hostility was certainly felt by Miss Kalian.
So, she came to find Mr. Leo.
Perhaps there are other charming reasons, but Leo was not clear about those.
However, Miss Kalian probably did not expect things to develop to this extent.
Leo’s thoughts were wandering, yet he felt the female mechanic in front of him stiffly leaning back against him, sinking into his embrace.
This surprised Leo a little.
Miss Kalian’s figure was completely hidden by her black trench coat, and only after their contact did Leo realize how "well-proportioned" she was.
Whether it was her slightly stiff hips or her incredibly slender waist, Leo couldn’t help but feel them a bit more.
"I’m sorry, Mr. Leo, I… I really haven’t ridden a horse much… My thighs and arms hurt so much now. So… I’m sorry for bothering you."
"Don’t say that, you have done a great job. As a princess, you have fulfilled your duties."
"Thank you…" Kalian’s face turned red as she looked down.
"Oh, Mr. Leo, I am so tired too. I have fought too many enemies these past few days." Miss Skuld, not wanting to lose, lay on Leo’s back, her bosom pressing tightly against his shoulder blades, rubbing back and forth.
Her thighs pressed right against Leo’s bottom, completely sticking together.
"…" Leo’s mouth twitched, he was really close to losing control, and he comforted, "Knight Luna, you have worked hard too. Thanks to your protection recently."
"Is that so… No, no, I should thank Mr. Leo."
The team set off again.
Leo and his two companions were in the middle of the group, and the soldiers marching looked at them with eyes that showed both envy and a hint of a teasing smile.
There’s no way around it, if another man were riding with two beautiful young ladies, these soldiers would probably be extremely jealous.
But Leo’s plans and intelligence have already won over this group of soldiers.
Besides feeling envy, they felt more of a blessing for him.
And some also felt regret…
After all, everyone knows that Order Cultists cannot marry or have children.
Because the journey was not short, they marched quickly. The female mechanic truly felt as he said, tired all over, nearly putting all her strength on Leo.
Skuld also became more and more playful, occasionally blowing gently in Leo’s ear, and when others weren’t paying attention, she would lick his earlobe, having a great time.
"Are you okay?" Enduring Skuld’s teasing, Leo leaned close to Kalian’s ear and whispered, "Do you want me to go a bit slower?"
"N-no… it’s fine, we need to hurry and leave here." Kalian’s face was completely covered in blush, "But, Mr. Leo, could you move your weapon a bit? It’s too hard and uncomfortable."
Saying this, the female mechanic wiggled her hips a bit.
Leo gave a苦笑 and said, "…I will try my best, madam."
"Try your best?" Kalian paused for a moment, then finally realized what that meant, "Alright, okay."
At this moment, the pink hue finally became bright on her skin, spreading to her ears and neck.
"Oh," Leo sighed.
The internet was not lying to him; men really loved to point guns at beautiful women.
He elbowed Miss Skuld, trying hard to calm himself and change the subject, "Miss Kalian, I haven’t asked you yet, why did you become a believer of the Mechanical Sect?"
This was the most puzzling thing for Leo.
The princess of North Land had actually gone to believe in the Mechanical Sect, which was seen as heresy by the people of the Dawn Empire.
If this news got out, the public reaction would be unprecedented.
"Hmm… because I want to seek the truth." Kalian thought for a moment and said, "The truth that humanity can understand."
"Truth?" Leo blinked; he had often heard this word in his past life, but after coming to this world, it seemed to have vanished, "So, have you found it? What exactly is the truth?"
"Of course not." Kalian shook her head, "The knowledge of the Castella Continent has gaps. The texts we can find now are all from this thousand years. As for materials from a thousand years ago, even if they exist, we cannot understand those words."
"…" Leo did not speak, but he was very curious about this matter.
The thousand-year mark,
Is exactly when the Dawn Empire was established, worshipping the original God of Fire.
Is there a necessary connection between this and the disappearance of history?
"But…" Kalian was organizing her words.
"But?"
"However, we believe that truth is a door." Kalian’s eyes shone with admiration, "My teachers and I believe that, whether it is a god, an ancient dragon, or any form of life that once ruled this world, they all gained their power from behind that door."
"If we can open that door, then humanity will also possess that power."
"If we open the door, humanity can also have that power…" Leo murmured, recalling the wings that blocked out the sun, the terrifying vertical slits of the eyes, and the overwhelming strength.
That is the power of the ancient dragon.
The proud Knight Lennon, a sixth-tier warrior, one of the strongest in the Dawn Empire, could not even withstand a casual blow from the ancient dragon.
Is such incredible power truly within humanity’s reach?
If he wants to obtain that kind of power, what must he do?
"Hmph, Miss Kalian, please do not spread such heretical ideas in front of us." Leo remained silent, but Miss Skuld coldly replied, "Initial Fire created human civilization; humanity can only borrow power from the gods."
"What you call truth is merely an unprovable fallacy."
