203 – Human Theater at the End-1
As usual, the air flowed in the Reinhardt Mansion to the extent that the secrets revealed at the meeting were indistinct.
Reinhardt’s mind was resilient enough to adapt even to Leonardo’s loss of his memory.
It was for this reason that I was able to comfortably enjoy tea the next morning.
“What is going on all of a sudden? Have your tea ready.”
“Sometimes you just need to catch your breath.”
Even though he obediently accepted the tea time, Leo was busy looking around. He looked all over the place tenaciously enough to hear that his concentration was distracted to say that he had come here for the first time in a while.
“What kind of tea do you like?”
“Tea, please. Mrs.”
As soon as he sat down, Leo stopped looking. As if that wasn’t surprising, Scilica poured tea from the teapot without an attendant.
“Do you need sugar?”
“It’s the first time I’ve eaten in 20 years, and I can’t do that because it’s a waste.”
Leonardo picked up the teacup with one hand, as if to show off his mastery of tea and to show off the tragedy of the future.
The strong scent of black tea filled the small room enjoying tea time. I was sure that perhaps no flower could produce such a dense fragrance.
“Still, everyone is considerate. I didn’t even assassinate him because he had been throwing up since yesterday.”
“I see. I thought you would be angry at me for going against what you taught me.”
Silica was not taken aback and filled her own cup of tea as well. From now on, she’s got to do her job. She’s ‘calm’ to the extent that she does it, but if she can’t even do that, she’s a shame to her pride as Reinhardt’s mistress.
“That’s why I say that to a person who handles all the work that the head of household should do by himself.”
“Similarly, thank you for your consideration.”
Scilica inhaled her tea, naturally smiling her eyes. There were dozens of times like this in the usual tea time, even in the first round.
“…Then shall we try it?”
Leonardo also picked up the teacup and brought it slowly to his mouth. When the cup touches his lips,
“It’s really the best.”
“…Is that so? I don’t think I drank too much…”
Talkang…!
With a small but high sound, Leo set down the teacup. The water surface of the teacup fluctuated as if it were about to overflow, but became stable and calm according to the tension of the surface.
“I was genuinely moved.”
As if to prove that, Leo even gave him a standing ovation. It was like her heart, and she wanted to whistle and even cheer.
“…So delicious…”
“Silica, I didn’t know you would participate. I never thought I would finally get to this stage.”
With that said, Leonardo poured the boiling tea over Scilica.
The wide spread red liquid wanted to rush towards her face.
“The power of love is amazing. Rios.”
The black tea endowed with Rios’ mana twisted back to Leo like a spear.
Assassination through Moisture’s unique magic had already failed, so the next best thing was chosen.
Kaaang!!
As if laughing at the tea attack, Leo added an aura to the teaspoon and countered it. The trajectory of the car, enchanted by wind pressure alone, scattered across the ceiling.
“…Come on out now…!”
Kwaaang!!
And water flowed from the ceiling as if the tap had burst. The small room was filled with water, as if a waterfall had fallen.
“…Rio, are you crazy?! Are you planning to drown your mother as well?!”
“Am I okay?”
Silica was intent on savoring the tea as if she couldn’t even see the water filling up. Even though she was already in a teacup and the water was mixed in the kettle and had already cooled down, she was unmatched in her composure.
“…Huh, isn’t it very different from when I was on the neck swing?”
It was a profane remark, but Leonardo couldn’t help but admire it.
Silica is a delicate woman who can’t fight at all. Even though she could become the leader in such a difficult situation, her face never changed.
“Reinhardt is still alive and well, and I am Reinhardt’s mistress.”
Even in the middle of the conversation, the water rose. The liquid that was already submerged contained plenty of mana.
So far, she has only passed her ankle, but if she goes further than this, it will not end with her movement slowing down.
“…Then…”
Simple logic, drain the water when it fills up.
Leonardo thought so and threw her ax outside her outer wall. She had to go in the direction of the hallway because it was clear that she would avoid the servant as well.
“Chack!!”
As if waiting for the explosion, Chris jumped out from all sides of her, including the direction the explosion came from.
‘It doesn’t matter. Rather, the water will drain better…!’
Kaaang!!
Dodge attacks from all directions with gauntlets made of black stones. She even mobilizes Reinhardt’s breathing method and speeds up to 4 people.
“…Why is the water…”
“Can I afford to worry?”
There was a gap because there was no room. Chris’ twin swords ride Leo’s gauntlets and slash her shoulder.
Even though the blood is flowing, Leo’s nerves are focused on the water that fills the ground.
‘…Rios, you are growing faster than I thought.’
The water filled up while the room was still fixed in its shape. Theoretically, even if the entire room was destroyed, the water would still fill up in the square shape.
The water was already up to my knees. His legs became dull due to the resistance of liquid and mana, and because of the wide and high water, he could not freely use Holy Blood Fighting, let alone Fulgor.
‘…If you push forward with firepower, Silica will get involved… Besides, the dark side is rather brisk.’
Moreover, even in this semi-underwater battle, Chris had no superfluous movements at all.
The reason is Lumine’s sacred art, and the reason why she can fill this amount of water must be because Lumine amplified her ability with divine power.
‘I think my thoughts have sped up to the level of shedding.’
I was strangling Leo in the smartest way. Reinhardt, who knows his peculiar hypocrisy, has been doing the best hostage and best threats he can.
“Then…!”
Leonardo gathered only black stones in one hand without an axe and put the regime down on his ground.
The ground is cracked and a hole is drilled in the floor. No matter how well you maintain your fixation ability, you won’t have the ability to withstand the pincers of shock and gravity.
Pajijik…!
“…Over the mountain is now an avalanche.”
As if to fill a hole, all the water froze to form an ice sheet. Silica dodged it by putting her body on top of her chair, but Leonardo and Chris were blocked in the ice.
“He told me to catch it like that.”
“You are as good at speaking as you have learned.”
As if it went well, Leonardo took the Fulgor out of the subspace. Even if it was a liquid, in a solid state, I didn’t have to worry about Scilica getting electrocuted.
The electric shock was compressed by the spear blade, and heat spurted out like a heat ray. The moment when the blade of the spear melted the ice and cut off the bridge.
“…You must be quite nervous.”
Marken and Gladio rush toward the door. Marken swings his Hwacheong with the momentum to melt Leo’s throat.
‘…It’s not melted yet…’
Evasion is not easy. The water freezes and doesn’t fill up, but if you touch that fire, you’d think you’d be better off drowning in cold water.
Leonardo swung his subspace cloak with divinity and erased the flames.
The direction of throwing was not Marken, but the ice. Because of what happened on the first day, Marken should have a mirror shield.
Roaring!!
The flames, which have shrunk in size, are released from the cloak, melting the ice sheet and evaporating it.
Additional flying flames can now be dealt with at high speed with the addition of Fulgor’s Blitz.
Choo!! Caan!!
All of Chris will first overwhelm at top speed.
By strengthening the body with Holy Blood Fighting and strengthening the nerves with Pulgor at the same time, Chris was able to subdue him.
“… Now…!”
Get it…!
The moment I was about to deal with Marken, I felt Gladio’s presence through the hole in the window.
Leonardo was utterly taken aback when he heard the sound of a sharp spinning sound being thrown.
‘…This is tough…!’
From noble mtl dot com.
By performing somersaults, the shield barely escapes the body. However, it meant that there would be difficulties in avoiding more than public figures.
Roar!!
I tried to learn Leo as it is by flying again from Marken. If he hadn’t pushed the ceiling with the point of his spear and pushed it against the ground, he would have been completely cooked to the core.
Paaang!!
The shield that rotates like a disc flies back to Marken’s mirror shield. It’s not a retaliatory attack, it’s a reflection, so the speed remains the same.
“…Is this old man crazy!?”
The flying shield flew past him and headed straight for Scilica. There is no way to avoid it. If you go that way, your body will be cut in two as you are standing on the chair.
Pajijik…!
Leonardo deflected the flying shield with a thunderbolt javelin covered with lightning. And when Leo saw the shape of the shield, he intuited that his actions were a crucial mistake.
“…Got it!”
Gladio’s shield has the ability to return to its owner. Silica didn’t even have to dodge, the shield went back into Gladio’s hand and struck Leo directly.
Koo-ung…!
The figure of Rios and Lumine filled Leo’s field of vision as he was knocked out even though he protected his neck.
“We won, right?”
“…Ah…It’s out of shape.”
Leo could only express one opinion by raising both hands as he watched the staff being slapped on the neck.
“Surrender, I lost.”
“Win…We won!!!”
That wasn’t what Rios said.
{Survey Lumine?}
As long as the dark circles go all the way down to her peach bones, it’s just a cheer from an adult who couldn’t restrain her joy.
“…Ah…Ah… Sorry.”
She finally realized that the adult she thought she would be able to get a good night’s sleep she had unintentionally cheated on herself.
He was on the decent side compared to the eccentricities of the people here, but considering his usual appearance in the temple, he seemed sadly stained.
[It’s okay. When I think of the deceit he did, I don’t say anything even if I sing a fanfare instead of cheers.]
“My father often said that being able to like winning is a privilege.”
Sage and Ain, who were watching from afar, quickly ran to rectify the situation when they confirmed the declaration of surrender.
Leonardo felt complicated that there was no one who would take his side.
“Okay, let’s get up. It will take quite a while to sort…”
“By the way, after the training is over, is there anything else given?”
The moment Leo shook off the dust and stood up, Rios too enjoyed the victory and naturally asked a question.
Indeed, honor students usually demand compensation according to the results.
“…Huh? Give? What?”
“Ah… Well… We decided to shave our heads at the cost of losing, but when we won, there was no reward.”
Maybe it was the right thing to do. If there is a risk when you lose, isn’t it reasonable to have a reward when you win?
“…Isn’t there such a thing?”
Of course, Leonardo didn’t consider it at all. People’s eyes were cold at the vague answer that showed the extreme of irresponsibility.
Because they did not choose any means and methods to break Leo’s neck somehow, not sleeping or eating for five days.
“Could you say that again?”
Even Lumine looked down at Leo with a merciless gaze.
The fact that even Lumine, the last bastion, was like that meant that others did not even consider the concept of mercy.
“…Ah…Okay. Tell me what you want If I can, I will do it.”
At such a gaze, Leonardo reluctantly took a step back with his spirits down.
“…Then…”
Remembered Rios.
The shocking news that Leo said while vomiting after seeing Eileen.
“Then he is marrying Aileen’s daughter, can you explain what you mean?”
The others were surprised by the sudden talk. It was the same for asking such a story out of the blue, but on the other hand, it was also because they were curious.
If you know it, it is possible to calm Ariasviel…
“I’m so curious about that, okay. Almost marrying Eileen’s daughter-in-law? Can you explain that?”
“…”
Those who thought so were able to recall in silence how complacent they were. In the cold silence, Leonardo glared at them strangely.
“Why? Can you answer me with something other than this? Well… if anything else, except for those who self-proclaimed to be your children…”
The moment Leo, whose senses had become dull, naturally looked back,
“…You want to explain? You mean marriage?”
Ariaspil was smiling brightly with his eyes wide open like Rios.
“…Ah…Hello?”
“Yes, how are you? I want to hear it with you. Is it okay?”
Leonardo had no veto.
For the first time, Leo thought that Ariasviel, who didn’t smile, was cute.
