Leon did not answer immediately. Instead, he looked at Rena in surprise before turning to Weiss with equal astonishment.
He had never expected Rena to bring up the matter in front of Weiss. This was supposed to be an issue for the two of them to discuss and resolve. There was no need to drag an outsider into it.

“All right, all right. I won't say any more. Just don't deliberately ignore me. We can't keep going on like this,” Leon quickly raised both hands in surrender. Instead, he actually felt relieved.
