Chapter 45: We’re Step-Siblings After All
Leo agreed with a nod but responded, ’’I can do it, but might need Empress Helena to show me more about healing magic, you see I was injured while fighting the Demons, they have some poison that ate away at my body.’’
When Dorian heard this, he smiled as he turned to his wife. ’’Do you mind helping our hero out, my love?’’
Helena nodded with a big smile. ’’That’s fine. I can do it first thing in the morning. I’ve got a meeting with Amara soon,’’ she replied.
’’Good, is that fine with you, Leo?’’ Dorian asked.
He nodded, causing them to thank him before leaving, but as they did he spoke up, "Dorian, could you assign the four knights to me? I like their skills.’’
When the emperor heard this, he agreed, ’’That’s not a problem. I was going to assign you heroes some protection for when you’re out exploring.’’
Following that, Dorian and Helena left after saying goodbye as a group of maids appeared at in the entrance foyer. Leo quickly noticed Luna and Ava Thompson looking in his direction with curious expressions.
Roxy was making her way over to him with an excited expression. ’’You’ve caught most of the class’s attention. Now we can have some fun with the taken girls.’’
Leo chuckled before the group was led to the dining room, where dinner was being served. While walking Luna appeared beside him with a beautiful smile as she whispered, ’’It’s good that you’re safe babe, everyone had been worried when we heard the news.’’
’’It was some trouble, but at least I got stronger from the experience and saw the outside world,’’ he replied to the blue-haired woman. ’’Let’s just say it’s chaotic out there with all the monsters roaming the land.’’
Luna nodded also as she spoke, ’’I heard that there were Demons, our trainers have been teaching us stuff before we leave the city,’’ she said while the group entered the dining hall.
