Chapter 73: Angelica(2)
Seeing the prince and his foolish companions treat Angelica with disdain, Leon decided not to delay his meeting with her any longer. He resolved to speak to her right now, while they were still in the dungeon. Leon knew that Angelica was passionately fascinated by everything related to adventurers. For her, the perfect date wasn't about dining in a fancy restaurant but exploring a mysterious dungeon.
Noticing how Angelica stood alone, sad and abandoned by the prince because of Marie, Leon decided to cheer her up. Olivia, who was part of his dungeon-clearing group, seemed to share the same sentiment. Together, they headed toward Angelica.
Approaching her, Leon confidently said,
"Would you care to join me?"
Angelica flinched upon hearing a voice behind her. Slowly turning to see who had addressed her, she met Leon's gaze with surprise.
"Oh... Viscount Leon Bartfort!" she exclaimed. "First of all, good day to you."
Her words were accompanied by a respectful bow, displaying impeccable manners.
"And secondly," she continued, slightly embarrassed, "could you repeat what you just said?"
Leon smiled softly.
