"What a shame. Originally I wanted to use dragon materials to make some powerful accessories."
Anise said with some frustration, what kind of magical props can be made from a kind of fantasy dragon using its body as material?
She was looking forward to it before.
Leon shrugged and raised his hand to touch Anis's blonde hair.
"Okay, okay, sorry, I accidentally overdid it this time. Next time I meet another dragon, I'll let you enjoy it."
"Ah, that's not what I meant," Anis shook her head quickly.
She hugged Leon's arm with a smile on her face, leaned her head on his shoulder and said.
"Leon-chan doesn't need to apologize. You were so mad because I was hurt. Hehe, I'm really happy. Leon-chan really likes me a lot."
"Isn't that natural? You're my sister."
"Yes... I'm your sister..."
Anis raised the corners of her lips, but her smile seemed a little helpless at the moment, as if she was regretting something irreversible.
But she quickly dropped that expression and resumed her original smile.
"Anyway, leave the magic dragon stone to me, and watch me make the most powerful magic item with it."
"Hmm... Although I'm talking about it now, can you give me half of the magic stone?"
Leon hesitated for a while and finally asked Anis in embarrassment. The blonde princess who was full of ambition now almost fell.
"Leon-chan~"
"Ahem, I'm stuck with this too..."
Leon smiled helplessly.
He hesitated and cut too far, resulting in very few parts of such a large dragon body that could be used.
As the most valuable and intact trophy, the magic stone will definitely attract the pursuit of a certain girl.
[Eta has been pestering me for magic stones recently. If I don't give them, I feel like she's going to do something bad. What the hell... There are a lot of girls around me who have crazy attributes...]
The elf responsible for researching technology, the seventh of the Seven Shadows, made an outrageous request on the spot after Leon defeated Dvalin a few years ago.
Although she was rejected by Leon at first, Leon later discovered that this girl even tried to collect dragon blood with a super thick syringe while Dvalin was sleeping...
In recent days, Eta, who always stayed at the headquarters to conduct experiments with dragon materials, even went to the castle and spent the whole day holding Leon's legs to ask for materials with puppy eyes.
"Master, can you give me the dragon materials?
"I will definitely make super-powered props, so please give it to me~"
"Ooooo, master, please, just a little, just a little~"
In the end, Alpha ran and dragged her back, but when she returned to the fortress, she was crying and fussing, begging for materials.
In the end, even Alpha became impatient and expected Leon to make some concessions to that girl.
"Originally, it was the dragon that Leon defeated. I have no objection to whoever you want to give the materials to, huh~"
"Nee-san, if you have no objection, please don't take the magic sword with so much killing intent. You also know Eta."
"To know is to know. Although I very much recognize that girl's enthusiasm as a researcher, but... I feel that she is very cunning!"
Anis clenched her fists, feeling a little jealous for some reason, because the elf girl was able to get along with Leon without any sense of limits or worries.
Leon scratched his head in confusion, thinking that women are really not understood by men even if they read many books on female psychology.
He has read dozens of books about women, but every woman in the world is a different book. It would be strange if he managed to finish reading it...
At best, I can only analyze them all in general terms.
"Ahh~ Okay~ I got it, I'll share some materials with that girl."
"Thank you. I'll have Eta write a thousand-word thank you later and send it to you."
"Haha, then there's no need... Or rather, yes, I'll look forward to it." Anis changed his words.
Leon was also looking forward to seeing what kind of magical props these two will make. He is sure that they will be two completely different styles.
Although Anis is always making a mess, the magical accessories she makes have basically stable performance.
Eta also appears to be very random, but... in fact, it is very random! She will only think about how to maximize the effect, and will never consider safety or anything else.
"Let's talk about this later. I was called to the palace today, so there must be something going on."
"Yes, but I can estimate roughly."
"Is father finally giving up the throne?"
Anis felt very moved.
Soon there will be less of your father on that family throne... Well, never mind~
Instead, she hopes her father comes down soon. Now she wants to see Leon wearing a royal robe and a crown sitting in that beautiful chair. He will definitely be very handsome!
In front of the king's office.
"Dad, we're here."
"Okay, you can come in." Orphans replied
Leon and Anis pushed the door and entered.
In the past, there were only the king and the prime minister in the study room, but today there was one more person. The moment he saw this person, Anis almost jumped and immediately hid behind Leon, covering his buttocks and trembling.
"You're finally here, Anis and Leon."
"M-m-m-m-mom?! Why are you here? Are you still alive?!"
"Of course I'm still alive. As for why I'm here, I don't think there's any need to explain. With such important events happening one after another in the country, it's impossible for me to do diplomacy with peace of mind, so I returned to Palletia."
The woman sitting next to the king said this.
She is clearly over forty years old, but she seems to have remained young forever, without a trace of time. She is even shorter than Anis, only 1.6 meters tall at most.
Her long brown hair is tied in a three-strand braid, and her face is very cute. The blonde princess's face is undoubtedly inherited from this woman, along with this physique.
If mother and daughter were together, they would definitely be mistaken for sisters... She would still be the younger sister.
She is the queen of this kingdom.
The person Anis fears most.
If the king punishes her, Anise will choose the power to escape, but if this woman punishes her... even this unprecedented princess can only lie down on the chair, lift her buttocks and prepare to be slapped.
She is Sylphine Maise Palettia.
Although she is a loving mother, she was a woman who personally entered the battlefield when she was young and established great military feats!
"Ahem! Anyway, hurry up and sit down. I'm here to see you today for something important."
Orphans showed sympathy for Anis. Leon could escape what he said, but his stupid daughter would never escape the queen's hands... The king was rejoicing.
He has already reported to his wife all the atrocities committed by Anis some time ago, and when the meeting is over, he will personally hand over the belt to the queen.
Idiot daughter, you are dead today! Hahahaha!
"Dad, you are smiling crookedly, you are so unflattering."
"Ah, ahem, actually, the main reason you came here this time is to discuss Leon's ascension to the throne."
"!!!"x2
(End of chapter)
Believe it or not, it was only now that I realized I was spelling the name of the kingdom wrong. I was writing Palletia, but the correct one is Palettia.
Give me some power stones there you go~😉
