Chapter 123 Be Careful With Your Weapon, Master!
Chapter 123: Be careful with your weapon, Master!
Well, now that Leon became much wealthier, he didn't hold back with his money for his girls. Alexandra didn't wear simple clothes, either, as Leon decided to reward her with a maid outfit from the system shop. She was his maid, so he paid her monthly, and it seemed like she received her first bonus — the maid clothes.
She had her muscular curves wrapped in a black dress with frills. She covered her front with a wide white apron and protected her feet in black and flat shoes. For some reason, Leon insisted on her wearing kneesocks, which had given Celes a glimpse into her master's tastes.
Celes and Alexandra were naturally by Leon's side. They were on their way to level up a little, or rather, to help Leon catch up to their levels.
"I will switch to something similar soon. I can give you a hint and tell you that it's related to my other crafting class." Leon replied to Celes' inquiry, tightly grasping his chains.
Those reminded him of Louise and what she had gone through. He used them as his weapon and also as a cure for Louise's fears, helping her cope with her past. But now, he no longer wanted to use them as his weapon and decided to change them for something else.
"Your other crafting class?" Celes pondered over her master's words while holding his arm, not wanting to waste any second now that Louise was on her way back to their party.
Leon dropped his peculiar glance at her. "Have you thought about a combo skill?"
"Since we can form a skill through our bond, I want to maximize its effects and usage. I want a skill I can use often and independently and combine it with Master to receive different effects." Recalling their talk from the split spirit world's event, Celes wanted a skill she could frequently use to become better at and expand it further with her beloveds by her side.
It wasn't like Celes wanted to cheat and leverage Leon's powers for herself. But depending on someone too much was like a recipe for disaster.
Leon knew and treasured that, so he was on board with Celes' ideas.
There was nothing better than an independent girl, right?
"I have a lot of freedom when it comes to my weapon and will soon form it, so you can wait for that and then think of our combo skill more. But even if I have no weapon, I feel like I can combine the nine fire spirits art with your bloody threads and give you more devastating powers. You lack mass area skill, right?" Leon warmly smiled and asked his vampiress.
Celes could argue here, but when it came to the 'devastating' and 'mass area' effect, then her master was right.
She cutely nodded.
Leon continued his talk. "So the idea is that you'll spread your bloody threads silently around our enemies, and I'll light them up. Even though I have just nine of those spirits, I think your talent will help me split those equally in every thread. I still remember how you summoned countless bats and used them to scour the land. It was awesome. Because of that talent, you quickly responded to my call and easily entered my heart."
Celes' lips curved up on her own. "More than a talent, Master."
"Haha, I know... You can also go sexy mode and summon that fast and strong bat to spread the threads… Maybe that bat will be able to carry nine fire spirits and get more offensive power? Well, we can try a lot of skills and ideas. I look forward to that, too." Leon chuckled at Celes, whose face lit up more than expected.
Celes had talked with him about her new skills and her usage and even showed them off. And while Leon didn't think she went all red because he called her sexy, he felt like there was more to it.
Remembering her madness, Leon imagined Celes going mad over the succubi's perverted words. "How cute."
And it was cute for him! Even though Leon imagined Celes crazily screaming that no one could compare to her master and that those succubi were nothing more than disgusting perverts, Leon ignored that Celes went into a perverted mode, too, and thought of her as an adorable creature full of love toward him.
It seemed like Celes sensed that as she controlled her breath and scarlet blush, asking another question. "I'm fine with you calling that sexy mode, Master… Anyway, what about that divine sword within your bloodline?"
"It's empty and free to evolve to suit my tastes." Leon bluntly replied.
And while it seemed like he didn't want to talk about that sword, Celes knew it was important, so she carried on with the topic against her master's wish. "It's empty and void of any energy. I'd say it's pristine and clean now, so you can erase all your experiences with it and wield that weapon, Master. Don't be so petty."
Leon rolled his eyes and replied with a slightly scrunched face. "After calling it his 'second sword' and exactly knowing how he boosted its strength and formed techniques with it, I'll need more time to grasp the divine sword's hilt. I won't back down or waste that weapon — that I promise. But because of that man and his words about thrusting, I feel like I'll say something stupid when I meet a swordsman. His swordsmanship was 'good', and his thrusting was 'superb' because he thrust his little wee wee into women regularly, you know? How fucking childish."
Celes burst out laughing so much that ravens screeched and ran away from her.
Alexandra tightly shut her eyes, covered her lips with her right hand, and laughed.
"Isn't it inevitable for you to be the same, or at least a little similar in this regard, Master? Be careful with your plans, or you'll say cringe lines, too." Celes warned her master.
And as Leon thought about his plans, he blanked for a moment, then smirked.
That smile heated up two gorgeous ladies by his side.
