Tsk... I fell into a trap!
Amidst the terrified gazes of countless Dream Realm Creatures, Leon, who had fought his way from the deepest part of Paradise Lost back to his own body, abruptly opened his eyes and glared at Prince Vernon, who was sneaking up on him.
"What are you doing?"
"Ah!"
Startled by Leon's slightly annoyed look, Prince Vernon couldn't help but shiver. He hurriedly explained:
"I didn't... I just saw you suddenly fall, so I wanted to help you up..."
"..."
"Sorry."
Looking at the middle-aged man before him with fear in his eyes, Leon fell momentarily silent. He apologized for his baseless anger, then gently comforted Queen Aerial, who was on the verge of tears, and reactivated the effect of the Soft Rice emblem.
Previously, he had said as much as he could, but the chief refused to disclose her plans. This indicated that what she intended to do was bound to be rather troublesome, possibly even quite "taboo."
