Chapter 152: I'm Lizanna
Using his minimap feature, Leon found his new house without any problem.
He also saw his carriage and horses, so Leon expected everyone to have a good time talking about their plans to furnish their rooms with furniture of their preference.
But after opening the doors, Leon blinked three times as the first thing he saw was a foreign woman.
Thanks to his Book Of Monsters, Leon discerned that she was a wolf girl. Her casual clothes had set her wolf ears and tail free, so Leon didn't doubt his thoughts about her race. This muscular girl was kinda similar to his dragon maid, as she revealed her muscles by wearing a sleeveless shirt and short pants.
Her legs and arms seemed like powerful and ripe weapons.
Leon would love to compare her back with Alexandra's, as those training maniacs had such a nice curve from behind, but this wolf woman's dark blue hair was messily tangled behind her back, covering most of her back, only leaving just a little part of her slightly tanned skin.
But enough of this woman!
Alexandra's expression warned Leon that some argument had occurred in the new house.
"What's happening?" Leon stepped forward and took Alexandra's side, looking into Liz's eyes.
Those dark blue hues had been narrowed and flashing with dangerous light that Leon felt wary of. Her level was nothing to scoff at, and she was surely one of the high-level existences that Heaven Library Guild loved to work with. It was odd to see her here so fast, though.
Leon expected some problems to visit him at least a few months later.
"She's Lizanna, my friend. Though we haven't seen each other for a long time, this girl is still the same. She becomes so hard to talk with when she believes in something from the bottom of her heart. Let alone talking with her, it's hard to convince her that she's wrong, too." Surprisingly, Celes parted her lips and explained what had happened.
Hearing how this wolf woman had visited Celes as her friend, happy to see her back, Leon decided to not say what had rolled onto his tongue and took a different approach with her. "In other words, you believe my dragon maid has some intel about The Black Dragon? If she says she doesn't know his plans or location, it must be it."
The wolf woman gritted her teeth, glowering at Leon. "Order her to work with me. She's famous for her cruelty, and The Black Dragon will surely take her into his ranks. I'll use her to find that piece of shit and solve our issues."
"No." Leon shook his head.
Liz squinted her eyes more, making them seem like maddened person's slits. "I'm not asking you. I'm forcing you to give me her."
"If being level three hundred was enough to demand everything, you wouldn't have problems, to begin with." Leon tilted his head and narrowed his eyes as well. "You can demand stuff, but that will make me dislike you more. And you're asking for my dragon maid with whom I'm comfortable. No matter what you say and do, I won't give her to you."
Liz didn't like those words.
In her current state, which was more feral because of the dragon's appearance, her eyes and mind were muddled, so she couldn't properly see through Leon's words. He just irked her. And since he mentioned her level, Liz decided to show him the gap between level three hundred and a mere ninety.
She disappeared.
Leon stood calm.
A familiar but quite forgotten feeling spread on his cheek. It was the uncomfortable feeling he'd felt a few times at the beginning of his life in another world. That instinct helped him cope against his enemies, dealing with unpredictable attacks and skills Leon wasn't aware of.
Leon raised his arm just in time, catching Liz's fist.
[You have lost 240 134 HP!]
His bones cracked — everyone heard it. Louise and the other girls became tense and jumped to Leon's side, only to see him sweeping his hand behind, telling them to not come close.
"A few cracks won't kill me." Leon said, once again gazing into Liz's eyes, whose hues had been rocking ever since Leon had caught her fist. "It's bizarre how people can die when their health points fall below zero… If you attacked my other arm and then limb in the same way, I'd simply die from health point loss…."
People could live without limbs, yet in the Freya World, because of the system, people could die in such a way, too.
Liz explained, bemused. "Your heart would just pop."
Surviving a high-level punch — just catching it — was so unheard in the Freya World that Liz's feral state popped like the heart would upon losing all health points, and she saw Leon in a different light, amazed. He was such a different breed that she felt like mating with him and giving her whole body to him.
Those were her natural instincts of yearning for someone whose talent could provide her with a lot of pleasure and joy and a better future.
And that was when he was level ninety!
If he was around her level, he'd be able to force her to bed with just a gaze alone!
Liz was such a simple woman!
"I can go for a second punch if you still want my dragon maid." Leon hammered her heart with those words, as his voice sounded as though he would never give Liz any chance to lick him!
"No longer interested." Liz returned to her previous spot and looked at everyone else. "It was nice until I saw Blue Thanatos. Good for you two that you've found such a strong man. I thought you'd need me, Celes, but you gotta stay with your beloved and make him addicted to you. The same goes for you, foxy. As for me, I'll be gone soon. If this dragon can't help me, I'll find more in the dark guilds. Good night."
Everyone hovered their eyes on Liz's back.
She stopped in the door's frame and looked at Leon. "Handsome! I'm Lizanna! Remember that name. Only use that name to call me. Otherwise, I won't answer your calls."
Louise and Celes looked at her as though she was a different person.
Liz left the house and its property, minding her steps. She didn't want to move like some vulgar…
