Chapter 699: Chapter 326 Long Time No See_3

Although Leon deeply wants to trust the counterpart of his friend from the parallel world, the differences in their life experiences and growth must be considered.

Kovis didn’t object, regardless of the type, this protective magic that doesn’t distort the body and can protect oneself from any angle is a treasure sought after by countless mages in the Empire.

The premise is, that what the other party says is true.

At the tap of his finger on the desk, the soundproof barrier dissipated instantly, and Kovis loudly summoned the disciple outside to bring him the scrolls for recording.

A short while later, the door opened, and a young woman wearing a robe adorned with alchemy runes entered, carrying pen and ink scrolls.

Seeing the newcomer, Kovis’s expression softened considerably: “You were awakened too… It’s fine, go back and rest.”

“You suddenly jumped out of bed, I was just a bit worried, you know.” The girl stuck out her tongue and put down the paper and pen she brought.

Leon looked at the two whose attitudes towards each other were intimate, and felt a bit surprised.

“… Miss Milena?” Although she looked a few years older, her appearance was still recognizable, wasn’t she the little medical officer from Avalon?

Mirana glanced over, assessing this unfamiliar guest, and asked in confusion: “Sir, do you know me?”

Leon hesitantly nodded.

He originally thought Pilireno had been dead for over a decade in this world, and since he’d never been to the Western Continent, he feared he would never see those poor women who were gifted to Pilireno by the Felcon family.

Kovis noted Leon’s reaction and couldn’t help raising an eyebrow, gesturing for Milena to return.

Leon took the paper and pen handed to him by Kovis, dipped the pen in ink, and while writing down the principles and learning method of Quenching Life Technique, he couldn’t resist gossiping: “Acro, you and Milena are…?”

“She is my wife.” Kovis watched as Leon’s pen smoothly wrote out a series of complex terms and runes, his expression growing serious, not bothering to correct the familiar friend’s address.

“So you have this marriage fate…” Leon didn’t ask more about the other’s private matters, turned his attention back to the paper, and sighed slightly: “I’ll remember this, when I return, I’ll surely find a chance to set you up.”

Listening to this strange remark, Kovis’s handsome face couldn’t help but wrinkle slightly.

He realized that in the other world, he seemingly hadn’t become partners with Milena.

This feeling was certainly strange and unsettling.

“By the way, since even Milena is with you…” Leon suddenly paused his pen and looked at Kovis: “…Then have you met Elena, Martha, Vanessa, Sally, Raya, or Treya?”

Kovis’s focused gaze had to move away from the paper.

“Lady Vanessa is currently serving as my aide and adviser, as for the others…”

Thinking it over, he felt there was nothing worth hiding, and truthfully replied: “The other five ladies and young ones, on the night of the Felcon Young Master’s wedding six years ago, were taken from my place at midnight by a poet, rumored to have stolen Miss Magreina, the bride.”

“Galliard?” Leon confirmed.

“It should be this name, as it’s written on the local wanted notice.” Kovis recalled that mysterious and strange poet and nodded: “Did this occur in your world as well?”

Noting that the Galliard of the parallel world was equally proficient, Leon thoroughly relaxed about his friends hanging in suspense.

Turning back to his writing, Leon couldn’t help but joke: “You knew he stole Felcon’s bride and still let him take them away without concern?”

“I phrased it incorrectly, it wasn’t taking away, it was directly whisking away.”

Kovis said helplessly: “He could appear silently in my heavily guarded workshop to talk to me and vanish upon exit, how could I have any objection?

Besides, it was only during the day that I found out they were missing, fortunately, after a long while, I received letters of reassurance from Elena and others sent from afar, Galliard, he truly is a mysterious and strange individual.”

“Indeed mysterious, though you needn’t worry about his character, he also had a notorious reputation in my world yet was practically a helpful ‘ranger’, it seems he didn’t change after switching worlds.”

Leon glancing at Kovis laughed: “At least he called on you personally before whisking them away.”

Kovis frowned, shaking his head: “I don’t think his abrupt statement that night resembled a greeting, even now I don’t understand the meaning behind his words.”

“Oh? What did he say?”

Leon, speaking nonchalantly, switched to a new sheet, and with perfect strokes carefully depicted the partial demon rune and Dharma Seal of the Quenching Life Technique.

“He said… long time no see, Your Excellency… Pandora?”

The pen tip suddenly halted.

Chill swept up Leon’s spine to his scalp.
