The Fester Empire is a superpower in the East, where the "Goddess of Justice" is widely worshipped, while in the West the "Goddess of Wisdom" is worshipped. In addition, there is the "Lord of the Earth" in the South and the "True Creator" of the dragon race in the North.
In addition, there is the "Progenitor of the Moon" worshipped by the vampires, the "Goddess of Storms" worshipped by the elves, the "God of Love" worshipped by the succubuses, and the "Sun God" worshipped by the orcs.
Then there are all sorts of other gods like the god of sleep, the god of wind, the god of fire, and the god of gambling, who also have many followers. However, most of these are considered heretics and belong to cults.
"This is where my knowledge is lacking. I don't know either. Maybe... this is what happens when a family declines. It's like a family that was very wealthy. People in that era would naturally know about them, but later they declined and didn't make any outstanding contributions for the world, so they were forgotten by later generations?"
Philippa shared her understanding.
"That should be the case."
Leon didn't understand either, but Philippa's explanation made sense, so he decided to assume it was true for now.
That's probably the most likely explanation.
After all, only a little over two hundred years had passed since Leon's grandfather successfully rebelled and established the Fchester Empire. People had basically forgotten the former masters of this land of Fchester, and hardly anyone mentioned it anymore.
The family that was replaced by the Hoyle family once stood at the top of the world, inspiring fear in countless beings.
can only say,
Time can heal all wounds, that's true. In the long run, all the traces you leave behind will be worn away in the dust of time, as if you had never been here at all.
History, oh history, it really can only be cold words.
“Your Excellency, Miss Philippa, may I have this tattered book?”
Leon grinned and tried to ingratiate himself.
"This... this doesn't seem to be of much use to you. Although I know you are a superhuman, I guess your profession can't be a Demon Blade Master."
Philippa was puzzled. "The training systems for different professions are different. I think you must know that, teacher."
"Of course I understand that, but before becoming a demigod in this system, one can change jobs."
"Leon replied."
"Teacher, do you want to become a Demon Blade Master?"
"I do have some thoughts on this; I don't think being a mage is suitable for me."
Leon has been summarizing the various reasons why his cultivation is progressing slowly these past few days.
He is still completely bewildered by the goddess of justice's speech that day, to the point that he no longer dares to pray to her.
"Then you shouldn't switch to the Demon Blade Master class. This system has been lost, and it would be extremely difficult for you to advance."
Philippa advised.
"This... I know what I'm doing, but this is my future, why are you in such a hurry than I am?"
Leon joked.
"Hiss, I just can't stand the stupidity in the world."
Philippa arrogantly crossed her arms.
"Furthermore, I have already decided to add you to my harem. You will become my male concubine in the future, serving me by my side. Of course, I will take care of that."
"That's alright, anyway, I'll still have to change jobs eventually. After all, the first thing you'll probably do on the night you come of age is turn me into your blood servant, and the most suitable cultivation system for vampires is the Moonlight System."
Leon grinned. Knowing that Philippa didn't have the ability to embrace him now, he felt he could try to be a little more arrogant.
Of course, if Philippa comes of age in a few days and he hasn't escaped the Thorn Forest yet, then Leon will only be turned into a vampire and then pinned down by Miss Philippa, begging for mercy.
"Ah."
Philippa didn't respond, she just smiled.
"Fine, you can have it if you want it."
Finally, Philippa produced the tattered notebook.
After receiving the notebook from Philippa, Leon carefully held it in his arms.
"Give this back to you."
Philippa glanced at Leon, paused for a moment, then lightly tapped the pretty bracelet on her right hand with the tip of her left finger. After the bracelet emitted a flash like a camera click, a wooden box appeared in her left hand.
"So it was here all along!"
This is the wooden box that Leon took with him when he left the palace. It contains some of his magical experiment data, as well as many precious materials from the laboratory.
"Yeah, that's really strange."
Philippa smiled calmly.
Leon happily accepted the wooden box, checked that nothing was missing, put the tattered book inside, and then put the wooden box in his pocket.
"If you hadn't just said that you are a human mage, I would have thought you were an alchemist before."
Philippa complained.
“Miss Philippa, looking into other people’s private belongings is not a quality that a pretty girl like you should possess.”
Leon rolled his eyes.
"What do you mean 'others'? You're mine."
The incredibly powerful and domineering Miss Cooper declared, "What's yours is mine."
There was another line, "Mine, still mine," which you didn't say, did you...?
Hey, woman.
Leon muttered something under his breath.
"However, while the materials here aren't exactly rare, they are extremely expensive. Your father is only a baron; where do you get so much money?"
Philippa asked curiously.
"It's from gambling. I like to visit casinos when I have nothing to do. I usually win nine out of ten times, so I have quite a bit of savings."
Leon boasted.
"Alright, it seems I was overthinking it. At least I'm not being kept by some noble ladies."
Philippa breathed a sigh of relief, as if she had been under immense pressure from being NTR'd.
Uh……
Although I do look quite like a gigolo,
But you can't judge a book by its cover!
Leon was speechless.
"Alright, this book is useless. Let me choose another sealing item for you to use for self-defense."
With Felipe pulling Leon along, they headed towards the intermediate-level warrior area without further ado.
Chapter Twenty-Five: The Key to Escape
For the second sealed item, Philippa didn't give Leon the freedom to choose. She forcefully grabbed a silver cross pendant and shoved it into Leon's hand.
This silver cross pendant is called the "Silver Cross." It was forged by human alchemists to fight vampires.
This pendant is made of pure silver, including the chain. Its design is quite beautiful. When Leon ran his hand over the pendant, he could clearly feel the rough texture of the fine engravings on it.
"By wearing this pendant, you can regain your spirituality and also have a certain immunity to damage from vampires. In addition, vampires are afraid of silver, and this thing is pure silver. If you do not have a demigod physique, you cannot come into direct contact with it."
As Philippa said this, Leon subconsciously glanced at the pair of fair, delicate hands that had just handed him the pendant.
Suddenly, Philippa was seen wearing a pair of white gloves.
As expected... direct contact is not advisable.
And so, Leondo got a free copy of a surviving notebook belonging to someone from the Mishuteltin family.
When he followed Philippa out of the vortex portal, Renas didn't say anything, but his gaze toward Leon became increasingly unfriendly.
Therefore, Leon secretly reminded himself that he had to be careful of this Renas.
When I walked up the stairs and returned to the ground hall, Leticia was already waiting for me.
She wore a pale yellow long dress, a hat embroidered with red roses, and her long hair was styled in a bun with a beautiful bat hairpin in the middle.
It must be a very happy thing for vampires to be able to stay young forever.
For example, Leticia is now in her 30s, but she still looks like a beautiful young girl.
Standing next to Leticia was a woman with a sexy and tall figure, long silver-white hair with slight curls, and a pair of eyes like two sapphires on her delicate and beautiful face, full of charm.
"Philippa, hurry up and change your clothes, we should leave."
Upon seeing Philippa, Leticia immediately urged him on.
"Mr. Dieter, I'm entrusting my teacher to you during this time."
Philippa turned to look at Dieter who was walking over and whispered her instructions.
"Understood, Miss Philippa."
Dieter nodded slightly.
He then turned to Leon, "Mr. Daniel, please come with me."
"OK, all right."
Leon was more than happy to oblige. He didn't want to continue following Philippa and getting close to Leticia and that beautiful stranger, because that would be extremely awkward.
This situation is like you and your best buddy just came out of an internet cafe playing games together, and then you bumped into your best buddy's parents.
At this point, are you really going to go up with your best buddy and say, "Hello, Uncle! Hello, Aunt! Oh right, he and I climbed over the school wall together to get online. Aren't we amazing?"
This is clearly not advisable.
"Okay, Mother."
Philippa gave Leticia an awkward smile, nodded to the woman next to Leticia, and then jogged upstairs.
At this moment, Leon and Dieter were almost at the door of Philippa's room.
"Teacher, come in."
Philippa jogged after him and then immediately invited Leon to her boudoir for a chat.
So Leon returned to the room with the large, pink, round bed.
“Teacher, I will be an adult in two weeks. In our vampire clan, there is a rule that a week before the coming-of-age ceremony, the younger generation must go to Moonlight City and, under the guidance of the Thorn Church, go to the holy land to receive the blessing of the progenitor. Only in this way can our strength undergo a qualitative change.”
Philippa, slightly out of breath, explained to Leon.
"I see. So you're going to Moonlight City, to the Thorn Church headquarters, to receive the blessing of the Moon Ancestor?"
Leon raised an eyebrow.
"Yes."
Philippa answered.
Bless me...
After receiving the blessing, one's strength will undergo a qualitative change.
Does that mean,
Philippa returned a week later.
Then you will possess true Embrace ability!
hiss,
It seems that whether their vampire abilities are fully developed has nothing to do with whether they are adults or not, but mainly depends on that god...
Leon felt that his understanding of the vampire race, a non-human race, had deepened once again.
"So, teacher, you must take good care of yourself and wait for me to come back safe and clean."
Philippa grinned mischievously.
"Ah... okay."
Uh, this...
