As a villain, he could do whatever he wanted.

"Hmph, as soon as you agreed, Lius, you took advantage of the situation. I haven't finished what I was saying yet. Even if I agree to your request, there are limits to how much you can 'tease' me every day. There must be limits on the number of times and the time each day, otherwise... I'll get angry."

"Yes, of course, I will obey Aunt Aurora's orders and not make you angry, hehe... But for now, let me 'celebrate' properly. After all, Aunt Aurora has agreed to a marriage alliance with me in the future. Since that's the case, wouldn't it be a shame if I didn't act excited? So... please let me be a little cute, Aunt Aurora. I promise I can make you happy!"

"Hmph, how can you expect me to be happy by teasing my feet like this?" Aurora snorted and turned her head away, seemingly dismissive of Lius's words.

"Oh, don't worry, Ms. Aurora, I'm very skilled at foot massage techniques. I'm sure you'll have a unique experience. Come on, relax and enjoy it."

With a smile, Lius held Aurora's beautiful feet in his hands and gently massaged and rubbed them with a sweet smile. Aurora's face gradually flushed, and with her heart pounding faster, she couldn't help but bite her lip, feeling the warm sensation coming from the soles of her feet.

"How...how could this be? This feeling...how can it feel so good...What did Leus do...Damn it, I, as an elder, should be full of authority, but now I'm completely under his control. I'm so unwilling..."

As Lius was giving her a foot massage, Aurora crossed her arms over her chest, looking rather awkward.

Despite her efforts to free her feet from Lius's grasp, she couldn't help but succumb to the comforting sensation and enjoy the boy's caresses.

"How is it, Ms. Aurora? Isn't it comfortable? This is the service I'm providing for my future wife, so enjoy it!"

“Um… don’t talk nonsense, it’s not completely certain yet, I’m not your… future wife…” Aurora struggled to say.

"Even if it's not completely confirmed yet, didn't you already promise me, Aurora, that you'd be together in the future? If that's the case, then isn't she my future marriage partner?"

"Marriage alliance..."

Faced with Lius's statement, Aurora pursed her lips, and finally, after some struggle, revealed her true feelings:

"Even if I agree to your proposal... if we have an arranged marriage, you'll have to marry my daughter, not... me..."

"Huh? With Aunt Aurora, your daughter?" Hearing this, Lius blinked in surprise. "Why? Aunt, didn't you already promise me? Why are you talking about your daughter now? Could it be that you really want to have my daughter and me together..."

"Hey! Don't take this as something I actively wanted, okay? It took me a lot of effort to convince myself to accept it."

Struggling to refute Lius, Aurora pursed her lips and continued:

“The reason I say this is because my daughter possesses exceptional magical talent, ranking among the best in our family and even the kingdom. Only through her union with you, Lius, can we produce outstanding offspring. Therefore, you must… you must…”

After a pause, Aurora blushed and stated her final conclusion:

"So you must... accept my daughter and become her official husband. As for me, I can only 'accompany' you in private..."

Chapter 192 Foot Massage for a Young Woman (Part 4)

"Huh? Aunt Aurora, you..."

Hearing the bold words of the dark-haired young woman before him, Leus paused slightly, then frowned slightly and asked Aurora with some suspicion:

"Is this really what you, Aunt Aurora, truly thinking? Although it sounds quite ordinary, if you think about it carefully... it seems like a mother cheating on her daughter with her son-in-law. Given your mindset, Aunt Aurora, could you really do it...?"

"Hey! Don't make it sound like I have no complaints. I also... I also put in a lot of effort to barely accept this result. After all, you've already confessed to me. If I continue to hide it, it will hurt your feelings. So even if I do something immoral... I have to make you understand my true feelings. It's all for you. You should accept it with gratitude, understand?"

Grasping her alluringly slender waist, Aurora frowned as she spoke to the boy beneath her. Lius nodded slightly, patted Aurora's thigh, and gestured for her to get up a little.

"Alright, alright, about this matter... I'll think about it carefully when I get back and try my best to give you, Ms. Aurora, a reasonable answer. Now... could you let go of me a little? If you keep pressing on me like this, my legs feel like they're going to go numb."

"Heh...didn't you say you really liked this position of mine before? Why don't you want to now? I'm already completely absorbed in it. Since that's the case, I can't get up anytime soon."

Seemingly sensing the embarrassment in Lius's heart, Aurora rolled her eyes and revealed an ambiguous smile. Without moving her body, she continued to press down, pinning the boy down beneath her. Lius was unable to break free for a moment, and his body swayed and rocked, looking as if he was about to be crushed.

"Ah... Aunt Aurora, have you gained a lot of weight recently? I feel like I can't move at all," Lius said with a slight struggle.

"Heh, you dare to say I'm heavy? Isn't this what you asked for, Lius? Now, sitting on you like this, isn't it quite comfortable? Especially my legs and feet, you can touch and play with them all. Isn't that good? Come on, you can touch my legs and feet as you like now. Hurry up and massage them for me. Once I'm happy, I'll let you go, understand?"

With a slightly mischievous smile, Aurora continued to press her beautiful buttocks downwards, seemingly enjoying teasing the little boy. Lius could only continue to hold Aurora's beautiful feet in his hands, massaging them while asking her about the important business they had come for that day.

"Let's put everything else aside for now and continue talking about the cult. Aunt Aurora, what are your thoughts on the cult?"

“Ideas? Yes, I can use my knowledge of caravans to gather intelligence within the kingdom, including the supply of weapons to the army, so that we can provide Her Majesty with solid support.”

"If we gather intelligence, will it be detected in time? Don't forget that cultists have infiltrated most parts of the kingdom, and may even be in the upper echelons. Could there be some false clues mixed in?" Lius asked again without changing his expression.

"Don't worry, we will verify all intelligence sources carefully. We will conduct a thorough search of every piece of information, and..."

Aurora lowered her head slightly, looking down at Lius beneath her, a confident glint in her eyes:

"Besides... don't you trust my abilities? I will verify all that intelligence. Those cultists can't fool me, so don't worry. Moreover, if we do find some false intelligence, wouldn't that expose the cultists who provided it? It would be beneficial to our plan."

"The main thing is that our actions can no longer be limited to 'beneficial and harmless'. Time is of the essence, and we must act immediately, otherwise it will inevitably cause some unnecessary variables. Here's what I'm going to say: I'll offer you an idea, Aunt Aurora, and let you act according to this idea. Perhaps you can make some new discoveries."

"Oh? A new discovery? Does that mean, Lius, you... have some clues again, or did you conceal some clues from the beginning?" Aurora asked with some suspicion, looking at Lius.

"Ha... Regarding this matter, you'll have to think about it yourself, Aunt Aurora. Now, I'll share my thoughts with you, so please listen carefully..."

Looking at Aurora, Leus straightened his expression and finally spoke softly to her:

"Ms. Aurora, how much do you know about the title 'Bishop'?"

"A bishop? Do you mean a bishop in the church? Or, Lius, do you mean... the bishopric within that cult?"

After muttering to herself thoughtfully for a moment, Aurora looked at Lius again and gently shook her head.

"No, I don't know much about the church normally. Even if you want to know about this, I don't know the secrets. Why don't you ask Ms. Loy? Perhaps she is more interested in this matter."

“I already asked her, and she said she didn’t know either. So now it’s time for you, Ms. Aurora, to investigate. With your intelligence network, I’m sure you can find some clues about the ‘Bishop’.”

"Even if you say so, Lius... I can't completely trace anything right now. Are there any more specific clues, such as appearance or habits?"

Aurora continued to ask questions, and Lius observed the expression on the dark-haired young woman's face. Seeing the genuine confusion on her face, he gradually felt relieved. He nodded to Aurora and recounted what he had heard about the "bishop" in the church.

“The bishop… is a very maternal person, and should be about the same age as you, Lady Aurora. She usually wears a black robe and can use magic. With these clues, we should be able to find some suitable candidates.”

"Hmm... alright, although it's still very vague, at least we have some ideas. Okay, I'll find some people I trust to search for clues, and once we find them, I'll tell you, Commander, about it properly."

“That would be great… But since I’m the commander, Ms. Aurora, could you… perhaps get off me now?”

Lius patted Aurora's thigh again, pleading, while the dark-haired woman continued to hum softly, rubbing her feet against Lius's palm.

"...I'll knead you for another five minutes and then I'll let you go."

"Okay, my favorite Aunt Aurora."

With a docile smile, Lius nodded slightly and continued massaging the young woman in front of him, while Aurora hummed softly, enjoying the pleasurable comfort in the ambiguous atmosphere...

Chapter 193 Meeting with the Female General (Part 1)

Some time later, at the door of the room.

"Then please carry out my instructions properly, Ms. Aurora."

"Alright, you better be careful too. As the commander-in-chief, don't keep putting yourself in danger. If anything goes wrong, I won't let you off the hook, understand?"

"Yes! Don't worry, Ms. Aurora, I guarantee nothing will go wrong before the marriage. Trust me!"

With a knowing smile, Lius nodded vigorously to the dark-haired woman in front of him, while Aurora smiled helplessly, affectionately stroked Lius's cheek, and then waved goodbye to him.

"Well... I wonder how things are going with Leah. Although I said I would wait for her in her room, judging from the time it took, things on her end probably aren't completely over yet. Hmm... I'll go check on her secretly."

Thinking this through, Leus changed direction, turned around and went down the stairs towards the training grounds deep inside the palace, to check on Lia's current condition...

------

Half an hour ago, at the training ground.

"This is the training ground that my brother mentioned earlier. If I'm not mistaken, Ms. Leon should be nearby. Hmm... based on my previous observations of Ms. Leon, she uses a greatsword, so she should be training in a relatively spacious area..."

Upon arriving at the spacious training ground, looking at the soldiers and female knights training beside her, Leah maintained a serious demeanor, passed through layers of steps, and finally arrived at a platform on the second floor.

This is a dedicated fighting arena for practicing combat, where two people can fight together or one person can train.

"Bang! Bang!"

As soon as she entered, Leah heard the sound of wooden stakes being struck, like raindrops falling in a downpour. Just by listening, she could feel the intensity and speed of the blows.

Bathed in sunlight, a figure shimmering with silver light appeared in Lia's sight.

The figure was agile and light-footed, yet wielded a heavy greatsword. At times, the sword moved like a collapsing mountain, and at others, it moved as lightly as a feather passing through a crack. Every move exuded the aura of a master. The wooden stake in front of him was like a leaf blown by a gale, frantically being cut and broken by the flashing blade of the greatsword, which was enough to show the sharpness and selflessness of the user.

"Wow……"

Faced with all this, Lia stood there dumbfounded.

Despite having experienced many things and witnessed many grand scenes with her older brother, the current scene still shocked the white-haired girl.

Because she could sense that when the silver-haired female general used her moves, she did not use any magic or spells. She simply used her physical body to wield the giant sword, which was as tall as a person, and executed exquisite and graceful moves.

The technique was exquisite, combining not only physical strength but also Leon's own skill. Leah even had a premonition that even if her elder brother were to try, he would not be able to defeat this valiant female general in a physical duel.

"Ok?"

Just then, seemingly noticing Leah's presence, Leon ended his training, turned his head slightly, and looked at the white-haired girl behind him.

"Oh? You are..."

"Ah...Ms. Leon..."

Facing the gaze from the female general, Leah swallowed slightly, then took a deep breath, and with a solemn expression, gave Leon a slight bow, slowly saying:

"Hello, Ms. Leon, my name is Leah, and I am Lius-Fren's sister. Today, on behalf of my brother, I have come to discuss with you matters concerning the future confrontation with the cultists. I look forward to your guidance."

"Did Lius send you here? If so, please take a seat."

Looking at Lia, the silver-haired female general nodded gently, inviting the young girl to sit down. Upon hearing this, Lia slowly exhaled, maintaining her composure and secretly feeling a sense of relief.

"Hmm... good, not bad, you successfully struck up a conversation with Ms. Leon. That's good. Continue to maintain this pace and keep the conversation flowing smoothly..."

Thinking this through, Leah and Leon sat down together on the chairs next to each other. The waiters brought out tea and snacks one by one. Leon took the teapot first and poured a cup of black tea for the white-haired girl in front of him.

"Here, have a taste. This is a specialty of the Northern Territory, White Frost Black Tea. It has a unique aroma. Young Master Lius tasted it before and praised the flavor. I wonder if Miss Lia would like it?"

"Oh... this... I can't accept this. I can pour it myself, there's no need to trouble you, Ms. Leon..."

Seeing Leon's actions, Leah hurriedly waved her hands, trying to take the teapot from her, but Leon stopped her and gave her a gentle look.

"There's no need to be so formal. As soldiers, we don't need to pay so much attention to etiquette, especially these tedious formalities, which are useless to soldiers. So, Miss Leah, you should relax a bit."

"Ah...is this...is that so..."

Hearing Leon's words, Leah was stunned for a moment, then nodded slightly to her, took the teacup handed to her by the female general, and gently put it to her lips to take a sip.

“Hmm…it is indeed very delicious. Ms. Leon just mentioned that my brother also likes this kind of black tea. Does that mean you and he were already quite familiar with each other before?” Savoring the aroma of the tea, Leah looked at Leon and asked her softly.

"You could say that when some troubles occurred in the North, it was Prince Lius who devised a plan to help us resolve them and save us from the crisis. Both I and the other soldiers in the North have an indelible gratitude towards Prince Lius."

"Huh... is that even possible?"

Leah blinked in surprise. Although she was eager to know the story, considering her current situation, she decided to avoid complicating things for the time being. So, after taking a deep breath, she spoke to Leon again, revealing her original purpose for the day:

"Ms. Leon, what are your thoughts on the matter of cultists... um?"

Before she could finish speaking, Leon stood up from his seat, stretched slightly, and picked up the greatsword beside him.

"I've rested enough, it's time to continue training, Miss Leah. Would you like to practice with me?"

"Huh? Practice...practice?"

Hearing Leon's sudden statement, Leah blinked in surprise, unsure of what expression to make...

Chapter 194 Meeting with the Female General (Part Two)

"Then, Miss Leah, would you mind practicing combat with me?"

"Training...Me and Ms. Leon together?"

Hearing Leon's words, Leah blinked in surprise, seemingly taken aback by the idea suddenly proposed by the silver-haired female general.

“Yes, it’s training time now. When I’m guarding the northern border, this is the time for me and my men to spar. It’s a daily habit of mine. It’s crucial for both the morale of the northern border and the development of my personal abilities. Today, Miss Lia, you’re here. As Prince Lius’s sister, you must have learned a lot of combat-related skills. We can practice on each other’s behalf.”

Leon stood up beside her seat, gently raising his two long arms to make a suggestion to Leah, and then added:

"As for the cultists, I will explain during the rest period after the battle, Miss Leah, you don't need to worry. Now let's begin our battle, shall we?"

Leon gathered her long, smooth, silver-white hair behind her with a hair tie, and while speaking, she tidied her face, turning her loose hair into a high ponytail that stretched upwards and backwards.

Bathed in the sunlight streaming through the window, Leon's hair shimmered and sparkled, like a diamond just pulled from lava, dazzling and translucent, exuding an ethereal quality.

Her capable and dashing appearance, coupled with her serious and earnest expression, makes one feel the heroism and beauty of this female general just by looking at her.

"Gu..."
