Chapter Vol 10. CH.4: The Leon Schem
This chapter is updated by JustRead.pl
At the Red Dragon Sanctuary, Isha looked at the sudden visitors. Combined with the wedding invitation from Constantine she had received yesterday, she could roughly guess why her sister and brother-in-law had brought the groom with them.“Don’t tell me the wedding is missing some step and you came to ask for my help?” she probed.
Leon clapped his hands.
“As expected of my sister-in-law — you figured out our purpose instantly.”
Isha snorted.
“Stop flattering me. What trouble did you run into?”
Seeing her directness, Leon stopped circling around and gestured to Constantine to explain personally.
Constantine stepped forward and nodded slightly.
“Sorry for the sudden visit, Red Dragon Queen. Orion and I are still missing an unmarried young pair to act as best man and bridesmaid. After searching everywhere without success, we thought of you. Would you be willing to be the bridesmaid?”
It was rare to see Constantine this polite. Clearly he knew manners mattered when asking favors. He had even come in person — otherwise a communication crystal would have sufficed.
Isha’s gaze shifted. After thinking briefly, she still hesitated.
“I have no bridesmaid experience… and at my age — though still considered young among dragons — I’m older than the younger generation. Isn’t that unsuitable?”
Leon blinked. “So you mean…?”
“Let me think about it. It’s a public appearance after all.”
Leon: “The best man is Kaiser.”
Isha: “Can the wedding be moved earlier?”
…
…
On the way to Sky City, Isha’s happiness was obvious.
Even Constantine noticed.
“It’s only being a bridesmaid. Isn’t your sister… unusually happy?” he whispered while flying beside the six-winged eagle.
Leon sat cross-legged on the eagle’s back and shook his head seriously.
“No no — she’s not happy about the bridesmaid part. She’s happy about the best man.”
Constantine paused. “You mean… Kaiser? Right, before leaving you guaranteed they’d both agree. Why were you so confident?”
Leon shrugged.
“Because I know them. As long as one hears the other will be there, the other will definitely agree.”
Constantine considered it.
“But we never asked Kaiser beforehand. Isn’t that inappropriate?”
“It’s fine. Even without this, he’d find an excuse to attend just to see Isha,” Leon grinned. “So let them be best man and bridesmaid — they meet, and they get perfectly reasonable interaction at the wedding. Two birds with one stone.”
Constantine never kept up with Leon’s thinking. Still, the problem was solved.
They arrived at Sky City hours later.
With a week left before the wedding, Isha came mainly to rehearse procedures so she wouldn’t embarrass herself — or rather, embarrass a dragon.
At the entrance, a guard was already waiting.
Not Kaiser.
Since Constantine had been staying here preparing the wedding, the tower naturally assigned him an escort.
Seeing two dragon queens and a prince arrive together, the guard bowed respectfully.
“Silver Dragon Queen, Prince, Red Dragon Queen — as dragon-king-level guests, an additional escort is required. I will return to Dawn Tower to gather personnel. Please wait here.”
Leon beckoned him closer.
“Any special instructions, Your Highness?”
Leon slung an arm over the guard’s shoulder and glanced at Rosvisser and Isha chatting nearby.
“Last time the Tower Lord gave me the privilege to choose my own escort. Do I still...”
“Of course. Anytime.”
Leon quietly relaxed.
“Then bring Kaiser. Tell him the Red Dragon Queen is here — running speed.”
“Understood.”
Within ten minutes the guard returned. Before landing, a figure jumped from the dragon’s back and landed in a dramatic hero pose.
Leon crossed his arms and whispered to his wife:
“The kid learned how to act cool.”
Rosvisser covered her mouth and laughed softly.
“Boys always act cool in front of girls they like. It means he’s improving — he didn’t even know how before.”
Leon silently gave a thumbs-up.
Kaiser walked to Isha — their first meeting in months.
Isha crossed her arms, smiling slightly and tilting her head.
Kaiser tried to look cool but still blushed under her gaze.
He scratched his head awkwardly.
“L-long time no see, Miss Isha.”
“Oh? You know it’s been long — then why didn’t you visit the Red Dragon clan?” she asked sweetly.
“I… we don’t get much leave here, so I couldn’t go. I’m sorry.”
“So you didn’t want to see me? You didn’t even reply to my letters.”
“No no! Miss Isha, I...”
Leon sighed.
“My sister-in-law’s level is too high. Kaiser won’t catch up in fifty years.”
Rosvisser smiled.
“That’s perfect. They’ll both enjoy fifty years.”
Isha lightly punched Kaiser’s chest.
“I’m teasing. Don’t cry — I’m terrible at comforting kids.”
Then she asked:
“I heard you’ll be the best man at Constantine’s wedding?”
Kaiser froze.
“No… no one told me that.”
Isha blinked — instantly realizing she’d fallen into Leon’s “board first, ticket later” scheme.
But she didn’t expose him.
“It’s not too late now. Seven days from now — you’re the best man.”
“I’ve never been one. I should think...”
“I’m the bridesmaid.”
“No problem, Miss Isha. I’ll do it.”
Leon & Rosvisser: “You two are suspiciously synchronized.”
Constantine: It’s my wedding… so why does it feel like someone else is showing affection?
