Ch. 142 - When did I get married?
"Just 200,000 more and I'll be able to buy Kratos's template," Leo muttered to himself, unable to hold his excitement.
It looks like he'll need to work hard, very hard.
"Looks like I'll need to inform Helen and Elsa that I will be going to another world again but this time, the world's time won't go to a halt." Muttering to himself, Leo wondered how he would break the news to Helen and Elsa.
'Why am I even turning this into a problem? I'd just break it to them as usual and it's up to them if they want to join me or not.' Shaking his head from these thoughts, Leo proceeded to tell Helen first since she was technically by his side already.
"Helen? Wake up, love." Softly calling out to her, Leo carefully nudged her awake.
"Hmm? Is it round ten already?" Fluttering her eyes open, Helen shifted awake as she asked confusedly as if her question were just normal every occurrence.
"No." Leo mentally smacked his forehead and chuckled as he denied her.
"I just want to say that I think we'll need to go to another world."
Upon hearing his words, Helen's eyes snapped open and she quickly stared directly into Leo's eyes.
"Again? Is there something wrong? How about Elsa?" Hearing her express her concerns, Leo calmed her down first.
"Yes, we're changing worlds again and no there's nothing wrong going on, we're fine and why are you even worried about Elsa? I thought you two were after each other's blood. What changed?" Casting a teasing smile at her, Leo saw her embarrassingly look away.
"W-Well, it's kind of hard to make out with you alone so….I start to realize how important Elsa is in our activities." Hearing her confession, Leo was unable to hold his laugh.
"Hahaha! So that's it? That's all it takes to pacify the both of you and keep you two from tearing each other's hair?" Leo finished, furthering Helen's blush on the cheeks.
"Stop it!" Helen playfully slapped Leo on his shoulders before crossing her arms with a pout.
"Fine fine, I'll stop. If you're truly worried about Elsa. How about I let you tell her that we're going to another world instead?" Leo offered and continued.
"And don't forget to tell her that the time won't be stopped this time, so make sure she makes a good decision." With that being said, Leo stood and made his way towards the kitchen to prepare breakfast.
'Thank you for shouldering this problem of mine!' Leo prayed in his heart, with Helen taking the responsibility of telling Elsa from him, that he could now breathe more smoothly.
As for Helen, she was left alone in the bed, now thinking how she'd break the news to Elsa.
***
After a few minutes of doing their morning routine, Leo transported him and Helen directly to Elsa's bedroom and were met with an empty one.
"She must be outside doing her Queen duties. You should wait here, I don't think it would be a good idea for you to be seen by her parents right now."
Nodding her head, Helen watched Leo's back as he exited the room, leaving her alone in the room.
'I wonder if Elsa has one of those 'things'.' With an evil smirk plastering on her face, Helen disappeared from her position and rotated around the room.
While Helen was busy with her evil motive, Leo was already making his way through the hallways where the maids and servants greeted him as they went.
Although it feels like he's been gone for a year, to these people, he's only been gone for a month. Hence, they still remember him and respect him for not only protecting their Kingdom but also their Princess and Queen.
To them, he is Arendelle's Hero.
Opening the wide doors, Leo entered the dining room where a long table that could accommodate 20 people, stood in the middle of the room.
Leo could see several maids tendering several dishes to the table while up to 30 knights in shiny metal armor were standing on each corner and side of the room, making the dining room one of the safest places on this planet.
Sitting on the chairs were the complete family of four, Agnare, Iduna, Elsa, and Anna.
The first three were eating their dinner in an elegant manner however, the last one, Anna was munching on some chocolates mixed with meat, her cheeks bulging like a squirrel.
"Ah! There you are, you must be the Daredevil, or should I say, Leo? It looks like my expectations weren't wrong. You are indeed handsome and good-looking behind that mask." The first one to greet him was Agnarr, who then continued.
"Please join us. We just started having breakfast and I would like to see you eat with us." Offering the chair beside Elsa, Leo raised his eyebrow in suspicion but placed it on the back of his mind and sat on Elsa's right side.
Although Elsa was already the Queen of the Kingdom, it seems like despite the title, Agnarr is still the head of the family as Leo noticed him still sitting on the head of the table.
"Thank you." Leo nodded his head, although he already ate breakfast with Helen back in their room, it would be too disrespectful to decline the offer.
His eyes then went on the side and noticed that Elsa was eating very calm, which is pretty normal but with Leo's senses and sharp eyesight, he could sense a swirl of emotions from her along with the small reddish hue in her cheeks.
Raising his eyebrow, Leo decided to inquire her about it later after breakfast.
"So Leo. I heard that you and Elsa are now…together. Is it true?" In the middle of the breakfast, Agnarr raised a question.
"Yes." Leo nodded his head again, he was almost tempted to call her father.
"I see. And you love her?" He asked again.
"With all of my heart." With a confident smile on his face, Leo answered him.
"Good. Then I'll prepare for the marriage tomorrow. I'll send out the invitations." With that being said, Agnarr wiped his mouth with a towel and excitedly left the dining room.
Meanwhile, Leo's confident smile vanished and was replaced by shock.
"What?" Slowly, his head robotically rotated to face Elsa, who is now hiding her face from Leo.
"Elsa?" Touching her shoulder, Leo patted them and felt her flinch slightly.
"Y-Yes?" Elsa's mouth quivered into a smile as she awkwardly faced Leo.
"I believe you have some explaining to do, right?" Leo smiled, however Elsa could already tell that his smile was different than usual.
"I should probably leave first. I think I just forgot to tell Kai something about the castle." Casting an apologetic smile towards her daughter, Iduna swiftly left the room.
"I-I'll go also. I almost forgot to attend my horse riding lesson today." Not even Anna was exempted and soon, left the dining room after giving Elsa an apologetic look.
Clank!
Clank!
Even the knights and maids, swiftly left the dining hall after a salute.
No one wanted to to involved in this mess after all.
"I-I think? But maybe we should finish breakfast first and-" Before Elsa could even finish her sentence, she was already transported back to her room.
"Ah."
'Mama. Papa. Please don't forget about your daughter.' Closing her eyes, Elsa cast a silent prayer in her heart.
"What's going on?" Helen, who was breathing heavily after immediately ceasing her 'actions' when Leo and Elsa suddenly appeared in the room, asked them in confusion.
"I'm married." Leo wasted no time and quickly dropped the nuclear bomb on Helen's head.
Helen froze for a few seconds before reacting.
"WHAT DID YOU JUST SAY!? YOU'RE WHAT!?"
***
"I'm sorry! Its just that, I thought that by marrying you, I'll have an upper ground against her!" Pointing her finger at Helen, Elsa tries to clear her name.
"And now you're accusing me!?" Helen gasped in shock.
"You bitch! I thought I could finally open up to you as fellow sisters loving the same man!" Helen angrily continued.
"Not your fault? You think I didn't noticed yesterday? You were looking at a shop full of wedding rings! Obviously you had the same plan, I just beat you to it!" Elsa replied in the same manner.
"That…" Helen turned speechless, unable to retort her accusation.
"See? She's guilty!" Taking advantage of this, Elsa pressed further.
"Aright you both, stop this instant!"
"Elsa, I never gave my consent for this marriage." Hearing his words, Elsa's face turned downcast as she looked down on the ground in sadness.
Helen, who was normally would side against Elsa, turned to look at Leo, not expecting him to be this heartless. Sure, she doesn't want to have Elsa to marry him first but to turn her down like this, its too cruel.
"But that doesn't mean I don't love you. If you had asked me first then I would say yes. But its too late now."
"That's why I'm going to ask you, Elsa and also Helen." Hearing him call their names, both of them looked at him at the same time.
Slowly lowering down on the ground, Leo kneeled in front of the two of them and continued.
"From the bottom of my heart, I have always loved the two of you. I know I am a shameless man for not being content with a single woman but know this, I would die for the two of you…." Taking out the two rings that have been rotting on his inventory, Leo presented them.
"So Helen, Elsa. Will you two marry me?"
