After Leon left, Tsubaki showed a mysterious look and took out a plant that looked a bit strange from her backpack.
"Hehe, I didn't expect to encounter this kind of medicinal material in the tree maze."
"I will take the initiative today and make it a done deal."
Leon didn't know what plans Tsubaki had in mind. After leaving the camp, he wandered around in the wild.
To be honest, Leon has camped in safe floors many times, but he has never wandered around in the wild on the safe floors.
This is the first time.
The safe floor looks no different from the surface.
The dungeon is really magical. It can actually create such a comfortable biosphere underground.
However, thinking that the dungeon is an existence equal to gods, Leon didn't find it unbelievable.
Leon strolled around while enjoying the beautiful scenery.
However, as he walked, he stopped and looked ahead in surprise.
Through the dense vegetation and trees, he saw a figure standing quietly in front of a small mound on the ground.
There were various broken weapons stuck on the small mound, and the figure standing in front was wearing a cloak, had a pair of pointed elf ears, and green shoulder-length hair.
Looking at this figure, Leon became slightly silent. He hadn't expected to meet Ryu here.
That mound on the ground with broken weapons inserted into it must be the grave that Ryuu set up for the Astraea familia.
Taking a step, Leon walked towards Ryuu with light steps.
Ryuu was very alert, and Leon had no intention of hiding. So, when he walked over, she immediately noticed it.
"Who!!!"
With a harsh shout, Ryuu turned around.
She put her hand on the weapon at her waist, and looked ready to fight at any time.
"Nice seeing you again, waitress-san."
Leon kept walking forward, waving as he walked, and greeted with a smile.
"It's you!!"
Ryuu was a little surprised to see Leon.
As for why Leon could recognize her, Ryuu didn't think there was anything wrong.
Although her face was covered with a cloth, anyone who had seen her would recognize her appearance.
Ryuu didn't expect to meet Leon here.
"Are you here to remember your past companions?"
Leon nodded, then smiled and said.
"Yeah." Ryuu nodded.
Then, she turned around again, and continued to stare at the small mound in front of her quietly.
Seeing this, Leon didn't continue to speak but walked over and stood side by side with Ryuu, looking at the small mound in front of him.
To be honest, Leon felt sorry for the Astraea familia.
If it weren't for the fact that they were plotted against by the Rudra familia and encountered the Juggernaut, the Astraea familia would definitely have been among the ranks of large familias now.
Although it might not be comparable to the Ganesha familia, it could at least rank fourth.
The Hephaestus familia and the Ishtar familia would simply not be comparable.
After all, the Astraea familia at that time already had several Lv.4s.
If they hadn't died, they would have definitely ranked up to Lv.5 in five years. Those Lv. 3s would have definitely ranked up to Lv. 4, or even caught up with Ryuu and the others.
And with Ryuu's talent, reaching Lv. 6 in that time frame wouldn't be impossible.
After all, five years ago, she was already on the verge of ranking up.
However, these are all in the past.
What a pity!
At this moment, Leon suddenly found that Ryuu's eyes had shifted from the mounds to him.
Leon turned his head and looked over, and asked in confusion.
"Why are you looking at me like that?"
"My name is Ryuu, Ryuu Lion." Looking at Leon, Ryuu said.
Hearing this, Leon was slightly stunned. He didn't expect Ryuu to say her real name.
After all, she is now wanted by the guild.
However, Ryuu has told him her name, Leon can't just not respond.
"Leon Morningstar!" Leon nodded slightly and said.
Then, Leon quietly waited for Ryuu's reaction.
After saying his full name, Leon didn't believe that Ryuu would have no thoughts.
"I don't know why, when I first saw you, I felt that you had something very important to me."
"But I don't know what it is. "
"Can you help me solve the puzzle?"
Ryuu looked at Leon quietly without saying anything. It was not until Leon was about to ask that Ryuu spoke softly and slowly.
"Hmm?"
Leon was stunned.
What does she mean?
He remembered that the first time he saw Ryuu was when he went out to look for Hestia late at night.
At that time, he went to the Hostess of Fertility to look for Hestia, but in the end, he didn't find her.
Did Ryuu have this feeling about him at that time?
What's the reason?
"Especially this time, seeing Leon-san again, this feeling has become even stronger. "
"I just confirmed that Leon-san definitely has what I need."
Ryuu's expression was very firm and serious, as if she was completely sure of this feeling without any doubt.
Looking at Ryuu act like this, Leon glanced at the small mounds beside him and seemed to think of something.
After hesitating for a moment, Leon did not give an answer, but spoke softly.
"Take all these things back."
After giving such an answer, Leon turned around and left.
Hearing this, Ryuu became slightly startled. Her eyes shifted to the weapons stuck on the small mound, and an incredible guess emerged in her heart.
'Could it be!!!'
Leon didn't know what Ryuu was thinking at this time. He had already returned to his camp.
"Ah, Leon, you are back."
"The meal is ready, come and try it."
Seeing Leon, Tsubaki was overjoyed and waved to him.
Looking at the pot hanging on the campfire, Leon's lips slightly twitched.
"Tsubaki, do you really like me that much?"
Looking at Tsubaki, Leon asked very seriously.
"Of course, I like you, Leon."
Seeing Leon act like this, Tsubaki was slightly stunned, and then said with a smile.
"Okay, I'll fulfill your wish."
Hearing this answer, Leon did not refuse anymore, and appeared beside Tsubaki in a flash.
He bent over and picked up Tsubaki.
"Wait? Leon?"
Tsubaki was confused by Leon's sudden action.
"Isn't this what you want? I will satisfy you!"
"Hey!!!!"
