E - Rank Hero In Another World
Chapter 114 - Options

"Three solutions?" Ask Leo with a sharp look.

Bernadetta also gave his proposal in detail. There was not a single detail that Leo missed in this.

While listening to all the proposed solutions, Leo considered all the bad things directly.

The first solution is to Leo accept exile. Where he and his group will be expelled from the City legally. It is forbidden to return forever. Meanwhile, the government will be occupied by Bernadetta for a while.

The second solution is to perform a false execution. All that to give a real punishment, but in reality it will still be fine. With a record he would lose almost everything he had built in this city.

Then the final solution....

"I will make you a noble. More precisely a Count to occupy this city. But the problem with this solution is, you're gonna have a big problem with Duke Achibald. What say?" Ask the old woman to Leo.

After listening to all the solutions offered, Leo easily answered.

"Of course you know I'm going to choose the third solution, right? It's not like I'm going to leave this town in Achibald's hands once again." Reply Leo.

A faint smile was seen on the faces of Roselia and also Bernadetta at that time.

"Thank God." Bernadetta reply brief.

"Then, when is the rapture?" Ask Leo.

But the answer given by Bernadetta was quite confusing to Leo at the time. How not?

"Three months ago."

"Huh?"

It was the most absurd answer that Leo had heard in his entire life.

How a coronation or rapture of nobles could have taken place three months ago, when that alone had never happened.

But the answer was immediately in the file given by Bernadetta. A very beautiful sheet of paper with two names in it.

Alexander Leonardo von Rustellia.

And also....

Roselia Verticia von Rustellia.

Seeing that, Leo immediately stood up from his seat quickly.

"What does this mean?" Leo asked in surprise.

While Roselia who had been sitting while enjoying her warm tea just glanced lightly at Leo.

"As it is written. Legally, I and I were married 3 months ago matrilineally. Well, even though I'm not interested in you at all, just consider it a light favor from me." Clearly Roselia while smiling sweetly.

Wedding matrilineal.

That means the groom will enter into the family tree of the bride. In this case, Leo soon entered into the Rustellia family through the marriage line.

And that also means....

"Tu-wait first! I don't know if this is the way.... Huh huh? Why are you laughing?!" Ask Leo towards Bernadetta.

Trying to suppress her laughter, the old woman replied.

"No, I thought you were just a stiff guy who wasn't good at expressing his feelings. It seems the opposite, right?"

"So that's how it is. From now on we're a couple, Leo." Said Roselia with a face that seemed to be teasing her.

But it seems Leo's fantasy is too far away. Because in fact, just like Roselia said, this is just a helping hand to help Leo.

All of that was explained after their next conversation.

"Just calm. Not that I want to sleep in one bed with you. Like I said, this is just status. From now on, you can officially use that surname.

Although I'm very sure, the bald man will be very angry with this state." Clearly Roselia while laughing lightly.

The bald man he meant was none other than Achibald himself.

Relieved that his misunderstanding had been solved, Leo sat back down. Now with a slightly cooler head.

There is no thought of Roselia in it. Or at least.... That is what he is currently working on.

'Calm yourself! Leo! You've done it a lot with Reina! Why are you so nervous now?!' Shouted Leo in his heart.

"Faulia...."

After adjusting his breath, Leo finally returned to his proper self.

"Thank you very much for the help of you two. I greatly appreciate this help, and will exert all my strength and ability for this city. But.... Is it that bad to face Achibald?" Ask Leo.

Roselia who heard the question put down her ceramic cup which was only held by her right hand. After that, he also replied.

"At least you're going to war with him. Worse, maybe the royal family will help him. Worst of all, maybe this whole kingdom will hunt you down. A little better than death, right?"

"What is it?!"

Of course it was a response issued by Leo. How not? A war? With fellow humans in this age? Even more so when the Devil nation is waiting to destroy humanity?

No. gabe.

That alone cannot happen.

That cannot happen in this world.

His death is not good news either. At least, Leo wanted to leave something to mankind before he died.

For them to be a little stronger to fight against the Devil nation. And also, so that He could carry out a small part of his duties by the Goddess Cyrese.

To save this world.

But nevertheless....

"Uuh, war is bad news in the current situation. But I think I can still think of some things to prevent that from happening. Or at least minimize the victim." Reply Leo.

Hearing that answer, Bernadetta seemed to smile with satisfaction.

"I believe you, son. I don't know why, I feel something inside you. Something similar to the heroes who studied here." Bernadetta.

Leo was quite surprised by the statement. But anyway, they are heroes.

It is only natural to obtain the best education and facilities from the kingdom. Therefore, he should not look surprised.

"Send me. I'll work on it."

After all this strange and troublesome business was settled, Leo and Roselia left the room.

In Leo's right hand is a paper that proves their never-ending marriage.

Now, his job is to spread the fact that he married one of the members of the Rustellian noble family. And that way, the legitimacy of his claim to the throne over the territory of Venice can be confirmed.

It's just....

"Hey, Leo. You know, I can guess anyone who likes you." Said Roselia when the two were almost in her study.

"Well, what do you mean?"

'Sat!'

Roselia suddenly embraces Leo's left arm with her right arm. And with a sad face, he pulled Leo into the room.

"Huh?! Why don't you ever tell your colleagues that we're actually married?!" Roselia shouted loudly.

Instantly, two people were seen dropping their drinking glasses to the floor while putting on a very confused face.

"Lord Leo.... Why didn't you say?" Selene asked with a face that seemed to have lost half her life.

"The.... So you've been home all night...." Reply Reina by putting on a face filled with disappointment.

Meanwhile, Luna was still busy sipping a drink from her glass that could only give a brief comment.

"Ughs.... Should I not be here?"

Leo himself?

He could only put on a surprised face instead of playing over Roselia's words. Of course, while thinking of the right sentence to explain all this.
