Without the slightest bit of hesitation, Rezen hurriedly slapped the recovery pill on Claude’s lips to forcefully feed it to him
He was worried that with how talkative Claude is right now, this man would die while talking
If that were to happen, there is no way that Rezen would survive this night!
Claude is his current lifeblood!
“Ayoo, why are your lips soft and plump? How perfect can you be?” Rezen complained, thinking that the world is really unfair
Rezen himself doesn’t look bad but he still paled in comparison to the Prince Charming in his arms
After force-feeding the handsome guy, Rezen hurriedly pulled Claude to force the man to stand before moving behind him as if he was using the Captain as his shield
“Brother Claude, as you can see I am like an ant against godly beings like you and that General. Brother, you will save me, right? I don’t want to die a virgin!” Rezen said while patting his meat shield on the back
“I’m sorry I…”
Claude wanted to say that he is currently in a bad shape and he can’t even use a single spell but to his surprise, his body and soul were healing at a fast pace
The healing effect was extremely instantaneous that he even wondered if his injuries from before were just illusions
Even one of his arms that broke and was dangling earlier was restored back to normal
The most surprising one was the state of his soul though. It was as if Claude didn’t use magic above his level earlier
What the hell is that pill? It is nothing but miraculous!
“What did you feed me…” Claude asked in extreme shock but Rezen just held his head and moved it to make Claude look at Leon that was raising his eyebrow
“It’s just some vitamins, brother Claude doesn’t need to mind it. We still have a bigger problem” Rezen simply said, afraid that he would get killed before he can even react
Rezen’s words woke Claude from the extreme shock and he stared at the General
“Leon, if you want to fight or kill me, let’s do it in another place. Don’t involve the civilians” Claude said, his tone ice-cold but Leon just sneered
“I don’t care what happens to an ant but… I am interested in the treasure that he holds. How can it heal you that fast? If I were to offer the treasure to Her Majesty no doubt that she would reward me” Leon said with a chuckle
The way he looks at Rezen now is as if he was staring at a treasure trove and that causes the poor man to have goosebumps
“I-it’s just vitami—, ordinary recovery pills! It’s absolutely not a treasure!” Rezen ‘clarified’ but not to mention Leon, even Claude would not believe him
“How about this, you tell me what the treasure is, where I could get or make it then I might let you leave here alive?” Leon offered and Rezen internally groaned
Isn’t that a typical move? The person in power would say that if you give them what they want, you would survive but in the end, you would just be backstabbed
Rezen’s IQ is not low enough to believe that kind of lie. Even if he did, should he tell them that he has a system?
Wouldn’t that just push him into a more dangerous state?
“Rezen, run, I will hold this traitor” Claude said, standing tall in front of Rezen as if he was a steady mountain
“Got it!” Rezen replied with a thumbs up. If it’s Claude, he still has a chance of surviving against the General but Rezen’s chance is zero
Why would he act heroically and stay here when he knew full well that he would be more of a hindrance than a help?
“If you dare to run away…” Leon said with a threatening tone. His fire and lion-type mystic gems flew in front of him, giving off a subtle light that feels particularly threatening
“A-ah… h-hahaha… w-who would run? I-I’ll stay… I’m absolutely not built for running hehehe” Rezen stays rooted in his place before he can even start to run
He was shedding tears inside him. Just why does he have to be entangled in this mess?
“Leon…” Claude said darkly, all of his mystic gems except for the curse-type gem floated around him
He is now back at his peak state but he is still not a match for Leon
However, it seems like Leon’s priorities have changed
“You there, give me your void storage ring. I want the treasures that you hold”
The value of Rezen’s treasure might even be higher than Claude’s threat
After all, that treasure completely healed Claude’s injuries in an instant. Leon has never seen such a treasure in the past
If Rezen has a lot of such treasures or he knows how to create them, that would benefit Leon even more
“Do you think I have tons of them? I only had that one even if you check my void storage!” Rezen said, lying effortlessly as he threw his void storage
What a joke! He and Claude are already at a disadvantage what more if Leon were to get a hold of his recovery pills?
Rezen is sure that if Leon receives his recovery pills, he would die immediately
Leon raised his brows, catching the spatial ring and checking the contents, and indeed, the treasure that Rezen used was not there. The ring only contains spirit plants
A frown appeared on Leon’s face. If there is no treasure then so be it
Time is running and the least that Leon could do is kill Claude
Leon clicked his fingers together and he cast his spell
His body suddenly starts to be covered in fire and that fire was in a beastly lion shape
Lion ears made from fire formed on Leon’s head, in his hands were fiery paws of fire and he even has a tail
He basically looks like a super saiyan but the ki has some lion-like features
“What the hell… this guy is going for the kill!” Rezen thought
He can feel it. This Leon definitely planned on killing him and Claude in one fell swoop
Claude might survive but Rezen will not!
Not to mention, from what way Claude looks, he seems to be not confident about staying alive under the General’s might
“This wouldn’t do…” Rezen thought, racking his brains for a solution when he remembered something
“Wait!!!” He shouted and Leon that was about to attack stopped and looked at him
“I-I lied… the treasure… I know how to get them but I can’t pass it on to you b-but… look here…”
Rezen raised his hand and an apple appeared on his palm and Leon stared at him coldly
The traitor thought that Rezen has another void storage that he was hiding
“T-this apple… this is an apple that I got by luck! Don’t think that it was a normal apple, it’s a special apple! It gives people enlightenment! I learned where the recovery treasure pill was from this apple! Eat it and you will definitely learn where to find a great treasure!” Rezen said in desperation
“Do you think that I’m a fool? Why would I eat that?” Leon said coldly. He is a veteran in this world
Rezen might be an ant but in this world, there are many poisons that not even Leon can recognize or know that it was poison even after he checked it
“You don’t believe me? Then fine!” Rezen directly bit the apple and he acts as if he was receiving some sort of guidance
His eyes were staring blankly into the air as his body shuddered
After a moment, he recovered back to normal and sighed
“I didn’t eat all of it and my enlightenment is not finished. If you want to use this apple, I suggest you eat it now, it will soon lose its value after the first bite!” Rezen said as he threw the apple
Although Leon is doubtful, he still unconsciously caught it in his hand. After all, the recovery pill that Rezen had was too great of a treasure
If Leon can find a treasure at the same level as that… who wouldn’t be tempted?
“Hurry! Eat it lest you blame me for not gaining anything!” Rezen urged anxiously as if he was really scared that the apple would lose its effect
Leon stared at the bitten apple in his hand. It looks the same as a normal apple, there seems to be nothing wrong with it
And since Rezen also ate it without being harmed… maybe this apple is not poisoned?
“Hurry! Hurry! Damn, I only have that one enlightenment apple remaining! Don’t waste it, I just want to save my life!”
Rezen had his actor mode on as he impatiently urge Leon to eat the apple he had already bitten earlier
