Chapter 90
“Lisian.”
I asked while looking around.
“Why isn’t Leon coming? Do you happen to know?”
“Leon?”
“Yeah, yeah.”
I was momentarily captivated by Lisian’s angelic appearance and forgot all about Leon and the Quest.
Lisian’s expression slightly darkened.
“Leon, uh, hurt his shoulder.”
“Ah… Right.”
“So earlier, it was getting ha, hard to stand anymore and anno, annoying, so he we, went back to his room.”
“Huh?”
My expression became serious as well.
“Is it that severe?”
He’s the type who would normally stay until the end of a banquet.
Even if he acts recklessly in private settings, maintaining proper etiquette in public occasions is Leon Frazier’s personality.
“The personal physician reco, recommended rest.”
“That serious…?”
I was genuinely worried for a moment.
Don’t tell me this guy…
He’s not going to die, is he?
Or become disabled?
Because in , even the Male Leads weren’t guaranteed survival.
When even Coriko, the Female Lead, had death events, the Male Leads died somewhat more frequently.
Of course, it couldn’t compare to Tulia who died with just a blink…
Moreover.
‘If his shoulder hurts…’
He can’t dance, right?
Then ten thousand coins would disappear.
And my Quest would end in failure…
At that moment.
Ding!
[System] Sub Quest
[System] 30 minutes remaining until Quest expires.
[System] 30:00
‘Huh?’
At that moment, the seconds began counting down like a time bomb.
No way!
I shot up from my seat.
* * *
Bang!
Bang bang!
Bang bang bang!
Bang bang bang bang bang bang!
“Ah, the door’s going to break!”
An irritated voice came from inside, then the door swung open.
“Which crazy bastard… Huh?”
I looked at Leon Frazier in front of me while breathing heavily.
‘It’s real.’
The first thing that caught my eye was the clearly freshly changed bandage on his shoulder.
I strode inside. Leon Frazier, who had been frozen for a moment, hurriedly followed me in.
“Hey, why are you here? Why aren’t you in the hall? Where’s my brother?”
“Where’s the personal physician.”
“No, what’s wrong that your expression is like that…”
At his disgusted expression like he was looking at some terrifying monster, I finally took a deep breath.
It seemed I had unconsciously run here too wildly.
“Sorry. I was startled.”
Having barely regained my composure, I apologized first.
“Why were you suddenly startled again?”
“Leon Frazier, you’re so hurt you can’t even dance.”
Then Leon Frazier scratched his cheek slightly and said.
“I said it’s hard to stand, not that I can’t dance.”
“That’s even worse! Where did the personal physician go!”
“He went to brew medicine? Why?”
Leon Frazier, who had been asking back, suddenly furrowed his brow.
“What’s that basket you’re carrying under your arm?”
“Medicinal materials I have.”
“What?”
“I really swept up everything I had.”
This time I thoroughly scraped together even what the personal physician had secretly stashed away.
“What did you say?”
Leon Frazier’s eyes immediately widened as he shouted.
“Hey, take it away quickly! I really have no money now!”
He seemed to immediately realize these were tremendous medicinal materials that would make Leon’s personal physician’s eyes roll back if he saw them.
Is the personal physician that scary?
Leon Frazier tried to kick me out entirely with a pale face.
But.
Nothing in this world can stop Tulia who’s gone crazy over coins.
Why? Because I decided so. Anyway, nothing exists.
I pushed past Leon Frazier who was trying to kick me out and walked majestically inside.
And stopped in the living room.
Leon hurriedly followed me while weakly repeating that he had no money so I should take it away.
“Leon.”
I didn’t listen.
I just opened my mouth.
“One hundred twenty million gold.”
“Crazy! I really said I have no money!”
“It’s all free.”
“What?”
Crash.
…I couldn’t bring myself to actually spill the medicinal materials.
Instead, thunk.
I just placed the basket on the living room table.
“I’ll give you all of this.”
Leon Frazier hesitated and stepped back.
“What now. What do you want?”
‘Sharp guy.’
It seems he’s already figured out that I want something in return for giving him the medicinal materials for free.
Well, considering our usual relationship, it would be a perfectly natural deduction, but all I could see in my eyes was ‘Quest Complete’.
“Dance with me.”
“What?”
“Is this not enough? Then I’ll pay you! Let’s dance!”
Leon Frazier muttered with his large frame.
“Is this girl really crazy…?”
“I said I’ll pay you!”
“How much can you give!”
“Ten thousand gold!”
“Are you kidding? That’s not even enough for one meal at the Academy!”
“Then how much do you want!”
“One hundred million gold!”
“Are you insane?”
I immediately lit fires in both my eyes.
“Your dance isn’t worth that much, you know? Could you please come to your senses?”
“Wow, now you’re acting like the Tulia Frazier I know.”
Leon Frazier let out a hollow laugh as if amazed, then walked toward the table.
Leon poured cold tea from a porcelain teapot with elegant floral patterns embossed on it and held out a cup to me.
“Drink some.”
I took the cup and drank it.
Only then did I feel somewhat calmed down.
“Hey, sit down for a moment. Seriously. I really thought a wild beast had burst into my room.”
“Leon Frazier.”
I obediently sat on the sofa and spoke in a serious voice.
“There’s no such thing as a wild beast this pretty in the world.”
“…Right, right. You’re the prettiest. Happy now?”
“Anyway, dance with me. Does your shoulder hurt a lot? Enough to dislocate it immediately if you dance with me? Enough to die?”
“…Not enough to die immediately, but why exactly?”
Leon Frazier looked at the basket full of medicinal materials with an expression that showed he couldn’t understand at all.
“Why do you need to dance with me so badly that you’re even offering money?”
“Think about it, Leon.”
I held the teacup in my hand and straightened my shoulders.
“Today is the first banquet I’m hosting for Grandfather’s birthday.”
“So?”
“I need to save face. I should dance with each of my brothers in turn to save face.”
“Hey. Am I your tool?”
“Tool?”
Ha.
I answered with a truly incredulous expression.
“You’re just my accessory. What do you mean, tool.”
“Wow…”
Leon Frazier shook his head as if he couldn’t count how many times he’d been dumbfounded.
“Fine, let’s go. Let’s go.”
“Really?”
My eyes widened.
I didn’t expect him to agree to dance so readily.
He said it hurt, is he okay?
Is it really just walking that’s difficult and dancing is fine?
Even I was getting confused.
“Yeah, let’s go dance. Geez. Did some ghost who died from not being able to dance with me possess you?”
No ghost possessed me, but a Quest did!
I jumped up with an excited heart.
“Wait. Let me just put my outer garment back on.”
“Okay!”
Leon Frazier sighed “Geez” several times.
But why are the corners of his mouth turning up like that?

Leon is still trash but he might be the recyclable kind, we shall see…
