Leveling Up with My Adorable Monster Girl Harem!

Chapter 121: Combo skill?

Leon woke up in a tight embrace, feeling warm and comfortable.

He felt like he hadn't slept that well in a good while, but who could fight and experience so many events in such a short time and come out victorious in nearly every aspect? It was given that his night would be good after those events, and as the latest event involved Celes, which bonded her deeper with her master, Leon was simply in good hands.

"Good morning, Master… You've slept for more than twelve hours." Celes' sweet fragrance filled Leon's nose first, seemingly carrying her voice, too, as his mind became full of sweetness.

He stared into her deep cleavage for a while, dazed, then lifted his eyes and faintly smiled at the grinning vampiress, whose red eyes melted from taking care of her master. "Morning, Celes. Thanks for helping me."

Now that Leon was past those events, he became more like himself, and genuinely felt a need to thank his vampiress for her help. Although he wasn't dense to know what it meant for Celes to enter his heart — and that she was aware of it as well — Leon also risked a lot by that move.

He was a newbie when it came to divinities, let alone Eros' powers.

He understood that Celes' would become much stronger within his heart and be able to deal with Eros, but what if she failed to answer his call? It wouldn't mean that she didn't like him or feel any affection. It simply took some time to develop strong feelings.



If she failed, their relationship would receive a lot of backlashes. There was a chance they would no longer be able to adventure together and nurture their feelings. To say nothing of not crossing the line, there would be simply nothing to cross. Thus, Leon felt like thanking his vampiress.

After all, relationships are about mutual respect and consent and filling gaps in each other's hearts while accepting the flaws, which makes the second half cuter.

Celes didn't like her master actually thanking her for killing Eros and inhaled deeply, then simply smiled at him as she had been aware of this particular flaw and where it came from. "He hurt me, too, so I had to vent out on him."

"You went all out, didn't you?" Leon smirked, consciously changing the topic, which Celes couldn't easily handle.

He chose careful words as Celes' cheeks became scarlet and ensured she didn't feel bad about her language or madness that took over her. Leon added strength to his embrace and kept Celes from turning away from him, teasing some morning neck-sucking.

"It's adorable how you changed and lost your usual noble aura because of me. I feel proud of that, Celes. And you can't blame me for thanking you… You know what was on stake." Leon caught a few of his vampiress' black streaks and enjoyed them sliding between his fingers.

Celes became a little more serious and nodded. "I know." And her usual smile became wider.

Leon couldn't help but chuckle, too.

So much had happened after his visit to The Oracle's temple, yet he only thought of Celes and what he should do next to progress their relationship. Of course, Leon knew what to do, but he needed more time and also to have Louise by his side as she was a crucial part of his new life, just to see that there wouldn't be any real conflicts between the fox girl and the vampiress.

This mindset was the reason he refused Aphrodite's call and became Eros, whose divinity also significantly changed.

"I'm kinda hungry…"

"I'll order the dragon maid-"
"I want to eat you."

"Ah… Master…"

"Is it too early for the vampiress' blood?"

"Aren't you the one dead keen on a schedule?" Celes' purred, tilted her little head, and revealed her slightly blushing neck, then smiled, inviting her master to devour her.

Leon's hot breath slapped her red nape. "Bad girls always fuck up my schedule."

"Ahhh!"

Leon still had a lot of information and stuff to confirm, but he decided to start his adventure after his morning snack. He left Celes alone as she needed to bathe and restore a few of her health points because Leon became quite passionate with her and sucked on her flesh and blood too much.

"Thank you for your hard work, too, Alexandra." Leon found his dragon maid alone a few meters away from his sleeping bag, squatting.

In fact, she wasn't alone.

Alexandra had a group of kitties surrounding her. Leon noticed a kitty momma and daddy, then a few more small and lovely animals meowing for more milk. The dragon maid used her expenses and bought milk and plates for those adorable fluffy cats and overlooked them while Leon and Celes tended to their business.

Celes had been pretty loud, so Leon didn't doubt Alexandra took cats far away from her.

"Morning." Leon faintly smiled.

Alexandra wheeled at him, stood up, and patted her clothes. "Good morning, Master! I don't have any work now, and these guys approached me, so I gave them a little meal! I used my own money and bought it from the system shop."

"Haha! They're so cute that I would have done the same. Next time, I'll get them some stuff." Leon told his dragon maid that she didn't have to explain herself over such simple and hospitable manners and even offered her help. "Do you want to take them with you?"

"Can I?" Alexandra glanced at the kitties and uncontrollably smiled. "I'd love to, Master!"

"I'll invest into our carriage, so everyone will find a place for themselves, including those kitties." Leon shared a few of his plans, squatted, and stroked the kitty momma's back.

Under his touch, the animal purred and allowed an unfamiliar human to pet her.

The cat dad also wanted some love! Alexandra noticed it and made the same motion as her master, but she also added a few scratches, for she was familiar with this animal already.

Her smile deepened as she took care of unknown animals. "Do you know, Master? I feel like this is exactly what I should be doing. I am just a dragon who lost against the evil soul. I should show that girl that there's a lot of nice stuff in the world — that even weak and normal animals have souls and are adorable and worth protecting — to give a helping hand to people like those kitties and to myself, who want to help the evil dragon, too!'"

She turned to her master and found out that Leon already had a kitty momma and small kitties, all wanting to cuddle with him. She grew slightly jealous of that, but Alexandra knew that asking for it was nothing more than asking for trouble and that the evil dragon within her would use all her might to stop her from going for that.

And while fighting against Alexandra Aquarisen within her was easy, Alexandra couldn't change her origins and ask for more than she could.

"It's one of many perspectives I told you to look out after." Leon nodded and continued with a faint smile. "Those weak and soft animals can cure souls. They live in a harsh and cruel world where wild monsters are a common threat to everyone. But to sustain their family and keep their fluffs safe, they even approached you, the dragon, not sure whether you would scoff at them and kill with breath or take care of them. They just want to live and don't feel entitled to anything…."

Alexandra gazed deeply at her master.

Then, Celes joined them and stared at her master with kitties curling in his hands. She found a good spot next to him, then took out the booze and filled her mouth with that sharp liquid, glazing her lips.

"Want to hold one?" Leon asked his vampiress.

Celes shook her head. "Booze feels better in my hands."

"You're losing so much." Leon shrugged and turned to Alexandra, passing her one of the kitties that found a nice spot on her ample breasts.

Grinning, Alexandra wheeled to the vampiress and shared the news. "Master said he's gonna invest in a bigger carriage and that I can take kitties with myself. Does the mistress have a problem with them? I'll do my best to ensure they won't be a bother to you."

"I don't." Celes replied after moaning at the alcohol getting into her veins. "I'm not that petty. But if they take away master for too long, I'll complain."

Alexandra didn't have a reply to this as it was all in her master's hands, right?

Leon teased the vampiress. "You haven't had enough?" And as Celes nearly choked on her booze, he continued. "I'll keep you busy as it's time to leverage my new powers. In other words, it's time to bond and create a combo skill."

"Combo… skill…" Celes found that name cringe but didn't say anything aloud.

On the other hand, Alexandra's eyes twinkled. "This sounds so cool, Master!"

Leon chortled as he nodded. "Honestly, you're my dragon maid and will adventure with me for a long time. I might be able to develop a combo skill with you too, Alexandra. But now that I thought about it, I have a good idea."

Alexandra's eyes became stars as the concept of combining skills and working with her master excited her altruistic heart. "I'll wait for you to share this with me, Master. I look forward to you teaching me!"

"I'll think more about this idea and share it with you at an appropriate time. For now, I want you two to help me deal with that long hair. I don't like it."

"I hate this." Celes couldn't hide her comment.

"I think short hair looks better on you, Master." Alexandra felt obliged to share her view, too.

Leon laughed and gathered his hair into a ponytail. "Bring out the scissors, girls."
