"Dongdong, little princesses, wake up~ Get ready to eat."
An extremely familiar call came from outside the door.
"Okay~"
Her body responded before her consciousness. Leona slowly opened her eyes, rubbed the corners of her eyes and sat up on the unfamiliar and comfortable soft bed.
Leona, who was still a little conscious, patted her cheek, pushed her hair from her forehead to her temples, and squinted at Diana, who was wearing only gray moon pajamas and stretched lazily.

Lowering her head, she was wearing another golden sun pajamas sewn by Diana's father. It seemed to be made of velvet and the wings of some rare bird or beast. It was warm and soft. She had never seen it before.
But couldn't put it down.
He looked at Diana who woke up, then put on her slippers and walked out of the house, heading to the bathroom on the first floor to wash up.
Applying the green herbal paste in the earthen jar to the soft-bristled fine brush called a 'toothbrush', Leona filled her porcelain cup with water and started brushing her teeth and washing her face, and arranged her appearance in front of the glass mirror.
, sat at the dining table with Diana.
Like a princess's knight, the kind and handsome man had already placed the delicious food on the table, greeted each other, and the three of them started to have breakfast happily.
Everything feels so natural, as if I have lived here for more than ten years, but the fact is that I have only been here for a month.
A month ago, he was living in a stone house in the Temple of the Sun in Mount Targon, accompanied by the scriptures of the Sun and the teachings of the Titans. Now he is living a life of luxury that he could never imagine, and has a life that he has never had before.
My nickname is Lena.
As Diana's father said, the legendary princess of the kingdom is probably nothing more than that.
Compared with the dream life here, life in the past seems a bit too hasty and boring.
Her eyes stayed on the man's gentle face. For a moment, Leona even wanted the man in front of her to become her real father. However, the black-haired girl in her peripheral vision made her wake up. She was just a guest who came to study.
You have to leave sooner or later.
This is Diana's home, and the room on the second floor belongs to Cortana, not Rena. After all, Diana's initial words were just polite words.
"What's wrong? Didn't you sleep well yesterday? Or are you sick?"
Noticing something unusual about Leona's face, Lester put down the bowl quickly with a worried look on his face and put his hand on the girl's forehead, making the girl lower her head shyly and whispered.
"No, brother Lester, I just had a sweet dream, but unfortunately I forgot it when I woke up..."
"That's it."
Hearing this, the man relaxed and sat back in his seat. The warmth from the big hands on his forehead gradually dissipated, and Leona suddenly felt a sense of reluctance.
"Everyone dreams, whether it is a sweet dream or a nightmare, it is just a dream. Regrets cannot be changed. The result of persistence can only be regretting in the darkness again and again, and letting oneself fall deeper.
I also often dream about many things in the past. Those beautiful days that I did not cherish have become the past. I can only see them again and embrace them in my dreams.
When I open my eyes, the cold reality will make me forget the beauty in my dreams... Haha, this can be considered a kind of comfort to me. Only when I don't think about some things can I feel better. If I think about it too much, I won't be able to laugh.
…
In order to get rid of this predicament, I learned to accept the present and cherish all the good things I have now. This is my expectation for myself.
If I let down the present for the sake of the past, then I would be so sad...
Haha, Lena, just think of it as an old guy moaning in pain."
Unable to look away, the man was obviously smiling, but Leona saw indescribable heaviness and sadness in the man's eyes. Her heart tightened, and she had a hunch that the man's dream must be very painful.
The person in the dream must be a man’s unforgettable regret.
After the little interlude at the dinner party, Lester went to wash the dishes, while Leona and Diana returned to the second floor to start changing clothes.
The three of them gathered on the grass in front of the door. When the two little ones finished their warm-up exercises, Lester also became serious.
"I have trained your fighting skills for almost a month. Today I will test your academic performance in actual combat. Lena, carefully observe how Xiaona attacks me and try to find the advantages and disadvantages."
"Um!"
Leona nodded and stared intently at the two people who started to confront each other.
"Xiao Na, let's start."
"Dad, be careful."
Knowing how powerful her father was, Diana did not dare to show any intention of letting go. She rushed towards the man in a fighting stance and began to attack tentatively, trying to find a weakness.
Soon Leona's eyes widened. The black-haired girl's simple whip kick actually made a sound of breaking through the air. What was even more incomprehensible was that the man just moved his heels to avoid the attack that was directed towards his knees.
, leaving Diana in vain.
If this attack was aimed at herself, she would definitely not be able to dodge it and would have to take it head-on. Judging from the powerful and heavy sound of breaking through the air, the outcome of a head-on attack would definitely not be good.
"Too slow! Use your advantage!"
“Aha!
"
Twisting her body and generating strength from the ground, Diana clenched her right fist and smacked the man's abdomen, tapping her left foot lightly on the ground, preparing to continue her attack with a flick kick.
The man with an unchanged expression stepped back half a step and pressed one knee to the ground. While staggering his punches, he held Diana's forearms and slightly raised calves with both hands, and used extremely beautiful throwing skills to knock the black-haired girl down on the grass.
superior,
The fall directly caused the soil to scatter everywhere, forming a human-shaped shallow pit, but he had no intention of holding back.
Leona's head started to tremble, and a thin layer of cold sweat broke out on her forehead. Different from her usual gentleness, the man was a bit scary when he was fighting and teaching.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! No wonder I am never a match for Diana. Growing up in such a training environment, compared with the aggressive Diana, I am just a sheep who grew up in a pen.
Just sheep.
After helping the dizzy Diana up from the ground, Lester looked at Leona and smiled slightly.
"Rena, do you feel a little scary?"
Shaking her head, Leona patted her small chest.
"I'm not afraid. On the contrary, I really like your training method, brother."
"That's good, little Lena, tell me what you saw."
After thinking for a few seconds, Leona said seriously.
"Xiao Na's attack just now was very powerful. I think it's very unusual. I mean, generally speaking, children of our age can't rely on training to reach that point. Just kicking the ball makes the air whirring."
Smiling and nodding, Lester touched Diana's little head.
"That's right. Xiaona gained strong physical fitness because of taking the potion I prepared. What else?"
Leona, who gained some confidence, continued.
"There is an absolute height difference between Xiaona and Brother Lester, so Xiaona chose to use her legs with a larger attack range as an attack method. At the same time, she also lowered her body to make it harder for you, brother Lester, who was unwilling to use her legs.
By touching Xiaona's body, we can make up for the gap between us to a certain extent."
"That's right. Use your strengths and avoid weaknesses as much as possible in battle. In short, the most ideal way is 'I can hit you, but you can't hit me.' Tall people have their own ways, and short people have their own ways.
Xiaona kicked my knee to take away my mobility. This is very important, isn’t it?"
Biting her lower lip in embarrassment, Leona shook her head. The subsequent throwing moves were too fast, and she did not find the key point. She only felt that in the blink of an eye, Diana, who was attacking so quickly, was thrown to the ground.
"Don't be discouraged. Analyzing to this point is considered a gift. Xiaona, tell Lena why you failed."
After patting the dirt on her back, Diana spoke.
"My disguised attack intention was so obvious that my father could see it at a glance. The most important thing was that I failed to change my center of gravity quickly, allowing my father to catch my flaw in an instant."
Clapping his hands encouragingly, Lester concluded.
"That's absolutely correct. The so-called battle is to seize the flaw and kill with one blow. It's easier said than done, but it's much harder to do.
Everyone will make mistakes in battle. If you want to win in a battle of the same physical level, what you have to do is not to be better than others, but to make yourself make fewer mistakes than the enemy.
Even if a flaw is exposed, you must know that this flaw was deliberately exposed to fool the enemy. In addition, any tricks and false moves are just a small part of an effective attack, making the enemy lose the ability to resist or even lose their life.
, this is the true meaning of fighting,
This is also what you lack, little Lena."
"Been taught a lesson."
He bowed to Lester politely, and the next moment Leona was helped up by Lester, and the man said something that surprised Leona.
"Leina, you and I don't need to be so polite. Next, Xiaona will be your enemy. Xiaona, you can only passively defend and cannot actively attack. You are allowed to use throwing and throwing skills. Do you understand?"
Reinvigorated, Diana rubbed her little fists.
"Hehe, understand, I will throw little Lena out hard!"
"Xiao Lena, you can use any body part to attack without any restrictions. Let me go and show you what you are capable of. Don't worry about hurting Xiao Na. As long as you don't die on the spot, I have a way to cure any fatal
hurt."
Leona, who was aroused by Diana's provocative actions and was not willing to be outdone, nodded and raised her fists.
Taking a few steps back, Lester issued an order.
"start!"
…
Practicing actual combat in the morning, learning how to hunt in the afternoon, and feeling the boundary between life and death. In just one day, Leona felt that she had grown up a lot.
The sun began to set, and facing the red glow, Lester walked in front carrying a dead burrito on his back, followed by two little girls who were panting and covered in mud. The three of them returned to Bali Village.
She thought her embarrassed appearance would cause some commotion, but to Leona's surprise, the people in the village didn't seem surprised at all.
The villagers of Barry Village have obviously been accustomed to Lester's behavior, which makes Leona, who pays attention to appearance, feel a lot more at ease. After all, she is not the only one who is in such a mess.
When he arrived at the center of the village, a young man with a complicated face came to Lester.
"Sir Sir Leicester, my wife is sick again, um... can you please help Amy treat her illness again tonight?"
Leona looked at the man in front of her and said that this was a custom in Barry Village. Women seemed to be more likely to get sick than men.
"Sorry, I have to take care of these two little guys tonight. They need my help more than Ms. Amy. Please help me tell Ms. Amy, next time, definitely next time."
What surprised Leona was that the man who was rejected for medical treatment breathed a sigh of relief and nodded gratefully.
"Then I will take my leave, Lord Leicester, and thank you for your generosity and kindness."
Noticing Leona's confused look, Diana covered her mouth and smiled secretly, causing Leona to poke the black-haired girl's soft flesh with some dissatisfaction.
"Why are you laughing? It turns out that he is still so happy even after being rejected. He must not like his wife Amy."
Diana held her hands behind her back, looking like a little adult.
"Hehe, you are wrong about this, little Lena, because he loves his wife, he will only feel happy after his father rejects her."
"Nonsense! How can there be such a love that will never save you?"
Turning back to look at the two little girls arguing, Lester felt a little funny. Unlike Diana, who had been led astray by him, Leona was still very pure now.
He decided to interrupt the argument between the two women in a small way.
"Xiaona, Lena, drink the herbal medicine tonight and don't complain about it."
"Okay daddy~"
"Brother Lester, I'm not afraid of hardship~"
"You're so good. I'm going to make braised pork belly in the evening. After a long day's work, the three of us have something good to eat."
"oh!
*2"
The happy family walked towards the ice spring hut and returned home in the hazy night.
After filling the bathtub with a full pool of hot water, Lester sprinkled the medicinal herbs for promoting blood circulation, removing blood stasis, strengthening muscles and strengthening bones into the bathtub, along with flower petals, and urged the two little ones to take a bath quickly.
After Diana and Leona started playing and quarreling in the bath, Lester opened the medicine jar where the herbal medicine was being boiled, slit his wrist with a magic steel dagger, and added blood to the medicine jar.
After nearly a month of continuous preparation, he had basically found the most suitable combination of medicinal materials and blood concentration.
The new formula allows Leona to digest and absorb her own blood as quickly as possible without being harmed by the blood, because the herbs increase the threshold of blood damage to the body, allowing Leona to gain stronger endurance.
It is worth mentioning that high temperature will not destroy the magical structure of blood, so he can make potions from his own blood and give them to others to drink.
If he wanted to, he could even control the entire village of Barry through blood, which also made him deeply aware of the horror of this power.
No wonder Nora was too vigilant. In fact, even if he encountered this situation himself, he would be helpless until he found a way to replace his bloodline.
