Extra's Harem: Invincibility Starts with Marriage and lots of Children-Chapter 24 - - Ghost Sect Leader

'Huh?'

Seated within the carriage, Olea was just processing the reason how someone whose cultivation levels she can sense to be in hardly the beginning was able to not only kill so many assassins without breaking a single sweat but just now, when they were in the capital city, where she thought he would try to hide his strength considering so many eyes were on them, he just killed another person.

It was as if he was confident in his strength.

But what strength?

She herself, in her lifetime as an assassin, had fled a few times after encountering super strong foes, prioritizing her survival.

She never once met someone who could kill another person without a blink, as if it were a dream.

The possibility of him moving faster than her eyes could see was evident, which she thought could be the case.

She had ignored it until now, focusing on enhancing her senses to feel exactly how he was doing it.

But now that he had done it in the capital city, where it was prohibited to kill someone and the whole area was under the supervision of the elders of the Royal family, something was definitely confusing here.

Adding to her confusion was the fact that he just jumped out of the carriage after seeing some individuals buying flowers at a shop, mistaking them for hooligans.

Yet in this world, where it was a normal sight for people to be killed, he himself had killed so many individuals.

Showing such a sight like a naive young man was confusing.

"What did you say?" One of the bulky men, with a sore mark near his eyes, looked towards his comrade, not understanding why this young man, who seemed to come out of the carriage belonging to the Arcutus family, was mistaking them for evil people.

"Grandma, are you alright?"

Leon, on the other hand, ignoring these people, made his way toward the old woman, supporting her by placing one hand on her shoulder while trying to help her seat herself at a nearby table.

'Shit, why isn't she budging?'

He found this old woman's body like solid rock, not even budging as her hunched back looked at him with narrowed eyes.

As she glanced towards the carriage, observing the insignia and feeling the presence of a strong cultivator within the carriage, she closed her eyes, taking a seat.

'Is he Kyle?'

The old woman couldn't help but observe such naive gestures from this young man, who was the illegitimate son of Duke Arctus returning from the northern borders, as per the widely known news.

Unlike what she had heard, he appeared completely unaware of this world.

Given how, if she were to be hired for his assassination, for example, she could have easily used this situation to exploit his naivety to kill him.

Now it was becoming evident, considering several eyes were now on them.

Though they could not kill him here, it was clear they knew how to lure this young man into a trap.

'What a fool!'

The old woman couldn't help but close her eyes, seeing how foolish and dumb such gestures were from this young man who acted naïvely and showed his weakness to everyone.

That innocence could easily be used against him.

"Younger master, I think there is a misunderstanding here," one of the bulky men realized that if it was outside, or not for the fact that this man belonged to Duke Arcutus' family, they could have taught him a lesson.

But now, it appeared things would escalate, considering there were several eyes on them, observing every movement.

They did not want to be entangled with the politics of aristocracy.

This led one with an understanding of the situation to try to calm it down.

Nor did he expect any understanding from the fooled young man who judged them on their looks.

"Oh, I may have made a mistake then, apologies," Leon slightly widened his gaze before giving a nod as if blankly accepting he had mistakenly confused those bulky men, who were expecting to see this matter escalate.

Now, they were completely calmed as the young man turned his gaze towards the old woman, who was now seated.

"Y-yes," the bulky men, looking around, saw the crowd glancing in their direction with intense gazes fixed on them.

They swiftly nodded and left the place, giving a side glance to the old woman, who just tilted her head, causing them to nod in a secret gesture before leaving.

"May I inquire what young master wants?"

The old woman asked, her eyes slowly opening as she looked towards the standing young man.

"Nothing, just wanted to see you, Grandma."

Leon flashed a smile, showing his teeth, appearing completely guardless.

His naivety was evident from the innocence that came from deep within his soul, portraying himself as the dumbest individual one could ever see.

"See me? I don't understand, young master?"

The old woman found the young man's tone confusing, considering her eyes glanced around, finding too many onlookers.

Such gestures from this young man could create problems for her as she tried to acquire clarification.

"Where is Mia? She doesn't seem to be around?"

Leon looked around with his eyes as if searching for someone, tilting his head as he peeked within the shop but found no one.

Before turning towards the old woman, whose eyes slightly widened, a flicker of bewilderment crossed her face as she could see her fingers clenching before relaxing.

"I don't know any Mia, young man," the old woman replied, closing her eyes, clearly rejecting to recognize this name.

Her mind wanted to inquire several things, but given the numerous eyes on them—not just from the people moving in the crowd, but from nearby hotels, and even from the woman seated in that carriage—she found it clearly not the right time to inquire, let alone mention it.

"Huh? But... I see, I apologize for the confusion then."

Leon suddenly saw the old woman's glance of confusion directed at him.

He nodded before turning to leave the shop, but before that, he looked towards a particular flower vase resting on the counter and inquired, "How much taels is that flower?"

This 𝓬ontent is taken from freeweɓnovel.cѳm.

"Two taels," replied the old woman, her eyes following the young man's line of sight to notice a white lily nearby, causing her to look again toward his face, yet she seemed not to recall it.

"I see, Lady Olea! Can you purchase it for me?"

Leon called out before turning towards the carriage, considering he didn't have money and intentionally wanting to summon the woman within the carriage to clarify.

To those keeping an eye here, he thought he may have a chance to kill this kind man.

'!?!'

It was as if a surge of exclamations was evident within the individuals in the crowd, people keeping an eye through surveillance and even the old woman, whose eyes widened at the mention of the energy they sensed within the carriage.

Tak!

A sound of metal clanked in thin air as a gold tael plunged through the carriage doors, directly caught by Leon, as he placed it on the table.

His eyes clearly saw the violent gaze of the old woman, with his domain sensing so many telling intents directed towards him now turned into nothing as they seemed to distance themselves away from him.

After all, this was fear of the Guild leader of Ghost Sect.
