"I'll leave it to you, Asuna." The smile on Akizo Yuuki's face disappeared, and he suddenly became very serious.

Asuna is his most beloved daughter, he naturally hopes that Leo can take good care of her and give her a happy future.

"Yes." Leo nodded solemnly in response to him.

"His Majesty the King is here!"

Just then, a voice came from outside the hall.

Then a group of people came in, the leader was a middle-aged man with gray hair, dressed in luxurious clothes, with a crown inlaid with gemstones on his head.

Everyone consciously retreated to the sides to make way for those who came.

"Your Majesty the King."

Seeing King Aincrad walking straight in front of him, Yuuki Shozo, Yuuki Kyoko, and Leo saluted him inside.

Although with Leo's current strength, the king of a mere country is not worthy of his salute.

However, Leo still knows the point of observing words and expressions.

After all, this is Asuna's hometown, and her family's business is rooted here. Leo can't do anything that would cause trouble to her family.

Besides, it was said to be a salute, but it was only a slight bow.

"Mr. Yuki, congratulations." King Aincrad said to Akizo Yuki with a smile.

"Thank you, Your Majesty the King." Yuuki Akizo hurriedly thanked the king.

"Mr. Leo, congratulations." King Aincrad looked at Leo again.

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

When Leo was in the Aincrad Naval Branch, he helped suppress the rebellion within Aincrad.

Thanks to the efforts of the naval soldiers headed by Leo, the power of this country was not overthrown.

Aincrad's gratitude to Leo is self-evident.

This time, the king came to personally thank Leo, his benefactor.

After greeting the king for a while, Leo walked away, leaving Yuki Shozo and the king alone.

Because of that rebellion, the Yuki family was granted the title of nobility, and Yuki Shozo became Aincrad's finance minister.Now they were going to talk about something important to the country, and Leo had no interest in being there.

"Lieutenant General Leo!" Suddenly, Leo heard someone calling him.

"Colonel Jeter, Colonel Thomas, Colonel Carroll, no, it should be Brigadier General Carroll."

Leo looked along the source of the sound and saw his former subordinates in the Aincrad Navy Division.

"I'm not a lieutenant general anymore, I'm just a bounty wanted by the government." Leo said with a smile.

"In our hearts, you will always be the heroic Lieutenant General Leo." Carol took the lead.

"congratulations."

Carol, Thomas, and Jeter said to Leo with a smile.

As a high-level executive of the Aincrad Navy Division, it was reasonable for Akizo Yuki to invite them to attend Asuna and the engagement ceremony, and Leo was not surprised.

Now that they met, Leo talked to them for a while.

Although he has defected from the navy, Leo still regards the three of them as friends.

"Huh?" Just as Leo and Jeter were chatting happily, someone patted him on the shoulder.

When Leo turned his head to look over, his eyes widened in surprise, with an expression of disbelief...

Chapter 275 The Engagement Ceremony Concluded Perfectly

After seeing the face of the person who patted him on the shoulder, Leo's eyes widened in surprise, with an expression of disbelief on his face.

As for why Leo is like this, it is because...

"Leo, long time no see."

An extremely familiar voice came to Leo's ears.

"Hmph, you dare to disappoint my lord sister, Jubia will never forgive you."

Standing in front of Leo were two amazingly beautiful women with perfect figures.

Both have beautiful long blue hair, but one is ice blue and the other is water blue.

Wearing a blue and white navy uniform and a navy overcoat.

These two women, Leo has long been very familiar with, it is Jubia of Esdeth.

"You...why are you here?" Leo's forehead was covered with cold sweat.

"What? Don't you want me to come?" Estes stared at Leo with an inexplicable smile on his face.

"Of course he doesn't want my sister to come. After all, she will soon be the son-in-law of the Yuki family." Jubia looked at Leo with disdain.

That look is like looking at a heartless man.

But is it unfair for Estes, or for herself, or... both.

"It's nothing, why would I not want to see you." Leo said with a smile, but his smile seemed rather forced.

"I didn't expect to see you in two months, and you will be someone else's fiancé. I'm really happy for you, Leo." Estes still smiled.

However, that seemingly amazing smile really made people feel scared in Leo's view.

Even Leo could feel the killing intent in Esdeth's eyes.

Even the temperature of the air around him suddenly dropped.

Seeing that something was wrong, Jeter, Carol, and Thomas stepped aside immediately.

"I just said why Lieutenant General Esdes came with us, it turned out to be the case." Jeter said.

"I thought Lieutenant General Esdes was here to congratulate him because of his relationship with Lieutenant General Leo," Carroll said.

"What are you talking about?" Thomas looked at the two of them.

………………

Back to yesterday afternoon.

A warship approached Aincrad's naval branch pier.

It was a warship with a special shape, painted in blue and white as a whole, and there was this huge sculpture of a Valkyrie holding a long sword on the bow.

As long as they are in the navy, it is impossible not to know the name of this warship.

That is the most powerful supernova in the navy—code-named 'Blue Bird', the warship of Vice Admiral Esthers of the Navy Headquarters.

"Lieutenant General Estes!"

As soon as Esdeath, Juvia, and her subordinates stepped off the warship, the commander of the Aincrad Naval Division immediately greeted them.

"Well, you are the commander of this branch?" Esdeath asked.

"Your Excellency, Lieutenant General, my name is Carol, and I am the commander of this division." Carol replied.

"We have already arranged the lounge, please come with me, Lieutenant General." So Carol led Esdes and his party to the branch.

After coming to the lounge, Estes, Jubia, and Carol sat on the sofa.

"I came this time under the order of Admiral Akainu to capture the naval traitor Monkey D. Leo. According to intelligence, he came to this island. Is that so?" As soon as he sat down, Esdes immediately Asked.

"That's...that's right." Originally, Carol wanted to cover up Leo, but he could see that Esdesh had already confirmed that Leo was on this island, so asking him was just to make sure.

"Hehe." After receiving a positive reply from Carol, Esdeath smiled.

Carol was also amazed by Esther's beautiful smile.

But he knew that Estes was not something he could afford, so he didn't have any extravagant thoughts.

"So where is he now?" Estes asked again.

"For Bailong, I'm staying at Yuki's house now." Carol answered truthfully.

"Since he's here, he will definitely go to Asuna's house." Estes nodded.

Asuna and Leo's relationship, Estes is very clear, Leo must come here to pick up Asuna to leave.

"It's getting late today, we'll catch the white dragon tomorrow," Esdeth ordered.

This is the case within the navy. As a lieutenant general of the navy headquarters, Esdes naturally has the power to command a branch.

"This..." Carol hesitated.

"What? Does Brigadier General Carol want to disobey the orders of his superiors?" Esthers narrowed his eyes slightly and looked at Carol.

Carol immediately felt a chill.

"It's not like that, Lieutenant General. It's just...tomorrow we're going to Yuki's house to attend the engagement ceremony, and it's a little sudden to arrest someone..." Carol said immediately.

"Engaged? Whose?" Esdeath suddenly had a bad feeling.

"Yes, it's the eldest lady of the Yuki family, and the navy traitor Bailong." Carol hesitated, but said it out.

Hearing Carol's words, Esther fell silent for a moment.

Then, a burst of cold air slowly emerged from her body, and a layer of frost formed on the surface of the tea in the teacup on the table.

………………

"I had no choice but to agree." Leo looked at Esdeth with some guilt.

Estes was the first person to express his heart to him, and Leo also said that he would give her a reply.

However, now that he is about to get engaged to Asuna, this is undoubtedly not disappointing her heart.

It was because of this that Leo felt guilty.

"Oh? Do you still have a reason?" Esdeth narrowed his eyes slightly, his gaze was extremely sharp.

After Leo finished telling what happened, Estes fell silent.
