After a moment, he regained his composure, looked at Jim with an indifferent gaze, and asked, "Are you really sure you want to go to the battlefield, Jim?"

As his most trusted subordinate, Velix was reluctant to let him go directly to the battlefield.

After all, Jim was not only the prime minister but also the Empire\'s strategist, making him the most important person after him—the Holy Emperor.

Without Jim, the Holy Empire of Elysium would undoubtedly face an unimaginable crisis.

Jim simply smiled, nodded, and replied with his hands clasped, "I am certain of my decision, Your Majesty. I seek your permission to go to the battlefield."

Hearing this, Velix fell silent again, deep in thought. After a moment, he came to his senses, let out a small sigh, and nodded slightly.

"Very well, Jim. I will allow you to go to the battlefield," Velix said nonchalantly. His eyes narrowed as he added, "But remember to take care of yourself. I don\'t want to receive any reports of your death from the battlefield. Do you understand?"

Although he was reluctant, Velix knew that Jim\'s departure to the battlefield could enable humanity\'s troops to counterattack the Demon forces and achieve victory.

Jim nodded slightly, bowed his head, and replied, "Yes, Your Majesty. As you command."

Velix nodded in satisfaction and continued, "On your way to the battlefield, I want you to bring 30,000 troops to serve as both your guards and additional support."

In the war that had been raging for the past few days, humanity\'s forces had lost over ten thousand troops—a significant loss, even for a formidable empire like the Holy Empire of Elysium.

After all, the troops sent to the battlefield were the best of the best, shaped by an incredible investment of resources.

With a smile still on his lips, Jim nodded in understanding and replied respectfully, "Yes, Your Majesty. Leave it to me."

...

The next morning...

"Daddy, I want to play with you right now!"

"Daddy, do you have a new puzzle? If so, let\'s play together!"

"Daddy, are you thirsty? I brought you some water."

"Uncle Leon, I brought some biscuits Lyra just made. Would you like some? If so, please open your mouth."

In the room, Leon, sitting on the sofa to relax, was surrounded by Charlotte, Iris, Fiona, and Stella, all vying for his attention.

On his right, Fiona clung to his neck like a koala bear, while on his left, Iris held his arm tightly as if she never wanted to let go.

In front of him, Charlotte and Stella each offered him a glass of water and food, pushing them toward him with eager persistence.

Witnessing this scene, Leon could only let out a weary sigh.

"What\'s going on with them?" he wondered inwardly in confusion.

Moments ago, he had just finished breakfast and completed his morning exercise, as was his daily routine.

Afterwards, he took a shower and planned to relax while attempting to contact Miranda, who had been out of touch for the past few days.

However, these four little girls suddenly barged in with panicked faces and immediately clung to him, as they were doing now.

Snapping out of his reverie, Leon looked at Fiona, Iris, Stella, and Charlotte and asked gently, "Little girls, could you stop for a moment and explain what\'s really going on?"

Hearing his question, Charlotte, Iris, Fiona, and Stella exchanged glances for a few moments before finally turning their attention back to Leon.

"Nothing happened, Daddy. We just want to serve you and play with you," Charlotte said with a smile.

"Um! Um! Sister Charlotte is right, Daddy. We just want to serve you and play with you," Fiona added, nodding her head eagerly.

"Yes, Uncle Leon. Charlotte is right," Stella agreed with a nod.

"Yep! We want to play and spend time with you," Iris chimed, hugging Leon\'s arm tightly and rubbing her cheek against it.

Leon rolled his eyes with a skeptical look, as if to say, "Do you really think I\'ll be fooled so easily?"

Shaking his head, Leon looked at them with a gentle gaze and said, "If something is on your mind, just tell me. I\'m here to listen."

As a father to his three little daughters and an uncle to Stella, he knew their characters and quirks very well.

So, when the four of them acted unusually, he immediately sensed they were hiding something.

Unfortunately, when he asked them about it, they remained silent, causing Leon\'s smile to falter and the corners of his mouth to twitch slightly.

\'It seems these little girls are hiding something significant from me,\' Leon mused to himself.

Noting their stubbornness, Leon thought deeply for a moment before a playful smile spread across his lips as an idea struck him.

Turning his head toward Fiona, Leon\'s expression suddenly became sorrowful as he let out a small sigh.

"Fiona, Daddy didn\'t expect you to hide something from me. It really makes me sad," Leon said, pretending to cry, causing Fiona\'s chubby face to freeze in shock.

"Daddy, I—" Fiona began to explain, but Leon shook his head and turned to Iris, Charlotte, and Stella.

"You three are the same. I thought you loved me, but I didn\'t expect you to keep secrets from me. It truly hurts," Leon said, bowing his head as tears streamed down his face.

Seeing this, Iris, Charlotte, and Stella were taken aback, exchanging worried glances.

It was the first time they had ever seen Leon cry, and it deeply unsettled them!

"Daddy, please listen! I didn\'t mean to make you sad!"

"Yes, Daddy! We didn\'t mean to make you sad, and... Wuuu~"

"Uncle Leon, I\'m so sorry! Please don\'t cry; I\'ll start crying too if you do!"

"Wuu~ Daddy, Fiona is really sorry! I didn\'t want to disappoint you or be a bad girl! Wuuuu~"

With panicked, frightened, and tearful expressions, Charlotte, Iris, Fiona, and Stella hugged Leon tightly, pleading with all their might.

Hearing their panicked voices, Leon knew he had succeeded, though he felt quite embarrassed.

\'Ugh, I truly regret causing them to cry like this,\' Leon thought to himself, his expression filled with regret.

Honestly, he didn\'t want to resort to such an embarrassing method, but he couldn\'t think of any other way to get them to be honest with him.

With a tearful and sorrowful expression, Leon slowly lifted his gaze to look at them, letting out a small sigh.

"Alright, I forgive you," Leon said, pretending to wipe away his fake tears. Then, in a more serious tone, he continued, "But you must tell me why your behavior has been so strange."

Seeing that Leon was no longer crying, Charlotte, Iris, Fiona, and Stella exchanged relieved glances, their smiles returning.

Turning to Leon, Charlotte slightly pursed her lips and said, "Daddy, the truth is, we have nothing to hide. What we said about wanting to spend more time with you is completely sincere."

Pausing for a moment, Charlotte lowered her head with a sad expression and added quietly, "There\'s another reason—we don\'t want you to leave us."

Upon hearing this, Leon was taken aback. Although he had considered leaving to participate in the war, he had never mentioned it directly.

So how could they possibly know?

With a puzzled expression, Leon scratched his head slightly and asked, "Leaving you all? Who said that?"

In response, Charlotte, Iris, and Stella all turned their gazes to Fiona and pointed at her.

"Fiona," they said in unison, causing Leon to glance at her on his right, where she looked up at him with innocent eyes.

"Is what they\'re saying true, Fiona?" Leon asked gently.

"Yes, Daddy, it\'s true," Fiona admitted with a nod.

Leon frowned slightly and asked with a hint of doubt, "Why do you think I\'m going to leave you all? I don\'t recall saying anything like that."

"You didn\'t say it directly, but I overheard your conversation with Lyra yesterday," Fiona replied, lowering her head with a sad expression.

Leon was momentarily stunned and asked, "What do you mean?"

Hugging Leon tightly, Fiona then explained, "Yesterday, I heard you talking to Lyra about the outer palace, and..."

As Leon listened to Fiona\'s explanation, he finally understood and chuckled slightly.

"So, because you overheard my conversation with Lyra yesterday, you think I\'m going to leave you and your sisters?" Leon inquired gently, his lips curving into a faint smile.

"Yes, Daddy," Fiona replied, still hugging him. She then asked in a sad tone, "Are you really going to leave us?"

Charlotte, Iris, and Stella looked at Leon anxiously, their faces filled with worry.

Despite their efforts to prevent it, they knew that if their father decided to leave, they couldn\'t stop him.

Leon, noticing their anxious looks, felt entirely helpless.

"Don\'t worry, I\'m not going anywhere," Leon reassured them, gently stroking each of their heads.

Charlotte, Iris, and Stella\'s eyes brightened at his words, and they asked in unison, "Really?"

"Of course," Leon replied with a warm smile.

"Yay!" Charlotte, Iris, and Stella cheered, their faces lighting up with joy as they looked at each other.

Fiona, still hugging him, was also taken aback by his statement.

"So, does that mean I heard wrong, Daddy?" Fiona asked, slowly releasing her hug and looking at him curiously.

"Yes, you misunderstood," Leon said, pinching her chubby cheeks. "I\'m just helping Lyra with a problem today. There\'s nothing to worry about."

Fiona smiled with relief, hugging Leon tightly again and saying, "Hehehe~ If that\'s the case, then I don\'t have to worry anymore."

Leon chuckled and gently patted her back, then glanced at Charlotte, Iris, and Stella, who had regained their smiles.

*Knock!*

"Your Majesty Leon, are you ready?"
