Knight with Wand

"shoe?"

"Uh-huh~ No."

"toothbrush?"

"Guess again."

"Incense? Is it perfume?"

"Still not right~"

"comb?"

"Come on, we're very close." Leon said amusedly.

She never guessed correctly, and Olivia, whose eyes were covered, pursed her lips helplessly: "I surrender, you are really stumping me, what is it?"

Leon, who has had enough trouble, no longer embarrasses the girl.

"Okay, reveal the answer, Dangdangdang~"

He removed his palm and handed the hair accessory he was holding behind him to the girl.

"!?"

Olivia's eyes slowly opened wide.

The unprepared girl trembled in shock, her heart suddenly beating like a drum.

Hair. Hair hair band?

Headband? ! !

Leon, who had no self-awareness, said with a smile: "A little bit of care, it didn't cost much. I don't know what color you like, but the blue one will definitely suit your blond hair."

But the girl's head was so buzzing at the moment that she could hardly hear the other party's voice.

Her cheeks were uncontrollably feverish, and her pupils seemed to be trembling in her panicked eyes.

"Leon, you, you, no, I, you want to give it to me, you want to give me a hair tie?" Olivia blushed and waved her hands, stammering, as if she was possessed by Hawke and her words were incoherent. .

Leon looked at the fierce reaction of the girl in front of him and became confused.

He lowered his head and looked at the blue headband with amber stones in his hand. It might be more expensive for lower-class civilians, but for a wealthy family like Olivia's family, it wouldn't be particularly expensive.

Or maybe you don’t like this style?

Leon scratched his head and said, "Do you think this color is inappropriate?

How about I change it for you? I also bought a lot for Elena and Xiao Lina, and there were some white and light blue ones in the bag. "

He said looking at the luggage.

"What?" Olivia was stunned.

".Bought for everyone?"

His nervous mood suddenly calmed down as if a basin of cold water had been poured on his head.

The smart girl listened to the other person's foreign accent in Feru's words, and then remembered...

yes.

She almost forgot that Leon was not from Orlander.

Realizing that the person in front of her didn't seem to know anything about the traditional customs of the north, Olivia felt inexplicably worried.

He seemed to be relieved, but there was also a trace of depression in his chest.

However, the next moment the girl was secretly annoyed by her random thoughts just now, and her face became even redder.

Leon turned his head, preparing to change a hair accessory from his bag for the girl to choose, but his hands suddenly felt empty.

Olivia quickly reached out and took out the beautiful blue hair tie.

"No, I like the color, and..."

The girl didn't dare to look directly at the boy in front of her. She turned her head and murmured a test in a low voice: "Serian, can you give away hair ties to women?"

Leon raised his eyebrows.

He thought, what else could be more casual than giving a hair accessory?

It's not like giving a ring.

Um?

His heart suddenly thumped, and Leon's eyes widened.

He heard the girl ask this, but his active mind could not figure out the subtext behind these words.

"Hairband, in the Kingdom of Serian, there is really no particularity in giving it to a friend." Leon said nonchalantly, but did not clarify his vague premonition.

Although his move was unintentional, if he explained it clearly, Leon felt that his heart might be broken into eight petals if the girl in front of him got a polite message.

However, after Olivia confirmed that the other party was really just giving an ordinary gift, her heart darkened instinctively.

Folding the hair tie carefully with both hands, she said to Leon muffledly: "Thank you for the gift, I will accept it."

"Well, as long as you like it." Leon nodded bitterly.

For a moment, the atmosphere in the room seemed a little silent.

"That's right." Leon had an idea and took the initiative to break the sudden embarrassment.

"Actually, I want to give you a hair tie because I always see you tying your ponytail. It's very troublesome when wearing a helmet. I know how to make a hairstyle that is convenient for wearing a helmet. Do you want me to tie it for you?" He smiled. suggested.

This is also true. Leon has been holding back his desire to occasionally change the girl's hairstyle to a certain familiar hairstyle for a long time.

Hearing this, Olivia's eyes overflowed with an unexpected look.

She looked at Leon and opened her lips silently.

Not knowing how to answer, my originally calm heart was once again stirred up by the sudden and unexpected request.

The girl raised her hand and touched the ponytail on the back of her head. While her face felt hot, she also felt resentful in her heart.

Also use this hair tie

Tie her hair with your own hands?

Did he really not know the meaning of giving a hair tie, or was he deliberately teasing himself?

But looking at Leon's unique black pupils with no color in them, he was full of expectation.

Olivia turned away her eyes, her heartbeat quickened, and she nodded her head inexplicably: "Ahem~ Then~ let's try it."

Seeing the girl nodding, Leon's brows were filled with joy.

Even before he started, he could already imagine how suitable Olivia's braided ladylike bun was.

Quickly going to the bag and taking out the wooden comb he carried, Leon moved the chair.

Even now, there is no way to back down. The girl thought to herself.

She walked over and sat down stiffly, holding her knees.

Leon came behind the girl and reached out to untie her single ponytail. However, his originally calm mood, when his fingers touched the delicate and beautiful hair, made him involuntarily distracted by the soft and delicate touch.

Shaking his head to calm down, Leon eliminated distracting thoughts and continued to untie the rough cloth that tied the girl's hair.

The hair was untied.

Under the candlelight, the bright golden hair naturally fell on Olivia's petite shoulders.

Raising his hand, Leon gently held the girl's hair like holding a treasure, and carefully combed the strands of hair that passed through his palm with a comb.

He recalled the way he used to mess with his wild girl's sister's head in his previous life, and concentrated on carefully combing and braiding it.

Feeling the hair being carefully combed by the other party, Leon's hands kept stroking and fiddling with her head.

Although she was extremely shy, Olivia's body gradually relaxed because of this indescribable sense of security.

In the quiet room, only the slight sound of combing hair could be heard. The subtle awkwardness quietly dissipated in the contact between the two.

Soon, Leon finally used the carefully woven braid to wrap around the girl's round bun behind her head.

He stretched his hand in front of the girl and gestured: "Give me the hairband, and then I'll help you wrap it in and fix it, and it's done."

On the chair, the girl immersed in the inexplicable warmth suddenly became sober.

Lowering her head, Olivia looked at the hairband in her hand

Biting her lower lip, the girl simply closed her eyes, as if she had mustered up the courage to hand the hairband to Leon, and then silently clenched the cloth on her trouser legs.

She felt her heartbeat so fast that it seemed to jump out of her chest.

Leon continued to tie her hair silently.

Stuff one end of the blue hairband under the girl's bun braid, then pulled it out and tied a beautiful bow, so that the round amber stone decoration was centered.

He did all this, looking at his not-so-rusty craftsmanship, and even secretly pinched the girl's cute bun.

Having taken a small advantage, Leon admired his masterpiece with satisfaction, patted Olivia's shoulder: "It's done, it's perfect, it really suits you, I'll show you in the mirror."

He took out the bronze mirror he carried with him and handed it to the girl.

Restraining her complicated thoughts, Olivia stole a glance at herself in the mirror.

Tilting her head slightly, she glanced at the bun behind her head with her peripheral vision.

Especially seeing the headband that had firmly "bound" her braids

It was really tied.

As if she had secretly done something shameful, the girl looked away evasively, her heart pounding, and she didn't dare to look at the headband in the mirror any more.

"Are you not satisfied? How about changing it back?" Leon looked at the girl's reaction, and couldn't help but feel uneasy, raising his hand to indicate whether to untie the hairstyle again.

Olivia's eyes widened and she waved her hands hurriedly: "What? No, this is fine."

As she said that, she stood up and pretended to be nonchalant as she touched her hair that was tied up behind her head. This hairstyle really made her feel a lot lighter.

Touching the headband behind her neck, Olivia couldn't help but look at the other party's luggage bag that still contained a lot of hair accessories.

Leon also looked along the girl's line of sight, thought for a while, and asked hesitantly: "From what you said just now, isn't it inappropriate to give a woman a headband without authorization in Orland?"

He somewhat understood why the other party reacted that way when he asked the old tailor to buy a headband.

Olivia stared at Leon with complicated eyes, pursed her lips and sighed: "Since you said that there is no tradition in Serian, it should be okay to give one to Sister Elena privately. After all, she is not from Orland like you.

But if you give the headband to Little Lina and the others, it will definitely cause a lot of misunderstandings, and you won't buy one for Aunt Milia too, right?"

Hearing this, Leon scratched his face awkwardly. Well, it is true that he did not miss it.

In addition to picking it for the girl in front of him, he prepared the headbands for others as employee benefits.

But now it seems that in the Northern Kingdom, giving women headbands is obviously of great significance in some aspects.

Good guy, thinking about it, I and the women around me almost had their reputations ruined.

Ms. Elena and the little maids at home are fine, just explain it clearly, but Milia in the kitchen has a husband, and it will be bad if it causes rumors.

But now it is considered to be timely to stop the embarrassing incident that almost happened.

"Thanks for your reminder, otherwise it would be troublesome if people misunderstood me." Leon was thankful.

He then said to Olivia: "But I have already bought it, it's not easy to return it, so I'll just give you all the hairbands, and I'll buy them some shoes when I go back."

Olivia's eyes flickered, and she couldn't help but ask faintly: "Give them all to me? You are afraid that people will misunderstand.

You are not afraid of my misunderstanding."

Hearing the girl's tone, Leon was stunned for a moment and was speechless for a while.

But looking at the other person's eyes, he seemed to feel something from it.

His heart moved slightly, but Leon was really not sure. "I'm sorry, I really don't know the customs of Orland."

Hearing this, Olivia felt the existence of the hair accessories behind her head with a guilty conscience, and her pretty face couldn't help but turn red again.

Compared with the other party who did something stupid unintentionally, she clearly knew this tradition, but accepted such behavior.

The girl sobbed in her heart and regretted her impulsive and bold behavior just now.

She couldn't imagine how her friends would view her once they knew the details of this tradition.

"I don't need that much. Let me give those hair ties to them. It's okay for women to give them to women."

With that said, Olivia, who could no longer bear the shame, felt dizzy, grabbed the sword on the table, put it back on her waist, and headed toward the door.

"It's so late. I'll go back and rest first. See you tomorrow." The girl quickly ran to the door.

As soon as she held the doorknob with her left hand and was about to open the door and escape, her right wrist was suddenly grabbed by Leon.

"Can I ask?"

Leon's voice suddenly asked behind the girl: "Before I leave, can you tell me what giving hair ties to women means in Oland?"

Everything around him became quiet.

Holding the girl's wrist tightly, Leon could feel the girl's sudden panic and trembling when he expressed the question.

Although as long as the opponent exerts force, he can easily break free from his hand.

"I didn't expect Leon to be so evil-minded."

The girl avoided her eyes and complained with her back turned: "You can obviously guess the general situation, why do you ask me specifically? I look at you, you just want to tease me? Right?"

Hearing the girl's lovely accusation, Leon smiled, then took a deep breath and continued: "Then I will make a wild guess. In Oland, is it true that men can only show their affection to the woman they like and express their love? Only then will the hairband be given to the other party as a token?”

This speculation made Olivia fall into a long period of confusion and silence.

It took a while.

The girl turned her head to the other side, her red little face avoided the eyes of the person behind her, and she muttered in an inaudible voice: "This is not the time to show love."

This is almost an answer in disguise.

Leon is serious.

"That's a proposal? Right?"

The girl didn't speak again. For a long time, her little head with her hair in a bun just nodded silently.

An indescribable shock surged into Leon's heart.

He already understood the significance of this move in Orland, and it was a hundred times more serious than expected.

This is not something that can be easily fooled.

Leon never felt like the stupid, slow-witted character in his previous comic book life.

And he never thought that with the temperament of the girl in front of him, he would accept such a meaningful "engagement thing" just because of a misunderstanding from a friend.

He really felt that the girl in front of him also had a real liking for him.

Leon tried hard to hold back his almost uncontrollable excitement.

With unabashed sincerity, he asked the girl:

"Olivia.

If one day in the future, it will no longer be because of misunderstanding.

I send you my headband again.

At that time, will you give me another chance? "

The boy's shocking words that penetrated directly into the girl's heart made Olivia slowly relax.

She seemed to gradually make up her mind and turned around.

Those bright green eyes slowly returned to their former calmness.

However, there is still a hint of resentment.

"Fool.

I won't give you a second chance.

Didn’t I already accept your hair tie? "

Joy and happiness that I never dared to dream of.

Then it filled Leon's heart.
