LUCIUS respected Gypsy Woolsey a lot, so he decided to be honest with her.
It was true that he admired her because she could withstand his awful power.
However, he wouldn't say that what he felt for her was already considered as romantic love. He told Van, his most trusted knight, that he wanted to marry out of love. It was true. But why did he propose to Gypsy Woolsey right away?
[It's simple, really: I'm confident that I can love an amazing woman like her.]
"You have the power to absorb my Mana without getting affected by it negatively," Lucius said. He might appear like he wasn't serious because he was smiling. But he was being sincere. "Lady Woolsey, you're the only woman who can stay with me without dying."
Gypsy Woolsey sipped her tea in a hurry, as if she finally realized that he was serious about his marriage proposal.
Yvo is back to claim what's his... at least, what he thinks is his. Hehe.
