Aria had heard the entire conversation between the so called Queen Leticia and Leon. But judging from how she knew Leon, it was clear that he couldn't just accept to betray his loyalty to her. Besides, he was her personal knight and personal knights vowed to protect their masters to death.
"Why should I pledge my loyalty to you?" Asked Leon, looking at the queen calculatingly. Judging from the sudden drop of temperature, Leon presumed that she specialized in either water or ice sorcery. Even though the sun was bright and warm outside, the room remained chilly still. Another reason why the queen did not meet with the citizens of Eldrida publicly. A normal person could not withstand such coldness. They would eventually catch a cold or a frostbite, the least. Freezing to death would be the worst.
