When the Fairy Queen suddenly recognized his identity, Leon wasn't surprised in the slightest. He remained calm and composed, just as usual.
Given her status as the Elf Queen, it would've been strange if she hadn't recognized him.
After all, Leon had been in Elf territory for a week, and Zelda had almost certainly informed her of his arrival.
As for why she didn't recognize him immediately, that was only natural. She had just woken from a coma—her mind was likely still foggy and unable to process things clearly.
Snapping out of his thoughts, Leon offered a gentle smile and gave a slight shake of his head.
"There's no need to be so formal, Your Majesty," he said calmly. "And you don't have to call me 'The Fated One.' Just use my name."
His words caught Aurora off guard, but she quickly returned his smile, her expression warm and relaxed.
"It seems Zelda was right—you really are a humble and approachable man, Fated One… I mean, Leon." She chuckled softly.
