Chapter 158: Liliana, May I Ask You For a Favor?

Fifteen minutes later...

"Ahem! Liliana, could you let me go? My body's getting a bit stiff," Leon said helplessly, looking at Liliana, who was clinging to him tightly like an octopus.

For fifteen minutes, Liliana had held him tightly in her embrace. While Leon was delighted and happy to be wrapped in her arms, the prolonged hug had left his entire body somewhat stiff.

Moreover, Liliana's huge breasts pressing against his chest made him somewhat breathless, though he had to admit they were very soft.

Upon hearing Leon's words, Liliana remained silent and continued to hug him tightly, as if she hadn't yet fully vented all her emotions.

Seeing this, Leon could only sigh and continue to hold her until she was satisfied.

After a while, Liliana finally loosened her embrace, allowing Leon's body to relax a little.

With a gentle look in his eyes, Leon stroked her smooth back and long, white hair, speaking softly, "Liliana, I apologize for making you worry. I feel very guilty about it."

Although this incident wasn't entirely his fault due to Miranda's sudden summoning, which caused the chaos of his holy power, he still felt a deep sense of guilt towards Liliana.

Thinking of this, Leon couldn't help but feel a bit annoyed at Miranda for summoning him just as he was undergoing transcendence.

However, he couldn't blame Miranda either, leaving him with only a small sigh.

Just as he was expecting a romantic moment with Liliana after his apology, a sharp pain suddenly shot through his waist.

"Ouch!" Leon cried out, wincing as the pain in his waist snapped him out of his reverie.

Turning his gaze downward, he saw a white hand pinching his waist hard.

"Hehehe~ Leon, oh, Leon. After causing me such worry, do you truly believe a simple apology is enough?"

Upon hearing that cold, gripping voice, Leon's body shivered to the core.

Instinctively, he lifted his gaze and saw that Liliana, who had previously worn an expression full of sadness as she hugged him, now had a cold and indifferent look, leaving Leon dumbfounded.

"L-Liliana, let me explain," Leon nervously swallowed and attempted to dodge, but suddenly felt an invisible force stiffening his body, rendering him immobile.

"Explain? Hehehe~ You can explain later," Liliana whispered indifferently, tightening her grip on his waist, causing him to grimace in pain.

"Hiss!" Leon took a deep breath, trying to endure the intense pain. He hadn't anticipated Liliana pinching him so hard!

Realizing that dodging would be futile, Leon could only let out a small sigh and offer her a helpless smile.

"Alright, I'll accept my punishment, but please don't overdo it, okay?" Leon surrendered, his tone devoid of resistance.

If punishment was the price for Liliana's forgiveness, then he would reluctantly pay it.

Liliana didn't respond; she simply smiled faintly before snapping her fingers.

*Snap!*

Suddenly, a crimson barrier enveloped them, obstructing their view from the outside world and enclosing them within.

Without hesitation, Liliana pounced on Leon like a starving lioness, and the two swiftly unleashed their overwhelming emotions.

***

An hour later...

*Whoosh!*

As the crimson barrier dissipated, it revealed two figures: Leon and Liliana, both now dressed in different attire.

Liliana, once adorned in a charming red gown, now graced a beautiful black dress with delicate lace, while Leon, usually seen in white robes, sported a black-night-colored robe, a departure from his usual attire.

Hand in hand, they exchanged smiles, their faces glowing with warmth after releasing their pent-up emotions moments earlier.

"Are you satisfied?" Leon inquired, a gentle smile adorning his lips as he stroked Liliana's silky white hair.

Liliana nodded slightly, her face buried in Leon's broad chest, savoring his touch.

"I'm satisfied," Liliana replied softly, her tone free of the previous coldness or indifference, causing Leon to chuckle.

The two savored their moment together before Liliana reluctantly released her embrace on Leon.

"By the way, it's unusual to see you in a black robe like this," Liliana remarked curiously, admiration evident in her red eyes.

Upon hearing this, Leon smiled slightly and replied inquisitively, "Do I look handsome and fit in a black robe like this?"

Ever since obtaining the Great Sword of Chaos and acquiring the Power of Chaos within his body, he had been eager to try wearing the black robe, though uncertain if it suited him, given his usual attire of white robes.

Liliana didn't immediately answer his question. Instead, she gave him a slight smile as she observed him carefully once again, from head to toe.

After a moment, she averted her gaze, her eyes brimming with the obsession she made no effort to conceal as she looked up at Leon's handsome face.

Reaching out to stroke Leon's cheek, Liliana replied, licking her upper lip, "You're incredibly handsome, Leon. In fact, your handsomeness has me contemplating locking you in your room for the rest of your life."

Listening to this, Leon's smile instantly faltered, and goosebumps crept up his back.

"Ahem! That's quite an eerie thing to say, Liliana," Leon remarked with a slight cough.

He hadn't anticipated Liliana to utter such unsettling words, which brought to mind the yandere female characters from novels in his previous life, causing his face to pale instantly.

"Pffft! Just teasing you, Leon," Liliana chuckled, observing his pale face with amusement.

The corners of Leon's mouth twitched slightly as he stared helplessly at Liliana, who was laughing in front of him.

"You really scared me, Liliana," Leon sighed, a small smile gracing his lips.

Liliana only chuckled at Leon's relieved expression. Despite claiming it was just a joke, deep down, she indeed harbored such thoughts.

She couldn't understand why such emotions arose within her, but she attributed them to the earlier incident, stirring feelings of desperation at the thought of losing Leon.

Certainly, she had no intention of revealing these feelings to him. Instead, she chose to keep this sense of obsession tucked away in her heart.

With a slight shake of her head, Liliana locked eyes with Leon and changed the subject: "So, can you explain to me why your holy power went out of control like before?"

In response to Liliana's question, Leon fell silent for a moment, contemplating whether or not to divulge his encounter with Miranda.

It wasn't that he didn't trust Liliana, but the matter was quite complicated and difficult to explain.

Whether it was the 7,000-year-old truth, the issue of the Evil God, or the 7,000-year plan to find 'the Fated One,' which turned out to be himself, everything would indeed be difficult to explain in a short period of time.

After a moment of thought, Leon finally decided to tell Liliana instead of hiding it. Aside from the fact that she was his partner, he also needed her help—whether it was to end the 7,000-year war between humankind and the demon race or to face the evil god in the future.

Certainly, he couldn't explain it now; there was a mission he needed to accomplish immediately—to announce his arrival to the entirety of the hidden races.

Snapping out of his reverie, Leon gently rubbed Liliana's face and said, "The reason I lost control of my holy power is rather complicated, but I'll explain it to you later."

Liliana blinked at him for a few moments before giving a small nod. Sёarᴄh the ηovёlFire .net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

"Alright, you can tell me whenever you're ready," Liliana replied gently, saying nothing more. Her understanding made Leon love her even more.

Taking a deep breath, Leon closed his eyes briefly before looking at Liliana with a serious expression.

"Liliana, may I ask you for a favor?"
