Chapter 345

345 345

Leon rested a bit after the battle.

It would be a lie to say that he wasn't exhausted mentally after all the fight but what can he do, such is life.

At that moment he missed Sophia a bit. As for Su Lin, he can't rush forward to grab her, can he?

The next day, Leon got a call to report to the designated Sector as quickly as possible. With the black Demons rampaging inside the military academy, they spotted some unusual activities around the borders.

Minor skirmish had already started at the end of Sectors so the situation was quite tense.

As Leon was the one who was going to solve the matter of manpower, he needed there...or accurately, his ghost should be present there.

So, he was urged to report to Sector 11 quickly.

Meanwhile, Su Lin was again worried about Leon as Leon asked her to do her work in a military academy. Since he was here, he wasn't running anywhere.

Though they would be separated, it's not as if he would be going to a higher plane or dimension forcing them to meet after many years.

Whereas Sophia told Leon that she finished her work and would meet him in Sector 12.

This made Leon more unhappy.

Alas.....

.....

High above the city, Leon and Su Lin sat together on the edge of a towering skyscraper, their legs dangling over the side as they watched the ever-changing colours of the dimensional sky.

It changed from an orangish hue to Prussian blue then purple to deep violet. The stars twinkled, extending various colours to radiate and due the sky.

The air was crisp and cool, filled with the soft hum of the bustling city below.

Su Lin rested her head on Leon's shoulder enjoying the blissful life. She never felt so happy like this.

Her heart was beating wildly in joy.

Maybe she had fallen a lot but it didn't matter as at the moment all she wanted to was to accompany Leon.

Suddenly, a bird-shaped spacecraft appeared in the distance, the loud sound of plasma thrusters echoing, breaking the soft silence.

[Brother, it's time to hurry up.]

She was a bit dazed but her eyes shone with a strange glint if she wanted more but Leon knew he should stop.

Little more than this, the beast inside him might go unhinged and it might also make it hard for Su Lin to part from him.

"Bad boy," Su Lin spoke with a brush and licked her lips.

'I take it back...I need to taste again.'

Seeing this Leon pounced on her again.

As they parted from their fervent kiss, Leon's gaze held Su Lin's, his eyes filled with a mixture of love and regret. "I wish I could stay with you forever," he murmured, his voice tinged with longing.

Raising his hand, he caressed her hair softly.

Su Lin's heart ached at his words, her own emotions mirroring his. "I know," she whispered, her fingers intertwining with his as she leaned in to rest her head against his shoulder. "But it seems you need to go."

Leon nodded, a sigh escaping his lips as he pressed a tender kiss to Su Lin's forehead. "I promise I'll come back quickly if possible."

"If things get worse, I just need to wipe all the trouble."

Hearing this tears welled in Su Lin's eyes, as she felt a bit emotional. She hated herself for being too dramatic.

"Sorry, I'm showing you this ugly side of mine.

"What ugly? You look beautiful. Even your tears shine dazzlingly."Leon chuckled.

With a final embrace, Leon reluctantly pulled away, his gaze lingering on Su Lin's face as he committed every detail to memory.

"Okay, Su Lin, it's time to part."

Leon got up under Su Lin's gaze and jumped down.

SCREECH!

Soon a bestial scream emerged under Leon's foot and a reptilian bird rose into the sky carrying Leon toward the spacecraft.

Su Lin who looked at the longing scene soon heard another scream.

"Su Lin, please take care of yourself.

Then, with a heavy heart, he turned and made his way towards the hovering spacecraft.
