70 The Arrival of Books on Poison from the Outer Palace Library, and Leon's Burning Spirit

The next morning

The dark dawn sky slowly brightened as the morning sun ascended, casting its gentle light.

In the trees, numerous birds chirped their sweet melodies, signaling the arrival of a bright and peaceful day.

Meanwhile, on the bed, Leon, who had been sound asleep, suddenly felt his breathing constrict, as if his body were being weighed down by something heavy.

Struggling against heavy eyelids, Leon forced his eyes open and was immediately surprised to find Fiona, who had somehow appeared and was sleeping on his stomach like a kitten.

Inevitably, a twitch appeared at the corner of Leon's mouth.

"This little girl... can't she just sleep normally?" Leon sighed helplessly.

This incident wasn't a one-time occurrence; it had happened on previous occasions as well.

He still vividly recalled the first time he slept in this room, waking up the next morning to find Fiona sleeping on his stomach just like this.
