68 The Three Promises

"Leon... Could you promise me three things?"

Upon hearing this, Leon, still caressing her beautiful white hair, nodded slightly.

"Of course. Let alone three; even if you asked for ten, as long as it's within my power, I'll promise it to you," Leon replied with a confident smile.

He understood that, despite Liliana's acceptance of him, it was crucial to remember their status as the Demon Emperor and the Sword Hero.

Their destinies as eternal adversaries remained unchanged, and Liliana's request for three promises likely pertained to this very fact.

'An eternal enemy, huh?' murmured Leon with a tinge of regret.

If it were his previous self, he wouldn't have cared about that, but after this incident, how could he continue to think that way?

Liliana, nestled in Leon's arms, offered a slight smile at his pretentious words, harboring no trace of anger.
