"Well, I'm ready, Liliana. Shall we begin?"
Feeling the sudden embrace enveloping her from behind, Liliana gasped in shock, her body instantly tensing.
Yet, upon hearing Leon's soft voice behind her, Liliana breathed a sigh of relief, feeling her entire body gradually relax.
"You really surprised me, Leon," Liliana said, her tone dissatisfied as she tilted her head slightly to glance at him, wearing a pretend angry expression.
Embracing her from behind, Leon smiled and tilted his head to the side, playfully observing Liliana's feigned anger.
"Surprised? How could a powerful Demon Emperor like you be surprised?" Leon teased, his tone light as he chuckled.
A figure as powerful and esteemed as Liliana, bearing the title of Demon Emperor, should possess exceedingly sharp senses.
Let alone his sudden embrace, even if an attack came from a great distance, Liliana's sharp senses would detect and evade it effortlessly if she were alert.
