Leon shuddered as Athena's tongue brushed against his ear. He tried to pull away, but her grip was too tight, leaving him unable to move.

With this threat, he hoped Athena would rethink her actions. What he didn't expect, however, was that instead of being frightened, she responded with a playful smile.
"Holding a grudge against me and the dragon race? Hahaha! Leon, do you really think such a threat can scare me?" Athena giggled, playfully toying with his cheeks.
