Milim stared at his outstretched hand, her expression unreadable. Slowly, she reached out and took it, her fingers trembling slightly. As Leon helped her to her feet, she nodded. "Very well. I will do as you say," she said softly, a small smile playing on her lips.
Leon gave a brief nod, his face calm, though his mind was racing. Hopefully, by that time, I'll have found that mythical-grade cleansing potion to remove the curse Angelica unknowingly put on me, he thought grimly, the memory of that incident flashing through his mind.
"By the way, these are my companions," Leon said, gesturing to the two nearby. "Roman and Roselia." He smiled faintly as he pointed at Roselia. "And Roselia here is my girlfriend. I also have another—her name's Angelica. She's an angel who resides on a higher floor, Floor 234 to be exact."
Milim turned her curious gaze toward Leon.
