Chapter 40: Help! I’m Going to Be Raped by This Woman!
“Liliana… You!”
Leon’s mouth formed a large “O,” and he promptly straightened up from his leaning position, his heart pounding as if he had just completed a 100-kilometer marathon.
In his line of sight, Liliana stood at the doorway, clad in a black sheer nightgown, exuding an aura of allure and sensuality.
The black sheer nightgown unveiled Liliana’s white, curvaceous thighs and accentuated her flawless, curve-perfect body, particularly on her huge, proud breasts, which appeared slightly constrained within.
Even in the faint light, Leon could discern the outline and silhouette of the purple underwear she wore beneath the black sheer nightgown!
“Glup~” Leon swallowed hard, feeling a surge of adrenaline as he sensed his younger brother stirring beneath his tight pants.
On the other hand, under the intensity of Leon’s fiery gaze, Liliana’s cheeks flushed crimson, overcome with embarrassment.
Yet she swiftly composed herself, adopting her usual icy demeanor as she met Leon’s gaze head-on.
“Can you avert your gaze?” Liliana’s tone was icy as she entered Leon’s room, closing the door behind her with deliberate slowness.
Leon snapped out of his reverie upon hearing her words, feeling a twinge of embarrassment creeping over him.
“Cough! It’s your own fault for wearing such attention-grabbing attire that I momentarily lost focus,” Leon remarked, feigning a cough to mask his embarrassment while subtly shifting the blame onto Liliana.
In any case, the movement of one’s eyes was involuntary and beyond conscious control, so it wasn’t entirely his fault, was it?
“Humph! Figures a famous sword hero would resort to such excuses to evade accountability for his own missteps,” Liliana remarked icily, advancing toward him with measured steps.
With each stride, her huge, voluptuous breasts swayed subtly, lending an alluring quality to her movements.
As an observer, Leon, seated on the bed, couldn’t help but notice the captivating sway of Liliana’s breasts, causing his throat to go dry.
For the first time, he grasped the significance of the ancient Greek adage, “The shaking of two great mountains is both a natural disaster and a blessing,” a lesson that resonated deeply with him at that moment.
‘This sway is dangerously deadly, isn’t it?’ Leon muttered to himself, his perspective on the world suddenly expanding.
Despite Liliana’s usual allure in her everyday loose black dress, the sheer black nightgown revealed a previously untapped level of allure, making her charms all the more evident.
As Leon contemplated, Liliana had already settled herself on the edge of his bed, her cold gaze piercing through him.
“Have you seen enough?” Her words were a chilling wake-up call, jolting him out of his reverie like a splash of cold water.
“Ehem! Ehem! Seen what?” Leon coughed, feigning confusion and innocence, as if he hadn’t caught Liliana’s implication.
With his acting prowess rivaling that of Hollywood actresses from his former world, Leon’s ability to deceive made it nearly impossible for Liliana, the Demon Emperor, to discern his shortcomings!
Upon witnessing his shameless demeanor, Liliana felt a surge of anger—her impulse to punch him—but restrained herself immediately with a deep breath she took.
Maintaining her irritated gaze on Leon, she spoke curtly, “Enough dawdling. Let’s get straight into the matter I want to discuss.”
At Liliana’s words, Leon promptly dispelled all his lewd thoughts and corrected his sitting position.
“Could you just tell me what you want to say? I’m really sleepy now,” Leon complained, glancing at the clock, which already showed 10:50 p.m., much later than his usual bedtime.
With a busy day ahead, including spending time with his two little daughters and returning to the library in search of books on poison, Leon had his schedule packed.
Certainly, the task of locating books on poisons in the library loomed ahead as a tedious chore awaiting him.
Due to yesterday’s chance encounter with Charlotte and his subsequent focus on winning her affections, he found himself somewhat delayed in his original task.
In any case, his daughters were more important than any books, weren’t they?
Liliana glanced at the clock, nodding in agreement.
“You’re correct; it is indeed very late,” Liliana affirmed with significance.
Of course, there was no denying that Liliana’s interpretation of ‘late’ differed from what Leon had initially meant.
“Leon Kruger, what I wish to discuss involves obtaining detailed information about the spear and arrow hero from you. However, don’t fret; if you’re unwilling to share, I won’t press you,” Liliana stated, pausing briefly before broaching the topic she had in mind.
Leon was taken aback by Liliana’s request, puzzled as to why she was suddenly inquiring about the two heroes.
Was there an issue involving them that concerned her?
He didn’t respond immediately, instead casting a curious gaze at Liliana.
“Is there a reason for you to suddenly inquire about this?” Leon folded his arms and scrutinized Liliana attentively.
His hesitation to outright refuse stemmed from his curiosity about whether there was something significant about to unfold.
If there was indeed a looming threat that could endanger him and his three daughters, Leon would undoubtedly divulge everything to Liliana.
After all, he was currently in a phase of recuperation and remained vigilant against any factors that could potentially leave him vulnerable to exposure by the Holy Empire of Elysium.
Liliana gave a slight nod, her indifferent expression shifting to one of seriousness.
“I had initially hesitated to disclose this information, but considering it’s futile to keep secrets from you, I’ve chosen to proceed,” Liliana spoke cautiously, then began to elucidate everything to Leon.
As she provided a concise yet detailed explanation, including various crucial details, Leon’s initially calm expression turned solemn.
‘Mobilizing over 500,000 troops? Sure enough, there must be a conspiracy at play,’ Leon murmured coldly to himself, lowering his head in contemplation.
He had suspected that something was amiss but had not anticipated a large-scale attack of this magnitude.
After a moment, Liliana concluded her narrative and waited in silence for Leon, who was lost in contemplation.
Uncertain of how Leon would react to her revelation about the impending war, she braced herself for his response.
Would he aid her by disclosing the details of the other two heroes, or would he opt to keep it a secret and withhold the information?
Indeed, he was a hero, and revealing information about the other two heroes could be perceived as a betrayal of mankind, couldn’t it?
Just as Liliana anticipated Leon’s decision, his unexpected response echoed in her ears.
“Very well, I consent to your request for information about them,” Leon declared, lifting his head to meet Liliana’s gaze with a determined expression and nodding firmly.
Liliana was taken aback by his agreement, regarding Leon with a somewhat dazed expression.
“Are you certain? Wouldn’t this be akin to betraying humanity?” Liliana swiftly composed herself and asked, her tone tinged with uncertainty.
Leon chuckled at her words, casting Liliana a funny glance.
“Of course, I understand. Yet, if the Demon army were to face such a formidable force and suffer defeat, wouldn’t it also be detrimental for me to stand idly by?” Leon replied with a casual smile, acknowledging Liliana’s concern.
Certainly, if the Demon race were to suffer a defeat, it would undoubtedly deal a significant blow to them and to Leon himself, now residing within this Demon castle.
Furthermore, he wasn’t naive enough to expect something for nothing, so this could be considered sufficient payment for his assistance, couldn’t it?
Liliana was left speechless by his response; it was indeed surprising to hear such sentiment from a hero.
Yet she couldn’t deny that his answer brought her immense joy, and a radiant smile graced her lips.
‘This guy isn’t half bad,’ Liliana thought to herself, casting a gentler gaze upon Leon.
For some inexplicable reason, her cheeks felt hot and her heart raced, a sensation that had nothing to do with the demon’s mark but rather arose spontaneously.
Afterward, Leon glanced at the clock, which now read 10:59 p.m., and lazily stretched his body.
“Yawn~ Well, let’s continue this tomorrow. I need some sleep,” Leon muttered, his words punctuated by a lazy yawn.
However, after a while, there was no response from Liliana, leaving Leon perplexed.
“Hm? Liliana? Did you hear me?” Leon inquired, waving a hand in her direction.
Unfortunately, Liliana, seated on the edge of the bed, remained silent and unresponsive.
Baffled by her lack of reaction, Leon scratched his head in confusion and cautiously inched closer to her.
“Liliana? Are you oka—” Before Leon could finish his sentence, Liliana, who had been as motionless as a statue, abruptly lifted her head toward him.
The cold and indifferent expression she had worn moments before shifted to one that struck Leon as peculiar, filling him with a sense of foreboding.
“Not good! Something’s wrong with this woman!” Leon exclaimed in fear, instinctively preparing to retreat.
Yet, Liliana didn’t allow Leon to escape; instead, she lunged at him, wrapping her arms around his neck in a tight embrace.
Then, Liliana pressed her lips against Leon’s, causing him to feel as though a meteor had collided with his head.
‘Help! I’m going to be raped by this woman!’
