Chapter 91: Leon’s Awesome Honesty, and the Punishment That Accompanies It
Inside the room, Leon lies comfortably with Liliana in his arms, her beautiful face tired yet filled with happiness after their exhausting activities.
For three hours straight, they engaged in their sexual intimate activities, and after feeling exhausted and reaching their limit, they decided to stop and rest.
As Leon looked at the woman in his arms, still breathing slightly heavily with her face nestled in his embrace, eyes closed but wearing the satisfied smile of a woman fulfilled, he couldn’t help but feel pride and happiness.
Bringing the world’s first female Demon Emperor to such bliss, only he, Leon Kruger, the world’s Handsomest Sword Hero, could achieve it!
This accomplishment filled him with confidence that his name would echo through the ages, remembered by generations to come!
Just the thought of it made Leon inwardly laugh out loud as he gently combed Liliana’s soft, though slightly tangled, long white hair with his fingers.
“Ummm~” Liliana moaned softly as she felt the gentle touch on her head, her tired eyes fluttering open.
“Oops! Did I wake you?” Leon asked softly, a hint of surprise evident in his voice.
Upon hearing this, Liliana shook her head slightly and continued to lazily lie on Leon’s muscular chest.
“It’s okay. I wasn’t really asleep, just resting my eyes,” Liliana replied in a cold yet gentle tone.
After their three-hour-long activity, Liliana felt exhaustion throughout her body.
Yet, intertwined with the fatigue, was a refreshing sensation, leaving her feeling slightly intoxicated and addicted.
Leon sighed in relief and smiled upon hearing her words.
Then, as he continued to comb her hair with his fingers, he asked in a joking tone, “So, how are you feeling now? Are the side effects of the Demon Mark no longer bothering you or making you uncomfortable?”
Liliana’s face instantly stiffened, and a blush spread rapidly to the base of her ears.
Due to the pleasure from their earlier sexual activities, Liliana had completely forgotten about her earlier deceit, leaving her feeling extremely embarrassed now.
Furthermore, she realized that Leon was already aware of her lies and actions, yet he still teased her like this.
How could she not feel even more embarrassed and annoyed?
“Humph! Are you mocking me?” Liliana snorted coldly and bit Leon’s shoulder in anger.
Feeling Liliana’s sudden bite, Leon widened his eyes and winced in pain.
“Hiss! What are you doing!? Are you a dog?” Leon quickly moved away, releasing his embrace on Liliana, and looked at her with apprehension.
At Leon’s words, Liliana widened her eyes and looked at him in disbelief.
“What did you say? A dog?” Liliana asked, a cold smile spreading across her face.
Her red eyes bore into Leon, as if she could devour him whole.
Observing the shift in Liliana’s expression, Leon displayed no fear; instead, his arrogance was evident on his face.
Then, a sudden, intriguing idea popped into Leon’s head, and he gave Liliana a mischievous look.
“Yes, you’re right! Dogs like to bite, and don’t you like to bite too?” Leon smirked knowingly, raising and lowering his eyebrows suggestively.
Liliana frowned, puzzled by his words, but as the realization dawned on her, her cold demeanor transformed, becoming flushed with embarrassment.
“Bastard!” Liliana cursed shyly, flinging herself at Leon.
Then, without hesitation, she mercilessly tickled Leon’s entire body.
“Uwahahahaha! Liliana! Let me go! I’m sorry!” Leon laughed out loud as he squirmed under Liliana’s relentless tickling, desperate to break free.
However, with her surprisingly strong grip, escape seemed impossible.
“Humph! This is your punishment for mocking me!” Liliana snorted coldly, refusing to relent in her ticklish assault on Leon.
How dare this smelly man tease her like that? Humph!
After a while, feeling satisfied, Liliana finally ceased her punishment.
Leon, utterly helpless, lay on the bed with a flushed face and irregular breathing.
“Do you still dare to mock and ridicule me?” Liliana asked in a cocky tone, her smile filled with pride.
“No, I… I give up!” Leon raised one hand, his breath coming in short gasps.
This woman was truly merciless!
She showed no signs of stopping her relentless tickling, leaving him completely defenseless!
Was this still the cold, indifferent Demon Emperor he knew?
Completely helpless, Leon could only surrender.
Observing Leon’s capitulation, Liliana smiled faintly, lazily adjusting her body in Leon’s embrace.
“Well, if you dare to make fun of me and mock me again, then the punishment won’t be just this,” Liliana warned, gently pinching Leon’s waist.
“Cough! Of course, I won’t do it again, okay?” With a slight cough and a professional smile, Leon hugged Liliana affectionately.
How could he dare to make this woman angry again?
“Good then,” Liliana acknowledged, resting her face against Leon’s broad, muscular chest and narrowing her eyes like a lazy cat.
For some reason, she found solace and security in this position, feeling strangely obsessed.
As the Demon Emperor, she had never before encountered such comfort and security, making his embrace the first place where she could experience it.
Observing her charming and lazy smile as she lay on his chest, Leon couldn’t help but think of Fiona, who always found joy in sleeping on his belly.
“Is this what they mean by ‘the apple doesn’t fall far from the tree’?” Leon pondered, chuckling to himself.
Comparing the two’s lazy expressions, they seemed quite similar, despite Fiona having inherited his face.
As Leon drifted into his thoughts, his gaze subconsciously shifted toward the reading desk, where he had spent the past few days immersed in reading poison books.
Inevitably, he gasped slightly in surprise, snapping back from his reverie as he recalled his conversation with Lyra about the ingredients for the antidote to counteract the devouring poison within his body.
Although he had meticulously written down all the necessary ingredients, the main catalyst for the devouring poison antidote—the Demon Emperor’s blood essence—was conspicuously absent from the list of ingredients Lyra would prepare.
“Demon Emperor blood essence…” Leon muttered inwardly, his gaze involuntarily returning to Liliana in his arms.
He had previously intended to ask Liliana for help with this matter, and wasn’t this the right moment for it?
As if sensing Leon’s gaze, Liliana lifted her eyes and looked at him curiously.
“Why are you giving me that look? Is something bothering you?” Liliana asked, her curiosity piqued.
At her question, Leon wanted to express his thoughts, but he hesitated.
To be honest, considering Liliana’s trust in him, Leon himself felt inferior and burdened by guilt regarding his clandestine attempts to heal his powers.
Even though he occasionally displayed shameless behavior, he was well aware of his boundaries.
Observing Leon’s hesitant attempts as he faltered, opening and closing his mouth without uttering a word, Liliana’s expression morphed into a mixture of confusion and displeasure.
She sensed that Leon’s demeanor implied he wasn’t taking her seriously.
“If there’s something on your mind, Leon, don’t hold back. Do you have any concerns you need to voice? If so, please share,” Liliana urged, her tone tinged with dissatisfaction.
In response, Leon emitted a soft sigh before admitting, “Actually, I require something from you, Liliana.”
“Hm? Require something from me?” Liliana blinked in confusion, casting a strange glance at Leon.
“If you require something, just ask. There’s no need to hesitate, Leon,” Liliana said in a nonchalant and calm tone, conveying an implicit assurance that she would fulfill his request regardless.
Sensing her love and unwavering support, Leon felt deeply touched and could no longer contain himself.
“Cough! Actually, I need your blood essence,” Leon blurted out bluntly.
“What? My blood essence?” Liliana was taken aback, her gaze fixed on Leon in disbelief.
“Um… I need your blood essence to create an antidote…” Leon paused briefly, taking a small breath, before proceeding to explain everything to Liliana, withholding no details.
As Leon explained, whether it was about the poison books Lyra had prepared from the inner palace library, the three forbidden books she had brought, or the devouring poison discovered within his own body, Liliana listened intently.
Her expression transitioned from shock to a contemplative silence.
Upon finishing his explanation, Leon fell silent, awaiting Liliana’s reaction.
Whether Liliana would be angry and disappointed or not, Leon remained uncertain.
Nevertheless, committed to honesty, he steeled himself to accept whatever outcome awaited him.
Given Liliana’s immense trust in him, he couldn’t help but feel like a bastard if he didn’t reciprocate that trust.
Fortunately, Liliana, upon hearing Leon’s entire explanation, did not display any anger, contrary to his expectations.
Instead, she simply nodded with her usual expression.
“Alright, then, I’ll provide you with my blood essence to assist you,” Liliana responded casually and calmly.
This left Leon slightly incredulous, and he regarded her with surprise.
“Aren’t you angry?” Leon asked cautiously.
“Angry? Of course, I am angry, but since you dared to be honest, my anger isn’t too intense,” Liliana said with a light smile.
Leon took a deep breath, gazing at the woman in his arms in amazement.
“You really…” Leon began to express his gratitude, but Liliana immediately interrupted him with a cold tone.
“But since you dared to conceal it, you must be punished!”
Leon’s expression froze instantly, and before he could utter a word, he felt a restraining force immobilizing him.
Then, Liliana, who had been in his arms, swiftly shifted position and sat atop him, a cold smile gracing her lips as she declared, “Tonight, I won’t let you sleep~”
As he gazed at her smile, which held a hint of menace, Leon felt a twinge of dread in both his kidneys.
“Damn! It looks like tonight, both my kidneys are going to go dry!”
