My Love Debts Are Everywhere!

Daylight...

"Ugh..." Leon groaned softly, slowly opening his heavy eyelids.

"Hm? Where am I?" He muttered, staring at the ceiling, which seemed both unfamiliar and familiar to his still semi-conscious mind.

Still feeling tired and sore in some areas, Leon slowly sat up in bed and observed his surroundings, realizing he was in his own room.

"Huh? My room? How is that possible? Why is everything so neat and clean?" Leon gasped in shock, his consciousness snapping back fully as he looked around.

He distinctly remembered his room being a chaotic mess, cluttered from repeated failures in concocting an antidote to the devouring poison.

Each failure had ended in an explosion, leaving the walls and furniture in disarray.

Therefore, upon realizing that the clean and cozy environment was indeed his room, Leon found it hard to believe.

"Am I still dreaming?" he wondered, frowning.

To confirm, Leon pinched his cheek tightly.

"Ouch! That hurts!" Wincing in pain, he let go of his cheek, which now bore a red mark from the hard pinch.

"Damn! This isn't a dream; it's reality!" Leon exclaimed, taking a deep breath in amazement as he rubbed his sore cheek.

Initially convinced he was dreaming after seeing his clean and cozy room, he now realized it was real.

After confirming that everything was not a dream, two questions suddenly arose in his mind: who had cleaned his room and who had carried him to the bed?

He remembered the last scene before losing consciousness: he was in the bathroom about to take a shower but collapsed from exhaustion after staying up four consecutive nights. His body, currently no more resilient than an ordinary human's, had tensed up, causing him to faint on the spot.

So, who had brought him to bed and cleaned his bedroom?

As Leon pondered this in confusion, he suddenly heard a small groan to his right.

"Ummm~" The sudden sound of a woman's moan beside him made Leon's body tense and stiffen like a log.

With robotic stiffness, he slowly turned his head to the side, his heart nearly leaping out of his chest at what he saw.

Beside him lay an extraordinarily beautiful woman, deeply asleep, her form resting on her left side and facing him.

Her beauty was breathtaking, akin to that of a goddess descended from the heavens, rendering even the word "beautiful" inadequate to describe her perfection.

Not only was her face incredibly beautiful, but her long white hair, flowing behind her like snow, was equally mesmerizing.

This beautiful woman was, of course, none other than Liliana, causing Leon to freeze in disbelief at seeing her beside him.

"L-Liliana!? What is she doing here?" Leon gasped in shock, his astonishment evident in his exclamation.

He never expected Liliana to be in his room, let alone sleeping next to him!

"Ehmmm~" As if in response to Leon's exclamation, Liliana, deeply asleep, stirred, her eyelids slowly opening.

As her eyelids fluttered open, her blood-red eyes locked onto Leon's golden eyes, holding each other's stare for a fleeting moment.

Immediately, a beautiful, extraordinarily charming smile graced Liliana's lips as she leaned slightly against the pillow, greeting him, "Good afternoon, Leon. Have you awoken from your deep slumber?"

Upon hearing her words, Leon, momentarily dazed by her presence, swiftly regained his composure, feeling a slight twitch at the left corner of his mouth.

"Liliana... How did you end up in my room? And did you tidy up the mess in my room and also move me to the bed?" Leon uttered his question, his expression a mix of doubt and confusion as he gestured around the room.

In response to Leon's question, Liliana simply smiled and shot him a playful glance.

"Guess what~" Liliana teased, her tone carrying a hint of flirtation.

Leon: "..."

Could this woman be a little serious and answer him directly?

"Hah~" Leon sighed, shaking his head slightly.

He didn't need to ask; he was already certain it was Liliana.

With that in mind, Leon opted to pose a different question.

"When did you return from the outer palace to the inner palace?" Leon blinked, curiosity piqued.

"Yesterday afternoon," Liliana replied lazily, her soft gaze lingering on Leon as if finding solace in his presence to ease her longing.

"Oh? Yesterday afternoon? Then, why didn't you tell me and visit my room earlier?" Leon inquired, a hint of surprise in his voice.

Liliana rolled her eyes, her reply tinged with exasperation. "It's not that I didn't want to visit you, but I was afraid of disturbing you yesterday. So, I decided to come today."

"However, I didn't expect your room to be in such disarray. The walls, the furniture, the books—everything is covered in black stains, as if your room had been struck by some sort of explosion magic."

At her words, Leon felt a flush of embarrassment color his cheeks.

It wasn't that he didn't intend to tidy up his room, but every failed attempt at concocting an antidote for the devouring poison resulted in explosions and chaos.

The explosions not only coated the room's walls and furniture with black stains but also sent cabinets, reading desks, bookcases, and other furnishings tumbling, resulting in utter chaos.

Hence, instead of dealing with the troublesome task of cleaning up after each failed attempt, Leon chose to ignore the mess and focus on his experiments to concoct an antidote for the devouring poison.

With a slight cough, Leon said, "Ehem! I really didn't intentionally mess up the whole room."

"Every time I fail at concocting an antidote for the devouring poison, there's an explosion that messes up everything and dirties the room." Leon let out a small, helpless sigh.

With a slightly regretful tone, Leon continued, "Furthermore, just as I was about to clean the entire room, I suddenly fainted in the bathroom as I—"

Before Leon could finish his sentence, an excruciating pain shot through his waist.

"Ouch!" Leon screamed, jumping up from his seated position.

Still in shock, he looked to the side and realized the pain was caused by Liliana pinching his waist!

"L-Liliana! Why did you pinch me?" Leon asked in a disgruntled voice. His face scrunched up in pain as he rubbed his reddened waist beneath his shirt.

At his question, Liliana narrowed her eyes with coldness and annoyance.

"Of course it's to punish you," Liliana said coldly.

"Ha? Punish me?" Leon frowned, his confusion evident.

Liliana didn't immediately respond to his question. Instead, she leaned back against the bed, her arms folded in front of her, emphasizing her huge chest.

"When I visited your room, I knocked repeatedly on your door without receiving any answer, which worried me. Consequently, I decided to enter and was surprised to find the entire room in disarray." Liliana explained in a dissatisfied tone and continued, "Moreover, upon discovering you weren't in your room, I resorted to magic to search further, only to find you unconscious in the bathroom..."

Liliana paused, her lovely features twisted with a blend of concern and anger.

Listening to her explanation, Leon finally comprehended why she had pinched him and also acknowledged his mistake.

Indeed, at that moment, he hadn't anticipated fainting in the bathroom due to exhaustion from staying up for four consecutive nights without sleep.

Additionally, he had overlooked the fact that his current physique was no better than that of an ordinary person, rendering him extremely weak.

With guilt weighing on his heart, Leon sighed and bowed his head slightly.

"I'm sorry..." he apologized, his handsome face reflecting deep regret.

However, Liliana merely glanced at him coldly before looking away, clearly still angry.

Leon smiled wryly, realizing he needed to persuade her. Moving slowly, he shifted to Liliana's side and gently pulled her into his arms.

"I'm sorry, Liliana. I promise I won't do it again," Leon murmured, tenderly brushing her white hair.

"Hmph!" Liliana didn't reply, instead snorting coldly and burying her face in Leon's broad chest.

Though she appeared to be still angry, Leon knew she had already forgiven him.

A faint smile bloomed on Leon's lips as he observed her childlike demeanor.

"By the way, have you organized the formation of the Demon troops for the upcoming war?" Leon asked curiously.

Liliana closed her eyes, momentarily intoxicated by Leon's scent.

"Everything is in order and under control. The troops are already heading to the Desert of Chaos to confront humanity's forces," she replied in a lazy and indifferent voice.

For the past four days, she has been working nonstop to arrange and organize everything, from preparing the troops for the battle in the Desert of Chaos to managing government affairs.

Hence, in the next few days, she would be completely free from any issues, allowing her to spend quality time with Leon and their three daughters while monitoring the progress of the upcoming war.

Relieved by her explanation, Leon let out a sigh and offered her a slight nod.

"You've worked hard," he said with a gentle smile on his lips.

Liliana smiled back and rested her head on Leon's chest again.

"By the way, about the antidote for the devouring poison, did you..." Liliana slightly raised her head and asked in a cautious tone.

Faced with her sudden question, Leon's expression darkened, immediately revealing the answer to Liliana without him needing to speak.

"Well, it's fine if you fail. Later, I'll help you, and together we'll concoct an antidote to the devouring poison, okay?" Liliana continued, rubbing Leon's handsome face affectionately.

Upon hearing her words, Leon's once dull and dark expression instantly brightened, and a confident smile appeared on his lips.

"Who says I failed?"
