Liliana's Unusual Request and the Astonishing News That Followed

A question mark appeared above Leon's head because he never expected that one day he, Leon Kruger, would be asked for help by the legendary Demon Emperor.

If this news were to spread, what kind of storm would it unleash worldwide?

Nevertheless, given that he had no alternative, he could not help but nod slightly.

"Of course, since you saved me and have no intention of killing me, I'll be happy to help you as long as it doesn't violate my principles." Leon agreed without hesitation and laid out some conditions.

He no longer paid much attention to Liliana's status as the Demon Emperor, even though he was a hero.

After all, he was now in a paralyzed state and betrayed by the bastards in the palace, making it impossible for him to return to human territory.

Perhaps he would temporarily take refuge in this place while recovering his strength and plotting his revenge.

As the ancient saying goes, "It's never too late for a man to take his revenge, even after ten years!"

Liliana smiled subtly and cast a fleeting glance in his direction.

"Don't worry; I won't ask you to do anything you're unwilling to do. I simply need you to look after and care for three individuals—a task only you can handle," Liliana assured, a subtle sparkle in her eyes carrying a deeper meaning.

"What? Look after and care for three people, and I'm the only one who can do it?" Leon blinked in confusion, asking hesitantly as he heard her words.

He couldn't grasp the woman's meaning at all.

Taking care of three people? Who are they, and why is he the only person capable of doing so?

Her incomplete and ambiguous words left him irritated, as he couldn't grasp her meaning at all.

As he remained perplexed about her intentions, Liliana's cold voice rang out once again.

"That's correct, three individuals—specifically, I want you to take care of three little girls and assume responsibility for their well-being." Her words instantly caused Leon's face to stiffen as if he had suffered a stroke.

Had he been certain that there were no bugs or obstructions covering his ears, he might have thought he had misheard.

Taking care of the children? Are you kidding me?

The hero of mankind and the strongest man were being asked to take care of three little girls?

If those who knew him heard the Demon Emperor's request, they would likely laugh themselves to death.

Initially, he had expected Liliana to request that he train Demon Soldiers or do similar tasks to enhance the strength of the Demon Race.

However, what had he just heard? Guarding and taking care of three little girls?

Leon took a deep breath and settled onto the bed, giving Liliana a puzzled glance.

"Wait a minute! You're not joking with me, are you?" Leon asked urgently, attempting to discern whether this woman was merely jesting or being serious.

Unfortunately, he found no trace of jest on her indifferent-looking face, momentarily leaving him dumbfounded.

"Did you think I would joke around with something like this?" Liliana asked in a flat tone, folding her arms across her chest and accentuating her huge breasts as if they were eager to break free from their cages.

Observing the gravity in her words and finding no reason for her to deceive him, Leon couldn't help but accept this reality.

He rubbed his temples and then turned his gaze back to her.

"Then, who are these three little girls you want me to take care of? Are they your daughters?" Leon asked, infusing a hint of humor and mockery into his tone.

Even though he anticipated that Liliana might be furious at his jest, he wasn't afraid of it.

This was also a form of retaliation for his dissatisfaction with her request to take care of three little girls!

To his surprise, rather than reacting with anger, Liliana responded with a small nod of confirmation, saying, "You're not wrong. They are indeed my biological daughters, and I want you to take care of them."

Upon hearing her words, Leon nearly leaped from his bed, a look of disbelief washing over his handsome face as he stared at Liliana in apprehension.

"Daughters?! You genuinely have three daughters!?" Leon asked with a trembling tone, as if he had just unearthed an unbelievable truth.

Little did he know that his jest had turned out to be a stark reality!

The current Demon Emperor had three daughters; if this information were to spread to the Elysium Empire and the Holy Orthodox, the potential uproar could be unimaginable.

The information about this generation's Demon Emperor was already shrouded in mystery, and Leon was certain that even the higher-ups in the Empire and Holy Orthodox might be unaware that the current Demon Emperor was a woman!

If you add to that the revelation that this woman, the Demon Emperor, also had three daughters, the magnitude of the revelation would be enormous.

"Hiss~" Leon took a deep breath, his heart skipping a beat, still unable to escape the shock of this news.

He couldn't help but wonder which damn man had the privilege of being the husband of the Demon Emperor.

How much good did that bastard do in his hundred previous lives to be blessed with three daughters from this woman?

Despite Liliana being a fierce and cruel woman, he couldn't deny that her figure and temperament were unparalleled in the world.

A flawlessly curvaceous body, adorned with huge breasts and a plump derriere, is capable of making any woman grit their teeth in envy.

Furthermore, her exquisite and flawless face, seemingly crafted directly by the gods, adorned with snow-like white long hair, and coupled with her cold and indifferent temperament resembling that of a domineering queen, were so perfect that any man would aspire to conquer her.

As an (ahem!) expert in this area, Leon understands all too well that a woman with such a personality is nearly impossible to conquer unless one surpasses her in strength.

Regrettably, she was the Demon Emperor, holding a position at the world's pinnacle, a place where perhaps only heroes like himself could vie for parity with her.

Gradually, Leon regained his composure and shook his head.

"To be honest, I was taken aback by the news of you having three daughters, and if I hadn't heard it directly from you, I might not have believed it. However, I apologize, but I absolutely cannot fulfill this request of yours. Instead, you should ask your husband to take care of them, not me." Leon promptly rejected her request to care for her three daughters.

Just kidding. Asking him to take care of three little girls?

Hey! He wasn't a babysitter, and he was too lazy to look after small children!

Moreover, he wasn't particularly comfortable with small children; to him, they were troublesome, and he didn't feel suited to this job at all.

If given a choice between going to war with the entire army and the Demon Emperor simultaneously or taking care of small children, he would choose the former without hesitation.

So, sorry, but he'll have to refuse without a second thought!

Upon hearing Leon's resolute refusal, Liliana showed no signs of anger, having anticipated his rejection.

After all, she wasn't a reckless individual who would ask a stranger, let alone an enemy, to care for her three daughters.

However, Leon, though indeed her eternal fated enemy, was not a stranger to her three little daughters because he was...

"Don't be hasty in refusing, Leon Kruger. I'm not foolish enough to entrust the care of my three daughters to a stranger and an enemy like yourself. However, do you remember my words that only you are suitable for this task?" Liliana stated it indifferently, a faint smile gracing her sexy lips.

Leon's face immediately registered confusion upon hearing her words, and he nodded.

"Yes, I still remember," Leon answered cautiously, curious about what routine this woman had in mind.

Liliana's smile widened as she smoothed her white hair, strolling over to Leon, who was seated on the bed.

"There was actual significance in what I said... Leon Kruger, the incident four years ago in the city of Artamonth on the border region of mankind—do you still recall it?"
