Miranda smiled gently at Charlotte, Iris, Fiona, and Stella before bowing her head slightly.
"Nice to et you, young ladies. My na is Miranda, and I am Master's sword spirit," she said politely.
While Charlotte, Iris, and Stella stood frozen in shock, Fiona regained her confident smile.
"Hmph! I told you, sisters. I wasn't lying at all," she said proudly. "This beautiful sister is the one I saw before—I wasn't imagining things!"
Her words sank in, bringing embarrassed smiles to the three little girls—especially Iris, who had assud Fiona was just daydreaming.
"Hehehe..." Iris scratched her cheek awkwardly. "Sorry, Fiona. I didn't realize the beautiful sister you were talking about was actually real."
Being kind and forgiving, Fiona simply nodded enthusiastically without making her sister feel bad.
Leon watched their interaction with a gentle smile. "Since Miranda is my sword spirit, you don't have to be too formal with her. You can just call her sister."
Fiona's eyes sparkled with excitent. Stepping forward, she eagerly took Miranda's hand.
"Sister Miranda, let introduce myself! My na is Fiona, and I'm Daddy's cutest daughter," she said with a sweet smile.
Sohow, upon seeing Miranda, Fiona felt an inexplicable sense of familiarity.
She couldn't understand why, but she was certain that Miranda would never harm her or have any ill intentions. Because of that, she felt completely at ease.
anwhile, Miranda smiled gently at Fiona's enthusiasm.
"Hello, Fiona," she greeted warmly.
Not wanting to be left behind, Iris quickly stepped forward.
"Sister Miranda, I'm Iris, and I'm Daddy's most beautiful daughter!" she declared proudly.
Charlotte introduced herself next, her voice calm and composed. "My na is Charlotte. Hello, Sister Miranda."
"My na is Stella. Hello, Sister Miranda," Stella said, bowing her head politely.
Though Miranda already knew all of their nas, she chose to pretend otherwise.
With a gentle smile, she gave a small nod and said, "It's nice to et you too, Charlotte, Iris, and Stella."
As they grew more comfortable with each other, Leon glanced up at the sun, which was growing hotter, and said, "Alright, let's keep going. There are still plenty of fun places to see in the capital."
Hearing that, Fiona, Iris, Charlotte, and Stella lit up with excitent and eagerly responded, "Let's go!"
With their group now larger, their stroll through Erantum beca even more enjoyable.

"Cooperation plan, huh? I didn't expect Leon to move this fast." Explore hidden tales at My Virtual Library Empire
In her workspace, Liliana sat comfortably, crossing her long legs.
Her gaze fell on the golden-white letter in her hand, and a faint smile crossed her lips.
It had only been a few months since Leon sent a letter stating his intention to settle his affairs in the Holy Empire of Elysium.
Though he hadn't explained directly, Liliana knew exactly what he ant—revenge against Velix.
Considering Velix was the mastermind behind all his suffering, it was no surprise.
What truly amazed her was how quickly Leon had handled everything.
Not only had he resolved his own matters, but he also managed to unite the leaderless Holy Empire of Elysium with the Holy Orthodox under Saint Arshley's leadership.
Although the newly ford governnt was still far from stable, Liliana was certain it was only a matter of ti before it fully solidified.
Now, humanity's territory was officially unified under the Holy Orthodox.
If she had received this news before eting Leon, she would have felt wary—maybe even developed a headache.
But now… Hehehe… why would she worry?
Instead, she felt pleased. With humanity united, their preparations to face the Evil God would progress even further.
Besides, the Holy Orthodox was different from the Holy Empire of Elysium.
Throughout its thousands of years of history, it had always been passive, rarely taking direct action against the demon race.
Though she didn't know the exact reason, she suspected it had sothing to do with their hidden history.
Snapping out of her thoughts, Liliana folded the letter, slipped it into a golden envelope, and set it on the table.
Stretching her stiff body with a lazy expression, she let out a satisfied sigh. Her alluring curves were undeniably seductive—any man would surely be left srized.
Feeling more relaxed, she pulled a black and gold letter from her desk drawer, then reached for a gold-feathered pen from the small compartnt beside her.
A faint red light flickered at the nib as she carefully began writing.
Ten minutes passed before she finally finished. Folding the letter neatly, she placed it inside an ornate gray envelope and called out, "Lyra."
*Whoosh!*
In an instant, Lyra appeared beside her and bowed respectfully.
"May I assist you, Your Majesty Empress?"
Liliana handed her the envelope and instructed, "Ensure this letter is delivered to Saint Arshley."
Without hesitation, Lyra accepted it with care. "As you command, Your Majesty."
In the blink of an eye, she vanished from sight.
Liliana smiled faintly, gazing at the clear sky through the large window behind her.
"Things are getting more interesting..."
...
Ti passed slowly, and before anyone realized it, night had fallen, replacing the once-clear sky.
Miranda's Moon and Sylvia's Moon shone brightly, surrounded by a sea of twinkling stars.
Inside the room, Leon sat in a chair, watching Charlotte, Iris, Fiona, and Stella, who were fast asleep on the bed.
A soft smile ford on his lips as he gently stroked Charlotte's face.
"They must be exhausted," he murmured.
After spending nearly the entire day exploring the capital without rest, fatigue had finally caught up with them. The mont they lay down, sleep overtook them instantly.
Sitting comfortably, he leisurely sipped his tea while observing their peaceful, adorable faces.
Half an hour passed, and as the last drop of tea left his cup, he decided it was ti to return to his room.
However, just as he stood and turned to leave, Lyra suddenly appeared before him.
"Good evening, Your Majesty Leon," she greeted respectfully.
Leon offered a small smile and nodded. "Good evening, Lyra. It's been a while since we last t, and I can sense you've grown stronger."
As an Arch-demon, Lyra was naturally powerful. But now, Leon could sense the fluctuations of demonic power seeping from her body, a clear sign of her drastic increase in strength.
Shock briefly flashed across Lyra's face at his words, but she quickly regained her composure and smiled faintly. "It seems there's nothing I can hide from you, Your Majesty Leon."
Leon chuckled softly but said nothing. Instead, he smoothly shifted the topic. "So, do you need sothing from ?"
Lyra nodded slowly. "I co at the behest of Her Majesty the Demon Empress. She wishes to see you in her room."
At the ntion of "Demon Empress," Leon's brows lifted slightly. Liliana's previous title had been Demon Emperor, not Demon Empress.
"Did sothing major happen while I was away?" He mused inwardly, curiosity stirring within him.
Setting aside his thoughts, he smiled and gave a brief nod. "Alright, I'll go see her."
With that, he walked past Lyra, making his way toward Liliana's room.
As she watched his figure disappear into the distance, Lyra let out a quiet sigh of admiration.
"His Majesty Leon is becoming more and more mysterious..."
