Chapter 386: The Eight Dukes

Outside, the skies were clear, giving off a pleasant vibe. Alex and Artemia looked at the city in awe, tall buildings with numerous man-made waterfalls. The duo moved; they visited famous spots such as an aquarium, the attraction park before ending in a restaurant.

The two ordered a salad and ate; after they finished, Lilith stared at Alex for a moment.

''What is it?" 

Alex couldn't help but ask; it wasn't like he disliked being stared at, however when you stare too much, even for him, it becomes uncomfortable. 

Finally, Lilith opened her mouth and said.

''Thank you for going along with my selfishness.'' 

Waving his hands, Alex responded, ''Don't worry, I have much fun. It's good to accompany a friend.'' 

''Friends? Huh! I'm happy that you think of me like that.'' Lilith responded with a smile; it was a beautiful smile, a genuine one coming from the heart.

Alex smiled back before his expression turned serious as he said.
