Chapter 64: Surprise Attack

Shortly after Leo and the others left Fairwood City, Lilith hovered in front of him and said with a stern expression on her face, "Leo, listen to me and remember what I am about to say."

"What's the matter? Why are you so serious?" He raised an eyebrow at her.

"You will understand later, but for now, listen to me. When I give you the signal, I want you to use Dark Shield. Do not even think about anything else— just use it."

"Mind explaining to me what is going on?" He asked.

"I would love to, but due to circumstances, I cannot. You might blame me later for this, but I don't care. I am doing this for your own good."

"..."

Leo was speechless, and an uneasy feeling appeared in his guts.

"What did I just tell you?" Lilith asked him a moment later.

"When you give me the signal, I will use Dark Shield."

"Good."

However, Lilith would continue to remind him throughout the day. Besides that, she barely spoke a word, almost as though she was focused on something else.
