In the magnificent palace in the forest of death, Scarla was seen sitting pensively on the balcony of her room. She lamented her sadness at not being able to meet her idol again. Even though she was a Goddess, she was still a foreign Goddess in this dimension. So she couldn't do anything about the time that passed so quickly.
"Scarla, I'm sorry." Gabby stood behind Scarla.
Scarla stood up and turned her body to face Gabby, and she could see the look of regret on Gabby's face.
"If we hadn't changed dimensions at that time, none of this would have happened."
Seeing Gabby's regret, Scarla feels guilty too, and now it's not only her who feels lost. Gabby also feels the loss of her family because the time they don't realize has passed quickly.
"Miss, none of this is your fault. Please don't be sad either." Scarla, initially sad alone, now feels bad because of her selfishness. Even Gabby looked sadder than she was now at being unable to do anything.
It's not that Gabby can't or can't change time again. It's just that if Gabby does that, it's certain that later there will be big problems like before.
"Baba said that we went back to the past, but only for a moment, can't settle down." Gabby said.
"Is that true?" Scarla asked. Gabby nodded even though her face was stained with sadness.
"Do you want to meet Leon and have something to say?" Gabby asked.
Scarla nodded enthusiastically. "That's right, Miss. I have a final request to Leon."
"May I know?"
"I'm sorry, Miss. I can't tell you, but I'll let you know when the time is right." Scarla replied that she couldn't possibly tell Leon Scarla's request, which could be considered very extreme for a woman.
"Okay, it's okay. I hope it's a good thing," Gabby replied, starting to smile. "Once again, I apologize to you, Scarla."
Scarla nodded. There was no way she could blame Gabby for everything that had happened. Scarla could only blame the arrival of the Gods and the Red Sun Eclipse at that time because it was also impossible for the Gods to fight in the human world. Whereas in the dimension where they fought, destruction almost filled that dimension.
"Do you want to do it now? Emilio wants to come back this time."
Scarla looked at Gabby expectantly. "Yes, Miss."
"Alright, summon Emilio, you will enter the Portal at the same time."
Scarla rushed to call Emilio, and she wanted to meet Leon in the past, even though later she and Leon couldn't be together. Later there will be things that can make Scarla continue to remember Leon.
After calling Emilio, the two of them turned to Gabby. Gabby could see that filled their faces with hope.
It didn't take long, and Gabby immediately opened the Portal.
"Come in. Remember, you only have one day there." Gabby said. Scarla and Emilio smiled widely with joy even though they couldn't stay there for long.
–
Scarla and Emilio were at Emilio's former residence. Emilio's eyes lit up when he found out he was in his residence.
"Come on, I'll prepare the horse carriage." Emilio said. Scarla replied with an enthusiastic nod.
They boarded their respective horse-drawn carriages because their destinations were different. Scarla headed for Leon's residence, which was in the Empire, in contrast to Emilion, who had to travel half a day to Duke Charlotte's Residence in the Spinx Kingdom.
Scarla arrived first at her destination, and she immediately rushed to visit Leon's residence.
"Grand Duchess Scarla." Say hello to a Soldier guarding Leon's residence.
"Is Arch Duke Leon around?" asked Scarla.
"Yes, Miss. He is training in the training hall." The Soldier replied.
Scarla nodded her head and was accompanied by the Leon residence's maid towards the training hall. On her way to the training hall, Scarla's heart skipped a beat. Her longing for Leon was already intense, plus her thoughts about her future request to Leon.
"Please, Miss." Said the Butler of the Leon residence.
Scarla entered the training hall. Scarla spits out, seeing Leon shirtless and covered in sweat while training.
"Miss Scarla." Leon finished training when he saw Scarla standing at the hall's entrance.
When Leon walked up to Scarla, Scarla ran towards Leon and rushed to hug him, covered in sweat. Scarla completely ignored the maids who saw them.
Leon was transfixed for a moment in Scarla's tight embrace. Leon waved his hand, giving orders to the servants to leave them in the training hall. Leon could feel Scarla's body shaking, and he could also hear Scarla's small sobs.
"I miss you." Scarla tightened her arms, even more, her face buried in Leon's chest, slightly wet with sweat.
"What is it, Miss? Didn't we finish our date in the capital?" Leon felt strange with Scarla and thought they had only separated a few hours ago.
Scarla still silently hugged Leon. She remembered that after dating Leon, Scarla met with Shushu and Lucia, who discussed the Red Sun Eclipse that occurred the next day.
Scarla lifted her head. "I love you, love you so much." Scarla's eyes were blocked by a clear liquid ready to flow at any time.
Leon was perplexed by Scarla's behavior, but seeing him like that, Leon hugged Scarla tenderly.
"I love you too, Scarla." Leon stared deeply at Scarla.
Scarla wrapped her arms and kissed Leon's sexy lips. Scarla's action transfixed Leon until Scarla let go of the charge.
"I really love you." That was all Scarla could say.
Leon kissed Scarla's lips gently, realizing that Scarla's feelings for him were huge. The kiss Leon gave was full of tender affection. Leon didn't treat Scarla at all just for his lust.
"I love you too." Leon released a kiss. Their chests heaved up and down, inhaling deep breaths as they kissed each other's lips for a long time.
Scarla touched Leon's face. Leon's bead fascinated Scarla half to death. How could she be fascinated by this human in front of her? She does know that many goddesses fall in love with humans. Maybe what the goddesses who fall in love with humans feel is the same as what Scarla feels right now.
"Leon, may I ask you a favor? This is my last request."
"The last request? What is it? Why are you asking for the latter when I can grant you everything you ask for?" Leon felt strange about Scarla's intentions.
Scarla could no longer contain the fluid in her eyelids. "I beg you." Scarla spoke as clear liquid started to flow down her cheeks.
Leon felt a terrible pain seeing Scarla plead like that. He was in a dilemma, confused and worried about what had happened to Scarla.
"Very well, I will grant whatever you ask." Leon wiped the clear liquid that ran down Scarla's cheek.
Whatever Scarla asks for, he will do his best for the girl he loves.
