Vinnie Berent stared at Zhang Yuanqing and said:
"Other than that, don't you have anything else to say to me?"
What she wanted was obvious at a glance.
Zhang Yuanqing met the gaze of New Covenant County's cold, glamorous, and sexy chief prosecutor, then sighed. "Why do I have to deal with the original body's romantic debts?!"
After grumbling, he gave a bitter smile and said:
"Baby, I understand what you mean. I can swear that my feelings for you burn as fiercely as the Solar Origin. My heartlessness in the past wasn't because I was cruel—it was because I had no choice. The reason was precisely because I loved you deeply, so I didn't want to hurt you.
"Now that I've returned to normal and no longer suffer the Holy Grail's corruption, there are no more obstacles between us. My love for you will last until the world is destroyed."
Vinnie Berent remained outwardly indifferent and gave a cold laugh.
"Perhaps the world will be destroyed tomorrow."
Zhang Yuanqing spoke with righteous conviction. "That's why I'll do everything in my power to save the world—not for some greater cause, not for my homeland, but only so I can keep loving you."
Vinnie Berent was dazed for a moment. Finally, finally... she saw that Demon Lord again!

Vinnie had once imagined what he would be like if he had not been corrupted by the Fallen Holy Grail.
Now, she had her answer.
This was what her Demon Lord was like after breaking free of the corruption.
A sense of rediscovering an old love welled
