She looked away, covering her eyes, and stammered, "Don't just stand there. Get off my body. It's… a bit heavy and painful."
Hearing that, Leon relaxed and immediately stepped aside without saying a word.
Zelda sighed in relief, then sat up, biting her lower lip.
"What exactly happened?" she asked, confused.
Leon smiled and pointed around. "Look… what happened."
Zelda followed his gaze, and her expression instantly stiffened—filled with fear.
