Chapter 29

Although she had seen fancier and more impressive birthday setups in the mission world, Leticia couldn't help but feel like none of them had ever moved her in such a way. As soon as she opened her eyes, she caught sight of Samuel looking down at her, standing in front of the brilliant fireworks display. Samuel whispered, "I know I've said it before, but Leticia, I want you to know that I really like you." At that moment, he was holding out a bouquet of flowers—and it wasn't white lilies. Leticia's eyes were welling up with tears, but she still smiled faintly and said, "Although it is a rather cheesy confession, I'm willing to be with you." As soon as she said that, the melancholic prompt of the robotic voice sounded alongside the cheers from the crowd. "Congratulations, Samuel. You've achieved an affection level of 90% and have now completed the mission!" Having enjoyed cake and fireworks, Leticia's friends playfully pushed her into Samuel's arms before giggling and walking away.
