Rio had learned from Kevin's failed love story and knew that communication was key to a successful relationship.
If Rio wanted to, he could have just sneaked away and left for the Demon Continent without telling anyone, but that would not only upset everyone but hurt Lia the most.
To Rio, going to the Demon Continent for the ascension was just a small matter; settling down and living a peaceful life with Lia was his biggest goal right now.
So, for the sake of a small issue, Rio did not want to disturb his peaceful future.
Moreover, Lia was a smart and understanding person; it was better to just talk things out with her instead of hiding it all.
And just like Rio had expected, Lia agreed to wait for his successful return.
After the talking session at breakfast, Rio spent the rest of the day wandering around in the vast garden of the Silver Mansion with Lia.
In the morning, the two of them strolled around the garden and planted several flowers in the garden together.
