"Hmm, once your competition ends, you should rest well. In just a few short months, it's like you have completely transformed into a different person." "lI am quite satisfied with my current condition," Lilith placed the gift in her bag. She had a conceited expression. "I think I'm even prettier right now." "It's your aesthetics that is distorted.
