Do not confiscate my citizenship

Chapter 93 Thalia's Change in Lankey

As the twilight deepened, the world outside the window began to be swallowed up by the night, the stars began to twinkle in the night sky of Icarite, the full moon was hung high, emitting soft light, and the street lamps on the streets were gradually lit up, illuminating the royal capital night.

Until the dots of light on the glass of the bedroom window slowly disappeared, as if the whole world had fallen into sleep.

Seeing that Lan Qi fell asleep due to the exhaustion of mana, Talia knew that even if she wanted to scream for a short time, she would not be able to wake him up, so she simply left him by the table.

After dealing with the duties she promised to Lan Qi, she finally took out the [Shadow World Recording Program].

She had long wanted to watch it for the first time.

Even compared to going to dinner, she thinks this is more important.

In fact, in addition to the content of Shadow World recorded in it, Talia is more concerned about the half-demon girl with silver hair and amber eyes who participated in the challenge with Lan Qi.

She took out a magical projector modified by herself from the bottom shelf of the bedside table, put the [Shadow World Recording Program] into it, adjusted the sound to the minimum that would not wake Lan Qi, and then turned off the room lights in.

Immediately, images began to be projected on the dark wall facing the head of the bed.

The room was completely occupied by darkness, and the only source of light was the silently running magic projector.

As if watching a movie late at night, Talia hugged her knees with her hands and sat on the bed to watch silently.

The dim light and shadow of the picture reflected on her face, bright or dark, changing rapidly, and the voices of Lanci and Huberian in the movie world video echoed in the room.

Talia was gradually immersed in the story, as if isolated from the world, staring at the figure of the girl in the picture, as if missing the closest demon.

"Iphatia, is she your daughter..."

After an unknown amount of time, Talia muttered to herself, making a faint sound.

Although they don't look alike, their hair color and eye color are too similar.

The day before yesterday, after watching the live broadcast of the second half of the movie world, until the end, Talia witnessed the cultists calling out that the princess was a half-demon, and then she deeply began to suspect that this princess might really be her sister's daughter.

If she could see Huberian with her own eyes, Talia might be able to perceive whether there was really a blood connection between them.

However, it was not easy for Thalia to meet this princess who was on the cusp of the storm in a crowded place.

Thalia just felt more and more like it.

In the future, I might find a way to ask Lan Qi to take this princess to meet me in private.

Thinking of this, Talia also saw in the screen Lan Qi's inappropriate and brutal treatment of demons in the demon examination room.

Gradually she frowned.

Although she got along with Lan Qi for a long time, she gradually became familiar with Lan Qi.

But at this moment, as if she had woken up, she felt more and more the hatred and rejection between humans and demons.

After all, it is impossible for human beings to coexist friendly with demons.

And the reason why Lan Qi can get along with her so well and continue to make deals with her is only because he doesn't know that he is a big demon.

On the day when he knew the truth, he would definitely cast malicious eyes on himself.

on the projected screen.

Lan Qi and Huberian had just left the demon examination room and followed the demon students in the corridor.

Huberian seemed to hesitate for a long time while running, and finally lowered her voice and asked Lan Qi tentatively:

"Lankey, what do you think of demons?"

Lan Qi was slightly taken aback when he heard the words, and then replied:

"It can live for a long time, even if it is hundreds of years old, it will look like a young girl."

"...!"

Thalia in the bedroom glanced at Lan Qi who was sleeping at the table.

She didn't know if Lan Qi did it on purpose or not.

But she figured it was damned enough for Lankey to think that way anyway.

Moreover, Lan Qi replied like this.

It is still the same as those humans, full of prejudice against demons, and regards them as monsters.

The audio and video on the screen continues——

"Then if you encounter a demon in this world, will it be the same as before?"

Huberian still asked Lan Qi a little nervously.

Lan Qi looked at her without saying a word, and seemed to be speechless for a long time.

Finally, he opened his mouth and asked:

"You think I'm an old birthday star who eats arsenic, do you think I have a long life?"

Thalia had a panoramic view of Lankey's reaction on the screen.

I just feel like he's getting more and more annoying.

Soon, Lan Qi gave Huberian a sincere advice:
"Let's not talk about the danger of provoking the demons. Maybe the demons have good guys too. Huberian, please don't discriminate against the demons."

Hearing this, Thalia seemed to be stunned.

Until, after a long time.

Only then did she look at the sleeping human teenager again.

Looking at him like this, no one knows what she is thinking in the depths of her golden pupils.

"..."

A gust of cool wind blew out of the half-open window, gently caressing Lan Qi's body.

Seemingly feeling a vision, Lan Qi felt a little cold, and opened his eyes unconsciously.

What attracted his attention was not the warm wooden furniture in this dim room, but a pair of golden eyes and that beautiful face not far away.

There is a little confusion, emotion, and confusion in the cold and noble pupils.

It's like wanting to keep people away and at the same time want to explore a little bit more.

Lan Qi raised his hand to touch his face.

He thought it was because he got something on his face while he was asleep that Talia stared at him like this.

"Uh... Tata? I'm sorry I fell asleep, what time is it?"

Lan Qi asked tentatively, wondering if his drowsiness would make Talia angry.

"It's just past twelve."

Thalia glanced at the clock and answered him.

Lan Qi was slightly relieved, it seemed that Thalia was not angry.

If she is angry, she will definitely choke herself instead of answering herself.

"Ah, you're starting to watch Movie World content now."

He quickly noticed the only light source in the bedroom.

"..."

Thalia moved her eyes to the screen again, and remained silent until a while later, she spoke again,
"The princess who challenged Shadow World with you, what do you think of her?"

"People are nice."

Lan Qi replied decisively that he knew that Thalia wanted to inquire about the news of the same race.

Lan Qi was going to introduce Huberian to Talia, after the company was established.

Talia, an old demon who is much stronger than Huberian, should be able to see Huberian's half-demon identity at a glance, but Huberian has almost no way to see through Talia's delicate disguise.

While Lan Qi was thinking.

"Don't bully her. The demons are very murderous. If I offend her, I may not be able to protect you in time."

Thalia just said so calmly.

In the words, it seemed that she was only performing her duty of protecting Lan Qi, and did not reveal to Lan Qi that she wanted to protect Huberian at all.

"Who do you think I am! I'm not a school bully, I'm a good student with good character and academics!"

Lankey held his head and complained in disbelief.

He wouldn't bully an honest person like Huberian.

Moreover, Huberian has such a gentle personality, which is completely different from Talia, an old woman with a bad temper and a murderous heart!
"……Feel sorry."

Talia is convinced Lankey is telling the truth.

When watching it on the open-air giant screen square of Icarite Academy, she could clearly feel that the students didn't like the princess with demon blood.

But Lan Qi's entire movie world has sincerely regarded Huberian as a trustworthy companion from the beginning to the end.

This sincerity did not waver until she knew the identity of Huberian.

"Hey, Tata, what did you just say?"

Lan Qi suddenly opened his eyes, put his hands next to his ears and turned his head, as if he suspected that there was something wrong with his ears.

"Nothing to say."

Thalia felt that this guy was a little annoying again.

And he seemed mentally active again just now!
"Don't worry, Tata, I will not allow discrimination against kind students to happen in the academy!"

Lan Qi grinned and said to Thalia.

When she was silent, Lan Qi happily compared a pair of scissors:
"My purpose is to love all living beings equally!"

"..."

Talia didn't answer.

She's sure the guy's "love" is kind of scary, especially for guys who messed with him.

But correspondingly, if it is a friendly creature, even if it is a demon, he will treat it sincerely.

After Talia traveled through the human kingdom for decades, she was convinced that there would be no such human beings who could treat demons kindly without prejudice.

——Until she witnessed Lan Qi's attitude towards Huberian.

She saw the first one.

right in front of her eyes.

No one spoke in the dimly lit room, and it went on like this for a while.

Only the quiet night in the capital, the sound of the light breeze passing through the curtains.

"are you hungry?"

Talia asked.

"So hungry."

Lan Qi touched his stomach, and felt that after the sleepiness that had just woken up dissipated, the hunger surged up completely.

"Go to dinner, I'll pay the bill today."

Thalia's tone couldn't tell any emotion, she stepped off the bed and took steps on the soft carpet.

Human teachers are said to reward their students when they do well, so it should be fine to treat him a bit in order to better imitate a human.

This is also to make him more loyal to himself.

"Eh? Tata, do you want to treat me to dinner?"

Lan Qi pointed at himself in surprise, with an unbelievable expression.

"If you ask again, it will be gone."

Thalia glanced at him and walked out of the room without looking back.
