As dusk deepened, the world outside the window began to be swallowed by the night, stars twinkling in the sky of Ikteerethe. A full moon hung high, emitting a soft glow, and street lamps gradually lit up, illuminating the city at night. [The most updated chapters are the most complete and error-free.

Until the tiny dots of light on the bedroom windowpane slowly disappeared, as if the entire world had fallen asleep.

Seeing that Lanci had fallen asleep from exhaustion, Talya knew that even if she tried to wake him up, he wouldn't be able to get up in a short time. So she simply tossed him onto the table and left him there.

After fulfilling her promise to Lance, she finally took out the [Shadow World Records Program].

She had been wanting to watch it as soon as possible.

Even compared to going out for dinner, she felt this was more important.

Actually, besides the recorded Shadow World content, Talya cares more about the silver-haired, amber-eyed half-demon girl who participated in the challenge with Lance.

She reached into the bottom drawer of her bedside table and pulled out a modified magic projector. She inserted the [Shadow World Record Program] inside, adjusted the volume to the lowest setting so as not to wake Ranchi, then turned off the lights in the room.

Immediately, the opposite wall of the headboard began to project an image.

The room was consumed by darkness, the only source of light coming from the quietly whirring magic projector.

Talya watched silently, like someone watching a movie late at night, her hands clasped around her knees as she sat on the bed.

Her face was painted with a shifting, spectral light, now bright, now dim, constantly changing in the blink of an eye. Within this shadowy world, the voices of Lanche and Huberlian echoed through the room on the video.

Taliya gradually immersed herself in the story, as if isolated from the world. She stared at the figure of the girl in the painting, as if she were reminiscing about her closest demon kin.

"Iphigenia, is she your daughter..."

After an unknown amount of time, Tallia murmured to herself, her voice barely a whisper.

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

The day before yesterday, Talia watched the live stream of the Shadow World's latter half until the end. When she witnessed the cultists shouting that the countess was a half-demon, she began to deeply suspect that this countess might really be her sister's daughter.

If Talia could see Hyberlian in person, she might be able to sense if there was truly a blood connection between them.

However, Talia wasn't comfortable approaching the embattled Duchess in a crowded place.

Tallia just thought it looked more and more like her.

Perhaps later I can find a way to ask Ranchi to arrange for this duchess to meet with me privately.

Thinking along those lines, Talya also saw Lynch's cruel and inhumane treatment of the demon race in the Devil's Arena in the painting.

She gradually furrowed her brow.

Although their long time together, gradually made her more familiar with Lance.

But it was also at this moment that she would, as if coming to her senses, feel more intensely than ever the hatred and rejection between humans and demons.

Humans can never coexist peacefully with demons.

And Lan Qi's current peaceful coexistence and constant trade with her are solely due to his ignorance of his true identity as a great demon.

On the day he learns the truth, he will certainly cast a malicious gaze upon himself.

on the projection screen.

Ranch and Huberlyan had just left the Devil's Arena, following the demon students down the hallway.

Hubert ran back and forth, as if hesitating for a long time, finally lowering his voice to probe Lynch:

"Lance, what is your view on demons"

Lance was slightly taken aback upon hearing this, then replied:

"She can live a long time, hundreds of years old. Even though she's very old, she still looks like a young girl."

"……"！

Let me know if you'd like to translate anything else!

In the bedroom, Talia instantly glanced at Lance who was sleeping soundly at the table.

She doesn't know if Lancy did it intentionally or unintentionally.

But she felt that no matter what, it was enough that Lanchi would think this way.

And, Lanci responded thusly.

Even still, they held the same prejudice against the demon race as humans, treating them as monsters.

The sound and images on the screen are still continuing——

"And if you met a demon in the real world, would you act the same way"

Huberly, still a little uneasy, followed up with Lance.

Lancy looked at her silently, as if speechless for a while.

Finally, he countered.

"Do you think I'm like an old壽星 eating arsenic, thinking my life is too long"

Tallia watched Ranchi's reaction to the painting with keen eyes.

I think he's getting more and more annoying.

Soon, Lance once again earnestly cautioned Huberly:

"Let's not talk about whether attracting the Demon Clan is dangerous or not. The Demon Clan might have good people too, Huberlian, don't discriminate against them."

Upon hearing this, Talia seemed to freeze.

Until, after a long time.

She then looked once more at the human boy who was still asleep.

Just like that, she stared at him, and no one knew what thoughts were hidden deep within her golden eyes.

"…"

A gentle breeze blew in through the half-open window, caressing Lanqi's body softly.

It seemed as if he could feel a gaze upon him, and Lance felt a chill run down his spine. His eyes fluttered open involuntarily.

It wasn't the warm wooden furniture in this dim room that caught his attention, but rather a pair of golden eyes from afar and the beautiful face they belonged to.

In those cold yet noble eyes, a hint of confusion, emotion, and bewilderment could not be concealed.

Like wanting to keep someone at arm's length while also wanting to probe a little deeper.

Lance raised his hand and touched his cheek.

He thought that he must have something on his face from sleep, which is why Talya was staring at him like that.

"Um...Tata Sorry, I fell asleep. What time is it now"

Lanche tentatively asked, wondering if his nap would upset Talia.

It was just past twelve o'clock.

Talya glanced at her watch, replying to him.

Lanche let out a slight sigh of relief, it seemed Talia wasn't angry.

If she's angry, she'll always lash out at herself instead of answering me.

"Oh, you're starting to look at Shadow World content now"

He quickly noticed the only light source in the bedroom.

"…"

Talia turned her gaze back to the screen, silent for a moment. Then, after a pause, she spoke again,

"What do you think of the Duchess who challenges the world of cinema with you"

"What a nice person."

Lance answered immediately, knowing that Talia was trying to glean information about her kin.

Lance was planning to introduce Huberly to Talia and get them acquainted, after the company was established.

The powerful demon Tallia should have been able to see through Huberlian's half-demon heritage at a glance, but Huberlian could barely see through Tallia's masterful disguise.

While Ranchi was thinking.

"Don't bully her, demons have heavy killing intent. If you anger her, I might not be able to protect you."

Taliya simply stated this calmly.

In her words, she seemed to be only carrying out her duty of protecting Lance. She didn't show Lance at all that she wanted to protect Huberlian.

"What are you talking about! I'm not a bully, I'm an honor student!"

Lance clutched his head and complained incredulously.

A person like Huberly, such an honest individual, would never bully anyone.

And Huberly's so gentle, she's completely different from that cantankerous old hag, Talia, who's always plotting and filled with murderous intent!

"I'm sorry."

Tallia is certain that Lance is telling the truth.

As she watched from the open-air Grand Plaza of Ictereus Academy, she could clearly feel the students' disapproval of the duchess's demonic lineage.

But throughout the entirety of his Shadow World, D'Lanci always genuinely regarded Huberlian as a trustworthy companion.

Until his true identity as Huberlian was revealed, this sincerity did not waver.

"Huh, Tata, what did you just say"

Ranche blinked, placing a hand to his ear and tilting his head as if unsure if he'd heard correctly.

"He didn't say anything."

Taliya felt this guy was getting a bit annoying again.

And he seemed to be mentally very active just now!

"Don't worry, Tata. I won't allow discrimination against kind students happening in the academy!"

Ranch grinned at Talya.

During her silence, Lance happily made a pair of scissors with his hands.

"My purpose is to love all beings equally!"

">…"

Talya didn't respond.

She was certain this creature's "love" was a little terrifying, especially for those who had crossed his.

But correspondingly, if they are friendly beings, even demons, he will treat them with sincerity.

After decades of traveling through the human kingdoms, Talia had convinced herself that there were no humans capable of treating demons without prejudice.

—until she witnessed Lanci’s attitude towards Huberlian.

She saw the first one.

In the dim room, no one spoke. This silence continued for a while.

Only the quiet of the royal city remained, a gentle breeze rustling the curtains.

Are you hungry

Talya asked.

"I'm so hungry."

Lanche touched his belly, and after the feeling of drowsiness from just waking up dissipated, a wave of hunger washed over him.

"Let's go have dinner, I'll treat you tonight."

Taliya's voice gave nothing away as she stepped off the bed and walked across the soft carpet.

It is said that human teachers reward students when they perform well, so to better imitate humans, it should be fine to give him a treat.

This is also to make him more loyal to himself.

"Hey Tata are you asking me out to dinner"

Lanche looked at himself in surprise, his expression a little hard to believe.

"Ask no more."

Tallia glanced at him, then walked out of the room without looking back.

Thanks to the White Silver Guildmaster, I will try my best to update more these days!
