A strange world

Chapter 1187 Section 109. Five Color Halo

"Forget it, I don't blame you."

At the City Lord's Mansion, Annan comforted the dejected Peterson.

He didn't expect that the stereotype of druids was similar to that of elves... It seemed that there were only a few druids like Da De who were willing to get close to humans.

Revenge the druids by ruthlessly destroying the forest? Annan is not that naive yet...

Forget it, it’s okay if they can bless the forest. Maybe the hunters will have a good harvest in the autumn.

As for Peterson, Annan fulfilled his promise by transferring him to Francois.

"Don't worry, I'm fine."

Annan and the apologetic Da De told her not to worry about the druids anymore, to return to the tree of the other world, and then locked herself in the bedroom.

His forced smile disappeared instantly, and he stood there in despair.

The sunshine outside the window cannot dispel the dullness of the bedroom.

The invincible charm has failed for the second time in a row...

What's going on? I'm losing my ability to charm others?

"Lilith."

As Annan called softly, a hazy Lilith appeared in Annan's bedroom.

"Take me to Succubus Massage Parlor."

Lilith grabbed Annan's hand and took a step forward. Annan instantly appeared outside the Succubus Massage Parlor.

As a specialty of Liberty City, Succubus Massage Parlor has long queues from morning to night. However, as the Lord of Liberty City, the succubus boss Elena received him personally.

Led into the room, Elena's cheeks flushed and she began to prepare essential oils, robes, and spray perfume——

"No need to prepare, I'm here to ask a question..."

"Psychological enlightenment?"

Elena was a little disappointed, but she still came over and sat next to Annan: "I've almost saved up 100 gold again..."

Annan suspected that all the money she earned except rent was given to herself.

The pink room lit by candlelight exudes an ambiguous atmosphere. Annan felt that the room was a little stuffy, so he stood up and opened the window to let the sunlight shine into the room. Then he sat back and told the succubus about the druid.

"Prejudice is scarier than charm."

Despite the stereotype of succubus, this abyssal creature that can sense the emotions of life is simply a natural psychiatrist.

"You see a beautiful human girl. You can't help admiring her and want to meet her. But if she turns around and reveals her rat tail, will you still want to get close to her?"

"Would I be more excited?"

Elena realized that she shouldn't use Annan as an example, so she told a story about a knight and a succubus.

Knights who fight with the Knights will meet their beloved women, fall in love and get married. But if that woman is a succubus, everyone will wonder if she has some conspiracy.

The issue comes back to inevitable bias. Investigating the reason, who caused it?

Call it stereotype and prejudice, but to a certain extent, it is an impression consistent with most people’s perceptions.

Because humans are really destroying the forest, the druids don't want to come into contact with humans. There are not no humans who protect forests, but they are very few...

To a certain extent, Annan is actually bearing the price for the human group.

How to eliminate prejudice.

Magic image? newspaper? Journal?

These do work, but druids won't read them...

Annan couldn't help but feel discouraged. If stereotypes were so easy to eradicate, the races in this world would not be so distinct.

No longer talking about this heavy topic, Annan turned to ask: "How do you make money so fast?"

"Customers line up every day, and technicians have to pay after they finish..."

"Wait...you said the technician pays?"

The succubus boss said confidently: "If they come to my shop to suck the essence, of course they have to pay me."

"Massage parlors are not prohibited..."

"I listen to you and prohibit them from sucking essence in the store, but if you can't stand the customers, you have to take the succubus out..."

Annan was speechless.

Make new laws to stop it?

Forget it, what's the difference between Free City and the Kingdom of Paem?

The image of Prince Aidan emerged, and Annan couldn't help but sigh. They could have become very good friends...

"I'll go find you when I save 100 gold."

"I know...I know..." Annan ran away.

Annan, who returned to the bedroom, was still thinking about this problem, so much so that he fell asleep unknowingly.

Fortunately, he was not captured by the Demon Lord, but once again dreamed of the original four-color halo.

“How do I overcome my prejudice?”

That green halo exudes rhythm: "The smallest germ can destroy a kingdom, hold on to the power of persistence."

The purple halo floated gently: "Emotions are born with the soul, let the world feel happy and satisfied."

The red halo fills the color; "The truly strong will overcome all difficulties in front of them."

The blue halo spreads its brilliance: "The foolish will be laughed at, but the wise will only be worshiped."

Finally, the black ball of light that suddenly appeared drove them away and told Annan: "Destroy all those who are prejudiced against you!"

Annan woke up to the rumbling echo, and the moonlight outside was shining on the peaceful Liberty City.

It was a strange dream...but it did give Annan a firm belief.

Nothing to be discouraged, it’s just prejudice, get over it!

…

"We shouldn't reject him..." The deer man followed his companions deeper into the mountains.

"Selana, you were deceived by humans." The elf druid said solemnly, "They are full of lies, and everything they say is deceiving us."

"I don't think they are that bad..." The bear druid stepped on all fours, "The elves like him."

"Even if the human lord is good now, what about the future? Don't forget the short lifespan of humans. In a few decades, a new lord will suddenly order the deforestation?"

The words of the elf druid silenced the other druids.

This has happened before. The simple druids helped humans maintain wheat fields in exchange for humans not cutting down forests. But with the arrival of new rulers, the druids were caught, the forests were cut down, and the covenant was trampled on——

"There is always a reason for the elven court to regret." The elf druid finally said.

Selana stopped persuading and followed the druids to bless everywhere. Her beautiful figure was like walking in the woods.

It took a whole day for the druids to bless the east side of the forest mountains, and only the west side was left.

After crossing the mountains, the elves following them suddenly stopped in fear.

"What are they talking about?" The elf druid asked Selana.

The deer man focused his attention and whispered, "They said there are bad guys ahead..."

"Bad guys?"

The druids followed the druid who led the way and soon saw scattered figures and large stumps of felled trees near the mountainside.

"Did you see that, Serana!" The elven druid suppressed his anger.

"They don't seem to be the subjects of Free City."

"It doesn't matter." The elven druid shouted, "Druids, drive out these humans who bring pain to the forest!"

The bear druid rushed out first. His huge body and roar that resounded through the forest frightened the woodcutters. They didn't care about their axes and chopped wood, and they rolled and crawled down the mountain.
