Don't confiscate my citizenship

When the gentle-tempered young man with black hair pressed his hand against the door armrest of Boss Cat's restaurant, a string of bells made a cheerful "ding-ding-ding-ding" sound, as if to welcome his arrival.

The moment he opened the door, fresh fruit-flavored tea rushed to him, mixed with the cold winter air, making people sober and comfortable.

Lan Qi carried a small suitcase and stepped into Boss Cat's restaurant.

Before Lanci started looking around the store, he saw Hyperion and Talia sitting at a table near the entrance on the first floor, waiting for him.

The lazy afternoon sun shone slantly on the wooden table by the window.

Thalia held her chin with one hand and looked out the window, glanced at Lanqi, and then stopped looking at him as usual.

Hyperion held the little black cat in one hand, picked up the suitcase, and came to Lan Qi with a smile on her face.

Outside the window, the wind chimes under the eaves rang again, as if whispering to him, "You are here."

"Lan Qi, should we set off?"

She has never left the royal capital several times since she was a child.

She was still a little nervous about going out so far.

But if you think about it carefully, it seems to be almost the same as the Shadow World.

Shadow World is nothing more than a super long-distance trip that saves you a round trip...

"Well, there's plenty of time."

Lan Qi confirmed the time of their tickets and replied.

After he finished speaking for a while, his eyes moved to the little black cat in Hyperion's hand.

"Are you going to take Boss Cat with you?"

Lan Qi asked in confusion when he saw that Hyperion had no intention of putting down the little black cat.

"The cat boss said he also wants to travel."

Hyperion looked at Cat Boss.

Whether or not you can bring it depends on Lan Qi's opinion.

"Meow! Although I am very weak, I am a genuine seventh-level elf beast!"

Boss Cat’s tail was raised proudly.

The boy and girl embarked on a journey, and it wanted to take a good look!

And the humans it raises are so weird.

Take a look, take another look...

"Well……"

Lan Qi looked distressed after hearing this.

"Lan Qi, Hyperion...have I caused any trouble for you...I can cook for you and take care of you..."

Boss Cat asked timidly in his childish voice.

It takes good care of people.

"No, I'm thinking about which kind of ticket I should give you."

The law-abiding Lanci would never do such a thing as fare evasion.

But he began to wonder whether he should pay Boss Cat a child or adult ticket, or pay for pets, luggage and other checked fees.

It’s really hard to tell which type of seventh-level elf cat it belongs to.

"Why do I feel that you are thinking of something very rude..."

Boss Cat was stunned for a moment, then muttered.

Hyperion shook her head.

This guy is like that.

He was always able to express his most impolite thoughts in the most polite way.

But if you think about it carefully, it would be wonderful to have a chef accompany you when traveling far away.

Previously in the Holy Temple Shadow World, fortunately, the young master's guard brother and sister were very good at cooking. Otherwise, none of them were particularly good at cooking, and the next four days would not have been so good.

And you don’t have to worry too much about the cat owner’s safety.

Although its combat power is extremely weak, its innate magic [Latent Shadow] is a very powerful self-protection skill. It is a composite magic of dark attributes and space attributes. As long as the host does not die, it is almost in no danger.

In this world, it is rare to encounter a creature with the ability to possess space magic for hundreds of years, and there are few records of space magic that has been handed down. Only some races have a chance to draw talents after reaching the sixth level.

"But where is your store?"

Lan Qi wondered how Boss Cat's restaurant was always short of staff. How could it continue to operate normally if the chef was gone?

"Leave it to Asna and Tata! Asna is now my student, and the two of them will run this store well!"

Boss Cat jumped onto Lan Qi's shoulders and said proudly.

"Senior Asuna, that's very reliable."

Since the last time Ranchi and Hyperion asked for Asna's dessert, they came to visit Thalia.

Later Talia gave a very high evaluation.

Asna asked Hyperion to continue bringing new snacks to Talia. After going back and forth, Hyperion took Asna to the Cat Boss Restaurant to communicate with Talia in person. Asna is determined to become a top chef. Na soon became acquainted with food critic Thalia.

Now that Icerite College is on vacation, Asna, as the vice president of the student union, doesn't have much work. During the vacation, she originally planned to focus on studying cooking.

"Do you have a friend named Monast?"

Boss Cat asked again.

"Yes, he is our president."

Lan Qi didn't know how Senior Monast got to know Boss Cat.

"Monast is very stable. He is also a top business student in the Alchemy Institute. He said that he is very grateful to me for taking care of Asna. In the past few months when I have been away, he will also help me and try his best to help me improve the restaurant business. A little bit meow…”

Boss Cat said happily,

"I can't help but fantasize. Maybe when I come back, my sales will increase by 20%!"

"..."

Lan Qi didn't say much after hearing this.

"Then just look forward to it."

I hope it won’t turn into a cat boss bank by then.

It seemed that when he and Hyperion were away, Tata was accompanied by friends most of the time.

Unknowingly, Tata was living more and more like an ordinary person in the capital.

Lan Qi is a little worried that Asna is the chef and Tata is the waitress. One of them likes to cook and the other likes to eat. Then Tata will use the excuse of tasting to eat the ingredients in the store before opening the store. Empty……

"..."

Thalia raised her eyes and glanced at Lanqi, but said nothing.

that's all.

In front of the counter at the door, Lan Qi chatted with the cat owner for a while.

"Goodbye then, Tata."

Lanci and Hyperion stood at the door of the store, waving to Thalia who was sitting not far away.

"goodbye."

Thalia still had the same attitude as before.

"..."

But after she finished speaking, she seemed a little hesitant.

Lan Qi smiled and held the armrest on the door lock without pressing it down for a long time, as if waiting for something.

finally.

Thalia stood up, walked over quickly, and hugged Hyperion.

"Tata?"

Hyperion opened her lips slightly in surprise, and then slowly put her hand on Tata's slender back, closing her eyes with peace of mind, and a slight smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.

"..."

Thalia didn't speak, just stroked Hyperion's hair.

It is said that when a human mother says goodbye to her daughter, she can give her a hug.

But she didn't know what to say at this time.

Without wasting much time, Thalia let go of Hyperion.

"Lanchi, Hyperion, please be safe on the road."

Thalia looked at the two of them and added.

"Well, don't worry Tata."

"good!"

Lanci said to Thalia with a grin.

This old woman is really becoming more and more humane.

He finally opened the door and left the restaurant with Hyperion and the cat boss.

The empty store suddenly became quiet.

"..."

However.

After Lan Qi and Hyperion disappeared, Talia stood there and frowned.

"Old...what..."

Thalia murmured with her lips slightly parted.

"Still can't hear clearly..."

never mind.

It's not far away from mastering the ability to read minds.

She could quickly hear the kid's inner thoughts.

…

The sound of horse hooves echoed through the streets of Icerita, the wheels hummed and rolled, and the hustle and bustle of the city center faded away.

The afternoon sun shines on the gently swaying sightseeing carriage. Lanci and Hyperion will arrive at Icerita Central Station before it gets dark.

Looking from a distance, you can see ripples on the water of the winding canal, reflecting the sunset.

In fact, they have not visited the royal capital of Icerita together.

Now that I feel relaxed, this ancient city full of modern vitality is particularly beautiful.

After leaving Icerita, they will use their prepared new identities.

Hyperion's disguise was the same black hair and dark eyes as her father, Duke Milaya, while Lanqi chose the same light brown hair color as Dean Loren, without changing his own eye color.

As for a pseudonym, Hyperion decided to call her Miriam, borrowing the first syllable of her father's name.

And Lan Qi still followed her naming method, called Rocky, to pay tribute to Dean Loren.

Although Hyperian could see Ranchi's admiration for Loren through this incident, she always felt that it was not a good thing for Ranchi to imitate Loren too much...

"Lan Qi, I will definitely take good care of you."

Hyperion held the little black cat thoughtfully, and finally turned her head to stare at Lan Qi and said seriously.

"You have always taken good care of me. I feel at ease."

Lan Qi leaned back in his chair leisurely, and the sunset scenery of the sky flashed across his eyes quickly.

Hyperion was slightly stunned.

"Of course I will keep an eye on you during the battle. This is what I promised you when I first formed a team with you. But outside of the battle, I will also keep an eye on you and won't let you act recklessly!"

She explained to Lan Qi the multiple meanings of "see" in a clear and logical manner.

To support him, you must not let him act haphazardly, but of course, you must also help him wholeheartedly at critical moments.

"How could I mess up..."

Lan Qi looked at Hyperion and said with a smile.

At this moment, her cheeks and behind her were covered with a sky intertwined with pink and orange, and the autumn water was so radiant that you could catch a glimpse of her brilliance without the need for lights. In her golden hour, time seemed to have stopped for her.

"But...if you think I'm messing around, just remind me."

Lan Qi's eyes returned to the front of the road and continued.

Although his ideals are lofty and firm, he is not a stubborn person. Hyperion is his reliable companion, and of course he will listen to her opinions.

But that's all in the long run.

All we need to know right now is——

Their new journey to the Northern Continent is about to begin!

——

Please give me the monthly tickets at the end of the month and the beginning of the month, and kowtow to the fathers on the evening!

Tomorrow starts a new chapter of the Northern Continent plot, and there should be a lot of new vertical paintings and illustrations released in September. If you have any scenes you want to see, please leave a message. All comments and this chapter say I will see it! In the evening, I started sacrificing my wallet and crazily requesting manuscripts...
