Don't confiscate my citizenship

After the first war between the vampires and the demons, the two sides signed the "North-South Treaty". The demons subsequently experienced unprecedented economic prosperity, and the magic industry developed rapidly, promoting engineering construction and the rise of consumerism.

In this era, many demons have gained huge wealth and high status through investment and trade. It is not impossible to become a nouveau riche or to rise to the top in one step.

Just like the emergence of Rocky McCarthy, it will not be so difficult for the demons to guess. It can only be said to be normal. Maybe the next Rocky McCarthy will appear next year.

Of course, the reason why this restaurant quickly became famous is that in addition to McCarthy's extremely deep magical connections in Necalis and his seeming friendship with many ministers, there is also a unique limited-edition dish called Earl's Blood.

It was a bright red pudding that was said to have magical powers that could make demons addicted.

In the demon world, chefs who can make food with magical effects are no less important than magic craftsmen.

As for the Count's Blood Booster meal, after consuming a certain amount for the first time, it will even permanently increase one's physical strength.

As a result, it gradually became a hard-to-find dish in this restaurant.

Many demons want to replicate McCarthy's success, but they can't find a clue.

"Some demons told me that he had killed many of his own kind."

The sound of conversation brought Lysandra back to reality.

Lysandra suddenly felt a chill, because she knew that these demons were talking about the owner of this palace restaurant, Rocky McCarthy.

She had already followed her old classmate, the blond aristocratic lady Tia, to stand beside the demon men and women. Soon, under the introduction of Miss Tia, she completed the introduction with the surrounding demons.

This is the real aristocratic circle of the royal capital Nekalis. Lisandra can only hesitantly say that she is a descendant of the ancient great demon clan Duke Pukeli, hiding that she actually "sneaked in" because she lives next door. , rather than a genuine distinguished member of this restaurant.

Unlike Lysandra who was timid, the demon noble next to her leaned forward, eager to hear what happened to the owner of the restaurant.

"I don't think that's the case."

The eldest lady Tia said hesitantly,

"It's more likely that he was a spy during the war."

As the cousin of the Demon Realm General Lei Mingqing, she could probably tell that many of the employees in the restaurant had military qualities. She didn't believe it if McCarthy had nothing to do with the Demon Realm Army.

She had explored the restaurant several times before and asked all the demons she knew, but she couldn't get any clues about McCarthy.

This ghostly presence only reminded her of the high-level spies with professional qualities that her cousin had said.

A demon gentleman nodded in agreement, took a breath, and then lowered his tone:

"I heard the demons talk about this. Some demons know him a little bit. He seems to have just returned from the border. He has the emblem of the orc city-state family. Even after the war, he seems to have been lurking in the human and blood kingdoms, all the way. Go into business and find a new way to make a fortune.”

He swore that his gossip was accurate.

"Oh no."

The girl's rebuttal voice drew Lysandra's face to the other side.

"How could he be a spy during the war, because he studied at Purgatory Corridor College during the war. I heard from many demons that Rocky McCarthy studied at the cruel and prestigious school at Purgatory Corridor College."

She added excitedly, seeing that the young nobles were beginning to believe her.

"But I also believe that sometimes you can tell it from the expressions of the employees in this restaurant inadvertently. I bet that he must have killed many demons."

She narrowed her eyes and shuddered just by gossiping to herself.

Lysandra also trembled involuntarily.

As they chatted, all the surrounding demons couldn't help but use their eyes in their spare time, trying to find the figure of the rumored owner of the restaurant, Rocky McCarthy, in the splendid palace.

However, there were still no clues.

He might be downstairs, he might be upstairs, he might be any demon they saw.

No one knows what kind of demon race he is, whether he is young or old, handsome or mediocre.

Even those demons who usually talked about everything had to whisper in a low voice when they mentioned McCarthy in the restaurant, making them believe in each other how mysterious it was surrounding this demon.

"No matter what, we should be able to see McCarthy's true face in the palace at the royal ceremony in a week's time."

Finally, a nobleman said this with regret.

According to McCarthy's current connections in the capital city of Naikalis, there is a high probability that he will be invited.

Many of the celebrities gathered here were able to attend, and it was unlikely that McCarthy, who hosted them all, would not be able to attend.

Perhaps that will be Rocky McCarthy's first public appearance.

Before that, maybe he was in this palace, just walking past you, but you couldn't even notice him.

"The premise is that Mr. McCarthy is willing to participate. Maybe for him, a mere princess is nothing worth seeing."

The blonde aristocratic lady Tia spread her hands,

"Lissandra, how beautiful is the princess? Can she seduce McCarthy?"

She looked at the little follower Lysandra and asked.

"Well, it's just beautiful..."

Lysandra replied.

She understood what Tia meant. After all, a princess wanted to be ranked, not to be ranked, and to be powerful but not powerful. As a caged bird with the nature of a work of art, the only thing that might be attractive to men was her appearance.

"But a demon like McCarthy has never seen a female demon before. It's impossible for him to make a special trip just to see the princess's face. The princess is not so beautiful."

When Lissandra fell silent, a demon next to her quickly retorted.

The only ones who can take away the princess are the big demons.

And McCarthy is obviously not a big demon.

The rest of the demons were witnesses, participating in the rare lively scene. At most, they could only get a glimpse of the princess's current appearance.

"really……"

Lysandra thought for a moment and could only nod.

If McCarthy is really a lustful person who covets the beauty of the princess, it will disillusion all the demons who are curious about him.

After ten minutes of standing and communicating on the second floor of the restaurant, the first dinner was almost over.

Of course there is a second show after midnight.

Tia invited Lissandra to go to the dining table in the open-air garden on the second floor, where the same young demons were sitting at the same table.

The moon climbed higher, and a row of silver sand hung in the endless night sky over the bay. The sound of the harp tinkled sweetly, as if it could let the midsummer breeze flow with it.

It's more spacious here, and you can clearly see how big McCarthy's manor is. The sofas on both sides of the dining table are more comfortable to sit on. The smell of wine is not as strong as indoors, making Lisandra feel like she can breathe easier. .

Even outside, you can hear the sound of musical opera being performed in the restaurant like a show. The champagne is foaming in the slender glass, and is delivered by the waiter and handed to each guest, making a crisp clinking sound.

The next table was not so lively. There was only a demon with pure white horns and lines.

Farther away, the same laughter continued.

"Tomorrow happens to be the day when the royal family meets with Count Sergio, the special envoy of the Blood Tribe. Don't miss it by sleeping too late today."

The sound of conversation echoed in the wide open square on the second floor.

The demons who can come to this restaurant basically know what the guests at the distant tables are discussing.

The vampire envoy who arrived in the Demon Realm early seemed to be because a Vampire Earl had disappeared near the Demon Realm a few days ago.

The vampires highly suspected that demons violated the North-South Agreement and attacked the count.

Almost all the demons who have the strength to subdue the vampire count are now gathered in the demon city of Naikalis.

Now the vampire investigation leader Count Sergio is going to use magic in the royal capital of Nekalis to thoroughly investigate the clues about the murderer.

No matter where the missing count is hidden and how many layers of sealing he has, as long as he is a demon who has been stained with the blood of the vampires recently, he will be sensed by the vampire detective Count Sergio.

"Assuming that the person who harmed the Blood Count is a powerful demon, once he is accused, it may cause a serious diplomatic crisis."

The demon at Lysandra's table sighed.

When she heard this, she nodded silently like a little transparent person.

For matters of this level, Count Sergio, the special envoy of the Blood Tribe, was visiting the king of the demon world, that is, the princess. As a minister, Lord Fallen was only protecting the safety of the princess.

Qing Luo also cleverly pushed this trouble onto the princess, who acted as a shield.

Because if it is handled by the real person in charge, Qing Luo, the problem will become more troublesome.

The nobles at the same table maintained a relatively dignified posture, eagerly discussing major events in the demon world, consciously representing the family, and being quite friendly to Lisandra who was also able to come here.

At this time, Lysandra also began to feel elated.

She had drank two large glasses of wine, and the scene in front of her gradually became hazy.

But she was also worried that if she overslept tomorrow, it would be bad to be late.

Perhaps it was precisely because of this kind of event tonight that the restaurant would close late that McCarthy, as a neighbor, invited her over as compensation.

"If the vampire princess can handle it well tomorrow, her prestige may become quite powerful, but if she cannot handle it well, she will successfully prove that she is a useless vase."

The blond noble lady Tia mentioned the princess again,

"Actually, everyone who understands understands that most of the demons have no expectations for her tomorrow. If she is worthy of this position, Qing Luo will not push her in front to block the vampire envoy. "

Other demons also agreed.

Lysandra tightened her grip on the half-full glass of wine.

This is already the third time.

Although it is true.

But Lysandra always felt that Miss Tia was very hostile to the princess.

In terms of noble bloodline, Tia can't compare to the princess.

"I think the princess is an excellent demon."

Lysandra drooped her head and muttered word by word,

"Your cousin Lei Mingqing has to be chosen by the princess before he can win. Although you say she is not worthy, she can indeed choose. Princess, she is qualified to choose, but you are not qualified to choose. Your cousin."

Perhaps she was getting drunk and just told the truth. This time she didn't want to echo Tia's smile.

The atmosphere became a little awkward for a while.

The sofa next to the table fell silent for a moment.

They all stared at Lysandra and Tia in surprise.

But Miss Tia didn’t say much.

She tried hard to maintain the dignity and calmness that belonged to the nobility.

But with the subtle effect of alcohol, the emotions that were buried deep in her heart seemed to be difficult to conceal, and her eyes began to become misty.

She gradually grabbed the hem of her skirt with one hand and shed tears.

Lisandra was stunned by this reaction.

The other demons around know it.

Because Tia just wants Lei Mingqing to lose and doesn't want her cousin to be taken away by a woman she has never met.

And Lisandra's words were too offensive for Tia.

"what can I do."

Tia's tears slid down her perfect face one drop after another. Her hands trembled slightly, and the wine in the glass swayed slightly.

Although she was still beautiful at this moment, her fragility and grievance seemed extremely fragile in this silent night.

She knew that their family needed a princess, and she also knew that she really didn't want her cousin to win, but she couldn't tell her cousin, otherwise it would only appear that she was ignorant and drag down their family and her cousin.

"I, I, I didn't mean that. I don't know that you actually..."

Lysandra was at a loss for a moment.

She hadn't seen her old classmate Tia for many years, but she didn't know that Tia was actually jealous of the princess because she liked her cousin Lei Mingqing.

She knew how to deal with demons like the princess, who were weak on the outside but strong on the inside, but when she suddenly faced a woman like Tia, who was tough on the outside but fragile on the inside, she felt like nothing she said was appropriate.

Just when Lysandra panicked.

"Miss, do you need help?"

A calm and gentle voice sounded behind them.

There was still the same male devil at the table next to them. His horns seemed to be white jade-like exoskeletons, glowing faintly.

In the demon world, there are very few demons with light attributes, or demons as beautiful as him, especially with his emerald green eyes.

After looking carefully, I discovered that there was a short girl sitting next to him, sleeping on his arm.

So he remained motionless.

Now that the little girl was asleep, he finally gently placed her on the sofa and let her lie down on the sofa to sleep peacefully.
