Don't confiscate my citizenship

The scenery outside the car window is constantly changing.

They were all very familiar with Icerita in the car in winter.

Even in the coldest two or three weeks, the temperature is not too low, the winter is warm and the summer is cool, and the humidity is just right. This is why Icerita is known as one of the most livable cities in the southern continent.

For the big demons such as Ifatia and Thalia, this southern continent city full of order and harmony was a novelty for them when they first arrived.

From the ancient Icerite Central Station and St. Brian's Cathedral, the stronghold of the Church of the Fates, to the modern magic glass-walled buildings, including Hutton Pedestrian Square, home to the Cardmakers' Guild, and Erica, where scholars gather Magic Towers and buildings of various styles add a lot of color to the city of Ikerita.

"Sister, have you ever been to the top floor of Erica's Magic Tower? There is a workshop there where you can customize and process your own magical snacks."

"But doesn't it require a membership card for Magic Tower advanced registration?"

"We have it at home. When I go back and get it, we can go."

Ifatiya was planning where to go with Thalia along the way.

Although Iphatia, who came to Icerite earlier, is more like a local than Thalia, Iphatia has not returned to Icerite for more than ten years after all, and Thalia has mainly lived in Icerite in the past two years. Icerita, the two sisters walked together, each finding unfamiliar places and playing with each other.

"I haven't spent any money to come to Icerita. The human country is really a great place."

Ifatiya took out their family's Southern Continent Federation Pass credit card and said that her sister didn't have to think about spending with her.

"Well."

Thalia wanted to say something, but after thinking about it, it seemed that she was not qualified to say anything to Epatiya.

The point where she is better than Epatia is that she has earned some remuneration through labor, while Epatia just shows up and defeats the Duke.

But in the final analysis, all she earned was Lan Qi's money. If Lan Qi hadn't given her the opportunity, she would still be a gangster unable to find a job.

At this time, Thalia noticed that Milaya in the front row turned back and looked at Lanqi.

There was a look of mutual understanding in the two people's eyes, and they even felt a little sympathy for each other. If it wasn't difficult to talk to each other in person, they might have started to exchange their experiences of being swindled.

"Are you trying to say...that there is a reason why the demon clan destroyed the country?"

Although Talia couldn't quite understand Milaya's thoughts, she could understand Lanqi's damn micro-expression.

Lan Qi seems to have finally found a daily mission teammate on the same frequency.

"No, no."

Mi Gaiya quickly waved her hand politely and stopped looking back to flirt with Lan Qi.

"Sister, have you been to the Golden Bee Playground? The construction of the Golden Bee Playground just started when I left Ikerita. It should be built now, right? Can you take me to play?"

Epatia was still holding Thalia's arm and asking her endless questions.

"Been there, it was quite fun."

Talia won a lot of Golden Bee coins at the Golden Bee amusement park last time, and she couldn't even finish her late night snack. She kept them all at Cat Boss's restaurant, so she can still have fun at the amusement park next time.

Moreover, she also got the golden bee playground annual card reward in the trial of the Corridor Academy, which has not expired yet. It would be a pity not to spend all the golden bee coins, so she has to ask Lan Qi for help when she has time. She handles it.

"Wow, I want to feed my sister a midnight snack too."

Ifatiya was eager to give it a try.

"How do you know that Lan Qi fed me a midnight snack? No, I mean, you used the word 'also' very unreasonably, and not to mention that I don't need anyone else to feed me."

Thalia immediately retorted and pointed out the problem.

"Ah? Didn't you hold me and feed me during your first date in Huadu? Didn't you feed me supper?"

Epatia covered her mouth in surprise.

"Yifa, be careful I hit you! Have you forgotten who fed you when you were a child?"

Thalia was so angry that she wanted to grab Epatia beside her.

"No! Sister!"

They were chatting and fussing in the back seat.

Unknowingly, the sun rose higher and higher.

The vehicle they were traveling in passed near the Duke's Palace in the southern district of Ikerita and gradually began to slow down.

In a quiet neighborhood, there is a magnificent ducal mansion.

When you slowly drive into the gate of this extraordinary manor, you will see a straight and neat private driveway, and the asphalt road is immaculately maintained.

Both sides of the road are lined with neat plane trees, with dense crowns and spherical hedges trimmed between the trees, decorating the driveway like strings of emerald beads.

In the center of the huge circular fountain square at the end of the driveway, a marble goddess statue holds a light. Clear spring water pours down from the lamp holder, reflecting colorful lights under natural light.

The fountain is surrounded by gorgeous rose beds, emitting bursts of fragrance.

Further ahead, the majestic three-story Duke's Mansion rises from the ground, with gleaming milky white stone exterior walls, neatly arranged floor-to-ceiling windows, exquisite carvings on the window frames and balcony railings, and two majestic white jade stone lions in front of the mansion. Guarding the left and right, the golden paint of the coat of arms of the Duke of Aransal's family on the gate sparkled in the daytime.

"arrive."

The car slowly stopped at the entrance of the mansion. Hans opened the door for the Duke, and the Duke, his wife and others got out of the car.

"My home hasn't changed after all these years!"

Ifatiya raised her hand to block the dazzling sunlight and looked at her Duke's Mansion.

"Listen to Hyperion, the Duke even left the piano to you for more than ten years, and you won't be able to exchange it for a thousand dollars."

Lan Qi told Ifatiya.

At first, he was still afraid that Lan Fu would destroy the piano, so he heard the story from Hyperion.

"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuu"

Ifatiya's smile quickly turned to tears.

"Let's go inside first."

Thalia patted her whimpering sister on the back.

Soon they climbed up the flawless white steps. Hans, the housekeeper of the mansion, was waiting at the door one step ahead, bowing his head.

"Welcome back, everyone."

Pushing open the heavy oak door, a crystal chandelier made by ancient Ikerite craftsmen hangs from the six-meter-high ceiling, and the refraction of the crystal facets illuminates the magnificent foyer.

The magnificent staircase spirals up to the second floor.

"Have you started preparing lunch?"

Duke Milaya asked Hans while greeting the attendants and maids who had been waiting in the mansion for a long time.

"certainly."

Butler Hans replied respectfully.

He had worked at the Wilfort house for a long time and already knew that if Miss Tata was coming, lunch would be ready in the morning.

"Pfft."

Lan Qi couldn't help but chuckle.

He is always good at finding some happy details in life.

"Lanlan..."

Thalia wanted to attack Lanqi but stopped.

At her sister's house, she was not very good at executing Lan Qi on the spot, as it might have seemed a bit rude.

"Is Hyperion at home?"

Epatia asked the maid at home.

"Yes, Lady Ifatiya."

The maid responded with great respect, treating Epatia like a mother.

Thalia was stunned when she noticed the maid.

"Francine, why are you here?"

Thalia remembered that this was the hired maid in the Wilford family who had the best relationship with Lanci and had a good relationship with her. Now that Hans has returned to Alan Sal's house, Francine also came with him.

"Miss Tata, I was originally a maid adopted by the Alan Sal family. Later, I was taken to the Wilfort family by Mr. Hans. Now that the Alan Sal family is short of manpower, I naturally came back to work."

Francine saluted Thalia and said,

"But don't worry. Ever since the business scale of the Wilfort family has been reduced, the number of servants hired by the family has been in surplus. Although it is not impossible to hire us, we often have nothing to do when we stay at the Wilfort family. If the Wilford family needs me in the future, I can go back at any time."

Francine explained.

She was very surprised when she saw that Master Lanci could paint epic paintings, but she was not too scared. After all, she had seen the Duke's paintings.

"That's it."

Thalia thought for a moment.

She inexplicably felt that returning to the Duke's Mansion was no different from returning to the Wilford family. It would not be inconsistent for the two families to change their names.

"By the way, is Hyperion okay?"

Thalia immediately remembered the point.

She was afraid of sleeping with Huberian, but if she didn't stay with Huberian, she would worry about Huberian catching a cold every day when she lifted the quilt. These days, she was thinking about Huberian's physical condition every day.

"Dr. Antanas came here this morning with Miss Sinola. After the diagnosis, she is basically fine. The lady is just watching the video in the bedroom upstairs."

Francine replied, pointing in the direction of the stairs leading to the second floor.

"call……"

Thalia breathed a sigh of relief.

"What video?"

Lan Qi suddenly seemed to have discovered Hua Dian and asked Francine.

"It seems to be sent from the capital of Paris. Yes, it is an international express sent by Countess Rosalinda some time ago. Now it has finally passed the customs and arrived at the Cat Boss Restaurant. After reading it, Miss Sigrid handed it over to Anta Miss Nass, let Antanas look at it as he pleases, and then Miss Antanas will come and show it to everyone with curiosity and joy."

Francine recalled what she learned and preached to Ranch.

Fortunately, Antanas was very talkative, and he chatted with her non-stop after meeting her, so Francine was able to know so much. "Meow!"

The cat boss quickly jumped from Lan Qi's hand to Ifatiya's side.

When it heard the Huadu video, it felt something was wrong.

Knowing that Sigrid has finished reading, Cat Boss feels even worse!

It looked up at Ranchi and Tata, who had been silent since just now.

I saw that Lan Qi and Talia began to sweat on their foreheads, and their expressions became stiff.

Sigrid was definitely trying to trick them before giving the video to Antanas.

"Do you know the content of the video?"

Francine had never seen Master Ranch and Miss Tata so in sync.

"Excuse me, where is Hyperion's room?"

Lan Qi came to his senses and asked Francine hurriedly.

"Well, at the end of the corridor on the second floor, the largest bedroom is hers. The door is inlaid with amber crystal."

Francine showed them the way.

"Let's go see Hyperion!"

Lanci and Thalia ran towards the stairs at the same time.

Only a few other people were left standing not far from the foyer.

After a while.

"Isn't that the video that Atio gave to us, oh no, to show to me in Huadu?"

Epatia asked Duke Milaya.

"puff."

Mi Gaiya covered her mouth, almost unable to hold back her laughter.

No need to ask, it must be that video.

His colleague Sigrid was really ruthless, and her first reaction after reading it was to show it to Hyperion.

…

other side.

Corridor on the second floor of the Duke's Palace.

Lanqi and Talia, who were flying towards the door, stopped at the end with tacit understanding and found the bedroom door inlaid with amber crystal.

Knock on that door when they're ready.

Before they even touched the door panel, they heard a sound coming from inside the door.

"Oh, that means the voice of the cat boss at that time was actually Tata's voice? Meow~meow?"

Antanas exclaimed.

After she finished speaking, she tried to meow with her voice, but she couldn't imitate Thalia's pure taste.

"Absolutely."

Sinola's voice was shy, she couldn't stand this scene.

She never thought that Thalia, who was usually dignified in the Demon King's City, would act so boldly.

"You see, they must have discovered the problem at this time, but they held their hands tighter. This conditioned reflex and physiological reaction caused them to have a suspension bridge effect. Then holding each other and feeding each other was also a way of comforting each other. process."

Hyperion seemed to have become more optimistic. She was using the remote control to analyze frame by frame what Lanqi and Talia were talking about in the picture, and why they were hugging each other to eat at that time.

The three of them in the room now seemed to be conducting a seminar seriously.

Of course this is more likely to be a more advanced form of execution.

"..."

Lan Qi and Talia's faces were already red at the door, and their trembling hands could not touch the door panel, as if the door panel was hot to the touch.

At this time, the big demon inside the door seemed to have noticed the movement outside the door.

Antanas quickly stopped the urge to speak, ran over and opened the door.

"Is it Miss Francine?"

Antanas was ready to accept the snacks from Francine.

But when she opened the door, she only saw Ranchi and Thalia.

Antanas immediately took a breath, pretending that she was also a maid of the Duke's family, and stood waiting respectfully by the door, saying nothing.

Sinora, who was lying on the bed watching, also quickly closed her eyes, and then sat elegantly on the edge of the bed, pretending to be as elegant as usual.

The situation became extremely awkward.

In the dim room with the curtains drawn, only the projected light occasionally illuminated their figures and faces.

When Antanas and Sinora did not dare to speak, the time in Hyperion's bedroom seemed to be unable to flow, and it was frozen for a long time in the mutual torture and suffering of Lanqi and Thalia.

"Lanqi, Tata, you are back from Huadu."

Hyperion opened her lips slightly and looked at Lanchi and Thalia who had arrived in Icerita.

Only she is the most at ease.

"..."

Lanci and Talia were both guilty and speechless.

The attributive "from Huadu" specially added by Huberian has a special meaning.

"How was Huadu? Did you have fun?"

Hyperion continued to ask.

"..."

Lan Qi and Tata felt like they were being tortured, unable to tell that they were being held and fed again.

Hyperion observed the appearance of the two people with great interest. She put down the remote control and let the scene of their date play in the room, and walked up to Lanci's Thalia.

"Tata, your meow is really cute. I didn't even realize it wasn't Boss Cat at the time."

Hyperion's amber eyes were sometimes tinged with deep purple crystal light as she preached in Thalia's ear.

"Huberlian, I was wrong."

As if Thalia finally broke through her defense, she grabbed Hyperion's arms and said to her,

"Don't watch this video again. Don't watch it again in the future. Please, you can do anything you want me to do."

Thalia wanted to hug Hyperion but didn't dare to do so without permission.

Although she and Hyperion had already spoken frankly, the scenes of that day were personally reviewed by Hyperion, and Talia felt that she could no longer face Hyperion and her friends at this moment.

It’s like she has been proficient in stealing Lan Qi a long time ago, which is really strange!

"Anything is okay?"

Hyperion asked, holding Lanci's hand in front of Thalia.

"yes……"

Thalia could only lower her head and murmur.

"Forget it, I won't tease you anymore."

With her other hand against the wall, Hyperion opened the automatic curtains in the bedroom with a button. As the sun shone into the bedroom, the whole room became brighter. The purple shadow in Hyperion's eyes faded, turning amber. Still as clear as ever, just with a little sly smile.

In fact, she had already thought about it, and she, Sigrid and Thalia had reached a consensus, which was why she was able to hold a movie viewing party here for Antanas and Sinora today.

"I'll take Lan Qi away today and tell Yifa's mother that we won't be back for lunch at noon!"

Hyperion took Lan Qi's hand and ran out, taking Lan Qi away from the room just like the day when the "cute enough to want to eat you accident" happened, and it seemed like she had stolen Lan Qi away by force. .

"..."

Thalia covered her face with her hands. Now that she was gradually waking up, her mind was still thinking about the ridiculous things she had done.

When Lan Qi could feel the death of society, she even felt that she could no longer stay in this world.

Fortunately, Hyperion has now separated Lan Qi from her, and the awkwardness between the three of them is better.

"..."

Antanas looked at the room inside the door, and then at the two people disappearing on the side of the corridor.

Sure enough, she had not misjudged Talia Lanci and Hyperion. When the three of them get together, they will become twisted!

Antanas couldn't help but clench his fists.

She looked at her best friend Talia, and couldn't help but feel that this Talia, whose face was red with shame, was more attractive than the expressionless and dignified Princess Talia in the demon world!

The shocking hug could not satisfy her.

The twisting of the twist could not stop her.

I hope Lan will not let her down.

After a long time.

"I'll go find Ifa. I haven't seen her for a few days."

Sinora coughed lightly, sat up from the bed, and quietly left Hyperion's room.

"Uh, Tata, shall we go downstairs for snacks later?"

Antanas also realized that he seemed to be too excited and ignored Talia's mood.

That's it.

Only Talia and Antanas were left in the empty room.

"Woo, Antanas, I don't want to mess with Lanqi anymore."

Talia walked to Antanas' side like a deflated ball, sat down, and cried to her best friend.
