As the sun dipped below the horizon, the clouds outside gradually transformed into hues of orange and red, casting a warm glow onto the walls of the room. {Write here to remind readers about our domain name}

Lanchi gazed out the window, his mind drifting back to his family's Wilford Trading Company.

I was originally going to say something sentimental.

Maybe I'll just forget it.

The setting sun is beautiful beyond compare.

The setting sun is infinitely beautiful.

"Get some rest."

Lanche shifted his gaze from the window back to his father.

He felt that his father could not return to the Krell Empire.

After all, the Blood Clan and the Resurrection Church should be uniting to put a warrant out for Lan Qi very soon.

But Noah apparently still doesn't know about the significant breakthrough Ranch achieved on this Shadow World trip.

It's better to tell father this good news later.

Lance is a little worried that Noah's excitement will keep him up all night.

From now on, persuade your father to stay in the Nan Wan Tina region. At least there's a national defense barrier, and Hans, the old housekeeper at home, is very strong.

"Hmm."

Hearing what Lance had said, Noel knew it was time for Lance to go too.

"These days I decided to stay at the medical center for a few days, have a comprehensive check-up and then go back."

Noe just heard from the little reporter that Lance is now a member of the student council and always does things that are good for the school.

He also wanted to see how Lanchi usually mediated conflicts between students.

If Lan Chi had also learned how to behave himself, then he would have complete peace of mind.

Besides, Noel is also curious about Lance's social situation at school.

With Huberlian upbringing, she must come from a good family. Noé was not worried at all.

If all of Ranch's other friends were as good a student as Huberly, that would be great.

……

After confirming that Old Man was doing well, Lance bid him farewell for now.

As soon as he stepped out of the ward, Lance saw Huberlian leaning against the wall in the corridor, his head bowed and looking deeply troubled.

"Hubrian..."

Lanche greeted her softly.

"Huh"

Heublin looked up at him, then down again, clearly still embarrassed by what Old Rancid had just said.

“Do you know why my father would say that kind of thing”

Ranch tilted his head slightly to observe Huberlyan's expression, then as if understanding, asked.

Why...

She mumbled, lowering her head and glancing at Lanci.

As expected, in the eyes of people, the demon race is ultimately an alien species. Even the fact that their father married their mother became a hurdle they couldn't overcome and was used as a laughingstock.

"Because you didn't hear what he said afterward, he said, 'Could it be that this young girl could possibly be the daughter of Duke Mihaela She's so gentle and kind; there isn't a shred of demon blood in her at all.'"

Lanche mimicked Noel's tone and said with a smile.

"You're at it again."

Hughbert knew that Lance always paraphrased what others said in a different way.

This time it is really the original sentence.

Ranch's emerald eyes were naturally innocent.

"...."

Hughley stared at Lancy, silent for a moment.

Then I believe you.

She finally spoke.

Only Lance would be so kind to the demon race.

"Shall we Our itinerary for today isn't over yet. I need to take you somewhere later, that's the real highlight of today."

Even Lynch's expression became a little serious as he said this.

"Well."

Hubert was also nervous. She was finally going to meet Lance's teacher, the terrifying, beautiful, and mysterious Miss Tatta.

……

First, Lance and Huberlian finished dinner together at school.

Afterwards, the two returned to the sage's dormitory building first.

They were sitting and chatting on a circle of wooden benches under a large tree, not far from the dormitory building's entrance.

Around six o'clock, the deputy director Asana, who had agreed on a time with them, arrived at the dormitory building.

Asna looked tired but satisfied, clearly having just finished her student union work.

"Long time no see."

"No, we're the ones who are bothering you, Asuna-san."

The two people greeted her briefly and then followed Asana upstairs, walking down a long corridor until Asana returned to her dormitory and took out a box of homemade snacks.

This box is my new creation. The left side is matcha cookie flavor and the right side is mango cheese flavor. I wonder which one Miss Tata would like better.

Asana pointed at the carefully packaged cardboard box in her hand and said.

"Thank you, Asna senior sister."

Lancy thought about asking Talya for help, maybe it would be better to bring a gift.

Generally, food available for purchase outside is difficult to make Tallia feel special.

And Asuna was especially good at cooking, she would always bring some snacks to the student council for them to eat, and every time the three of them praised her highly.

Lanchi thought Asuna's skills would be to Tallia's liking, but she was previously embarrassed to ask Asuna for so many sweets.

Dean Loren has always held Asuna in high regard, but it's a shame that she only dedicates a small portion of her time to magic. The rest is spent on her hobbies and managing student council affairs.

Compared to becoming an excellent mage, she would rather be an excellent chef.

It can only be said that Dean Loren has attracted some geniuses, but his happy education method truly achieves such results. He has never forced students to become what they don't want to be.

Therefore, Lorenz also received much outside scrutiny, and the academic community generally believed that the Academy of Sages had been managed increasingly poorly under his leadership in recent years.

But it doesn't matter.

The Ranch will prove to Dean Loren that he is an excellent dean!

"If she's a foodie, just ask her for some feedback."

Aishana smiled and said.

At first, when her cooking was terrible, the head also told her it was delicious. After a long time, she realized that the head had been lying to her.

After that, she became very concerned about what people with good taste in food thought of her.

If Lanchi said that Ms. Tata liked her pastries and gave some advice, she would be very happy.

"No problem!"

Ranch is certain that Talia wouldn't be stingy with words when it comes to food; she would definitely have some comments if her stomach was satisfied.

……

After bidding farewell to Asuna, Lance and Hubrian set off on their journey outside the school.

The lights came on, outlining the ancient building in more detail, as if giving life to the stone walls and sculptures.

In the night, Ictereus Academy is like a tranquil island, filled with an atmosphere of peace and harmony.

Lanche and Huberly strolled along the wide sidewalk, walking toward the dim streetlights. Behind them stood the imposing bell tower, growing increasingly distant in the twilight, its solemn grandeur even more pronounced in the darkness.

"Lance, when I meet Miss Tata, what should I pay attention to"

Hubberley asked, a little nervously.

She had heard that Ranchi's teacher was a rather cold person.

Under her strict supervision, even Lance could be honest.

This is something Hubleyan couldn't even imagine.

Lan Qi always said that if he were a kitten, Tata would be a tigress, and it was perfectly normal for him to be afraid of her.

"Huperlian, you just need to remember two things: never lie to her, and absolutely do not let her know that I told you this."

Randy held out his finger and said.

However, he wasn't too worried because Huberlians never lied to their own people.

Understood.

Huperly nodded seriously.

Although Ms. Tata that Lanchi spoke of was quite terrifying.

But since Lance said she doesn't discriminate against demons, she shouldn't be a bad person. Just don't expect her to be too kind to you.
