Don't confiscate my citizenship

Chapter 8 Thalia finds it difficult for humans to understand

In the sky of the border city-state, a few stars still shone faintly, as if they were poems that were about to disappear in the night sky.

Until the dawn of the morning came quietly, a faint blush appeared on the horizon, giving the Lanci family's mansion a hazy color.

In this quiet moment, Lan Qi's bedroom seemed particularly peaceful. Light filtered in through the light window screens, as if wisps of pure elves were dancing.

However, Lan Qi has woken up.

He moved his body, pushed the quilt aside, hung his feet, and placed them gently on the carpet, feeling the soft touch under his feet.

"Why did I dream that I was in the underworld? The King of Hell was on a long vacation, and I signed the book of life and death on my behalf..."

He rubbed his eyes, recalled his dream, and murmured to himself,

"By the way, the borrowed code can be returned."

After stretching hard, a feeling of relaxation spread throughout his body. Lan Qi straightened his back and stood up from the bed.

After washing, he did not go downstairs to eat today's breakfast immediately.

Instead, he opened the curtains next to the desk and bathed in the warmth of the morning and the rising sun.

The breeze caressed the leaves outside the window, and birds were chirping on the treetops not far away.

A string of crisp notes drifted into Lan Qi's bedroom along the window sill, permeating the entire pleasant morning light.

Two weeks have passed since I borrowed the codex on the table from the border library.

These days, there are more and more books on his desk.

In addition to the code of law, he also asked the trustee to buy him several basic books that were directly sold by the Card Makers Association in this city-state.

The learning and use of magic in this world is obscure and difficult to understand, just like mathematics in the doctoral field. If you can't learn it, you just can't learn it.

Lan Qi was probably convinced that he did not have the talent to become a "traditional mage who could make good use of magic by himself."

But the good thing about this world is that everyone can use magic through "magic cards".

However, magic cards that can be bound to souls have carrying limitations.

Therefore, they will not affect the specialness of the combat class, but will only make the strong stronger.

Ordinary people can also use various convenient small life magic through magic cards.

It is precisely because of this that the magic craftsman who can make magic cards is a very popular profession!

Compared with making other types of magic props, card making requires not only a thorough understanding of the principles of magic engineering, but also extremely high creativity and brainpower, as well as the development of extremely high drawing skills.

Fortunately for Lan Qi, the knowledge related to magic engineering, such as the production of magic props and the principles of magic equipment, was surprisingly simple for him to read, and he could understand it quickly even at a glance.

"Of course, it's also possible that the textbook compilers are of a higher standard."

Lan Qi looked at the pile of reference books on the desk and sighed.

What a coincidence is that these textbooks are all written by the same author:

"Fundamentals of Magical Engineering in the Kingdom of Hutton, Seventh Edition - by Borao"

"Common Misunderstandings in the Production of First-Order Magic Cards - by Borao"

"Ethical Code of Ethics for Card Makers - by Paulo"

People who heard from the Card Creators Association said that Professor Borao was the instructor of the Magic Engineering Institute of Icerita Academy.

It's a pity that Professor Pollao does not take students.

Otherwise, Lan Qi would have wanted to work hard for a hundred days and apply for the Magic Academy.

However, compared to the Magic Academy, which has complicated and arduous academic studies and special tutors, he still prefers the free and relaxed curriculum structure of the Sage Academy and the Knight Academy: there are few required courses and many elective courses. He only needs to complete all the required courses and take them concurrently. You can graduate if you have enough credits.

As for those Magic Engineering Academy courses that suit you, you can just add them to your course schedule as elective subjects.

This is the conclusion Lanqi came to after carefully studying the information about Icerita Academy.

"Okay, after studying the theory, it's time to experiment with making magic cards."

Lan Qi felt that the so-called "mana" consumed by drawing Talia's portrait a few days ago should have been almost recovered by now.

Today you can go to the Card Makers Association to rent a card making workshop and try to practice.

as well as.

Since he has to leave the city-state and go to the royal capital in two and a half months.

Thalia's affairs also need to be arranged.

Although she is a demon, she and he need each other.

Perhaps, the two of them can become good trading partners in the future.

Lan Qi looked out the window.

Soon, his eyes found a gray figure outside his yard.

On the street corner where the sun has not yet reached, a girl stands dignifiedly like a vivid artwork. Her figure is like fine porcelain, delicate and soft.

In the breeze, the dark gray cloak covering Thalia's body fluttered gently, adding a bit of mystery.

In this quiet moment, she seemed to blend into the painting with the surrounding environment, and it seemed as if her presence was the only thing in the painting.

Lan Qi held her chin and looked at the demon princess who was perfectly disguised as a human from a distance.

"It's a pity that he is too old, at least a few hundred years old."

he sighed.

Although among the demons, Thalia is also a young demon.

But according to the human concept of age, it seems right to call her an old woman.

certainly.

Lan Qi didn't know what the consequences would be if he really called Talia an old woman.

far away.

As if aware of Lan Qi's gaze, Talia also glanced in the direction of the second floor of the mansion.

"Good morning."

After meeting their gazes, Lan Qi smiled and waved gently towards Thalia in the distance.

Thalia ignored him.

Her gray hair slid over her shoulders like silk, falling quietly on her cloak, and her eyes looked forward indifferently.

She just wanted to identify any movement that might pose a threat to the residents of this mansion.

Since it was Lan Qi himself and not someone else who would threaten Lan Qi, she had no intention of paying any more attention to it.

It's like she only cares about doing her job - protecting her employer.

regardless of the employer itself.

but……

She didn't know why, but she always felt that the inner activities of the young man just now were extremely active.

And he seemed to be thinking about some pretty damn things.

But Talia couldn't tell where her intuition came from, or what was going on in the boy's mind.

No matter how you look at it.

He was just saying hello in a friendly way.

Maybe it's an illusion.

After all, ever since the demon kingdom fell... I have begun to hate humans.

Even for a docile and harmless human like Lan Qi, she would occasionally have delusions about him, suspecting that he might be a perfectly disguised guy with an extremely bad personality.

But his lie detection skills and his own observations proved that this human being had absolutely excellent character.

"well."

Thalia sighed softly.

I thought that after wandering in the human country for so many years, I had some understanding of human beings.

But now it seems that I want to endure the humiliation and perfectly integrate into human society in order to seek opportunities for national restoration.

A lot of work still needs to be done.
