As the hour hand of the Demon Academy pointed to five o'clock in the morning, time seemed to slow down in an instant, waiting for some kind of transformation to happen.

A little glimmer of dawn slipped delicately and quietly through the window into the botanical garden, spilling through the gaps between the leaves.

Clear light filled the mist, and the entire Demon Shadow World began to rise and dissipate like a bubble.

Ranch finally closed the book in his hand.

In the next second, this ancient book of the Demon Race, which seemed to have been washed by the years, slowly dissolved along with the scene of the Demon Realm Plant Experimental Garden.

In the blink of an eye, Ranch and Huberian found themselves standing in a small, transparent room that looked like they were surrounded by the stars of the eternal night, with only the sparse starlight shining around them, bringing enough light to their eyes to see clearly.

This is a critical space between the real world and the film world.

Lanch could see a crack in the transparent barrier not far away, and from the narrow gap a few quiet wisps of purple swirling light spilled out, it was a small void door.

After a while, as long as you pass it, you should be able to return to this world.

And the settlement of the shadow world seems to have not appeared for a while.

Although the real shadow world will not be as ineffective as the artificial shadow world, Ranch has heard that if there are too many abnormal situations that do not follow the mechanics during the real movie world challenge, it will make the settlement process of the movie world a little longer.

I don't know how much slower I'll be this time.

Ranch smiled and looked up at Huberian, ready to chat with her.

He remembered that Huberian had been talking to him all along, but he had been too preoccupied with the last bit of the book.

Immediately, Ranchi's face was slightly more puzzled.

"Hugh Baien, what's wrong with you?"

Lanch looked at Hubertian's expression and muttered puzzledly,

"Oh yes, is it because that guy said you're a half-blood?"

Ranch was shocked to find out that Huberian was fine before, until the outlaw who was engulfed by the demon said that Huberian was a "half-blood" when he died, and her state became a little wrong.

"Hmm."

Hubertian looked at Ranch's gentle gaze as always, and for some reason, the hanging heart finally let go of half a minute.

Up until this point, she was pretty sure she didn't want to lose Ranch as a friend anyway.

But next.

She never expected it.

"Oh my God, you have demon blood?"

Lan Qi didn't hide the adoration in his eyes at all, staring at her and saying.

I can't fix Huber at once.

It was the first time she had seen someone who had learned of her half-blood demon identity, and what she showed was not disgust, but heartfelt...... Good graces?

"Don't you really hate demons? You've been with a demon all day. ”

Huberian said incredulously.

She had never met a person in the world who had such an affinity towards the demons!

Even her father's attitude towards demons was disgusted at first, and it didn't change until she met her mother.

"Uh......"

Lan Qi stopped talking, holding his chin and thinking for a moment, his eyes seemed to miss the leadership team he had formed in the Purgatory Corridor Academy.

“……”

Huberian was speechless.

Forget it, this guy is completely a demon within a demon, and it wouldn't be surprising if he was a demon affinity.

Hubertian recalls what Lanch did at the Demon Academy.

Finally relieved.

"My mother was a great demon who had fallen from the north, and she fell in love with my father, Duke Miyana Aransar, while pretending to be a civilian girl, and finally gave birth to me."

Huberian lowered her eyes, and there seemed to be a lot of thought in her eyes, and she confessed to Lanch.

Huberian didn't know if his father, Duke Aransar, had found out that his mother was a demon, or if his father had already found out, so he just deliberately pretended not to know.

It wasn't until the birth of her, a half-blood demon baby, that the truth could no longer be hidden, and her mother quietly left the Hutton royal capital shortly after......

Hubertian still remembers the sad expression that her father would often show, and even if he knew that his mother was a demon, his greatest wish was still to recover her.

The Duke of Aransar was also the only one who Huberian had thought would not dislike the demon clan from the bottom of his heart in the Hutton royal capital.

Of course, there may be one more outlier of this kindness.

Lan Qi scratched his head when he heard this.

How does it sound so déjà vu.

Another demon from the north is still a big demon, so it won't be a relative of Taria.

"I feel like the demons I've met are all very good, why don't everyone wait to see the demons......"

Lanch said confusedly.

He felt that the world's malice towards the demons was too heavy, and it was obviously not harmful at all.

“…… Is it possible that you are too kind-hearted. ”

Huber Ann is not good at complaining about Ranchi.

If this rebellious statement just now was said by someone else in the human realm, it might be attacked by a group and scolded as a, but if the speaker was Lanchi, the nature would have changed, because it was true that the demons were as gentle and harmless as a little white rabbit in front of him.

"Alas, that's why I, as a duchess lady, will be disliked in the royal capital of Ixrita. After the war decades ago, everyone was convinced that demons could not coexist with humans, even a half-demon like me, who was only half demonic. ”

Huberian said to Ranch as if she could finally say something that had been pressed in her heart for a long time, but she couldn't find anyone to say.

Lan Qi had just arrived from the southern border to the northern royal capital, which had been invaded by war, and it was only five o'clock in the morning on the second day of school, so he was a little unfamiliar.

In fact, as long as he waits for a few more days on campus and interacts with other people, he should know that Huberian is a half-demon.

At that time, it will naturally be clear that the people of this royal capital are hostile to the demons.

"In other words, the people in this royal capital, even if they know that you have demon blood, still respect you as Miss Duke, right?"

Lan Qi said with a slight smile on the corner of his mouth.

Huberian was stunned when she heard this, and she stared at Ranchi's emerald green and warm eyes.

I didn't know what to say for a while.

She doesn't understand.

Why is it that "as a duchess lady, she was rejected by everyone because of her demon blood".

To Ranch's mouth, a different way of saying it.

It sounds like a lucky thing again.

"You're a ...... man"

Huberian looked at Lan Qi helplessly, with a look of "defeated to you",

"Last time between me and Vivien, I talked like this, so people couldn't take your words."

Although it looks like complaining.

But she still smiled with relief after all, not a fake smile, nor the acting skills she had comprehended in this fourth-order demon shadow world, but a sincere smile that she could show as a person.
