The next day.

The sky in the Demon King City of Nekalis was still a deep blue, and dawn was not far away.

At about five o'clock, the sky outside began to change.

On the side of the bedroom behind the curtains, on the side of the bedroom behind the curtains, on the edge of the bay of Leith Island, Lisandra sat up slowly from her bed, in a small cabin with a creeper-covered façade and beige walls showing out of the verdant greenery.

"Whew."

Her sleepy eyes were slightly confused, and she scratched her messy dark hair.

When she looked at the clock, she rolled out of bed in fright, and began to wash and change her clothes, until she had smoothed out her long hair, and realized that she could get up a little later to-day, and that Mr. McCarthy had promised to take her to the palace.

However, I don't know if Mr. McCarthy will be too busy to send her, so I originally thought that I would get up early at the normal time and prepare for both.

Now I can only pray that Mr. McCarthy is free today.

She straightened her coat, picked up her bag, and hurried out of the hut.

There were a few strange clouds in the sky, which were blown to and fro by the faint morning breeze.

Normally, the sky may have begun to turn blue at five o'clock in July, but today it is particularly dark.

Originally, Lisandra was going to go to the mansion next door to ask how to find Mr. McCarthy quickly, but as soon as she locked the door, she saw an amber magic energy vehicle parked outside her courtyard.

It's still the same familiar face as yesterday, leaning back in the driver's seat, looking at the night sky where the stars have not yet dispersed.

Maybe he came out to determine which part of the local sky in the Demon Realm belonged to him, or maybe he was looking at the faint blue light emitted from the royal palace across the bay.

The moon was still shining on the trees, and the garden of the mansion next door was only five or six o'clock when it was brightly lit again, but the laughter and excitement of last night were long gone.

McCarthy's glow was like petals on his handsome face, and his hair was supple as if it had been trimmed every week.

Lisandra didn't see any evil in him, he just quietly looked across the sea.

I don't know if it's because he doesn't drink a drop of wine, it's completely different from the guests in the palace restaurant yesterday, the more cheerful everyone drinks and laughs, the more solemn he looks.

Lisandra suddenly discovered.

Maybe every morning, McCarthy might be downstairs in the palace, looking at the aurora across the bay, as if trying to catch something, and that end was the pure land he wanted to belong to his heart.

Soon, McCarthy sensed that Lisandra had arrived.

Out of courtesy, McCarthy stepped out of the car and saluted her.

Lisandra also nodded quickly and walked over quickly.

"Well, sir, are you waiting for me?"

Lisandra couldn't help but ask.

"It's just been here for a while, and it seems like a coincidence."

Lanchi looked back, put his hands in his pockets, and smiled.

Lisandra nodded, and sat in the passenger seat in the direction indicated by Ranchi's raised hand.

If it was in normal times, she would most likely be late, but with Mr. McCarthy giving her a ride today, it seems that there is still plenty of time.

She felt that the other party had been waiting for a long time, but she still said that she had just come.

"Shall we change to the Sea Wizard later?"

Lisandra asked him again.

Now she and McCarthy are riding in the streamlined magic vehicle in amber, as beautiful as the princess's eyes, with long and elegant lines, with a coat box, food box and tool box inside, and the layers of windshields reflect the multiple lights and shadows of the street lamp, which is very much in line with her imagination of the rich.

"No, it can be driven directly at sea."

Ranch replied pleasantly.

He expertly pressed the accelerator, and the vehicle began to accelerate along the road towards the sea.

Once again, Lisandra felt the power of money.

She had thought that McCarthy was a legendary demon full of mysteries, but now that impression faded, and now she was more inclined to see him as a generous neighbor.

He's special, but it's not as special as he thinks.

However, this time in the same car, Lisandra gradually realized that there was some embarrassment.

Yesterday, I agreed to let him send him to work.

In fact, their relationship is not so familiar.

At best, it's just a demon who has just met.

And he was taken care of by him, and he asked him to help again.

Now that I'm alone, I feel like I have nothing to say.

"Miss Lisandra, what kind of demon do you think I am?"

As if to notice Lisandra's slightly embarrassed grasp of her handbag, Ranchi was the first to break the silence in the car.

"I think...... You are a very good demon, much kinder than you imagined, and you don't have the shelf of a nobleman. ”

Lisandra could only reply.

"I don't really want you to misunderstand me because of those gossip, there may be a lot of rumors about me lately in Nekaris, but you know, gossip changes a little bit every time it is spread, and in the end it can only be said to have almost nothing to do with the facts."

Ranch held the steering wheel and said to Lisandra.

Lisandra nodded.

Apparently, McCarthy himself had heard all the rumors that were being discussed by the demons around his palace dining room.

"Did you really spy during wartime?"

Lisandra asked curiously.

"You can say that you have been, but it is not what the rumors say."

Ranch admitted.

"That'...... Did you attend the Purgatory Cloister Academy? ”

Lisandra didn't expect McCarthy to admit it, and continued to ask with some interest.

These things may be of interest to the princess.

After all, the princess was a student of the Purgatory Corridor Academy in the first place, although she finally dropped out of school and fled to the human realm.

"Of course, but ...... It's not the same as the rumors. ”

As he spoke, Ranch glanced at Lisandra from time to time.

This made it impossible for Lisandra to tell if McCarthy was lying, as if he had a secret that he couldn't tell, but she could faintly hear that McCarthy had some strange deep affection for the school.

"Which class are you? Who was the principal at the time? ”

Lisandra asked casually.

You only need to ask the princess to confirm, and you can basically know whether what McCarthy said is true or false.

"Well, that was twenty years ago......"

Ranchi's voice was rare and a little difficult.

“……”

Lisandra tried to keep her smile under control.

The lies he had weaved were so old-fashioned that Lisandra couldn't bear to keep asking them any further.

Then they talked about his self-made business and so on, which was very different from what Lisandra had heard in the restaurant last night, but it was not difficult to find that what McCarthy had said by himself was indeed the original version of the rumor, and without this original version, it would not have been born.

However, she found that Mr. McCarthy had not lied to her all along, and that he had been very conservative in his words, and perhaps he had talked to her about these pastimes in order to ease her mind.

Communicating with McCarthy was indeed a very easy task, and he seemed to naturally take into account the feelings of his friends around him.

If it's an ordinary girl, you might be tempted by him soon.

But Lisandra knew how many pounds and taels she had, and she also felt that McCarthy was only pure kindness to her, and didn't care if she was male or female.

Of course, it is precisely because of McCarthy's natural attitude that one day he is really moved and cares about a certain girl because he likes her, and that girl will also misunderstand love for friendship in line with the principle of not having too much self-awareness.
