The air in the terrace garden became quiet.

Both of them looked a little embarrassed.

Only the gentle sound of the harp came from nowhere, as if it could make the midsummer breeze flow under the night sky.

Huberian pretended to be calm, but her pursed mouth kept trembling, and she felt tears about to fall out of her eyes when she remembered what had just happened.

She was in front of the Academy of Ichrita...... No, I'm afraid it will spread to the entire Hutton Kingdom.

Now Hubertian couldn't think about the reaction in the Academy of Eceryta.

But she is sure that the incident between her and Lanqi will definitely be spread by the school, after all, the scandal of Dean Loren is a lesson from the past.

She and Ranch were always like that.

Most of the time, it's okay to get along.

Occasionally, when things happen suddenly, and you realize that "their relationship is not like this", "maybe they have crossed the line, or they haven't crossed the line", it is like breathing and blinking into a manual transmission, and they will not even do the most basic things.

Obviously, if you don't think about anything, you can talk to each other about everything, and you don't have to mind that the other party is the opposite sex or something, in short, the relationship is very good.

Fortunately, on the terrace in summer, the night view is open, and there are many scenes to divert attention from each other.

Finally.

"Ranch."

Huberian spoke.

Her eyes were lowered.

"Huh?"

Ranch looked at Hubertian beside him.

Normally, at this time, he would wait for Hubertarian to calm down a little before opening his mouth to comfort Hubertarian, and this time Hubertarian took the initiative to speak first.

"Actually, I don't blush easily, because I've been used to receiving other people's eyes since I was a child. Maybe it's because I'm half of the demon blood, but I can always stay calm and cold. Even if I wanted to act more like a sentimental human girl, maybe part of that was acting. ”

She said.

Gradually, he raised his head and looked at him.

Needless to say, the rest of the story.

Because her flushed cheeks speak for it—

The reason why she changed was all because of him.

Rows of carefully manicured Demon Realm exotic flowers and plants swayed gently in the courtyard breeze, shimmering with a subtle sheen, as if whispering the secrets of the night sky.

After telling the truth, Huberian gradually breathed a sigh of relief and relaxed, and leaned on the balcony fence to look at the manor and the sea.

"When I first met you, I thought you were a cool girl with a great sense of distance. Even though I was very reliable as a teammate and kind to me, it always felt like it wasn't easy to get on good terms with you. ”

Lanch followed her gaze into the distance, his arm on the stone railing, and said slowly to himself beside her,

"I didn't expect it, and then I didn't know if I was used to the daily routine of staying with you, or if I was already subconsciously unwilling to imagine what it would be like to be away from you."

They're back to their normal ways of being like again.

We started chatting again.

Occasionally looking at each other, it seems that they are thinking about some unanswered question, and the embarrassment has disappeared cleanly.

Not even realizing that behind them, at the entrance to the third-floor terrace, the cat boss had already pushed open the door with telekinetic magic and called them for dinner.

Boss Cat walked to the wooden floor of the terrace and looked at the backs of the two chatting in confusion.

Although in the eyes of the cat boss, Ranchi and Hubertarian usually get along like this.

But it always felt like the two of them were a little closer to each other's shoulders today.

However, based on the time it took to cook, Huberian had only woken up for a while, and Lanch had led her all the way down the stairs, and it was impossible for the two of them to make any progress in such a small amount of time.

"Meow meow, I don't want to disturb you, but it's late."

Boss Cat never bothered teenagers and girls to talk, unless it was too late for dinner.

What's more, Hubertian slept for most of the day and didn't even eat lunch, so he would starve his body.

However, neither of them noticed it.

"Meow Meow ......"

Boss Cat looked at the two of them who were talking under the stars.

The cacophony of the restaurant downstairs could be heard from the balcony fence, and it was not easy for them to hear the shouting from such a distance.

"Meow!"

Boss Cat gradually approached, meowing from time to time, deliberately making various noises on the floor, and almost knocking over the chairs on the terrace.

It finally confirmed, and the two men couldn't hear anything.

Hubertarian's face still has a pale red that has not faded, like makeup, making her look even more beautiful.

And Lanchi is no longer so dignified at the moment, he laughs from the bottom of his heart from time to time, like a high-spirited teenager who has found a treasure again.

Boss Cat turned his head sideways and sighed.

It walked back, no longer bothering the two of them.

There are also tables and chairs on the patio courtyard, so it can be a waiter for the two of them again, helping them deliver all the meals.

Not long after, with the small black briquettes busy in the night, you can see the pure black texture table in the courtyard garden with candlesticks and dinner.

The lights dance in the corners of the terrace, the sparkle of the handmade ice, the shine of the bottles, the mist of the new food, everything is refracted by the light.

Boss Cat ran to the feet of the two.

"It's time for dinner!"

The little black cat raised its head and said to the two of them in its childish voice.

At the same time, Ranch and Huberian lowered their heads as if they had just woken up from a dream, and noticed the only bright eyes of the dark figure of the boss cat in the night.

When I turned around, I realized that the dining table on the patio terrace had been set up in a new shape.

The open-air view of the sky becomes the backdrop for the table, and it is only here that the awareness is heightened that this is a palace restaurant by the illuminated bay.

"Thank you, Boss Cat."

Ranch and Huberian spoke happily to Boss Cat, and walked towards the table, taking their seats on either side of the square table.

When night falls, a little starlight seems to be reflected on the dining table, giving them a color that is absurd and dreamy.

"Guest, please look at this meow first."

Boss Cat used telekinetic magic to float a diamond-shaped black cowhide guide onto the table, and handed them a preview of the dinner menu with a sense of professionalism and ritual.

Ranch opened the menu and placed it in front of Huberian so she could see it.

An appetizer on the table is freshly grilled beef, cut into small pieces, sprinkled with herbs, fried saltgrass leaves, and clear pear slices, and spread on a thin layer of black bread.

Thick slices of venison marinated in salt and black pepper are also fried until the skin is fragrant on the outside and soft on the inside, and the roasted venison is served with thin slices of black truffle between the slices.

"Isn't this the dinner we had at the Demon King's Restaurant? Boss Cat, when did you learn to cook Demon World dishes? ”

Hubertian saw half of the menu, and already knew what Ranch had prepared for them with the cat's dinner.
