Don't confiscate my citizenship

Chapter 871 Interview with Mr. Lanqi passing by

Beside the road, Lanci and Talia were still hugging each other.

"Tata, are you cold?"

Lan Qi asked seemingly puzzled.

Thalia tried to take a deep breath, and slowly relaxed the hand on Lanqi's back, but she still let Lanqi hold her, and she was as motionless as a delicate doll.

In the past, she would have said to Lan Qi in a threatening tone, if you can, just continue to hold me and don't let me go.

But today she was determined to indulge Lan Qi.

As long as she behaves badly, Lan Qi can't do anything to her.

"Um."

Thalia pretended to be weak and leaned half closer to his arms.

"Master Leng, can you hold me for a little longer?"

Thalia looked up at him and said softly.

“…”

Lan Qi was silent for a rare moment.

Although his expression did not change, he even stopped to look at Thalia for a moment.

Tata's mutation today was too much for him to resist, and even Talia was no longer good at it.

"Of course you can, but you won't first..."

Ranchi tried to continue parsing Tata.

"I won't sneak away first."

Thalia narrowed her eyes and smiled, lowering her voice as she asked him,

"Although I have only had a superficial experience of dating you alone in the past few hundred years, you are my first and only man. I will not be so shy that I can't bear to run away."

“…”

Faced with Talia's words, Lanci repeatedly received incorrect data.

He held Thalia, but this time he really needed time to think.

Thalia today felt strange to him.

Is this the demon princess who hasn't been married in eight hundred years?

…

For a brief moment.

Rosalinda was already hiding behind a newsstand with her cat in her arms. She was much closer to Lanci and Thalia, but her eyes were still firmly fixed on the man and woman not far away.

"Oh my God, little black cat, did you see it? They really didn't let go, and this was on the street of Parrieux!"

Countess Rosalinda excitedly grabbed the little black cat's paws, her voice trembling slightly with excitement.

Her eyes sparkled and her cheeks flushed with excitement.

Even she felt a little shy looking at it.

But those two people seemed to ignore the gazes of passers-by.

"I can't believe that Tata is so affectionate. Look at the way she looks at Ranchi, as if he is her whole world."

Rosalinda hugged the little black cat a little tighter.

This is exactly the sweet love in her fantasy!

"Meow…"

Listening to Rosalinda's words, the cat boss couldn't bear to see Rosalinda cry more and more.

“Finally let go, wait.

Rosalinda continued to stare into the distance.

It was Lan Qi who let go of Tata and tied the scarf to Tata.

Tata touched Lan Qi's face with concern and asked him if he was cold. If he was cold, she could continue to use her body temperature to warm Lan Qi.

Lan Qi immediately shook his head and took steps forward, then as if he had forgotten something, he turned back, took Thalia's hand and started walking again.

They walked on the road of Parrieux, enjoying the peaceful time among the quaint old buildings in the old neighborhood of North Shore.

Rosalinda quickly retreated behind the newsstand.

"By the way, Tata, do you have somewhere you want to go?"

Lan Qi turned his head and looked at Thalia and asked.

Today is not their first date, and they know each other's habits very well.

Lan Qi did not prepare in advance, because preparations other than those in the restaurant were useless.

Tata is different from other girls. The more elaborate the plan, the more confused she will be.

"Let's go to Platinum Palace first. Last time we went to have lunch before finishing the movie."

Thalia thought for a moment, it was almost eleven o'clock, but she had eaten a lot of snacks at Count Rosalinda's Mansion, so she was not hungry yet, so she could go shopping in the hour before lunch.

Platinum Palace is very close to their meeting place, and it only takes a while to walk there.

The main reason was that the two of them competed with each other to tease each other, and finally ran out of the Platinum Palace in a hurry and embarrassment.

If possible, she really wanted to calm down and enjoy a museum with such epic paintings with Lan Qi.

"Then our itinerary will be the same as last time. Do you still want to go to the Cologne Zhiri Bridge Inn Restaurant for lunch?"

Lanci asked Thalia.

In fact, Milaya recommended them to the Colonzhi Bridge Inn restaurant in the morning, which is the restaurant where they ate all afternoon in Parrieux last time, so they were so embarrassed this morning.

That day at the restaurant of the Ziri Bridge Inn in Cologne, Lan Qi fed Talia, and Talia also had a good meal. She obviously gained a lot of weight after eating, and Lan Qi was particularly impressed.

“…”

In an instant, the blood vessels near Thalia's temple twitched slightly.

She didn't say anything, but she could actually hear what Lan Qi was thinking.

The last time they dated was when she had just separated from the great love poet, and now her state of crazy love has not yet been lifted, and she can fully hear Lan Qi's heartfelt voice.

She turned her eyes sideways and met Lan Qi's gaze, and found that Lan Qi was observing her as expected. The green eyes with natural doubts hidden deep seemed to be expecting her to get angry immediately and then reveal her true colors.

But today she doesn't care anymore. No matter how arrogant Lan Qi is, she will let Lan Qi go.

"Yes, I want you to continue holding me and feeding me, treating me like a big gray cat that can be hugged."

Thalia tiptoed close to Lan Qi's ear and whispered to him.

Lan Qi's steps suddenly stopped, and his eyes changed from doubt to suspicion.

He felt like he had fallen into an illusory space. From the origin of the universe to the birth of the first life underwater to universal gravity and the mass-energy equation, all the knowledge in the world passed through his mind, except that he could not analyze the crazy gray-haired girl in front of him.

…

"What are they talking about? Are they talking about love? Are they going to do something shameful?"

Rosalinda tightened her grip on the cat again.

She was throbbing.

"Don't be fooled by the superficial appearance of things, they..."

Boss Cat really wanted to tell Rosalinda that at this time, the two of them had ten thousand thoughts, and they must be thinking of how to disgust each other.

It once mistakenly thought that this would be a romantic encounter between an iceberg beauty and a gentle boy, and was so looking forward to the spark of love between them.

Now that it has truly understood the two of them, it has discovered that Lanta is the evil one.

But then I think about it, today's situation seems to be a little different from before.

It's hard to tell whether they are scheming against each other or just following the trend.

Boss Cat and Rosalinda didn't chat a word, and Lanci and Talia were already holding hands and walking away from each other.

Rosalinda followed closely behind, walking through the streets with the cat in her arms. She was hiding but couldn't wait to see the whole date.

…

Ten minutes later.

Platinum Palace, District 2, North Shore, Parrieux, Huadu.

Stalactites dot the dome, and angel reliefs dance on the vault, so lifelike that they seem to burst out of the wall at any time.

The brilliant stained glass mosaic in the center of the dome projected colorful rasters onto the marble floor, and Lanci and Thalia walked across it.

Both of them have mentioned more than once that they want to visit this art museum, one of the largest and oldest in the southern continent, and an iconic landmark of the Posen Kingdom.

Although the venue for the third round of the platinum-level card maker exam was the Platinum Forest Palace, since then both of them have been eager to go to the actual venue to find out in person.

What's more, the Platinum Palace itself is a check-in destination that cannot be missed when traveling to the Posen Kingdom.

Last time, the hotel where the two stayed was too close to the Platinum Palace, so although they passed by it often, they never took the time to visit.

Just like most local residents don't go out of their way to visit the scenic spots at their doorsteps. Living close by, they always feel that they can go there at any time. However, if they don't have the opportunity one day, they might miss this beautiful scenery.

The only time we could really have free time to play together was the day of the fireworks festival, and they only visited half of it due to limited time that day.

"In the final analysis, that afternoon's date accounted for too much."

Rosalinda recalled the last time she witnessed the two dating.

"What did they do that afternoon?"

Boss Cat thought about it and felt that they didn't go to many places on their date.

"They ate from noon to evening."

Rosalinda replied seriously.

“…”

Indeed, most of the date was gone.

Boss Cat now realizes that the date between Lan Qi and Tata is also very simple.

Eat eat eat eat play eat eat eat.

The two people they followed strolled through the spacious exhibition hall, flanked by two seven-meter-tall sphinxes facing each other majestically.

When they came here, Lanci and Tata knew how to get to the surrounding exhibition halls without looking at the map.

"To be honest, I think the director would definitely like to see this Platinum Palace."

Lan Qi looked at the familiar palace and said to Thalia.

They had been here not only once before, but also witnessed its partial projection in the artificial shadow world during the platinum level card maker exam.

The Sphinx is the landmark of the hall where the examiners are located, and will be well known to all candidates and examiners.

"If Abigail wasn't busy with so many things, she might have followed us to Huadu, but what you really want is for her to navigate the attack team so that we don't have to look at the map."

Thalia understands that Abigail is now busy preparing the sequel to the opera.

In recent days, the dimensional branch may take the team directly to South Wantina to claim it, and during the last period of time in the capital of Creain, Brilda, Abigail has been training Xiubao.

"Huberlian is really a master of all arts."

Lan Qi unlocked many functions along the way, and Hyperion also learned wherever he went.

"By the way, did you know that Hyperion has been feeling a little unwell lately?"

Talia didn't mind Lan Qi mentioning other women when they were dating her, because they were her precious girls, so they could mention Xiu Bao casually, and Lan Qi should also care about Xiu Bao. This was Talia's response to Lan Qi. Qi’s basic requirements.

"I could tell a little bit, but she didn't want to tell me, so I asked Antanas."

Lan Qi thought back thoughtfully.

At first, he thought it was because Superian was tired from being rigorously trained as a professional actor by Director Abigail, but later he discovered that Superian was in unbearable pain from time to time.

Demon doctor Antanas's diagnosis was that Hyperion had forcibly conquered Melogas' toxin last time in Blood Moon City. It was only by releasing the demon's nature that he succeeded in gaining perfect adaptability, and his body began to move towards The demons are approaching, and the power hidden in their blood has been awakened.

Now that she has returned to her daily life, she once again subconsciously suppressed her demonic characteristics, resulting in a physiological conflict.

On the one hand, the body is changing in the direction of the demons and producing enhanced toxins similar to those of the ancestors. On the other hand, the body is trying to reject this toxin, so allergic reactions occur, and sometimes a small amount of use of Melogas occurs. Side effects of desecrating the royal power.

"You do care about her, that's good."

Thalia glanced at Lanqi and praised.

"Antanas said that this symptom is actually not a big problem. It is partially related to her emotions and psychology. As long as she takes a good rest during the intermittent attacks, her body detoxifies very quickly, so it should be over. It will take time to fully adapt to the new changes in the body.”

Lanqi estimated that Hyperion was almost at Icerita now, and there were Antanas and Sinora accompanying her.

As a demon of the same kind as Melogas, it would be almost impossible for Hyperion to be harmed by poison. Melogas was almost immune to the poison.

"Um?"

Thalia suddenly frowned and glared at Lanchi dissatisfied.

"What's wrong?"

Lan Qi finally felt that Talia could speak normally, and she was pressed against her body again.

"No Timerogas."

Thalia said a little angrily.

"I didn't mention her."

Lan Qi thought for a long time before he found out what made Talia angry.

"You had her name in mind."

Thalia continued to press down on Lanci, as if she was going to lie on his chest and push him down.

"Wrong, wrong, I was negligent."

Lan Qi shook his head repeatedly.

If this continues, Thalia will probably hug him again and continue to compete with him in the Platinum Palace.

It’s not a good idea to hug someone arrogantly here. First of all, this is a sacred place full of art. If you want to be civilized, you have to pay attention to the occasion. Moreover, he also noticed that a reporter from the Parrieux Broadcasting Company was interviewing in front of the demon painting at the Platinumson Palace today. .

Recently, issues related to demons have been the hottest topic in the Posen Kingdom, and they even involve cultural aspects.

It’s even worse to be caught in the camera.

"Nearly a thousand years ago, the Platinum Palace was originally built as a military fortress to resist the invasion of aliens. Later, in peaceful times, it was converted into a royal palace. Since then, it has begun to collect a large number of art treasures, gradually becoming sacred and even epic. The collection was incorporated into the collection. Over the years, successive kings expanded and beautified the palace many times, making it the center of art and culture in the Posen Kingdom."

The voice of the docent at Platinumson Palace echoed in the vast exhibition hall where Lanci and Thalia had just arrived.

The two of them walked around the hall, sometimes stopping to admire and sometimes communicating.

It was not until about a century ago that Platinum Palace was converted into a public museum. After several expansions and renovations, it was opened to the public, giving everyone the opportunity to see its rich and colorful collections.

The dome sculpture of the central hall they are entering now outlines the dynamic scene of soaring condors and galloping horses. When you look up, you will feel like you are in the heaven of the age of the gods.

"Tata, do you remember these paintings?"

Lan Qi stood on one side of the central hall and asked Thalia beside him.

In fact, they often have similar interests, but they rarely talk about art appreciation on weekdays, and focus more on the production of magic cards, magic engineering, and food.

Last time I walked past it without taking a long look, and today I finally have time to stop here and enjoy it leisurely.

In the center, the huge oil painting "The Rise of the Kingdom of Evernight" written by the ancient empire painter Stephen Martin is mottled but still magnificent. It reproduces the fierce battle with spears waving and dragons roaring, and the blood of countless warriors in the darkness. Bloom into everlasting glory.

On the left, Isaac Clare's gentle and magnificent painting "The Gift of the Mother Goddess" shows a graceful woman in white gauze holding an urn full of fairy dew, walking through the light clouds and mist, lovingly Leading an innocent lamb.

On the other side of the central hall, the "Three Questions of the Magic Mirror" written by the Grimes brothers reflects a hazy and mysterious female face, staring at the world in the mirror, with both the wisdom of time and the ignorance of a newborn child in her eyes. , as if asking the viewer about the three mysteries of life.

These are all well-known masterpieces in the southern continent.

However, Lanci did not express his evaluation and preference.

“…”

Thalia just turned her head slowly and stared at the entire back wall. Every time you revisit your old place, you will have new feelings.

It was the epic mural "The Judgment of the Demon King" by the ancient imperial painter Tolkien. The scroll, which stretched for hundreds of meters, reproduced the magnificent scene of thousands of heroic soldiers fighting **** battles and launching a desperate fight against the Demon Lord.

She stared at the painting in silence.

But that's the answer she gave.

"What a coincidence, I also like this one the best."

Lan Qi smiled.

"I don't like this picture."

Thalia replied decisively.

“…”

Lan Qi remembered that Talia clearly said she liked this painting the last time.

"When I see this painting, I think of the Shadow World and what I saw you going through, so I don't like it."

Thalia stared at the surprised Lanci and lectured him.

Lan Qi remained silent for a long time and did not speak again.

"Yeah…"

Lan Qi lowered his eyes, and a relieved smile gradually appeared on his straight mouth.

He stood in front of the painting without moving for a long time, while Thalia stood watching him.

"Let's go."

Lan Qi held Thalia's hand tightly again and walked forward.

There are more paintings waiting for them to see.

There is no need to stop in front of the paintings you have seen before.

"Lan Qi, why did you suddenly hold my hand tightly? My embrace makes you feel at ease, and my warmth makes you care. You need my company very much, right?"

Thalia followed Lanqi with a slightly proud look and asked him in a low voice.

"Um."

Lanci seemed to have successfully obtained the training set and knew how to deal with Thalia's plan, and he freely admitted Thalia's words.

"Eh?"

Thalia's eyes widened for a moment at Lanci's response.

Her face quickly grew hot.

She originally thought Lan Qi would veto it outright, but she didn't expect that he suddenly agreed.

Thalia was at a loss.

No, no, we can't be fooled by him.

He must be saying something damning next second!

Thalia's erratic mood made her even more worried that Lan Qi would see the flaw, so she slowed down her pace. Instead of walking side by side with Lan Qi, she was led by him and walked behind him.

Her current expression must not be seen by Lan Qi.

However, after waiting for a long time, Lan Qi did not speak again.

This made Thalia not know what to say to him.

She covered her red cheeks with the back of her left hand and the cuff of her sleeves, looked away, and thought repeatedly about what Lan Qi had just meant.

The two of them climbed up the stairs, and the Corridor of Reason and Corridor of Prosperity slowly unfolded in front of them.

Behind the corner downstairs in the distance, a head and a cat head appeared.

There were many shelters in the exhibition hall, so Rosalinda and Cat Boss dared to get closer to Lanci and Thalia.

"Wow, what they just said, wow, wow."

Rosalinda sighed as she didn't know how to express her inner thoughts at this moment.

"Where did this come from, meow? Is this still Lanta?"

The cat boss raised his paws to cover his ears when he suspected that the cat was mad.

…

Corridor of Reason in Platinum Palace.

While the two were visiting and discussing, Talia stopped under a painting, and Lan Qi also stopped and looked with her.

In the painting, a beautiful girl wearing a flowing dress lies peacefully on a four-poster bed in Icerite style.

Her eyebrows were lightly closed, her mouth was smiling, and her expression was quiet and soft, like a sleeping angel. Her long silver hair spread out on the white pillow, and the white silk sheets set off her smooth skin like gelatin.

Outside the window is a lush forest, with lush trees and dappled sunlight streaming in through the window lattice, casting swaying light and shadow on the girl's body.

"Lan Qi, thank you for helping me find my sister."

Thalia raised her head and stared at the Sleeping Beauty in the painting, and she looked at it like this for a long time.

There was an endless stream of tourists coming and going, but they stood in front of the painting for a long time.

Lan Qi did not disturb Talia anymore, and just stayed by her side quietly.

No matter how many times she sees it, Thalia still finds Sleeping Beauty beautiful.

It's just that my mood when I saw this painting this time was completely different from last time.

The nostalgia and sadness turned into peace of mind and joy.

All this is thanks to Lan Qi.

So no matter how many times, she wanted to thank Lan Qi.

"When I look at this painting, I feel completely different."

The last time he saw it, Lan Qi was still appreciating the work of art carefully and talking to Talia about his thoughts.

Now I just think of her as the girl next door.

"My sister is so pretty."

Thalia reluctantly looked away from the painting.

The two walked around the art gallery again. Compared to the outside, the atmosphere here seemed much quieter.

Perhaps it was due to circumstances, but they had no intention of causing trouble.

After passing through the main exhibition hall, they came to the Place de Parrieux on the left, passing by the fountain with the statue of the God of Will and Love. They had now visited half of the Platinum Palace.

"By the way, the painting "Mysterious Beauty" you painted is still at the Platinum Palace. Don't you care about it at all?"

Walking in the corridor of the sub-exhibition hall near the exit of Platinumson Palace, Thalia's eyes suddenly turned to a direction in her mind and asked.

This epic work of art born during the platinum-level card maker exam was supposed to be brought back to the Hutton Kingdom by the mysterious examiner himself, but due to the war in the Southern Continent that followed, it has been stored there ever since. Countess Rosalinda’s residence in Asturias, and under the arrangement of Countess Rosalinda, it was placed in the safer Perkinson Palace and was put on display for a limited time.

Unexpectedly, it has almost become a permanently exhibited collection.

"Mystery Beauty is always by my side."

Lanci looked down at Thalia and answered her.

“…”

Thalia's calm expression gradually turned uneasy, and she opened her eyes.

Lan Qi also started to say some strange things.

If this continues, she doesn't know if she will be unable to resist first.

While the two were chatting, the bustling exhibition area around them happened to attract their attention.

There were many spectators gathered around the fixed exhibition area, listening to the lecturer's introduction.

When Ranchi and Talia looked at the painting, they immediately recognized this work—

There is a deep and dark night on the canvas. Under the dim light of the temple, a gray-haired woman wearing a ragged cloak stands quietly, like a gleam of moonlight in the dark night.

Her face is completely obscured by a dove, and her white wings stretch out in the center of the picture, bringing an abrupt and stunning visual impact.

"When you look carefully, you can catch a glimpse of the woman's eyes through the wings of the night dove. They are a pair of golden eyes, as clear as crystal and as dazzling as gold."

The docent of Platinumson Palace explained to the tourists.

"Her gaze penetrates the shadow of the dove and falls directly on the viewer. You can't help but move closer to the painting, wanting to take a closer look and see the true face of this enigmatic beauty."

"When you are only one foot away from the painting, the beauty's golden eyes are locked on your face."

The two looked at the painting from a distance.

At the same time, listen to the voice of the commentator.

"Every story seems to start from that scene in that painting."

Every time Talia recalled her encounter with Lan Qi in Nanwantina Territory, she felt incredible.

"Perhaps that is a promise made a hundred thousand years ago."

Lan Qi muttered to himself.

After he saw the story of Lanclos and Tamisha, he could not deny that there might be some kind of fate that was recorded by the goddess of fate.

I don’t know how much time passed.

The other side of the exhibition hall.

"In addition to this "Sleeping Beauty", we have to mention another painting with the same name as "Mysterious Beauty". Although it depicts a beautiful young human woman, its hazy beauty often makes many people wander. The residents of the Mori Demon Realm associate her with the Silver Demon King Singer who appeared in the Creation Empire. Could it be that the connection between "Mystery Beauty" and "Sleeping Beauty" is not a coincidence?"

A reporter from Parrieux Broadcasting Company held a microphone and camera equipment and walked along the route before interviewing the demon portrait "Sleeping Beauty" to the exhibition hall where "Mysterious Beauty" is located.

The reporter talked to the camera and at the same time showed the painting in the exhibition hall.

When he searched the audience present, he found that most of the audience were lining up to admire the painting. Only a man and a woman were standing in the distance chatting leisurely, with no intention of getting closer to see it.

The reporter immediately found the best interview target and walked towards the pair of passers-by who were quite relaxed and not in the center of the crowd.

Lanci and Talia were still standing there chatting when they noticed that a team from Parrieux Broadcasting Company was approaching them.

But at this time, they subconsciously couldn't run.

Neither of them wanted to force the other to be secretive first.

And if they run away, it will look like they have a guilty conscience, and they will feel like Toliado.

They only had one criminal record in Huadu, so they were really not fugitives.

"Both of you, are you looking at the painting "Mysterious Beauty"? Do you have any opinions on the recent racial controversy over the mysterious beauty in the portrait in the Poisen Kingdom?"

A reporter from Broadcasting Company Parrieu raised the microphone and asked Lanci and Talia questions enthusiastically.

"He is more concerned about things related to the demon clan."

Thalia turned her head and pointed at Lan Qi beside her.

If their identities are discovered in the future, I don’t know how this interview will be written.

As a historical figure and a public demon, she didn't want to say much.

"It doesn't matter what race she is. She is who you see her."

Lanci answered for Thalia.

"whee."

Thalia snickered silently.

Although she had long believed that Lan Qi was friendly to the demons and her equally, every time she heard Lan Qi's truest voice, she would think of the moment when she truly changed her feelings towards Lan Qi.

At that time, she saw the video of the Shadow World Purgatory Corridor Academy that Lan Qi brought, and heard the conversation between Lan Qi and Xiubao. Perhaps that was when she decided to let go of her guard against this guy.

"What do you think of the recent activity of the demons in the Kraiyu Empire? And do you know about the recent rumors about the return of the demons in the Posen Kingdom?"

The reporter pointed the microphone at this citizen gentleman who was passing by and continued to ask.

Of the two, the young man with black hair and green eyes is obviously better at answering questions and can accept interviews calmly.

"I have no idea."

Lan Qi shook his head and waved his hand directly,

"But I am convinced that under her leadership, the demon clan will never be able to recover."

He preached with conviction.

Talia wanted to kick Lan Qi's heel in shame and anger. She knew that Lan Qi was laughing at her that she would never be able to return to the country in this life.

But what happens if we can’t restore the country? If she is gone, she will make the Lanqi family poor.

"How do you make such a judgment?"

Although the reporter from Parrieux Broadcasting Company was a little hesitant, he quickly responded.

"At first glance, she looks good, can eat, is old, and is a useless demon."

Lan Qi suppressed the curvature of his mouth and commented on the silver singer.

The reporter thought for a while. This was the first time he heard such a comment.

Good-looking is indeed recognized.

Can eat...she is so healthy, she must be eating well.

It is certain that he is older, after all, he must live a long time to become a demon king.

As for whether it is useful or not, the fact that the majestic devil turned into a singer has already explained a lot of problems.

“…”

Talia was so anxious that she stamped her feet. She couldn't hold down Lan Qi and beat him violently in front of the camera, so she could only pretend to be quiet in front of the camera.

"Do you think the silver-white demon king became like this because of the influence of humans?"

The reporter raised the microphone again.

In fact, the fact that the Demon King can sing would have been puzzling to the Demons even a hundred years ago.

"She is originally a demon, how could she be influenced by humans? If I must say it, it must be humans who are influenced by her."

Lan Qi said naturally and with relief.

"Thank you for your answer. It's really an interesting view. I believe that modern demon kings will become like this. Getting along with and understanding humans is indispensable. We have also seen the development of the Posen Demon World in the past few decades. The possibility of harmony and harmonious coexistence between humans and demons.”

After hearing this, the reporter smiled and summed up the camera,

"Have a great time today."

After the camera moved away, he thanked the two and whispered goodbye.

Lan Qi also waved goodbye to reporters.

Immediately, he continued to look at the paintings in the distance with Thalia quietly.

He felt that Thalia wanted to stay here for a while, so her little hands tightened around his a little longer.

A few more minutes passed until the Parrieu Broadcasting Company team completely disappeared from the exhibition hall, and even the audience queuing in front of the Mystery Beauty painting had dispersed.

"What do you mean you are influenced by me? Will you really be influenced by me..."

Thalia cooed, leading him forward.

Could it be that what the poet of great love failed to accomplish in her entire life, she could do it easily?

“…”

Lanci answered her with the words Thalia said just now -

"Every story begins with meeting the wandering gray-haired princess."

They stopped in front of the painting of Mysterious Beauty and admired it.
