Chapter 425: Talia wonders where the great demon has appeared

. In the distant southern continent, the Kingdom of Hutton, the capital of Ikerit.

At ten o'clock in the morning in April, the sky over the capital of Ikerit was dyed with a soft blue, and the air was brighter and fresher with the fragrance of flowers.

Located on the east side of Ikrit College, it passes through two spacious and clean streets, lined with shops and is very bustling.

A diner smells rich with breakfast, the scent of oatmeal and cheese wafting gently through the air.

This is a two-story brown wooden building. The shop sign is engraved with the words "Cat Boss Restaurant" from the Kingdom of Hutton. The roof is wide and naturally curved, and the eaves extend far out. Whenever a breeze blows, the wind chimes under the eaves will make pleasant sounds.

From time to time, accompanied by a series of "ding-ling-ding-ling" sounds, the restaurant's door was pushed open and customers came in and out. The first floor was simply and cleverly divided into several areas. In addition to the counter at the door, there were also passages leading to the back kitchen and the second floor.

At this time, the restaurant was not at its peak breakfast hour and there were few customers. In the kitchen, two women wearing aprons were preparing ingredients at the workbench. Green leafy vegetables, fruits and various condiments were neatly arranged.

Their cooperation is so tacit that no words are needed. On one side, there is the rhythm of the knife dancing on the chopping board, crisp and powerful; on the other side, there is the art of interweaving seasonings and ingredients.

Talia was in charge of the cutting, and every cut was just right, cutting the vegetable slices into uniform sizes and pushing them aside.

Asna is responsible for the mixing and processing, which not only preserves the flavor of the ingredients themselves but also gives them new life.

This morning, Asna, the vice president of the Student Union, did not have any official business.

In the last semester of her junior year, she had already completed all the credits for all courses and her graduation project, and she only needed to apply for graduation when the time came.

Now she is the new head chef of Boss Cat's restaurant. She declined the request to stay on to teach at Ikerite College and does not plan to continue her studies in the fourth grade. She will officially become Boss Cat's disciple after graduation.

During this period, she has become a rare close friend and partner with Miss Tata, who helps Boss Cat run the store.

Every time, Miss Tata would give her the most accurate evaluation and help her improve the dishes.

And the most important thing is that no matter how much food is prepared, Miss Tata can eat it all.

There is no need to worry about her eating too much and not being able to continue giving instructions, nor is there any need to worry about wasting food.

So since meeting Tata, Asna felt that her cooking skills had improved by leaps and bounds, and she began to cook for Tata day and night. Tata was also very happy, and in order to speed up Asna's cooking, he personally became her sous chef.

The only thing that worried Asna was whether Tata would eat too much.

Although Tata doesn't seem to have gained any weight, if he continues to eat like this, we might see a little belly in the summer.

Talia was still busy preparing the ingredients in a series of skilled steps.

However, she suddenly paused.

The blade in her hand quietly touched the cutting board, and her eyes withdrew from the cut vegetables. She slowly raised her head and looked to one side of the kitchen.

Outside the window, the spring sunshine fills the windowsill, and the leaves sway gently in the breeze.

“…”

Talia's eyes did not seem to be focused on this peaceful scene, but were cast further away, immersed in some deep thought.

Her face looked particularly confused at this moment, with complex light flashing in her eyes.

Asna noticed this change, stopped what she was doing, and looked at Talia with concern.

"Tata, what's the matter?"

Asna felt that Tata suddenly seemed to be worried about something.

Talia shook her head.

"Nothing, don't worry."

In fact, she didn't know whether it was an illusion or reality.

She always felt that a new great demon had appeared somewhere in the world just now, and that he was a guy with a connection to herself, which was why she, as a member of the demon royal family, had such a strange feeling.

If you think about it carefully, the remains of the Great Demon Tribe’s trial have been almost completely destroyed. Even if there are any remaining ones, they are probably controlled by humans.

It is impossible for people to allow powerful demons to complete their training and become great demons.

Unless - there is a demon she is familiar with who survived, mingled among humans, and recently found an opportunity to sneak into the Great Demon Trial, collected the final mark, and successfully became a Great Demon.

But no matter how hard she tried, Talia couldn't figure out which demon it was.

A hundred years ago, not to mention the powerful demons, even the talented demons were almost all dead.

Even if he had become a great demon now, it would be of no use other than unlocking the upper limit of his own innate magic.

Because they have no demon king or ancestral land, they cannot even obtain a title and can only become "the nameless great demon."

If I must say, the Great Demon Race has another function, which is to be worthy of being the descendants of the Demon King.

According to the tradition of the demon clan, the fiancé of the demon royal family must at least be a great demon.

But she has no interest in anyone pursuing her, whether it is the demons, the great demons or humans.

Even if a new great demon was born now, and was related to her, he wouldn't propose marriage to her specifically, causing rumors to fly all over the demon world.

She would always suddenly realize that the demon kingdom had ceased to exist a hundred years ago, and she had long since changed her identity. The demons and the northern continent would soon have nothing to do with her.

If I had to say anything regretful.

That is, she had no idea about the whereabouts of her best friend and guardian Antanas.

There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!

Now that her life is getting better, she always feels a little lonely because Antanas is not around.

"Tata, who are you thinking about?"

Asna noticed that Tata had been a little absent-minded since a while ago, so she finished the work at hand and then asked slowly.

"I thought of a dear friend whom I had lost touch with for a long time."

Talia nodded and replied.

She now feels that Asna is also her friend. It is hard for her to imagine that one day she will make friends with humans, treat each other sincerely, work together, live together, and chat together every day.

"Then you can ask Lanqi to help you find someone. He is very good at this kind of civil commission work."

Asna recalled that since the new semester started, the student union had lost Lanqi and Hyperion, and the workload seemed to have increased a lot.

"Forget it."

Tata shook his head. Asna didn't know that this was not a civil issue at all.

Antanas is an ancient great demon. They have lost contact for a hundred years, and even Talia herself cannot describe Antanas's specific appearance.

You can't just say to Lanci, "When you go to the northern continent, please bring me a big demon named Antanas," and then when he comes back from his trip, he will bring Antanas to the door of the store like a souvenir.

I wouldn't dream of doing this.

Moreover, she was not prepared at all. If Antanas suddenly saw her completely transformed into a human being, getting along with humans in a friendly and comfortable manner, she would probably want to commit suicide.

Talia thought about it and continued to cut vegetables with peace of mind.

"By the way, Asna, you guys will have mid-term break soon. Can I leave for a few days?"

Talia remembered that Ikerit College would have a seven-day mid-term break every May and June. At that time, Asna should be able to stay in the store every day, and the student union president Monast would also come to the store to help Asna.

"Sure, are you ready to travel?"

Ashna nodded.

"No, I want to go back to Nanwantina Territory. There is something I have been concerned about. I just thought of it and decided to go check it out."

When Talia heard Asna mention Lanqi, she couldn't help but think of the station at the border of South Wantina. When Hans, the butler of Lanqi's family, was seeing them off, he said that Lanqi had once painted a picture, and it was a pity that she couldn't see it.

She later became more and more curious about what kind of painting it was.

It just so happened that the business of Boss Cat's restaurant had been getting on track recently, and there was a good opportunity next month. She planned to go back to Nanwantina to take the trip to Wilford's house to see the Lanqi painting.
