Chapter 521 Great Love Poet: Lanqi, just die and it's over
In this room, whose ceiling is made of wooden boards and diagonal beams, the angle of the glass skylight gives the feeling of a terrace that can reflect the starry sky at night.
But at this moment.
Under the gradually brightening summer sunlight, the hearts of the two people in the room were already beating rapidly.
"Tata, things are not what you think."
Lanqi denied it immediately.
"No? You didn't think about what I just said?"
When Talia saw Lanqi's straightforward and firm denial, there seemed to be a hint of anger in her voice.
"No, don't take it out of context."
Sweat broke out on Lanqi's forehead.
Talia is a good liar, and the more I explain to her, the more confusing things become.
"That means I didn't read it wrong..."
Talia's breathing became rapid and shallow, and she was experiencing a huge wave of emotions.
There was an unconscious blush on her cheeks, which was a physiological reaction to extreme shock and tension.
"Calm down, calm down, Talia!"
Lanqi's palms were cold. Talia grabbed his tie and he could only feel the dangerous temperature in front of him from a very close distance.
Talia is now in great danger, even more dangerous than when they first met on the second floor of Wilford's house last week! Lanqi first couldn't understand why she could suddenly read his mind without any warning.
Secondly, Taliyah's current mind-reading magic is only half-baked. In addition, he has the [Mark of Truth] which can gain a certain resistance to detection magic. It seems that he may not be able to let Taliyah read the whole thing!
The last second, Lanqi thought he should be as steady as an old dog.
Now, I never expected that Talia had already awakened her mind-reading magic too quickly! "You must listen to me this time, okay? I have been in the Northern Continent for more than half a year. A lot of things happened during this time, and it is not something that can be explained in a few words. I will not lie to you. Let's sit down and talk slowly, okay?"
Lanqi spoke slowly, like a bomb disposal expert, trying to calm Talia down.
“…”
Talia's movements were somewhat mechanical and stiff.
There were already too many things she didn't understand.
Why were Antanas, Shinora, and Pranai able to trust Lanci, get along with him, and come back together? According to her impression, except for Antanas who was less aggressive, the other two great demons would probably kill Lanci the moment they saw him, and there was no room for negotiation.
Even if he got a chance to negotiate, Lanqi's hope of making them believe him was very slim.
Unless... Lanqi makes good use of her identity as a demon princess.
Thinking back to what Lanqi had just been thinking, Talia became more and more scared.
Could it be that she is just sitting at home and her husband is coming down from heaven?
"Tata, listen to me. We need to communicate. Don't worry, nothing is irreversible. Even if you really feel that it is irreversible, I will not run away."
Lanci is still trying to comfort.
He felt that Talia's mood was gradually returning to normal after the excitement just now.
Even if there are some surprises.
He can still be saved.
He has always been steady, and the word "crash" does not exist in his dictionary. After all, he has never been a funny comedian.
Just at this moment.
There were some unknown noisy noises coming from the restaurant floor below.
"Oh! Why is there a rat in the store?"
The girl's scream echoed through the floor, along the stairs and corridors to the living room of Talia's room.
Then came the meowing of cats.
"Meow meow meow! There's no mouse!"
The cat boss seemed to be scared and lay on the cupboard.
Chaos ensued.
"It's a fox!"
As a result, Antanas discovered that the big fox had become too small and was scurrying around on the ground, and was mistaken for a big black rat by the poet of great love.
In an instant, the noise downstairs became quiet again.
Just by hearing the sounds, Lanqi could tell what was happening in the restaurant on the first floor.
Such a simple incident was not that unexpected.
But.
Lanqi's facial expression was completely frozen.
If it weren't for the clock on the wall of Talia's house still ticking, one would have thought it was a still picture.
At this moment when Talia was in an unstable state of mind.
Any impact would be extremely horrific.
What's more, I love the poet's enchanting voice that amplifies emotions tenfold!
For a moment, Lanqi was a little confused whether the great poet was really afraid of mice or was determined to kill him!
“Tata…?”
He felt stiff all over and sweat kept coming out of his face. He tried to force a smile and looked at Talia, whose eyes were already blurry.
Talia fumbled around on the cabinet for a long time as if she had lost her soul. The first thing she grabbed was a fruit knife.
“Lanqi——!”
Talia pushed Lanqi against the wall and put the knife against Lanqi's neck. "You, you have to be responsible for me. If you can't take this responsibility, I will, I will."
Her voice was shaking and incoherent, full of frustration, resentment and helplessness.
At this moment, Lanqi could no longer analyze the composition of her emotions.
All we know is that the poet of great love ignited a bomb more terrifying than the nuclear fusion wolf.
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
“…”
Lanqi was speechless for a long time. If he dared to make any excuses now, Talia might die with him.
But if they don't shirk responsibility and say too much, when Talia wakes up, they might explode together.
Now--
He is only half a step away from death!
There's no way I can get away with it by reasoning like I did before!
…
The first floor of Cat Boss Restaurant.
"Um?"
Antanas looked up in confusion.
She felt that Talia's magic fluctuations just now were very strong.
"What are those two doing up there?"
Shinola asked in confusion.
“…”
Pranay was still cleaning the glass.
Hyperion held her chin in her hand and frowned in thought.
It was supposed to be a touching reunion, but in addition to being moved and dazed, Tata unexpectedly seemed to have a hot face.
"...Wait, in your impression, is Tata very different from what you just saw?"
Hyperion looked up as if something suddenly occurred to her.
"yes."
Antanas and Shinora nodded.
"hiss--"
Hyperion gasped.
My dearest friend, you are determined to die, I really can't stop you! Hyperion hugged her head, she finally understood what was going on.
As we all know, the accident rate of Magic Airship Aviation is the lowest, but once it crashes, the survival rate is also the lowest!
The worst thing was that if the poet's intentional or unintentional voice had been heard on the second floor, the situation in the room might have become unpredictable.
Hyperion immediately recalled the tongue-sticking poet of love, kept her under close watch, and never let her out again.
“Three!”
Hyperion said to them quickly.
Antanas actually felt that there was something wrong with the fluctuation of magic power upstairs. He nodded and followed Hyperion to the stairs.
"What's going on?"
The cat boss didn't understand why Hyperion's expression suddenly changed, and followed curiously.
Soon they all arrived at the door of Talia's room on the second floor.
Listening through the door, the room was calmer than expected, with only the two people's breathing sounds being more obvious than usual. It seemed that no one had died yet.
“…”
Hyperion was very anxious now. She held the spare key in her hand and didn't know whether she should force the door open to save Lanqi.
But after her last experience at Wilford's house, she realized that if she forced her way in, an even more unpredictable tragedy might occur.
Fortunately, no one else knew about that incident except the Lanqi family.
She finally grabbed the key and turned her head to signal the three great demons with her eyes, ready to rescue Lanqi at any time.
It is hard to tell what happened in the room now. Listen first. If something goes wrong, rescue Lanqi! (End of this chapter)
