At best, nothing might really happen in the next year or two.
But turmoil is as unpredictable as a storm. You never know when it will start.
Maybe this fall, the world will change.
It could be any day, any time period, or even any second.
If troubled times come, having a loyal seventh-level guardian in the family will be more useful than any amount of money.
"How about it, Miss? Are you considering not firing me now?"
Lan Qi asked with an interested smile.
For the time being, he listened to Boss Cat reading the newspaper. The news made Boss Cat very worried.
But he felt there was no problem. The Senate in the Posen Kingdom had guaranteed to take care of the safety of their foreign invited visitors.
As allies, Posen and Hutton will take care of the citizens of the other country once external turmoil begins. Unless there is civil strife or regime change, it may lead to extremely terrible situations.
"No, our agreement will not change. I don't want my family to owe anything to a seventh-level powerhouse. I won't take advantage of you."
Christina shook her head firmly.
"..."
Lan Qi choked.
"Hoohoo."
Thalia chuckled happily in Ranch's mind.
This little girl rejected Lan Qi for at least the third time, and his self-righteous deal was completely unworkable.
"Since there is no entrustment, let me take you home."
Lan Qi looked at the time on the crystal screen of the Holy Silver Vine Arena and said to Christina.
Being laughed at by Talia made Lan Qi very depressed.
"Uh."
Christina nodded first, then hesitantly looked up at the sky, and then moved her eyes to Lan Qi's face.
"Why, do you have any other ideas?"
Ranch asked.
"By the way, will you protect my safety?"
Christina asked him.
"Of course, this is my responsibility and it is very important to me to ensure that the work is perfect."
Lan Qi replied calmly.
The cat boss in the shadow agrees with this sentence.
If Lan Qi becomes dedicated, he may even risk his life.
"Then can you take me to visit the Posen Demon Realm? I haven't been there since I was a child, and my father and brother won't let me go."
Christina glanced up at Lan Qi timidly and expectantly.
"Although it's no problem..."
Lan Qi always felt that the other party was a little rude.
It seems that he is not regarded as a bodyguard, but as some kind of ominous thing that can dispel danger.
"Let's go. We'll go home after a little shopping in an hour."
Lan Qi looked at the time again and agreed simply.
After he and Thalia came to Posen Kingdom, they had not been to the Demon Realm yet.
I originally planned to go to Posen Demon Realm to have a look after finishing all the business.
But since Christina has made such a request, she will go to the devil world as a matter of official duty.
"Great!"
Christina clenched her fists and couldn't wait to get going.
She adjusted her skirt, motioned for Rocky to follow her, and walked lightly towards the passage leaving the spectator stand.
Many Parrieux citizens are afraid to enter areas 7 to 10, which are part of Posen's Demon Realm.
Only her brother Kyle Baptiste was as courageous as he once went with demon bodyguards.
Although in theory, the Posen Demon Realm is not that dangerous, but if you are used to staying in the safe Huadu, you will indeed feel that the security of the Demon Realm is relatively poor.
If you take Rocky with you, there will definitely be no problem.
After all, he is super good at warding off evil spirits.
……
District 6 of Parrieux, where the Holy Silver Vine Arena is located, is only one kilometer away from the border of District 7 of Posen Demon Realm.
Late at night in Parrieux, when the city was immersed in the silence of the silvery moonlight, Lan Qi and Christina had already arrived at the entrance to Posen's Demonic World.
Passing through the narrow alleys on the edge of District 6, Lanci and Christina found a hidden door on the side of a church that had been forgotten by time.
The door is made of weathered oak and covered with fine vines.
However, after opening the door, the view suddenly became brighter.
I saw that the vast hall of the station entrance was full of inspection gates.
"Miss, please don't run away casually when you arrive at the Poson Demon Realm. You must stay with me."
Lan Qi reminded.
"Okay okay."
Christina looked around intently, as if everything was new, and replied.
The two went to the workbench to complete the formalities and passed the gate.
As the mirror in front of them, which looked like a gate to the void, began to glow with warm golden light, they slowly passed through.
Next, a passage filled with light gradually appeared in the field of vision, and the end seemed to be connected to a completely different world.
The moment they completely passed through the light door, they seemed to have crossed time and space and arrived at a street in Parrieux that was both familiar and unfamiliar.
On the street, the floating light balls slowly spread out, illuminating the city in the night. Most of the pedestrians were demons.
On the contrary, it is easier for humans to attract the attention of demons.
This is District 7 of Parrieux. Behind them, a huge copper mechanical clock tower stands in the night sky. Every time the bell rings, it seems to remind them that this is a jurisdiction different from their original world.
"When we return to this clock tower later, we can cross the barrier and return to Parrieux 6 through the pass."
Lan Qi explained to Christina.
At this moment, she seemed a little absent-minded, focusing entirely on admiring the Posen Demon World, which was so close but had not been there since she was a child.
"Take me quickly to see the Posen Demon Realm."
Christina glanced at the time on the clock tower and quickly said to Lan Qi.
The housekeeper's working time is running out, and he will probably only play with her for an hour at most before leaving.
"Ah."
Lan Qi nodded and motioned her to walk towards the brighter business district ahead.
"Currently, District 7 where we are located has poor security, and accidents often occur. On the contrary, Districts 9 and 10, with their eighth-level lords, have the best security."
he reminded Christina.
Districts 7, 8, 9, and 10 of Huadu Parrieu are each under the jurisdiction of a demon lord.
Two of them are seventh-level demons, and two are eighth-level demons.
"oh oh."
After hearing this, Christina nodded cautiously and followed the housekeeper.
When the Posen Kingdom signed an acceptance contract with the demons a hundred years ago, the Posen Kingdom Senate respected the demons by not interfering with the demons' culture in the territory allocated to the demons, nor requiring them to follow human rules. social order.
Therefore, there may be a big difference between District 6 and District 7, and it is no longer safe once you enter the Posen Demon Realm.
But she feels that this division is actually good for both parties.
Whatever kind of life you want to live, follow the rules of which side.
Under the leadership of the housekeeper, Christina shuttled through the streets full of devilish style and miracles.
On the skyline of District 7 of Parrieux, bright skyscrapers, churches and floating courtyards from other dimensions are connected together. The night sky is not only dark blue, but also occasionally shows light golden fireflies, like a mirror reflecting the city. .
It is said that there is a city called Helrom in the northern continent, which has many ruins with the characteristics of the demon world, which are somewhat similar to the Posen Demon Realm in some corners.
They were on a street called the Avenue of Illusions.
The night sky in Posen Demon Realm becomes extremely beautiful due to the supernatural phenomena caused by the space magic barrier. The Avenue of Illusions is the best place to watch this kind of night sky.
In District 7, there is a famous Illusion Night Market nearby.
She just walked a short distance and bought a lot of snacks, and even gave some to Butler Rocky.
For example, "Star Candy" is said to contain a trace amount of star magic. After eating it, you can temporarily feel the wonderful feeling of floating in the night sky. There is also "Ghost Bread", which is made of transparent wheat unique to the Posen Demon World. Made to taste both like clouds and marshmallows.
To Christina's expectation, Butler Rocky accepted them all and did not refuse her sharing.
Before I knew it, more than half an hour had passed.
Seeing that time was getting shorter and shorter, Christina was still a little reluctant to part with this novel trip to the Posen Demon World.
From time to time, she looked at the dark blue mirrored night sky, and then looked back at the mechanical clock tower.
The Lodgekeeper next to him seemed to be looking at the street.
"What are you looking at?"
Christina asked.
"I heard that on the Avenue of Illusions in Posen Demon Realm, there is a small chance that you will encounter a magic dessert float at night. The dessert float is run by a demon dessert master. This kind of ice cream can make people feel extremely happy in an instant. And a small amount of attributes will be improved in a short period of time, but there is only a very small chance of encountering the magic dessert float."
