Chapter 234: Did You Smile?
I was scolded by Safir.
Although Lin Lin had known for a long time that Safir was quite a self-centered guy, she felt an overwhelming sense of shame when she was taught about social interactions by Sapphire Dragon.
When those sapphire-like eyes looked at Lin Lin with worry and disapproval, Lin Lin always felt uneasy, as if she had really done something wrong.
In all honesty, Lin Lin hasn’t felt this "nervous" in a long time. Even at work, she has never been this timid in front of her boss. Facing Safir made her feel like she was back in school, feeling both respect and fear towards her teacher.
When she really began to tremble like a quail, Sapphire Dragon softened his tone.
The hand that rested on the back of Lin Lin’s head moved slightly. Due to her trembling, Safir understood more clearly what a small and fragile human she truly was.
"Of course, this is not your fault," Safir said gently, "it is their problem."
The palm of the dragon touched the soft, warm face of the human woman, made hot by her intoxication.
Humans are not creatures of "spring," and Safir knew this well. Most of the races in Demon King Castle become restless in spring, and she was completely innocent.
However, as a member of the Dragon race, Safir had occasionally heard unpleasant and vulgar jokes from his kin.
"Humans do not have spring, which means they could start their own spring at any time."
The one who said this was an adult Red Dragon. Compared to the serious and strict Sapphire Dragon, the Red Dragon was almost considered a reckless race.
Some Red Dragons only seek pleasure and do not care at all for the alien females they have abandoned, nor for the offspring left behind. On the ground, mixed-blood children with the blood of the Dragon race flow, and three out of five of them are descendants of the Red Dragons.
The lives of those mixed-blood children are mostly not very good.
"You should stay away from those outsiders," Safir said.
While Lin Lin was looking at Safir, Safir was also observing Lin Lin.
When he kept his human form, Lin Lin was already much shorter than him, not to mention the size difference when he was in his Dragon race form.
Lin Lin had once been lifted by the tip of his tail, and the human woman reached out her palm to touch the slightly damp tip of the Dragon race’s nose.
He was a giant to her, while she was a treasure in his hands.
Safir did not agree and would not allow those rude fools, who did not know their limits, to get too close to Lin Lin.
They couldn’t even manage their own lives properly.
Lin Lin was still nervous. When she heard Safir tell her to stay away from the other races, her mind stopped for a few seconds.
"Stay away from the other races? But the Demon King Castle is filled with them, and I am the only human here," Lin Lin’s eyes widened.
Then, she hesitated and let her gaze drift lightly to Safir’s face, clearly seeing his cold and indifferent expression.
"And," Lin Lin said with a shaky voice, "you are also of another race to me, teacher."
Maybe because her expression was too sincere, Safir paused for a moment.
He withdrew his hand that was resting on Lin Lin’s cheek.
Lin Lin felt that Safir was about to get angry because he did not like being contradicted.
But unexpectedly, Safir looked in another direction. It seemed to take him almost ten seconds to process the fact that "he is also of another race to Lin Lin."
Then, Lin Lin saw Sapphire Dragon frown slightly; he looked a bit unhappy.
But he did not mock Lin Lin, nor did he argue with her.
Safir stood in silence for a while.
It was as if the always competitive him really had no words this time.
–
Your Majesty the Demon King is being friendly.
This guy is really too easy to see through; Lin Lin pretended not to understand his intentions.
Another thing that made Lin Lin happy was that Twanasha had returned.
He still liked to stay at the highest point, and on his first day back, Lin Lin discovered him.
Lin Lin sat with him at the highest spot in Demon King Castle.
This Fallen Angel spent some time studying with the God of Light and was successfully released, which is truly touching.
"I thought you wouldn’t come back," Lin Lin cherished her angel friend, "The God of Light actually allowed you to come to the demon realm."
The two sides belong to opposite factions, and Lin Lin believed that Twanasha would not return.
"The deity did not send me," Twanasha said, "I came by myself because I didn’t want to listen to prayers; it is peaceful here."
It’s skipping work, and it’s a bold excuse!
Lin Lin: …it looks like you went straight back to the demon realm as soon as you were released.
So, is there a possibility? Lin Lin felt no malice; she just imagined a possibility that not every angel is perfect.
For some reason, Lin Lin felt a subtle sympathy for the God of Light.
"Please stop the thoughts in your mind," Twanasha calmly said, "It’s somewhat disrespectful to me."
"I’m sorry," Lin Lin told herself not to think about boring things, "Seeing you made me remember my promise to go back to the sanctuary to work, so I can’t help but think about the God of Light."
"I have to go back for at least half a month this year, otherwise with my lazy nature, it will probably take me several years to pay it back."
Compared to Lin Lin’s anxious thoughts, Twanasha looked completely unhurried.
"You can wait a few decades to go too; the God of Light is not in a hurry," Twanasha decided for the deity.
"Decades?" Lin Lin showed an incredulous expression, "Am I supposed to use a cane to go work for the sanctuary at my age? Don’t be so frightening."
Lin Lin thought Twanasha must be confusing the lifespan of humans. However, since Twanasha is an angel who listens to human wishes, they should understand humans well; why would they make such a silly mistake?
What he said was truly terrifying!
Lin Lin’s expression was very vivid, while the Fallen Angel sitting next to her looked rather blank.
The Fallen Angel’s golden eyes rested on Lin Lin’s face; his attention was always a bit scattered, giving off a light and airy feeling.
"Don’t worry," Twanasha said, "you look like you could live for at least two or three hundred more years."
Lin Lin’s mind was hit hard by this sentence.
Her mind went blank, but her nervous feelings showed what she was thinking.
"Why are you surprised?" Fallen Angel did not understand Lin Lin’s shock, "Not just anyone can become a Holy Maiden, and you have also touched a deity, which helps your lifespan. Don’t worry, you will always be very healthy."
No, I am not worried about health issues.
Lin Lin quickly calculated in her mind that if a lifespan is 300 years, and humans retire at 55, then a 300-year-old person would need to work until 165!
What a terrifying future!
Lin Lin went happily to the rooftop, but came down feeling lost.
Lin Lin’s depressed look was so obvious that Orion, who was patrolling, showed a worried expression when he saw her.
"Miss Lin, have you encountered any trouble?" Orion asked.
As soon as Lin Lin looked up, she saw the Death Knight, who would never fade away as long as its grave was not disturbed.
It was ominous, so very ominous! This guy had a longer life than she did!
"I’m fine, thank you," Lin Lin said calmly as she moved away from Orion, afraid that the sparks from his ghostly flames might jump onto her and turn her into an undead.
Lin Lin ran into Your Majesty the Demon King around the corner.
Lin Lin’s heavy heart also worried the Demon King.
"I do have some worries," Lin Lin frowned, having forgotten about the cold war with the Demon King, "I might live for two or three hundred years."
The other person did not speak.
Lin Lin suddenly looked up, her gaze sharp as she stared at him, focusing on his handsome face.
Lin Lin, "Did you smile?"
Demon King, "No."
Lin Lin showed a doubtful expression, "Why do I feel like the corners of your mouth are sneaking a laugh?"
Demon King looked serious, "No."
Demon King, "Ha!"
