Chapter 94: Women Are Capricious
Daisy’s suggestion to "bring back a human" did not get Lin Lin’s approval, but Lin Lin felt she really needed some care from human society.
She always felt that if things continued like this, she would become more and more like the monsters, but remain a misunderstood oddity among humans.
How frustrating! Although she was never the life of the party, she was always a person with charm who was well-liked.
Lin Lin secretly added some impressive labels to herself.
Lin Lin bought some popular music, books, and even started to wander into human towns, chatting with the residents there.
Unfortunately, to avoid being mistaken for a witch, Lin Lin needed to drink a potion to change her appearance, but after changing, she ended up looking like a half-human hybrid. In any case, no matter how she changed, the final result was not good.
People still prefer to interact with their own kind.
Lin Lin’s strange behavior caught the attention of others in Demon King Castle.
Lin Lin had been too lazy to go far before; she let others buy things for her. Now, her going out seemed very unusual.
After Your Majesty the Demon King asked Lin Lin not to visit vampires for her own safety, Lin Lin spent a lot of time doing her own things, locking herself in her bedroom and getting lost in her own world.
Felix had heard low, lovely male singing from inside Lin Lin’s bedroom more than once, even a radio play.
In any case, everything was very strange.
While Lin Lin was out buying books again, a small emergency meeting was held inside Demon King Castle.
"If you really have nothing to do and keep bothering me, I will cut the phone lines to your home and Demon King Castle," Safir said in a calm voice.
Sapphire Dragon attended this meeting by phone, and Safir, disturbed in his private space, was very unhappy.
In fact, after the hot spring business got better, more and more visitors from different races came to the Dragon race territory. Even though the hot spring was located on the edge of their land, it still made Safir quite unhappy.
The Dragon race does not like noisy places and everything they cannot control.
Speaking of things they cannot control, Safir thought of Lin Lin.
She had once sent him a letter asking about magic related to time and space travel. Even though Lin Lin asked in a careful and vague way, Safir could still guess that she was making plans for herself.
There is nothing shameful about that; Safir even thought he should encourage her to seek her own interests.
However, Safir really did not understand magic related to time and space, and… he thought such spells were too evil.
It is a bit funny that a race seen as evil also has dark magic they don’t want to touch.
The orderly Sapphire Dragon believes that following the natural course of things is the right way, and any deliberate changes can bring disaster, so Safir did not reply to Lin Lin.
And it seemed that Lin Lin was not disappointed for not receiving a response.
This made Safir feel a bit uneasy.
Safir didn’t know if Lin Lin had never hoped for anything from him or if she was silently protesting.
At that moment, Safir actually missed when Lin Lin would stand in front of him, hands on her hips, and tell him not to try to teach her.
"Safir? Teacher?" The Demon King’s words pulled Safir’s attention back from the other end of the phone.
"I’m listening," Safir replied, his voice steady.
No one doubted that the calm Sapphire Dragon would lose focus; the Demon King just assumed the phone signal was bad.
A small meeting room with three serious and solemn men.
"We just talked about Lin Lin’s recent unusual behavior, including her liking to read romance books, listening to music sung by men, and her constant outings," Your Majesty the Demon King showed a heavy expression.
Felix also looked very serious, "It’s that, right?"
The Demon King clasped his hands together and said, "It should be that."
Safir, on the other end of the line, sighed softly, "Is it really that?"
Orion, who felt out of place even when sitting among a few people, looked at the others in confusion and asked in a husky voice from inside his helmet, "What is that?"
Since this meeting started, he found it very strange, and discussing Miss Lin Lin’s behavior behind her back made Orion quite uneasy.
He felt that if Miss Lin Lin knew they held a meeting because of her, she would surely be angry; the other three were already experts at upsetting Lin Lin, but he was still innocent. Orion felt a desire to escape from troubles that he shouldn’t have to deal with.
What if Miss Lin Lin’s impression of him got worse?
After Orion asked his question, Felix leaned back in his chair with an amused expression, thinking that Orion was pretending not to understand, or that the guy who had become a skeleton also had his mind turned into a ghost.
"It’s the mating season," the Dark Elf openly stated. The Dark Elf was one of the races that enjoyed physical pleasure. "The annual mating season, but I thought humans had it in spring. I didn’t expect it to be in winter. That’s quite special."
Orion paused for a few seconds, quite sure that if the content of this meeting reached Lin Lin’s ears, none of them would survive.
Orion really wanted to escape from this table.
"This time is indeed very hard," Your Majesty the Demon King even started to show his gentle side, "We should prepare more blankets for her, so she can make a nest."
"Let’s kill all the men she is interested in." Safir said calmly.
"Huh?" Felix replied lazily, waving his hand, "How many people do we have to kill? Lin Lin will find out."
Orion felt that the discussion at this little table was getting more dangerous.
Orion decided to run away, "I’m going to the bathroom."
Felix casually lifted his chin and locked eyes with the Death Knight, "Sorry, No. You can’t use that excuse to escape the meeting in your current body that doesn’t eat or drink."
Orion’s escape failed.
Being the only former human at the table, Orion looked at the Demon King, who rested his chin on his hand, and Felix, who had his arms crossed on the chair.
Orion made a loud statement, "Humans do not have a mating season."
The other three people at the meeting fell silent.
Orion said, "If Miss Lin Lin really has the condition you mentioned, then it is more likely that she has fallen in love, meaning she has a special liking for a certain man."
"Click." The teacup on the small table made a soft sound, caused by the magical vibrations.
Felix turned to look at His Majesty the Demon King, the source of the commotion.
The young man of the demon race lowered his hand from his chin, and the violet color of his eyes deepened a bit.
"Kill that man," His Majesty the Demon King said calmly.
This time, Safir and the Demon King, the teacher and student, made a very similar judgment.
Orion thought: If there is already a specific person involved, killing him would surely be noticed right away.
"Lin Lin will find out," unexpectedly, the Dark Elf’s opinion matched Orion’s thoughts.
Orion felt relieved that there was a moderate faction in the Demon King Castle, even though it seemed odd to think of the Dark Elf as part of the moderate group.
Felix chuckled softly, looking at the Demon King, "I remember Lin Lin likes male humans, right? They’re just humans, and we can afford to let Lin Lin have some fun with them."
Orion withdrew the hope he had for Felix just a moment ago.
The Dark Elf tried to convince the Demon King with their race’s reasoning, "Women are fickle; we need to please her so she thinks we are good."
Even the Demon King began to notice something strange about Felix’s views.
Safir, who usually disagreed with Felix, scoffed mockingly, "You haven’t even won the favor of a single female Dark Elf, yet you want to share your terrible experiences?"
Yes, among the Dark Elves, males like Felix, who are very opinionated and always trying to rise above, are not well-liked.
That statement hit Felix right in his sore spot.
Felix tugged at the corner of his mouth, "Yeah, but at least I have spent some time in human towns, unlike some people who only keep company with lizards."
Your Majesty the Demon King, with little experience with women and no contact with humans, slowly sipped his tea, showing a face without joy or sadness, while arrows of others’ arguments pierced his heart.
It hurt, so much it hurt, but the Demon King could not open his mouth, or else the flames of war might come to him.
Orion really wanted to escape from this table; it was too noisy here. The Death Knight temporarily took off his head.
–
So strange, really so strange.
Lin Lin, who was shopping in the town, had already become a lucky person for the third time.
Whether it was buying things, winning a lottery, or going out to eat, she always seemed to find all kinds of benefits lately.
Even though they were small benefits, like getting free food and drinks, a 50% discount on a book she wanted, or receiving a free music record during a promotion, they were still experiences Lin Lin had never had before.
If it weren’t for the fact that there are no lottery tickets here, Lin Lin would definitely go and get one.
With the mindset of not letting a good deal slip away, Lin Lin decided to go out more often before her luck ran out, hoping to encounter more good fortune.
Books and records were piling up in her room from buying and receiving, and Lin Lin started thinking about giving some to Donna, since she loved reading human novels so much.
Holding a Demon King Castle bubble tea in her hands, Lin Lin decided to check the town center again to see if there were any new comics.
Meanwhile, the God of Light church stood quietly.
Although it is a church, it is located in a bustling area because many humans believe in the God of Light.
The elderly priest slowly walked out of the church door, nodding and smiling at the worshippers who bowed to him.
It was time to send qualified children to the sanctuary again.
The selection of qualifications had changed from once a year, to once every two years, and now to once every three years. Even though no one dared to say it in front of their superiors, everyone knew that there were fewer and fewer qualified children.
It has been several months since the sanctuary has been buzzing with excitement, but what they are actually doing is something the priests in such a small town have no right to know.
Among the children the priest recommended, only one of them had barely acceptable talent; the other two were just filling in the numbers.
The priest clasped his hands together and prayed to the God of Light.
In the last two days before the deadline, he hoped the divine power would show him more talented children, so that the kids from his town would not be left out.
He opened his eyes.
He saw a half-human woman who was carrying a cup of milk tea in one hand and a bundle of novels in the other, passing by the street.
She sparkled all over, as if the sunlight was eagerly gathering around her, surrounding her in the center.
The priest rubbed his eyes.
