Don't confiscate my identity as a human race-Chapter 1196 - 799: The Surprise Sigrid Left for Lanci
The starlight and the silver moonlight shone through the skylight, coupled with the flames from the fireplace, the room was quite bright.

The two facing each other on the principal's office chair paused their conversation briefly.
"You've always been unique."
Lanci gazed at her, his expression unchanged as he answered.
"..."
Sigrid stared at Lanci for a while, her cheeks starting to redden as she listened to his sincere words, then she averted her gaze, not daring to make eye contact with him any longer.
After a long time.
Their words seemed more unintentional than intentional.
His eyes, sincere yet fatal.
"Hmph, you got off easy this time."
Sigrid muttered resentfully to herself.
Lanci's response meant that she didn't need to be compared to any other woman.
He really was very cunning, mentioning no other women when asked about them, saying only what she wanted to hear.
Sigrid couldn't tell if Lanci was like an impenetrable wall, or if he was simply being plain and genuine.
She had wanted to ask Lanci whether he preferred her or Hyperion, a question that was like courting death.
But it seemed like he had anticipated it all.
"I'll have a chance to meet Miss Thalia soon. I owe her my personal thanks for taking care of my Saint Heir for so long and for cultivating such a talented person."
Sigrid spoke with a victor's air, nonchalantly.
"Wait, she's not as simple as you think..."
Lanci realized the complexity of the problem.
Just the thought of Sigrid and Talia's past interaction as virtual mother and daughter made it impossible for Lanci to imagine what would happen when the two met without their disguises.
That "Mom" Sigrid had called earlier was still echoing in his head, buzzing through his mind.
"Alright, no need to speak anymore about that old woman, probably good for nothing but her looks; I can't muster any interest in her at all."
Sigrid waved her hand arrogantly, cutting off Lanci's words.
She didn't want to continue discussing this Female Demon with Lanci.
She didn't even consider the Female Demon as a rival.
"..."
Lanci was silent.
No, you are very interested in her.
You were practically inhaling her scent.
He was now somewhat afraid to tell Sigrid about the Fake Calila matter, fearing both of them would be socially dead.
But it wasn't a big issue. After all, Talia and Sigrid didn't recognize each other in this life, and there wasn't any chance of them meeting in the current world. Each was on one side of the North and South Continent, and Lanci had plenty of time to deal with the urgent matters of the Cerryti Empire before handling the less urgent interpersonal issues.
Master Lan has always been an expert at defusing bombs.
"In front of me, you are only allowed to talk about Xiu Bao since I like her so much, too."
Sigrid said magnanimously,
"Besides, she is like a sister to you, right?"
She followed up with a forceful question.
"Even her mother is like a sister to me..."
Lanci shifted his gaze, jokingly.
"Hyperion's mother? Didn't both her parents go missing? Did you find them?"
Sigrid's attention was drawn to Lanci's enigmatic words, intrigued by the mysterious figure,
"Is her mother also cute?"
Sigrid began to inquire about Hyperion's family background.
"I can't judge that. You'll know when you meet her."
Lanci shook his head as he replied.
This was a typical trap question. It seemed to be about family affairs, but the key lay in "also" and "cute." If he answered, it would be like admitting to Sigrid's face that Hyperion is cute, while also admitting that another girl, Hyperion's mother, is cute.
"I'm not even sure what auntie likes. I need to prepare a gift for when we meet next time."
Sigrid pondered seriously, already planning how to act the part of the good classmate and sweet girl around Hyperion.
"Anything is fine, she's quite sociable and outgoing, completely opposite to Hyperion."
Lanci said with a shrug, a bit regretful.
Mother Hu really does need Sigrid's blood.
If Sigrid could bring some Wolf Blood to Isatia as an antidote, Isatia might be moved to tears.
Unfortunately, Sigrid is too far away. For now, obtaining Wolf Blood from Violet, the Sixth Army God of Aqua Jade Throne, seems more realistic in the short term.
"That's great. When I get to Ichrite, I want to visit her house often. Not only to get close to her but also to her family."
Sigrid spoke of her seamless younger sister plan.
When the time comes, Hyperion would find a girl who looks a lot like Siegler transferring to Ichrite Academy, constantly evoking Hyperion's past memories, making her fantasize that this girl is Siegler.
"Hisss—"
Lanci, hearing Sigrid's plans, also recalled a serious issue.
Sigrid and Hyperion.
If these two meet again in this life, wouldn't Hyperion be thrown into turmoil?
Is this girl her favorite sister Siegler or her least favorite Bishop of Hegemony, Sigrid?
She can't tell the difference!
"Don't meddle in the relationship between us sisters, whether we love or fight each other, you're not allowed to interfere. It's our own matter."
Sigrid warned Lanci as if she saw that he might reveal her identity as Sigrid to Hyperion.
It would be unfair to her if Lanci unilaterally told Hyperion of Sigrid's secret.
She would never pry into Hyperion's secrets from Lanci either.
"..."
Not girlfriends.
