Don't confiscate my identity as a human race-Chapter 1240 - 808: Talia’s Mom Won’t Dream of Baby Siegler
11:30 AM.
Saint Kray Temple.
The architectural style of the campus is strikingly different from that of the Northern Kingdom, with marble towers and flying buttresses found everywhere. The main areas are punctuated by verdant tree-lined pathways, and a clear stream babbles by, its sound reaching the courtyards of the residential area.
In Professor Landry's living room, near the floor-to-ceiling windows overlooking the garden, an antique-style dining table is laden with mail that he has just collected from the school's maintenance department.
At this moment, the young-looking professor is dressed in a refined suit, with his shirt cuffs revealing a stretch of slender wrists.
"Meow meow."
Cat Boss lies nearby, watching Lanci read the content.
After returning to the Saint Kray Temple mansion from the Void Gate restricted area, he did not take a break and started to look through the mail and newspapers at the dining table.
Lanci's fingers glide across the paper, his eyebrows furrowing and relaxing from time to time.
It is a little while later.
Outside the window, the leaves rustle gently in the breeze, with the occasional goldfinches settling on the branches, chirping happily.
Footsteps echo from the staircase on the first floor of the mansion.
Lanci puts the newspaper down, sips his coffee beside him, and looks towards the staircase.
A silver-haired, golden-eyed woman with her hair tied up into a bun at the back of her head appears, with a few stray strands gently gracing the sides of her cheeks and neck.
She is now dressed in a white shirt and a fitted black suit skirt, looking very professional.
She stands at the top of the stairs, giving Lanci an icy stare.
"..."
Lanci glances at her with a puzzled look and then dismissively shifts his gaze away.
"How dare you look at your master like that? Come and pay your respects to me."
The silver-haired and golden-eyed beauty speaks up.
"You're lacking by seven hundred and ninety-nine years."
Lanci shakes his head and chuckles.
This tasteless little girl trying to play Talia is just as ridiculous as Talia pretending to be the Great Love Poet.
After having decided on the groceries to order when they got home earlier, Talia said she would change her clothes upstairs before coming down to cook.
But when she comes down again, it's Lan Fu who appears.
It seems the two of them have rarely separated again.
But upon reflection, they have been merged for over a month this time, suggesting they can separate after a certain amount of time.
"Tsk tsk, the passion has faded, how boring."
Great Love Poet clicks her tongue disapprovingly, realizing that her impersonation of Talia no longer has any deterrent effect on Lanci.
He can now differentiate them at a glance, even though they look like twins.
She doesn't know where she went wrong with her act – she has put on Talia's clothes and even changed into gold-colored contact lenses.
In the past, this could not only scare Lanci, but also put him in the right state of mind when making Magic Cards, making him more focused and helping him enter a flow state.
"Or, have you and her already..."
Great Love Poet squints her crescent-shaped eyes and mischievously sizes up Lanci downstairs and Talia upstairs as if guessing something.
"Lan Fu, don't talk nonsense."
Talia admonishes her from the upper steps with a calm expression,
"It may be inconvenient for you during our time in the Cerryti Empire; continue to sleep for a while longer. After we return to Ichrite, can I let you have fun then?"
She then walks down the stairs, stands on the higher steps, and pats Lan Fu's head.
Great Love Poet is slightly taken aback, as if she didn't expect the initially fierce Talia from Ichrite to treat her so gently now.
"No problem, my existence is meant to bring you happiness, my creator."
Great Love Poet nods, embracing Talia, pledging her loyalty, and not forgetting to make a face at Lanci by sticking out her tongue.
In reality, she has never understood why, even though she should naturally feel close to Talia, who should have been her awakener, her actual Lifebound Contractor turned out to be Lanci.

"Lan Fu, come here. I have something nice to show you."
Lanci ponders for a moment and gestures to Great Love Poet.
He wants her to see the new Life Card he obtained from the Shadow World.
She should be interested in the Natural Magic Cards of the Shadow World.
"Lanci, I don't need you anymore, you're fired. Humph."
Great Love Poet declares boldly upon hearing Lanci's inner voice.
She senses Lanci's disdain for today.
A mere Lanci, she is determined to make him regret deeply. She is, after all, Lanci's greatest Orange Epic Life Card, nothing from the Shadow World could even be compared to her.
Then Great Love Poet dissipates on the spot, turning into an orange, semi-transparent card with a petal imprint in Talia's hand.
Lanci hears this and laughs, shaking his head, his hands resting on the table.
It's the first time he has heard of a Magic Card letting go of its holder.
"It's really good that she listens to you so well."
Lanci looks at Talia and says, not in a hurry to get back Great Love Poet.
After more than a month, he once again felt the relief of being able to voice his thoughts freely.
The Great Love Poet is indeed of little use anymore.
If she wants to stay with Talia, it saves Lanci some trouble.
Lanci is worried that Great Love Poet in the Cerryti Empire may not follow orders, as she has always been a Summon that is not very controllable. The Saint Kray Temple is not like the Hutton Kingdom or the Poseen Kingdom, where Great Love Poet could just go out and play as she pleases.
"If you find her troublesome, I can take care of her for you."
Hearing a part of Lanci's thoughts, Talia is about to return Great Love Poet to Lanci but then stops, looking down at the Magic Card in her hands.
