I Really Am Not The Lord of Demon

Under the vast starry sky, bonfires were lit one after another.

The witches in black robes surrounded the bonfires and chanted an unknown incantation.

As they chanted, all the bonfires flickered.

They were like candles swaying in the wind.

When the ceremony reached its climax, the witches knelt and offered their treasures to the bonfires.

“Great Father!”

“Almighty Father…”

They prostrated themselves and prayed.

“Please respond to us…”

“Please…”

However, the bonfire extinguished in an instant.

The God they believed in did not appear in front of them.

He did not appear as recorded in the records.

The witches stood up and looked at everything blankly.

They did not understand why?

God did exist.

But God refused to respond!

For two hundred years!

He never showed up! No matter what they did!

The atmosphere instantly fell to the freezing point!

The witches looked at each other. They were all looking for the reason for the failure of this sacrifice.

From their previous experiences, someone had to pay for it!

That was how they do it!

Witches who believe in the God of the Black Feast, if they fail to summon the gods they believe in and follow.

They must suspect that there are heretics and unclean people among them!

So, they decided that the gods will respond only by eliminating the heretic!

“Ladies of the feast…” suddenly, a voice broke the silence.

A man wearing a black robe and a sphinx mask on his head stood among the witches.

“I know the reason why we can’t get a response from our God…”

Then, pairs of eyes stared at him.

“Because we lack guidance!” The man with the sphinx mask said, “We need to find the messenger of God…”

“Only the messenger of God can hold a ceremony for us and summon him correctly!”

“The messenger is in the East!” he said.

“We have found him!”

“Let’s go and welcome him back!”

“Mr. A…” A witch raised her head and looked at the man. “We hope you are right!”

“Otherwise…” she raised her head and showed her sharp teeth. “I will eat you myself!”

“Hehe…” the man laughed.

He raised the scepter in his hand. That was Pharaoh’s scepter!

… … … ..

It was morning.

Ling Pingan opened his eyes and stretched comfortably.

“The quality of sleep is really important!” he said.

Last night, he had a good night’s sleep.

He was not dreaming!

Now, he felt refreshed!

So, he stood up, walked to the bathroom, washed up briefly, and was about to go downstairs.

Meow!

The sound of the kitten, Bastet came from upstairs.

Ling Pingan frowned slightly. “Why did the little fella go upstairs?”

With the doubt in mind, he walked up the stairs.

And so, he saw the little fella’s figure under the slow oven. Who knew what she was playing?

“Bastet!” Ling Pingan shouted.

The little kitten was shocked. With a light tap of her little paw, she hid the unknown thing into the pile of junk.

Then, she turned around and walked to Ling Pingan’s side, meowing.

“Little guy…” Ling Pingan smiled. “I’m not going to check your privacy!”

This little kitten actually knew how to hide things.

That was something Ling Pingan was very happy about!

That meant that the little guy was very smart!

Who would complain that their pet was too smart?

Holding the little guy, Ling Pingan sniffed its body.

“You haven’t showered for a long time…” he said, “But how come your body is so clean?!”

“It even smells like jasmine!” Ling Pingan sniffed its fur and was immediately shocked.

Meow!

The little guy let out a proud purr.

“But!” Ling Pingan stroked its head. “You must bathe on time!”

Therefore, he picked up the little guy and walked downstairs. He went to the bathroom and poured a bucket of hot water for her.

Then, he put her in the basin.

He squeezed a little bit of shower gel and rubbed it on her body.

It was strange. After the little guy entered the water, its fur immediately became smooth.

It felt like milk.

There was a faint fragrance in the bathroom.

It smelled like jasmine and lilies. It was very comfortable.

Ling Pingan always felt like he had smelled it somewhere before.

“Hmm…” he suddenly recalled it. “Doesn’t it smell a little like Aunty’s body?”

So, he squatted down and looked at the kitten sitting in the basin like a princess.

“Little guy…” he asked, “Did you secretly use the perfume in Aunty’s room?”

Meow!

The kitten rolled its eyes at its master.

Ling Pingan also laughed. “That’s right… you’re just a kitten, how can a cat use perfume?!”

“So, this fragrance is the smell of shower gel…”

That was the only explanation!

Soon, the kitten, Bastet finished bathing. Ling Pingan picked up her wet body from the bathtub and placed her on the towel that he had prepared.

He dried her fur.

Then, he found a hairdryer to blow on her.

The kitten that had just bathed looked even cuter.

Especially on its forehead, there was a little bit of silver fur!

Ling Pingan reached out and touched it. It felt soft, and it felt especially good!

So, he couldn’t help but stroke it a few more times!

“I finally know why people like to stroke cats!” He said, “This feels good!”

Meow!

Carrying the cat that had just showered, Ling Pingan walked downstairs, put it on the counter, and opened the shop door.

It was 7:30 in the morning.

The neighbors had already left the house. They were either preparing for work or school.

The streets were bustling with people. It was the busiest time of the day.

Ling Pingan walked to the breakfast shop next door. As usual, he ordered two baskets of steamed dumplings and a bowl of tofu pudding. Then, he held them back to the shop.

He sat down at the counter and turned on the television.

It was still morning news time, but the content of the news had changed.

There was no more international news.

The focus of the news had also changed to the metropolitan territory or the Beisong, Nansong, and Xisong regions.

Moreover, entertainment gossip was starting to appear.

“Recently, a certain celebrity shooed away the passers-by while riding an elevator at the airport, causing public anger…”

“XX’s marriage is unstable. There’s news that XX might want to get a divorce…”

Ling Pingan ate steamed dumplings and listened to the news.

He recalled the news from two days ago.

If it wasn’t the Nanyang Typhoon, then it was the global climate change.

Suddenly, he felt that it was quite good for the news to release such gossip every day!

At least, when the news was filled with scandals about celebrities, it meant that the world was peaceful and nothing happened!

… … … ..

Integral put on the uniform of the Primary School of the Federal Empire.

She stood in front of the mirror and looked at the uniform she was wearing.

“It looks pretty good!” She said. At least it was better than what she had imagined.

“Duchess…” beside her, a diplomat introduced, “The school you are about to enter is the most famous public primary school in Jiangcheng City, the Jiangcheng First Pri..”

“Public?” Integral frowned.

In her impression, the best schools were all private aristocratic schools.

Especially for people like her!

The school she was going to was the top school in the United Kingdom of Britannia. Every student was the descendant of nobles and extraordinary people.

And they were definitely the descendants of great nobles and powerful people!

“Yes…” the diplomat lowered her head and said, “Your Grace, the east is different from our country…”

“They emphasize that the right to education is the basic right of people!”

“In the east, the best schools will always be public!”

“Just like this school that you are about to enter…”

“The principal is a retired colonel of the Blackguard!”

“There are many experts of the blackguard among the teachers!”

“There is news that there was even a major-general of the blackguard who taught part-time in this school!”

That made Integral unable to understand. She asked, “Why?”

“Because the easterners believe that only by ensuring the fairness of education can other unfairness be eliminated!”

“They stubbornly believe that as long as the education problem is solved, the root cause of other problems will be solved!”

“Therefore, ensuring education is their basic national policy. It has been officially implemented for three hundred years!”

“Their first compulsory education law was enacted during the hundred-year war…”

“Emperor Taizong sold his palace and the treasures from the Beizhou, Fusang, and Shilla tributed as the first Education Fund…”

“There is even a legend that in order to promote the education law, the emperor himself took the lead to eat only one meal a day!”

Integral listened and was silent.

After a long while, she said, “It’s terrifying!”

“Yeah!” The diplomat also sighed sincerely. “It’s indeed terrifying!”

Anyone, anyone who had even a little understanding of this country would feel a deep fear from the bottom of their heart!

That was a country that graduated 30 million college students every year!

That was also a country that graduated tens of millions of science and engineering talented beings every year!

If it wasn’t for the sudden recovery of psionic energy.

Making the countries of the Land of Qin gain the ability to fight asymmetrically.

At that moment, no one could say clearly what the world situation was like!

Because it was a well-known fact. At the end of the hundred-year war, this country had already announced that it would raise the four-year compulsory education to six years.

A hundred years ago, it was raised to nine years.

Thirty years ago, it announced twelve-year compulsory education!

For three hundred years, teachers, doctors, and soldiers had always been the most respected group in this country!

The positions of ministers, doctors, and teachers at all levels had always occupied a considerable proportion!

Therefore, in terms of the convention, no one could shake this country’s advantage!

It was because of the recovery of psionic energy that each country had an asymmetric combat ability.

Only then could the world’s situation stabilize!

“Then, let’s go and take a look…” Integral said, “Take a look at this country’s public primary schools!”

… … … … ..

Half an hour later, Integral’s car stopped in front of the school located in the east of Jiangcheng City, near the industrial park.

“My lady, please get off the car…” a servant opened the door and said respectfully, “We have to go to the school on foot for a tour!”

“Why can’t we drive-in?” Integral asked as she looked at the gate of the primary school, which was at least a few hundred meters away from the parking lot.

“In this country, no one can drive into the school!” The diplomat who had been accompanying Integral explained, “Even if the emperor goes to school, he has to go in on foot…”

“This is their tradition!”

“In front of the school, the civil officials get off the sedan chair, and the military officials get off their horses…”

“It’s terrifying!” Integral sighed again.

She got off the car and held the scepter.

Just then, a small black car stopped in front of her.

A young man wearing glasses and carrying a pretty girl also got off the car.

“This is where Ah Ning will go to school from now on!” the young man said happily to the girl in his arms.

“Wow!” the girl’s eyes lit up. “What a big school, it’s so beautiful!”

“You like it, right?” the young man asked with a smile.

“Ah Ning likes it so much!” the girl clapped her hands and jumped to the ground happily.

The small school bag on her back seemed to have the outline of a city at the bottom of the sea.

The young man suddenly sensed something. He turned around and smiled at Integral.

That smile made Integral’s scalp tingled, and her whole body seemed to be frozen.

“Duchess…” the servant beside her quickly asked, “Are you alright?”

“Yes…” Integral came back to her senses.

She finally understood why Alucard didn’t dare to show his face in this land.

Here…

It was too terrifying!

Anyone she met was an unfathomable powerful being!
