Don't confiscate my citizenship

On the horizon, the morning sun was rising higher and higher. The sunlight filtered in through the gaps in the wooden railings of the balcony and fell on Lan Qi, making his shadow long.

There was a comfortable wicker chair on the balcony, and a half-read book on the glass coffee table next to it. The floral-scented breeze floated by, caressing Lan Qi's cheek, as if trying to blow away his sleepiness.

Lan Qi, it's time to take the card-making exam. Stop worrying about your animal friends.

The beloved poet held the watering can, looked at the clock in the living room, and looked at Lan Qi who was still squatting on the ground leisurely feeding the birds beside him, and couldn't help but kick him in the back.

I know, it's still early, I won't be late.

Lan Qi rubbed his eyes sleepily.

Although she often lets the poet out and gets acquainted with her, her attitude towards herself is becoming more and more casual now.

Sometimes I don't feel that she is a girl at all. In fact, the poet's behavior is very boyish.

Go ahead, Lan Qi, and show your sealing skills to the people of the capital. The representative figure of sealing skills is Bishop Nirvana. It makes no sense!

The poet of great love grinned in the morning sun.

Yes, the sealing technique should also be warm and sunny, and it is definitely not a dark spell like Askesan.

Lan Qi smiled with relief, stood up and stretched with all his strength.

Soon, the poet of great love lifted the summoning state on his own, and Lan Qi was ready to go.

Stepping through the early morning dusk at the door of the dormitory of Sage Academy, Lan Qi walked slowly on the campus road with a faint smile on his face.

With a peaceful face, he was bathed in the pale golden sun, and his temperament became increasingly sunny.

Today is the day of the registered card maker exam, and it is also the weekend. There are no classes or student union activities.

A month passed by in a flash, and during that period it was all ordinary daily life.

In addition to going to the student union and smoothly handling minor disputes on campus, Lan Qi spent most of his time looking for Talia or staying in the dormitory to make cards.

Although he is still not confident enough to pass the exam, after training with Talia's demon teaching method and finding the type of magic that suits him best and practicing hard, Lan Qi believes that he is better at making spiritual magic cards than before. The cards are much stronger.

He got up early this morning and went to the Card Creators Association branch in the royal capital of Ikerita to take the registration exam.

The higher your registered card maker status is, the more favorable discounts you will get when purchasing various conventional and rare materials from the Card Makers Association.

It can even be dispatched and shipped from other countries in the Southern Continent.

Moreover, the handling rates for selling cards and accepting named commissions will also be very low.

In addition, the Card Makers Association is also a good place to purchase high-quality materials.

If he was trading as a merchant like Lan Qi before, some high-level materials could only be sold to the association but not purchased from it.

The association has been working hard to crack down on cheating and cheating horses.

Not far from the dormitory building of the Sage's Court, Lan Qi saw Hyperion sitting quietly waiting for him on a circle of wooden seats under the big tree.

Good morning, Hyperion!

Lan Qi waved his hand and shouted.

Hyperion quickly noticed him and tilted her head.

Well, good morning.

The two met at the agreed meeting place and then walked towards the Card Creators Association.

Hyperion had already agreed with Lan Qi that she would go to the Card Creators Association with him today.

She is one of the few people in the school who knows that Lan Qi is a card maker, and she has always wanted to take a look at Lan Qi's card making process.

Leave the school area.

They strolled through the quiet early morning streets, along the stone road next to the Icerite Theater, crossed the canal from the stone bridge, and saw the Yala Moat's water surface shining with rugged gold under the morning light.

Lan Qi, do you know that you have become somewhat famous in the capital recently?

The two of them were walking and chatting as usual.

Is there such a thing?

Lan Qi had no idea that his deeds had spread out from Icerita College.

During this time, he devoted himself to card making and spent most of his time in school.

After leaving the school area, go to the Cat Boss Restaurant not far to the east to find Thalia.

Although our images of the Demonic Shadow World have not been made public, they are becoming more and more exaggerated as they spread...

Hyperion sighed.

She thought it would be better if there were images.

It is precisely because there is no image that it is imagined and passed down by word of mouth. It is estimated that every time it passes by a person, it will change to a different version. In the end, each version becomes extremely abstract.

Tell me, what's going on?

Lan Qi asked curiously.

The most outrageous version at the moment is that even if you, Principal Lan, are burdened with Purgatory, you have to hold the Corridor Academy with one hand and face the Blood Prince, and you are still invincible.

Lan Qi almost choked on his saliva when he heard it.

He coughed several times and said, No one really believes it, right?

Hyperion shook her head:

Anyway, many residents of the royal capital are very happy to spread the word. Some young parents even use this story to scare their disobedient children: If you don't become a good and well-behaved child, Principal Lan will take you to the Demon Academy for reform.

I……

Lan Qi was speechless for a moment.

Obviously, in this shadow world, he preaches positive energy such as love, peace and moral order.

How can it become a dark fairy tale?

It's really terrible to spread rumors.

Okay, okay, don't worry about it, everyone knows the story is tongue-in-cheek.

Hyperion smiled helplessly.

Although she knew that the story was 30% true and 70% false, she still saw Lan Qi's confusion at the moment.

Lan Qi heard this.

He nodded deeply.

Then he said firmly:

Yes, as long as I work harder next time, I will definitely make everyone appreciate the positive energy I preach.

...

Hyperion hesitated to speak.

I always felt that it would be better if I didn't say that sentence just now.

…

About half an hour later.

The two arrived at the Southern Continent Card Makers Association located near the Erica Magic Tower and Hutton Pedestrian Square east of the royal capital of Icerita.

It was different from the simple-style Card Creators Association branch that Lan Qi saw in the border territory of South Wantina.

This magnificent postmodernist building in the Icerite branch of the royal capital was built ten years ago. The Icerite Municipal Government is responsible for the execution of its project. It is not far away from the neoclassical Southern Continent Movie World Management Association Building. In stark contrast, separated by Hutton Pedestrian Square, the two buildings are aligned on an axis.

The city grid of Icerite is referenced on the glass walls of the Royal Capital Cardmakers Association branch and reflects the landscape of Hutton Pedestrian Square.

As soon as they walked in through the waterfall illusion door that automatically opened to welcome them, they saw the streamlined passage and forest gallery inside. Just from the design style, you can see that it incorporates the humanity, geology, and history of Ikerite Elements such as research, paleontology, magical engineering, and sociology.

What time does your exam start?

Walking inside the building along the clear road signs, Hyperion turned her head and asked.

Nine o'clock, there is still plenty of time, we can take a walk first.

Lan Qi estimated that it was probably early eight o'clock now.

We have all upgraded. We can also see if there are any new cards that can be purchased before the next Shadow World.

okay.

Hyperion nodded.

She knew that Lan Qi's Error Cure series of magic cards were all purchased from the Card Creators Association.

This kind of useless card that ordinary people will not use can be successfully obtained without spending a lot of money.

If you have nothing to do, if you search around a lot, you might be able to find a bug-healing spell card with better effects.

However, recently it seems that the entire Hutton Kingdom's Wrong Cure series of magic cards have begun to increase in price slightly.

Gradually, some people discovered that this kind of waste card, which was originally used for decomposition, could be used to disgust the opponent.

Although it has no real effect, it can really improve the mentality.

Hyperion knew that it must be the teacher from the Sage Academy who understood this usage, and then imitated Lan Qi to play with it, and gradually began to spread this trend.

Although they can't tell anyone because of Dean Loren's ban, the teachers all know that the price of this kind of card will increase significantly in the future, and the smart ones are stocking up.
