nce upright posture had become shaky, his hand gripping the wall trembling violently as if he might collapse at any moment.His eyes were wide with terror, unable to believe what he was seeing.What do...Chapter 64: Ranch Overflowing with Positive Energy

Under the warm candlelight, the Maowang Yici restaurant was bathed in a golden glow.

The silver candlestick in the center of the table appeared noble and dignified. The candle flame at its top flickered, reflecting a bright light onto the surrounding tableware. Through the orange-red flames, the air seemed to take on a hint of mystery.

Candlelight flickered, casting dancing shadows on the table. The white tablecloth with its gold trim contrasted beautifully with the dark surface, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere that seemed to melt away worries.

Here's the English translation:"Hyberlian, see I successfully stopped the waste of food."

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Lanchi looked at Huberlian and said, his words full of positive energy.

"……"

Huibalian lowered her head and didn't dare to answer Lanchi's words, she didn't even dare to make a sound.

She worried that when the goddess deducted Lanchi's merit, she would also implicate her who was standing nearby.

No matter what, she was raised as a human in the human world from a young age. Deep down, she still wants to be an individual!

Far away.

After the restaurant manager dealt with the silver-haired demon who had broken the restaurant rules, he hurried over to Lance's side with concerned eyes.

Not a few seconds passed.

"We are very sorry that you had a bad dining experience at our restaurant. We will try our best to give you a satisfactory compensation."

The manager quickly placed a warming demon realm medicinal wine beside Lance and earnestly said to him,

"No... it's not your problem, thank you very much."

Lanche's fingertips trembled slightly as he picked up the glass of wine.

After taking a sip, the state of struggling like being in the snow finally got some relief.

He took a deep breath and looked at the manager again.

"Manager, I'd like to ask if the ingredients from the previous order for the customer with silver hair are still available since his meal wasn't presented in the end. Also, would we have a chance to order some new dishes"

Prior to this, Lance hadn't seen the two limited-time dishes on the Silver Devil menu.

It was obviously the silver-haired demon who ordered first, but he planned to have it as the final dish.

"Of course."

The manager leaned slightly forward, nodding to Lynch.

"Here are these two."

Lanche opened the menu and showed the manager the pages for those two limited-time dishes, then said.

"No problem, and as per the restaurant's custom we also need to compensate you."

The manager took the menu from Lanchi's hand and bowed slightly to both of them.

Lanci watched the manager hesitate for a moment, then sighed.

I think you have no responsibility. If there has to be blame, then it's the one who wastes food recklessly and doesn't cherish the exquisite meals prepared with care by our chefs.

Rance's words held both regret and resignation. Gazing at the corpse of the silver-haired demon,

"Compensation shouldn't have been your responsibility in the first place. This is a restaurant that I am incredibly satisfied with. I like it, and I hope it continues to do well, that's all."

"……"

Let me know if you'd like to translate any other text!

Upon hearing this, the manager remained silent for a moment before finally nodding in acknowledgment and expressing his thanks.

Lan Chi's words made him feel happy and comfortable, and he couldn't help but feel proud and satisfied.

As a restaurant that prioritizes service quality and strictly adheres to the highest standards, they naturally harbor some anger and resentment towards overly demanding customers, even those who look down upon their efforts with a superior gaze like the silver-haired devil.

Such customers who understand the preciousness of food and even savor their meals with appreciation and gratitude, compared to the silver-haired demon, are worlds apart.

"Though wrongs have heads and debts have owners, if it's possible, could you hand over that fellow's body to me I wish to personally bury him and sing a requiem for his soul."

Lance looked down at the silver-haired demon lying motionless on the ground, and continued.

What Ranch truly desires, is still the gold coins bursting from this silver-haired devil.

This hidden monster might have some treasures on its body, as well as a lot of credits.

Of course, no problem. I'll be happy to pack it for you.

The restaurant manager had noticed the music department insignia on Lan Qi's chest and quickly understood what he meant.

He knew that the Music Department had some forbidden summoning magic, and obviously this silver-haired demon was a good candidate.

If this was the only request, the restaurant manager would be happy to agree, and there were even teachers willing to take the body away for them, which would save them a lot of work.

"Sir, we will do our best to provide you with the best service during this meal and hope that you have a satisfactory experience."

The manager bowed to Lanchi and then stepped back.

……

The time that followed seemed to flow at an unusually slow and peaceful pace.

Inside the restaurant, music flowed softly, occasionally punctuated by the gentle clinking of silverware. The faint aroma of cooking drifted from the distant kitchen, leaving an atmosphere of nothing but wonder and harmony.

"Let's eat and drink first, then we'll go count our loot later."

Ranch happily chatted, his fork reaching towards the fresh vegetables, then gently bringing a small piece to his mouth.

What flashed across his face was genuine satisfaction and happiness.

He protected the restaurant's ingredients from being wasted, and the restaurant rewarded him with a large gold coin. Today he did another great deed.

"...."

Huperly looked at Lanchi stealthily. She had something she wanted to say, but couldn't bring herself to speak.

"Ranch, when we get back, let's go to the Goddess' temple and pray together."

Huberly spoke softly.

She felt she needed to repent, and Lance even more so. Things involving sacrifices for merit shouldn't be done too often.

Even if it was for her missing old father, she should cultivate more virtue. That way, perhaps the Goddess would bestow her favor.

From a young age, Brynn had heard that the Goddess loved all beings equally, even demons. As long as they held good intentions, she would guide and redeem them.

"No problem, uh, but this flag is..."

Ranch suddenly realized the danger in Huberlian's words.

>Often, when someone utters such a vow-like phrase, there's a real possibility they might not be able to return to the human world.

But Lan Chi thought to himself: What a good thing! He could actually stay at the Devil Academy without having to go back

Twelve hours is really too short.

How he wished he could truly spend a full student life in this purgatory of a hall!

「……」

Huperlyan lifted her gaze, observing the subtle shifts in Lanchi's expression. She sensed an unusual liveliness within him.

But she doesn't understand.

She didn't know whether this estrangement was because she didn't understand human hearts, or because she didn't understand demon hearts.

After spending time with Lanchi, this very new human, Huberlian often felt confused and even had moments of self-doubt.

She shook her head.

All the merit points have been deducted.

Since things have come to this, let's eat first.

Everyone can speculate in advance about what kind of identity this silver-haired demon, accidentally killed by Ranchi, will have, and what kind of identity Ranchi will eventually have at the end of the Demon Academy ().
