Don't confiscate my identity as a human race-Chapter 1157 790: Lanci Got Addicted
"Welcome back."
Talia released Lanci and looked at him as she spoke.
Her voice remained toneless, sounding like a statement.
Each time she saw Phantom Demon walk out from the six-faced cubic Magic Mirror, the state he was in was worrisome; last time, he nearly died, and this time he seemed as if he had experienced a life from ages past. She was very concerned about this Phantom Demon.
"Talia, I'm sorry to have kept you waiting for so long. I really didn't expect using the mirror to take this much time."
Lanci still leaned against the Mirror of Tiberius, looking at tiny Talia at eye level.
"Would you like something to eat? There's one more box left."
Talia pointed to the four-tiered lunchbox placed to one side, asking the Phantom Demon.
Following the Phantom Demon's instructions from noon, she had another box as her lunch and now one box of the Phantom Demon's dessert was left.
"No need, I'll take you directly to the school's Demon King's Restaurant for a proper meal in a while. If you're hungry, feel free to finish that box of pre-dinner sweets."
Lanci said to Talia with a smile.
"..."
Talia was slightly stunned.
She hadn't had such lavish meals recently in Necaris; Calila was often too busy, usually having a Court Ceremony Officer send her meals. Since Calila disappeared and Melogas took over the Demon King Palace, she has been alternating between hunger and fullness.
She actually didn't mind.
As long as she didn't look forward to good food tomorrow, she wouldn't feel uncomfortable because of hunger.
This was also her self-protection.
Yet, following this Phantom Demon, she found herself unconsciously looking forward to what she might eat tonight at the restaurant he mentioned.
"Then if I'm eating well, you should eat well too."
After thinking for a bit, Talia stared at Lanci and said.
"Of course, it's not like I'm letting you win; we surely can afford a meal, right?"
Lanci laughed as he said this.
"Mhm."
Talia nodded her head in relief.
"Talia, let me tell you, the Purgatory Corridor Academy is the most impressive school, guaranteed to be more fun than any amusement park you've been to in Demon King Castle Necaris..."
Lanci needed to rest briefly in the energy room and started chatting with Talia.
This time, Talia did not make an appearance.
Being seen through by Talia as a Fake Calila made Talia extremely embarrassed, and she didn't know how to face Talia.
Being despised by a child was quite a loss of face for a demon.
The pain of death was no longer felt this time, as consciousness stayed in the Void Space too long, and upon reclaiming a body, there was only the sensation of being reborn.
Even if it was just a simulation in the spirit world, Lanci and her felt as if they had experienced Lankros's latter half of life once more.
"It seems that the Mirror of Tiberius truly can help you develop your spiritual power to its limits."
Talia examined Lanci's body with her thoughts and noticed that his spirit had become stronger, reminding him.
After all, the Mirror of Tiberius is an ominous Magic Device that bets on one's life, so it's not surprising that it comes with a small degree of training effect.
However, the Phantasmagoria of the future that normal users can see is not as harsh and painful as the end of Black Sun Lankros.
"I believe the effect of the burden training you've been applying regularly is a bit better."
Lanci responded to Talia in his mind while chatting with Talia.
Recalling when he first gained the Mad Love Demon King, and thinking about now, his spiritual power had indeed become much stronger.
Although everyone's natural Basic Attributes and their growth differ significantly—receiving fixed significant enhancements after advancing—postnatal efforts can also improve the specific Basic Attributes one desires to some extent.

All of this was thanks to Talia being a spirit behind him twenty-four hours a day.
"I'm your teacher; what's wrong with training you?"
Talia was also a bit embarrassed and replied as if it were only natural.
Lanci's Mana was too convenient, allowing her not to feel any exhaustion or illness, a veritable panacea, but she admittedly used it quite a lot.
Now they were back in the Shadow World.
After making sure Lanci's body was fine, Talia glanced at the Shadow World information.
[Mission Objective 1: Read the letter from the old friend Calila; head to Demon World Purgatory City Pasquale & protect the Small Spark left behind by Calila; comprehend the Mirror of Tiberius. (Completed)]
[Mission Objective 2: Understand the mindset of Black Sun Lankros: 39.02%. (Completed)]
[Mission Objective 3: All Challengers must survive until the 21-day time limit is up, remaining time 5 days 04 hours 35 minutes.]
The mission objectives remained unchanged, stopping at comprehending the Mirror of Tiberius.
Talia was not surprised at the improvement in Lanci's understanding of Black Sun Lankros's mindset.
After all, Lanci is not Lankros; even if they are two similar flowers separated by tens of thousands of years, or to simply say that Lanci is the reincarnation of Lankros, they are still vastly different now. It's normal for Lanci to be unable to fully comprehend Lankros's life experiences, and this current level of understanding was already quite high.
Talia was relieved that, from beginning to end, Lankros's spirit never lost itself. He remained steadfast and kind, carrying through his beliefs.
And on this trip to the Phantasmagoria of the future, she and Lanci were trapped in the Mirror of Tiberius for almost seven hours.
The Energy Hub Room underground showed no sign of the outside sky; it was probably around six or seven in the evening in Pasqual by estimation.
After having a body, Talia could even feel hunger.
"Lanci, let's go eat after a short rest."
Talia said to Lanci.
Having stayed in the Void Space of consciousness for so long, just the thought of the Demon World's menu at the Demon King's Restaurant made her stomach grumble with anticipation.
