Don't confiscate my identity as a human race-Chapter 1083 - 774 Lanci’s Random Smile_3

Sigrid naturally understood how Lanci felt after discovering several Beastmen City-States along the way.

The Orc Lord of Little Night City had, many years ago, shown kindness to the Blood Clan when the latter were in a weakened state, with many being hunted by the Wolf Clan’s Vampire hunters, barely able to establish themselves in the human kingdoms divided by day and night, and had fled to the Land of Perpetual Night.

Thus, the deepest parts of the Land of Perpetual Night became their best hiding place.

The elderly Lord of Little Night City, seeing the grievously injured Blood Clan, pitied them. Upon their desperate plea, he shared the blood of his hunted snowfield beasts with them, saving many members of the Blood Clan, including what would be the future Eighth Progenitor, Marquis Somerset.

Marquis Somerset had then made a promise to the old Lord to repay this kindness in the future.

Ironically, the Blood Clan’s idea of repaying that kindness was, one day in the future, for Somerset to personally slaughter the entire Rabbit People of Little Night City.

Lanci, having seen several thriving Beastmen City-States along his journey, had no reaction now.

He regained his usual calm demeanor.

However, upon hearing this story, he couldn’t help but laugh helplessly.

When a person smiles for no reason, it’s either from utter boredom or overwhelming distress.

"Are you alright?"

Sigrid sat down next to Lanci again, but this time she did not deliberately sit close to him, instead maintaining a comfortable distance.

If she were Sigrid, she might have hugged Lanci to comfort him, but as she was currently portraying Siegler, it was best to maintain mutual respect.

"It’s nothing, just that during the darkest times of Blood Moon Bad World, I didn’t feel it, but now as we move towards a peaceful era in the light, it makes me acutely aware of the absurdity, yet I don’t know what to say."

Lanci shook his head honestly and laughed again.

But Sigrid’s concerned gaze did not shift nor waver.

She continued to stare intently at Lanci until he began to feel puzzled, leaned back, and rested against the back of the sofa.

"You can’t hide it from me. Even if I can’t read your mind, I can read your eyes," Sigrid declared.

This Shadow World itself didn’t seem challenging; perhaps because Lanci had overdone everything in the first three Shadow Worlds, the last one began to feel like a bonus round.

But Sigrid was certain this Shadow World was the most difficult for Lanci.

His heart rooted in saving everyone, he constantly experienced a lack of power in Black Sun Lankros after realizing that the dust had settled in this era.

Even though his abilities had surpassed those of Black Sun Lankros and he could do better every time, he still couldn’t fight against the entire world’s destiny, just like he couldn’t end the war in the South Continent by his will alone or rescue all suffering creatures.

The more obsessed a creature is, once their obsession shatters, they become more extreme.

No one knew what choice Lankros made at the end of Blood Moon Bad World or how he bowed out.

Sigrid always had a somewhat uneasy feeling.

Because she felt that Black Sun Lankros, at the end of his life, was overwhelmed with negative emotions, just lacking a trigger to set it all off and collapse completely.

Lanci was now undergoing such a process.

[Task Target 1: Read the letter from old friend Calila. (Incomplete)]

[Task Target 2: Understand the mentality of Black Sun Lankros: 4.67%. (Incomplete)]

[Task Target 3: Challenger team to survive until the 21-day limit ends, Time remaining 14 days 02 hours 35 mins.]

As a Challenger, Sigrid could see this panel too, but Lanci didn’t know that yet.

Sigrid had been looking out for Lanci.

Whenever she saw Lanci’s understanding of the Black Sun deepen, she felt empathetic pain, knowing that beneath Lanci’s calm appearance, he wasn’t indifferent; he was pondering, caring, he would be sad, he held grudges.

What Lanci would eventually understand depends on his deeper self.

"If I change, will you wake me up?"

Lanci looked at Sigrid and joked.

He felt it was time to lighten the mood, as this Shadow World was a journey of reminiscence, and it was best for everyone to be happy together.

Even the song playing in the room was telling them not to forget to smile.

"I won’t,"

Sigrid shook her head, her tone uninterested in joking,

"If it’s hell ahead, I’ll go with you. I believe in every decision you make, I won’t let you be alone."

She watched Lanci intently.

"..."

Lanci was dazed for a moment.

Those purple eyes seemed to ask him: Don’t you know me well enough yet?

Just looking at those bright, sharp purple eyes, he was somewhat confused whether this was Siegler or the person he knew from the real world.

However, soon enough, Lanci shook his head.

In the Shadow World, it was impossible for a native projection to suddenly turn into a real person—it must be his imagination running wild, beginning to miss Sigrid subconsciously, making everyone seem like Sigrid.
