The firewood in the fireplace crackled, and Marina sat by the fireplace watching the leaping flames. The temperature conveyed from the fireplace dispelled the dampness and coldness on her body, and also reminded her of the fact that she was still alive.

Marina is too old to celebrate like a young man. She has survived so much that she has lost her family and is still alive to fulfill her husband's wish. She has already done her best to end her miserable life in the demon world, but she has survived.

Not only did she survive, God also gave her a new goal and a reason to survive.

"Belle, I'm going to go to the city the day after tomorrow."

Marina turned her head and looked at the girl sitting on the other side of the fireplace. Ino was sitting in front of the fireplace with a book in her hand and flipping through.

There is no such thing as books in this small village. This book comes from some of the only goods that Marina has.

The robber's looting destroyed almost all her property, but there was still a little left, such as a carriage transporting goods and an elderly horse.

Fortunately, Marina carries money with her things. Even if she loses the goods, she still has a real estate in the magic capital Nolan.

As long as people are still alive, life will always be able to continue. Not only does Marina have to live, she also wants to let this girl who likes to study to go to school.

"City? Aunt Marina...will you take me there?"

Ino's eyes turned away from the book and said a sad fact. Ino actually, Ino couldn't understand human words, and she didn't even understand the words of the demons.

She used to live at the bottom of the demon world, let alone studying, and she could only think about living under pressure and harshness every day. Therefore, the book in Ino held in his hand was just to play the role of Qiao Xiu and deceive the human in front of her.

Marina has no doubts so far, and her feelings for Ino are getting deeper and deeper. She has spent the most difficult period of her life together. Although it was only less than half a day, Marina still treats Ino as her daughter.

"Well, but after a while, there will be only two people in the carriage. Don't worry that I will definitely come back to pick you up to live in a big city. Wherever there are libraries filled with books, I will also let you go to a school to learn the knowledge you want."

Marina's servant was still taking care of the old horse and carriage in the stable. With Marina's body, she was no longer suitable to drive the carriage, and she could only rely on the hired servant to help her drive to Nolan.

It takes about three days to get from this small village to Nolan, and two trips will be about nine days.

"Thank you Aunt Marina...I don't know how to thank you."

Ino didn't know where the kindness of the human in front of him came from. She lived in the demon world for so many years, and no one has ever treated her so well.

No... maybe it's just because she's different now, because she's Belle, a beautiful and kind human girl.

If Marina knew her true identity and an inferior succubus would definitely treat her like those people in the demon world, and she would be extremely disgusted with her.

So Ino didn't think too much. She just did the task assigned to her by Qiao Xiu as much as possible. This was the way she could survive as Ino, not the fictional character Belle.

"It doesn't matter to my child. If you can achieve excellent results in school in the future, I will be grateful to me."

Marina has begun to look forward to her future life in Nolan.

Ino is now in a torture, a torment called "being stared at his work by his superiors."

As a succubus, Ino could vaguely feel that Qiao Xiu had entered this room. She could feel Qiao Xiu's sight... The feeling of being watched by the higher demons was so familiar to Ino.

"What's wrong with you, Belle?"

Marina saw the uneasy expression flashing across Ino's face. She thought Ino might have thought of some bad memories, such as the scene where her parents were killed by a robber, so she reached out and put it on Ino's hand.

"nothing."

Ino was slightly stunned, feeling the temperature coming from the back of his hand, and his uneasy mood was instantly relieved under Marina's concern.

This is what is called care? It's really...incredible.

Although Ino knew that everything in front of him was just a mirror and water moon, when Qiao Xiu's mission was over, she would lose everything, but it seemed good to enjoy the only warmth now.

………………………………………

"Is it really good for you to deceive an old man like this?"

Xiri just walked out of Marina's house. It happened to be drizzling outside, and dripping dripping on Xiri's body, washing away all the invisible powder on Xiri's body.

"Doing? As far as you humans are concerned, we demons are specializing in this business."

Qiao Xiu stuffed the camera on his hand and the original crystal stone that had been recorded into the suitcase. With Xiri's help, Qiao Xiu spent nearly an afternoon restoring the shots in the movie.

Although the arrangement of the scene is not satisfactory, it is unrealistic to realize it in this small village, such as a beautiful scene in Disney.

"It seems...it's true."

Xili recalled the human view of the demons. In addition to cruelty and evil, there are also cunning and despicable.

For example, if you hear the whisper of a demon, you are tempted to fall and fall, and Xili has also heard of some rumors, but this is just a matter of hearing.

But today Xili finally saw a real case, so real that she could find a way to write a record, and the name was "The old lady who was deceived by a succubus"?

"And I don't think there is anything wrong with this kind of deception."

Joshu stood on the edge of the forest and looked at the wooden house where Marina lived. He could still hear the voice of Marina and Ino talking.

Judging from the performance of the businesswoman just now, she has indeed regarded Ino as her relative and enjoys this time of talking to her relatives.

And Ino seems to be a bit too far into the role.

Qiao Xiu didn't want Ino to have any real feelings for the businesswoman. This kind of family affection exchanged for deception is as wonderful but deadly as Poppy.

When the shooting was over, the character Belle no longer existed... No...

Why can't it exist?

If the businesswoman could accept Ino's true identity, Joshu wouldn't mind letting Ino live with her.

"Maybe we can develop a business that summons demons in the future."

Qiao Xiu did not think there was anything evil about the rumored ritual of summoning demons. Everyone asked each other for the conditions written in the contract, and in a modern way, they were commercial partners.

It is the rumored price that the summoning ceremony requires sacrifice is that life is too horrifying.

But in reality, human life really has no effect on demons. It cannot be eaten or used to enhance its own strength. So if it is replaced by something more practical...such as money, it will be much easier to accept.

"business?"

Xiri didn't know how many times it was that he heard inexplicable words popping out of Qiao Xiu's mouth.

"The Demon Gang, the Demon Agency, the Demon All-Time House, etc., may also drive the economy of the Demon World and the human world. The slogan is to use 'A summoning array can help you solve all problems.', well... it's just one of my ideas."

This is just a concept of Qiao Xiu, and this concept is based on the premise that humans can trust demons.

It took Qiao Xiu a long time to achieve this goal, but the first step now is to shoot the movie first.

At present, the only plot in the village is Belle's "chorus" with the villagers during the day, but now the time in the human world is approaching dusk, so Qiao Xiu can only continue to shoot this plot tomorrow.

"It's time to go to another set to see what's going on."

The next scene is the most important castle. The imperial city in the Demon Realm is too far from the castle that Qiao Xiu expected, so before the official start of shooting, Qiao Xiu found a more suitable castle on the map of the Demon Realm.
