Chapter 325: Item from Ancient Times

Translator: Nyoi-Bo StudioEditor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

Recently, Fina was quite satisfied with her quiet and trouble-free days. She could enjoy meals on time and sleep soundly without being bothered by noisy birds. But sometimes she felt quite pathetic that she was contented so easily — after all, she once lay on the sacred throne of the Goddesses. In the current buzzwords, someone would doubt whether Fina was the real Fina Paris XIII.

However, she didn’t even bother to think about the reason she felt satisfied easily. She just wanted to use those times to take a nap, hoping to see her owner’s face again while half-asleep.

Today was another quiet day, Fina climbed on the highest rack of the cat tree and narrowed her eyes to take a nap. Since the pet shop had been refurbished, the cat tree set against the wall also had a new look. Each rack was not only made from a piece of wood, but a washable cotton pad was added on top, which made Fina feel very comfortable and warm when lying on it. There was also an interlayer of the cotton pad, according to the man called Guo Dongyue, where a heating pad could be placed within it, so that Fina wouldn’t feel cold on the freezing days.

Fina admired such a careful man, feeling that he had the potential to become a good servant, unlike Zhang Zian, who made her very angry. Zhang Zian actually thought Guo Dongyue’s improvement to the cat tree was unnecessary, because he was the one who had to wash the cotton pads in the end…he only shut up after Fina found him intolerable and showed him her claws.

Fina looked outside through the window, where the cold winds were blowing and made everything extremely melancholy. Going outside was the last thing she wanted to do in such weather.

Fina had never experienced such a cold winter, and she heard that the coldest time hadn’t even arrived yet. But Fina was still looking forward to the snow. She had never seen what snow looked like before, but figured it could never be worse than rain.

Fina yawned. As her dangling tail moved slightly, she felt as though some warm air was spraying around the end of her tail. If Fina guessed correctly, it was Snowy Lionet who had seized the opportunity to approach her tail, sniffing and sticking out its tongue like a dog. Fina swung her tail like she was getting rid of flies.

Hearing some noises outside the shop, Fina slightly opened her eyes and glanced at the situation. After saying something to a girl, Zhang Zian demanded Wang Qian and Li Kun, who Fina considered the servants of her servant, to go out and move things.

She closed eyes for lack of interest. Ever since buying a princess bed for Fina, Zhang Zian hadn’t brought home any decent things that deserved her attention.

The automatic glass door was really useful. Wang Qian and Li Kun were holding the heavy statue with four hands and without pushing the door, it had opened automatically. They didn’t know where to put this extremely heavy statue, so they just put it behind the door to get out of the way.

Gently putting it on the ground, the two of them were also very curious about this statue. Since their Master was still outside, they squatted down to observe it carefully and even pulled out their cellphones to take a few photos.

Half-awake, Fina had heard the noises made by them but was too lazy to open its eyes, until she sniffed the touch of a familiar smell that came from ancient times like she did.

Fina suddenly opened her eyes, stood up on the rack of the cat tree with her tail turning tight, and saw the statue of the Cat Goddess.

At the same time, Snowy Lionet, who was gazing at Fina’s tail affectionately, was also aware of the appearance of the strange smell in the air. Not sure what it was exactly, Snowy Lionet just felt there was some source of disturbance permeating the pet shop that made it restless. Snowy Lionet was indeed a cat, but it was merely an imaginative Elfin rather than a real cat, so the influence by the statue upon it was relatively minor.

Yet, Old Time Tea was different.

As soon as the cat statue was moved into the shop, from its intuition as an experienced warrior, Old Time Tea had sensed some sort of existence that possessed the power of suppressing things, which even aroused Old Time Tea’s warrior spirits to fight against it.

While Wang Qian and Li Kun were squatting and observing the statue, Fina jumped in front of them, glancing at them with her fierce eyes and looking very serious. They were surprised by her sudden appearance, so they stood up and took a few steps back.

Old Time Tea also arrived in front of the statue vigilantly besides Fina, so that it and Fina could render assistance to one another if anything happened.
