Chapter 899 (1/1)
The evening wind from behind pulled up the hood behind the grey robe, covering one of the black hairs of the cheese. Cheese hasn't had a haircut for some time. Recently, he always ties his hair in the back of his head with straw rope, so he doesn't often wear a hood. As for why not just cut the hair in the way, it is mainly because the mage has his own consideration. In the eyes of casters, hair is a kind of property. Many magic and witchcraft materials or media need hair. It seems that hair is more special than other hair on human body. However, like other magic media from living beings, although hair does not decay in a short period of time, it will lose its vitality soon after leaving the host's body. Therefore, the best way to preserve hair is to keep it on its head. Of course, not everyone's hair is fixed in its place by magic just like the mage.
”Is it really necessary for us to travel at night? Although I also want to leave shale soon, it will make narin unable to find me Batu said reluctantly. When talking about Shaler, he looked behind him with fear, as if he was afraid of something terrible to catch up with. During his stay in Salle, the boy saw too many things he had not seen. Who let him be the guide of the grey robed mage. But even so, Batu was more worried about his eagle. Narin couldn't fly at night, so Batu had to let him find a place to rest and come back to him tomorrow.
”Don't complain about it. ATA has been carrying you for so long without seeing what she said. Are you still a man?” Cheese with a bit of a mockery of the meaning of the answer, while reaching out to be blown by the wind hood down. The wind is coming from the direction of Salle. There is something special in the wind. The mage sensed the smell, but did not say anything. At the end of the day, the shales are their own business. The cheese makers have neither the mood nor the time to take care of them. The safety of Lothar is his priority now.
”I just Batu wanted to refute the mage, but he noticed the absent-minded expression on the face of the female swordsman walking beside him, and then he swallowed it again. After the three men had gone further, the boy was worried and asked, ”are you ok? Are you tired? It doesn't matter. I can carry you on my back! ”
Cheese glanced at him without saying anything. Of course, the mage knew that ATA's condition was not due to fatigue. In fact, the lady's physical fitness was comparable to that of Rosa. What bothered the Swordswomen was their conversation on the hillock before, and the memory between clarity and vagueness that was still in her mind. But it doesn't have to be said, does it? Sometimes the most difficult problems can be solved by seemingly unrelated methods, and so are worries. Instead of entering her troubles, it is better to pull her out of the trap of troubles.
”Ah, I, I'm fine. Thank you ATA blinked and gave Batu a smile. The latter's spirits were lifted up and his walking momentum was a little more than before.
”Well, what a shallow fellow. Ms. atalante is obviously prevaricating, but you really regard it as nothing. Are you concerned? So I said, ”human beings, especially human males, are creatures that don't understand anything and only live in their own imagination.” The sharp and sarcastic voice made baturu hit by lightning. The boy who was denounced immediately turned his head and looked at cheese, because there were only three of them here. Besides ATA, it was the grey robed mage who would make such sarcastic remarks. However, like Batu, cheese now has a blank look.
But ATA seemed to remember something. She began to search the grass around with the moonlight and starlight. Sure enough, a black shadow passed by her hand and stopped in the space between them. It was a black cat, or, it looked like a black cat. He had the body of a cat, the size of a cat, the hair and ears of a cat, and a tail. His fur was black, and only a large amount of white hair was on his chest. But apart from that, he doesn't look like a cat at all. The proud black cat landed on the ground with backward feet. On both feet, he was wearing exquisite deer leather boots. Besides, he was wearing a white shirt with collar to the abdomen and tassel decoration on the collar and cuff. Besides his shirt, the black cat was wearing a red leather coat with two rows of gold buttons, but now he didn't close it, he just tied it up with a belt around his abdomen. It is worth noting that he still has a thin sword pinned to his belt. For human beings, this sword can be regarded as a long needle, but it is still very suitable to hang on the cat's waist.
The cat, dressed like a human and speechless, with a narrow brimmed hat decorated with green feathers, bowed gracefully to atalante, like an actor on the stage of a theater. ”I'm overjoyed to see you safe and sound, my dear lady. Please forgive me for coming to you now. But don't worry, I swear in the name of the king that you will not be threatened again with me. ”
”Evil, evil!” Batu was obviously frightened by this strange creature. He stepped back a few steps and put his hand on his knife handle, looking as if he wanted to draw a knife but didn't dare.
Cheese did not have such a big response. After a brief surprise, he immediately realized the identity of the cat like creature in front of him, the cat goblin. People in some places also call them Puss in boots or cats in clothes according to their appearance, but in fact, these creatures that look like cats are not cats. They really belong to a kind of goblin, and they are still a few Goblins who communicate with each other in the goblin Kingdom and the world like the yew people. They even had their own king, the object of the black cat's oath. Moreover, the king of the cat goblin is not equal to the goblin king, but since the cat goblin is indeed a part of the goblin, so the king of the cat goblin will submit to the goblin king, and the relationship between them is like the Lord of a fiefdom and the monarch of a sovereign state. However, the elves really value appellation too much, so they insist on calling their leader king. Other goblins don't care, they are just a name.”KAILAS, is that you?” ATA some surprise and some uncertain asked, she squatted down to make her eyes better and the cat goblin four eyes.
”It seems that you remember me. Oh, there is no more honor than that.” The cat was very polite, but his eyes were as happy as a swordswoman. Then he was picked up by ATA and began to turn around. ”Ma'am, I'm as happy as you are, but can you put me down first? I'm a little dizzy.”
ATA did not put down the spirit she called KAILAS, but stopped spinning and held the latter in front of her chest. As you can see, she was really very happy. ”To introduce you, this is KAILAS, my childhood cat. Oh, no, it's my childhood friend!”
