Chapter 338: The Witch of the Black Cat: Luria
Southbound, Falfner.
There was light snow on the mountain, which was also the first snow in the southern border since winter began.
Snowflakes drifted down from the sky, fell into this vast world, and then slowly melted and disappeared without a trace.
When the night comes, the city on the top of the mountain is dotted with scattered orange lights, showing a bit of warmth and warmth that is not found during the day.
In the tower's room, Roland Hill in a white dress sat on the edge of the bed, quietly looking to the mountains and the city outside the window, neither talking nor thinking about complicated things.
It seems that I haven't sat quietly like this for a long time, without any purpose, just quietly in a daze, letting go of my thoughts.
Over the years, she spent most of her time running around for the empire, and the thoughts and ideas in her mind never seemed to stop.
Are you too anxious?
Loren Hill slowly leaned back, letting her hair fall lightly on the bed along with her body.
Forget it, don't continue to analyze yourself, you feel that you will get sick.
Well, I want to go home a bit, I want to finish early, go back early, lie down on a comfortable pillow, and then sleep well, I want to sit under the shade of the cicadas in summer, fish quietly without thinking about anything, and look at the leaves Slowly setting, the sun gradually slanted westward, and the golden afterglow dyed the clouds in brilliant colors.
Slowly, the girl gradually sank into the dream, and there was a faint sound of breathing in the room, and the regular ups and downs indicated that her master was experiencing a long dream.
The next morning, Roland Hill felt a little itchy on his face, and then opened his eyes, only to find a cute cat's paw touching his forehead.
This black cat is not big, only the four feet and tail end are dotted with white on the body, and the rest are soft black, which is very special.
"Meow~"
The cry has a long tail, and the simple voice seems to contain a variety of changes, which makes people feel happy.
Seeing Roland Hill sitting up, the black cat stepped back a few steps, squatted on the bed, looked up at the girl's face, and the tail behind him twitched from time to time, indicating that it was slightly happy.
What a special cat, how did it get into the room, but it looked so cute, Loren Hill wanted to touch the soft cat fur.
"Meow~"
The cat barked again at the girl, then walked over slowly, rubbed its head on its arm, and then jumped onto Roland Hill's thigh with small steps.
There was a soft touch on the arm, and before Roland Hill could touch the little guy, the other party jumped on the leg, and a slight touch of trampling came from the thigh, making the girl feel a little itchy.
Fortunately, the black cat didn't move any more, so Roland Hill held it, and then touched the supple body of the cat.
This little guy seemed to enjoy Loren Hill's touch, his eyes narrowed, and then he lay down on the girl's lap, making a grunting sound.
It's a little fleshy. Roland Hill touched this guy and felt that it was not that kind of thin stray cat. The soft cat fur was very warm and had a very good sensuality.
When the wrist brushed the cat ear, the black cat ear trembled slightly, avoiding the girl's touch, which made Roland Hill a little more curious, and then touched the cat ear with his finger again, every time it would be the same. Brings a slight jittery evasion.
Feeling that the pinna was a little troubled, he swept his fingertips, and a familiar and nostalgic memory emerged in his mind. It seemed that a long, long time ago, I was like this, going to tease the tabby cat in my hometown.
Loren Hill slowly stroked the black cat, showing pure happiness on his face.
In order not to disturb the little guy's sleep, Roland Hill also sat on the edge of the bed and did not continue to get up, just for the rare leisure and happiness in this life.
A soft hum came from Roland Hill's mouth.
There are no complex tunes, difficult timbres, only simple and light melody, which are repeated and turned again and again.
The sand of time flows quietly in the shimmer of the morning sun, making people feel its delicacy and beauty.
In this way, after another peaceful and quiet morning, the things that had been accumulated in Roland Hill's heart also dissipated a lot, and it seemed that everything became relaxed and empty.
Near noon, the black cat woke up leisurely, its feet rested on the girl's skirt, its hind legs were raised high, it made a meowing sound of stretching, and then it jumped from the dress on Loren Hill's legs in small steps. Get off and go to the other side of the bed.
Then a flash of light flashed, and the black cat in front of him dissipated like smoke and reconvened, turning into a girl about the size of Roland Hill.
Compared with normal humans, she has obvious cat ears and a tail, and wears a black dress with white embellishments. The collar, cuffs, and skirt are all decorated with white floral ornaments, and the tail is also tied with white bows, and Her form as a black cat corresponds one by one.
"I slept really well, thank you little Lorraine~" The black-haired girl made a brisk voice, walking around in small steps where the girl was, full of curiosity and agility.
"Who are you?" Looking at this special black cat girl, Roland Hill vaguely guessed the identity of the other party, but was not sure.
"I'm Luria, the cat witch~"
The girl turned around, pressed her hand on her chest, and introduced herself.
The ancient witch of cats, the always curious and young black cat, the powerful and changeable cat, this witch of cats speaks of her abilities.
"I know all the legends and abilities about cats." The witch said happily.
Compared with other witches, it is a single power about a certain concept
, This witch's powers are all related to cats, diverse and unified.
"For example, cats are liquids and can pass through a small space, so I can do it too." After speaking, she easily came to the window sill, jumped, jumped over the window that only opened the crack, and stood Outside the windowsill, he waved to Roland Hill.
"And cats can make people happy, so I can do it too."
Having said that, the witch returned to the room with ease, came to Roland Hill in a light jump, picked up the girl's hand, and held it together.
"Isn't this a lot of fun~"
Although he had the urge to laugh, Roland Hill held back and nodded: "It seems to be a lot happier."
"La la la, of course, I'm the cutest cat." The witch turned around briskly on the spot, and compared Roland Hill with a scissor hand.
"However, there are also some abilities that are not very useful."
"Like what?" Roland Hill was curious.
"For example, when you fall from a height, you always land on your feet first."
"This is not bad, at least not afraid of falling." Roland Hill covered his mouth and chuckled.
"But there are also many powerful abilities. For example, walking and movement can remove all sounds and fluctuations to the point where no one notices them."
"Maomao is a natural assassin~"
"It seems like this." Roland Hill recalled the early morning, even if he didn't notice the black cat in advance, the effect is similar to that of the hidden witch back then, but Luria's ability is only for herself Effective and cannot interfere with other things.
"Mmmm." Seeing that Roland Hill understood her appearance without explanation, Lulia was obviously a lot more happy.
"Lorraine is indeed a good person, a friend to associate with." She said her judgment.
"So, I decided to agree to Tiides' request to help you."
"Ah, then you came before?"
"I told Tiides, let's take a look first, I didn't say that I would definitely help, the cat will only help the friends she likes." Lulia said that as a black cat, she was free, even Tidais could not order she.
"It seems so." Roland Hill was secretly glad that he was recognized by this cat witch.
After that, the two sat on the edge of the bed and talked for a few more words before going downstairs together.
"The cat is hungry and wants to eat, Loren will take me there." The black cat-like witch wanted to see if there was any fresh food nearby.
"Let's eat..." Roland Hill carefully recalled what good restaurants are in Ilfner. In fact, she didn't live here for a long time.
"Then go there."
A special restaurant appeared in the girl's mind, and the fat dragon with a round belly on the sign was very cute.
After changing into travel clothes, Roland Hill was about to take Luria out, but was stopped by this man again.
"Put this on first~" Lulia took out a white cat ear headband in her hand, with white cat ears with a face on it, very cute.
"This..." Roland Hill took a few steps back, looking at Lulia with a little fear, feeling bad.
Although she likes cats, it doesn't mean that she wants to be a cat.
"This is a prop I asked Tides to make. It can hide her appearance and presence. Don't worry, others can't see the cat ears." Luria introduced proudly.
"Lorraine is a big celebrity in the South, right? You don't want to be recognized when you eat on the street." Luria held up the white cat-ear headband and cheerfully persuaded the shy sage girl, step by step. approach.
"But, but..." Although he knew that Tides' props did have such an effect, Roland Hill was still a little shy.
"But Loren is really cute." Unconsciously, Lulia came behind the girl and put the white cat-ear headband on Loren Hill's head.
"Like! It would be even better if there was a tail." Lulia said something incredible, making Roland Hill nervous.
"The tail is definitely not good," she said, raising her hands and crossing them.
"Okay, but cat ears seem to be enough." Lulia turned around Roland Hill a few times, with a happy smile on her face, and even the tail behind her kept wagging, with a white The bow dangles and makes one want to grab it and tell if it's a real tail or something.
"Let's go downstairs."
After preparing the equipment to go out, the two witches finally walked down the stairs.
Lorraine Hill put on a comfortable dress today, the color is pure white, and there are pleated floral decorations on it, but they are all white. This is her daily dress, but it is more girlish in private clothes, but it is not. I think it was unexpectedly suitable after being put on that headband today.
The two were walking on the street, Luria was in front and Loren Hill was behind. The former looked at the surrounding buildings and streets curiously, and asked the girl various questions.
Most of the buildings in Falfna, a city on the top of the mountain, are built of stone, but there are also some dark brown wood in the structure, which does not look monotonous. Except the main road is smooth masonry, other streets There are many up and down slopes, and most of them are steps.
Luria, wearing small leather shoes, jumped down the steps with ease, stopping occasionally, looking at the courtyard lawn behind the black iron fence on the street, and asking where Roland Hill was.
"Most of these courtyards used to be the residences of the great nobles in the South." Roland Hill came to Lulia's side, raised her pure white sleeves, and introduced the courtyard ahead where people came and went from time to time.
"It is very
Most of them have been transformed into 'Fairy Wood' offices, because they are indeed very spacious and convenient. "
"Oh, that's it, Loren is very powerful, Lulia can't do that." The cat witch looked at the fairy tree members in white robes on the street with excitement and envy. .
"Luria used to want to build an organization that worships cats, but she couldn't recruit enough people, and then she gave up."
"It's difficult and troublesome to manage everyone, and everyone is still unhappy. Lulia can't do it." The cat witch's voice dropped, and the ears and tail on her head drooped together, making people feel pitiful.
"Don't worry, it will definitely become easier in the future, and it can be done easily." Roland Hill recalled the many 'shit shoveling officers' he had seen in his previous life, and thought about the scene that Lulia was looking forward to, which would definitely happen someday in the future. accomplish.
"Really, Lorraine wouldn't be comforting me, in fact, Lulia is not that fragile, I am a very powerful cat." After speaking, the cat witch quickly recovered.
"No, I really believe that day will come." Roland Hill nodded firmly.
When the productivity was underdeveloped, just being alive took up most of people's energy and time, and naturally there was no chance to develop and pursue various favorite things.
But this situation will gradually change, and the future will become more and more colorful. All kinds of ideas that are just a flash of thought will be perfected by someone, creating all kinds of interesting stories and wonderful worlds that you want to see. .
"So, I think there will be more and more people who worship and like cats." Roland Hill took Luria's hand, and the two walked towards the turning point of the street together.
The clear fountain is in the middle of the street, and the pleasant sound of water and moist breath nourish the audio-visual of the people around, so that even if you live in this mountain city, it will not feel too boring and monotonous.
"It will be a little later." Roland Hill took Luria to the side of the street, and then raised his hand to point to the big sign in the distance.
The dark brown wooden board is the bottom, and there is a dragon-shaped signboard on it. This dragon has light red scales, small wings, a wide and round belly, and fires from its mouth. It looks a bit cute and mighty.
In the restaurant "Fire Dragon Hulu", famous chefs from the South will take you to experience the fiery and fiery nature of the dragon flame.
This restaurant is very famous for its signboard and slogan, and it can be said to be the most distinctive restaurant in Falfona.
"It smells good, what are they doing?" Luria walked towards the restaurant with a light leap, as if she wanted Roland Hill behind her to be faster.
"It's mainly for baking. It is said that one of the chefs is a fire dragon, and his dragon knight is the head chef and owner of the restaurant." Lorraine Hill slowly walked up the stairs, recalling the legend of Falfnane. statement.
"It is said that when they were slaughtering demon beasts, the fire dragon killed the huge demon beast boar with dragon breath and spit flame, and it exuded a particularly good smell. The roasted wild boar is full of praise, there is absolutely no smell of mutton in the past, and it is extraordinarily delicious.”
"so?"
"That's why the dragon knight started to repeat this behavior occasionally when slaying demon beasts, and slowly mastered the skill with his partner, the fire dragon, and finally he simply opened this restaurant by himself."
"It's good to have an appetite, hoo hoo, the cat is going to start killing today~" Lulia jumped up the steps in front of the restaurant's door and made her vow today.
Looking at the active and agile figure, Roland Hill felt a burst of lightness, and couldn't help but think back on whether he had missed something over the years.
Forget it, I still don't want to, the happiness of life should be so simple and pure.
