Storm of Gods

Chapter 264 Justin
"Are you still hungry? You can't eat anymore. Wait a while and eat in the afternoon. I'll prepare a place for you in a bit, just like we did in Tianjing. For the next while, you should familiarize yourself with the environment. Herdan is very large, and there are many hidden forces, so be careful not to wander around." Li Xin instructed.

The black cat meowed softly. Although it was full, the journey had really taken its toll. It needed to recuperate before it could start a new life!

The black cat found a corner and curled up into a ball. Li Xin was suddenly a little happy. This would make delivering letters much more convenient. He wouldn't have to run around anymore, and he could save on carriage fees. It was a great deal!

After handing the case over to Christie, Li Xin decided to write a draft. He took out a cigar, lit it, and his little brain immediately perked up. The typewriter started clattering, startling the black cat, who watched it warily before lying back down.

In the dream, the black cat returned to that damned ship. It had fallen for the foolish human Qi Badao's trick, who told it it was going to a new place to eat and drink well. It had developed a severe fear of the sea. Fortunately, it finally arrived at its destination. The climate here was warm and the environment was very nice, which suited it quite well.

A warm breeze blew in through the window, and the black cat finally slept soundly. When it woke up, it found that the foolish human was still tinkering with a machine. It wouldn't be surprised at all that intelligent beings from Tianjing were using Hextech; there were even more outrageous things.

Li Xin looked at his morning's work with satisfaction, quite good. "You're awake. I'll take you to lunch and introduce you to some people."

Li's Dragon Language business is clearly not as popular as before. Many imitations have appeared, and the novelty has worn off. Of course, Dragon Mom is smart, and the large portions and full meals are still the selling point. There are still some regular customers, such as the regulars in the inn. When Lao Fang and others returned from the market to eat lunch after closing their stall, they were very curious to see a black cat following Li Xin.

"Where did you find such a dirty cat?"

"If Daenerys sees this, she'll be stewed."

"Yes, Daenerys doesn't allow pets."

The black cat immediately meowed fiercely a few times and revealed its sharp claws. Foolish humans, you probably don't know how powerful Brother Cat is.

"Don't scare him. This is a spirit cat named Xiao Hei. It can deliver messages. One lira is enough. Anyone who needs it can ask it for help," Li Xin said with a smile. Suddenly, a brilliant idea struck him, and he discovered a way to make money. Even small amounts of money are still money.

In the underground city of Tianjing, this price would be considered extravagant, but in Heldan, it would be quite suitable for a relatively reliable delivery, as one is bound to encounter an urgent matter.

The black cat looked at Li Xin with disdain. Of course, it wanted to make money in a new place, but the name was just too corny.

Old Fang smiled and said, "Ah Xin thinks this name is too old-fashioned. Since we've come to Herdan, why not go with the flow and give it a new name?"

Size and color are characteristic of Lilong Township.

The black cat glanced at the lame old man, seemed to know something, and meowed at Lao Fang.

Li Xin looked at the black cat, thinking, "That's pretty picky, isn't it?"

Everyone laughed, and the black cat got angry and jumped onto the stool, meowing at Li Xin. Li Xin wasn't about to let it get away with this, so he lifted it up with his big hand and applied a little force. The black cat immediately became obedient, only then remembering that the person in front of it was its former boss's boss, a ruthless man.

"How about calling him Justin?" Old Fang laughed. "This cat is quite intelligent; he could be my partner sometime."

"This cat is obsessed with money; it probably wants a salary."

“That’s no problem, all spiritual beings are like that,” Old Fang nodded.

Li Xin suddenly realized something. No wonder the owl from the Hextech Bird Society always looked so grumpy when it came over; it was probably because he hadn't given it a tip. Damn it.

"Justin, what do you think?" Old Fang asked.

The black cat liked the name, but that moment had reminded it of the two kings. It turned to look at Li Xin, who smiled and said, "It's fine when it doesn't interfere with important matters."

“This cat is very intelligent. I feel like it would be a good match for me. Lately, my magic tricks have been involving pigeons coming and going, and I’m getting tired of it,” the magician said. “It may look dirty, but it could actually be quite promising if you gave it a haircut and dressed it up.”

As he spoke, Kan's eyes lit up; he had discovered a new way to make money.

"Mr. Kan has great taste; you can take care of it if you're interested." Li Xin didn't care; it would save him some money.

Ma Liu had already brought over the meal, and had also prepared a portion for the black cat.

Ma Liu clearly liked the black cat; perhaps lonely people all like pets. "This... is my personal... bowl."

“It’s called Justin now, and it’ll be living here from now on,” Li Xin said with a smile. “Who, who’s going to live here? How come I didn’t know?” Daenerys Targaryen came downstairs, her eyes still sleepy, and shouted so loudly that the dust on the roof shook. “Someone dares to be a middleman on my turf? They’re asking for trouble!”

“Daenerys Targaryen isn’t human; she’s a very intelligent cat. Everyone’s talking about modifying her to make money off rent,” Daliwen explained.

Seeing that it was a cat, Daenerys became lazy and glanced at the dirty black cat. "It can't be this dirty. The inn has hygiene requirements. I'll take it to get a wash."

Everyone was awestruck by Daenerys's imposing presence. Li Xin remained silent, and Black Cat trembled with fear as he was taken away.

"Would Daenerys kill it?"

"Probably not."

"Young Master Xin, I think you might need to raise the rent."

"At the very least, the food expenses will increase."

Li Xin wasn't too scared anymore; he'd written all morning and surely earned enough for his food. "Mother Daenerys is so kind, she wouldn't..."

A black cat's pitiful scream came from upstairs, and everyone fell silent instantly, exchanging bewildered glances. It was just a poor little cat.

Aww~ Aww~~~
Even the black cat was barking like a dog. Li Xin suddenly remembered that many people in his previous life would have their cats undergo minor surgeries. Holy crap, that could have been the death of Justin.

Everyone felt sorry for Justin, but no one dared to provoke Daenerys Targaryen, fearing she might use this as an excuse to cause trouble. Anyone who ran into her would either have their rent increased or, worse, end up losing money.

The cat's screams soon subsided; it was either being subdued or it was the end.

Li Xin was worried that the black cat might hurt Daenerys Targaryen. These awakened creatures were very powerful, and he couldn't afford to pay for it if it really hurt her. He might have to sacrifice young master Simmons.

When everyone had almost finished eating, Daenerys came downstairs, carrying something in her arms. Everyone was stunned.

Just a moment ago, the pitiful, dirty little cat had transformed into a handsome young master. It was cleaned up, its fur was trimmed, and it even seemed to have been scented. The cat was shiny black, and apart from its slightly cunning eyes, it was actually quite good-looking. Moreover, it was wearing a little outfit, which instantly gave it a sophisticated air.

“Kan, Kan, give me your hat,” Daenerys said.

Mr. Kane dared not resist and carefully handed the precious hat to Daenerys Targaryen. Daenerys put it on the black cat's head and said, "It's a bit big. Our Justin's head is very small. I have to make a small hat for him."

Daenerys held the hat up to herself for a while, and sure enough, if you add a walking stick to it, it becomes a gentleman cat, making it a very respectable cat to take out.

Old Fang and the others saw a business opportunity, and even Daliwen sensed it: "Mother Dragon, should I draw a portrait of her?"

"Granted, but I'll go buy him a hat this afternoon. This little guy is so well-behaved." He said, stroking the black cat's head. The black cat was as obedient as a cat.

“Ahem, Daenerys, this hat of mine is old, can it be altered to be smaller for her…” Mr. Kan suggested.

"Hmph, our Justin doesn't use old things." Daenerys pulled the black cat closer to her. "Sweetie, Daenerys will take you to eat something good. We don't eat this junk."

Li Xin opened his mouth, wanting to say that this was his cat... but everyone remained silent, and he wisely refrained from saying anything more. On the bright side, he could save a considerable amount of money in the future. This black cat had a lot of problems when it was with Qi Badao. It was always the first to run away when there was danger, spent all its time playing with cats, and was a picky eater.

"I didn't expect Daenerys Targaryen to be so good at dealing with cats."

"As expected of the leader of the carp dragons!"

"Justin is lucky to be with Daenerys Targaryen."

"We're all enjoying the good life thanks to Daenerys Targaryen."

Immediately, a torrent of flattery poured down from the crowd...
