The girl resisted the urge to ask them what would happen if the tails were the same color when they named their children by their tails.
She feigned indifference and said, "Don't follow me. If you follow me any further, I'll sell you to nobles who enjoy abusing slaves, and you'll be abused every day."
The two immediately faced each other, clasped each other's hands tightly, and looked at Celia with their faces close together.
"no, do not want!"
"Don't be afraid, Miaolan, I'll protect you."
"Thank you, Meow White."
Celia: "..."
Judging from their names, she thought they were siblings, but their inseparable and affectionate relationship suggested they might be a young couple who had eloped.
You two are here feeding me dog... cat food?
goo~
Suddenly, a growl came from Miaolan's belly, and the cat's face immediately turned red.
"Meow Blue is hungry..."
"Don't be afraid, Miaolan, I'll take you to eat something delicious."
"Is Miaobai rich?"
"No."
As she spoke, Miao Bai took out two silver coins and carefully handed them to Celia.
“Benefactor, here are your silver coins. You saved us, you shouldn’t give us any more money.”
“That’s right, that’s right, we can’t accept money from our benefactors! Miao Lan and Miao Bai are willing to work for our benefactors to repay their kindness!”
Celia couldn't help but laugh at the two kittens.
She accepted the silver coins Miao Bai offered and said, "Let's go. I'll take you to get something to eat first, and tell me about your situation while we're at it."
After saying that, Celia turned and walked forward.
The cats behind them exchanged a glance, linked arms, and quickly followed.
Cat people are generally petite and cute; even though Celia is only 1.6 meters tall, she is still a 'giant' in their eyes.
As Celia walked normally, they jogged alongside her.
The two girls' animal ears attracted the attention of passersby, but by this time, Celia had already put on the mage's robe given to her by Doris. The golden patterns made passersby know that she was not an ordinary mage, so no one dared to provoke her, but just marveled at her.
Dragon Island is far from the Orc Empire, and they don't even border it. Many people may never have seen an orc in their lives. Upon seeing the two adorable catgirls, they all used the photo-capturing function on their bracelets to capture their images.
Soon, Celia found the restaurant, led the two catgirls inside, and ordered a private room. While waiting for the food, she looked at the catgirl sitting right next to her.
"Now you can talk about your business."
Chapter 474 Simple, but not so simple
“We come from the cat-people tribe of the Orc Empire. Meow Blue and I ran away from the tribe because we wanted to see the world.”
"Who knew that as soon as I arrived on Dragon Island, I would be tricked by those despicable Dragon Island guides and taken to slave traders, where I would be sold into slavery."
Miao Bai and Miao Lan took turns talking, recounting their experiences one after another.
They are not siblings, nor are they said to be lovers. They are two children adopted by a cat-person shaman, and they have been very close since childhood.
Although Miaobai is male, overall, in terms of voice, appearance, body size, etc., he is cuter and more like a female than Miaolan.
At first, Celia thought they were two catgirls, but Ross pointed it out and she realized they were a male and a female.
Under the shaman's tutelage, the two became very curious about everything outside the tribe.
So, on their 14th birthday, after receiving the shaman's blessing, the two conspired to sneak out of the tribe, bypass the Protoss Forbidden Lands from the Northern Alliance, and then headed south until they arrived at Dragon Isle, where they almost got sold.
Celia tapped the table. "You were able to bypass the Northern Alliance, pass through Ishtar, and even pass through the Lionheart Kingdom in between, finally entering the Blue Dragon Empire from the Lionheart Kingdom. All those empires before you were fine, so why were you immediately sold out as soon as you entered the Blue Dragon Empire?"
Miao Lan said angrily, "The people of the Blue Dragon Empire are so bad! They actually deceived us!"
Celia asked in surprise, "You weren't scammed by the Northern Alliance, Ishtar, or Lionheart?"
Miao Bai said, "Of course there were, but I'm smart enough to have seen through everything long ago, and I didn't let them succeed!"
"Then why did you succeed here?"
"It was an accident, it must have been an accident!"
Celia seemed thoughtful. "Perhaps it wasn't an accident."
The two catgirls immediately perked up their ears.
Celia said, "The Tower of Depravity, which is most adept at manipulating people's hearts, is mainly active in the Blue Dragon Empire. Your strength is too low, and you couldn't resist the temptation, so you were deceived by them."
Miao Bai immediately said, "Yes, yes, that's it!"
Miao Lan tilted her head: "Didn't Miao Bai tell Miao Lan that you hate slaves the most, so you pretended to be bewitched, took Miao Lan to be captured, and were preparing to make your move or something?"
"Yes, that's true too." Miao Bai said somewhat guiltily.
Celia roughly understood what was going on, but she didn't expose Miao Bai's lie.
She pondered for a moment and felt that the two catgirls' purpose was probably not so simple.
Did they really just want to see the outside world and travel all the way to Dragon Island?
Celia asked, "When are your birthday wishes?"
Miao Lan immediately raised her hand and said, "It's November 11th! Isn't that amazing? It has two 1s, representing Miao Bai and Miao Lan!"
November 11th?
Celia checked today's date.
12 month 5 day.
In other words, it took them less than a month to travel from the Orc Empire to the Northern Alliance, then to Ishtar and Lionheart, and finally to the Blue Dragon Empire, even traversing its long and narrow territory to reach Dragon Island.
Ross clicked his tongue and said, "It's like they traveled all the way from Vladivostok to China and the Middle East to South Africa in less than a month, not even counting the time they were captured. These two catgirls are really good at running."
"Where is Vladivostok?" Celia asked, puzzled.
“Place names from a thousand years ago have been lost to the era of calamity,” Ross said casually.
"Oh."
Celia had no suspicions.
She didn't know anything about Vladivostok, but she knew that the Orc Empire had traveled all the way to the Blue Dragon Empire.
If it were just for fun, it wouldn't take that long to make a special trip.
These two catgirls must be hiding something.
However, Celia didn't pay any attention to it.
Their goals don't conflict with mine. Whatever they want to do, they can't possibly steal my materials, can they?
After rescuing them, we'll have a meal together and learn about their experiences, and that'll be the end of it.
We met by chance.
Soon the food was served, and the two catgirls' eyes lit up. They devoured the food at a speed completely disproportionate to their size, quickly wiping it out in a flash.
Miao Lan patted her belly and burped, while Miao Bai said earnestly, "Benefactor, please command us! We are willing to work for you for a month. We will do whatever you want us to do!"
Celia waved her hand: "You guys are too weak."
Miao Lan immediately sat up straight: "Miao Bai isn't weak, he's very strong!"
"How could someone so capable get arrested?"
"me……"
Miao Bai quickly said, "Benefactor, although we are weak and can't help much in combat, we can help you carry things!"
Miao Lan nodded repeatedly: "Yes, Miao Lan can also do housework, she can sweep the floor, wipe the table, and cook."
Miao Bai: "If you take away the cooking part, you'll burn the meat when you grill it."
"Hmph, you bastard Meow White, I'm ignoring you."
"..."
Celia said speechlessly, "I don't need to take anything. I don't have much. I'm here to do housework. I'm a tourist. I don't need a maid to clean the hotel. The hotel will clean it itself."
With that, Celia stood up: "Alright, now that you're full, leave. You came to the Blue Dragon Empire for your own reasons, right? Go do what you need to do. I don't have time to take you two with me. I suggest you buy some clothes with hoods to cover your ears and tails, so you won't be targeted by slave traders."
Sensing that the two people behind her wanted to follow, Celia turned around and warned, "If you follow again, you'll end up like that woman."
The two stopped immediately.
Celia breathed a sigh of relief after she left and sensed that they were finally not following her.
It's true that you can't always be soft; you need to be tough sometimes to intimidate others.
Having easily dealt with a slave den, Celia was in a good mood. Humming a bard's tune, she bought a map and headed towards the Sorcerer's Guild.
In each city she visited, she would make a trip to the Sorcerer's Guild and the Mercenary's Guild, and also inquire about the city's black market to see if there were any materials she needed.
Once you have all the materials, then you can consider visiting exotic landscapes.
When Celia went to the Sorcerer's Guild, the destroyed slave den attracted an investigation team from the Blue Dragon Empire.
A young man dressed in the robes of a sorcerer from the Blue Dragon Magic Academy leaned lazily against the back gate of the courtyard, watching the investigation team perform an autopsy on Galton.
A moment later, an investigator approached and respectfully said, "Lord Ryan, the specific details have been ascertained. The one who made the move was a mysterious ice mage. Based on the residual magical fluctuations from the battle, there was only this one ice mage."
"Mr. Galton's battle with the other side was intense. However, there was very little fire magic left at the scene. It was as if Galton was being beaten up one-sidedly. As for the other guards of the manor, they were all killed instantly by an ice spell, which was initially identified as a first-tier ice spell called [Ice Blade].
The young man called Ryan yawned, rubbed his heavily dark-circled eyes, and said, "Understood, continue the investigation."
His subordinate was taken aback: "It seems there's nowhere left to investigate."
Ryan said irritably, "Why are you investigating so quickly? What about what happened after the battle? Have you finished investigating that too?"
"The investigation is complete."
"..."
Chapter 475 Investigation is not as good as giving up
If Celia were here, she would definitely recognize this young man.
Because he was the captain of the runner-up team in the Mage League.
Ryan looked at the investigator giving his report with a frustrated expression and asked irritably, "What did the other side do after fighting Galton?"
The investigator found Ryan's attitude somewhat strange, but still said respectfully, "According to the situation at the scene, after the mysterious ice mage killed Mr. Galton, he entered the manor's underground and took away all of Mr. Galton's slaves."
"That sorcerer didn't seem to be after kidnapping slaves. After releasing them, he even provided them with clothes, and some of the slaves received a silver coin."
Ryan was taken aback: "You investigated so thoroughly? You captured those slaves?"
The investigator said, "No, it was when the slave transport team came to transport slaves that they captured a slave who hadn't left. We learned the rest from that slave. There were also a few maids who hadn't been killed. We couldn't get anything out of them, except that the mysterious sorcerer's puppet had driven them out."
Ryan looked exasperated: "Can't you guys learn from the Northern Alliance?"
Three question marks appeared above the investigator's head. Considering Ryan's identity, the investigator pondered for a moment, shook his head, and cautiously asked, "I'm sorry, Lord Ryan, I can't fathom your meaning. May I ask what excellent qualities of the Northern Alliance you want us to learn? Hospitality?"
Ryan said, "Learn from their efficiency."
The investigators were even more confused: "Isn't the Northern Alliance's investigation efficiency recognized as the best in the world...?"
He suddenly realized something and immediately said, "Lord Ryan, your reminder is very timely. We have indeed overlooked many things and need to investigate them carefully."
Ryan finally relaxed and said approvingly, "Yes, continue the investigation."
"As ordered!"
Ryan sat down in the courtyard's rest area, watched the busy investigation team, and sighed.
"I finally managed to snag a mission to relax, how could I let it end so quickly? I don't want to go back and face Marika and the others."
He looked at the messy courtyard and the still unmelted ice, and couldn't help but think of the culprit who had forced him to run away for refuge: Celia, the champion of the Mage League.
"Speaking of which, that Celia is also an ice mage... How come there are so many ice mages?"
