Cat-people? Never mind.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo De felt utterly uninterested.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What he’d expected to be a den of debauchery had turned into a cat-fan paradise.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He sighed silently in his heart.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He decided to return to the forest immediately after retrieving the package.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cats are naturally cute and likable—but if they can’t do anything, it’s just disappointing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Wahhh! Did Naulin mess up? I’m sorry, Master! Naulin will kill them all later! Wahhh!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“That’s unnecessary.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Naulin’s murderous instincts were unexpectedly strong.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>During the last cutting maze ritual, she did the same thing—always wanting to kill everyone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He calmed Naulin down.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo De looked ahead at the cat-fairy leading the way—a creature resembling a British Shorthair he’d seen on Earth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gray back, white belly, round and plump, wearing a silver armor adorned with intricate patterns, walking with the proud belly-thrust of a general—quite adorable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If a cat-slave came here, they might never want to leave.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But unfortunately, neither Luo De nor Tally were cat lovers.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It seemed Tally actually liked them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She held Luo De’s hand, gazing intently at every cat-fairy that passed by.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“So you like cats? I never realized—”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Master, which one should we go for later? The white one? Or the gray one?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo De suddenly felt a headache coming on.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He’d forgotten succubi’s omnivorous nature—being a race with vast appetites, they wouldn’t even spare creatures like the Igors, giant insects.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He ignored her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo De called out to the British Shorthair cat-fairy ahead: “Pudding, where are we going?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yes, you read that right—this elegant general’s name was Pudding, oddly fitting the human habit of naming pets.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Pudding bowed to him, folding her two white-gloved paws together.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Your Majesty Luo De, the treasure is currently under the care of King Jump. We shall first proceed to the palace to report, then hold a three-day, three-night banquet to welcome the Two Dragon God Messengers.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dragon God Messengers?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Oh right—the so-called Dragon God refers to Naulin.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Though Luo De didn’t know how Naulin communicated with other labyrinth consciousnesses, clearly, she belonged to the top tier.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The labyrinth Luo De currently stood in was said to fall under her jurisdiction.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even the benefits of the Open Labyrinth Pass could be activated here.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The timid, constantly apologizing Dragon Soul girl wasn’t easy to provoke—she only acted this way in front of her master.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The cats and the two humans walked along the winding forest path, and once they emerged from the trees, the view opened up again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They stood atop a slope, and far ahead, they could see a grand city.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But to humans, was it a bit small?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No—it felt grand and massive to Luo De as well.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Huh?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo De suddenly froze.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wait—was General Pudding this tall before?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Impossible!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He quickly examined his own body and compared it to the surrounding trees.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His clothes hadn’t grown longer or larger, nor had the Sword of Devotion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet compared to the trees, he felt visually taller than before.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>【Affected by the rules of the ‘Unnamed Labyrinth,’ your size is shrinking. Use the Open Labyrinth Pass to exempt?】\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“So it’s the labyrinth’s rule.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Pudding noticed Luo De had stopped and turned back in confusion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing him staring in shock at his own body, she suddenly remembered something and hurriedly explained:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Forgive me, Your Majesty Luo De! I forgot to explain—this labyrinth is called the Cat-Fairy Paradise. All non-cat-fairy outsiders shrink in size upon entry! I’m terribly sorry!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Pudding knelt down in panic; the other cat-fairies followed suit, begging for forgiveness.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tally beside him blinked, realizing her body had shrunk without her noticing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even her clothes and gear had shrunk with her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She found it mildly amusing and cast a transformation spell to restore her normal proportions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This wasn’t exempting the debuff—it was merely forcibly enlarging her body with magic.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But under the labyrinth’s rules, she was still considerably smaller than a normal human.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Still, she was taller than Luo De now—he’d become round and plump like a cat-fairy, his proportions increasingly similar, though he remained slightly taller.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“It’s fine. No big deal.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo De waved to the cat-fairies.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was about to use the Open Labyrinth Pass to exempt himself when the “giant” Tally suddenly hugged him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her gaze toward her master was burning, possessive.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Master, so tiny! So cute~~”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tally: ()\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Let go. I’m changing back.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“No no no~ Please, Master~ Let me try being tiny too~”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo De scanned Tally’s current persona—usually he was the large one, facing smaller forms; even the biggest of the beastfolk, Amy, had slimmed down considerably.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Go ahead.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He pushed Tally away and did not activate the exemption.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tally understood he’d agreed—her face lit up with delight.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She helped the cat-fairies up, assured them again, and after a while, they resumed their journey.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Perhaps because their bodies had shrunk.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Their pace and timing had slowed considerably.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It took nearly an hour to reach the city’s gates.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo De could have used Tree Walker to arrive instantly, but he gave them face—it was their territory.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After General Pudding’s signal.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The city gates lowered smoothly, and the group entered the city.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The cat-fairies’ city was identical to a human one—streets, shops, patrolling guards, towering buildings.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But perhaps due to different aesthetics, their weapons, armor, and architecture all leaned toward “roundness.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For example, the tower ahead didn’t have a conical peak—it was spherical.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Their spears didn’t have pointed tips—they were shaped like round, shovel-like discs.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It looked rather comical.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Along the way, cat-fairy residents stared curiously at Luo De and Tally, pointing and whispering among themselves.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo De faintly heard respectful terms like “Dragon God Messengers.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But he also heard comments like, “The Dragon God Messengers have no fur.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It seemed Naulin had been controlling this for some time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Following the central avenue, the group finally entered the palace.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Guided by the guards, Luo De and Tally walked the red carpet straight to King Jump.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was a black-and-white tuxedo cat-fairy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The moment he saw Luo De, he lost all royal dignity and rushed over in panic.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Dragon God Messengers! Disaster! The treasure the Dragon God entrusted to us has been stolen!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Can you not do this again?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>(End of Chapter)\u003C\u002Fp>",1106,"2026-06-20T19:55:31.704Z",1,"Qwen3-Next 80B","8adc7b43e7aee47222602a430d30a0604e1c6aba4e83843e252bcf172600d3cb","i-m-a-forest-warden-why-am-i-enslaving-a-succubu-chapter-206","i-m-a-forest-warden-why-am-i-enslaving-a-succubu-chapter-204",704,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fi-m-a-forest-warden-why-am-i-enslaving-a-succubu-cover.jpg"]
