Chapter 209: The Demon Dragon and the Dragon God

"You're not getting away with this!"

Oh?

Still holding up.

But one plan fails, another arises.

Luo De clearly remembered the faint concern and worry the girl had shown when he had struck the wrong person earlier.

So he approached the headless knight beside her.

Crack—crack—

At the sound, the girl's eyes snapped open, fear clearly visible within them.

"Don't touch my sister!"

Sister, perfect.

"You don't want your sister to suffer the same fate, do you?"

The girl bit her lip, her expression deeply conflicted.

The girl could only tell Luo De everything she knew.

Among the headless knights, the sister with a head was named Mi Mi; the sister without a head was named Ta Ta.

They were both brought back as guards and assistants when the Witch Cat returned to the labyrinth.

Thus, they knew quite a bit about many things.

According to Mi Mi, a year ago, the Witch Cat noticed that the labyrinth's consciousness had changed.

But at first, she paid it no mind.

After all, the labyrinth's consciousness was extremely slow and sluggish—it was hard to affect its inhabitants in a short time.

Some mages even compared the labyrinth's consciousness to a tree that had entered its stable phase: it still grew, but so slowly it was nearly imperceptible.

Besides, the labyrinth's consciousness was a deeply advanced topic in magical studies—beyond the level of a student like the Witch Cat, who had dropped out of Bahadur Magic Academy.

However, as the ether storms in the extradimensional space raged over the past half-year, the altered labyrinth consciousness gradually gained greater influence over reality.

This transformed labyrinth consciousness established a faith called "Dragon God" within the 【Cat Sprite Paradise】.

"Wait a moment."

Luo De couldn't help but pinch the bridge of his nose.

The ether storms in the extradimensional space had raged for the past half-year.

According to Bone Dragon Mei Gan, wasn't this connected to him?

Tally leaned close to her master's ear and chuckled: "Isn't this your doing?"

Is it?

Luo De glanced at her.

Tally playfully shrugged her shoulders: "Not now~"

"."

He felt a faint sense of strangeness inside.

Had their relationship become too intimate?

With a head watching beside him, Luo De always felt something off.

Tally looked at him with delight: "Brother-sama~ Tally thinks she understands the contrast you seek!"

Mi Mi let out a terrified scream.

Tally jumped and cried: "Nai Gan Ma!"

"Hehehe—"

Tally smirked and made a sound.

"Stop screaming, keep talking—or I'll let you take her place," Luo De said coldly.

Mi Mi instantly fell silent, glancing at him in fear.

She could only continue speaking about the Witch Cat.

After discovering the Dragon God faith, the Witch Cat felt something was wrong and began secretly observing.

She occasionally used magic to transform into an ordinary Cat Sprite and infiltrated the palace to investigate.

For two months straight, she detected nothing unusual.

Just as she was about to relax, Princess Mei Mei of the Cat Sprites ascended Witch Peak to visit her.

Princess Mei Mei told her that King Tiao Tiao, following the Dragon God's guidance, was conducting countless evil experiments—all to obtain so-called "Dragon Body Materials."

The Witch Cat was furious—this confirmed her suspicions.

She was a Cat Sprite with deep nostalgia for her homeland, determined to restore the 【Cat Sprite Paradise】 to its former glory. Together with Princess Mei Mei and Duke Andy, she devised a plan to steal the Dragon Body Materials.

Hearing this,

Luo De couldn't help but ask: "What connection is there between stealing the Dragon Body Materials and restoring the 【Cat Sprite Paradise】 to its former glory?"

To use the Dragon Body Materials to control Nao Lin's labyrinth consciousness?

Unlikely. According to Mi Mi, the Witch Cat was no high-tier mage—she clearly lacked the understanding or knowledge to reach such a level.

"What?"

Tally's voice was too loud; Mi Mi hadn't heard a word.

"Perhaps… perhaps the Witch Cat had deeper insights and thoughts."

Luo De didn't dwell on the question. Since the Dragon Body Materials were indeed on Witch Peak, it didn't matter.

He wasn't interested in the Cat Sprites' conspiracy or plan.

Though their strength was weak, they were certainly pleasing to the eye.

What?

You're asking why, with so many pleasing girls already in the forest, I still want to bring more in?

Come on!

These are headless knights! And they're sisters! Don't they have collection value?!

"Mm!"
