Ordinary fantasy adventure in Faerûn

Chapter 96 Lobbying

The winged cat stopped its paws in confusion. It was surprised that it could understand the mouse, and it was also surprised that the mouse could actually see the monsters hidden in the room. You must know that the reason why it could find those monsters was completely Relying on their race's innate ability to detect invisibility, how did this rat do it?

"Interesting, this is my first time talking to a mouse. How did you do it? In the past, your kind were just chirping and wailing before they died under my claws."

"If you are born with the ability to talk to cats, then why have I never heard you begging for mercy?"

After saying this, the wing cat did not continue to express its intention to attack. It licked its raised paw and then put it down. Nohir, who was talking to it with the help of his tail's mouth, couldn't help but relax when he saw this. One breath.

As long as he is willing to communicate, the matter can still turn around. He can also try to lobby. Although the lobbying may fail, it is better than the cat coming up and attacking directly. If that happens, he will probably lose it. This brave scout died, and Nohill's heart would be sad for this poor little life.

"Why don't you speak again? Why don't you explain, you stinking little guy, don't you know that the only reason why you are still alive now is because you can satisfy my curiosity?"

Seeing this, Nohill's thoughts began to race rapidly. He was trying to combine the information revealed by the details in the previous room and the knowledge about winged cats in his mind to think about how to lobby to save Tails' life.

In fact, he had already had some ideas before. According to Wang Guan's perception, those little devils were very disgusted with this winged cat. Playing with it and teasing it were their daily entertainment. In this environment, Xia Nohir didn't believe that this winged cat wouldn't hate those little devils. Maybe he could convince it by following this direction.

"Oh, beautiful and powerful cat, don't you think it is in your best interests to work together to kill the other monsters hiding in this house, rather than asking me why I can communicate with you?"

The winged cat clearly enjoyed Nohir's flattery, so it responded.

"Well~ beauty and power are real, but cat? This name is really - meow, forget it, you can do whatever you want. Although I don't want to admit it, you really made me more curious about you."

"Now explain it carefully. At least until you have nothing to say, I will hold back my appetite."

What Nohir said next would determine the fate of Tails. Whether he would be scratched to death by the winged cat in exchange for food, or whether he would be able to leave unharmed. At this time, the winged cat also leaned down and licked its paws leisurely. , it is waiting for what interesting words the little mouse in front of it will say.

However, Yi Mao's reaction made Nohill's heart sink a little. He couldn't help but wonder if his guess was wrong? After all, if it really hates those little devils, then after hearing the word revenge, its reaction cannot be so dull, right?

But even though his heart was so messed up, Nohir still suppressed the suspicion in his heart. After all, at this time, he could only continue to talk about this topic.

"Beautiful and powerful Winged Cat, you don't seem to be very interested in my previous proposal. Can I know why?"

It stopped licking its paws and stared coldly at its tail. From the tail's perspective, even Nohir was a little creeped out by this gaze. Fortunately, it did not attack, but took over. He continued to speak to Nohir.

"No - actually, I'm interested, but you, you're just a pathetic little mouse, I'm really surprised that you can see them, but even if you can see those monsters, what can you do? ?”

It stood up and stared at its tail closely, and began to slowly circle around it, saying as it turned.

"The people in this house are idiots. They can't see those invisible monsters, but I can. I started fighting against these monsters when they suddenly appeared in this house a long time ago, but their numbers are too great. I can't beat them, so I can only try to alert others and hope to get help."

"I have tried many times, but the other people in this room have turned a deaf ear every time. In fact, they don't understand what I say at all. My reminders are either ignored, or they can only be exchanged for a piece of bacon. Oh, this seems to be the best result. Kind-hearted Mr. Gaborei, it would be nice to get some bacon in exchange. At least my kindness has not been completely wasted."

The winged cat's thoughts drifted into the distance, but soon it returned to reality, and it continued to speak to Nohir. "And my mistress, my disgusting and stupid mistress, even though she has never shown any respect to me, I did not give up on her at this critical moment. I tried to remind her that our residence was occupied. A bunch of invisible monsters invade, but guess what?”

"My kindness didn't get food or respect. What I got in exchange was a fierce kick from her. That attack left me seriously injured and almost died."

The painful memories made Winged Cat unconsciously bar his teeth. It was obvious that no matter how deep his feelings for the Vansample family were in the past, this loyalty and attachment, no matter how strong they once were, have now been destroyed by this cruel treatment. No trace is left behind.

"How about, little mouse, can you still maintain your current arrogance after knowing this? Although those monsters have been targeting me since then, they never show up in front of other people in this house, and I don't Do you think a little thing that can be slapped to death by my claws has any good ideas?”

The winged cat lay down lazily again, as if it had completely given up on the possibility of revenge, but Nohir knew that this was just an appearance. After mastering this information, he now had enough confidence to let the tail escape. No, maybe it was more than that. This winged cat that might have been a hostile creature may now be his helper!

As long as Nohill can persuade it, and under the premise of such a tragic experience, Nohill thinks it shouldn't be difficult.

"What a terrible experience. You are a brave and loyal kitten. All this tragedy should not happen to you at all. But poor kitten, do you know that the source of all your tragedies comes from your mistress? "

Nohill first offered words of comfort, but then his words changed. He had to arouse its dissatisfaction first, so that the subsequent lobbying could be successful, and Yimao's response also confirmed Nohill's guess.

"Meow~ Thank you for your comfort, little mouse. Your words are so sweet that I don't want to kill you, but of course I know who gave me the pain."

"Those monsters never dare to attack me directly when someone is watching, but every time I want to take advantage of this to kill them, my mistress will appear - all my pain comes from my mistress .”

Because these little devils are raised by your mistress.

"No, kitten, it's much more than that. Don't you wonder why this is happening? Why does your mistress protect those monsters? Haven't you ever thought about this?"

The average intelligence of the winged cat race is 11 points, which is a little higher than the average intelligence of humans. Nohill believes that it must have thought about why this is the case. Maybe it has already come to the conclusion, but it does not dare to believe it.

"Those monsters are your mistress's new pets. If you want to kill her new pets, your mistress will naturally attack you. Poor kitten, you have already lost your favor."

Nohir's words silenced the winged cat, but the silence didn't last long. It suddenly spoke as if talking to itself.

"...Well, actually I probably guessed it, otherwise why it happens so coincidentally every time, and why those monsters never hurt others, there is only one explanation, but - pampering?"
