Chapter 166 Cat Dad is Shocked

Chapter 166 – Cat Dad is Shocked

‘What the hell did you do when I wasn’t around with you?!’

Xiaomao had a hundred questions in his mind while he stared at his retainer. He knew that Shepherd had a mind of his own, but he seemed to have many secrets.

<Magdalene is infuriated by Yuan Hua’s proclamation!>

The elusive fairy had been hiding in Shepherd’s suit pocket. She peeked her head out and glared at Yuan Hua.

Xiaomao almost burst into laughter when he saw the fairy’s reaction. He brought out a small bag of popcorn and 3D glasses. Then, he sat leisurely on the emperor’s lap to enjoy the drama.

Meanwhile, Yuan Shaoqing was flustered. He knew that his sister never socialized or was interested in marriage because of her obsession with magic, so he was taken aback by her demand.

“W-Why him of all people? He’s a weak fisherman.”

Yuan Hua snorted, “This is why you are an idiot. Can’t you see his foundation and the stacks of blessings he has?!”

“Hmm?”

Yuan Shaoqing raised his brows. He wore glasses and stared at Shepherd.

“Son of Heaven, Connate Providence Bearer, Fairy’s Lover, and Joshua’s Doppelgänger!? What kind of titleholder is this?!”

Xiaomao was also interested in Shepherd’s hidden titles. Since everyone was examining Shepherd, he also browsed the title details.

.

Title: Son of Heaven

Unlocked by mastering the racial skill “Entity’s Luck”. Only the favorite child of Heaven can obtain this title.

Effects: Randomly increase attributes by a random amount whenever you allocate a point to any attribute.

.

Title: Connate Providence Bearer

This title can only be acquired by increasing all six main attributes to over 1,000 before you reach level 200.

Effects: Match your spiritual root value with your level. Current formula: Total Level x 10 = All Spiritual Roots (without bonus from other titles or equipment). You can no longer gain allocable spiritual root points, and all your former points are reset to zero before the new calculation.

.

Title: Fairy’s Lover

You have one sick kink, but you had sex! Congratulations!

Because you are in a relationship with a fairy, some of your spiritual roots are permanently increased.

Effects: Increase your Water, Wind, and Light Spiritual Roots by 1,000. Effects can stack with other titles or bonuses from equipment.

.

Title: Joshua’s Doppelgänger

You had a chat with your original body, and you’re aware of your origins. As you accept who you are with no qualm, your original self, Joshua, has blessed you with this title.

Effects: Once a day, you can spend one second in reality to receive a 100-hour lecture from Joshua and learn any skill, spell, or technique from him.

.

Xiaomao took off his 3D glasses and dropped his jaw.

THIS MOFO HAD A NOVEL PROTAGONIST’S LUCK OR TEMPLATE!

The cat almost fainted. He couldn’t believe what he saw. Now, he understood why Shepherd got so strong in a short period of time.

Still, Xiaomao’s eyes were attracted to a certain small detail.

‘How TF did this guy do it with Magdalene?’

Xiaomao glanced back and forth between Shepherd’s face and the fairy in the latter’s pocket. He was curious how they had done the deed despite the difference in size.

Noticing Xiaomao’s naughty expression, Magdalene blushed and puffed her cheeks. She raised her fists and hands in protest.

<Magdalene wants you to mind your own business!>

<Magdalene said that she didn’t peek at you when you BOOM-SHAC-KA-LA-KA with Lucky. She expects you to respect her privacy!>

Xiaomao’s expression turned into a pokerface meme. He coughed and averted her eyes, feeling guilty.

Indeed, everybody had their little secret life that they didn’t want to disclose. Xiaomao chose not to cross the line.

Still, their relationship got more complicated because of Yuan Hua. Xiaomao wondered what Shepherd and Magdalene would do in this situation.

Strangely, Magdalene didn’t make a fuss or try to make an appearance here. She kept peeking at Yuan Hua and others in wary.

Xiaomao understood why. Magdalene was a lot weaker than Yuan Hua, and she knew her place. Acting out now might worsen the situation.

While everybody was in silence, Shepherd raised his hand and started communicating with his hand-sign language.

Yuan Shaoqing was amused, “Can’t you talk?”

Shepherd shook his head. He pointed at his mouth and crossed his fingers.

“Not surprising. All retainers of players are muted because of Pangu’s curses. You’re no exception. Well, I have a piece of good news for you. I can see that you have an exceptional background, and you’re more than qualified to join my family. If you’re willing to serve me and marry my sister, I’ll free you from the curse. Then, you can talk again. How’s that?”

Hearing Yuan Shaoqing’s offer, Xiaomao leaped off from the emperor’s lap and turned around. He hissed at him.

“Are you poaching my subordinate, munya?!”

Yuan Shaoqing sneered, “All retainers of every player are originally my empire’s citizens. I can employ them however and whenever I want as long as they are willing to join me.”

The emperor ignored Xiaomao and turned to Shepherd, “Well? What do you say, lad? Marry my sister and become a duke of this empire – Does that sound nice? You can’t get this offer anywhere. Think about it. You get my cute sister as your wife, and you will be my brother-in-law. All my subordinates will listen to your command. Also, don’t forget that only I can free you from the mute curse.”

Yuan Hua also glanced at Xiaomao. She smirked.

“Oh, my. Aren’t you the regressor that Lord Nian is looking for? You’re either an idiot or bold for coming here despite our relationship.”

As soon as Yuan Hua exposed Xiaomao’s secret, some ministers rushed out of the crowd. They knelt before the emperor and Yuan Hua.

Xiaomao looked at their red names by reflex.

Xin Ping, Minister of Foreign Affair, Nian Follower, Level 500

Guo Tu, Minister of Finance, Nian Follower, Level 520

Seeing their title and hostile red name, Xiaomao’s face was ashen even though the majority of his fur was white. He glanced at Yuan Shaoqing’s name color.

It was still white. Fortunately, the emperor had no intention of antagonizing Xiaomao… yet. On the other hand, Yuan Hua’s name was bright red while the majority of the personnel here were dark red as well. Only a handful of high-level generals, such as Yan Liang and Wen Chou, remained neutral.

Both Xin Ping and Guo Tu spoke in unison.

“Your Majesty, this cat is the criminal that Deity Nian wants dead. Please give a word, and we shall arrest these people at once!”

They were quite polite even though they wanted to kill Xiaomao right away.

Xiaomao wanted to flee from here ASAP, but he could only maintain his composure in this situation. Acting rashly in the throne room under many monstrous bosses might be disastrous.

The cat turned around and gazed at the emperor. The latter was also waiting for Xiaomao’s response.

“What do you think, cat?”

Xiaomao sighed, “What happened between me and Nian is one-sided, tyrannical, and overbearing. It’s true that he wants me dead, but I never harmed anyone that never attempts to harm me first.”

“Haha! I can tell. So, tell me honestly. Did you infiltrate the castle last night?”

This time, Yuan Shaoqing’s expression was solemn. There was no killing intent or friendly air around him like before.

Xiaomao bit his lower lips. He was at his wit’s end.

Even though he was in a desperate situation, he chose to gamble by being dead honest.

“Yes, that was me, munya.”

MURMUR

The crowd was surprised. They began whispering and giggling, wondering how the emperor would kill the cat.

As for the two level-2000 generals, they were amused. Yan Liang rubbed his chin while Wen Chou burst into laughter.

Wen Chou was a refined muscular middle-aged man with a goatee. He elbowed Yan Liang and teased him.

“I told you – It was the cat. I saw him slipping out of the array last night.”

Yan Liang, who was a calm late-middle-aged man with a full beard, wryly smiled, “But you pretended to not notice him.”

“We were summoned to the castle. Catching intruders isn’t my job.”

“Yeah, right. Anyway, I like the cat. He’s gutsy enough to confess. Do you think I can persuade the emperor to spare him?”

“Pfft. If you think you can recruit him before I do, dream on! I want him in my unit!”

“Hey! You were always a dog person. He’s a cat, so he belongs to my unit!”

“Not over my dead body, pal!”

“Hah?!”

The two generals began bickering and glaring at each other. However, nobody paid attention to them.

Meanwhile, Yuan Shaoqing’s mouth curved up into a smile.

“At least, you’re honest. Or should I say, you have no way out?”

“The infiltration was unintentional, munya. I was looking for a way out of there, but I got into your palace by an accident, munya.”

“I know. You went into the church’s underground and entered this palace through that shitty elevator, right?”

“You knew about that elevator?”

Xiaomao’s eyes gleamed. He started seeing hope.

Yuan Shaoqing burst into laughter. Then, he glanced at his sister.

“I know everything in my castle from the inside out. I always disguised myself as an idiot to fool Pangu’s priests. You know, I always hate the Pangu Church. I knew they were doing shady things and exploiting my name. Look at my sister. Even she has become one of Pangu’s henchmen in exchange for her magic talent.”

“…”

Xiaomao stopped talking. He sensed the cold air behind him.

Behind Xiaomao, Yuan Hua glared at her brother.

“What is that supposed to mean, Shaoqing?! Are you rebelling against Lord Pangu?!”

“My dearest sister, is that power worth your freedom?”

Yuan Shaoqing snapped his fingers, and Bush Cox walked out from the curtain behind the throne. Next to Bush Cox, Mimir also came out!
