They all call me master

In Gram's diary, he repeatedly mentioned the inheritance and power of the 'Cat Cave'.

And the precept-keeping ceremony as a ‘cat cave’ to reconcile ‘spirituality’ also reveals this power everywhere——

[Cat Orange] The entire ceremony requires six naturally fallen orange cat whiskers (adult tiger-striped orange cats are the best), a piece of fresh catnip, a piece of Polygonum striata, 50 grams of salt, 100 grams of dried fish, one Golden acorns are used as the base of the ceremony. Then, just choose the day of the full moon to eat the base of golden acorns.

Except for the golden acorns, everything else is extremely easy to find.

And golden acorns?

Although it is a secret material and its value is extremely high, it is nothing compared to the 'Moon Grass' required in [Oath of the Tower].

You must know that a complete 'moon grass' can be exchanged for at least ten golden acorns.

And the side effects of [Cat Orange]?

He will just become less picky about food, gain weight, and become slightly lethargic.

In Arthur's opinion, these side effects are almost nothing compared to the negative effects brought about by [Oath of the Tower] and [Rise of Blood].

‘Does convenience and applicability make Maodong so powerful? ’

‘Sure enough, being strong makes sense! ’

Arthur can fully imagine the heyday of the 'Cat Cave'.

Of course, [Cat Orange] also has shortcomings.

That’s feeding!

In order to ensure that it is a true orange cat whisker, you must personally raise an orange cat.

Then?

It’s just a long wait for the cat’s whiskers to fall off.

"Do you have a cat?"

Arthur rubbed his eyebrows and thought very seriously.

He has never raised small animals, which is a big challenge for him, especially since he needs to start from an adult cat in order to be more efficient.

As for the predecessor?

Raise spiders, centipedes and toads.

cat?

Like him, the breeding experience is 0.

'You must seek professional consultation. It would be better if there is a professional pet agency. ’

Arthur thought as he began to change his clothes.

From the memory of his predecessor, Arthur found a similar pet agency.

It was a cat pet shop opened on Garden Street. It was said to be very old and popular among people. In this era of South Los Angeles, cats were greatly loved and welcomed.

But even earlier, cats were considered ominous.

In fact, during the Holy Empire, when the last pope declared that cats were evil, especially black cats, which would bring disaster, cats encountered an unprecedented disaster.

Many cats are burned to death at birth.

Women who kept cats were considered witches and burned together.

Men who kept cats were considered wizards and were burned to death.

Even some newborn babies with eyes as bright and clear as cats will be considered to be unlucky and will not escape the punishment of fire.

In that era, people frantically held burnings under the will of the Holy Empire, just like a carnival.

People lifted the innocent woman's head, limbs, and torso above their heads like strings, and sang and danced around the burning house.

They loudly announced that this was to drive away evil spirits.

But in fact?

They created demons.

Also created the devil.

Every moment of every day, the flames continue to burn. The scorching flames are getting stronger and stronger, and the light is getting brighter and brighter. Everything seems to be purified.

But the stumps in the ashes were not reduced to ashes.

The black smoke above the light became thicker and thicker.

Purify?

Just wishful thinking.

In the thick black smoke, a plague named ‘Black’ appeared.

6 years!

The black plague ravaged the entire Holy Empire, plundering the lives of tens of millions of people, and shattering the seemingly unbreakable Holy Empire into pieces.

The Pope is dead.

Twenty-two cardinals died.

The Inquisition was littered with corpses.

Their corpses were completely black, just like the remains of their limbs in the ashes.

But at that time, no one cared about them anymore.

Nobles everywhere have once again regained their glory.

They put on the armor of their ancestors, raised their banners, shouted their family names, and ushered in a new era——

Silver Age!

At the beginning of this era, when the Holy Empire was still lingering on, all the nobles announced one thing: the cat was innocent.

Cats are not only not a disaster, but auspiciousness.

Because cats can catch mice.

However, the foolish behavior of the Holy Empire caused a large number of cats to die abnormally, and rats began to overrun, eventually bringing about the black plague.

And this became the last straw that crushed the Holy Empire.

Likewise, every noble, regardless of the size of their territory, began to raise cats.

The original purpose was to catch rats and put an end to the plague.

But as time goes by, after two hundred years of the Silver Age, cats have long since changed from simply catching mice to watching them.

His value has also skyrocketed.

According to the memory of my predecessor, there was once a cat in Inner Bay that was sold for a sky-high price of 20,000 gold tickets by nobles.

Of course, Arthur definitely doesn't need such an expensive cat.

All he needs is an ordinary tiger-striped orange cat.

It rained again in South Los Angeles in the afternoon.

Rainwater quickly pooled on the road.

Arthur stepped down from the public carriage, holding an umbrella in one hand and a medium's box in the other, holding 'Anna' in his arms, and walked quickly towards his destination.

Walking north from Huayuan Street into a flat block, Arthur found No. 17 Huayuan Street North.

He stood in front of the door and looked at the wooden sign hanging at the door.

Amanda Cat Friends Home (founded in 1552, 245 years ago)

The text at the front is written in normal way, the date at the back is changed into small cursive characters, and at the end of the signature is a pink cat paw print.

Through the field-shaped display window, Arthur could see cats playing one after another in the semi-enclosed room.

There is a carefree feeling.

Infected by this feeling, Arthur unconsciously raised the corners of his mouth.

While Arthur was still standing in front of the door, ready to take a closer look at the cat, an elderly lady had already opened the door from the inside.

"Do you need shelter from the rain?"

The other party was wearing a long black dress with no more decorations, her hair was already graying, and she had a warm smile on her face, making her look very approachable.

Arthur looked at each other in surprise.

You know, since carrying 'Anna' in his arms, no one has taken the initiative to say hello to him, no one has even taken the initiative to approach him.

"A person who can stop and smile for a cat, no matter how vicious he looks, is not a bad person."

As the elderly lady spoke, she turned sideways to invite Arthur.

Arthur, who came here just for the cats, would naturally not refuse.

He nodded kindly, and after saying hello, he went directly into the 'Amanda Cat Friends Home'.

Arthur felt warmth as soon as he entered the room.

"Cats don't like the cold."

"They love the sun and they also love small dried fish."

"Need something to drink?"

The old woman explained to Arthur with a smile, and then immediately added: "For ordinary drinks, they are free here."

The old woman pointed to the wall.

A menu hangs above it.

Coffee (free refill): 1so

Milk coffee: 1.2 pesos

Hot cocoa (water/milk): 80 cents/1 cent

Juice (currently apple, orange juice, pineapple): 50 cents

…

The price is not cheap. The same orange juice costs only 1 pesos at the mobile food stall in Eivor, but 5 pesos here.

5 times the difference!

Arthur was secretly surprised, but when he saw the cat isolated by a wooden fence, he had some understanding.

There is a special 'waiter' here, and it is understandable that it is a little more expensive.

"Plain water, thank you."

"Okay, guest, wait a moment."

As the old woman spoke, she walked to the drinks area aside, while Arthur carefully looked at the cats behind the wooden fence. He wanted to find a cat that fit the [Cat Orange] ritual.

However, there is none inside.

Immediately, Arthur was ready to ask the old woman.

At this moment, the doorbell rang, and another guest came to the 'Amanda Cat Friends Home'.

Three well-dressed young ladies walked in with their cats in their arms under a servant's umbrella. The moment one of the ladies saw Arthur, her eyes lit up.
