Master Sage is still working hard on lesson preparation today

"Just wait here for a while, we will bring you the most popular set menu in this restaurant." After she finished speaking, she left.

"I thought I was ordering by myself, but I didn't expect to be able to order like some restaurants."

Anna was lying on the table. At this moment, she didn't have much strength at all. She had been shopping all morning and bought so many things. She hadn't eaten until now, and she didn't want to move anymore.

"After all, it's free~ Although I know that everyone is not short of money, you should learn to save a little bit. Forgot how you spent the past few months in the academy?"

"Got it~"

On the contrary, Liya has received a lot of coupons before, why don't you go to have an afternoon tea later?

Mia propped her chin while thinking, feeling that she needs to re-plan after coming here.

"Hey, look, there is actually a portrait hanging in the room." Elvira and the others found a portrait hanging on the wall behind Mia in their room.

"Isn't it just a portrait? What's so interesting about it?"

Mia glanced at it as soon as she turned her head, but then her face sank.

The person in that portrait shouldn't be Scully, right?

Mia looked at the reactions of the others, and seemed a little shocked.

"Although I have known for a long time that the current royal family of the orc tribe is also a cat tribe, but after seeing it with my own eyes, I really confirmed the identity of Miss Scully."

Liya is still looking at the portrait carefully, it should be Scully.Then she is also the manager of this restaurant?

They could see that smile every day when they were part-time workers.

Is it too late to leave now?

Mia got up and walked to the door, opened the door, but was thrown to the ground by a figure as soon as she entered.

"Wow~ I didn't expect us to be so destined, Mia-chan. We met again in less than a month after we left~"

Scully held Mia in her arms, and greeted the others.

"Hi, how are you doing these days?"

The front desk lady also rushed over at this moment, looking at Scully in surprise.

"The store manager! Why did you come back at this time? You didn't even notify us."

Seeing Scully's appearance, Yuna behind her is still carrying a lot of luggage, and they should have just arrived here.

"Let your sister tell you these words, and let me stay with my cuties for a while." Finally, everyone gathered around and chatted while eating.

"It turns out that this is the case. This event is not a fake. It was indeed held today, but I didn't expect you to meet Mia-chan when you came here. It seems that there is an indescribable fate between us."

"Shouldn't it be because you deliberately concealed your identity? I didn't expect that you are still the royal family of the orcs, and there is a restaurant here."

Mia also felt very helpless, but she didn't expect to meet Scully in the end.

"You're wrong, there are many families. But I usually just like to stay at the academy. I'm just a member of the royal family who can only wander around. I have neither the strength to protect myself nor the power."

Everyone knows that Scully is a very ordinary orc. Although she doesn't have a spirit beast unique to the orc, she seems to have a very special ability.

"However, I'm still very surprised. I didn't expect Miss Scully's business ability to be so powerful."

"It's just that I know more friends, it's not something to show off. Compared with you, what I do is not worth mentioning."

Scully also told everyone about her situation. She also just returned to Satsuma this afternoon. She was just about to go back to the palace to meet her sister after eating here. She didn't expect to hear the clerk say that there are a group of lucky people today. Travelers fell in love with her activities.

As soon as she heard that she was a passenger, Scully had a very special feeling, and she took the initiative to walk to the room where Mia and the others were.

"That's the way it is. I didn't expect it to be such a coincidence." Scully hugged the others again, and she treated everyone with enthusiasm.

"Oh, I've never met these two. Doesn't Mia sauce count as an introduction to me?"

Scully walked up to Elvira and Phil, and introduced herself again.

The two of them also introduced themselves in the same way.

"I didn't expect that the girls around Mia are not easy~"

Scully took a meaningful look at Mia, and her eyes were right.

"Yes, is it?" Mia lowered her head, she no longer wanted to meet Scully's eyes.

Fortunately, this place is a beastman tribe, so she shouldn't expose her dark history, right?

"By the way, I still have a coffee shop here, do you guys want to go to my place..."

"No, thank you." ×4.We don't want to work with you anymore~

It's acceptable to work part-time in the college, at least the students can keep each other's secrets, but it's not necessarily the case here.

Scully was also very hurt after hearing this sentence, and said sadly while lying on the ground.

"I just want to invite you to have a cup of afternoon tea there, and then let others take you to visit the more famous attractions here."

"..."

Are they really thinking too much?

At that moment, Mia felt that Scully smiled.

"Don't worry, as long as you are still here for a day, I will never let you feel bored."

Scully did one of her signature moves, putting her hands on her head like a real cat scratching her head, her tail wagging behind her.

Indeed, without the guidance of a local, Mia and the others really don't know where to go to play, and Mia still has her own affairs to deal with. With Scully, it seems that she can indeed leave alone for a while, right?

After thinking carefully for a while, Mia decided to agree.

But when she realized it, they were already on the carriage to the coffee shop.

"Hey! I haven't agreed yet!"

"But we agreed~" While Mia was thinking, Scully had already given other people some conditions that were difficult to refuse.

"Then let's enjoy this trip happily~" After Scully finished speaking, everyone officially started their trip in the orc clan~

……

[-]. A vague history

"We have reached our destination."

Scarlett sent the luggage back to the palace in advance, and she herself came to chat with Mia and the others for a while.

When everyone stopped at the door of Scully's afternoon tea shop, they were all shocked by the pictures in the shop.

It's even hotter than the ones at the academy!

And the waiters here are not wearing cat ear headdresses, but real cat people!Of course, there are other orcs working in it too.

The seats are basically full. Do people here like to drink afternoon tea?

Scully took Mia and the others to a more private place on the second floor.

This is a place specially used to receive distinguished guests and needs to be booked in advance.

"Okay, let's wait here for a while. My people will bring up the refreshments and tea."

Scully sat on a chair, looking at the lively neighborhood outside the window with a contented expression.

Going around and going around, I still came back here.

Others were also leaning against the window, carefully observing the scenery outside the window, almost a large part of the city could be seen from here.

After all, it is only a shop that provides afternoon tea, so it is not built very high.

"How's the scenery here? If you still want to take in the scenery of the whole city, I can take you to the highest watchtower in the palace."

Scully looked at them directly opposite, located in the center of the imperial city, a watchtower that was much taller than the surrounding buildings stood there.

There is also a huge clock on the watchtower, which will ring three times every hour.

that clock...

Mia squinted her eyes and observed carefully. Although she couldn't see clearly from a long distance, Mia still found that the clock had many similarities with the pocket watch in her hand.

"Miss Scully, has that clock been around for a long time?"

"Ah? You mean the one on the watchtower?"

Scully was a little surprised why Mia was interested in that thing.

"Ah."

Looking at Mia's very serious eyes, Scully had no choice but to tell the news she knew.

"No, it's just an imitation. The origin of that clock has disappeared in our records. We only know that it has a special meaning for us orcs. Whenever it is damaged , someone will replace it with a new one.”

Scully reckoned that the clock above should have been changed not long ago, right?It wasn't like this when she left before.

"Is that really the clock in the palace?"

"No, it's not. The real clock was taken by a group of cunning guys, and it's far away from the capital of the orc tribe."

far away?take away?What do you mean, is there a split relationship between the orcs?

"I seem to have heard some news about the Beastmen. It is said that the Foxmen had some disputes with your catmen, so they left the territory of the Beastmen and chose a small island, right?"

Everyone was listening to the conversation between the two, and at this time Liya also asked curiously.

"Yes. However, it is actually a bit wrong to call the Beastmen all the time. Let me tell you some real history about the Beastmen."

The Beastman Clan is just the collective name for all Beastmen in the mainland. In fact, as early as the third era, different Beastmans were divided. However, in order to protect their respective territories, the leaders of each wanted to decide to temporarily unite. a leader.

At this time, a cat-human girl led two rabbit-human tribes to stand up, and they were accompanied by a blood tribe and two elves.

That cat-human girl doesn't have any strength, not even a spirit beast, but she has a very powerful ability - prophecy.She can know in advance of any situation that is not good for them, and let all orcs take precautions.

As a result, the Beastman Federation was officially born. Because the fox people had a very close relationship with those girls, they became an auxiliary existence of the Federation.

After resisting the invasion of the abyss together and solving the problems between the various races, they also disappeared strangely.

No one knows where they went, but the relationship between the Beastman Federation was determined in this way.

Until... not long after modern times, the leader of the cat-human tribe and the leader of the fox-human tribe had a disagreement, and the fox-human tribe voluntarily withdrew from the federation.

"This history..." Everyone was recalling what Scully said just now.

"It's very interesting, no one has ever mentioned it, even when we were in class, we didn't hear the lecturer mention it."

Except for Scully, everyone present seemed to have never heard of this history. It stands to reason that as long as it is about the survival of the mainland, it should be recorded in detail.

"No. There must be records. It's just strange. I have studied that period of history carefully. But everyone at that time seemed to have lost their memory, and there were very few records. But it is undeniable that it did exist Yes. You should have been in contact with it, but the impression is not deep."

Scully did not expect that they would be interested in this vague history, and this history she told was found in a very secret place in the library of their palace.

"It should be the cat-human girl. Since she has the ability to prophesy, it should be easy to tamper with or delete everyone's memory, right?"

Elvira is also very interested in this topic, prophecy?This should be an ability that only exists as a concept in the book. Anyway, no one with this ability has ever appeared on the current mainland.

Instead, Mia and Phil fell into deep thought. Maybe in the eyes of ordinary people, this is a piece of history in the past. No matter what they do, they can't trace the truth, but the ability to predict is actually feasible.

"I don't know about this either. However, the group of cunning foxes are the most hateful. They were the ones who managed the orcs together with us at the beginning. Fortunately, they have found a small island to live in seclusion! If this spirit sacrificial ceremony Seeing them, I have to treat them well."

Scully said this with a gloomy expression.

During this period of time, due to the peaceful situation in the mainland, many orc leaders proposed to split off.

While everyone was enjoying their afternoon tea, a maid hurriedly entered the room from the outside, said a few words in Scully's ear, and left first.

After hearing her words, Scully's face changed slightly, but it was not noticed by others.

"It seems that I can't continue to accompany you today, and there are still some things that I need to deal with."

Scully stood up, ready to leave.But when she walked to the door, she remembered something again.

Looking at Mia and his party, he said again.

"My little story today is not for nothing~ After I finish my work, I will come to collect the debt~"

Sure enough... It's really hard to take advantage of Scully.

"Since Miss Scully has already left, why don't we go shopping again? I see there are performances on the street."

Anna pointed to a small square where a lot of people gathered, and there seemed to be a temporary stage set up for performances.

No one else had any objections, so they left.

When walking on the road, Mia looked a little absent-minded. She was still a little curious about the history that Scully told. It seemed necessary to get the history book that Scully said.
