Little Priest's Cat Diary

Resistance is impossible to resist.

There are only more than 2 Hitaya people in total. Even if young men and women are all sharpshooters in the jungle, the number of people who can fight does not exceed [-].

With such a small number of people, it is almost impossible to fight against the hundreds of thousands of Podoyas troops.

Moreover, the living conditions of the Hitaya family are close to nature, with very few war reserves, and the territory is just a forest and a bay where there is no grass, which is completely different from the Portoyas army backed by an empire of millions of square kilometers.

What's more, for Mia, he doesn't want the two sides to fight.

So he considered from the very beginning that it would be best to settle the matter amicably.

That's not impossible.

First of all, the Hitaya people did not have the slightest desire to fight for hegemony. From the history of their tribe, they mostly counterattacked after the invasion of foreign enemies, and never took the initiative to attack others.

The only thing they want is to live and work in peace in the forest.

Furthermore, compared to the territory of nearly one million square kilometers of the Podoyas Empire, a primitive and ancient forest is nothing at all, and the Hittaya people with a population of only 2 will not cause them too much trouble .

In this way, as long as the Hitaya people expressed their willingness to join the Portoyas Empire, they would admit that the Hitaya Forest and the Gulf belonged to the empire.

Then he made a request, hoping that the empire could retain their unique culture of the Hitaya people, not interfere with the life of their clan, and let them continue to live in the big forest.

In that way, the tribe of the Hittayas was actually merged into the Portoyas Empire and became part of many of the nations.

Miya checked the development history of the Portoyas Empire in the past few years. In the past five years, the Portoyas Empire has been inclusive, integrated the cultural knowledge of all ethnic groups, and advocated equality among ethnic groups. This is the time when the culture explodes and develops.

It is not remarkable that such a small tribe as the Hittayas integrated into it.

Mia believes that with Sardis's heart, he will definitely agree to this matter.

Well, the problem is coming.

The Hitayas asked for peace talks with Emperor Sardis, and someone must go.

The priestess will certainly not go.

Since entrusting everything to Mia, she has been staying in the prayer room behind closed doors.

The patriarch of Hitaya is sick in bed at the moment, and other people... It is difficult for these Hitayas and Podoyas who have little contact with outsiders to talk to each other, let alone peace talks.

After much deliberation, it seems that Mia herself is the only person who can represent the Hittayas, understand the Portoyas, and ensure the conclusion of such peace talks.

So, that's the big problem with Mia.

Even if such a trivial matter, Sardis probably wouldn't come forward in person, but some of those generals would know him.

Although his complexion is paler and his figure is thinner than before because he has been sleeping at the bottom of the sea for five years, but as long as he is not blind, anyone who has seen him will definitely recognize the former Highness Shaoji at a glance.

Ever since, Mia thought about it, and finally came up with a solution.

Put yourself in a black wig and cover your face with a mask.

Let's just say that wearing a mask is the tradition of the Hitaya priests.

Presumably that's probably...maybe...maybe...can be fooled?

This evening, Mia was trying to put on these things.

Of course, it was all prepared by Fanaya for him.

He told Fanaya bluntly that he didn't want to show his true face in front of the Portoyas. Fanaya didn't ask much, and prepared a wig and mask for him according to his request.

Mia looked at the person in the mirror and thought in her heart that he should have learned the disguise technique from Sidir back then.

If he had learned that miraculous disguise technique, he wouldn't have to worry so much now.

Just as he thought of this, he suddenly and keenly noticed that there was an extra person in the room.

He turned sharply.

Then his eyes froze for a second.

This... I really want someone to come.

Mia felt dumbfounded for a moment.

Speaking of which, how did Sidir get in here?

By the way, he seemed to have heard Shiva muttering next to him in the afternoon, saying that he had captured a Podoyasian.

Is it Hidir?

……

But the key now is how he will hide his identity from Hidir.

Even though he was wearing a mask, Hidir would definitely hear him when he spoke.

Mia was still thinking quickly, but Xidir, who had failed to sneak in secretly, didn't feel much panic.

He looked at the boy in front of him.

The boy was dressed in a Hittaya costume, and his long black hair fell from his thin shoulders. The jet-black hair contrasted sharply with the silver-white mask on his face.

The skin on his body was abnormally pale, as if he had just recovered from a long illness.

Xidier thought, if he threatened such a sick and weak boy, it would be like bullying the weak, and he would be a little bit helpless.

However, this boy did not look like a servant of the temple either.

"Where is your priest?"

Shidir raised an eyebrow.

The handsome face was reflected in the firelight, and the little firelight showed intoxicating traces in his slightly raised peach eyes.

His voice was extremely soft, and it was pleasant to listen to, and the corners of his raised lips revealed a seductive smile.

The monster thief who is good at deceiving people's hearts is full of charm at that moment.

"I'm not a bad person, I just want to ask your priest about something."

Mia: "..."

Your coaxing tricks are useless to me!

Seeing the sickly boy standing still and not making a sound, as if he was frightened by him, Shidir tentatively took a step forward.

As he stepped forward, he said softly, "I will not hurt you, nor will I hurt your sacrifice..."

"who!"

Before Xidir finished speaking, he was interrupted by a loud shout from behind.

Almost at the same moment when those three characters were pronounced, the sound of the blade piercing through the air came from behind him.

He quickly turned sideways, avoiding the attack from behind.

The short sword passed by his side.

He leapt backwards.

The attacker did not take advantage of the victory to pursue, but stood in front of him and the boy.

It was a young Hitaya warrior. His bright eyes and awe-inspiring aura made it easy to be trifled with at a glance. He was obviously the best among Hitaya warriors.

Shidir blinked.

He did not pull out the dagger hidden in his boots, but raised his hands high, showing his empty hands to the other party, in order to express that he was not hostile.

At the same time, his mind was running fast.

Judging from the behavior of that fighter.

Protecting that boy's safety is more important than chasing after his own intruder.

It seems that the boy should be an important figure in the temple.

Judging by age, it is unlikely to be the current priest, so it is likely to be the chosen successor.

Maybe that mask is a symbol of their status—maybe the priests of the Hittaya have the tradition of wearing masks.

Sidir has traveled around the world and knows that some tribes have their own special traditions and customs, so he is not surprised by this.

"Are you the Portoyasian during the day?"

Fanaya kept Mia firmly behind him. Even if the young man opposite him opened his hands to express that he had nothing in his hands, his vigilance towards him still did not decrease at all.

"How did you escape from the tree prison?"

"Why sneak in there?"

Anger flashed in his eyes.

"Did the guards outside the prison be called by you—"

"Your two clansmen were just stunned by me, and they will wake up in a day."

"As I said just now, I have no malice towards you, and I have nothing to do with the Portoyas army."

Hidir groaned for a while, as if hesitating, but quickly continued.

"I came here because of the guidance given to me by the great Davia."

Fanaya showed a look of astonishment.

Sidir stared straight at Fanaya without blinking, with a frank expression.

"I hope to meet Priest Hitaya. There is one very important thing, and I want to get an answer from your priest."

He says,

"I'm willing to pay whatever price I have for it."

Fanaya frowned.

Not to mention that he didn't believe that sneaky guy said that he had nothing to do with the Portoyas army, but that he almost surprised Miya just now when he was not there, so he didn't have any good feelings for him.

If he hadn't come to urge Mia to go back to the room to rest, and happened to bump into her, I don't know what that person would do.

"Master Priest, is it that you, an outsider, just saw you..."

Before he could finish his drink to that person, he felt someone drag him behind him.

Then, a piece of paper was handed out from behind him and stretched out in front of him.

A few words were written on the paper.

Looking at the words on the paper, Fanaya frowned.

He turned his head to look at the young man behind him with a questioning look in his eyes.

The masked boy nodded slightly to him.

Fanaya hesitated for a moment, but followed Miya's words.

He said to Hidir: "The little priest said, it is not impossible for you to see the priest of my family, but there are conditions."

Due to the special period, the priestess did not relinquish her post as a priest, but she said that she would entrust the heavy responsibility to Mia, and then she stayed behind closed doors in the prayer room.

As a result, the Hitaya people didn't know how to call Mia for a while.

Later, it was Khiva who took the lead in addressing Mia as the young priest. Although it was a bit of a mouthful, it could be distinguished from the priest, and everyone called Mia that way.

Shidir's eyes lit up.

He didn't expect that he was so lucky that he would directly bump into the little priest of the Hittayas as soon as he sneaked into the temple.

He was about to say something, but he couldn't help being a little surprised when he saw that the little priest wrote something on the paper and handed it to the soldiers.

Was this little priest of the Hittayas actually dumb?

He thought so secretly in his heart.

He wouldn't be stupid enough to ask that sentence.

No matter what Shidir thought, Fanaya came over and tied Shidir's hands behind his back with a rope.

Xidir didn't resist, and let him be tied up honestly, with an appearance of 'I'm very obedient and well-behaved'.

That look of pretending to be a good baby made Mia laugh secretly.

He knew that no matter how tightly Fanaya was tied, it would be a piece of cake for this strange thief, and he could easily untie it.

"You stay here honestly."

said Fanaya, pushing Shidir into a nearby room.

He was still hesitating whether to ask some guards to watch, but Mia shook her head slightly at him.

Mia knew well that if Xidir wanted to run away, no one would be able to stop him.

And now that Xidir has something to ask the priestess, he will definitely stay there obediently, waiting to achieve his goal.

The night passed quietly.

Early the next morning, Mia summoned the elders of the Hittaya people to the temple and told them her thoughts.

He intends to let Hidir serve as a channel for the Hittayas and Podoyas to avoid unnecessary wars.

Regarding Mia's idea, the elders did not show any distaste, and did not raise any objections, except for being surprised at first.

Maybe the young people will be a little unwilling to lose without a fight, but the older ones know very well how weak the Hitayas are in front of the huge Podoyas Empire.

If you insist on resisting, it will be a disaster of genocide.

It is really unnecessary to fight a battle and admit defeat only after there are casualties.

There are not many people in Xitaya's tribe, and everyone is very precious.

And for the Hitaya people, their tribe is like a town in the final analysis, and there is no concept of family, country, and national righteousness.

Their most important belief is to protect the sea of ​​their sanctuary, which has been passed down from generation to generation.

As long as their way of life remains the same and the clansmen are not harmed, they don't care about being included in the Portoyas Empire in name.

So, in the evening of that day, Shidir was untied.

Fanaya told him that as long as he could successfully resolve the issue peacefully between the Podoyas army and the Hitayas, he would be given a chance to meet the priest.

When Hidir heard about the mission, he couldn't help being stunned.

To be honest, he didn't even think that the words he casually fooled a certain majesty not long ago would come true.

However, this result seems to be good.

As long as there is no war, he can stay in the Xita Ya tribe and slowly search for the truth he wants to know.

Thinking of this, Hidir patted his chest to indicate that he was on him, and then was blindfolded and sent out of the big forest.

Two days and two nights later, Hidir returned to the edge of the Great Hitaya Forest as agreed at the beginning.

Then, he was blindfolded and led into the center of the big forest.

Hidir actually wanted to say that it didn't matter if he was blindfolded or not, he already knew the direction.

But in order not to cause trouble, it was rare for him to do nothing. After seeing the dumb little priest and everyone, he conveyed the words well.

"What? Emperor Sardis asked to see all the children in our clan from one to five years old with his own eyes?"

Hidir's words made everyone look at each other, and they all felt that this request was really inexplicable.

Only the black-haired boy sitting behind the table clenched his fingers tightly after being startled for a moment.

On the face hidden under the silver-white mask, the eyelashes drooped, hiding the complex emotions in the eyes.
