Little Priest's Cat Diary

Along the way, Mia ruthlessly held down the bad-tempered Persian cat, finally keeping Sardis out of trouble.

After more than half an hour of swaying on the middle-aged merchant's ride, the group of them finally arrived at their destination.

The Royal City of Portoyas.

Because the middle-aged traders were worried about getting into trouble, they made an agreement with Mia from the beginning that they would only be sent outside the city and not brought into the city.

The carriage stopped on the side of the road outside the city and let them get off.

It was rare for Sardis not to be a demon, standing there with a dazed expression and dull eyes.

The main reason was that the carriage was so dilapidated that it didn't even have a cushion. The whole journey made him feel like he was shaking, and his mind was even more dizzy, and he couldn't recover for a while.

Not to mention, his current appearance really gives people the feeling that there is something wrong with his brain.

Therefore, when saying goodbye, the boy who sympathized with what happened to them secretly gave them a pack of dry food.

A piece of hard brown bread.

very hard.

really hard.

Mia squeezed it, and then began to think about who would break the bricks in a round.

Forget it, talk is better than nothing.

After all, it is a free gift, so you can't ask too much.

Mia sorted it out in her heart.

Current progress: I have passed the level of drowning at the bottom of the sea and returned to the royal city. At the same time, I have initially established a "friendly" relationship with someone.

Current goal: to bring the Golden Retriever Persian cat home.

Obtained items: Black bread as hard as bricks.

Well, so far, he's been walking steadily, step by step.

Praising herself from the bottom of her heart, Mia turned around and looked at the city behind her.

The Royal City of Portoyas is a city built on both land and sea.

Legend has it that the city is protected and loved by the god of the sea.

It is one of the most prosperous and prosperous cities on this continent.

At this moment, he was standing in front of this royal city that had stood on the earth for thousands of years and was still glorious. The first thing he saw was the huge canal surrounding the city.

It's so big.

He couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

In this day and age, I don't know how such a large canal was dug out.

It must be an extremely large and long-lasting project.

At this moment, he was standing far away outside the city, and as long as he raised his head, he could see the huge three-sided obelisk standing above the ground in the middle of the royal city.

This obelisk, which has been standing between the sky and the earth since thousands of years ago, rises from the ground like a huge sword and goes straight into the sky.

It is as high as 40 meters, and the spire is made of pure gold, shining in the sun.

At a glance, it seems that the splendor of light is gathered on the spire, shining on this city with an ancient and long-standing civilization.

With this giant obelisk as the center, the buildings of Portoyas King City present concentric circles and spread out in a ring shape.

Three circular canals surround the city, separating the entire royal city into several districts.Among them, the outermost ring-shaped canal leading directly to the open sea is the longest and widest, with a width of [-] meters, which can accommodate countless ships.

It was still afternoon at this moment, and in this spectacular circular canal, countless boats were constantly coming and going in the canal, just like the bustling crowds on the street.

The reason why Portoyas King City is called the Pearl of the Ocean is not only that it is a city protected by the God of the Sea, but also because it is extremely prosperous on the sea and is a must-pass for merchant ships from all over the world.

During the day, the crowds are constantly flowing, and only at night when the citizens descend into the city gate and fall into a dream, can the city get a little tranquility.

There were so many people of all kinds, men, women, young and old, so it was very inconspicuous for two teenagers in old linen cloaks to walk among them.

Perhaps it was because he was in a bad mood because he suffered a loss in the carriage, Sardis has been silent since just now, unwilling to talk to Mia, obviously sulking.

He lowered his head, his soft blond hair protruding from the hood, as delicate as velvet, making people want to lick it just by looking at it.

The two of them were walking along the huge and wide bridge over the canal in the outer city to the huge city gate ahead. There were too many people coming and going.

At this moment, Sardis couldn't care less about getting into trouble with Mia anymore, he frowned tightly, and watched from the corner of his eye those people who obviously belonged to the lower classes passed by him at a very close distance, My heart repulsed endlessly.

He really didn't want to be in contact with these people, and had been trying his best to avoid them.

Suddenly, a large group of people rushed from the front, almost covering the wide bridge deck to the brim.The crowd rushed over like this, and Sardis really couldn't avoid it, and was squeezed into the crowd depressed.

It wasn't until this large wave of people passed that he let out a heavy breath.

Almost out of habit, he turned his head and wanted to complain to Mia beside him.

But when he turned around, his heart skipped a beat.

There is no one around him.

There were people coming and going, and he was the only one standing there.

Mia was separated from him in the crowded crowd just now.

Sardis was a little flustered.

Although he didn't like Mia's behavior of threatening him with violence at every turn, even he was very dissatisfied with Mia, and he always thought fiercely in his heart that he would take revenge when he returned to the mansion——

However, although he has a bad temper, he is not stupid, nor is he ignorant.

In fact, he knew very well in his heart that without Mia, he had no idea what to do and how to go home when he left the mansion for the first time.

If there is no Mia, he is no different from a blind man.

Moreover, along the way, although Mia was always cruel to him, she actually took care of him all the time.

Before he knew it, he had gotten used to relying on each other.

He would habitually complain to Mia about his dissatisfaction.

He will habitually listen to Mia teaching him.

He will habitually follow Mia.

He will habitually... depend on him.

An indescribable sense of panic rose from the bottom of his heart, Sardis turned and ran in the direction he came from, looking around while running, trying to find that familiar figure.

The crowd was bustling, and he ran back and forth on the wide bridge at a loss, but he couldn't find Mia.

Slowly, his heart sank endlessly.

Sardis stopped and stood in the center of the bridge, looking around blankly.

There are people coming and going around me, but everyone seems unreal.

Everyone is so strange, he doesn't know anyone, and no one pays attention to him.

……

In a daze, he suddenly remembered his childhood.

At that time, when he was still very young, he stumbled after his father and mother, reaching out his hand to their backs, and he who could not speak wailed, hoping that they could turn around.

He stepped on his little feet and chased after it, it seems that he has been chasing for a long time...

But in the end, he still watched the backs of those two people disappear before his eyes.

No matter how much he shouted and chased, the two men never once turned their heads, and never once took the little child's hand that was stretched out to them expectantly.

…………

He suddenly didn't want to continue looking for Mia.

He thought, maybe Mia didn't get separated from him at all, but felt that he was cumbersome a long time ago, and felt that taking him to the king's city was the best of humanity, so she deliberately left him while there were many people.

Mia might have left a long time ago...Leave him alone, far away from his trouble, no matter how hard he looks for it, it will be in vain.

Sardis stood on the bridge, the scorching sun shone down from the sky, making the surroundings extremely bright.

There are many people coming and going around me, but it seems like there is nothing.

It was empty in all directions, and he was the only one standing here.

He seems to be the only one in the world who is so abrupt, out of tune with this world and everything in the world.

He thought, even if he disappeared here at this moment, maybe no one would find out.

In this world, it seems that his existence has never been needed.

…………

Suddenly, a hand came out from behind.

Grabbed his wrist.

Sardis' heart skipped a beat.

In a trance, he actually had the illusion that the hand that grabbed him pulled him back from the empty world of a person to the bustling world—connecting him with this world.

He looked back.

What met his gaze was the eyes of the boy he thought had left him.

His blue eyes were like the color of the endless ocean he saw when he woke up in the morning.

He found him.

In the vast sea of ​​people.

The young man's hand held his hand, the young man's eyes looked into his eyes, and his shadow was clearly reflected in the eager eyes.

There is nothing but him in the blue pupil at this moment.

Only him.

His heart beat again inexplicably, and the strange beating made him panic.

Whether it was the sudden throbbing in his heart or the unfamiliar heat on his wrist, he was not used to it.

This strange feeling that he had never had before made him instinctively want to resist.

As soon as Sardis raised his hand, he slammed Mia's hand open.

But as soon as he opened it, when his wrist lost the strength that was holding him tightly, he suddenly felt a little regretful.

He vaguely felt that his behavior seemed bad, but he didn't know why it was bad.

Because he never knew what was right and what was wrong with what he did, no one ever told him.It's like he slapped Mia last night, he didn't think there was anything wrong with that, he has always been like this.

But now that he opened Mia's hand, it was obviously not as heavy as the slap he had yesterday, but he had a vague feeling...it seemed...that he shouldn't do this.

Sardis stood there in a daze, not moving or making a sound.

He was obviously flustered in his heart, but he didn't know what to do, so he could only stare at Mia, and subconsciously bit his lower lip.

His delicate lips were bitten red, and his eyelashes were extremely long and thick, like soft feathers, making people itchy to touch them just looking at them.

The light-colored soft eyelashes were dyed with fine fragments of sunlight falling into the pair of beautiful heterochromatic pupils, refracting a jewel-like rose-colored luster.

He just bit his lip and looked at Miya with his eyes.

He stared helplessly, but didn't speak.

That appearance, Mia looked very much like the one he raised before, which obviously bit the furniture and scratched people and did a lot of bad things, but he still refused to admit his mistakes, stubbornly holding his little head up and staring innocently. Your eyes are wronged and unwilling to look at you, the kitten that makes you unable to teach me a lesson no matter what.

Well, the one in front of me is a particularly precious and delicate Persian cat.

What else can I do?

Forgive him.

Although Mia was angry and anxious when she couldn't find anyone just now, but thinking about it now, it wasn't Sardis' fault that the two were pushed away by the crowd.

He who had just arrived and Sardis who had gone out for the first time were basically the same. The two people who knew nothing about the outside world recklessly looked for a way to go home.

More or less it can be regarded as sympathy.

"I am not angry."

Looking at the strange-colored pupils staring eagerly at her, Mia softened her expression and said to Sardis.

"There are a lot of people here, and if you are not careful, you will be squeezed out. We all have to be careful."

As Mia spoke, she turned and walked forward, but just after taking two steps, he seemed to remember something, stopped and turned around again.

"Here, hold my hand."

He held out his hand to Sardis.

"That way we won't get separated."

Be quiet for a while.

"……Oh."

Sardis hummed in a low voice, and grabbed the hand stretched out in front of him.

He raised his other hand and pulled the hood of his coat down a little so that more of his face was hidden.

He pulled the hood with one hand, lowered his head and asked in a low voice, "You won't leave me, will you?"

"Don't worry, I won't abandon you."

Mia replied with a very firm tone.

He thought to himself, in a sense, you are my life, and it is impossible to leave you alone.

"Then... it's an appointment?"

"Yeah, it's an appointment."

Mia, who only cared about exploring the way, walked forward while holding Sardis' hand, while casually coping with it and nodded.

The corners of Sardis's lips raised inaudibly. As he walked forward, he lowered his eyes, and his eyes fell on the hands of the two.

He has never done this with anyone before, and he just feels very uncomfortable and awkward.

but……

It's a strange feeling that the temperature that doesn't belong to me is transmitted from other people's skin, but there is also a subtle sense of peace of mind.

He looked at the two hands clasped together, thinking silently.

Although Mia did a lot of unforgivable things to him, but because of his achievement of sending him home, he should be more generous and not retaliate against him harshly.

No, no.

Although he didn't intend to take revenge too harshly, he still had to pay back what he did to himself.

For example, the punch he gave himself.

For another example, he also wants to whip him with a branch.

Also, twist his waist too.

The vengeful Persian cat happily imagined the scene when he turned himself over and became the owner in the future.

By the way, I have to take off his clothes!
