A black cat suddenly spoke, and Paimon exclaimed in surprise.

【???:“Oh my, are you so flattered to see me?”】

Paimon: "I've just never seen a talking animal before..."

【???:“How rude of you, you're a talking animal too.”】

Paimon: "Paimon isn't an animal!"

The two bantering makes the readers laugh, and that's exactly what we need – more of this kind of content! This is the kind of 'spot-fading essence' we need.

Last time, we treated your divine cherry blossom purification ritual as a sign of inner darkness; now, you'd better be more radiant.

The cat in the story calls herself "Shinko," and she deliberately leaves footprints to guide humans there.

She remarked that the traveler was the smart one; those two clueless adventurers only knew how to stare at the rocks and didn't follow her directions.

In real life, Da You and Yue Zi smiled wryly. The book was brought by Ying Mei. They wanted to look at the 'guide,' but they didn't expect to see themselves being criticized by the cat.

When Yingmei explored Daoqi on Qinglai Island, she had already opened an anchor point, but she hadn't explored it thoroughly, so she arrived very quickly.

In the book, the girl says she can tell the traveler what the strange stone is, but in return, the traveler has to do her a favor.

She asked the travelers to help her repair the donation box because she believed that this would encourage people to donate money and restore the shrine's vibrancy.

As a cat, Neko didn't know why the shrine had become so dilapidated. She was clearly working very hard as the acting shrine master, so why was no one coming?

The shrine was too dilapidated and the donation box was broken, which was why no one came to visit. Her magic power was not enough to take human form and repair the shrine, so she could only watch the shrine decline day by day.

As the acting priestess, she felt she was inadequate, but thankfully the travelers came and helped repair the shrine.

The girl thought to herself, "I've taken such good care of the shrine, and even fixed the donation box. Now, humans will surely come to worship, right?"

'Ah-Xiang will be happy to see the lively shrine when he comes back.'

And so she guarded an abandoned shrine for Asase Hibiki, a shrine that no one would ever visit again, waiting for 'Hibiki' to return.

As a cat demon, she couldn't understand the issue of human lifespan. In her opinion, Ah Xiang was only leaving temporarily and would return later.

She just hoped that when Hibiki returned, he wouldn't be disappointed to see the dilapidated shrine.

Hibiki, Asase Shrine. When readers see this Asase Shrine, they immediately think of Hibiki Asase, the shrine maiden who used to serve the Fox Prince. There must be a connection, right?

Neko calls herself the "Deputy Priestess of Asase Shrine," and theoretically, she should be similar to Yae no Miko, both being "Deputy Priestesses" after the original priest leaves.

Yae no Miko knew that the former priest would not return, so she went from acting priest to priest, while Neko was still hoping that the priest of Asase Shrine would return.

Moreover, the mortal is not like the divine child. She is just a little demon who does not understand human affairs and has limited magical power. It is already troublesome for her to speak human language, let alone transform into human form.

Once the traveler had repaired the donation box, Qinzi was satisfied and told the traveler about the stone.

There are four piles of stones on Qinglai Island, which were used to seal a very, very large bird.

Liu Yun: How dare you! Which big bird are you?

This large bird does not refer to Liuyun Zhenjun, but to the Thunder Bird—Kappachiri.

"She actually did something like this in the end... Sigh, I failed to teach her properly. It seems I have no right to comment on her."

Chapter 274 The Bedchamber is the Acting Palace Master

Shadow knew that the big bird the girl was talking about was Kapachiri. Although Shadow killed her, she couldn't make her 'completely dead'.

Although it looks like a bird, Capachiri is very similar to an elemental dragon and is very difficult to kill.

In the end, they could only seal away the remaining power of Capachili to prevent it from harming Qinglai Island.

It has always been the case that Inazuma is like this: powerful creatures cannot be sealed directly, so they are killed first and then their residual power is sealed.

After all, not everyone is like Zhongli, who even knows a little about sealing techniques.

Ying Dan is skilled in martial arts, but not so much in other magical arts; in this respect, he might not be as good as Lin Qiu.

Some of my subordinates do know how, but they're not quite up to the task of directly sealing demon gods and powerful elemental creatures. They'll have to kill them first and then seal them.

Everything was fine at first, but then... for some reason, the seal was broken, and almost all the people and demons who knew the sealing technique died.

In the end, both Qinglai Island and Bayun Island became disaster sites, and the people on the islands had no choice but to leave their homes.

The Zhenshi (镇石) was originally used by Qinglai Island to seal the residual power of the Thunderbird.

The traveler in the story told Daiyu and Yuezi about his experience. Daiyu was very excited because he loves cats and really wanted to see a talking cat.

Yuezi was much calmer, saying that they should deal with the sealing issue first, and it would be fine to deal with it later.

Having understood the function of the Zhenshi (a type of stone used to suppress negative energy), Dayou's research finally had a direction, and he and Yuezi gradually figured out how to use the Zhenshi.

After learning how to use the sealing stone, the traveler began his own sealing journey.

Yingmei is ready to fight! While fighting, she also seals the seal. Lin Qiu wrote down the decryption process for Yingmei, using it as a strategy guide.

After completing the final seal, the Traveler single-handedly defeated Raiin Quanxian, and after eliminating the opponent, the thunderstorm was effectively sealed and bound.

However, the story is not over yet. Afterwards, the traveler returned to Asase Shrine to find a place to stay.

[Neko: "It was you! Not long after you fixed the donation box, two green-clad humans came to the shrine. It really worked!"]

"However, that tall, green human got very excited after hearing me speak. Humans really make a fuss over nothing."

The dormitory resident said that this money box is a great thing. People have been putting money in it as soon as it was repaired. If more of these are repaired, won't it become popular immediately?

Fortunately, the traveler stopped the absurd idea of ​​the shrine and chose a more practical solution—cleaning the shrine.

In reality, it wouldn't make a difference no matter what we did, because there was practically no one left on Qinglai Island.

But to appease the guests, the travelers still helped clean up a bit.

The cleaning that Qinzi understood was to use a long, thorny stick to gather the leaves together, sprinkle some water, and then use a crisscrossing metal plate to snap the branches.

Dormitory used to love chasing after long sticks, but she can't anymore because she's the 'Acting Palace Master' and can't do such indecent things.

She used to be just a cat, spending her days eating, sleeping, chasing long sticks, and rolling around in piles of fallen leaves.

But now she is the 'acting palace priest' and must maintain a proper image, so she can only watch the little ones rolling around in the pile of fallen leaves.

Let's wait for Ah Xiang to come back. When Ah Xiang comes back, she can lie back in Ah Xiang's arms and make love and sleep in his 'bedroom'.

After the traveler finished his work, the girl said that she was tired from talking to people and needed to rest, and asked the traveler to come see her again tomorrow.

The traveler came again the next day, and not only her, but also the two green-clad humans.

Qinzi noticed that the two green-clad humans seemed quite interested in the wooden frame, and then she remembered that people who came to worship used to play with the wood after giving money.

Since humans like to play, will humans come if this wooden frame is repaired?

She can't fix things with the paw pads on her claws, so she has to ask the traveler for help again.

The travelers naturally wouldn't refuse, since they had already considered the dormitory as a friend.

Moreover, this allows Ying to 'slack off' and take a break during her adventure.

After repairing the ema stand, the traveler went to inform the two green-clad men and asked them to come and hang the ema.

The girl was overjoyed to see this. Would these two tell the other humans about it? Then even more people would come, right?

Will this get back to A-Xiang? If he knows I'm waiting for her, will he come back?

[The traveler asked: "Why did you rebuild the shrine?"]

[Neko: "Meow, why...? Because I'm the acting priestess of this shrine, and I have to take good care of it."]

"Also, if Hibiki comes back and sees the shrine in such a dilapidated state, she'll definitely be sad..."

Readers are already starting to feel sad; why is it always this kind of waiting that's destined to never come again?

At first, I thought I could enjoy watching the cats being cute, and I was even happy. But based on our experience with reading prophetic books, I know things will definitely get tough later on.

Qiu Cheng, that's enough! Stop talking about lifespan!

A few days later in the story, the traveler visited Seirai Island and then came to Asase Shrine.

The traveler arrived at just the right time, as Neko was worried about not being able to find the furry children at the shrine.

Although there aren't many people on Qinglai Island, there are Hilichurls there, so it's very dangerous outside.

The shrine is protected by torii gates, preventing ordinary monsters from entering, but the area outside the shrine is not so safe.

The woman asked the traveler to help her find 'Kombu Maru' and 'Hachiboku'.

The traveler asked about the two cats' unusual names out of curiosity.

Neko said that Kombu Maru is a name that Hibiki usually says. Neko doesn't know what it is, but Hibiki is happy when he says it, so it must be a good thing.

The cats like to use nice things to name their kittens, and this name is passed down from generation to generation. When one generation dies, the name is passed on to the next generation.

This generation's Kombumaru is a good boy who likes to sleep in high places.

As for the eight treasures, they like to eat fish, so they are very likely to live by the sea.

The traveler began searching for the cat, and after finding it, he even started mimicking the cat's language.

[Traveler: "Meow, meow..."]

Lin Qiu stirred things up by drawing a cat-eared Yingmei in the illustration for this segment.

Readers commented that the general is truly a pillar of the court, and this move has really boosted the morale of the army!

Anyway, it's not certain whether the kitten heard Yingmei's kitten talk, but the kitten obediently ran into Yingmei's arms and rubbed against places it shouldn't have.

Both kittens did the same, instantly slipping into Yingmei's arms without any resistance.

It's probably because the succubus attribute of the extraterrestrials also works on animals, and the two kittens couldn't resist Yingmei's 'innate catnip body'.

"So cute, just like my goddess when she was little. Oh, I really wish my goddess could turn back so I could pet her again."

Chapter 275 The Dormitory is a Cat

Yingmei brought the two kittens back, and the matriarch of the dormitory scolded the kittens while thanking Yingmei.

A few days later, the traveler returned.

This time, the shrine guest asked the traveler to cook the food the cats like, because the little guys at the shrine haven't been eating well lately.

The traveler went to Kinan Ryotei in Inazuma Castle for help. The owner said she could do it and was very interested in the talking cat.

Although Qinglai Island is deserted, it might become a popular tourist destination because of the dormitories, since the danger of thunderstorms has been sealed off by travelers.

A few days after the traveler cooked for the girl, she visited Asase Shrine again.

That day, Neko wanted to have a stone statue made in the shrine that looked just like herself.

Because Ah Xiang told her that there were many fox statues on a very, very far island, and she wanted to make a cat statue for her roommate in the future.

In Qinzi's opinion, what Axiang wants is good, so she wants to make it and see.

Since the traveler doesn't know how to carve stone, he can only rely on his extensive network of connections.

After some inquiries, the traveler actually found a human who could do stone carving—Oshima Junpei.

The traveler brought the 'stone human' back to Qinglai Island and made 'stone cats' for the bedchamber.

[The girl in the bedroom: "How could something as hard as a rock turn into my likeness? Is that rock human very powerful? Does he know magic?"]

Readers were both amused and exasperated. How could a monster claim that humans possessed demonic arts? This was utterly contrary to the natural order.

[Traveler: "It's amazing, just like cooking."]

[The maidservant: "I see, I understand now."]

"The food you and Ah Xiang make is delicious, therefore, the stones made by the Stone Humans are also delicious."

The dormitory staff praised everyone, saying, "Cat is good."
