"...At your request, I went to the deepest part of the Cat Tail Route and drew out the Star Cluster Cat Lamp, Cat Dehaila. Along the way, I unexpectedly discovered something that needs to be handed over to you."
Lilith spoke without expression.
To those she did not know well, she was like a robot—utterly impervious to reason or emotion.
"Any extra gains, without exception, are to be turned over for you to handle."
Ovi stroked Cat Dehaila's fur, looking thoroughly comfortable.
Then she let go, stared at Lilith, and tugged up one corner of her mouth.
"I thought I'd already made that clear. Or has something happened that even I could not foresee?"
Jiang Han was delighted to hear that.
Heh... there were plenty of things you couldn't foresee.
As a luck-based contender, Lilith had once slapped the saying "luck-based contenders don't get far" right in the face. Her good fortune was among the greatest in witch history.
After all, whether it was her combat record or external mission performance, Lin Zhaojun's completion rate far surpassed Lilith's. Yet the Great Witch of the nation was Lilith, not the stronger Lin Zhaojun. That was luck, plain and simple.
Thud, thud, thud!
Heavy footsteps approached, accompanied by a "Meowrraow!"
Jiang Han saw Lilith's expression change drastically.
Dragon Ragdoll immediately and instinctively cast a petrified body and an impact-resistant protective barrier, then turned around!
With a meowrraow, Ovi darted behind Jiang Han, perfectly demonstrating just how unreliable a frightened big cat could be.
Jiang Han looked toward the source of the sound. The first thing she saw was an enormous ball of fluff, and dazzling ash-silver cat fur!
A cat blob roughly twice the size of an ordinary Giant Cat Lamp slammed into Dragon Ragdoll with a bang.
Crack, crack!
