The pill lay before her.
An exotic fragrance wafted into her nose.
Just one sniff made the magic power throughout Yan Hua's body suddenly grow livelier. Her eyes lit up at once. Even without knowing what it was, she knew eating it would do her a world of good. For a moment, all the magic power in her body clamored for it.
Yet she did not immediately accept the kindness of the beautiful fox spirit opposite her.
She had not been in this world long. Apart from Qian Zi'ang, whom she had met at the beginning, and the ordinary wizards in town, everyone she had encountered today—the thin wizard on the street holding a thick Wooden Book, the black cat beside her, and the fox spirit sitting in this office—gave her a powerful instinctive feeling that she could be reduced to ashes at any moment.
That was why she had remained sufficiently obedient and docile all the way from the street to this room.
She had also very clearly "stood" behind the black cat—because the thin wizard on the street had simply left, while the black cat had brought her to this office. Besides, it was not as though she could not understand their conversation. Clearly, the black cat held considerable status in this world. As a newcomer, when it was time to latch onto a powerful protector, she absolutely could not hesitate or waver.
So, even though the pill had her mouth watering,
she did not accept it right away.
Instead, she first turned her head and glanced at the black cat.
The black cat blinked, drew its chin in slightly, and gave a rather reserved twitch of its ears. The Little White Person immediately reached out with both hands, eager to accept the pill the fox spirit offered.
