"Xie Wen, sweetie~ Those Celestial Dragons are here again, meow~"
(=ω=)
While the Reverie was in full swing, Shalmeow, who had been snuggling in Xie Wen's arms, suddenly straightened up and gently pawed at his chin.
"So let them come. Isn't this exactly what we expected?"
Xie Wen first answered quite casually, then caught on...
"Wait, did you say 'those'?"
There was actually no need for Shalmeow to answer his question, because the very next second, a large procession led by Saint Charlos and his father, Saint Rosward, charged into the square.
Besides the father and son and the slaves they were riding, Saint Rosward's daughter Shalria was also with them, along with several Celestial Dragons Xie Wen did not recognize at all and their respective slaves.
And these Celestial Dragons had brought not only slaves, but also quite a few black-suited members of Cipher Pol.
"Heh heh heh! Bring me that gigantic mermaid! Never mind that Mjosgard!"
Sitting on the back of a new slave, Saint Charlos pointed at Shirahoshi and shouted excitedly.
Beside him, his younger sister Shalria also ordered, "And those adorable kitties! Catch them for me too!"
"Stop, all of you! You bastards!"
Saint Mjosgard shouted angrily and frantically for them to stop, but urged on by their masters, the slaves all ignored his orders and continued closing in on Shirahoshi, Xie Wen, and the others.
Unlike CP Agents, slaves were the Celestial Dragons' "private property." When two Celestial Dragons clashed, their own masters naturally took priority. Besides, these Celestial Dragons frequently used their slaves to fight one another for entertainment.
But after Queen Otohime had changed his ways, Saint Mjosgard had stopped keeping slaves, so in this situation, he simply could not stop such a large group of slaves who would not obey his orders.
