"Wait, meow! Wait! "
Angor's voice made the girl stop and turn around.
Angor and Luigi quickly exchanged a look when they saw the girl's face.
Angor stopped her not only because she was here to accept a quest, but also because he saw the girl's face from the side and noticed that her mask looked a little special.
It looked like a fox mask with runes drawn all over it?
When Angor and Luigi saw the mask on the woman's face, they were sure that it was the mask of a red fox.
Foxes belonged to the canine family.
"Cat … Big Brother Cat? Are you calling Little Red? " The little girl looked at Angor with her clear eyes through the holes of her mask.
Little Red? That's her name? At the same time, he thought about another creature called "Little Red". The skeleton behind Flora's back in the Nightmare Domain was also called Little Red.
What a lame name.
Then he remembered what the little girl called him … "Kitty Bro?"
Was it because he had cat ears on his head? Or was he meowing unconsciously again?
Angor asked Luigi through their Spirit Bond and got an affirmative answer. When he asked the girl to wait, he did "meow".
"…" Angor felt his face burning for some reason.
"Just think of it as a habit," Angor mumbled in his mind. It was normal for wizards to have pet names. As long as he didn't feel embarrassed, no one could make him feel awkward.
Besides, meowing wasn't a bad thing.
Perhaps this was the reason why the little girl was willing to stop?
"I'm not Big Brother Cat. You can call me Angor …" Angor explained with a smile.
"What's Angor? Big Brother Cat? " The girl tilted her head. Her eyes were not only clear, but also a little … naivety that matched her age.
Angor considered for a moment. "Fine. Call me whatever you want. Okay. "
Angor used his Beyonder Perception to observe the girl's eyes. He was almost certain that she was a "real" child. Or maybe she was just an "empty mind".
Anyway, her age and body size matched.
There was no need to argue with a little girl like this. Besides, calling her "Big Brother Cat" didn't sound bad. "Is your name Little Red?" Angor let go of his obsession and asked.
The little girl nodded. "Yes, everyone calls me Little Red … Brother Kitty, you smell so good. I smell like cake." "
She moved closer to Angor and took a deep breath as if she just smelled a creamy cake. Her eyes were filled with the unique yearning of a child.
"???" Cake aroma?
Angor looked at Luigi and Laplace, who both shook their heads at him. They didn't smell any fragrance.
He looked at Little Red in confusion. Did she smell it wrong? Or could it be that the so-called "cake" was actually some kind of reference?
The girl who called herself Little Red suddenly mumbled to herself, "I want cake too. But Doggie Bro said my teeth will break if I eat cake again. I can't eat it. "
He was still paying attention to the so-called "cake aroma", but when he heard Little Red mention "puppy brother", he quickly looked up.
"Who's this Doggie Bro you're talking about?" Angor's voice suddenly softened. Luigi also took out his harp and began plucking at the strings. The soothing notes calmed Little Red down.
"That's Doggie Bro," Little Red replied. Little Red answered subconsciously. But as she answered, she seemed to have thought of something and suddenly shouted, "Oh no, the exhibition is about to start." Doggie Bro told me to go back as soon as possible. We can't waste time here. " "Okay."
Little Red was about to turn around.
She turned around and left. "Wait." Angor stopped her again.
Little Red still looked anxious, but she still stopped. "Is there anything else, Brother Kitty?" "Okay."
Angor didn't ask any unnecessary questions this time. He went straight to the point. "Do you know Dog Deacon?" "Okay."
In the narrow passage, Lil 'Red led the way, hopping with each step.
Angor and the others followed behind her in silence.
"Is it really that simple?" They didn't say anything on the surface, but Luigi kept asking through the Spirit Bond.
When Angor mentioned Dog Deacon earlier, Little Red nodded without hesitation and told him that "Doggie Bro" was the Dog Deacon.
Angor considered for a moment and asked again, "Can we meet Dog Deacon?" Angor hit a straight ball. He was worried that Little Red wouldn't understand if he asked too tactfully.
Little Red nodded without hesitation. "Sure. Little Red will take Kitty Bro to Doggy Bro Bro. "Okay."
That was why they were talking about this.
Little Red seemed to be in a good mood all the way, like a child who wanted to introduce a new friend to their parents.
Luigi, on the other hand, was confused. Did Little Red really agree that easily?
According to Luigi's plan, Little Red should at least talk to Dog Deacon first. While Little Red was talking to Dog Deacon, Laplace could show up. As long as Dog Deacon saw Laplace, it wouldn't refuse to meet him.
That was Luigi's plan.
Little Red skipped the step of asking the dog overseer and directly brought them to see the dog overseer. This made Luigi very confused.
"Maybe she's too young to think about this?" Little Red asked.
Through his Beyonder Perception, he was sure that Little Red always had a pure and sincere heart. Angor was curious about why Little Red agreed so quickly, but he didn't think too much about it.
"That's possible. But I think she's not that naive since she's wearing an investigator's uniform. Little Red asked.
Luigi hesitated and decided to ask Little Red himself.
"Little Red, are you sure it's okay to take us to Dog Deacon?" Little Red looked at Luigi in confusion. "Why would it be a problem? Little Red asked.
Luigi said, "What I mean is, shouldn't you inform the dog deacon in advance? Won't Dog Deacon blame you if you take us there without telling him first? Little Red asked.
Little Red tilted her head. "Doggie Bro won't blame me. Everyone is afraid of meeting Doggie Bro. He'll be happy if someone wants to meet him. Little Red asked.
"Besides, Little Red knows that you're good people. Little Red likes good people, and so does Doggie Bro. "Alright."
Lil 'Red's answer was very simple, so much so that it was naive. But after thinking about it carefully, this answer did indeed point to the crux of the problem.
Dog Deacon's special talent of seeing through people's minds could be used silently regardless of their strength. Even the powerful Mirror Dragon was easily seen through. No defense could stop the dog's gaze.
This was why Guthalais didn't want to come to the House of Everything. She didn't want Dog Deacon to see through her thoughts. It was also because of this talent that all the creatures in the Mirror Domain feared that very few creatures were willing to meet the Dog Deacon of their own accord.
Little Red said that "everyone is afraid of meeting Doggie Bro". Because of this fact, people who were willing to meet Dog Deacon wouldn't be rejected.
Luigi agreed with this answer as well. However, Little Red's "good people" sounded a bit unreliable.
"How do you know we're good people?" Luigi purposely put on a serious expression. "Maybe we're bad people? Besides, good and bad can't be defined so easily. "
Little Red completely ignored Luigi's expression. Or rather, she didn't even look at Luigi. She continued, "Little Red likes Kitty, so Brother Kitty.
I'm a good person. "
"…" That's a good reason.
Little Red continued, "Brother Harp and Big Sister Hair have the same smell as Doggie Bro, so they're good people too. "
"You're all good people. Doggie Bro won't reject you. "
Little Red's answer still carried a hint of naivety that matched her age. Or rather, she sounded a bit childish. However, her simple words seemed to contain a lot of hidden meanings.
Instead of asking more questions, Luigi spoke through the Spirit Bond, "I think she has some special ability too." Luigi, Canine Deacon, and Laplace, if one were to investigate further, they were indeed of the same origin.
However, no one could tell that they were from the same origin before today. Little Red didn't say that they were from the same origin, but she was implying that they were from the same origin. Just from the so-called "smell," they were grouped together. In Luigi's opinion, this was most likely some kind of special ability.
"I can't tell if it's an ability or not, but it's strange." It was Glepnir who spoke. Through Mental Synchronization, Laplace simulated Glepnir's voice in the Spirit Bond.
"Personally, I think her ability has something to do with 'smell'," Luigi said. "Oh, right …"
Luigi suddenly looked at Angor. "She said you smell like cake. Maybe it's a special metaphor? "
The smell of cake? Angor didn't pay much attention to it before. Now that Luigi mentioned it, he realized it did have some hidden meaning.
"She said two things about you. First, it's your cat. Second, it's the smell of cake." Glepnir said, "You can look at the two together." "Huh?"
"Together?" Angor suddenly thought of something. "You mean she's talking about Wicked Witch's Blessing?" His "cat" trait came from the side effect of Witch's Eye's Blessing spell.
The so-called "smell of cake" was related to food. The effect of the Blessing Spell he obtained was the bonus he got when he was making delicacies.
Therefore, when looking at the two together, the answer was: the effect of Wicked Witch's Blessing.
Luigi also showed a thoughtful look. "Now that I think about it, I think all of the traits she mentioned are related to Wicked Witch's Blessing. Could it be that she could smell or sense a deeper aura? "Yes."
If that was the case, it made sense that Luigi, Laplace, and Canine Deacon all came from the same source. From Luigi's point of view, this ability was probably on the same level as Canine Deacon's Mind Reading ability.
This was because none of them noticed that Little Red had used her ability.
She was able to break through Laplace's shell without making a sound. If this was the result of her ability, then her level must be quite high. But then again, if Little Red really had such a powerful ability, why was she still an investigator? Did the people in the Omniscient House not notice her? Or was someone protecting her on purpose?
Luigi's mind began to wander, and he began to imagine a great drama. However, as soon as the curtain of this drama rose, it was interrupted by reality.
In front of this twisting tunnel, a clear light appeared. They had reached the exit.
Just like the previous tunnels, this one also had the effect of "Distance Reduction". However, the tunnels he went through before were not long, so he was able to exit them in a blink of an eye.
But this time, the tunnel Little Red led him through took him three minutes.
If they were to calculate based on the distance, the distance they had traveled in these three minutes was probably more than a few dozen miles.
Still, he found it hard to believe that the interior of the Omniscient House could expand so much. Also, it was unrealistic for the Omniscient House to expand into several winding tunnels.
Therefore, the space barrier they went through this time was much thicker.
In other words, the Canine Deacon's House was located in the deepest part of the Omniscient House. If they had to look for it on their own, they would have a hard time.
Luckily, they met Little Red.
Following Little Red's lead,
They finally reached the exit.
Unlike the other exits, this one was not hidden by walls. Instead, it was a "roof" door.
There was a long signboard above the door. A line of words was written in the Mirror Language, which meant "Canine Deacon's House".
The door had no bars. Instead, it was covered by half a curtain. On the curtain, there were footprints of plum blossoms, as well as the outline of a dog's head. Through the gap under the curtain, Angor could see the bright light inside, as well as the smooth wooden floor.
Combined with the other details, this must be the Canine Deacon's house. As he thought about it, Little Red already began to yell, "Brother Doggy!"
Following Little Red's call, they heard rhythmic footsteps coming from inside the house, as well as the faint barking of a dog.
However, the footsteps and barking soon stopped.
"Outsiders?" A clear murmur sounded from the inner room.
Following that, the rhythmic "Da Da Da" turned into the sound of heavy footsteps as he walked towards the door.
Not long after, a pair of shiny leather shoes appeared under the curtain.
