"The cake tasted better?" Luigi repeated in a low voice. He suddenly realized something and looked up at Angor.
Angor also noticed Luigi's gaze.
They both saw the same thing in each other's eyes.
"So, it seems that the so-called 'unknown variable' really exists in the cooking of gourmet food?!" This was exactly what Angor and Luigi were thinking. However, it wasn't them who said this. It was the dog deacon.
Canine Deacon also heard Angor's explanation about Cat Ears and came up with the same conclusion as Angor's.
"Why don't you try cooking it once? Maybe you can see the difference?"
Angor was a little tempted by the dog deacon's offer. To see what exactly happened, he only needed to cook it once.
But after some consideration, Angor still refused. For the same reason as before, it was better to go back to his heart space just in case.
Since Angor could not see any other changes for now, and Cat Ears' anger did not affect him much, the others did not continue the topic after Angor voluntarily gave up.
However, the dog deacon didn't let go of Angor. It kept glancing at Angor's body.
Angor wouldn't mind if someone else was looking at him. But the dog deacon could read minds. When the dog kept looking at Angor, Angor's mind began to wander.
And this scene was also seen by Luigi.
But Luigi knew that since the dog deacon promised Laplace, it wouldn't use the skill on Angor. Luigi knew why the bird kept looking at Angor, and Luigi knew what it wanted to do.
"Don't think I don't know what you're thinking. You better stop thinking about asking Angor to help you." Luigi raised an eyebrow and blocked the dog deacon's view.
Luigi's words put the dog deacon in an awkward position. It also meant that the dog deacon was indeed thinking about how to ask for Angor's help.
"But if Little Red can do it, why can't I?" The dog deacon felt wronged. If it had a white flag in its hand, it would be waving it around already.
"Angor has a reason to help Little Red. But you don't have a reason to do it," said Luigi.
Dog Deacon: "Why wouldn't I have a reason?"
Luigi sneered. "Then tell me, what's your reason?"
Deacon Canine thought for a moment and stammered, "I'm a deacon after all. Important people often come to see me …"
Without waiting for the dog deacon to finish, Luigi interrupted, "Are you sure the big shot dares to meet you?"
Dog Deacon: "Even if the big shots don't come, their assistants will come. They also represent the big shots."
Luigi snorted and did not interrupt again. However, his eyes were full of disbelief, and he had an expression that said, "Let's see how you're going to make it up."
Dog Deacon: "If I wear the earrings and meet these big shots, I'll be embarrassed. Besides, even if it's not a big shot, if someone like Shipolov sees me wearing flower earrings, it will be very embarrassing for me. "
Shipolov, who was suddenly called out by the dog deacon, immediately raised his hand and said, "I, I swear in the name of the Flame of Heart that I will never tell anyone!"
After hearing this, the dog deacon's eyes flashed with satisfaction. He originally wanted to use this opportunity to warn Shipolov. He was very satisfied that Shipolov was so obedient.
However, Shipolov was Shipolov. When the dog deacon looked at Luigi again, his eyes became aggrieved again.
Luigi completely ignored his expression and said casually, "Those earrings are not something that you have to wear. If someone comes to see you, you can just take them off yourself."
"You don't usually leave the House of Everything, and you don't wear the earrings everywhere. You don't have to worry about other people's gazes."
Dog Deacon's expression turned bitter. "But … this will also embarrass you."
"You also know the relationship between us. If I embarrass myself, won't I embarrass you too?"
Dog Deacon secretly pointed out that they were both from the same time. Although they had parted ways now, they used to be very close.
However, Luigi did not buy it at all. He still replied with an indifferent expression, "Others don't know about my relationship with you. What does your humiliation have to do with me? Besides, I'm very happy to see you being humiliated."
Dog Deacon felt helpless when Luigi was being so stubborn.
Just as the canine deacon was racking his brain to find a new reason to refute Luigi, Luigi spoke first. "I don't care what reason you have. Even if this reason really requires you to change the appearance of the login device, I only have one thing to say to you …"
"If you want to change, wait until the device is sold and buy yourself a new one."
Luigi raised an eyebrow. "Don't tell me you don't have enough money to buy one?"
Dog Deacon did not know what else to say. It was obvious that Luigi had made up his mind. The dog deacon could only sneak a glance at Luigi, hoping that the young man would help him.
However, a small interlude happened that made him completely ignore the dog deacon's gaze.
The interlude was quite simple. Little Red put on the Cat Ear Recorder, showed off in front of a mirror, and excitedly prepared to test its effect.
In order to give Little Red a better experience, Angor taught the bird what to do and what to avoid in the Dream Crystal.
Angor explained everything in detail, including how to deal with the immortal domain and how to deal with it.
He also emphasized the motto "Go offline if you can't solve the problem".
However, when he was almost done, he suddenly sensed something inside his bracelet. One of Hydland's tentacles broke the bracelet's space and appeared outside.
Hydland quickly retracted the tentacle, but a flash of purple light still attracted Angor's attention.
Instinctively, he reached his spirit feelers into the bracelet to see what was going on.
As soon as his spirit feelers entered the space, he saw Hydland waiting nearby. Under Angor's puzzled gaze, Hydland floated to a cage covered by a black cloth.
The purple tentacle gently lifted a corner of the cloth.
A small mouse with a terrified expression appeared in front of them.
Without a doubt, it was Nakbi.
Nakbi had been running around in the seller's place without resting. He was already tired from all the exertion, and when he saw the curse-like spiral pattern on the fruit, he fainted.
He had been unconscious for four hours.
Now, he finally woke up.
However, the first thing he saw was the purple Hydland floating in the air. This was the first time he saw a "snot monster" in his life, and he screamed in fear.
That was probably why Headland Cinema was disturbed, so it released its tentacles to attract Angor's attention and lured him inside.
"I see. Thank you for the reminder." Angor reached out his spirit feelers and touched Hydland to show his gratitude.
Hydra didn't say anything, but Angor could tell that the creature was feeling a bit happy.
Hydland must have noticed Angor's gratitude too.
Hydland floated back to its "home" and continued watching the movie. Meanwhile, Angor lifted the rat cage and took it out of his bracelet.
All of this happened in just a few seconds.
No one noticed Angor's movement. Only Little Red noticed that Angor paused for two seconds. But soon, Angor regained his composure. When he did, a cage covered by a cloth was placed on the table.
Little Red's original focus was still on the login device, but the appearance of the cage instantly attracted her attention.
Luigi, Laplace, Shipolov, and the dog deacon all looked at the cage.
Shipolov and the dog deacon didn't know what was going on, but they knew that Angor wouldn't just take out a cage for no reason. There must be something fishy going on inside.
As for Luigi and Laplace, although they were a little surprised, they immediately thought of the reason when they saw the cage. "Nakbi is awake?"
Angor nodded to Laplace. "Yes. I just saw it."
While speaking, Angor removed the black cloth covering the cage.
As the black cloth disappeared, everyone saw the frightened little mouse inside the cage … Nakbi.
Nakbi just got scared by Hydland. It took a while for it to calm down after being covered by the cloth. But now, it was scared again.
It began to run around in the cage.
"Is that … an inventor rat?" The dog deacon observed Nakbi and named it. "It looks like Pi Feifei. But I don't think Pi Feifei would do something like this."
"It looks like Pi Feifei. Maybe it's her descendant?"
The dog deacon looked at Luigi and tried to get an answer from him. But Luigi didn't even look at the dog deacon. Instead, he said to Angor, "You better stay away from it."
"Huh?"
Luigi stretched out his finger and pointed at Nakbi who was about to pee in the cage. "Can't you see that you've scared it …"
"It's just new here. Don't worry. It'll recover soon."
Luigi shook his head. "No. You scared it."
Luigi walked to Angor, picked up the cage, and placed it about ten meters away from Angor. Then, he used his body to block Nakbi's view.
Nakbi slowly stopped moving and squatted at a corner of the cage, panting heavily.
The effect was immediate.
Angor, who was watching from afar, did not know what to say.
"What's going on?" Little Red, the dog deacon, and Shipolov all looked at Angor in bewilderment. They thought the rat was frightened by the strange environment. But it turned out that it was scared by Angor.
Did Angor do something terrible to it? How did he do that?
Luigi sighed and pointed at Angor's cat ears. "Looks like the new ears didn't just change the taste of the cake. They also made the rodents more intimidating."
Angor also realized what Luigi was talking about.
He also thought of the deterrence of cat ears on the Inventor Mouse. This had actually happened before.
However, Angor couldn't see the cat ears on his head. Besides, the ears were just an illusion, so they didn't have much of a presence. Angor always ignored the pair of cat ears.
He didn't think about Nakbi's fear of them at all.
"So it's afraid of cat ears. I'm wearing cat ears too. Will it be scared of me? "Little Red, who was using the dumb cat ear recorder, asked.
Little Red's eyes glowed when she learned about Nakbi's fear of cat ears. She also put on an innocent and cunning look.
"You'll know if it's scared of you when you try."
Although Little Red was the one who suggested it, he still wanted to know whether Nakobei was afraid of his cat ears or all the cat ears on his head.
With Angor's permission, Little Red quietly approached the cage and moved into Nakbi's blind spot.
After making sure Nakbi was no longer panting, Little Red giggled and jumped to the front of the cage.
A large face instantly appeared in Nakbi's sight.
Nakbi's expression froze. His entire body stiffened as he laid down in the cage.
Seeing this, Lil 'Red was stunned for a moment. He was somewhat at a loss as he asked, "It, it was scared to death by me?"
Luigi glanced at Nakbi and shook his head. "No, it's playing dead."
Sure enough, when Luigi pointed out that Nakbi was pretending to be dead, its stiff body softened tentatively. In the end, it turned over and curled up in the corner, shivering.
Little Red instinctively wanted to get closer to observe, but as Little Red moved closer, Nakbi's trembling became more obvious.
"So it's scared of you too," said Luigi. "It's afraid of everything related to cats. You're wearing cat ears, so it's afraid of you too."
"I'll take them off and try again."
Without hesitation, Little Red removed the dumb hair's cat ear recorder and put it aside. She then reached out her hand and tried to touch Nakbi through the cage.
This time, Nakbi didn't try to dodge. Little Red easily touched Nakbi's soft, milky white fur.
Even though Nakbi still looked terrified and was trembling, he was in a much better state compared to when he was running around in the cage.
Luigi rubbed his chin. "Yes, it's afraid of cats. But I think Little Red is still scared of Angor even if it's wearing cat ears."
Even if Nakbi pretended to be dead before Little Red, it could still come back to life once it was exposed.
But when it came to Angor, it really tried to run away with all its might.
It was probably because the cat ears on Angor's head were completely connected to his aura.
Little Red's cat ears were only a facade.
